BRYANT,

The poem written by BRYANT to cele-
brate the centennial Of the battle of Ben
nington indicates that the fire of his genius
burns rs brilliantly as ever, notwithstand-
standing his extreme age. He was one of
miration of the world, and prove that this
country was capable of producing original
literature equal to the best possessed by the
mother country. One of the most pleasing
incidents connected with the centennial
celebration Of the battle Of Bennington is
the fact that our most venerable and illus
trious poet was able TO contribute poem
of such high excellence for the occasion.

The serious illness of Senator MORTON
causes great anxiety to his numerous

diana cntitlc him to the gratitude of all pa
triotic Americans. In the Senate he has
been conspicuous as Republican leader,
and necessarily incurred enmities growing
out of his decided but manly course as q
partisan. While we regret his recent utter
anccS on the southern question, we do not
doubt his sincerity or patriotism. We
hope TO hear of the Senator's speedy and
complete recovery.
