The following lines were written in
1879, by Mr.. John Bell, of Warren
county, just before his death, with a
request that Mr.. Shelton Grimsby read
them at his funeral:
Farewell, old Time, ere thou hast reached
the morn
Thy sun shall gid his wings in Capricorn;
Lies stormy firth shall pass DER,
And cast my anchor on the eternal shore,
Where all is dateless, endless, infinite,
And being has no measure but delight.
Farewell, thou sun, and yon bright planets
all.
That roll in silent beauty round the ball;
| g0-l go to that celestial sphere
Where Jesus shines through one eternal
year.
Farewell. thou Earth, and all that earth
contains
The graceful hills, green meadows, flowery
plaps-
leave thy wave-worn shores without
sigh
A Fathers mansion house. a Masters Joy
Invites me hence; | unreiuctant go
Where pleasure never wears a fringe of wo.
| Farewell to Honor-Pm enrolled above;
My plume, my crest is Love-redeeming
Love;
| BY His dear hand that bled read my name
| Written among the living in Jerusalem.
| Farewell to pleasure, vanities and lies,
| | 80 to drink river in the skies;
Farewell to houses, gardens, orchards, lands,
/ have house above not made with hands
Farewell to knowledge, first of earthly
things,
| go TO drink 1t where the fountain springs
| Clear from It's source, pellucid and refined,
| The dregs of muddy error LETT behind.
Farewell to Death-I shall forever bloom
| In youth s fresh oveliness beyond the tomb.
Farewell to Frends--I leave the social ring
| And fly to Eden on scraph's wing.
There ceaseless bliss and sun, bright know
| ledge reign,
| No friends to vex me, and no vice to stain ;
But friendship formed by love-oh, angel
powers,
| Receive weary pilgrim to your bowers
Oh, let me listen to your golden Tyre,
| And burn like you in loves seraphic fire.
| The weakest, meanest, poorest sinner take
| To your sweet fellowship, for Jesus sake
| Farewell to books and all polemic strife,
NY name is written in the Book of Life;
| Farewell to party, and each various ism,
My souls Amounted with the sacred chrism;
Has found a cline untinged with party gall,
! Where all are one. and one is all in all
soon shall sing on yon celestial shore
Pm safe Pm safe! Pm safe forevermore.
| Farewell, my dearest wife-l'm 10th to part
| With thee, the joyand solace OF my heart
, With thee, the dear companion of my care,
And bliss, when had any bliss to share.
| But Jesus calls me to his hlcst abode

The election for the fifth term OF
Henry b. Anthony, the Senator in Con-
gress from the State of Rhode Island and
Providence Plantation, as the ancient
title still stands, is an honor accorded to
but one other public man in all the Ma
lions history, the other case being that
Of Thomas II. Benton, who served for
thirty years as a Senator from Missouri.
Senator Anthony is one of those rare
personages who can entertain and eX-
press strong convictions without making
enemies among his opponents. lie is q
great favorite in the Senate, where he is
honored for his nobility of character
trusted for his wisdom, admired for his
eloquence, and beloved for his generous
traits and courtly bearing. May he live
ong in the land.

The Lcaycn Works.

The Vicksburg Herald pays THE Re-
PUBLICAN the compliment of reproducing
one of its editorials advocating the i'm
provement of the Mississippi River by
the Federal government. Our contem-
porary is kind enough to give editorial
notice of our earnest plea in behalf of
this great national project. Parties and
administrations have trihed with the
question of the fullest possible develop
ment of the capacity for the uses of
American commerce of the Mississippi
and its tributaries. President Arthur has
met the question in manner strikingly
contrasting with the furtive and evasive
treatment it has heretofore received.
The policy which the President recon-
mends, and which recent Democratic ma
jorities in both houses of Congress have
not favored, presents the antithesis of
parties as they now stand, and strongly
proclaims the title of the Republican
party to the sympathy of the constituency
of which the Vicksburg Herald is the
able and candid exponent. Our es-
teemed contemporary, despite his
Bourbon affiliations, frankly avows
the obligations of hispeople to President
Arthur for leading his party in the great
work Of developing the resources Of the
Mississippi Valley. 1t is a question above
the interests of party and superior to the
mere legerdemain Of politics, Nevcrthe-
less, we cannot forbear to ask the Ncks-
burg Herald, FOX whose opinioRST have
great respect, how long its readers might
have had to wait for even suggestion
of the relief which President Arthur
earnestly recommends from n Demo
cratic administration and Democratic
Congress.
After ALL the candid compliment paid
the President by the Herald merely
states the gravitation of the thinking
Southern people toward the Republican
party as voiced by the broadly national
and American policy of President Arthur
He won the respectful consideration Of
the Southern people when, in his frs
annual message to Congress, he refu sec
to recognize such an entity as "th'
South MS u factor in present American
politics. Thus he condemned scctiona
politics, and asserted the universal aspir
aion Of Americans of all sections for ,
better unde rstandiug Of all local tradi
tions, interests, and associations. IL,
supplements the sentiment thus ASSERTED
by him, and responded to by the South
with practical recommendations for th'
material help of that section.
