Milton''* Lnst Poem. 1 am old and blind! Men point at me as smitten by God's frown, Afflicted, and deserted by my mind! Yet 1 am not east down. I am weak; yet dying, 1 murmur not that I no longer see; Poor, old and helpless, I the more belong, Father, Supreme, to Thee. Oh, Merciful ?no! When men arc farthest then Thou art most near; When men pass coldly bv-my weakness slum Thy chariot, I bear! Thy glorious face Is leaning towards me, and its holy light Shines in upon my lonely dwelling-place, And there is no moro night! On my bended knoe I recognize Thv purpose clearly shown; My vision Thou hast dimmed that 1 may sec Thyself-Thyself alone. I have naught to fear, This darkness is the shadow of Thy wing; Beneath it I am almost sacred; here Can come no evil thing. Oh! I seem to stand Trembling where feet of mortal never yet had been, Wrapped in the radiance of Thy sinless hand, Winch eye hath never seen. Visions come and go; Shapes of resplendent beauty round me throng; From angel's lips 1 seem to hear the How Of soft and holy song. It is nothing, now, When Heaven is opening on my sightless cyos When airs from Paradise refresh my brow - The earth in darkness lies. In a pure clime My being tills with rapture, waves of thought Boll in upon my spirit; strains sublime - Break over me unsought. Give mc now my lyre! 1 feel the strings of a gift divine; Within my bosom glows unearthly fire. Lit by no skill of mine. Prentice on Brownlow. In all the range of our newspaper experience, the following denuncia? tion of Governor-Parson Brownlow exceeds the most bitter and withering production within our remembrance. It is from tho pen of George D. Pren? tice, of the Louisville Journal, and was excited by an article from the reverend scoundrel seeking to malign the writer of this, the most complete tomahawk effort on record. If Brown low's hide is impervious to this at? tack, then will ho pass through the fires of earth unscathed: It is most extraordinary and most disgraceful that any portion of the people of Tennessee, knowing this man as they did, voted to make him Governor of that State. Their only excuse must bo, that they were under military law, and so not really free agents in his election. No other State was ever afflicted and disgraced and cursed with such an unmitigated and unmitigahle, such an unredeem? ed and irredeemable blackguard as her Chief Magistrate. He is a paro? dy, a carricature, a broad burlesque on all possible Governors. He is a monstrosity. He is a thing as much out of nature as Barnum's woolly horse, or his giants and dwarfs, or his calf with two heads and eight legs-four of the legs pointing towards the zenith. ' His blood is hell-broth, which Satan ?will ono day sup with a long spoon. ? They say there is tire in him, but it is hell-lire, every particle of it. Though he ip '?ut a single swine, there are as n.. .y devils in him as there were in the whole herd that "ran violently down a steep pince into the sea." His heart is nothing but a hissing knot of vipers, rattle? snakes, cob?ia, and cotton-mouths. He never argued a question in his j life, approaching no subject, but with fierce, bitter, coarse, low, and vulgar objurgations. His tongue should be bored through and through with his own steel-pen, heated red hot. v This man, as we have said, culls himself a clergyman. He holds forth ; in pulpits. He preaches, prays and j exhorts, draws down his face, drops I the corners of his mouth, and under- j takes to>look sanctimonious. And, yet he seems always trying in his j pulpit discourses to seo under how ! thin a disguise he can venture to \ curse and swear and blaspheme. Ile j can't offer up a prayer in the house of \ God .without telling the Lord what j an infernal scoundrel, damned thief, j or cursed vagabond, this, that or the other neighbor is. From his youth up to his old age, he has no personal controversies without attacking the wives, fathers, mothers, grand-fa? thers, grand-mothers, brothers, sis? ters, children, uncle, aunts and ne? phews of his opponents. He has sought to strew his wholo path of life with tho dark wrecks of wantonly ruined reputations. He has never had an hour's happiness except in the in the unhappiness of others. Ho has ever said to evil, "Be thou my good!" He has always carefully jot? ted down all that he has ever heard unfavorable to gentlemen, while pro? fessing to be their friend, so as to be ready for a day of alienation. He howls venom, talks venom, breathes venom, belches venom, coughs venom, sneezes venom, spite venom, drools venom, sweats venom, stinks venom, and distils venom from his nose. Not the fuliginous exhalations from the bottomless pit, not the fire and brim? stone fumes from the sooty throat of the Devil, were ever moro blighting - and blasting than his acctirsed ser? pent breath. Ho never had a friend on earth outside of his own family. No doubt there are those who fear him for his fiendish ferocity, but no human being not of his household ever loved or respected Lim. He will ? yet have his reward. Sowing iu wrath, ho will reap in agony. Fury and hate may stifle in his heart the feeling of remo J for a time, but Nemesis, with her horrible whip, will yet scourge him around the whole orb of being. All the hairs upon his head will seem to him to be snakes like thc hissing and forkod-tongued locks of tho Eumenides. When ho shall retire, as ho soon must, from the noisy and tuniultous strifes tliat have ever engaged and still engage all his thoughts, he will not have a solitary j pleasant and serene memory of the j past. On the contrary, a store of bitter and desolate and torturing re collections will corrode and eat up 1 his very heart, untU, cut off from all human sympathies, exiled from the paths of all the beautiful genialities of life, having no friends or compa? nions around him to soothe him in his moral and physical solicitude, deserted by mankind, whose enemy he has been, and loathed by God, whose: holy temple he has sacrile? giously desecrated by his horrid mockeries of religion, festering from hoad to foot with the polluted and poisonous puddle-water in his veins, standing as an outcast and paria on the lone desert of despair, shrinking from tho past, agonized by thc pre? sent, and not daring to gaze into the future, beholding in fancy upon the door of his soul the words, "Hope comes not herc that comes to all," shut out by murkiest clouds from every star that to others lights the path to the tomb, and writhing under myriad curses and execrations piled like a mountain of living coals upon his head, he shall long atlast to make his escape from earth-scarcely ask? ing to what more dreadful destiny. A cotemporary suggests that a lady, on putting on her corsets, is like a man who drinks to drown bis grief, because in so-lacing herself she is get? ting light! Parties Holding Bonds or Coupons.
