EACH AND. ALL.
By RALPH WALDO IxERsoN,

Little thinks in the field, yon red-cloaked clown,
OF thee from the hilltop looking down;
The heifer that lows n the upland farm,
Far heard, lows not thine ear to charm;
The sexton, tolling his bell at noon,
Deems not that great Napoleon
Stops his horse, and lists with delight,
Whilst he files round yon Alpine height:
Nor knowest thou what argument
Thy life to thy neighbours creed has lent.
All are needed by each one
Nothing is fair good alone.
thought the sparrow's note from heaven,
Singing at dawn on the alder bough;
brought him home, In his nest, at oven,
lie sings the song, but it pleases not now;
For did not bring homo the river and sky,
He sang to my ear-they sang to my eys.
The delicate shells lay on the shore;
The bubbles of the latest wave
Fresh pearls to their enamel gave,
And the following of the savage sea
Greeted their safe escape to me.
wiped away the weeds and foam
fetched my searborn ii easure home;
But the poor, unsightly, noisome things
Had left their beauty On the shore,
With tho sun, and the sand, and the wild uproar
The lover watched his graceful maid,
As mid the virgin train she strayed
Nor knew her beautys best attire
Was woven still by the snow-white choir.
At last she came to his hermitage,
Like the bird from the woodland to his cage;
The gay enchantment was undoue-
gentle wife, but fairy none.
Then said, ~ covet truth;
Beauty is un~ipe childhood's cheat
I leave it behind with the games Of youth"
As spoke, beneath my feet
The ground-pine curled its pretty wreath,
Running over the club moss burs;
inhaled the violet's breath
Around me stood the oaks and frs;
Pineconesand acorns lay on the ground,
Over me scared the eternal sky,
Full Of light and of deity;
Again 1saw, again heard,
The rolling river, the morning bird;
Beauty through my senses stol--
yielded myself to the perfect whole.

OUTLAWRY IN TIE SOUTH.--two re-
ports were made in Congress on Friday
last by the investigating committee on south
ern outrages. The majority report pre-
sents sad state of affairs in several Of the
southern States, where neither property
nor life is safe from the various bands OF
outlaws. The Union men, especially north
ern men, are singled out for murder or eX-
pulsion. The minority report attempts to
salve over most of these occurrences and
uses various fiimsy inventions to show that
they are eXaggerationa, or at least not near
ly SO bad as tcetified to by the witnesses.
In connection with the que stion, Governor
Scott, of South Carolina, few days ago
called upon the President for United State
troops to suppress outrages in the counties
of Union and Eork, in that State, where he
reports that men are murdered or driven
from their homes nightly, because Of their
political opinion. AS an evidence Of the
condition Of affairs, the facts are stated
that, on Monday, Of last week, company
Of United State troops that left Columbia
for y ork had the railroad torn up in theil
front by body Of armed men, and were
obliged to march by the road. On Friday
last the Republican members Of the Leg
islaturc, now sitting, paid men t. picket
the road leading from the capital, because
Of well-grounded fears of a KuKluX raid
upon their body.

add Que fact, to Which | rCcur with some degree
OF pride, that in all the ten years that | vas on

the court had its own way in the end And

that the case has long since been disposed of,
and that new light has been thrown upon it, adj
nit that the court was right

---CorrespOndcnce

PIrrsBuReH, March 8, 1871.
Hon. 3, Potion:
DEAR SIR The undersigned, members Of the
Bench and Bar of Pittsburgh, caunot allow the
occasion of your visit to our city to pass without
expressing the pleasure which 1t affords u.s.
Many of lis were at the Bar, when you were on
the Bench as President Judge of this District
We recall the fact that, although when YOU took
your seat, now :hird of II century ago, you
were the youngest man who ever occupied ju-
dcial position in this State, You soon surmount-
ea any difficulties arising from iuexperlencc, and
that, on retiring from the Bench, you carried
with you an untarnshed reputation and the re-
spcct of the whole community, who remember
macy of the laws aud maintained the cause of
law and order.
All our remiuisccnce, PERSONAL social and pro-
fessiona, of your term of judicial service are of
the most agreeable character. The urbanity of
your manner, especially TO those OF us who were
then juniors at the Bar, your impartiality and
ability in the discharge of your judicial duties
and the absence of any attempt to pervert the
powers of your office TO paftizan or selfish pur-
poses which characterized your judicial career
among us, and which served to render so agree
able the social intercourse between the members
of the Bench and Bar, are known and remember
ed with pleasure by us all.
We shall be most happy to meet you in any So
cial way that would be most agreeable to your
self, in order that we may have an opportunity
of testifying in person the respect and friendly
regard which we have never ceased to entertain
for YOU.
