REWARD OF WAITING.
BY WILLIE f. ABOR.

If patience brings upon its wings
The blessed balm of healing.
And soothes the soul when DER it roll
The restless waves of feeling,
Oh at ttis hour I need its power
To check the fever spinning,
With fresheued force along its course,
My soul to passion winning.
If one could find contented mind,
All ready for the asking,
If one could feel for wo or veal
That faces need no masking,
We'd not let slip between the lip
The words there's no recalling,
We'd only ask consent to bask
Where peace is ever falling
If there's shrine where heart of NINE
Can find the needed treasure,
0 may win the blessed in
Its purest, amplest measure {; l- .
My restless thought by patience taught
Shall then. its zeal abating,
Lie on the breast of perfect rest,
And win REWARD OF WAITING.

THE STATE POLICE BILL.

The features of this bill are worse
than we supposed.
1t erects the person called Governor
into petty despot, and authorizes him
to superintend the local affairs of the
people. He is to.be styled the Com
mander-in- Chief of the Police-a new
title.
The Boards of Commissioners are to
constitute "a Court Martial" (Hear it,
gentlemen of the military profession,
and they are to be governed as far as
practicable by the rules and regulations
Of the army.
The use of violence towards any COM
missioner, officer or member of this
force unjustifably, when in the discharge
of his duty. or to use t0rards him abn-
size or threatening language, is. made
punishable by Imprisonment for two
years, Or by fine Of $1,000. This force
is to be mounted and armed. The de-
sign of the authors of this bill is appa-
rent, and we do not believe they can en-
force such law if they succeed in pass
ing it. If the white people of Louisiana
We're to suffer such law as this to 60
into operation, they would not only be
slaves, but they would prove that they
are fit to be slaves.
