That owes 10 heaven Its birth

And, maddened by MS srluIlpl, 'eai
The new Prome,heus, II he dare
Display celestial IRE.
Fame. like some phantom strangely bright,
His ardent gaze beguiles:
He bows before the fatal ifgnt
or her imre-ious smiles.
So the poor bird IN woodland brake
In win wonld fly ihe'treach'rous snake,
And its bewilderlng eyes; -,
From branch 10 branch they lure him s1l!l
Win fascinating charm, until
lie fiutters down and dies.
Or. Ii he wins In distant days
The fame for which he blea--
II living he is crowned with pays
That blOom-to deck the dead.
Still. still by ignorance belied,
Bv hatred logged, and spurned py prlae,
With aching heart he Signs:
And oft the victim, wrung by pain,

From the Missouri Republican J
More Soldiers Wanled.


The report that the Secretary Of
War will recommend an increase OF
the regular army is denied, but it is
stated that Gen. Sherman is still Of
the opinion that if troops are to be
used IN the South as heretofore there
will not be enough tosupply demands
elsewhere. That troops are to be
used in the South, at least! until after
the next Presidential election, is as
certain as death and taxes and tue
party which dos not scruple to en-
ploy military force to carry out its
own paftisap measures, surely! need
feel no delicacy IN increasing this
force to an unlimited extent when
ever necessary. Of course, there was
time when this sort of thing was
not as fashionable as it is now: when
the army of the United States was
employed only for strictly legitimate
purposes, and had nothing more to
do with the manipulation Of national
politics than with the direction of
European affairs. But under the be-
nlgn influences of Radicalism a
change has been wrought, and now
it is thought no more singular that
the President should send a few bat
talions and batteries into a closely
contested Southern district, than that
lie should indulge in cocktail before
or a cigar after dinner.
) Therefore, bayonets being recog-
med feature OF Radical policy TIE
supply of the article must not b per-
mitted to run short. he Apaches
are getting troublesome and may need
a steel bit in their mouths; the Nor
mons are fearfully polygamous, and
the seventh commandment may hive
to be heavily reinforced; Domingo
annexation is yet on the cards, and
bene' olent Baez may want backing;
tn re is sreck Of war on the Span
sh horizon, and we may have to in
wade Cuba; the pestterous Ku Klux
are said to be considerably thicker
than ! aves in Vallombrosa and mnl-
tiplying like Canada thistles, and
these may require an armed hand to
uproot them and last, but not least,
the Radica! ticket f r 1872 will cer-
tainly fall unless soldiers are literally
and judiciously distributed through
large section OF our restored Union.
onsequently the sweetly rersua-
sive song, Let us have peace, ought
70 be straightway changed into the
stern war-cry, Let us have more
arny"-and whether Secretary Bells-
nap reports i'll favor OF an increase or
not the Radical minority in Congress.
i they lave an atom Of consistency,
must listen 10 and Iced that ry.

In Memoriam of the Death of Albert
G. Turner.
Peacefully slumber, dear friend,-thy
brief warfare GER
Young Christian warrior! on earth We'll
see thee no more;
"Fought the good fight, the last victory
won,"
The fierce battle is o 'er, and OH earth thy
work is done.
Farewell, Christian soldier! we ne'er
shall see thy loved form
Joyfully fastening to school on the bright
Sabbath morn;
Ne'er hear thy loved voice, singing in
accents of love,
The songs of redemption, to the Father
above.
IFcU miss thee at morning, at noon, and
at night
They will miss thee in the home thy pres
ence made bright ~
DuL oOu III LID NlSNOlh
thee home,
And thou art now with the angels who
surround his throne.
Weep not for him, mother,-but trust in
His power
Who has promised to guard and tosoothe
in sorrows dark hour;
Weep not for him, loved wife-in Heaven
thou wilt meet,
Lies stormy voyage o o'cr, at the dear Sa-
vior's feet.
Dear sisters and brothers, whom he loved
upon earth,
Who shared in his sorrows and joined in
his mirth,
Weep not. He is waiting for thee on the
Heavenly shore,
Where sorrow and parting are heard of
no more.
a FRIEND.
