Flor?.'? Oftrimf to Spring.
BT M. LOUISE KOO SSS.
O, earth I all bathed with blood and tears,
ye? never
Hast thon ceased patting forth thy fruits
and flowers. - L. K. u
SMOKO.
Awav 1 away ! ye wintry throng,
Make room for mirth, for bloom and song I
Now genial suns and gentle showers,
Shall robe '.he land in green and flowers,
On bill, in rale, and smiling plain,
For spring has come to earth again;
And Nature, from her death-like sleep,
Awakes to life, to gladly keep,
With all her joyous, blooming band,
Her annual revel through the land.
I've brought. O Earth, my winds of balm,
And bushed the storm into a calm;
And over skies of sombre hue.
I've thrown a veil of beamy blue;
I've scattered gems upon the grass,
And where my fairy footsteps passed,
A flower sprang upward in my path,
And smiled ou me like some sweet wraith
So glad that I had called it forth
From outside its grave within the earth.
I came by gardens, drear and wild,
And tue frost-king, with a freezing smile,
Withdrew, and then my magic wand
Waved over all, k nd lo I the land
Grew flashed with green and bursting
bloom,
And beauty t*x>k the place of gloom.
I came by thc dreary wood,
That had" the wintry storm withstood:
I touched tho boughs, all bare and brown,
And myriad little buds were blowu,
And bung about the limbs and stems,
Like pendant strings of emerald gems.
"Twas I unbound toe streamlet's flow,
And sweet it laughed in ripples low,
Or mad, wild glee, as on it gushed,
Till all tbe birds, whose notes were hnshad,
Glanced swiftly through the budding trees,
And sung such joyous airs and glees
Such burst of song, it seemed the notes
Would rend in twain their tiny throats
All hearts and home with gladness ring,
To greet the joyous face of spring.
FLORA.
Hail ! gentle spring, to thee I bring
The best of Flora's offering;
Flowers both sweet and fab*, liko you,
Emblems of youth aud beauty, too.
Andflrst, the inuit ?flora rose.
That by the babbling streamlet grows;
The jasmines, too, yellow and white,
Their emblematic powers unite,
And speak of elegance refined,
With amiability combined.
The hawthorn comes with mystic art.
Emblem of hope that cheers the heart;
Next, roses, red and virsriu white,
Their hues, all beautiful, unite;
Ami the fragrant pink, of modest worth,
That loves tue spring that gave it birth;
The crocus nert comes, blithe and gav,
To greet you on this festal dav;
The daisy's snow-white crest presents
A symbol of sweet innocence.
8jow-drop, thou herald of the spring.
Hasten upon thy balmy wing, ?
Refinement graven on "thy brow, *
Haste.i to greet our lair spring now.
Veibeuas, now, with brilliant hue, V
Tlieir homage pay, as others do;
The amaranth. I proffer thee
Hlesttype of immortality.
L JALUKJT the 'vaiieyi haste to bring
I Thy offering to our gentle spring:
I Tlie olive branch, I'm sure, you'll love,
I Borne by that bird of rest, the dove;
* I bring sweet peace, it seems to say,
.- To all who greet this spring-time day
The dark green pina, I offer last.
It has a melancholy cast;
A long f.. re well it gently sighs,
Like some sad heart that breaks and dies.
*.*#*?*.
Now, gentle spring, so fair and bright,
, May we aa sisters here unite,
4 Aud, hand in baud, we'll ever roam,
And have one country and one borne.
A Cari Cat oJT* With an Axe.
"Do you."see this lock of hair?"
said ac old man.
"Yes; bat what of it? It is, I sup?
pose, the cori from the head of a dear
fjh?d long sinos gone to God."
e "It is not. It is a lock' of my own
hair; and it is now nearly seventy
:^Jgmr& since it was cat from this
ISP?!."
. "But why do you prize a lock of
your own hair so much?"
"it has a story belonging to it, and
o^. strange one. I keep it thus with

-0ccl and bis "special caf? than any
T?Eng else T possess.
"I was u child foar years old, with
cur"y locks, which, in sun or

ed. One ?ny Thy father went into the
wojJJS^T?at up a log, and I went
MM^mh him. I was standing a little way
behind bini, or rather at his side,
watching with interest the strokes of
the heavy axe, as it went up and came
down upon the wood, sending off
splinters with, every stroke, in all
directions. Some of them fell at my
feet, and. I eagerly ttooped to pick
them np. In doing so I stumbled
forward, und in a moment my curly
head lay upon tho log. I had fallen
just at the moment when the axe was
coming down with all its force. It
wasJ?bo fctte to stop the blow. Down

wound which he was sure he had in?
flicted. Not a drop of blood nor scar
was to be seen. He knelt upon the
ground and gave thanks to a gracious
God. Having done so, he took up
the axe and found a few hairs ur?o:i
its edge. He turned to the iog Lo
had been splitting, and there waa %
single curl of the boy's hair, sharply
cut through and laid upon the wood.
How great the escape! It was as if
an angel had turned aside the edge at
tue moment when it was descending
o'n my head. With renewed thanks
upon his lips, he took up the cu/laud

Impeachment.
Th? .well-informed Washington cor?
respondent of the Cincinnati Com?
mercial Writes :
The impeachment of the President,
long whispered at, ia now openly ad?
vocated, and the echo is caught upon
by such newspapers as the Chicago
Tribune in demands for the imme?
diate arraignment of Andrew John?
son for a series of high crimes and
misdemeanors, which they find it
very easy to enumerate. In a former
letter, I stated that the President had
been informed, on authority that he
could not question, that it was the
intention of the majority in Congress
to attempt his impeachment as soon
as they should have secured the ne?
cessary vote in the Senate to carry
out this scheme. The President lis?
tened to what was said on the sub?
ject, and replied that he had every
reason to believe it was true.
It may be said that all speculations
on this head are groundless, because
the President hos committed no crime
for which he could Le impeached.
Bat give the extremists the numerical
strength in the Senate, which they
hope yet to have by the admission of
Colorado, and the succession of Mr.
Stockton, and there will be "primus"
enough found against' ! . Ln u very
short time. The men who seek his
conviction are the men who will sit in
judgment upon him, and as it will be
for them to judge as well what con?
stitutes a high crime or misdemeanor,
as whether such high crime or mis?
demeanor has been committed, their
power to convict will soon resolve
itself into an act of conviction.
The same journals that now advo?
cate the impeachment of Mr. John?
son, pretended to be in terrible con?
sternation a short time since lest he
play the role of Cromwell or Napo?
leon, and astonish our pure and sim?
ple democracy some fine day with a
coup d' etat. Finding that the Presi?
dent will not take the initiative ."n the
revolution they are so anxious to
bring about, they now urge their own
political friends to do so. They must
not, however, be led iuto the delu?
sion that because Mr. Johnson will
not play the role of Cromwell, he
will therefore sit quietly by und per?
mit Congress to make him share the
melancholy fate of Charles. He will
do no such thing, unless lie diste
gards the advice of his best friends.
And men who think nothing more is
necessary in order to secure the va?
cancy of the Presidential chair tor
political purposes than for the House
of Representatives to order the arrest
of Andrew Johnson in such articles
of impeachment as it chooses to draw
up, will find, when the matter comes
to be tested, that they have reckoned
without their host. It would be well
for those who now demand the in?
auguration of another civil war, and
who will generally be found among
that large class who kept steadily out
of the late conflict, to count the cost
before they go any further, and to
give some more reasonable assur?
ances than their own promises that
they will be in a position to say
"come on," when the crisis arrives,
instead of "goon," as they content?
ed themselves with saying during the
late war.
The country may as well under?
stand now as be compelled to learn il
when too lato, that the impeachment
of the President means the inaugu?
ration of a civil war, which must be
fought out, not in the distant South,
and along the Mississippi River, bul
in every city and village of tht
North, commencing in the city ot
Washington.
It having been stated in the New
York Tribur.c that the editor cf th?
National Intelligencer had, previous
to the veto, written and placed ir
type an article approving of the civi
rights bill, that paper denied tin
statement and asked for the proof.
The Tribune correspondent, whe
originated the report, replied thai
"the statement was made upon th?
admission of Mr. Snow, one of th?
editors, to a member of Congres:
that such was the fact." The Intelli
gencer, thereupon, says: "This papei
is edited by gentlemen whose name;
are not printed in its columns. \V<
have the authority of Mr. Snow foi
denying that he ever made any sue!
statement as that imputed to him.'
This is tracing ?nd nailing the Iii
direct.
A SUGGESTION.-Apropos of Sena
torial elections, we would most re
spectrally suggest to our radica
friends in New Jersey and Vermon
the name of H. S. Foote, once o
Mississippi, neit of California, thei
of Tenne see, and now of any Stat
that needs his services. Ile itin ad roi
and unscrupulous politician, an
capable ot representing any opinion!
or shades of opinions, that may b
Che fashion.-Richmond Dispatch.
A Cincinnati paper thus reports
recent lecture by Anna Dickinson
"She spoke to the people, arni wit
?neb ."igor did she assert lier righi
as an inspired instructress of tl
igoraut public, that whenever a pot
fellow lu the audience sneezed, si
called upon him, in a voice like tl
blast o? a bugle, to talk like a mai
or forever hold his peaes-and 1
held his piece."
SOUTHERN POST OFFICES.-On
i fourth of the persons just appointe
to take, charge of the twenty-foi
{>ost offices re-opened in North Car
ina and Virginia are women. Tv
cf the women previously appoint?
' could not take the o.i^.
The radical carnival at Washington
! during the past week, was marked by
acts of lawless and utterly unscrupu
I lous wickedness, which brand the
dominant party as open, avowed and
shameless revolutionists. They out?
raged individual rights with the fierce
audacity with which the sans culottes
of Paris onco hurried their victims
to the scaffold without the formality
of arraignment or trial. They tram?
pled upon the Constitution with the
glee with which the Japanese are said
to defile the Holy Scriptures.
In the face of the most positive,
conclusive and undeniable evidences
of bribery, f rand and corruption upon
the part of thc contestant, they ex?
pelled from the House of Representa?
tives Mr. Brooks, a leading conserva?
tive member from New York. Stock?
ton, Baldwin, Voorhees and Brooks
have thus been driven from the seats
to which they were elected by their
constituents as unceremoniously as
Cromwell thrust an English Parlia?
ment ont of doors-at the point of
the bayonet. But when eleven States,
whose citizens obey the laws of the
United States, and who bear all the
burdens imposed upon them, are de?
nied their constitutional rights, cases
of individual outrage cease almost to
attract attention.
But the victory of the radicals in
passing the civil rights bill by a two
thirds veto in the Senate over the
President's veto, was the crowning
triumph of the enemies of the repub?
lic. The guilty joy of long baffled
burglars in a bard-fought triumph
over a strong box of treasure would
be tame when compared with thc
frantic delight of thc revolutionists
iu their recent evidence of strength.
To them a victory won by faction
over a patriotic President is as sweet
as the odor of a good act to an honest
man.
As we predicted ten days ago, the
expulsion of Stockton, the death ol
Foot, the sickness of Dixon, and the
defection of three Republican Sena?
tors who have been classed with tin
conservatives, gave the radicals an
easy victory ju the Senate. As al]
parties agree that there are already iu
durance vile in Thaddeus Stevens'
greasy pocket more than two-thirds
of the House of Representatives, thc
triumph of the civil rights bill may
now be regarded as positively certain.
The crack of the whip in a day 01
two will be heard in that body, and
the well-drilled flock of goats will
clear the veto with a bound.
The scenes which marked the
triumph in the Senate of this mon?
strous bill carry us back to those
hideous days in the history of the
French Revolution of 1798, when ii
yelling, shouting, bloody and homi?
cidal mob crowded the galleries aud
dictated to the French Assembly.
The galleries of the Senate, crowd
ed with frantic radicals and exultan 1
and reeking blacks, must have bornes
striking resemblance to a happy re
union of the gentle inhabitants ol
Bedlam and Pandemonium. How
Morgan, Stewart and that other de
serter from the ranks of the conserva
tives must have enjoyed the swed
incense offered to their apostacy it
the groans, applause and shouts o
the dusky representatives of th<
freedmen's villages adjoining Wash
ington! What delicious homage tc
the flexibility of these men of weil
back-bones!
In what contrast to this exhibition
of revolutionary violence is the eulin
bold attitude of Andrew Johnson
The keen intelligence of the patrio
statesman of the White House pene
trates the mists of error, rage ant
selfish demagoguism which havt
blinded the disunionists, and rest
securely upon the verdict of a grea
people. He can afford to wait; for h<
knows that the pathway over whicl
every great nation has toiled to great
ness is whitened with the uuburiec
and unhonored bones of just sud
parties as that which now yells it!
senseless and frantic joy overa victon
which insures their final annihilation
There are numerous cases o
chronic individual insauity, but whil<
a great nation may be goaded t<
temporary madness by wicked de
magogues, reason always resumes he
throne.
This madness of the hour has al
the fierce violence of the tornado o
the tropics. It sweeps everythinj
before, and works swift and terribl
ruin, and lie. who gazes upon its traci
and marks its ravages is oppresse,
with gloom and sorrow. But it din1
not alter the great conservative law
of nature. A few years roll by, an
plenty, order and the abundant gill
of Providence efface all traces of tit
tempest.
The wild, resistless radical tornade
cannot be stayed by the veto of th
President. It must now sweep on t
its end, ?md of the tragical end of
party so utterly lawless no sane mu
can entertain a doubt.
