UNDER THE vE0LETS.

Her hands are cold; her face is white;
Nomore her pulses come and go;
Her eyes are shut to life and light
Fold the white vestures, snow on snow,
And lay her where the violets blow.
But not beneath craven stone,
To plead for tears with alien eyes;
a slender cross of wood alone
Shall say that here a maiden lies
In peace beneath the peaceful skies.
And gray old trees OF hugest limb
Shall wheel their circling shadows round,
To make the scorching sunlight dim,
That drinks the greenness from the ground;
And drop their dead leaves on her mound.
When DER their boughs TIM squirrels run,
And through their leaves the robbins call,
And, ripening in the autumn sun,
The acorns and the chestnuts fall,
Doubt not that she will heed them all.
To her the morning choir shall sing
Its mathis from the branches high,
And every minstrel-voice OF spring,
That frills beneath the April sky,
Shall greet her with the earliest cry.
When, turning round their dial-track,
Eastward the lengthening shadows pass.
Her little mourners, clad in black,
The crickets sliding through the grass,
Shall pipe for her an evening mass.
At last the rootlets of the trees
Shall find the prison where she lies,
And bear the buried dust they seize
In leaves and blossoms to the skies.
60 may the soul that warmed it rise
If any, born by kindlier blood,
Should ask what maiden lies below d?
Say only this: tender bud,
That tried to blossom in the snow.
Lies whitening where the violets blow.

Attack on the Presidents Title = Mr.
stephens to Mr.. Potter.

Alexander H. Stephens has written a let
ter in reply to Clarkson n. Potter, in which
he defends his position in regard to the res
olutfon ordering the investigation. He re
iterates the views already expressed by him
against the reopening of the Presidential
election controversy, and condemns any
agitation of the subject, saying he looks
upon the whole of this proceeding, cot coct-
ed as it has been, as most unwise, most un-
fortunate and most mischeyous. Its effect
will be to disturb the peace. harmony and
quiet of the country. Neither Mr.. Potter
nor anybody else can prevent it, and I say
to him most respectfully that nothing short
OF an immediate, general and firm concert
of action, Of the law and order abiding peo-
pie of all parties, Republicans and Demo-
Gratis throughout the Union, in rcprobation
of this investigation proceeding any further,
with view to disturb the Presidential title.
such as announced by the Pennsylvania De-
mocracy few days ago, can arrest the most
fearful consequences. Those who have,
though innocently, suwn to the wind will
reap the whirlwind. Ny own opinion is. as
have repeatedly stated, this affair will
prove in the end either contemplate farce
or horrible tragedy. Whether it will lead
to the Mexicanization of the federal repub-
lac, the result must show. But | say, as !
said on another recent occasion, that all soft
words instilling in the minds of the people
of this country the idea that Mr.. Hayes can
be peaceably unseated by Congress, are de-
luslve and as guileful as the whisperings OF
the great arch-fiend in the shape of a toad
in the car of Eve, from which sprung all our
woes.n
