I m--- CHARLESTON, SATURDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 9, 1871. _ . , '; TENNYSON'S NEW IDYLL '.TUE LAST TOCJIXAMEXT." Some Appetizing K.xtiacts from the Lat? est Poem ol" i lu Laureate. The announcement o? a new poem of a thou? sand linc3 by Tennyson, stirs the pulse all the more that the poem if sell is l<? come immedi? ately upon the announcement. It la an unex? pected pleasure, a something n??t hoped for. a gratification which is not. to tease us with de I lay and is heralded by no flourish of trumpets. '.The Last Tournament" is another Arthurian Idyll of the same warp and woof with the mag? nificent tapestries of the aire of knighlly ro? mance already woven by Tennyson. The poem la Bubdned-almost sombre- in col? oring anil tone. The wail ot November winds is hi every line. The hero Is Slr Tristram, one of the younger knights of *?ftc Hound Table, in whom lhe growing moral degeneracy of the lime dims the glory of mar? tial deeds. Ile is the lover of Queen bolt, of Hrltain, wbois wedded to Hie brutish and be? sotted Mark. At the conclusion ol" the last tournament In which Hie Knights ol the liouud Table engage. Slr Tristram, victor in all the Jousts, rides lorth to visit bolt, who has been immured by lier jealous lord In the lonely cas? tle ol'Tintagil. .Since he saw her last hellas married a namesake ol the Queen-the fair, white-haired Isolt, ol' Brittany, whom he does not love; and as he rides, his mind 13 vexed with devising how lo smooth lt over to one he loves as well ns his shallow nature can love. To please her and show lils devotion, he car? ried Hie rich prize ol' the tournament to hang about her neck. The meeting is beautifully described : Then pressing day by day thro' Lyonesse Last iu a rocky hollow, belling, heard The hounds or Mark, and felt the goodly hounds Yelp at Ins hem. but turning, past and gained Tlntagil, hair ia sea, and high on land, A crown or towers. Down in a ca'cment sat, A low sea-sunset glorying round her hair Aud glo?sy-throatt d grace Isolt the Queen. And when she heard the reel or Tristram grind Thc Bpiriug stone that scaled about her tower. Flushed, started, met him at the doors, and there Belted his body with her white embrace. Crying aloud "Not Mark-not Mark, my soul : The foots ep fluttered me at first: not he; fat-like thro' his own casu* steals my ?ark. But, warrior-wise, thoa sir dest through his halls Who hates thee, as I him-ev'n to the death. My soul, I reit my hatred for my Mark Quicken within me, and knew that thou wert nigh." ?o whom Slr Tristram smi lng, "I am here, et be thy Mark, seeing he ls not thine," And drawing somewhat backward 9he replied. "Can he be wrong'd who la uot ev'n his own, But s ve for dread of thee had beaten mc. Scratch'd. bitten, blinded, marr'd me somehow Mark? What rights are bis that dare uot strike for them'' Not lift a hand-not, tho' he round inc thoa : But hearken, have y? met him r hence he w. nt Tc-dav ror three days'. Miling-as he taid And BO returns belike wltiiln an hour. Mark's way. my soul!-bur eat not thou with him. Becaus?. he ha>ea thee even more than rear*; Nor driiu"; and when thou passest auy wood Close visor, lest an a row frnm the bush Should leave itieall alone with Mark mid hell. My Cod, the measure ?>r my hntc for Murk, ls as Hie measure ol my love for Thee."' ?So, placard one way by hate and one hy love, Drain'd of lier force, nguiu she sat, and spake To 'l ri.-11 am, as he knelt before her, saj mg, "O hunter, and O blower ol i lie horn. Hamer, and thoa hast been a rover fem, For, ere 1 mated with my Shambling king, Ye twi.iti had rallen out about thc brute or one-his name ls out or nie-thc priz'\ ir prize sue were- (what marve:-she could s-^e) Thine, friend; ami ever since nw oravi II seeks To wreck thee villainously; but, O Slr Knight, What dame or damsel have yo kueeied io last f Sir Ti ?strain equivocated, and Queen Isolt, saddening at his weakness, cries om: "1 had rorgottcu all lu my strong j >y To see thee-yearnings --aye ' tor, nour by hour, Here in . lie never-ended afternouo, O sweeter thau all memories of thee.

And Tristram, fondling her light hands, replied, ' Crace, Queen, lor being lovett: alie loved mc Well, jj??fci Did I love her ? The name at least I loved. isolt ?-1 fought his battles, for Isolt ! The night was dark; tue true star set !-Isolt ! The name was ruler or the dark-Isolt ! care uot ror lier ! patieut ami praycirtd, meek", Tale-blooded, she will yield herseir to Cod." And Isolt answered: "Yea, and why not Ir Mine is the larger need, who am not meek, 1'ale-blooded, prayerrul. Let me tell thee now. Here one black, mute midsummer night I sate Lonely, but inusiug on thee, wondering where, Murmuring a light song. 1 had heard thee sing, And once or twice 1 spake my name aloud. Then ilash'd a ieviu-braud; and near me stood, Ju runilug sulphur blue aud green, a tiend Mark's way to steal behind ono in the dark Fort here was Mark: 'Delias wedded her,' lie said, Not said, but hls3\l it; then this crown or towers So shook to such a roar or ail the sky. That here m utter daik I swoon'tl away. And woke nguiu in utter darn, and cried, '1 will dee hence and give my self to Hud,' And thou wert lyiug iii thy new Ionian's anns." Slr Tristram becoming a little weary of her ' reproaches and sad mood, remembers the * jewels he had brought to adorn lier willi, ami while she was still speaking, and letting -one linger lightly touch The warm white apple or her throat, replied, "Press this a little closer, sweet, until Come, I am hunger'd und hair anget'il-meat, Wine, wine-and I win love j hoe to the death. And out fe youd into the dream to come." soti:en, when both were brought to full accord, She rose, and set heron- lum all lie will'd; And after these bad comforted the blood SV'ltli meals.ind wines, and satiated their hearts Now talking Ol their woodland paradise. The ilrer.ihe dows, thc fern, the ronnts.tlic lawns; Now mocking ut the much ungainliness, And craven shifts, anti long crane legs of Mark Then Tristram laughing caught the harp, and sang: 'Ay. a,. o av-the winds t hat bond the brier ! A star in heaven, a star within the mere ' .Ay, ay. O ay-a Mar was my desire; And one was far apart, anil one was near; Ay, ay.

Then in Hie light'* last glimmer Tristram siiowM And bwung the lui y carcanet. She c ted, "The collar ot some order, which our King Hath uewiy rounded, all ror I hoe, my soul. For thee, to yield thee grace bayoud thy poors." "Not so, my Un .cn," he saul, "hut thc roil fruit drown on ,i magic oak tree III mkl-lieaveo And won by ti 1st nun as a tourney-prize.

Out >f the dat K, just as the Upi hail loucliM, Rebind him rose a shadow aud aatirtek "Mark's way," said Maik.and clove him thro' the brain. The poem closes willi a picture ol sombre? d?solation: "Tllat night came Arthur home, amt while he cliiub'il, AH in a death-dumb autumn-drtpping gloom.
