The Burial of Moses


The Burial of Moses.*
81 -
IeArd he buried him in a valley in the
land of Moab, over against Bethpeor, but
no man knoweth of his sepulchre unto this
day."-Deut. xxxiy. g.
BY Nebo's lonely mountain,
On this side Jurdan's wave,
In a vale in the land of Moab,
There lies a lonely grave.
And no man dug that sepulchre,
And no man saw 1t e'er;
For the angels of God upturned the sod
And laid the dead man there.
That was the grandest funeral
h ever passed on earth;
But no man heard the trampling
Or saw the train go forth.
Noiselessly as the daylight
Comes when the night is done,
And the crimson streak on oceans cheek
Grows into the great sum-
Noiselessly as the ~spring-time
Her crown of verdure waves,
And all the trees on all the hills
Open their thousand leaves
So without sound of music
- Or voice of them that wept,
Silently down from the mountain crown
20 The great procession swept.
Perchance the bald old eagle
o. On gray Bethpeor's height,
u Out Of his rocky eyry
Looked on the wondrous sight.
Perchance the lion stalking
Still shuns that hallowed spot,
For beast and bird nave seen and heard
ThatIwhich man knoEeth moi.
< But when the warrior dieth,
n. s:His comrades in the war
- With arms reversed and unified drum
Follow the funeral car.
-HThe5 show the banners taken, -
.F.;,F They tell his battles won,
And after him lead his masterless steed
While peak the minute gun.
C3G Amid the noblest of the land
vosa Menlay the sage to rest,
And give the bard an honored place
With costly marble dressed.

Where lights like glories fall,
And the choir sings and the organ rings,

THE PROPOSED EDITORIAL ASSOCIATION

The Charleston Neps argues at length upon the
propriety of such IN organization at this time.
Its general conclusion is adverse to the PROPOSE
ton. On some points, we do not agree with our
csiempOrary, but there is no occasion to prolong
the discussion, since the Barnwell Journal is will
ling 10 swaiHe the matter for the present." and as
that paper originated the idea, we presume that
the fraternity at large will drop the subject. We
desire, however, to be placed right upon the record
In noticing the suggestion of the Journal, we of
fered our "dissent from the proposition to estab-
lish uniform rates for subscription and Advertising
for the reason. that one paper is worth more than
asother, and that. advertising regulates itself by
the circulation and influence of each newspaper" ;"
at the same time, we announced our readiness to
meet the members of the press on any convenient
occasion, to discuss these and! other questions.
That is our position now, and whenever the press
Of the State shall agree to hold meeting it will
be our pleasure to attend, if possible. Such a
convention, i'll its social aspect alone, would be
worth attending, and might result protably to the
ysrious members.

notice appeared in the Phenir several weeks
ago, with reference to the appointment of officers
under an Act passed by the Legislative body lately
in session, in which o typographical error occur
rcd-thc words general satiJdction" not being
italicized to convey the idea that the expression
was used ironically. The omission was detected
shortly after the publication of the paper; but it
was deemed unimportant, as it was thought the
people Of the State were cognizant, from past ex-
pcrience, of the position it occupied 1t ap-
pears, however that such was not the case and
several parties have evinced disposition not only
10 carp at the article hnt to reflect unfavorably
upon the paper. Without going further into de-
tail we simply assert that neither the course of
the paper nor the opinions of the editor, with ref

BEER, BEER, BEER

THE Commissioner of Agriculture, in his report
for the year 1865, speaks as follows:
"There can be no doubt of the general adultera-
ton of all malt liquors. In England and other
countries, where heavy penalties are imposed, and
an increasing vigilance practiced to detect and
punish such frauds, by system of inspection OF
all malt liquors manufactured before exposed to
sale, the practice is very common. How much
more in this country, where there are no laws on
the subject and officer to carefully analyze the
products of the brewery? Some years ago, Pro-
fessor Mapes, of New York, analyzed the beer
from q dozen different breweries, and all were
found adulterated with noxious substances. 1t is
said that the sale of drugs to brewers, is profit
able part of the trade This is perfectly infamous.
Cocculus indicus, (hsh-berry,) nux vomica, (dog-
button, from which strychnine is obtained,) are
some of the delectabie substances found in beer.
These are potent poisons, and the brewer found
using them should be drowned at once in one of
his own yats. The Dritish Parliament passed o
law to prevent this nefarious business. The fol-
lowing is an extract: No druggist. vender of or
dealer in drugs, or chemist, or any other person,
shall sell or deliver to any licensed brewer, dealer
in or retailer in beer, knowing hem to be such, or
shall sell or deliver to any person on account Of,
or in trust for, any such brewer, dealer, or retail
er any liquor called by the name Of or sold for
coloring from whatever the material the same nfaJ
be made; or any material or preparation other
than unground brown malt for the dsrkcning the
color of worts beer, or any moaEses, vitro honey,
quassia, coccuus indicus, grains of paradise,
Guinea pepper, or opium, or any extract or pre-
paraion of mclasses, or any article oY preparation
to be used in wors or beer for or as substitute
for malt or hops; and if any druggist shall offend
in any Of these particulars, such preparation, &C.,
shall be forfeited, and may be seized by any officer
excise, and the person so offending shall forfeit
five hundred pounds
"Undcr this law, very many druggists and
brewers were brought to grief, and yet the practice
continues. Unless the American people are ready
to admit she Immaculate purity and innocence of
American brewers, they Hfust be content, while
drinking their beer, to cherish The belief that they
are at the same time guz5ing some narcotic poison
or damaging medicine. In'vieu Of the unpreoe-
dcnted growth of the barley crcp; of the great in
crease of the number of masters and brewers; of
the vast unknown quantities Of beer that are drunk
in every city and almost every town on the conti-
nent it is the dictate of sound wisdom, that the
attention of legislators should be- called to the sub
jcct Of the alulteration of our malt liquors, and
severe penalties should be inflicted as preven-
tive"

TIE coLv@8A pHGNIX ANN TIE APPOINT
lIENTs BY TIE GOVERNOR

We have been quite suiprisedby ard.fron the
Proprietor of the Phenir, under the hsad Of ''Ber
sonal," and which is published elsewhepe In our
columns to-day. This surprise is occasioned by
The manner in which Mr.. SELBY attempts to,excul-
pate himself from blame, in regard to the endorse
ment given by his journal to the recent executive
appointments for census-takers Of the various
counties. He alleges that ga typographical error
occured-the words general satisfaction not being
was used ironically" We propose to, examine
briefly some of the facts connected with the re-
markabe endorsement, we insist it was, and
leave an enlightened public to judge as to the
merits of this very curious explanation. In the
FIRST place, the words general Satisdction" were
not used in the article announcing the appoint
ments of the Governor, aud this plainly shows that
the reputed editor Of the Pheniz is not now cog
infant of the language employed, much less the
meaning intended to be conveyed. For his especia!
benefit, We quote the sentence alluded to: The
appointments will be generally cPprorcd," (these
italics are ours, be it remembered,) land we hope
that in the discharge of their duties these officials
will meet with every facility which can be afforded
by the citizens Of the State" That is the whole
Of it, and contains enough to excite unfavorable
comment Will the astute editor Of the Phenir
point out the irony, expressed or implied, when
the words of endorsement arc put in italics But,
admitting that SUCH was the intention, what be-
comes of the context and its meaning? The citi
zens of the State, ''without regard to race, color
or previous condition" are urged to afford "every
spciy" TO these very proper officials, and there is
no claim that the whole sentence ought to have
been italicized. Even admitting all this, however
and ous dull comprehension fails to detect the last
vein Of irony. "O! most lame and, impotent con
clusion!"
We have noticed this card from the simple fact
that the IateiLgencer the first newspaper in the
State, so far as wei know, to condemn this manifest
approval of the Governor appointments. We did
so on the ground of adherence to principle, and
deny most emphaticaly that there was any dispo
sion to carp the article, or find fault unncces
sarily. We have regarded the Phenix as the cep-
trail Democratic organ Of the State, and when it
was discovered that aa unqualified, endorsement Of
sach miserable selections for public officers ap-
peared in its columns, We felt like ndminiserin
sound rebuke to the writer. The card of Mr.. Sell
BY fails TO convince us that We wrong in action
or principle.
