I eat in my room on a midnight dreary, Counting the rain on the roof; Hearing the roll of the wheels aweary, And the clank of tho horses' hoof. Hearing the fall of thc distant feet That echoed along on tho sleeping street. And tho hollow song of a roistering rhyme Striking in'with thc clang of the midnight chimo. I sat in my room while the gas burned tow, On the dead-white chamber wall. While pale and haggard and full of woe, And strangely lank and tall, A stonv figure in silence stands, Watching tho moves of my trembling hands; Wat ming tho drop of my weary eye, Wita a dim, grim smile at my every sigh. I gazed at this figuro in solemn awo, l'his spectre so gaunt and gray, Who came not by the bolted door, With his ghostly, shadowy way. I saw that the rags on his shrunken form Were dripping with wet from the midnight storm; I saw him shriveled with pain and cold. And his face looked prematurely old. With a shiver of dread iu every vein, I spoke to this man of stone, And every word ho spoke again Wore tho echoes of my own. "What dost thou here in thc midnight deep, When tue world is lapped in its sweetest sleep?" "What dost thou herc," he said again, "When tho pillow claims thy wearied brain?" "What art thou, thing of a bloodless life, Whose presence is death and shame; AVhosc everv word is thc stab of a knife, What is thy dreaded name?" For a moment "Hashed his eyes in light. Then darkened again, as iii endless night; "Whoever shah know, shah never forget The time when he wore tho chains of DEBT." "Whoever shall once, in a thoughtless way, Wear those golden chains for me. Sh ail labor and toil for manv a day Before his limbs aro free. At first my chains of burnished gold, Aro worn in a rich and gorgeous fold; But they grow in weight, and they grow in 8?3U, With every speedy hour that flies. "But I, with a magic all my own, Can change these chains of gold; I can turn them to iron, and cat the bone, And gnaw the flesh till the heart grows old;" Till the clothes shall hang in a filthy shred: Till the eyes shall look like the oyes of the dead; Till the arm shall die in its palsied pain, And the blood run cold iu each icy vein. "Who weareth my chains shall know no hope, Shall crave no length of life; Shall die by drug, by knife and rope, Or live in blood and strife." With his golden chain tho shape he draw nigh; I sprang to my feet with a shuddering cry. There's nothing to hear but the swell of my scream And nothing to see but tho mist of a dream. BISHOP SOUTHGATE.-They tell a story of Bishop Southgate which is too good to be lost. He, as all -who knj?vut?nr~ir>01^--ma^ifies his office aakes much orchis talents. Some chums of his, who RneW-l&m in his earlier days, made a visit to his church to look on the dignity that they used to chase over hills and help over tall places in his lesson. The visitors were plain country persons from away down East, and never knew much of fashionable churches or the symbols that are placed on the altar cloths and chancels. On enter? ing the church the well known ini? tials, "I. H. S.," ina conspicuous place, in large and elegant gold let? ters, attracted their attention. One said to the other, "There, just look at that. Just like him. . Got his name up-I, Horatio Southgate." NOT A CITIZEN OP THE UNITED STATES. -One day during the present term of our Circuit Court, friend C. was drawn as a juryman in a capital case. Judge Bugbee put the usual questions to him. When he asked him if he was a "citizen of the United States," he replied, "no," and added, "now Judge, you know Alabama is not in the Union, and none of us are citizens of the United States." This created quite a laugh in Court. Our friend was not joking; he was m sober earnest, and still contends that he is not a citizen of the United States, but of "conqueredprovince."

THE ONLY RECOGNIZED DEMOCRATIC NEWSPAPER PUBLISHED IN NEW YORK, DAILY, SEMI-WEEK? LY AND WEEKLY. TO THE PCBLIC. THE NEW YORK NEWS HAS BATTLED against despotism for four years of blood and tenor, in assertion of thc sanc? tity of the Constitution. A patriotism sufficiently broad to embrace both sections has been its onlv guide, and it refers nev with honest pride to its record to show that ?t i.as nnt '.urned to the right or the left under all the violence of arlotrary power. True to its principles as THE NEWS has been through the reign of terror, it chal? lenges public confidence in its honesty and independence for the future. The political transition of the present dav opens to THE NEWS a new and wider field of usefulness. Standing now, as it always has, on the inviolability of the Con? stitution, according to the interpretation of tho strict constructionists, it presents a rallying ground for nil, in both sections, who are friends of a generous conservatism. As a trite ind tried exponent of ST?Bwnal amity" it occupies a position which makes it the fitting mediator in holding up to the party of order, in both sections, interests and principles that gave breadth and vi? tality to their alliance. As an intersec tional agent, devoted to freedom of elec? tion, to trial by jury, to the sanctity of the habeas corpus, and opposed now, as for four years of terror it has been, to the cen? tralization that dares to trample on the rights of States, North or South, THE NEWS places itself as a candidate for sup? port before the great body of this once free people. The circumstances of the moment make tho dissemination of the principles of THE NF.WS a duty of individual patriotism. Every man who concurs in its doctrine must, if he entertain a true sense of free? dom, do so in no spirit of indifference, but rather with the earnestness of a high trust. Justified, nay bound, in his love of liberty, to do so,the proprietor places the canvass lie makes here of the pub'ic generally in the hands of those men who give him the ap? proval of their consciences as his individual agents. F2very reader of Tur. Nf.ws ctnnot avoid tho conviction of duty which is here pointed out, as the ground of tho request, that he urge? its claims for a wider support Upon all nt his friends and neighbors who p;ivc their earnest sympathies to the causo of ''strict construction, intersectionalcon? ciliation, and all the rights of the citizens under tho system set up by our fatbeis of liberty regulated by law. Tho proprietor of Tun Nr.ws calls, therefore, upon good and true Conservatives througnont the country, to discharge, to their convictions of political right at this fjroat crisis in the country's fortunes, the duty of giving to the influence of his paper, daily, semi? weekly or weekly, thc; wider power for ??ood which it socks here through tho servico of its individual supporters.
