Men said at vespers: All is welll
In one wild light the city fell;
Fell shriEes of prayer and marts of gain
Before the fiery hurricane.
On threescore spires had sunset shone,
Where ghastly sunrise looked on none=
Men cIasped each others hand, and said:
The City of the West is deadi
Brave hearts who fought, in slow retreat,
The fend of fire from street to street,
Turned, IOwerless, to the binding glare,
The dumb defiance OF despair
A sudden impulse thrilled each wire
That signaled round that sea of tire;-,
Swift words fcheer, warm heart-throbs came
IN tears ofpity died the flame!
From East from West from South and North
The messages of hope shot forth,
And, underneath the severing wave,
The world, full handed. reached to save.
Fair seemed the old; but fairer still
The new the dreary void shall fill,
With dealer homes than those o'erthrown,
For love shall lay each cornerstone.
Rise, stricken city from thee throw
The asher sackcloth Of thy woe;
And build, as Thebes to Amphion's strain.
To songs of cheer thy walls againl
How shriveled in thy hot distress
The primal sin of fSelhShneSS!
How instiGnt rose, to take thy part
The angel in the human heart!
All net in vain the flames that tossed
Above thy dreadful holocaust;
The Christ again has reached through thee
The Gospel OF Humanity
Then lift once more thy towers on high,
And fret with spires the western sky,
To tell that God is yet with us,
And love is still miraculousI

ADJOURNMENT OF FHE :
PREMC COURT

The Supreme Court adjourned yester-
day after a session of more than three
months, in order that the Judges might
enjoy q short respite from labor before
entering upon their duties at Jackson the
first Monday in April. It hes been la
borious session, about seven hundred
cases having been disposed of since the
meeting of :he court in December last.
This will seem IemaEka bic, when it is
stated that almost all the cases received
the most careful scrutiny by the court.
Every record was diligently examined,
except such as were agreed on by the at
tcrGeys for the parties. The court has
exhibited a commendable patience, al
most without parallel in judicial bodies,
so that if party has lost his suit, he
cannot truthfully say the court would not
hear him. The parties were fully heard
and their arguments courteously consid-
cred. The patient, laborious examina-
ton of cases, and the uniform courtesy
of the court, and every member thereof,
and the ability with which the numerous
cases were handled, have produced their
legitimate results. They have given
almost universal satisfaction. They now
have short respite from their Iabors,
and will go to their respective homes with

A
The kindest wishes of the entire bar OF
Middle Tennessee. Next to doing right,
the great object of the administration of
justice is to give public sstiff action
This they have accomplished in an emf
nent degree. It would be shame if such
laborious devotion TO duty had not
brought this reward. s{F
Adistinguished member of the bar in
an adjoining circuit, who practised in the
famous court composed of Judges Tur-
ley, Green and Reese, tells Us that the bar
in that day was no better satisfied with
the decisions of that court and the adj
ministration of the law then, than the bal
is now with the present Supreme Court.
It possesses all the high qualities Of g
great tribunal: dignity, ability, courtesy,
and patience worthy of all praise. We
simply record here what is the almos,
unanimous sentiment of the bar on
this subject and we deem it due to
the faithful, upright judges, but to the
country at large that they should know
that their great labors are properly sppre.

thank them, and to feel just pride il

The Cincinnati Commercial has the
following:
A ticket honest men could support In
1872: For President, Charles Sumner, of
Massachusetts; for Vice-President, B.
Grafz Brown, of Missouri.
Speaking of the removal of Senator
Sumner from the Craftsmanship of the
Committee on Foreign Affairs, the Com
mercidl says:
If it does not bring into power party
that will reyolutionize the work of the
past six years, and put suffering South
ern loyalists, white and black, in jeopar-
dy, il will be because the Republicans 10
national convention have the high couT-
age to set aside the claims of the Grant
family, and place at the head of the
Presidential ticket in 1872 some one who
has no Senators TO punish and no brothers
in-lsw to reward.
"No Senators to punish and DC
brothers-in-lsw 10 reward, that is good.

TIE Washington Patriot says: When
Mr.. Shellabarger introduced his bill on
the 9th inst. authorizing the President to
employ the land and naval forces to
prevent distractions of the laws in the
States, he moved its reference TO the
Committee on Reconstruction; but Mr..
Beck promptly objected, and remarked
that that committee was not one of the
standing committees of the House. This
seems to indicate purpose to resist any
attempt to revive it this Congress. There
is no necessity for it, and the country
would be better off if there never had
been such committee.

r.. a
@ 1--WE notice that some of our co;empora-
ries still connect the name of the Hon. Mr..
Kerr, of Indiana, with the protest of Cox
,Profser to the seating of the representatives
elect from Tennessee. This incorrect
statement was sent forth by the ssss ciated
press, originating in the fac. that Mr..
Kerr objected to the Mississippi delega-
ton. Col. Prosser's protest was pre-
sented by Dir. Stevenson, Radical from
Ohio. The special dispatch of the
UNION AND AMERICAN, published the
morning after the meeting of Congress,
correctly named Mr.. Stevenson as the
intrcducer of the Prosser protest. Mr.
Kerr is one of the staunchest Democrats
and ablest Numbers of Congress.

soon. Beggars and peanut and orange
vendors are peculiarly sharp in examiri-
ing their coppers. This morning, as we
were getting out of our gondola to visit
famous church, we gave a beggar an
Austrian kreutzersand passed in. On our
return, as we were stepping into the gon-
dola he approached us, hat in hand
"non bono, and we were obliged to re-
deem it with "centisimo,' or stand con-
victed of defraudi1g him with uncurrent
funds. They know nothing of any money
but their own, which consists mostly of
fractional shinplasters like our own and
coppers. Gold is worth premium of
per cent and having English sovereigns
and French napoleons we ventured on o
small speculation, which was successful.
The smallest copper coin which we have
yet seen is one centisimo-1-100 part of
franc, or less than is of an American
livery convenient change where beg
CARS are plenty. 1t is the same amount
as the French "centime" pronounced
"sawn-teem."
Some one inquiries, "And what about
Venice?" For description see books.
The Rialto looks just like the picture we
used to see in geography, and the city
generally answers the same description,
and it is of little use for me to attempt
anything. Wewill bring home a few
views and answer as many questions as
our friends will ask. We bought pair
Of good kid gloves for two francs, not be.
cause we needed them, but because they
were cheap, which we knew was contrary
to DR.. Franklin's maxim. Jewelry and
pictures are displayed in great profusion.
If gloves were cheap, you inquire, why
not buy for your friends? Because we
travel in light marching order and cannot
cucumber ourself with baggage when we
have some months yet ahead, to make
purchases in. We see thousands of
things which we would like to carry home
with us, if practicable. We have seen
more genteel looking and tastefully
dressed ladies in Venice, than in any city
in Europe In most countries there is
something Of foreign air among the
people, but here they more nearly resem-
BILE Americans than in any other country.
We meet English and Americans almost
daily Yesterday at the table d hote,
among sixty people, French, German,
English, Americans and Italians, great
er number were speaking English than

president Of the present Augusta factory
claims that there is an advantage of ten per

that cotton factories have not multiplied

such enterprises, and Northern capital hest
