A. GRAND OLD POEM.


who shall Judge a man from manners?
Who shall know him by his dress
Paulers may be fit for princes,
Princes fit for something less;
Crumpled shirt and dirty jacket
May beclothe the golden ore
OF the deepest thought and feeling
Satin vests could do no more.
There are springs ofcrYstal nectar.
Ever yelling out Of stone;
There are purple buds aud golden,
Hidden. crushed and overgrown-
God who counts by souls, not dresses,
Loves and pFospers you and me-
While he values thrones the highest.
But as pebbles in the sea.
Man appraised above his fellows
On forgets his fellows then;
Masters, ruler, lords, remember
That your meanest kinds are men
Men by honor, men by feeling,
Men by thoughts and men by fame,
Clai ming equal rights to sunshine
In a man ennobling name.
There are form embroidered oceans,
There are little weed clad riils,
There are feeble, inch high sapiiEgs,
There are cedars on the hills
God, who counts by souls, not stations,
Loves and pTospers you and me;
Toiling hands alone are builders
or a nations wealth and fame;
Titled laziness is pensioned.
Fed. and fattened on the same,
BY the sweat Of others f0rchead*
Living only to rejoice,
While the poor mans outraged freedom
Vainly lifteth up his voice,
Truth and justice are eternal,
Born with loveliness and light,
Secret wrongs shall never prosper
While there is a sunny right,
God, whose wouid-heard voice is singing
Boundless love to you and me,
Sinks oppression with its titles
As the pebbles In the sea.

Hon. ii. 5. Sanford, formerly United
States Minister TO Belgium, has given the
Savannah Republican an interesting account
of colony of Swedes he has established in
Florida. The colony at first numbered 20,
but has increased to 100. The emigrants
agree to come out and work one year for
their passage, since each has been given
five acres of land. All are planting orange
groves. one acre of which will yield surely
$1,000 to $500 per annum. The colOnists
are establishing flourishing village. Most
of them are artisans and are sending TO
Sweden for relatives. Few have broken
contracts. They like the people, the eli
mate and soil. It Is q curious sight these
fiaxen headed, rosy-cheeked sons Of the
frozen regions near the Arctic circle culti-
waiting orange trees in Florida, healthy, hap
by and Industrious.
