Songs of Liberty.

Mr.. Robert Underwood Johnsons Songs
of Liberty and Other Poems" appeared at
the holiday season in the mass of Christmas
books and for that reason received only
passing mention. We have since required
to it in the spirit of elaboration in which
such verse as Mr.. Johnsons should be read.
Mr.. Johnsons poetry is of the kind that APP
peals principally to cultivated people. He
does not deal in those commonplaces Of
sentiment which are most readily accepted
by the great body of readers. His "Apos-
trophe to Greece with which this volume
opens is, however, a ringing and moving
poem which could hardly fail to impress
anyone capable of appreciating verse OF any
character. Mr.. Johnson prints also
Song of the Modern Greeks" which closes
with these StanzaS:
Greece's blood made many an altar
For the nations then unborn;
Will they with her peril palter-
Give her gratitude, or scorn?
oh, could Earth and Time assemble
All thy iegions, Liberty,
At their tread the world would tremble
With the passion to be free.
In 1.-The Voice of Webster Mr.. Johnson
shows not only a fine appreciation of Web
many thoughts that are near the heart OF
all who truly love their country. He says:
When Hayne arose It was Sumter's gun
was heard.
When Webster closed t was Appomattox
field.
He appreciates the necessity of wars,
but it is toward peace that he prefers to
look, as in these lines from the same poem:
My country! since nor memory of strife,
Nor natural vengeance, nor the orphans
tears
Can from Loves nobler triumph hale thee
back:
Who worthier than thou to lead the way
Unto the everlasting truce of God,
When brothers shall toward brothers over
sea
Stretch not the sword blade. but the open
palm.
Till on Times long but ever upward slope
They mount together to unreckoned heights,
And grateful nations gladly follow them!
The same spirit breathes in the strong
moving blank verse poem called Hands
Across Sea- The idea of a close brother
hood between the two great Anglo-Saxon
nations naturally appeals to poets. and of
late it has been voiced by many essentially
practical people. We find throughout Mr.
Johnson's book many single lines of great
force and beauty. There is a volume OF sug-
gestion in the line
by no sword save her own falls Liberty"
found toward the end of Hands Across
Sea-" and this poem is impressive through
out. The paraphraSes from the Servian of
1ovanovich after literal translation by
Nikola Tesla, the eminent electrician, are
exceedingly interesting. But our own pref
erence is for the initial poem of the volume.
the "ApoStrophe to Greece" which is dis
tnguished by rare metrical skill. and which
abounds in lines that stick in the memory.

At it's last session. the general
assembly made material changes in
the statutes relating to the posting of
lands. The law is as fellows:
Section l76-Every entry upon the

weeks such notice in any newspaper
circulating in the county where such
lands are situated, proof of the
posting and of publishing of such

Examine Your Change.

Charleston is being flooded With
counterfeit money. Somebody appears
to be showing the bad stuff in a
wholesale manner, and the favorite
pieces are niokels, quarters aud half
dollars. There are more 6ve-ceot
pieces than anything else. Ooe
conductor on the city railway bad
twelve bad nickels offered him yester-
day. Tbs money is made Of lead and
the pieces are good limitations, though
little rubbing will show at oace that
the coins are bad. A number of lead
quarters and half dollars have been
found.
Complaint has been made TO the
police department of the counterfeit
money, and close watch is being kept
to 6ud. if possible. where the "queer"
is coming from. It is thought that
a very large quantity of the stuff has
been put in circulation here, and the
fact that one street car conductor found
a dozen bad nickels il day goes to
show that the market is being choked.

public against the bad moDey.-News

Extend the Time.

Gov Ellerbe has announced that be
will not exercise the authority given
him to extend the time for the payment
of the taxes of the present fiscal year.
In his judgment there is now no good
reason for such extension. To this
extent Gov. Eile:be is very much
mistaken. At the same time it must
be said that be cannot be criticised for
the position be has taken. Clothed
With authority, be must use it discreet
ly. In the exercise of bis discretion
be might properly authorize the exten-
sion. If be prefers to leave the matter
to the judgment Of the Legislature soon
to assemble. there can be 20 objection
to bis course
But the legislature should extend the
time The people who ask this iudul-
gencs are not tax dodgers: They have
GOT willfully delayed payment. They
have had so many other demands upon
their income thar they are not just now
able to pay taxes.
If it be urged that the people are as
we'll able to pay up 10 December as they
will be in January or February, the
plain answer is that they are the best
judges on this point. The fact that
they ask the extension is enough to
justify it As before stated they are
cot dodgers. They are good citizens
asking the States indulgence. The
legislature will 6ud 90 good reason to
refuse it.-Columbis Register.
