Behold the shape our eyes have known
Once more in cbangeless stone; ,,.-..
So looked in mortal face and form,
Oar guide through peril's deadly storm.
But hushcd the beating heart we knew
That heart so tender, brave, and true;
Firm as the rooted mountain rock;
Pure as the Quarre,'s whtest block.
Not his, beneath the blood-red star,
To win the soldiers envied scar.
Unframed he battled for the right
In duty's never ending fight.
Unconquered, with unslumbering eye,
Faith such as bids the martyr die.
The Prophets glance, the Masters hand,
To mold the work His foresight planned.
These were His gifts what Heaven had lent,
For Justice, Mercy, Truth He SPENT
First to avenge the traitorous blow,
And first to lift the vanquished foe.
Lo thus He stood in dangers straight,
The pilot of the pilgrim State,
Too large His fame for Her alone
A nation claims Him as her own.

RETURNING REBEL COL0NLSTS.

The United States steamship Swatara is soon to
leave the Brooklyn Navy Yard and proceed to the
coast Of Brazil, on . somewhat novel mission.
At the conclusion of the war Of the rebellion
g,eat many Southerners left the country and re-
paired to Brasil, where = cordial welcome was ex-
tended 10 them and where the conditions Of soil
and climate were very similar to those they had
enjoyed when at home. They formed several lit
tie colonies along the Brazilian coast, some of
coffee, tobacco, &C., while others devoted theiG
attention to the raising Of cotton. Though for q
brief season those separate colonies managed to
succeed, the majority Of those who formed them
found 0at ct last that the new country in its form
Of government, IS well as in the habits and Gus.
toms Of its people, was unsuited to their natural
tastes and nclinations, and from this time forward
to the present the little colonies have been under
Q steady decline. The Southerners found that
there was between themselves and the people
with whom they had settled q positive social and
commercial antagonism, while The negroes upon
whom they had depended for the management Of
their crops we're 50 totally unlike those they had
used in the south that it was impossible to man
age them. Our government, hearinglrumors to
this effect few years ago, sent out man-of-war
70 one Of the colonies referred to above, and Of
fered to bring back to the United States all par
ties that for any cause had been led to forsake
their country at the close of ithe war. Several
hundred people accepted this official invitation,
and were subsequently, landed safely at Port Roy
81, S. G. A little while after this, upon being ad.
yised . second msn-of-war went out to Brazil and
brought back several hundred more, and now the
Swafara will proceed upon similar mission.
which is expected to be the last one, it is pre-
snmed that she can bring back home the remain
der Of the Americans at present residing there.

1t would seem to be the opinion of some in the

us that ours is the only nation in the world where

The execution of George Spcer took place Fri
day afternoon, 8th at the County Jail in Fayette-
vile, Georgia. He spent over half an hour in
protesting his innocence and stating his hopes Of
salvation, and, although he declared himself rec
onciled to death, he seemed possessed with a
vague idea that the solemn surroundings were
only intended to force him to confession. Dur
ing the course Of his remarks he made reference
to Q white man present, who became excited and,
drawing Bowie knife. attempted to break through
the line Of the guard. Great excitement and con-
futon followed for = moment and many, fearing
3 general row. deeamped Order was soon re-
stored and the excited man taken in charge. At
two O'Clock precisely the prisoner was placed on
the scsfo.d with the single remark, "Good-by
George, your time has come The Sheriff's axe
fell and severed tine cord that stood between
George Speer and eternity. HIS feet were not
tied and be kicked violently for moment. In
twenty minutes his body was cut down and
handed over to his friend fer burial. His neck
was not broken by the fall. No attempt was
made At . rescue. The outrage on Margaret
Millsaps, child OF twelve, for which srcer was
hung, took place on May 30. AT his trial, Au-
gust oath, he was identified by his victim.
