 President Wyman's Power of Song.
 Under the head of "The Wizard Dream, the Lafayette Sun of July "A reproduces from it's files for 1885 some verses written by pr. William Stokes Wyman, now pres ident of the Alabama University. Some one sends the Sun hither with the mar ginal note, q think this should be The Wizard Stream;' and so, clearly, the title verses:
 launched my boat on the wizard stream,
 In the mornings early glow
 watched the waters sparkle and gleam And the wavelets come and go. The winds that swept from the fiowery lea
 Were laden with odors sweet,
 And my soul was attuned to the melody Of the Naiad's tinkling feet. l ''Whence art thou, bonny brook" I cried,
 That singest so soft and low? l Where in the hills is the pebbly bed,
 From which thy waters flow?' I The breezes held their odorous breath,
 And the flowers bent low to hear; 1 But the Nymphs low laugh in the depth beneath,
 I Alone fell on my ear. All day reclining in my boat, l I float far down the stream,
 My soul adrift on the tide of thought
 As in charmed dream. l At eve I. wake-to dream no more;
 Mid storm and flying scud,
 I see the wild waves lash the shore
 My brook is now a flood.
 "Whither art rushing, o mystic tide, l Whither so restlessly? l Into some ocean drear and wide, Or into some quiet sea2''
 -I hear no voice but the sea-wraith's cry,
 No sound but the winds loud moan, While the night sweeps down from a star less sky,
 l drift toward the dark unknown. i There is the note of the entrancing spirit of real poetry in those lines, and they disclose one of the happiest elements in the character of the great educator and scholar, whom all Alabamians love to love and delight to honor-the quality of which has made his life beautiful and true, and widely useful! 1 President Knox and General Oates.
 The Age-Herald has related the fact that the Constitutional Convention of Ala bama ordered printed for distribution 5000 copies of President John B. Knox's speech in support of the suffrage plan of the ma jority of the suffrage committee, including the grandfather clause" and the regis tration provision, against which the Age Herald, speaking for all the people, has consistently protested
 The Age Herald today relates the fact that MT. Beddow, delegate of Jefferson, was yesterday unable to obtain consent of the convention to in like manner print the speeches of the eminent delegates who found themselves not in agreement with President Knox
 The Montgomery Advertiser of yester- day made public this reference of General William c. Oates to President Knox's speech and it's extra publication, namely:
 q opposed the publication of the speech unless there could have been published with it the speeches of myself and the delegates who had spoken against the grandfather clause. MT Knox's comment on my speech was utterly unfair-as much so and as narrow as special pleading by a shrewd lawyer. All that I desired was that his speech, with its unfair criticism of what said, should not be sent broad cast over the State without that part of my speech so unfairly criticised to ac- company it. am not egotisticf All want is to be treated fairly. I esteem him as man of ability and patriotism. and 1 would not do him nor any other man .un- fairly The convention ordered 1000 copies of Chairman Coleman's Introductory speech and now 5000 copies of President Knox's speech, made after every member who signed the minority report had spoken and had, under the rules, no right to reply, is not fair to the minority and the coun> f try" tT'.
