"BY THE SEA"

In front the restless ocean grand,
Upon its heaving breast,
The white winged ships from foreign land
Nearing the port Of rest.
Afar .he isles in beauty aoat
Against the summer sky,
And ever and anon a note
The sea bird lonely cry.
The waves toss up their snowy crests
Up@n the silver sand,
And with their white and throbb;ng breasts
Lie prsstrate on the strand
Tkey eiurmer psalms of solemn sound;
The. chant a hymn of praise,
While all the surging pillows
Ia tone old Oceans lays.
And thus we linger on the shore
OF Life s dark restless sea,
Until ,yye rest for ever more
In glad eternity.
Waiting by Jordan's stormy food
To cross to Heaven shore;
Saved shrough the Lambs atoning blood,
Whc"e Death comes never more.
Watins; the Master voice to hear
Abo.e the raging sea,
''Coue blessed, come without fear;
Come faithful ones to Me-
Our ba9k celestial's golden PROV
Is OF the silvery strand,
And so!t the gentle zephyrs blow
Toward the better land.
The angel pilots pinions white,
His radiant garments fair,
Hume the food with halloweI light,
He waite,h soul to bear
Thy spirit DER the starless wave
Into the port of rest,
Beyond the borders of the grave
To thy Redeemer's breast.
o sad heart wipe thy tears away;
Thy dear ones gone before
Are waiting at the gates Of day
Thy coming to the shore.

HARPER'S MAGAZINE for October is a.
magnificent number for its Illustrations
and as rich in the variety aud interest of it
reading matter as was ever published.
This number, containing eighty ilustra
tons of unusual beauty, opens with 1.-THE
Emigrant's story" by J. Il. Trowbridge-:
poem of characteristic force and pathos, Il
lustrated by Sol. Etynge.
The first Of an admirable series of illus.
trated papers on Decorative Art and Arch.
lecture in England" is contributed by Mon
cure D. Conway.
7. b. Aldrich contributes graceful and
exceedingly interesting paper, profusely and
beautifully illustrated, Oh Portsmouth, en-
titled IAN OLD Town by the Sea" Happily
experimenting this article is one on 'The
Isles of Shoals" by John W. Chadwick,
beautifully illustrated.
Under the title Of "Thc uuntsmen of the
Sea, y is given curious and thrilling chapter
of American whaling adventure, with graphic
and effective illustrations.
One Of the most characteristic illustrated
papers of the number rs "Some Talks of an
Astronomer contributed by Prof. Simon
Newcomb, of the United States Observatory
at Washington. This paper, which Will be
concluded in the November number, meets a
popular want, and is very timely in conncc-
ton with the prominence Of astronomical
topics this year.
The admirable serial story, Grape Of the
Camp" is continued, with two of Mr.. Fred
erick's brilliant illustrations; and X. III.
StOddard contributes an excellent poem,
which is illustrated, entitled "Thc Two An
chors."
Especial interest will attach to the re.
sumption in this number of Senior Castelar's
series of papers on "The Republican Move
ment in Europe" The present installment
is an eloquent review of the connection, in
this worlds history, between distinctive
types of nationality and the various forms of
religious faith. This subject is treated with
an especial application to the religious move
ment in Germany during the last hundred
years, which will be the series of few SUBJ
sequent papers. Senior Castelar's estimate
of Luther, Zwinglins and Calvin indicates a
predominant Protestant Impulse acting upon a
judgment of rare Catholicity.
Three stories of unusual power, poems by
John G. SAKE and Margaret f. Sangster, and
the five editorial departments make up, with
the other articles which we have noticed, an
ideally perfect number.

General Dibble, on the part of the Gov
crnor, replied;
81 have to repeat what said before, that
while there may not be armed men on Canal
street, there are armed bodies within a short
distance assembled on the same call as your
mass meeting"
The committee then retired, and soon after
reported the result of the interview to the
mass meeting. The people were then adj
vised to go home, get their arms and ammu-
milton, and return to assist the White League,
who were then under arms, to execute plans
that would be arranged for them. The peo-
pie then quietly dispersed. Afterward quite
number formed in procession and marched
up Camp street.
New ORLEANS, September l4.-The peo-
pie seem to have responded with alacrity to
the advice given them by DR.. Beard, one of
the speakers at the Canal-street meeting.
BY p. NJ. armed men were stationed at the
intersections of all the streets on the south
side of Canal street from the river to Clai
borne street. About O'Clock body of
Metropolitans, numbering about 500, with
cavalry and artillery, appeared at the head
of Canal street, and took position. Gen.
Longstreet, who was commanding, accom-
panied by an orderly, then rode up and down
Canal street, ordering the armed citizens to
dispense.
Some desultory firing soon after occurred
along Canal street, and some few casualties
are reported on both sides. The Metrop0li-
tans are reported to have broken at the first
fire, the citizens capturing one piece of artil-
lery.
Citizens are now building barricades along
Poydras street, having already captured the
City Hall and taken possession of the fire.

The father of Mrs. Grant died short
time ago. Dom Piatt is publishing a
paper at Washington City. He is one
of those very abusive men who too ofte n

saying that it was imprudent, SO soon
after the death of her father. Fred.
Grant is a young man, and son of Mrs.

large canes. or clubs, and went to Piatts

The Cincinnati Commercinl one day last
week had the following among its tenn
perance items:
New vienna, o. Jan. 13.-The temper
ance question, which has been raging for
some time in Washington, Hillsboro and
Wilmington, broke out here a few days
ago. Mass meetings have been held
daily, and to-day was the appointed time
for the ladies to visit the saloons and
hold prayer meetings. The church bells
were all kept ringing while the procession
passed from one saloon to another
Everything passed off satisfac-
factorily and quietly until the ladies
reached the den kept by man named
Van Pelt-the wickedest man in Ohio.
Crowds of men and boys Aocked around,
anxious to see if this demon in human for N
would carry out his threats previously
made. When the ladies entered the
saloon they were ordered to leave in so
many minutes. Not to be frightened,

We have no further solicitude about
the failure of the fool killer to do his
duty. He is not needed. They can do
the work without his aid. Recently a
whole family in Missouri were burned by
a lamp explosion, two of, whom were
dead at last accounts, and here is an
other case:
'URBAEA, January 16.-Last Tuesday
night daughter of Jesse Ritter, who
lives in Adams township, this county,
was burned to death. The family had
retired, when the young lady, at 10
o'clock, attempted to fill burning lamp.
The fluid ignited, and the flames com.
municated with the can, which exploded
throwing the burning fluid over and
completely enveloping her"

they commenced their devotional exer-
cises. When the words May the Lord
baptize him with his holy spirit" were
spoken, Van Pelt hurled bucket of
filth ywater at them, saying &c d-you,
I'll baptise you. Several buckets of
water were thrown, but the ladies hero
ically stood to their post. although
drenched with dirty water. Water fail
ing, beer was thrown by the keg, until
the ladies were compelled to retire to the
outside of the door, where they concluded
their devotions. Meanwhile Van Pelt
stood at the window, relieving himself OF
all the filthy epithets known to that
class of men. When the procession
started to leave, the door was thrown
open and all invited to come ln-that
they could have whisky by the pint or
halfpint, to suit customers. Great IN
dignation is felt at the outrage, and 1t is
highly probable that the saloon will be
totally annihilated and numbered among
the things that weret before another day
has passed.

c. P. Tracy, prominent citizen of
Portsmouth, died very suddenly on last
Friday morning. The Times gives the
following account of his death:
Last Thursday evening the Rev. New
ton Stanger of ALI Saints Church, in COM
pany with Mr.. Tracy, Mr.. lowell and
Mr.. Yoakley visited dwelling on Fourth
street, below Jefferson street, to hold
one of a contemplated series of Cottage
prayer meetings. When near the close
of the exercises, and at about half past
eight o'clock, Mr.. Stanger called on Mr.
Tracy to lead in prayer. Mr.. Tracy knelt
and began to pray, but after uttering q
few sentences. his voice faltered articula-
ton ceased, and Mr.. lowell observed
him leaning heavily on his side against
the chair. He caught him to prevent
him from falling, and his friends placed
him upon a litter and started for his res
idence When near the corner of Fourth
and Court streets, he asked-"are we
nearly home p This is all he said from
the time he was stricken until his death
which occurred at o'clock yesterday
morning. During all the weary hours Of
the night he was unconscious. The cause
of his death is said to be paralysis, the or

We publish in another place from the
Cincinnati Commercial, an account of the
conduct of one Van Pelt, liquor seller
at New Vienna, The following appeared
in the Commercial a few days later:
New vienna, O., January 1o-The
Temperance people seem to be getting
the best of the fight to-day. Van Pelt,
who was arrested for throwing water and
beer upon the ladies, now occupies apart
ments in the county Jail, being unable to
procure bail. Should he succeed in get
ting out, other charges are ready to be
brought against him, and he will be re-
turned to Jail again. His brother has
taken charge of his saloon, but allows the
ladies to enter and hold their devotional
exercises daily without molestation
Only two saloons remain open, and they
no doubt will soon be closed. The tenn
perance people are highly elated ovel
their success thus far, and are laborine
| with renewed strength.

Cushing as nominee for Chief Justice.
He was found to have been rebel dur
ing the early months of the rebellion.
A letter was written by him to jeff Davis

tion of Cushing was the greatest mistake
of Grants life, always excepting his
taking of the increased salary steal.
