HENRY T1MROD.
Lecture by Gen NOISE Before the
Tenth Grade.

Gen. Noise gave q delightful talk at the
Graded School Thursday moroipg TO the mem.
bers of the 10th grade, on Henry Timrod. the
famed poet of South Carolina. The follow
ing is in part an abstract of bis lecture:
Poetry is the expression of sentiment !;
sentiment is refined thought. Poetry
is not rhyme: for the poetry of our greatest
poet does not rhyme. A man of sentiment
sees beauty in nature that the uoinitiated
csnuotsee When Byron was young boy
at school be, with all the members Of the
class, was asked to express as best they could
the meaning of the miracle of the turning Of
water into wine Byron wrote, "The con.
scious water saw its Makers smile and
blushed." This expression revealed the
presence in Byren's mind Of re6ned senti-
ment, the sine qua non condition of the poetic
temperament Timrod's poetry is natural,
because be pct in verse the events Of his life
and experience. Gen. Noise then read Tim
rods beautiful little poem, "CourtsEip," and
commented as follows:
This is not 80 dsshing aud flashing az
Byron would have written, not 80 soft and
love-sick as Moore would have written, not
go descriptive as Scott, nor 80 original ss
Shakespeare, bat it is natural. The violet is
90. the most flashing of aowers, but it is the
most beloved.
Then followed Praeceptor Amat with the
comments: Such natural thoughts would
probably have passed through the minds of
many, but none bnt poet could thus have
preserved them in permanent form.
The Shouting Wind was then read, and as
it was so beautiful We give it in full i:
Hark to the sboutiog wind
Hark to the flying rain
And I care not tho never see
Albright blue sky again.
There are thoughts in my breast to-day
That are not for human speech;
But bear them 10 the driving storm,
And the roar upon the beach.
And o, to be with that ship
That watch through the binding brine,
o wind for thy sweep Of land and sea
O sea! for voice like thine
Shout on, thou pitless wind
To the frightened and flying rain
care notstho' I never see
calm blue sky again.

OAKLAND OFFICE SAN FRANCISCO CALI
90S Broadway, March 4.
This afternoon the last carload OF the
property of the Salvation Army was
moved from the Eighth-street castle.
The old building has been purchased for
$400 by the owner of the land. and its
C ances are about equal of being trans
formed into a cheap dancehouse or large
Chinese laundry.
The castle on Eighth street. which is
well known on account of its peculiar
architecture and great size, was the first
the Pacific Coast. and over the door the
sign "Cal. T. can stiil be seen after twelve
years OF exposure to the weather. When
the army was young, the headquarters for
the Pacific Coast and their trade depart
ment were guartered on the uppsr floor,
while The meetings were held downstairs
With the immense growth of the
army, the place has long since been
discontinued as headquarters, but was
kept up as a training garrison and
Westinghouse. Two years ago the
town grew away from the location Of the
barracks and the corps removed to the old
Peoples Theater on Twelfth street, leav-
ing the old castle for dormitory for the
cadets.
During the past few days the officers in
training have been moving their belong
ings, and now the historic battle-ground
of the early days of the army is entirely
deserted by the people who built it. The
castle was built By the donations of DAYS
work by enth usiastc followers. The lum-
Der was purchased on credit and paid for
in after years, and local contractor
named San 1erson was prominent in su-
pervlsing the building. 1t was consid-
cred bad business proposition to build
such large structure with only ten
years lease but the city grew westwar
so rapidly that it was abandoned as a
meeting house before the expiration Of
the lease. Scores OF officers Ill over the
coast and many now in the East have
been stationed or trained at the castle
which was bu lit in the time of Brigadier
Fielding. who came from England, and
VINO join ed the volunteer movement
some months ago.
