MISOE!IJ,:,:JANY [From tl?' siuukr Watchman.] Thc Phantom Hort. ?Free among tho dead."- P**? ??, ?>* AIV rortn was rapt in thc Btamber That "teals from thc heart it? cares; For my very life was weary With its barren waste ol yeal!-, Bnt un soul, with rapid pinions. Fled swift to the light which hearns From a phantom sun and planets. For thc dreamer in his dreams. ? stood in a wondrous woodland. Where thc sunlight nef tied sweet lu the cups of snowy lilies Which grew about my feet; Vnd while the gothic forest arches Stirred gently with the air, Thc liliesSmdorneath them Swung their censors, pale in prayer. I stood amazed and wondering, And a grand Mcmnonian strain Carno sweeping through the forest. And died-then roso again. lt swelled in solemn measure, t ill my soul, with comfort bleat, Sank down among the lilies, With folded wings to rest. Then, to that mystic music, Through the forest's twilight aisle, Passed a host, with muffled footsteps, In martial rank and tile. And I know those grey-clad ligures, Thus slowly passing by, Were tho souls of Southern soldiers Who for freedom dared to die. In front rode Sidnoy Johnston, With a brow no longer wrung By the vilo and senseless slanders Of a prurient, rabble tongue; And near him, mighty Jackson, With placid front, as one Whose warfare waa accomplished, Whose crown of glory non. There Hill, too, pure and noble, Passed in that spirit train; For he joined thc martyred army From tho South's last battle plain. Then next in order followod Tho warrior-priest, great Polk, With joy to meet his Master, For ho had nobly borne His yoke. There Stuart, the bold, the daring, With matchless Tclliam rode; With earnest, chastened faces. They w?ro looking up to God. And Jenkins, glorious Jenkins! With his patient, fearless eyes; And the bi-ave, devoted Garnott, Journeyed on to Paradise. Before a shadowv squadron Bode Morgan, "keen and strong, And I knew Dy his tranquil forehead He'd forgotten every wrong. Then, peerless Pegram, marching With a dauntless, martial tread; And I breathed a sigh for tho hero The young, tho early dead. 'Mid spectral Black Horse troopers, Passed Ashby's stalwart form, With that proiid, defiant bearing, Which so spurned tho battle storm; But his glance was mild and tender, For, in that phantom host, H dwelt with lingering fondness On thc brother ho had lost There strode the brave Maloney, Kind, genial Adiutant; And next him walked the truthful. The lion-hearted Gantt. Then, to that solemn music, Passed a triad of thc brave [layne, Taylor, Alfred Pinckney All had found a soldier's grave. They were young and gentle spirits, But they quailed the bitter cup; For their countrv's flag was falling, And they fell t? lift it up. And there passed, in countless thousands lu that mighty phantom host, True hearts and noble patriots, Whose names on earth arc lost. There the missing found their places Those who vanished from our <*aze bike brilliant, flashing meteors, And were lost in glory's blazo. Yes, t hey passed-that noble army Tliey passed to meet their Lord, And a voice within mc whispered, "They but march to their reward." i * * * * ERROL. Hill \rp to hin old Frlemds. Mr. John Happy-SUR: I want to write to you personally about some things thats weigh-in on me. I look upon you as a friend} and I feel like droppin a few lines by way of un burthenin my sorrowful reflexions. For tho. last few years you have 1 ravelled round right smart, and must have mude a hoop of lnminus obser? vations. T hear you are now liviniu Nashville, where you can see all sides of everything, and road all the pa? pers-where you can study Paradise lost without a boole, .and see the Devil and his angels, without drawin on the imagination, and I thought may be you might assist me in my troubled feelings. I have always, Mr. Happy, endeavored to see the bright side of every pikter if it Lad any, but there is one or two subjecks about which I had mity nigh gin it up. 1 want you to tell me, if you cnn, about what*time are the black repub? licans goin to quit persecutin our people? "What are they so everlaxtin mud with us about? Old Skewbald says its for treason that we've gone .and done, and that I am tho slowest perseevin man he ever seed not to have found it out. Now treason is a mity bad thing, and any man found guilty of treason ought to bi' talked to by a preacher right under a phallus, and then lie allowed to stand on mithin for a few hours by the clock. Shore enuff treason I mean. Treason where a man slips round on the sly in time of war, and takes sides agin ids country. Just as though, for instance, I should have worked agin my suvrin State arter she had seceded, and had stole her powder, or deserted her in lier time of peril, while she was defend? ing herself agin the combined assaults of the world, the flesh and the devil. I wouldn't have blamed nobody for hanging me for the like, would you? But Skewball says we aint got no SUVreeiJ States -that the war hnv settled the question agin us. On that pint I dont think so, my friend, I admit that we aintnothin inpartikler now. bnt J we did hav suvreen States before tho wai*, and the sword amt settled, nor tiusettied no^ great princi? ples. There aint no ti*ial of right or I wrong by wager of war now adayp. For mighty nigh a hundred years this ! country have been a big debatin I society on these questions. From" ! tho time of Hamilton and Jefferson j down to 1861, the right of a State to I dissolve her own partnership have been argued by powerful minded men, and there has been more for it than agin it. Moro Presidents more Senators, more statesmen, more judges, more people. Massachusetts ! and Connecticut were tor it at one ! time, and bellere?ound and pawed dirt aniazin to git out, but they found 'out Barcus was willin, and they lilidnt go. I believe, however, that old Nutmeg did stay out about two j hours and a half. Well, the South went on mity un I willingly, Mr. Happy, as you know. ! Bile had been mity nigh kicked out for a long time, and there was a big party that wanted us to go out ana stay out. Everybody knows that we dident git along in peace, so we con eluded to do hkc Abraham and his brother-in law-to separate our house? holds. What they wanted to keep us for I never could see, and I can't sec it yet. I wonldent have a nigger or s dog to stay round me that dident want to. Some say they wanted us to strengthen 'em agin their enemies in case of a farren vrux. Does anj man in his sober senses expect us tc help the black republicans whip any? body? Have we got any worse ene mies than they are? They can't mak( tis fight, I reckon, if we don't wan to. We have font en?f ?nd mad* nothing by it but glory, and -we ain going to give another war to gratify other people. Dodds says before he't pull a trigger for Shad Stevens, he\ have his soul transmigrated to a bend leg'd fice, and bark at his daddy' mules 2,000 yoars. I wonder if th experience of the last four years ain satisfied them fellers that our boy are a dangerous set to be turne loose in the time of war. Woulden you think that as a matter of polie they would soft sodder us a little, an quit their slanderin? If we do figh for 'em, it will be on one conditio certain-they must be put vvher David put Uriah, and our boys mus consent to make a charge or two b( hind 'em with the pint of the baye net. But I want you tell me, John, if am right about this business. It air a long story; I'll tell it the way I se it. Old Pewrytan went off one da with some ships, and took a few beac and juce harps and bought up a lott captured niggers from the Hottentot or some other tots, and stole a fe more on the coast of Afriky, an brought em over and educated ei to work in the field, and cut woo? und skeer bars and so forth, but n< includin votin nor musterin, nor tl jury business and so forth. Well, artev while they found th the cold winds and cod-fish airs < New England dident agre9 with tl nigger, and so they begun to she em down South as fast as possibl Arter they had sold them and. got tl money, they j in ed the church an became sanctified about slavery, sort like the woman that got convert? and then gave all her novels away her unconverted sister. Well, tl Old Dominion and such of her soi as Washington, and Jefferson, ai Madison, and Randolf, brought e and worked em to satisfakatio whereupon Old Pew got jealous ai began to preach agin it to break down. The fact is, they woulde work gals in their faktories if it wu rent so profitable, for they are co seientiously opposed to evcrythii that dont put money in tiieir pocket After awhile, they went into t' striped almanac business, makii bloody pikters of poor laserated ni gera gettin a hundred lashes f untiling, and mourning for their fi] born because they were not. Th they started the stealing program, a: while we were tryin all the big com and little courts to git back one sit melatter by the name of Dred Sk< they were st?-alin from five to fifty day, and coverin their carcasses over with nigger larceny, and smug] the Constitution into an abolish mush. Tiley built a fence around t institution as high as Haman's galil and hemmed it in, and laid siege it just like an army woidd besiege city to starve out the inhabitan They kept peggin at us until we ? mad-show ehnff mad-and we solved to cut loose from em a paddle our own canoo. Now, all this time we had soi good friends among em-some w sworo wo were imposed upon, a said we had good cause to dissolve 1 partnership. They said that if did seseed and the abolishune made war upon us, they would sta by us and throw their lives and f tunes and their sakred honor right tiie breach, and the first fight woi be over their dead bodies, and forth and so <.n. My memory is bi but I remember that some of em wi named James Buchanan, and t Dikinson, and John Cokran, a Logan, and Ctishin and Butler, s named the Beast, and McLeruai and Steven A. Douglas who.got! commission about tho time he di and carried it with him to pa unknown, and lastly a man by i naruo of Andy Johnson, who I si pose are some distant relation to 1 President of the United States Ameriky. But a man aint respor ble for the bad conduct of his lations, and I dont throw up nobody. 1 {suppose that our Pr< dent are doing the best he can, and Mr. Ethridge onghtent to be rakin up hi? record. Well, the war come on, and show cnnf Logan and Cushin and McLer nand and Butler and Company buzzed around awhile Uko bumble? bees, till they were brought up and then they lit over on the other side. They got their reward and they are welcome to it so far as I am con? cerned. yjHow is it now. Mr. Happy? They conquered us by the sword, but they havnt convinced xis of nuthin much that I know of. All is lost save honor, and that they cant steal from us nor tarnish. If they had held out the hand of fellowship, we would have made friends and buried tho hatchet. But the very minnit they whipped us they began to holler treason from one end of the country to the other, just like they had made a bran new dis kovery. It seemed to strike um all ai unce like au Xposl fukto law, and they wanted to go into a general hangi- bisness, and keep it up as loug as they could find rope and timber. Now the idea of several millions of American freemen bein guilty of treason at once. The idea of apply? ing such a crime to eleven great suvreen States, which met in solemn convention, and in the light of day dissolved a Union they had created, and which have been a disunion for twenty years! Tho idea of appiyin treason to the Old Dominion, the muther of States and of Washington and Jefferson and Madison and Mar? shall and Patrick Henry aud all the Lees, and who have give away all the territory in the northwest for nuthin! Is she to be scandalized by these new light christians who are compounded from all the skum of creation, and think that Paul and Peter and all the Revelations hev been for 200 year* making special arrangements for re ceivin their sanktified souls in Para dise. Treason the dickens! Whererf your dictionary? Where's Dani Web ster? Where's the history of tin Amerikin revolution? No it aint treason or reason-bul its devlish infernal inhuman hate What do they keep Mr. Davis in jai for? I hear sum say that it ain't Mr Johnson's voluntary doings; but th? tremengious pressure of surrounding circumstances. Durn the circuni stances. Aint Mr. Davis a great ant good man? If Andy Johnson aint DJ infidel, woodent he swap chances fo heven with him and give all hi earthly estate to boot? If Mr. Davis honor and integrity, aud patriotism and courage were weighed in balance against Sumner and Stevens and all of his enemies, woudent h outweigh em all? Wont his eon due in Mexico and in the late war, am his nobility of character live long am grow bright in history, while th memory of the bowns that are bayi him in his dungeon will sink int oblivion? I think so-thats what say, and I'll bet on it, and Chark O'Oonner and all the women in thi country will go my halves. But there aint no particular poic in all this, Mr. Happy. Its only m; opinion, that's all. I may be a tarn* fool, and I sometimes feel like I ai a fool about every thing and dor know nuthin. I'm tryin my bes however, to take things just as the come, and my principal business ft tho last two months has been weani niggers to make em feel free. I pi em all to take care of themselves, bi they keep comiu back to me, and keeps me workin day and night 1 provide for em. I've been willin long time for em to be free if the could take care of themselves, and don't know what Thad. Stevens is fussin about, unless he is just ma because our boys burnt his ire works. If that's all, we can plea the ruins of various similar establist men ts in these regions, and get judgment against him. But I'm about through, Mr. Happ; with what I had to say. \)nly this if there ever was an afliikted peop that needed friends its us. If we'* got any friends anywhere I want e to show their hands and stand by \ in our trouble. I feel like reach out to the five points of the compa in search of sympathy, and if there an honest statesman or a brave soldi north of the line wdio loves his felic men, let him open Ids heart and me us on half-way ground. We ai afeered of beasts or varmints devils or demons-of Stevens < Sumner-but we are warm-heart? and forgivin people, and love 01 friends. Aint we and dont we?

THE ONLY RECOGNIZED DEMOCRATIC NEWSPAPER PUBLISHED IN NEW YORK, DAILY, SEMI-WEEK? LY AND WEEK! Y. TO THE PUBLIC. THE NEW YORK NEWS HAS BATTLED against despotism for four voars of blood and tenor, in assertion <if tlie sanc? tity of tho Constitution. A patriotism sufficiently broad to embrace both sections has been its only guido, and it refers now with honest pride to ita record to show that it naH nut turned to tho right or tho left under all thc violence of arbitrary power. True to its principles as THE ?EWS has been through the reign of terror, it chal? lenges public confidence in its honesty and independence for thc future. The political transition of the present dav opens to TllK NEWS a new and wider field of usefulness. Standing now, as it always has, on thc inviolability of the Con? stitution, according to tho interpretation of the strict constructionists, it presents a rallying ground for all, in both sections, who are friends of a generous conservatism. As a true and tried exponent of sectional amity, it occupies a position which makes it tho titting mediator in holding up to tho 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 tho habeas corpus, and opposed now, as for fonr 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 aa a candidate for sup? port before the great body of thia once'free people. The circumstances of the moment make the dissemination of the principles of THE NEWS a duty of individual patriotism. Every man who concurs in its doctrino must, if he entertain a true sense of free? dom, do so ia 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 tho canvass ho makes here of the public generally in tho hands of those men who give him the ap? proval of their consciences as his individual agents. Every reader of THE NEWS cannot avoid the conviction of duty which is hero pointed out as thc ground of the request, that he urges its claims for a wider support upon all of his friends and neighbors who give their earnest sympathies co thc causo of "strict construction,?' iutersectional con? ciliation, and all the rights of tho citizens under the system set up by our fathers of liberty regulated by law. Thc proprietor of THE NEWS calls" therefore, upon good and true Conservatives throughout tho country, to discharge, to their convictions of political right at this great crisis in tho country's fortunes, tho duty of giving to the influence of his paper, daily, semi? weekly or weekly, the wider power for good which it seeks here through the service of its individual supoorters.
