Ihe -one of old. How deep n *pell
I.ic** it. the olj, familiar words
Ouce satis I y those wi* lovrd so well,
In otht-r .i*ys. in happier years;
\ isions of hope long passed away,
Coitie o *-r the heart so long and cold.
And memory as-ts. oh, where are they
Who sweetly ?ting the song* of old ?
M here are they ? Same in silence sleep
Beneath the mournful yew tree's gloom;
Others within the boundless deep
Have early found an ocean tomb ;
Dim are the eyes that gently shone.
The once warm heart lies still and cold.
And hushed for aye, forever gone.
The voice that sung tlie song* of old.
V, here nr.* they? On some foreign strand
Tor ininy a weary day they roam:
t. lieerless they tread the stranger's land,
I* run, friends afar, and far from home.
Do they not long to join onee more
The joyous dance, the social throng.
And mingle, as in days ol yore.
Their voice* in tlie olden song?
Fondly the heart still loves to linger
Amid the ruins of the past,
Tracing, with fancy's fairy linger,
Visions too beautiful to la-i:
Bringing to memory's <ye again
The long lost friend, lite cherished one,
Waking the pa-t with some sad strain.
Some well-remembered uldeu song.
Andrew Johnson's Speech j
At Wilkrd'3 Hotel. April. 1865.
Ji l re/es " the Ilalter for Intelligent-
Tailors,'' and thinks "Death too Easy \
t Eiiuishmtnt."
f
Wc republish below Andrew Jolin
-8 .n's great speech, made at Willard's j
Hotel, in Washington City, on tlie 3d j
of April, six days prior to the surren- i
dor of Lee, and suggest that it be read ;
at the meeting of the Johnson Club j
of this place, that is, if another meet- :
ing is hold. The then Vice President
said :
Wo are now. my friends, winding
up a rebellion—a great effort has been
made by bad men to overthrow the j
Government of the United States—a ■
Government founded upon free prin
ciples and cemented by ihe best blood
ot the Revolution. [Cheers.] You
must indulge me in making one single ,
remark in regard to myself. At the ,
time that the traitors in the Senate of
the United States plotted against the
Government and entered into a eon :
spiraey more foul, more execrable, and
more odious than that of Catalinc
against the Romans. 1 happened to be i
a member of that body, and, as to loy
ally, stood solitary and alone among -
t lie Senators f rom the Southern States.
1 was then and there called upon to
know what I would do with such trait
ors, ami T want to repeat my reply
here. 1 said, if wc had an Andrew
Jackson, he would hang them as high
as Hainan, [cheers,] but as he is no
more, and sleeps in his grave in his
own beloved State, where traitors and
treason have even insulted his tomb,
and the very earth that coveis his re
mains,— humble as I am, when you ask
me what 1 would do, my reply is, 1
would arrest them. I would try them,
1 would convict them, and I would hang
them. [Prolonged cheers]
As humble as I am and have been. I
have pursued but one undeviating
course. Ail that I have—life, limb
and property —have been put at the
disposal of tlie country in this great
struggle. 1 have beert in camp, 1 have
been in the field, I have been every
where where this great rebellion was.
i have pursued it until I believe I can
now Bee its termination. Since the
world began there never has been
a rebellion of such gigantic propor
tionspso infamous in character, so dia
bolical in motive, so entirely disregard
ful of the laws of civilized war. Jt
has introduced the most savage mode
of warfare ever practiced upon the
eai lit.
I will repeat hero a remark, for
which 1 have been in no small degree
censured What is it, allow me to ask
that has sustained the nation in this
great struggle? The cry has been yon
know, that our Government was not
strong enough lor a lime ot rebellion;
that in such a time she would have to
contend against internal foes. We
have now given tho world evidence
that such is not the fact; and when the
rebellion shall have been crushed out,
and the nation shall once ag. in 1 ave
settled down in peace, our Government
•A ill re t upon a more enduring basis
than ever before.
Bj.it, my friends, in what has the
great strength of this Government
consisted? lias it been in the one man
power? Has it been in some autocrat
or in some one man who held absolute
government? No! 1 thank (rod 1
have it in my power to proclaim the
great truth that this Government has
derived its strength from the Ameri
, can people. They have issued tho
edict; fhov have ''xcreisod *ho pn*.rw
£2I££IFiLL ? S!r IPISSTSSa
. that has resulted in the overthrow of
; the rebellion, and there is not another
Government on the face of the earth
. that could have withstood the shock,
i [Cheers.]
1 We can now congratulate ourselves
| that we possess the strorgest, the fro
| est and the best Government tlie world
i ever saw. [Great applause] Thank
God that we have lived through this
trial, and that looking in your intelli
' gent faces here to day, 1 can announce
i to you the great tact that Petersburg,
j the outpost to the strong citadel, has
• been occupied by our brave and gallant
j officers and untiring and invincible sol
diers. [Great cheering.] And not
; content with that they have captured
i tlie citadel itself—the stronghold of
: traitors Richmond is ours, arid is now
j occupied by tl e forces of the l T nited
j States? [Tremendous cheers ] Iler
gates have been entered, and the glo
i rious stars and stripes, the emblem of
: the Union of power, and of suprema
: cy, now float over the enemy's Capitol.
| [Great cheering.]
In the language of another, let that
old flag rise higher and higher,until it
meets the sun in his coming, and let
tlie parting day linger to play upon its
ample folds. [Cheers ] Jt is the flag
of your country, it is your flag, it is
my flag, and it bids defiance to all the j
nations of the earth, and to the en- ;
croachmentsofall the powers combined
[Renewed cheering ]
it is not my intention to make any
imprudent remarks or illusions, but the
hour will come when these nations
that exhibited towards us such inso
onee and improper interference in the
midst of our adversity, and as they j
supposed, of our weakness, will learn
that this is a Government of the peo- i
pie, possessing power enough to make
itself felt and respected. [Cheers.]
In the midst of our rejoicing we
must not forget todropatearforthose
gallant fellows who have shed their i
blood that their Government might
triumph. We cannot forget them
when we view the many bloody fields
of war, the new made graves, our
maimed friends and relatives who have
left their limbs, as it were, on tlie ,
enemy's soil, and others who have
been consigned to their long, narrow
houses, with no winding sheet save
their blankets saturated with their'
blood.
One word more and I have done. —
It is this: I am in favor of leniency. :
But in my opionion, evil doers should
he punished. [Cries ol "That's so.' ] i
Treason is the highest crime known
in tlie catalogue of crimes, and for him i
that is guilty of it —for him that is :
willing to lilt his impious hand against 1
tlie authority of the nation —1 would j
say death is too easy a punishment.—
[Loud cheers ] -My notion is thai
treason must be made odious, that t rait- j
ois must be pimishedand impoverished,
their social powers broken they must '
be made to feel the penalty of their :
crime. You my friends have traitors 1
iu your very midst, and treason needs j
rebuke and punishment here as well as
elsewhere.
It is not tlie men in the field who
are the greatest traitors. It is the men j
who have encouraged them to imperil i
their lives, while they themselves have i
remained at home expending their
means ard exerting all their power to •
OVCITIDW tho Government. Ilencc 1 !
say this: "The halter to intelligent, j
influential traitors." [ Loud cheers.]
But to the honest boy, to the deluded
man, who lias been deluded into the
rebel ranks, 1 would say, return to your

Importance of Gravel Stones for Fowl?.
Did you ever dissect the gizzard of
a hen, turkey, goose or duuk? The
gizzard and gravel stones in it, serve
the purpose of teeth, in reducing the
food to email particles, or, in other
words, to facilitate digestion. The
| food is swallowed in chunks, or the
| grain is received into the crop unbro-
I ken. Hero all substances arc softened
! and passed, a little aba time, through
' the gizzard, which is surrounded by
| strong muscles; and when food is pass
: ing through it, it dilates and contracts
similar to the motion of a bellows, and
the tood, kernels of grain, coming in
contact with the gravel stones is sep
| a rated and torn to pieces. Alter this
process is completed the food is diges
ted. These little mill stones, as it
were, uo not remain long in the giz
zard; they are carried out with the
food, and a new set is thus brought
; along to be ground. Now if the fowls
are confined, as they often arc, while
they cannot have access to all the
sharp gravel they need, their digestion
j must be imperfect, and they cannot do
well, especially if fed on whole grain.
; Fowls need sharp gravel within their
; reach, to swallow every day; and if
they do not have a range, gravel
: should be kept by them, in their euclo

Improving Garden .Soils,
'll.O first step should be to under
draw. the garden thoroughly. That
means tile laid two and a'ha'l feet
deep, and the drains tight or ton feet
apart. Make the drain shallow, so as
to dry the surface of the ground quick
ly. and so that the air passing up the
drains may reach and benefit the plants
readily. Put them close together so
that every foot of ground may come
within their influence, and so that as
cending water in the spring, may be
arrested ere it reaches the surface.
If the soil contains too much clay,
is heavy and difficult to pulverize, draw
on sand ami mix with it. If on the
contrary it is too light, apply clay—
, you can generally find it in the subsoil,
and such trenching is the very best
tiling to be done. You want plenty of
I vegetable mould in the garden, and
! this can be supplied readily by cutting
sods from the road side or fence cor
ners, uid piling them up until thor
oughly decayed. A fine compost may
bo made with sods, barn.yard manure,
plaster, &t\, and it forms the best fer
tilizer. all things considered, that can
I be applied to a garden.. Manure should
decay sufficiently to destroy the vital
! ity of seeds of weeds which may be in
; it, and this can be accomplished eco
nomically in a hot bed. —Rural X.
