SUNDAY MORNING, MAY "a, 1868.
Contributed TO the New Orleans Crsscenil
The Weeping Willow.


'om the Manuscripts Of the Late Hon Franklin sswye
Willow, yet thou standest fast,
Winding not the stOutest blast,
Strong and fiexile TO the last.
Sweltered oft the school-boy where
MONDAY beams were wont to glare
Ere thy shade was quivering there.
Well scan the lapse OF time,
Since the beauty Of thy prime
Glowed amid the autumnsl rime;
And ! trembled lest the spring
Meier again TO thee should bring
Warmth and shelter in its wing.
Joyed like a very child
When the summer came, and smiled
On thy leaflets all so Wild
Twig on twig shot up apace,
Strength Of limb and beauty's grace,
Peerless chieftain Of thy race
Hopeful, as the years went by,
Thee marked with rapturous eye
Climbing brayely to the sky;
And at last / come TO pay
Homage sweet in simple lay
To thy manhood's opening day.
Pendants sweeping to my head,
From thy sinewy arms are spread,
through thy jewelled leaves the beam
Flashes swift its meteor-gleam,
Fitful as the spirits dream.
Storms against thy trunk may break
Lightnings merry with thee Make
Earth around thee crack and quake;
Yet, thy rugged form shall rise
Where the wing'd tornado flies,
And the snow-cloud wells the skies.
Art thou, willow, gnarled and grayg
Zephyrs yet, like breath Of Nav,
In Thy tresses fondly play;
And thy tremulOus fingers move,
Answering TO the voice Of love
Like a cadence from above.
Named thou art the weeping tree
Yet, the name Is not for thee,
Willow, WITH the heart OF glee
Meep'st thou ever, tits TO know
Gems Of beauty do not glow
Always on the sunniest brow!
We're It that a shade OF gloom
Hung upon thee like doom,
Bending only to the tomb,
Joyous life would pass thee by;
And the very birds wOuld fly
From thy everything sigh!
FROM thy branches ne'er would swing
Nest Of oriole, when the spring
Touched anew her golden wing;
At thy feet would drOop the flowers,
As, amid the murmuring showers,
Dirges timed thy mournful hours!
False, TO call thee tree of grief,
When there's joy in every leaf.
Thou Of joyous trees the chief!
All about thee life is sweet
Where the fir and lilac meet
Redbreast yellow.warblers greet.
Willow, thine the strength to bear
Tests the oak may never dare,
Though it proudly cleave the air;
Thine the grace of fexile limb,
Dancing to the tempest's within
Singing out thy merriest hymn.
Man, be like the willow; So
With thy years thy heart shall grow,
Strong TO dare its deadliest foe
On thy brow serene shall light
Grateful spirits in their fight
To their homes beyond the night

The Great Man.
BY OWEN MEREDITH.

That man is great, and he alone,
Who serves greatness not his own,
For neither praise nor pelf;
Content TO know and be unknown;
Whole IN himself.
Strong is that man, he only strong,
To whose well-ordered will belong,
For service and delight,
All powers that, in the face Of Wong,
Establish Right.
And free he is. and only he,
Who, from his tyTant passions free,
By Fortune undismsyed,
Hath power upon himself TO be
By himself obeyed.
II such a man there be, where'er
Beneath the sun and moon he fare,
He canhot fare amiss,
Great Nature hath him In her care;
Her cause is his.
Who holds by everlasting law,
Which neither chance nor change can flaw I;
Whose steadfast course is one
With whatsoever forces draw
The ages on.
III sucn man there be, Where'er
Beneath the sun and moon he fare,
He doth not fare alone.
He goeth grit with cohorts, powers,
The monarch of his msnful hours,
Whose minds his throne.
he owes no homage to the sun;
There's nothing he need seek or shun:
All things are his by right;
He IL his own posterity;
His future in himself doth lie;
His souls his light.
Lord Of lofty life is he,
LOftily living, though he be
or lowly birth though poor,
He lacks not wealth, nor high degree
In state obscure.
The merely great are, all In all,
No more that what the merely small
Esteem them. Mans opinion
Neither conferred, nor can recall,
This mans dominion.

JUDGE JOSIAH FISK.

1t will be seen by the present and two
previous numbers of the REPUBLICAN that
Judge Josiah Fisk is the regular Radical
Republican candidate for the Office of Judge
of the second judicial district, comprised of
the parishes of Jefferson, St. Bernard, and
Plaquemines and that Gideon G. Fisk ia the
candidate for district attorney.
Judge Fisk was residing in Texas at the
time Of secession, and earnestly opposed the
same. In consequence of that opposition.
and his refusal to take the oath of allie
glance to the Confederacy, his house was
surrounded by an armed force at midnight,
and he was taken from bed and from his
family before the provost marshal, on a
charge of disloyalty to the Confederacy.
Alter being under arrest two months he
managed to make his escape, and after
hiding and wandering in the woods and
swamps Of Texas and Louisiana for
six months he arrived in New Orleans.
He was elected by the workinging mems
national union league as delegate to the
free state general committee, Of which T.
j. Durant was president.
The first speech published in New Orleans
in favor of abolishing slavery was made by
Judge Fisk. After advocating the course
OF the colored race until their liberty was
secured, he went to Washington to advo-
cate their enfranchisement He was the
only delegate from New Orleans at the eau.
Gus held at Senator Summers room, when
1t was agreed that the Radical Republican
party would strive to give the c0lored peo-
pie the right to vote.

TIE DEAREST IArAGE.

I've wandered through the golden lands
Where Art and Beauty blended shine
Where features limned by painters hands
Beam from the canvas made divine,
And many god in marble stands,
With soul in every breathing line;
And forms the world has treasured long
Within me touched the source of syne.
Yet, brighter than those radiant he'.hs
Which won renown that neve die
Where more than mortal beauty b. IA
In sibyls' lips and angels eyes,
One image, like the moonlight, q sms
Between them and my heart tc Else,
And in its brighter, desrer ay,
The stars of Genius fade away.
