$J<rct's C?nttr. THE TTEW YEAR. The year is dead?gone to the shadow land, Borne o'er the tide of Death's cold mystic river; It comes not back to walk this earthly strand, But sleeps beside the years gone on before, To wake no more 'Till Heaven's bright dawn break's o'er our world forever. Amid the archives of the unknown world, Are laid the ills we've wrought, the good we've done, Aud future days await to be unfurled, As now wo herald in the new born year ; And so't is here? Another page in Time's great book begun. We deem the future opens far and wide; There in no future her?; 'tis all to-day ; E'en now stern Azrael whispers at our side, "Within the book of Fate write what you will, Of geod or ill: The day is dawning?Time brooks no delay." Then on this purs and freshly opened page Let words ef truth, immortal deeds be traced? May'fVer irach neble theughts our soul's engage, That if perchance we bid th'is year adieu? Our page review? - -There shall be naught we fain would see erased. An Eloquent Tribute to the Wo? men of the South. The.following beautiful compliment to tho daughters of Mississippi is from a re? cent, address delivered by Gen. Albert Pike, in DeSoto county, Miss.: Mothers, wives, sisters, daughters of tho men ot Mississippi, I cannot speak to you. No angel has touched my lips with the burning coals from the altar of the sacri? fice. I leave to others the fine phrases and the empty compliments that you would not ^alue. What you have done in tho past is sufficient guarantee of your ' heroism and devotion in the future. You have more than rivalled, you have excell? ed the women of Saragossa and Verona, and the Hebrew matrons and maidens who helped to defend the holy city of Je? rusalem against the legions of Vespasian. Ton will also do your duty in the days, dark or bright, that are to come. You will teach those who love your fidelity to principle amid all temptations to prefer honor to prosperity, and the dangerous truth to the safe and profitable falsehood; constancy and courage, and the manly and hopeful endurance that befits a man. You are the conquerors who take all men captive, and whose silken fetters, stronger than tempered steel, we are glad and proud to wear. Into our souls your eyes seem like stars, and we bow down and -worship, and in love find new strength to undertake great enterprises or endure great calamities. 0 ! flowers sent to us by the angels from the garden ef Paradise, you bloom here to bless, to encourage and to console. We are all your slaves. Age gives no exception from that service; for, in the sad and sober autumn of our days, TTe still covet the loving smile and loving look that can be ours no more. The sober autumn of ourdays! Feryou,the bright and g'ad anticipations of the future, the dreams that make youth's happiness; for us the memories ot the past, of joys and sorrows intermingled, of hopes and-loves, and bitter disappointments and cruel losses, of. the day:) that are no more. Our country, also, our own dear Southland t' at you love so well, has its memories ef the past, of a glad, bright dawn and a morn? ing full of promise, that darkened into a dtyfullof gloom, and terror, and disas? ter. Out of that darkness the faces of . our dead look sadly, and pityingly, and lovingly upon us. *f hey have not died in vain. The land they died for shall j-et reap the fruit of their great sacrifice. Our country, also, has its hopes, that are not delusive for the future. To it, the sober autumn aays have not come?nor even those of life's summer. For it, the rosy days of spring have not departed, though the immortelles planted by angels bloom on many graves. Grant's Policy.?Apparently a man can have a policy and not know it. The idea that the President elect is a person without a policy seems merely to have flowed from a misunderstanding in regard to tho use of words, and is part of the difference that arises between the com? munity and a man who never heard a thing "called by that name before." Grant has, in fact, very positive ideas on a great many subjects, and as the world pretty well knows that he is a man who sticks to his ideas, we shall be astonished if these firmly held views do not in time make a very substantial fabric of policy move puzzling than pleasing to Congress. He has, for instance, rather close no? tions on national expenditure and simple thoughts in regard to economy. He be? lieves that a nation in debt, as this nation is, and actually not meeting its obligations already incurred, has no right to go on incurring new obligations; and we fancy that tho plain people will concur with him in this. Here, then, is a point of policy of the most extensive import. It is sound in morality and in finance, but we cannot hope that the Congressional jobbers will accept it. There i..? now no doubt that amicable relations between the President and Gen. Grant will soon be rt-established. The Christmas amnesty proclamation received tho entire approbation of the President elect before Mr. Johnson's signature was put to it, and as it is well known that the General has been consulted on various other important State matters, it is fair to presumo that nothing remains to eon firm the entente cordiale between tho out? going and the in coming Executives but tho formal shaking of hands. Gen. Grant is determined to have peace.?New York Herald. Death of Ex-Governor Morehead or Kentucky.?The Vicksburg Times, of the 24th, announces tho death of the Hon. Charles S. Morehead, ex-Governor of Kentucky. This sad event occurred at the plantation of Governor Morehead. It appears that his gin-house was announced to be on fire, and that he started at onco for the scene of the disaster. As he was nearing the gin, the flames burst through the roof, telling too plainly the story of its doom. Tho shock was too great. Governor Morchoad sank to the earth, and in a moment moro his proud spirit had passed away without a word or sign. Governor Morehead must have been near? ly seventy years old, and as an unselfiish patriot, an unswerving friend, and a most genial and honorable gentleman, he had not bis superior. Alaska.?We have seen numerous de? scriptions of our nowly acquired powe? sions in the extreme Northwest; but none so graphic, quaint and pungont uh ih*?fol? lowing, extracted from a private letter ol an officer in tho United Slates service, who Spent sevoral months omitting along the coast of Alaska last summer: I wonder what So ward bought Russian America for? If I owned a nigger and should catch him up there of his own free will, I would certainly either sell him or let him slay there. The sconory was very grand and wild; loo mueh bo, I think, to be enjoyed. You go hundreds of miles through inland passages, not wider, in many places, than the Hudson river, with great mountains rising right out of tho water, and lifting their heads in the region of perpetual snows, where no white man has ever been, and where no sensible man will ever go. The whole coast is fringed with a net work of such waters, enclosing ar? chipelago after archipelago of islands, from one mile to fifty miles long. I did not know, nor did anybody aboard our ship know whether we got sight of the main land or not during the entire voyage. The Coast Survey is a good institution, and has done great servico to the science of geography, and it is possible that it may have been in the scheme of Provi? dence to give it a perpetual lease of lifo; certainly if it is ever extended over that wilderness of waters, the officers engaged upon it may exclaim, "A thousand years are as one day" in such an undertaking. This is one good thing. Thore is an? other. The timber on the globe is not exhausted. Tbero are enough ceder trees on man}' of the islands up thero to make the telegraph poles for a lino around the globe. Say the line is 25,000 miles long, and we want forty poles per mile, and we would require one million poles. Why, sir, you would not miss that number. I certainly saw enough timber last Au? gust, just sailing along among the islands, to build all tbe railroads and telegraph lines now on the globe, and half a dozen lines of each clear round it beside*. What ; there may be in the interior 1 don't know. Conflict of Races in the South.?The news that comes to us almost daily from tho South about conflicts between the whites and nogroosshowsan unpromising state of things. It indicates, indeed, a conflict in the future between the two ra? ces as .irrepressible as that which existed between the North and South on the sub? ject of slavery. And what is the cauBe ? ! Radicalism. Northern carpet-bag radi? cals, with a few radical Southern scala? wags, make the deluded negroes their tools, and bring about these conflict?. The mass of Southern whites everywhere do ?iro peace and to live in harmony with the negroes under the new order of things. They are aware that their own welfare depends upon this, as well as that of the colored folks, and strain every nerve to maintain friendly relations with the ne? groes; but the radical fire-brands will not permit that. If these conflicts continue they will assuredly inaugurate a general war of races, and in that case the negroes must go to the wall. "Blood is thicker than water, and the whites will rally to? gether against the blacks. In such a war the sympathy of the white people of the North, too, must be with their own race. The pretended radical friends of the ne? gro aro really his worst enemy and aro preparing the way for extinguishment of his race in this country.?New York Her? ald. A Singular Will.?A lawyer in New York was recently called on by.a maiden lady to draw up her will. She was reia ted to one of the oldest families in 'New York, and has takeu much pride in tho fact. Always a regular church-goer and devoted to its welfare, and now with the yiow of doath before her eyes, she has in? structed her counsellor, an aged man and a veteran in the professional ranks, to draw her will. The subject matter of the will was as follows > After providing that her funeral expenses be paid, and. she al? leges, having no debts to pay, she devised and bequeaths all her estifle, both real and personal, to a certain religious corpo? ration for the purpose of building a church on ground to be bought for that purpose; then, after she had remained in Die vault long enough, she directs her executors to use her dust and entire remains to make mortar with to lay tho corner-stone of the edifice, thtis giving all her property, both real and personal, and even her dust, to ftiild a house of God with ; and asfho has devoted herself as faithfully as she knows how during her lifo to the interests of her particular church, so at and after death sho still does all in her power. The will was so drawn. Lace Cotton.?A variety of cotton, says a Southern journal, called laco cot? ton, is being introduced in some parts ot Texas, and is likely to be extensively raised. It is said to bo superior to any other variety for poor soil or uplands, having a 6trong healthy growth, and yiel? ding heavily. Its strength is equal to a strain of seven and a half pounds to each thread, while a similar thread of the best American cotton will lift only five pounds. Those who have examined it say that it resembles Egyptian cotton, 'which is worth in England a quarter more than American. Good results are anticipated from a cultivation of this variety of cot? ton. If it is successful it may quiet gen? erally supersede the poorer qualities, and largely increase tho income of the South? ern planler. How He Proved It.?It is the custom in Mexico for the church to require a for? eigner, wishing to marry a native, to bring proof that ho is not alreadj' a married man. An American, about to marry a se norila of very good family, was required to furnish proof of his being a bachelor. Not finding any of his countrymen who knew him sufficiently well to testify lo this fact, he determined to supply the de? ficiency with the oath of a native. Meet? ing a Mexican in the street, whom he had never seen bofore, our countryman pro? posed to him that he should swear to hit; being nn married, for the consideration of five dollars. The senor, after a moment's study, told tho "Gringo," "Get down on your hands and knees and creep about." Not exactly understanding what ho was at, he obeyed, much to the detriment of his unmentionables. The other partv then told him he was all right; that i/o would swear that ha had known him time tho ttnio ho crawled! A Startling Prediction.?Professor lii'onidas, an nstrologist of Indianapolis, publishes the following prediction : 1 observe by the planets that a dread? ful plague will commence in .Russia, orig? inating from silks brought over from Cairo, Egypt, and Turkey. It will ex? tend across tho Baltic Sea, and will deso? late Germany, cause, immense mortality in England and then spread to the United States. This dreadful epidemic will spot tho people like a leopard and turn their flesh to a purple black. The pestilence will carry off such an amount of mortals that there will not bo enough left to bury the doad, or give them Christian burial. Tho streets of our cities, towns and villa? ges will be swarmod with the dead and dying* The groans and yells of horror will fill every breast with consternation. On all sides confusion will abound. The death-knell will cease to toll an the mala? dy rages in fury. The stench ol the dead will become so common that the survivors will not heed it. [ ? The Charleston News s&ys that Sen , ator Sprague, of Ilhode Island, at a din? ner party given to him the other day at the Charleston Hotel, by a few leading citizens, said that "it would surprise the people of the South, and still more sur? prise the people of the North, to know? what is a fact?that the best cotton fac? tor}' of its size and kind in America is to be found in the city of Augusta, Georgia; and that in looking at the subject from a manufacturer's point of view, taking the production's per hand and per spindle, and comparing them with the work in other mills running on tho same class cf goods, he found that these Southern goods were equal to any of their kind seen in the Northern markets." ? A train of omigrants from North Carolina, which lately passed through Richmond, Missouri, toid the local editor that they lelt the "old North State" bo cause the "bottom rail was on top" there now.
