A Grand Poem The following poooi la said to bit* bssn delivered by Kin Liszie Dotsn, a spiritual trance speaker, whilst under the influence of the spirit of Edgar A. Poo: From the throne of life eternal, From the home of love supernal. Where the angsla make tnuelo o'er the starry floor. Mortals, I bnve oome lo meet you, And with words of peaoe to greet you,*^^ And to tell you of the glory that Is miae forevermore. Onoe before, I found a mortal Wailing at the heavenly portalWailing out to oatoh some echo from that ever?opening door ; Then f seised this quickened being, And through nil his inward seeing, Caused my burning Inspiration In a fiery flood to poor. Now I c>me more meekly hamio, And the week lip* of e women, Touched with fire Irons off the (Iter, not with burning, es of yore, But in holy love deoending, With Iter chsstened being blending, I will fill yonr eoul with mueio from the bright celestial shore. As one heert yeerne for another, As a child turns to it* mother, From the golden getee of glory, turn I to the earth once more ; Where I drained the eup of sadness, Where my eoul wss slung to mndnese, And life's bitter, burning billows swept my burdened being o'er. Here the harpies and the ravens, Human vampires, sordid cravens, Pi eyed upon my soul and subttaooe, till I writhed in anger sore; Life and I then eeemed mismsted, For I fell aeeursed and fated, Like a restless, wrathful spirit, wander* | ing the Stygian short. Tortured by a nameless yearning. Like a fire-frost., freezing, burning. Did the purple, pul?iog life tide through its freble channels pour ; Till the golden bowl, life's token, Into shining shards was broken, And my chained and chafing spirit let from out its prison door. But, whilst living, stirring, dying, Never did my spirit cease crying: " Ye who guide the Istes and furies, give, oh ! give roe, I implore? From the myraid host of natioos, From the countless constellations, One pure spirit that can love me?one that T, too, can adore." Through this fervent aspiralioo Found my fainting eo< 1 salvation; Far from out its blackened fire quick did my spirit aoar. And my beautiful ideal, Not too saioty to ba real, Buret more brightly oo my visit n than the fancy formed Lenore. Mid the (urging eea ahn found me, With the hillowa breaking round me. And my eaddened, sinking spirit in her arms of love upbore; Like a lone one, weak and weary, Wandering in the mid-night dreary, On her sinless, saintly bosom, brought me to the heavenly shoreLike tbe breath of blossoms blending, Like the prayers of saints aaoending, Like the rainbow's sevenrhued glory, blend on souls forevermore ; Earthly lust and loro enslaved me, But divinest love hath saved me, And I know now, first and ooly, how to live and how to adore. l?, my mortal friends and brothers 1 We are each end all another's, And the only soul which gives most freely from lis treasures bath the more. Would you lose life, you must find It, And ia giving love you bind it, Like an amulet of safety to your he?t forevermore. Baltimore, August, 1872.

FOR THE LADIES. GRACE BROWN." ?-:o:?Grace Brown was tbe pet of the village?pretty, lively, *and, like all pots, very self-willed; but the effects of this latter quality were softened down and rendered quite lovable by her open, geaerous disposition, which would not allow hor to injure another, even to gratify that ruling passion. Some said that Grace thought herself sufficiently handsome, and termed it vanity. True, perhaps, when each Sabbath morning found her ready decked tor the suuny walk to the parish church oti the hiltside, or the week-day's evening saw her in her little chamber window plying her needle?yes, perhaps then, as she caught a sidelong glance at herself in the little mirror, she might think it no such great wonder that the young men gased as they passed her, or that they looked so curiously at the bow-pct6 and flowering geraniums perched on the sill of iter casement?perhaps, too, she might think they cast a glance beyond. But was this vanity ? No; Grace was as free from that hateful quality as the bird which carolled so joyously in his bright cage on the cottage wall. Vanity cannot be justly attributed to those only conscions of possessing the qualities which are theirs in reality, but to those alone who boost to themselves of perfections which they can never hope to possess. Such was the case with those who termed Grace vain. One fine autumn evening she sat, as usual, beside her gerani urns, over which was hung her little bird Pet; but the leaves of the former hung droopingly, as though to ask of their sweet mistress the usual drop of spring water, and poor Pet chirruped and hopped from perch to perch, and t unica ins yellow to&tliers to at tract her attention, but in vain.? No cooling drop greeted the sickly leaf ?no tiny finger placed a bit of sugar between I'et's cage wires. And how was this? Was Grace ill ? No ; but her thoughts were wandering, and although her eyes were fixed full on poor Pet and his companion plants, she neither saw one nor the other.? And whither were her thoughts wandering ? Only into a neighboring lane, up which she strolled whon the snn was beginning to dip liis bright head "ncath the blue tops of the neighboring hill. It was a very pleasant lane, but as its sides wero bounded by high hawthorn and wild rose-bushes, it may bo supposed Graco did' not go there for the sake of any beautiful prospect, lor her whole height was not more than the top of the hanks on which the bushes grow. For what, then, conld it be? In truth it was that there generally accompanied her thither a very pleasant companion?not her mother?not one of tho neighbor's daughters. No; buc a young man, the son of a farmer not far distant. Yes, the trnth may as well bo told. Giaco had given, or ll 1-4 ? I- - * * * uiuugnt bug naa given, lier little heart to tho companion of her strolls; and, indeed, any one to look on Idm, might imagine a better choice could not be made. Tall, handsome and athletic ho was, and his eye beamed when ho looked on her. But the}* who knew him better than Grace, said that he was wild and fickle ? Neither did they scruple to warn her of that knowledgo. But Grace would not believe. How could 6he, when she saw that, although they spoke against him, they wcro always ready to welcome him to their own homes ? Besides there was an eloquence far more powerful to tho heart and understanding of Grace?more eloquent; more easily believed than aught they could utter. Yes, the eye and tongue of William Clively were the monitors most eagerly sought, and most willingly listened to when found. IIow could she think he was deceiving her? I hero was no 5" his deep gaze on her?no harsh* nees in his voico. But there was on* who did not like him, to whom Grace had ever jet been accustomed to pay the most pro fonnd submission, because that humility had never boen forced, but even won from tier by love. That being was her mother. She bad now been sitting in this deep reverie somo ten minutes, from which she was roused by a light hand being laid on her shoulder. The blood mounted to her temples and cheek, for she knew, without raising her eyes, that it was her luothor, and she felt conscious that her mother's oyo was reading her innermost heart. She also knew she had uotight to four, tor though at this moment Iter little lienrt lmd been \ rebelling, her parent's chiding was t ever one of geutlenoss. i 44 Grace, love," spoke the moth- 1 er, gently placing her hand on the i half downcast head,44 why do yon t not go forth this evening ? See, 1 the sun has almost lost bis last bit I of crimson in the deep grey.? i Come, love, you have been sewing all day. Just throw your scart c around you and walk in our gar den." ( 441 would rather not, mamma," i answered Grace in a low tone, 1 turning her head still more from t her parent; and then, for the first f time, casting hor eyes on the i drooping plants and now sulky ] little Pet. Bnt she quickly ad- 1 dcd. 441 will water my trees and < chirrup to Pet a little, lor he 1 seems quite to have the mopes." 1 44 And how comes it that he has 1 ?!.?, 1- ?'' ? ? iiiv iiivpvs, ivrv I UgUIII BJ>OKO ner mamma. u Ah ! I see, mamma," retorted the now balf-tearfulr half smiling maiden ; " I see you have been reading my heart, and that it is useless to keep anything from you. Cut though you have seen part that was passing there, you cannot tell all I" u But I can guess, Grace ; and that, perchance, will do as well.? I doubt not you thought me very cruel?very inconsiderate in not allowing you to have quite your own way ; and I doubt not that you thought I knew very little about it; but sit down, love, and I will tell you a little passage in my own life, and after that I shall leave you to judge for yourself, only first assuring you that I have every proof that William Clively is very wild, and his father quite unable to support him in his ores ent extravagance. See here, love, X have brought my knitting; so take up your work from the window sill, and thus, while we are quite industrious, I will proceed to tell you that my sketch commences when I was about a twelvemonth older than you ore now.? At that time Grace, I was circumstanced too, somewhat as you are. You understand me. love?" flrnee I blushed and smiled. " I had a re- < belllous heart, too ; and there was 1 cne lor whom it had set up as the ( idol of its idolatry, and one whom, unfortunately, neither of my parents approved. But yet, Grace, I own that I thought my knowledge of his habits far exceeded theirs ; and all T knew of him was fair and open. Things continued thus for eighteen months, at the end of which time my eyes were fearfully opened to his vices?he committed a forgery and abscondod; though it is probable, had he stayed, no injury would have awaited him, for his friends, who wero wealthy and powerful, made up the sum for which he had risked so much, and paid it. Grace, it was some time, even then, before I could perfectly win my heart from its idolatry; but it had seen its error, and iny mind was mado up to overcome suoli perversity, and I did. Yes, Grace, I knew what it was to feel cherished affections warring against my own convictions of right. You will perhaps say that he had deserted me, and it might bo that pride rose superior to neglect and alight; but not so. lie did not desert me?he did not slight mo; tor though all others : * i?? ? -i?- ? .* v?crc igiivrum. ui ins uesnnaiion, 1 I knew whither he had fled, and from thence received a letter full of affection and repentance for pa9t follies. But, Grace, had I forgiven, or rather overlooked his vice (for I did forgive,} I never conld have placed confidence in him again. So I wrote hiin once, but that once was to discard him for ever. From that time I busied myself in work, in tending to my garden, in assisting my neighbors, and, indeed, in various ways of which I had not thought before.? I saw that people appoved my conduct, too; every eye greeted me, every tonguo welcomed mo in joyous tones; and in time my own heart grew joyous, and felt a lightness it had never known till then, even in its wildest moments of affections for tlio now unworthy. But I did not know the fulness of the happiness I was ] to reap from that one era of my t life till five years had clapeed.? < During that period, love, your t dear father had wooed me, and i knowing from all that ho wna be- i loved and respected, ho won me, c although not a fifteenth part so j handsome or so engaging in his j manner as ho of whom I have i been speaking. But ho soon I taught me to love him?I do not t tnean with the girlish wildness I < had lovod before?but with an | affection which might last through i sorrow, sickness, death ! as it has i dono, dear Grace." i Tho tears started to tho sweet i eyes of Uracc, and fell thickly I upon the little border on which ?ho was bo busily plying her leedle, as the thought of her fond father passed across her heart, ind smote it for its rebellion igainst her will to whose care he lad so solemnly entrusted her on lis death-bed. The mother was %lso silent for a fewmoments. 44 Well, love," sho at length remined, 44 you were but a few months old when, one day I was litting with yon in r small arbor n the garden of the dwelling where we then resided. On a mdden I heard the latch of the garden gate raised, and a poor nan toiled up the sunny walk.? Ele appeared in the last stage of wretohedness, and sickness seem?d to add its hoavy load of misery where already there appeared to t>e an accumulation of ills. I rose with an intention of inquiring in :o his condition, and relieving hitn is far as my means wonld permit; ind, taking you in my arms, 1 itood before him. But, Grace, I inppoee that time had not so changed me as it had done him, or no instantly ejaculated my naiden name! Yes, love, you nay well drop your work and aiso yonr eyes. It was indeed he vhom I had loved, and persisted n loving, In opposition to my pa ents' judgement. At that monent your father appeared at the loor, and when I looked on you ind him, contrasted with the vretched mass of filth that shrunk lefore me, my heart leaped with gratitude to God for teaching me o subdue my own evil passions.? four father had known, betore >ur marriage, all the circumstances concerning him and myselt, so hat a few words made known to lira the cause of the surprise picured in both our countenances ; ind to make me love and reverence him still more, that good nan relieved his present wants ind provided for his future ones, foe, Grace, your father fed, clothed, aud lodged that repentant creature in a neighboring cottac? ;ill ho rqpovered health and itrength?nay, more, he congealed lig name from all inquiring ears, ind not an eye which had onco mown could now recognize 3eorge May l" 44 George May, mamma !" "Yes, love, George Mayl Tho ante who used to pay us the yeary visit from London, to evince lis grat'tudo for your father's cindness. The same who died n our village of decline seven rears after, leaving you the Bible ind prayer-book as the only loga;y which could bo bestowed by joor, but repentant George May. 3ut now, dear, it is growing quite lark ; I will go and see our eventig meal prepared, and when we tavo taken that, pray to your Maker, and then retire to your jillow." And so Grace did; and the iext morning, when she entered ;he breakfast-room, she threw her irms around her mother's neck ind whiskered that she had gain ;d?the victory; she, too, would ry if her mind might not over some the erring indications of her leart. J n - ? - xw?, buu vrrace sncceeded ; and wenty vears after, when she saw i daughter of her own growing lp, she remembered how mildly icr own mother had won her from ier folly ; and she felt that, to be >beyed by that daughter, she must emember that she hcrselt had >nce been a wild and wilful being, ind that it is only by placing our >wn hearts in the situation of >thers that wo can hope to influence them by our own precepts. Hope.?True hope is based on mergy of character. A strong nina always hopes, and has cause ilways to hope, because it knows he mutability of human affairs, ind how slight a change often may change the whole course of events. Such a spirit, too, rests upon itself; ind if at last all should be lost, it lias saved itself, its own integrity md worth. Hope awakens courige, while despondency is the last >i all evils; it is the abandonment >f good?the giving up of the bat le of 11 to to dead nothingness.? lie who can implant courage in he human breast is the best physician. To seek to govern men by heir tears and their wants, is an inworthy purpose; the desire to ule by means of cowardgjs of itself jowardico. Love inspires courage md hope, and this is doubly the $iver and preserver of lite. Whattoevor teaches us boldly to combat the manifold evils and assaults jf life, enableo us to win the crown >t victory. Special care, therefore, ought to be taken in educating to teach what true education is, as well in social and domostic is in public affairs?and by what moans it tnay be bc6t consummated. I J 1-^JLgPThe Liberal Eleotoral Ticket for 8outh Carolina?An Address to tne People of the StateTo the People of South Carolina : On the 5th of November the people of Sonth Carolina, in common with the people of all the United States, will be called npon to elect a President and Vice-President to serve for tho ensuing four years. The course that has been pursued by the present Administration has been so subversive of all IaooI ^ ? ? ? * ,w?i oun-guvuriiinenc, and hostile to tho rights and liberties of the citizen, as to have excited the greatest apprehensions for the safety of our free institutions, and has aronsed the intelligent and Conservative masses of the nation to a nnited and determined effort to secure, if possible, the Government from the hands of its present andacions and nncrnpnlons rulers, and bring it back to its constitutional bearings. Moro than this?so alarmed and widespread has been the growth of corruption in high places as to have tainted all the fountaius of pnblic jnotice, and so reckless the use of corrupt instrumentalities by public officials as to undermine every principle of honor and honesty in the breasts of the people, and prepare the way for the rapid and almost sure decay of all public virtue. To arrest the spread of these evil and dangerous tendencies, and to 6ave to the people the substance as well as form of a constitutional republic, the citizens of all classes and parties have organized a holy, firm, indestructible alliance in behall of purity in government and sympathy and reconciliation between sections. The cardinal principles of this movement were promulgated from Cincinnati on the first of last May, aud solemnly ratified by the Democracy of the whole Union iik general convention at Baltimore ou the 9th of July. Horace Greeley, of New York, and B. Gratz Brown, of Missouri, chosen as the standard bearers of this cause, have been hailed with patriotic enthusiasm by the friends ot law, order and well rep-nlatprl o liberty throughout the entire land. 'Ihe principles which have been emblazoned upon our banner in the hopetul words of our illustrious candidate cannot die, but must and will survive even defeat, if defeat were possible. South Carolina, recognizing this as the only movement in the present crisis, culculated to overthrow a monstrous centralization, and to secure to the present generation the blessings of a juet and freo government, has, through a convention of her people, recorded her adhesion and pledged her support to the movement. While we are not permitted to speak the language of assured victory to our people in this State, it is, nevertheless, onr solemn duty to adjure them by their enlightened love of country and their devotion to its institutions, to 6uui? mon to their aid that highest fortitude in man, of fidelity to principles even in the midst of cisaater, and, rallying around onr colors, give to our candidates a manly, a generous and united support.
