The Little Church Round the gerae

That little Church round the corner,
How dear 10 me the spot!
And tho far DER earth I wander
1t ne'er can he tOrSOt.
Twas there in childrOod's days 1 listened
To he songs / loved 50 well,
And there / learned of Col and Heaven,
Where holy angels ever dwell
The sun may shine, the clouds may darker
No gloom this life can cast,
Thai ii.tle Church round the corner,
VIII take me home at last.
Alas, the days rhat were SO sunny,
Have slowly passed away,
And clouds have gathered over my parting
old friends no longer STAY;
Yet 1 hear the sweet BIRDS singing,
Round about the old Church door,
And holy hymns glad tEoGgsII9 are bringing
10 cheer my heart forever more.
1 care not how the world may darken,
Or earthly friends prove cold.
/ know there is Il future for me,
Within my fathers fold.
And when my soul shall leave its caSket,
free from all LIES sun or storm,
That little Church round the corner,
Shall welcome home my mortal form.

There is nothing that our citizens
should feel greater pride in than hav-
ing III streets adorned with shade
and ornamental trees, and their lots
and yards with choice fruit trees,
which in a year OF two will commence
to yield and repay them ten-fold for
the outlay. Our town already lays
claim to great beauty in this respect,
but.athere is yet room for improve
meut.

General Meade

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 11.-Business is
almost entirely suspended, and the city
has holiday appearance. Flags are ev-
erywhere draped in mourning, and even
buildings, out of respect to the memory OF
General Meade. The route over which the
funeral cOrtege is moving is filled with
people. Early this morning the body of
the deceased was removed from the house
to st. Marks Church, where it was placed
III front of the altar, guarded by detail
selected by General Mcdowell. Long be-
fore half-past 10, the time fixed for the
services, the church was packed. The
officiating clergymen were Rev. Mr.. Hoff-
man, rector; Bishop Odenheimer, and
Bishop Whittle. The first named Bishop
read the prayers, and the latter made an
address eulogistic of the deceased.
The funeral procession commenced NOV
ing about half-past IL o'clock, and took
nearly one hour to pass a given point.
The national, State and city officials We'd
with private citizens to do honor to the
dead. -. Ls...s.e.. .-f.-
The coffin was carried on gun carriage,
drawn by six horses, followed by led
horse. with saddle and vacant boots re-
versed. The coffin was covered with the
American colors. with a sword and wreath
on top.
Gen. Grant, in citizens dress, rode in an
open carriage, accompanied by Mr.. George
n. Stuart and other gentlemen. Generals
Sherman, Sheridan, and other army OH
GERS appeared in full uniform. The pro-
cesslon was very imposing.

Our City Hospital.

EDITORS CHRONICLE: The attention OF the
public was called 20 this subject in a COMMUNE
cation in Wednesdays CHRONICLE. Unques-
tionably it is one that needs to be stirred. If
the end in view can only be reached by earnest
and persistent agitation, humanity and Christian
civilization demand such agitation. Non gus
sid g1id" has treated the subject in your jour
nal in sensible and pointed manner and it is to
be hoped that his suggestions will be effectively
followed up. He speaks of lot that was
given quite q number of years ago for a
hospital, and of the sum of $4,000 in
hand for the erection of q building The money
it is understood, was contributed by the Direc-
tors of the East Tennessee Relief Society, and
the County Court, four or five years ago, con-
frmed and renewed an appropriation of three
or four thousand dollars for the same purpose
Now it i2 certainly due to the people of Knox
vile that the Trustees of the hospital shall make
some authorized and satisfactory statement con-
corning this matter. No doubt the money con-
tributed is in safe hands and will be forth COM
ing upon demand ofthe Trustees. But it will not
be amss for the public to be informed after
the lapse of some years, as to the condition OF
the fund, the amount of its increase by being
loaned at interest," how much may certainly be
expected from the County toward the erection
of a building, why the work of providing a
hospital still drags its weary length along,
whether the difficulties in its way cannot speed
lily be removed, and whether if the proposed
location is to be litigated over indefinitely, it
would not be better, considering that there is
crying need of such city institution, to obtain
another and suitable spot of ground? Surely
if the gentlemen who hold the hospital fund
are an incorporated Board of Trustees, they
should have suitable officers who can represent
them before the public, and in that case they
can not and will not, probably, object to maxi
ing an official report in reference to the case,
however briefly. This is desirable on several
accounts, not the least of which is, that great
many persons in the city feel the need of hos
pital, and some are willing to give or cooperate
towards its construction; but that while it is
not to be presumed for moment that the trus-
tees alluded to have acted in the matter other
wise than as they thought best, what they can
state concerning it will afford others acceptable
light and information, and may open the way
for something being done more promptly and
efficiently toward the object which the trustees,
as we'll as others, have at heart. HOWARD.

A Psalm ef Despair.

Petroleum V. Nasty has written some
touching lines over the result of the cleo
ton. His psalm is as follows:
We sed to Greeley, "Lo, we are week
| carry u.s." And he answered, saying, II
WILL" and strateway climbed upon our
shoulders.
Wat Good bear such burden-wat Good
| carry so great load and live.
He he'd no strength land no strength had
we've tried to carry each other, and we
founder in the ditch by the wayside.
Shood the foolish man ask me, Lo, which
wuz the weakest, Greeley or the Democra-
cy 81? shood say Go tot is conundrum
l give it up.
The jimpson weed falleth in the autumn,
but cometh up in the spring, but we hev
fallen, and we shell never rise agin, for we
are dead at the root, and the seed is rotten
in the pod.
Sampson's hare wuz shingled and he
wuz weak, but it growed agin and he wuz
strong.
But ours will not grow agin, for we hev
none to grow Our enemies hev snatched
us baldheaded.
Now let me die, for the waters of woe
encompaseth me-
We played our left bower and our king,
but 10, our enemy held the right bower and
the ace to a four-fush drawed we, but
we did not fill. and no stamps he'd we to
raise EN- out.
We are cleaned out and nary a shake
hev we left.
The treasury will be safe, the tax-gath
erer will live, the debt shell be paid, and
we shell gnash our teeth.
For Grant shell reign, and Boutwell, and
Fish and Sherman shell hold up his hands.
The repeaters shell languish for the law
shell be strong, and the kuklux shell hunt
their holes.
Life is dream-hope deloosion, and
Greeley a snare. Let us die and be at
peace.

The following from the Union ana
american is sumner and we think enti-
ties Burch to the champion belt:
The Knoxville Press and Herald says
-"he must have been very hopeful Demo
crat who expected it 1.-THE party] tosurvive
as an organization either the defeat or the
election of Horace Greeley" This, COM
ing from the Press and Herald, whose edi-
tor drafted the resolutions adopted by the
Tennessee Democratic State Convention,
which was the first to declare for Greeley
and Brown, tells us that he indicated a
policy for the Democracy of Tennessee,
which he knew would be the death of the
party. The Democracy can better succeed
without those advisers who would compass
its death. !

The Result.
NASHVILLE, Nov. u, 1872.

What glorious triumph we have achieved
in the election of Maynard. Never before were
so many important issues settled at any one cleo
ton. my policy has been endorsed-in q
horn. The question of veracity between the
President and the ex-President has been finally
settled and the "bloody chasm" is filled up to
the very brim. All these old dead issues have
been thrown into that awful, black, ugly
"bloody chasm," and their fertilizng properties
have already caused the green grass to spring
up so that it resembles the rich pastures of Cha
paqua farm. Young men and maidens meet
and,make merry where once yawned the bloody
chasm," Old men and matrons with solemn
tread and sedate countenance say as they pass
over Marry young men and go West, go
West" and "Let lis have Peace"
Say to Kicks or Rule, if you should chance to
meet either that the returns in the Office of Sec
rotary of State, indicate that the Republicans
and Cheathamites will have n majority on joint
ballot over the Johnsonites in the next Legis-
lature.
Novembers surly blasts, the leaves will whirl,
And soon the trembling AUaLG1lche will fall
Then fold lchite coats the feeble Bonner furl,
And in the bloody chasm," Press them all.
Now CHRONICLE their sad, untimely end
And weep for those who Joined the feeble
ranks,
Who did, with Sumner, Schurz and Greeley
blend,
And in the fray, fell with Red River Banks.
Very truly and sincerely yours &C.,

Pretty Good,

About the commemorate of the late un-
pleasantness, Judge Sam. Rice made. a
speech in North Alabama, in which he
said the Southern soldiers can whip the
Yankees with pop-guns."
After the war, when things wore a diff
ferent aspect, he CHANGED to make another,
utavery different sort ofspeech in the same
place, when an indignant voter who had
heard and remembered the former boastful
harangue rolled I'D his sleeves and APP
preached the Judge as follows:
''Sam Rice, didn't you make speech
here in 1861 ?"
II did," said Sam.
"And didn't you say that we could whip
the Yankees with pop-guns"
Certainly / did but the id rascals
wouldn't consent to fight us that way"
