SONG TO CELIA.

 And I will pledge with mine; Or leave a kiss but in the cup And I'll not look for wine. The thirst that from the soul doth rise
 Doth ask a drink divine, But might of loves nectar sip
 I would not change for thine. I sent thee late a rosy wreath,
 Not so much honoring thee. And giving it hope. that there
 It could not withered be. But thou thereon didst only breathe,
 And sent'st 1t back to me, Since when it grows, and smells, sweaA
 Not of itself, but thee.

cers who have been permanently ap- pointed to the American army since the close of the Spanish-American war have been Southerners, and yet President Roosevelt found 1t in his heartlessness on Decoration Day at Arlington to de- nounce all these and their immediate ancestors-all the people of the South. This knight in buckram who is comman- der-in-chief of the army and the navy stopped so low then, waded so deep into the mire of demagogy. that every true Southern heart is still hot with nameless resentment against him who would be- foul and islander the Southerners living and the Southerners dead All the con ditions. all the circumstances considered, no speech more infamous has ever been uttered as MT. Roosevelt spoke in the weird grove of Arlington. No words are too strong to condemn him. no reproach too bitter to aim at this man of the White House who glories in a stolen military glory which he is no more en- titled to than any 2O-year-old boy plow- ing in the fields of Alabama.
 In all that bitter harangue in the pres ence of the unreplying brave who died In valorcus arms, he preached the glory of but three men-himself and Lincoln and Grant. For the souls of Lincoln and Grant. brave and noble leaders, all of us pray the good God to give them peace As for MT.
