A0rn1ng Land
1--WE are such stuff
As dreams are made Of I; and our little life
Is rounded with sleep"
Dew on the lawns. and fragrance Of fresh flowers
And magical song Of mellow -throsted birds
A beauty untransmutable to words:
Such e the vision of the morning hours;
When fade the urns Of night In saffron skies,
And Light and love return TO young dream. haunted
Earine has sucked the breath of Spring
And have touched thy lips, Esrine,
What time the Dawn came from the purple sea,
And forests duttered to the waving wing
Back upon heavy hinge the porphyry gates Of
sleep.
Delicious thus to enter Morning Land;
The world 10 vondrous, for the world Is new;
Dim Drosera Is ell o'erdrenched with dew
All, well might Merlin wake In Broceliande,
And see the dsybrsak through the oaks that
wave.
Where ivy and violet grow on his melodious grave.
WIN It be thus when the strange sleep of death
LITE from the brow, and lost eyes live again.
VIII Morning dawn on the bewldered brain,
To cool and heal? And shall I feel the breath
OF fresheDing winds that travel nom the sea,
And meet thy loving, laughing eyes, Earine,
Is life dream, and death q sleep, and love
The only thing mmortals Who would care
To be received into the ambient cir,
Or traverse ether like cloud, above
The happy homes of mortals Must the soul
Be formlessly absorbed into the infinite whole,
No; shall pass into the Morning Land
A now from sleep into the light OF morn;
Live the new life Of the new world, unshorn
OF the swift brain. the executing head;
See the dense darkness suddenly withdrawn,
As when Orions sightless eyes discsrned the
shall behold 10; shall see the utter
Glory Of sunrise heretofore unseen,
Freshening the woodland ways with brighter
green,
And calling into life all wings that futter,
All throats Of music and all eyes OF light,
And driving DER the verge the intoerable night.
o virgin world marvellous far DAYS!
Nomore with dreams of grief doth love grow
bitter,
Nor trouble dim the lustre wont to glitter
In happy eyes. Decay alone decays:
A moment-death's dull sleep Is DER: and vs
Drink the immortal morning air, Earine.

ARADICAL THREAT

The Chicago Tribune, the leading
Radical paper in the Northwest,
says if the Legislature of this
State shall fail to ratify the fifteenth
amendment, Congress may take
some action to displaco the Senter
government. Here are its exact
words:
Governor ScnteI's assurance 10 Presi.
dent Grant of his beliefthat his party will
ultimately pass the fifteenth amendment,
Is dubious and unsatisfactory. He must
remember that, though Me-. Stokes de
mand that Seniors election shall be de-
clared null, seems wild at present; never
iheless all parties concede that the election
Of Senter was a sort of coup d etat where
in, by common consent, the whole Rebel
population Of Tennessee were unlaWfully
registered and voted. The Senter party
live IN a house Of exceedingly brittle
glass, and they cannot afford TO throw
stones at those who put them in
power. II, Immediately on the session Of
the Legislature, Tennessee passes the
fifteenth amendment, Congress will over
look violations Of Law which, in the event
Of the defeat of that measure, will be
thoroughly investigated and punished.
We cannot predict that the
defeat Of the amendment in Tennessee will
lead 10 any action by Congress tending to
the displacement Of the Senter govern
ment, or TO the investigation into the
irregularities by which il came into power,
or TO the rejection Of its representatives.
from seats in Congress BIT il is by no
means impossible that 1t may"
This is the kind Of threat which
Radical journals are beginning to
hold over the people and Lcgi8la
ture Of Tennessee, referring to
which the Chicago Times says:
EITHER the Senter government is the
lawful government Of the State, or it is
not If it be the lawful government Of
the State, it has as much right to reject
the amendmentas any State in the Union.
If it be not the lawful government Of the
State, its acceptance Of the amendment
will not make it 60. Acceptance or re-
lection of the amendment cannot possibly
give Congress any authority for interfer>
ing to sustain or put down the Senter gov
ernment. This is not claimed, but Ten
nessee is menaced with an extinction of
her State government in case she fails to
take such action on the amendment as
shall please Congress. This would be
ridiculous were it not yillainOus, and in
harmony with all the congressional
proceedings in dealing with "reconstruc-
ton. If Congress may annihilate
State government for failing to ratily a
constitutional amendment, what is there
"l common sense or consistency in the
submission of such an amendment to the
S}atn-g"
Nashville union and American. [volume] (Nashville, Tenn.) 1868-1875, 1869-09-10

The Knoxville Wing is very con
fdent that "the administration will
not remove Senter Republicans,
who are faithful and efficient, from
efice." While the Wing is giving
expression to this confidence in the
Grant administration, the Fayette-
vile Observer brings US the follow
ing announcement:
1--WE are sorry to learn that Mr.. Alfred
Bearden has been superseded by John
Carey as Internal Revenue Assessor in this
county. Mr.. Bearden was an excellent
officer, and has been removed because he
was not a Stoker. The best interests of
the service demanded his retention in the
Office he 80 ably filled, but party interest
required his removal"
1t will thus be seen that the work
of removal of Senter ofice~holders
is quietly going on, Notwithstanding
Grants pledge to Gov. Senter.
