sno sitting mere Tonight, Ano"
That ere long mus; hence depart.
Tha: cen Affections precious chain
Lacks power to bind my soul to earth
For ere the spring-ti:ne comes again
Therc'il be but ashes on Lies hearth,
And .hoc, beloved, whose dear heart
So tenderly IS linked with mine.
1 know :hou'lt griere when depart,
The golden bowl drained of its wine.
Bot IL this one sad hour Of grief,
One hope has power to soothe my pain
The sweet assurance and belief
"We only part to meet again
So 10 not weep wilh idle tears
When DER MY close-scaled lips yon stand:
70 ME the swiftly aeeting years
VIII! guide thy bark with kindly hand.
Then dear, It's better not TO let
This gricf o'crshado~ all thy sky,
The sun of life will only set
To rise in the glad by-ard-by.
Mr.. Greeley's Portland Speech.
The address of Mr.. Greeley, delivered
in the City Hall, at Portland, Maine,
which was given yesterday in our tele-
graphic columns, deserves more than q
passing notice. Here, for the first time
since Lis nomination, Mr.. Greeley seems
to have departed from his usual reserve,
and gives expression to his views. This
speech iustifes the confidence which the
South IS disposed to repose in the LIbe-
raj candidate. His sentiments breathe
the spirit of the wise statesman, and for
the South he has brave and generous
words.
Said he, at the close of his address:
"From those who support me in the
South I have heard but one demand
Justice; but one Observation-Disclosures.
They wish to be heartily reunited and ut
peace with the North, on any terms
which do not involve the surrender Of
their manhood. They ask that they
should be regarded and treated by any
Federal authority as citizens, no; cul.
prits, 50 long as they obey and uphold
every law consistent with equality and
right. "
They desire o rule which, alike for
white and black, shall encourage indus
try and thrift, aud discourage rapacity
and vlllainy. They cherish a joyful hope,
in which fully concur, that between
the fifth of November and the fourth of
March next, quite 4 number Of Governors
and other diguitaries, who in the absurd
name of Republicaaism and loyalty, have
70. years been pi:ing debts and taxes
upou their war wasted States, will follow
the wholesome example Of Bullock, Of
Georgia, and seek the shades Of private
life.
The darker and deeper those shades,
the better for themselves and for man
kind and the hope that ray election may
hasten the much desired hegira of thiev-
ing carpe,-5aggers has -cconciled 10 the
necessity of supporting me ,nanJ who
would otherwise have hesi;ated, AID
probably refused"
"Fellow-citizens, the deposed and par
tally exiled Tammany Ring has stolen
about thirty millions Of dollars from the
city of New York. That was most
gigantic robbery, and hurled its con:
trirers and abetsors from power and
splendor to iupotency and infsmy, but
the thieving carpet-baggers have stolen
at least three times that amount, stolen
j. from people already impoverished and
needy, and they still aaunt their ptospe-
rous villainy in the highest places Of the
land. and are addressed as Honorable and |
Exceilency. think | hear voice from |
the honest people Of all the States de-
c'aring that their lniQui;y shall be gain
ful and ;nso!ent-no longer at the far
Ties. than the fourth of March next.
BY taat time 4 national verdict vii! be
pronounced that will cause them 30 fold
their tents, like the Arabs, and as si?en.
tly steal away, and that, ] trust, will be
the end Of their stesl!ng at the cost Of
the good name Of our country and the
wcll-beins of her people. !
