Sat THAf would be Attic Beauty is
every where, you cau't escape her. She travels
with light and sunbeams, and renders pretty
every nook aud corner of this sphere of ours.
By the wayside of decay she rests her airy feet
awhile to dispel the shadow of death by her
smile. Ruined cities of tbe mighty past are Ivy
twined by her fairy fingers, the lightnlng-riveu
tree is clothed by her in sott greenness, the
wreck at the bottom of the great deep is
spangled by her with brilliant parti-colored
Bliells. She plants a scented flower upon the
very peak of a bleak mountain, and soiiens the
drear aspect of deserts by oasis spots. Shi's a
winsome maiden, and a kind one. Why, but
yesterday we passed, upon an open 10 the
body of a defunct "tabbv" (some ancient spin
ster's pet that yielded up the ghost before the
clubs of naughty boy6), and right from under
the throat where tbe mew once dwelt, a little
white and blue wild flower was just peepiug
above tbe ground. Tabby badu't visible frienis
to deck her bones with roses, but invisible
Beauty took their place. The vertebral column
of dead Tabby's back almost seemed to curve in
gratitude at tbe favor. Wasn't it nicely done ?

The New York World of this morning gives
the appended particulars of the departure of the
Celestials Irom American shores:
Mr. Anson Burlingame, and the members ot
the Chinese Hmbasey lelt our shores yesterday
by the steamship Java for Europe. A number
of irlends called at tbe Westminster Hotel
early in the day to make their adieus
to Mr. Burlingame and his associates in the
Embassy. Many of them accompanied the party
to the rteamsbip, and did not leave them until
they weie well out into tbe bay. About 930
o'clock they left the hotel in carriages tor the
revenue tug Jasmine, at the foot of Nineteenth
striet, which bad been placed at the disposal of
the tmbussy by Surveyor Wakemau. Here
several ot the aceompauying friends made their
final adieus, which were warmly responded to
by the CelebtiaU in terms which showed their
apprrciation of tbe hospitality they bad enjoyed
in this great republic and the estimation in
which they held its people.
On board tbe Jarmine an excellent dejeuner
was terved up, and done ample justice to by
those who had been waited Irom their morning
6) umbers. Among tbe guests were Major
Heneral Banks, Surveyor Wakeman, Mr. Liver
more, the lather ot Mrs. Burlingame, and seve
ral other ladies and gentlemen.
Ou coming alongside the Java, the distin
guished pbssengers were received by the com
mander ot that ve-sel, Cap'ain Lou, aad at
once conducted to their staterooms. In a very
short time they appeared again on deck, Mr.
Burlingame walking the promenade deck, in
company with Gsueral Banks, where he was
soon joined by Mis. Burlingame. The other
membtrs of tbe Embassy disposed of themselves
as they linted, some seeking retirement to enjoy
a tweet Havana, others curiously inspecting the
machinery and appointments of the vessel,
while some watched eagerly the large crowd
asrenibled to witness their departure
The Java was detained about half an hour for
mulls, but at length cbe steamed out ot dock
with the Chinese Uau flying from the peak of the
main mast, the stars and stripes at the fore, and
the Brittth union jack nit. No demonstration
was made as she left; a slight wavlug of hand
kerchiefs, which might have been the farewell
to individual lrieiid-,as well as a mark of respect
to the representatives of tbe oldest natiou
of tbe world, being the only noticeable
feature. Mr. Burlingame and the principal
ambassadors kept obstinately from the gangway,
but a few ot the attaches who showed themselves
weie made the recipients of parting cheers from
the passengers of the lerry boats and other craft
on the river. The revenue cutter Jasmine
accompanied the Java lo the bay. firing as she
went a salute to the departing Embassy. On
her return she brought back with her a few
friends who had accompanied Mr. Burliugaue
as far as prudence would permit, and on leaving
parting cheers were given from those on board,
and warmly responded to by the patsengers of
tbe Java.

and ordered the document sent back to the
Beuate, where tbe matter Btands.
Tbe Senate, which t eomewhat moderate,
stoutly refuftes to chime in with the measures of
the House. It is possible that a compromise
may be arrived at; but it Is reasonably certain
that tbe House will pais the bill as it is.
Suit has been entered in the Federal Court of
this city against General George II. Thomas and
others for fraudulently coming lu possession of
45,000 acres of land in Middle Tennessee, be
lonqlEg to Archibald Swopc It is alleged that
military intimidation ou the pait of General
Thomas was brought to bear in forcing Swope
to give up his land.
The Democrats have decided ou a vigorous
prosecution of tbe canvass, and success is doubt
ful without the aid of the colored vote. .An
address to the colored people will be issued In a
day or two.
There is ttlll a division of sentiment as to the
propriety of countlngthe black vote. However,
the great majority favor political affiliation with
tbe negroes, a number going so far as to
earnestly contend for colored suffrage from
principle. '
The Nashville Banner and Memphis Avalanche
take substantially this ground, while the leadinif
and influential men of the party earnestly favor
the use of all fair means to defeat the colored
vote.
Reports from all portions of the State indicate
that a considerable percentage of the colored
vote will go Democratic.

BUTLER.
IIlsAddroNSMt tho SlKMMaeuuwett Repub
lican fstate toiiventlou.
At the Kepublican State Convention, in Wor
cester, JUas., yebterday, which nominated Hon.
William Clafliu lor the Goveruorship, General
B. . Butler wit present, aud made a stirring
speech, in which he said:
The Kepublican purty knows no policy in
flhttnee but honesty. This wai its policy tu war,
and this is to be Its policy in peace. Far other
wise is it wilh the Democratic party, lu 1862
they rnaliitame 3 a Uuaucial policy calculated, it
not desiened, to aid the Rebels. In peace tbey
oppose the policy they advocated in war. By
tbe elec ion ot Grant aud Collar, we shall secure
peace for the South, so much desired by Lee and
Beauregard and their associates. But it will be
the peace which comes from submission to the
law, and not the peace wnich the It obi; U
have so long sought. From the commencement
to the end oi the war, they wished ouly to be let
alone while they sundered their relations to tbe
old Union and established a new government. At
the present time there is no war, uo peril in tho
fouth, except what is caused by the Rebels,
themselves. According lo the report ot a com
mittee ot tbe CoLstitutional Convention of
Texas, tbiee hundred persous bavo been mur
dered in Ave moLthi, and the Tennessee Lea U
laiure bave been informed officially that the
murders in that SUte average one a dav. Tais
Is tbe peace which the Rebels niw tiive to the
loyal men of tbe South. Until the Ueb la respect
the law and the lights of tin ir lello-men,
there can be no peace, aud notaiof; can be
more otleusive thau the assertion of Lee and
his associate chiels of the Kebellion, aud authors
of all the evil under wnich the country
labors that the North dcuie to tho Soutu
the blessings ol peace. It thp South will accept
toe work ol lecoustructiou, ii it will receive and
re copnize the neqro as a man aud a citizen, if
the Rebels themseivrs will repaid tbe Slate
governments esiaidished in couiormlty to the
lawe of tbe land a legitimate and permanent'
unu if, above all, they will no longer listen to
tbopromibex aud threats of the Northern De
mocracy, which are altogether delusive aud
vaiu, they will obtain and eujuy the blessings of
u lasting peace. By lurtuer controversv tbey
can Kfcin nothing and may lose ruueo. If they
desire peace let them support General Grant
who is for peace. The patriots of the country
eay, "Let us bave peace:" the Republican party
say?, "Let us have peace:" we ot Massachusetts
ay, "Let us have peace" jet tot that pare
which detpoiinm imoosea upon the oppressed,
but "quiet peace under liberty."

Uljafes S. Grant and Schuyler Colfix.
Kesoivcd. That tbe success of the Republican
party In tais contest means peace and pros
perity to the nation, and that the success of the

lution, aud in view of the bankruptcy and
anarchy wiiich must ensue if the programme of
the Democratic leader is carried out,
we call upon all honest and patriotic
citizens to sustain for President the man whose

peace, and whose name is victory; and in full
