The Youug Poelo of Ireland.
If Clabekoe Manoan bo takonas a.leading
Pool of « Y r oung Irolund," scarcely any one
will deny that Callaxan deserves to take
rank among the young poets of Ireland, pre
ceding tho lyrists who were fostered by tho
Dublin University Magazinc,t\\o Nation news
paper, {n tho stirring ten years, between 18-10
and 1850, which did so much to foster tho
genius of Irish Imaginative and poetical wri
ters, IVo specially name iho Dublin Univer
sity Magazine as contributing to this, because
that periodical, notwithstanding its strong Tory
proclivitics, has over been open to the contri
butions of able Irish writers, no matter what
their political or religions faith or profession.
James Joseph Cali an an, albeit a poet of ex
quisite sensibilities and great power, is little
kdown, beyond the circle of Irish literati . He
flourished—no, he did not flourish: ho vege
tated during tho struggle in his nativo land for
Catholic Independence, and died in 1829, the
y<ear it was obtained. A writer in tho JmA
Quarterly Review says « Thcro is not a single
(trace which belongs to a poet, nor a single at
tributo which should adorn him, that Calla
han might not claim.” He was deeply
versed in fho literary loro of hi& nativo land,
find earnestly impressed with a feeling of in
dignation for her sufferings and her wrongs.
He hod one superiority over Mangan—-ho was
an excellent Irish scholar, and transfused
rather than translated from tho Irish into tho
English language. His briefest poems are his
best. But before wo are critical on his com
positions let us trace his career. In Hayes's
“Ballads of Ireland,” several of
poems aro printed, with the following brief
memoir, tho facts of which are takon from a
biography prefixed to tho edition ofliis poems
published by Bolster, of Cork, goon after his
doath, Mr. Hates writes thus:
“ Jeremiah Joseph Callanan was born in Cork In
X 795. Ho was cducatod for tho priesthood, but the
delicate state of hit health, and the roffiess spirit
whioh aftorwards booame tho bane of bis oxistonoo,
and which frequently led him to abandon real good
for some vain and shadowy prospect, impelled him,
after a residence of two year#, to quit M/iyoooih,
nnd to relinquish all 'his future prospects in tho
clerical profession. In 1820 he entered Trinity Col
lege ne uq out-penaiouor, with tho intention of stu
dying for tho bar; but, liko his provious choioo, ho
renuunced tbis also after a two-year* (rial. In
1923 ho became an assistant in tho school of Dr.
Maginn, in Cork, whero he remained only a few
months; but through Mugiun'a introduction he be
came a contributor to Diac.t wood's Magazine,
“During theso six years, and up to 1829, ho
spent hl9 Lme in rambling through tho country,
collecting tho old Irish ballads and logends, and in
giving them ft now drew in a new tongue. Barlv
iu 1829 he heoamo a tutor in the family of an Irish
gentleman in Lisbon, and on the 19th of September
of tho same year he died, thore, in tho JUh year of
his ace.
41 ilia ‘ Beolnse of Inchldony, ? in tho Spenserian
metro, ishis loogost poem; but his verses on 4 Gou
f;aque Burra' have attained tho widest popularity
a tho south of Ireland.'’
Hegaincd two prizopoemsat Trinity College,
Dublin: Ono on the Acccssiou of Georoe the
Fourth, (which is connoon-place nnd eulogis.
tic to a degree); the other on tho Restoration
of the Spoils of Athons, which has the doubt
ful merit of brevity. His principal poem, in
tho Spensorian stanza, is «Tho Recluse of
Inchldony,” which, after the fashion of the,
time in which ho wrote, is steeped inGbildo
Harold misanthropy. His first great burst Into
poetry was in hls translations from tbo Irish,
nine of which appeared in Blackwood's Maga -
Wrie, in 1823. His sacred poems and bis In
imitable lyrics were among the productions of
hls matured mind.
Sameix Loves, liimself a great song-writer,
lias lately edited a volume of “ Irish Songs,”
,1a which ho gives some specimens, hot not the
best, oi - CAttANAs’s poetry. Speaking of him,
Loves says “ ono may suppose lie was of that
dreamy nature which so often untlts the pos
sessor for tho activo pursuits of lifo, for Cae
lasxk seems never to liavo settled down to
any. Ho fs described, too, as of a procrasti
nating disposition, acting on the systorn of that
noblo lord who would «never do anything to
day he could possibly put off till to-morrow.’
Ho was a groat favorite iu society, and this
helped to idlo him also, tho call ol' social plea
sure having for him a siren voice. Only one
thing could draw him from that fascination,
and that was his deeper love for tho beauties
of Nature •, and it is quite touching to find in
liis memoirs how he was wont to rushback>
timo after time, to tho mountain region of
South Munster, and wander alone through its
wild scenery, on which his poetic fancy feast
ed, and which he lias so beautifully described
iu bis ode to < Gougaune Barra.’ ”
The poem of Gougaune Barra is that by
which Caelanas is best known, and wo shall
givo it hero. Ho lias himself described tlio lo
cality which ho celebrates. He says :
“ Tbo Lako of Gougauno Barra— l\ r., the hollow
or recess of Saint Flnu Barr, in tho rugged terri
tory of Ibh-Laoghalre, (tho O’Loarya* country,) in
tho west of the county of Cork—is tbo parent of
tho river Leo. It is rather of on irregular oblong
form, runniug from N. K. to S. 4V., and may cover
about twouty acres of ground. Its wators embrace
a small but verdant island, of about half an aero in
oxtont, which approaches its onstorn shore. The
lake, as its name implies, is situate In a deop hol
low, surrounded on every side (save tho east, whore
its superabundant waters are discharged) by vast
and almost perpendicular mountain?, whoso dark
inverted shadows aro gloomily reflected in its
w&tore bonoath. Tho names of thoso mountains
aro l)ereen t (the little o«k wood,) wbero cot a tree
now remains; Maolagh , which signifies a country
—a region—a map—perhaps so called from tho
wide prospect which it ulTards; Nad an' uillar,
the Eflglo's Nost; and Fauilte na Gougaunr, *. r.,
tho dills of Gougauno, with its steep ami frowning
precipices, tho home of an hundred echoes.”
Jloro is tho poem, full of melody, beauty,
and a pathos so deep as to bo nearly passion
ate :
GOUGAUNE BAItRA.
There is a groon island in lone Goujaune Harrs,
Where Allua of sonrs rushes forth as an arrow *,
Indcep-valticd Detmond—a thousand wild fountains
Come down to that lake, from their home in tho moun-
tains.
There grows the wild ash, and a tnue-strioken willow
Looks chiding)? down on the mirth of tho billow;
As. like some gay child, that sad monitor scorning,
It lightly laughs hack tothe laugh of the morning.
And its zone of dark bllls-oH! to sec them all bright
’ring,
When tho tempest flings out its red banner nt lightning*
And tlio waters rush down ’mid tho thunder’s deep rat
tle,
Liko clans from tho Infs at tho voice of the battle ;
And brightly the fire-crcstt d billnuaare gleaming,
And wildly from Mullagh the oodles are soieaintng,
Oh! where is the dwelling, tn valley or highland,
So meet for a bard, as this lono littio island i
How oft, when the summer sun rested on Clara,
And lit the dark heath on tho hills of Item,
Have 1 sought thee, sweet spot, Irom my homo by the
ocoiin,
And trod all thy wilds with a Minstrel's devotion!
Atul thought of thy bards, when assembling together.
In the cleft ol thy rocks, or the dei.th of thy heather;
They.fled from tho Saxon’s dark tomlruio and slaughter,
And waked their last song by tho rush of thy water.
Kith sons of tho lyre, oh ! how* proud inn the feeling,
To think while ulona through that sohtudostealing,
Though loftier Minstrels green Erin can number,
1 only awoko your wild baTp from its slumber,
Ami mingled once more with the voice of thoso foun-
tains
The sons* even coho forgot on her mountains;
And glean’d each grey legend, that darkly was sleeping
Whore tho mist wild the rain o'er tlitir beuuty w*ero
oieepiog
Least bard of the hills! wero it mine to inherit
The hre of thy harp, and the wing of tliy spirit,
With tho wrongs which, like thoe, to our country has
bound me,
Did your mantle ofsonc fling its radiance around me,
bull, still in those wilds might your liberty rally,
And send her strong shout over mountain and valley,
The star of the West might yet rise in its glory,
And tho land that was darkest be brightest in story.
I too shall be gono; but my n» mo shall be spoken
When Erin awakes, and her foite/a aro broken
Soma Minstrel will come, in the summer eve’s gleam-
ing,
When freedom's young light on his spirit is beaming,
And bend o'er my grave with a tear of emotion,
Whore calm Avon-Buee seeks (lie kisses of ocean.
Or plant a wild Wreath, from the banks of that river,
O'er the heart and the harp that are sleeping forever.
Wo make Bold to say that for lyrical sweet
ness and expression there is no superior tothia
exquisite lyric in tho writings of any Irish poet
of any era. It positively makes in tho mind
a music of its own, ns you read it, and dwells
lingeringly in the memory—liko tho faint echo
of delicious music heard in dreams.
Our next extract is ui a different character.
It is a legendary ballad founded upon an old
tradition in tho South of Ireland, « notice of
which tho author thus prefixed to his poem :
“ From (ho foot of Inohidony Island, an elevated
tract of sand runs out Into tho sea, and terminates in
tv high green bank, which forms a nlessiugoontrast
with the little desert behind it, and the block soli
buy rook immediately under. Tradition tells that
the Virgin came one night to thUhillook:to pray,
and wa# disooverod kneeling there by the crow of
a vessel that wax coming to aoohor near the place.
Thoy laughod at her piety, and made some merry
and unbecoming remark* on her beauty, upon which
a storm arose and destroyed the ship and her crew.
Sinco that time no vessel has been known to anchor
nanr tho spot.”.
THE VIRGIN MARY’S BANK.
The evening *tar rose benuteoo* above the lading day,
As to the lone and silent beach the Virgin came to pray,
And hill and wave shone in the moonlight's
mellow fall;
B ut the hank of green where Mary knell was brightest
of them all.
Slow moving o’er the waters, a gallant bark appear’d,
And her joyou* crew look’d from the deok aa to tho land
she near’d;
To the calm and •helter’d haven ahe floated like ft
swan,
And her wing# of snow o’er the wave# below in pride
and beauty shone.
The matter «*w our Lady a# he stood upon the prow,
And mark'd the whitenew of her robo-the radiance of
her brow;
Her arm# were folded gracefully upon her itainle##
breast,
And her eye* look’d up among the star* to Him her soul
lov’d boat.
He «how’d lior to his sailors, and he hail’d her with a
oheer,
And on the kneeling Virgin they gazed with laugh and
jeer;
And madly swore, a form so fair they nsvor saw before \
And they ours’d the faint and lagging breeze that kept
them from the shore.
The ocean irom its bosom shook off the moonlight
sheen,
And up its WTftthiul billow# rose to vindicate their
Queen; ,
And a cloud came o’er the heavens, and a darkness o'er
tie land, -
And tho scoffing crow behold no more that Ladr on the
strand.
out^ r *tthe pealing thunder, and the lightning leap’d
And xuahmg with his watery war, the tempe#t gave a
shout;
And that vessel from a mountain wave earns down with
thundYmg shook;
And her timbers flew like scatter’d spray on Jochidonj’s
rock.
Then loud from *ll that guilty crew one shriek rose wild
and high;
Bu t tho an.rjr >ur.a .wept over them, and hneh’d their
etirgling err i
And with a hoarse exulting tone the tempest pae.’d
away,
And down, still chafing from their strife, th* indignant
waters lay.
W hen the calm and purple morning shone out on high
Puomore,
Full many a mangled corpse was seen on Inchidony’s
shore;
And to this day the fisherman shows where the scoffers
sank;
And still he calls that hillock green, ** tha Virgin Mary’s
bank.”
Theso extract# will show that wo have not
e xaggerated tho merits of Callaway, tho Irish
poet, who has slept, since 1829, in a far-dis
tant land, far from his own green Island, which
ho loved so we)J. Two poems, however, out
of what he wrote, are scarcely sufficient to ex
hibit his gfent and varied powers. To do
Callahan justice, wo must return to him at
an early opportunity, and give some of his
translations from the Irish.

POLITICAL AND PERSONAL,

SoVßiiEiosir.—A psmphlot of forty-oight page#,
written by lion. Beverdy Johnson, who was for
merly Attorney General of tho United States, and
one of the ablest lawyers of the country, Is now in
press, and will shortly be published under the fol
lowing title:
“Rtinarls on Popular Sovereignty as Main
tainnl and Denied, by Judge
Douglas and Attorney Qintral Black. By a
Southern Citizen.”
Mr. Johnson will be remembered as having been
the chief counsel on the Southern side of the fa
mous Dred-Soott ease, which involved the question
of slavery in the Territories.
The New York Timer, of Tuesday, famishes a
short extract of this pamphlet, and we hope to be
able to take copions extracts from it at an early
day. He fully endorses the positions which Judge
Douglas has taken in hie with Judge
Blaok.
Ho establishes tbo following propositions;
FiVrf—That Congress has no power to prohibit
alavory In tho unorganized Territories. Jils posi
tion is established by the Dred Scott caso.
Ncttmd—That Congress lias no power to prohiDit
slavery In tho Territories after they have been or
ganized under Territorial Governments.
Third— That Congress has no power to establish
slavery In a Territory. Slavery's tho creature of
posltire law, which may exist either by statute or
custom.
Fourth— That if Congress can neither prohibit
nor establish slavery in a Territory, it cannotlegis
late to protect or regulate it. He reproves the doo
trino or Mr. Buchanan, “ Slavery oxiats by virtue
of the Constitution," and shows that the Bred
Scott case sanoliona no such doctrine; that “ it l?
altogether an Executive Impression and blunder,
not less original than erroneous;” that, according
to the doctrine of the Supreme Court in the Dim
Scott case. “it clearly follows that to legislate to
protect the institution, is as much beyond the Con
gressional authority as to legislate to prohibit or
establish it, and consequently all of them are among
the powers * reserved to the States respectively, or
to the people.’ ”
I'V/M—The fifth proposition isstatod In these
words: ‘‘The remaining and lastqucsiion I propose
to examino, is: Can the Territorial Government
admit, protoot, or exolndo slavery, at any time da
ring its existence ?” Tho distinguished writer main
tains the aflirmattvo of this proposition with great
ability. He says:
“ It would soern to be an anomaly In oar institu
tions if these powers do not exist. That slavery,
an artlfloial iustoad of a natural condition, should
bo beyond the reach of human power, under any
form of government; And should bo admitted, pro
tooted or extended, in violation of the wishes of tbo
pooplo with whom it is or is to bo, and in disregard
of tho wishes of all branches of the Government,
and of all general or local power, is a doctrine So
extraordinary that it almost defies human judg
ment. No proof short of demonstration can bo
given to bring such judgment to a satisfactory con
clusion in Us support; and wbon we reflect on tbo
length of time during which this state of things is
, to prevail, the doctrine becomes yet more start
ling.” ;
lie then reviews the Bred Scott decision, and
shows clearly that ail the positions and principles
affirmed by It arc in harmony with tho doctrine of
Popular Sovereignty jn tbo Territories, u explain
ed by Judge Douglas in Harper's Magazine, and
concludes as follows:
“ As has been seen, this doctrino is not only net
inconsistent with the opinion of tho Supremo Court,
but jnatntatned by its principtts.'*
Ho next proceeds “ to show that it baa the clear
est Congressional, aud Democratic, and Executive
sanction.”
Hero ho reriows tbo Compromise Measures of
ltt&O, and the Kangas-Nebmka legislation of 1831,
to prove that they were intended and understood
at tho lime to establish the doctrineof popular so
vereignty in tho Territories, and adcU:
“Docs it maintain Judgo Douglas’s doctrine ?
Unless Uuguage has lost its use, uud serves only to
mislead and delude, no other meaning can be given ,
to it.” . 1
After reviewing all tbo Authorities on this point,
ho arrives at tho following conclusion: !
“Whatever, therofore, under this act, the people
of a State oan do, tbo people of a Territory can
do; tbo sole limitation upo:. the authority of either
is declared to be in tho Constitution of tho United
States.”
Ho next proceeds to instance the absurdity of
Judgo Block’s “axiomatic principloof publiclaw”
for ine protection of slavo property in the Territo
ries, under tho laws of tho State from which they
were removed, as follows:
“ But if tboro can bo no legislation by the Terri
tory, what law is to rcguluto the rights and to tar
nish tho remedies? Are tbeso to oe as various as
tho laws of tho several States from which tho pro
perty was taken ? Are tho rights to sell and dispose
of such, or any other, property to depend on sttcb
laws? Thou, an Immigrant from one Slate might
sell each slavo singly, while one from another could
not sell at all if the sale separated man and wife,
f mrent and child. In one case, slaves would be
iable to execution for debt in the lifetime of the
owner, or to sale at his death for payment of his
debts or distribution, and in tho other not. In
one, the children of a slave mother might belong
to her owner, In the other r.ot. In one, they might
be froo, iu tho other not. Iu one, trover might, be
the remedy, in the other not. In one, resistance
by the slavo to the owner might be punished with
death, in the other not. In the one, the mode of
feeding, clothing, and working might be prescribed,
in tho othor not. In tho one, lAbor might bo pre
sumptive evidence of slavery, in the other not. In
the one, slaves might bo considered as real estate,
and so to be disposed of, during life or at death, in
tho othor not. And what is tmo as to this species
of property lat Tue of all.”
Ho illustrates this position by furthor reference
to the taws of diflbrout States and countries upon
tho subject- of “Farming nnd its implements, its
caret and Us hire,” winch are property in some
places: by reforeneo to iiolygnmy, where H is
authorized by law, and to lottories, which nre
still lawful in sorno States, and also by reference to
ones which have rcoontly been hold by tho courts
to bo property in Kew York, but not in South Ca
rolina. .
Ilie distinguished jurist uoxt proceeds to show
that Judge Block is mistaken in supposing that
private proparty could bo lawfully seized and ta
ken witfiout compensation, where there is no con
stitutional provision upon the subject—that “ the
title to property is found in the nature of society
and civil government”—that it existed before
Magna ChartA or Constitutions—and cites the
opinion of Chief Justice Marshall in tho case of
TWO CENTS.

One y tho results of the jßrown foray at the
South may be observed in the inoreasod restrictions
upon froe cdlored people. A bill has been intro
duced in the Tennessee Legislature to prevent free
negroes travelling on the railroads in that State,'
which passed at the first reading. The bill pro
vides that the president who shall permits free
negro to travel on any road within the jurisdiction
of the State under hi* supervision shall pay a fine
of $500; any conductor permitting a violation of
the act shall pay a fine of $250; provided, such free
negro is not under the control and earn of a free
white citizen of Tennessee who vouches for the
characterof said negro in the penal bond of $l,OOO.
A writer in the Charleston Courier praises
Governor Wise as “ one of tho hardest working
men of the age,” and says:
“ One of his schemes is a novel one. When ne
groes are convicted of crimes, instead of sending
them away, and making, aa he remarked to me, a
Botany Bay of South Carolina and Louisiana, he
buys them for the State, and puts them to work on
railroads and other public works. He says the
system worked well, and the negroes worked well
in tho railroad tunnels. The Governor Is not in
sensible, too, of the ornate aa welt as the useful,
and devotes himself te improving the, Capitol
grounds, already very beautiful, employing the
white peniteatlaiy convicts, with a Sefdier In fall
uniform, with amo&ket; standing guard over them,
and ready to pop away at them if they attempt to
escape.”
Tbo triumphant election of Pryor over his Demo
cratic competitor, in Virginia, ought to satisfy these

nominated at Charleston. His competitor waa one

Ocean Steaming 100 Miles an Horn.—A letter
ii published in the Buffalo papers, signed by ex-
President Millard Fillmore, Hon. S. G. Havens,
aud a number of influential citizens, addressed to
Rollin Germain, requesting him to make a public
explanation of his principle of construction for
steam navigation. Ho proposes to establish, amongst
others, the following propositions: That steamers
may be constructed to ran one hundred miles an
' hour, and so strong that tho greatest oceanic forces
would not endanger their safety; that the economy
of their movements will be such as to reduce the
cost of transportation to lea than one-fifth of the
present rates; that when loaded with a large
freight, a full passenger list, and fuel enough for a
voyage around the world, it would not draw over'
twenty-two feet; and that as a war-ship one would
be an overmatch to all existing navies. Hr. Ger
main has made the subject his study for thirteen
yoare, and sow makes it pubiio for the first time.
Eminent engineers of the United States pronounce
the jflan practicable, and destined to work a com
plete revolution ia steam navigation.

Mvktlaxd Politics.—^The Baltimore American
is puzzled to know what political courso to pursue
in future. After avowing its hostility to tbo De
mocratic party it says ;
“ About the Opposition there is much more to be
said It will unqueslionablybecompoeedofmany
discordant elements, if It amounts to anything, and
it might not be altogether agreeable to do Buttle
under its banners, even Against a common enemy.
Although the saooess of any one of the opposing
factions is out of theauestion, the strength or those
factions unitod woulq certainly insure a Democra
tic defeat. Supposing this result to be one worth
fighting for, and admitting it to be within the
compass of probability, wenavestilj a shuddering
memory of the story about the man who swapped a
troublesome dog for two pups of a worse breed.”
Tua November Elections.—The November
elections begin in Maryland to-day. Members of
Congress and a Legislature are to be chosen. The
Congressional delegation now stands threo Demo
crats and three South Americans. The Legisla
ture to be chosen this full will elect a successor to
United States Senator Pearce, whose term expires
ia 1861.
On the 7th Louisiana completes the list of elec
(ions to the next Congress. She ohoae, at tho last
election, one American and three Democrats ; but
as tho American, Mr. Eustis, has joined the Demo
cracy, It is most probable that bis successor will also
be a Democrat. On the Bth of November, elec
tions will take place in Massachusetts, New York,
New Jorßoy, Illinois, and Wisconsin. In Massachu
setts aßtato ticket and Legislature are to he chosen.
Only local officers are to be chosen in Illinois. In

pondent of the Boston Post says:
« A curious scrap of secret literary history Is the
fact that, at thoexpiratiou of Irving’s contract with
Lea & Blanohard, in 1844, there occurred a hiatus
of five years, iuto which no other publL-her ven
tured to leap. During this time the genial author
of 4 Sunnysido’ (then in Spain) imagined himself
obsoleto and forgotten, his works almost en

Cookto make s full confession of all he knew con

to exonerate those who were innocent, and to pu

nothing to hope for butdeath. Gov. Willard state*,

he had a new machine constructed of bnuZ

amine all its pans. This was bftegbt to ear effioe
nearly two year* ago, when w« noticed it ca«*
more, and gare to our readers aome of thefabti we
have now recalled. The inventor was trying 6
secure a patent Pa this discovery, bat
went on siowiy. The Patent Olfiea iwtuirvd a
working model to test the principle, and one was
sent on to Washington. Tee moment the, blocks
were taken out. the wheels started off “ like a
thing of life,” and during ten mouths that-the
model remained in the Patent Office, it never crura
stopped to breathe. The inrezAor hod perfected
two now machines, and made a very comfortable
livelihood exhibiting them, prosecuting his effort*
meanwhile to secure his patent, intending to
apply the power to clockwork, for which it
Is peculiarly well adapted. Ago crept upon

that he hj*d provided s secret plane beneath the

covered by a trapdoor, which was tacked, and the
floor so replaced as to avoid suspicion. After his
last illness commtnarwd, -he made known this
secret te hie family, who examined the spot care
fully, and found the content* exactly- as 'de
scribed. The night after his death, the shop
was broken opew, the floor taken up, the trap-door
pried off, and both models stolen. It it probable
that the family in their visits had not the
same precaution as the Inventor, and some prying
eyes had discovered the secret. Fortunately, the
drawings are preserved, and there is a little ma
chine, one of the earliest zn&de. now running in
Brookljn, where it has kept np its ceaseless tjekmg
for nearly six years. Mr. Hendrickson leaves a
family of four sons and four daughters, all of them,
we believe, given to inventions. Had he died ten
