POET R Y.
TO THE IVEY.

Lone tenant Of the wasted spot
Where softcned desolation smiles;
Where weeds grow rank-o'er graves forgot
And ruin sghs through grass-grown-ai1ek!
Still clinging round some withered trunk,
Or Wondering tenement of age;
Or where the riven wall has sunk
Beneath distinctions leaguering rage.
Child of decay! no l,lushing flower,
No cup of treasured sweets is thine,
To breathe in l'eanty's fragrant bewer,
Or charm where statelicr rivals shine;
The column Of the desert place,
The warriors cross, the nameless stone.
RecGve thy clasping boughs'' embrace,
And thow thy clustering wreaths alone
The violet and the quaen-like rose,
FraH miniOns of passing day,
Brief Us the faith which falsehood shows
But bloom while lasts their worshiped
ray;
To me thy mournful leaf excels
The fairest buds whose petals fling
Their edors where the summer dwells
Or gem the verdant robes OF spring.
Yet type of truth! when fortune wanes;
And grief that Lauuts the mouldering 9
tomb;
And love, that, strong as death sustains
Tho wlIirlwind's shock and tempest
gloom;
Thou still amidst tie bowling blast,
When all is drear. art smiling ON;
Unchanged, unshrinking to the last,
And green when even hopess gone!

The Southern inferno.

From the leading editorial in the
New York Herald Of the 2lst, on
"The Troubles in the South" we ey-
tract the following sensible and truth
full observations : !, 9 .
It is easyoto provoke chaos and
call it reconstruction. This is what
we have done in the South. It's con-
(;ltion to-day is far worse politically
than Poland or ireland. IL Poland
the Military hand presses rudely
upon the peope, bnt they are not
robbed. In Ireland aliens sit in
auth; rity, but they are gentlemen
who do. not show their dislike to
Ilone rule and repeal by robbing the
exchequer. 1t has bceo reserved for
the American Republic to unite
Russian severity with q capacity
which belongs to no other nation
and for which we have to find O.
parallel in the careers oY Verres and
Warren Hastings.
The blame for this rests largely
upon the General Government, bH
not wholly. We do not excuse the
leaders Of the South for their apathy.
Something more than silent, nnpro
testing acquiesancc IN the rule Of
advsnturers and ignorant freedmen
was required from the men who had
been high inc the council Of the
Confederacy and who still pos. essed
.Ppopular confderce. The Southern
people have been abandoned and
helpless. The men who should have
guided them threw away response
bility. There is not q Southern
State, excepting, perhaps, South
Carolina, where, Notwithstanding the
Suffrage to the negroes ond disfran
Ghisement, tho old leaders of the
South would not have succeeded in
overturning the rule of the carpet
baggers, or at least frustrating their
schemes until an awakened public
spirit in the North came to their
aid.
What will be. the oend? Some
think that We Shah have these
periodical and constantly recurring
Outbreaks, these eruptions of the
political volcano, until it burns out
and becomes extinct. We are re-
minded thaolong after the Stuarts
were driven from the throne of
England, their followers were mu-
einous and defiant that rebellion
succeeded rebellion for more than
a half century, until Jacobitism be-
came memory and was only pre-
served in ballads and romances. But
never oppressed the Jacob
ties, wh@e Ireland, which she did
oppress, remains as hostile to her
rule as She was seven centuries ago.
The condition of the Southera States
is scandal.e @
We can never feel that we ohave
perfect peace until we have perfect
reconstruction. Dante, in his I'M
mortal poem, spe;Rss of visiting that
hell where the surface of the black
water was ever bubbling. 1t was be-
cause of the sighs of suffering souls
beneath the waters. We
never see these buildings and rest .
less movelsents of Southern society
feeling that they represent
the imprisoned souls beneath, and
hoping that theetime may come when
they owill be released from their
thraldom and admitted to the red
sponsibility Of q generous and un-
'aintea citizenship. !

Elae Arkansas Ilnbrcgi;O,
History OF the Otlster.

Per telegram we had frt8, day to day
aid fallowed the oSsting Of Gov. Baxter
lfs Brooks, 0hnt..the proceedings i9 court
lave not bSan very intelligently com
nunicated. We supply the connection
from the narrative contained ip the Little
Rock Gazette of the 18th.
1t is known, perhaps, that about u year
ago Mr Joseph Brooks commenced a suit
i'm the Pulaski Circuit CouI +, setting out
il, his complaint that he hag been elected
Gover,tor of Arkansas at Che November
election, 1872 and asking that 2 judgmc1ti
of custer be issued aga!nstS Gov. Baxter
He further sued for the eInoIuments of the
office for the time he had been deprived OF
the same. Abont the same time Attorney
General Yonley filed in the Supreme
Court an application for QUO wafant6
against Gov Baxter. 1t will be 10;
me,nbcrcl the Supreme Cougt decided that
the judicial department of the Government
had no power to decide a contested cleo
ton case for the office of Governor, and
dismissed tho application. for quo war
ranto, Chief Justice Mcclure dissenting.
That decision, in effect, disposed of the
ease instituted by. Brooks in the Circuit
Court, and nothing more was. thought OF
the matter. The case has remained on thr
Circuit Court docket to the present time
Judges English and Compton. the attor
neys of Gov. Baxter, endcavored- several
times to get tha case dismissed; but for
some cause or other they could never sue
cced. 1t must be borne in mind that tie
Circuit Judge Whytock, is politically an
extreme partisan Of Brooks.

murIer, andl was asreSd-as we have it
from Judge English himself-that the de
murrer shouiss not be submitted until next
wcelSs On Monday, when both Of Gov
Baxtea's counsel were absent, Mr.. Whip
pie, one Of Brooks counsel, stated that it
had been agreed between himself and
Judge English th;h the matter should be
submitted This unauthorized action, as
we are informed, on the part OF Mr.,
Whipple was not thought Of even then 4
no zone dreaming that 1udge Wbytoek
would rule otherwise than As the Supreme
Court had decided he had 10 iuris-
diction Of the case.
About 1 o'clock yesterday morning, how
ever. While Judge English and Compton
were abset1t, Judge Whytock delivered a
decision IN the ease, overruling the de-
mnrrer- Submitted by Whipplc without
the knowledge or consent OF Gov. Baxter's
