Farewell to the Sea.
BY ALICE OSBORNE.

Fresh is the ran and grey the sea and sky;
The island rocks are only noise and foam,
And evening winds are fastening on TO roam
The moody shore, and kiss the wild rose dry,
Beside the darkened brook, beneath a thorn-bush
high.
Now all the yellow light lies on the sea.
A broadening bar along the farthest grey;
But meet it is to turn the eyes away
Shoreward, and think of mountain. flower and tree
Till woodland airs are blent with murmurs of the
The winds have left the main, and many a leaf
Is rustling inland; rainy tree-trunki CLEAN;
The ghost of Rain is walking on the stream,
A gentle sprite, for shapes o. fl ar and grief
Haunt but the fog-blown shore, and wave-deyoured
reef.
Inland CO. unmindfu1 of the loss.
But sea and shore are kin, and counterparts
OF form and color show the welded hearts.
Because there grows a greysh woodland moss,
Bearer is sea-weed grey, the hollow breakers toss.

speech on the civil rights measure pending in
that body. Representative Ransier in that
speech takes occasion to reply to the sheer
of the rebel Robbins that the negro cannot
fight. Mr.. Ransier demonstrates that the
percentage Of losses in killed among the
white troops and the colbred troops does not
differ materially. This speech comes in as
a part of the whole effort by our own repre-
sentatives on the floor of the House, and is
important as an addition to the wel-directed
and praiscworthy labors already put forth by
the colored members of Congress in behalf
of the peace and prosperity of American
citizens without lnvidious determinations.
The speeches thus far made by our colored
Representatives in Congress have been of
incalculable benefit to US as a people, and
the speech of Hon. 4. j. Ransier, which we
print elsewhere, will be read with pleasure
by every colored person in the country, as
well as by all friends Of Justice.
