There Li a little mystic, clock, No hiiman eye bath seen, That beateth on, and beateth on, From morning until o'en. And when the soul is wrapped In sleep, And hcareth not 'a sound, -- It ticks, and ticks, the living night, And never runneth down. Oh,. wondrous is 'that work of art Which knells the passing hour ; But art ne'er found, nor mind conceived, The lite-clock's magic power. NOt set in gold, 'nor decked with gems, By wealth or pride posvased ; But rich or poor, or high or tow, Ettieh heors it in his breast. Vt . ben life's -deep stream, 'mill beds of flowers. An still and Softly 'glides, Like wavelet's step, with a gentle beat, It warns of passing tides'.

The knell is deep end strong When eyes to eyes are gazing soft, And tender words are spoken, 'nearest end wild .it 'As if with love 'twere broken. Such is the clock that measures life, Of flesh and spirit blended— And thus 'twill run within the breaeit, 'Till this strange life is ended. ~_} ~ d ~ ~~ REVEL'S SPEECH Mr. Revels; oolored Senatoi, spoke as fo lows: Mr. President, I rise at this particular juncture in the discussion of the Georgia bill with feelings which perhaps never before en tered into the experience of any.member of this body. too, with misgiving s as to the propriety of lifting my voice at this ear ly period after my admission into the Senate Perhaps itvwcie Wiser for me, so inexper ienced in the details of Senatorial duties,. to remain a passive listener to the progress of this debate. But when I remember that my term is short, and that the issues with which this bill is fraught are momentous in their present and futUrtinflaence upon the well beinc.e of my race, I would seem indifferent to the importance of the hour • end recreant to the high trust imposed upon me, if I hes itated to lend my voice on behalf of the loy• al people of the South. I therefore waive all thought as to the propriety of entering into this discussion Breaking through a generally understood etiquette of this body, when questions arise which bear upon the safety and protection of the loyal white and colored population of those States lately in rebellion I cannot allow any thought as to mere propriety to enter into my consideration of duty. The respon sibilities of being the exponent of such a con stituency as I have the honor to represent are fully appreciated by an. I bear about me daily the keenest sense of their weight, and that feeling prompts me now to lift my voice for the first time in this council cham ber of the nation; and, sir, I stand to-day on this floor to appeal for protootion from 'the strong arm of the Government for her Loyal children, irrespective of color and race, who are Citizens of the Sou there States, and par tioulatly of the great State,of Georgia. I em well aware, sir, that the idea is abroad that an antagonism exists 'between the whites+ and blacks; that race which the natioa raised from the degradation of slavery and endowed with the Tull and unqualified nests and privileges of Citizenship are intent upon power at whatever rrico it „can be gain ed. It has been the well considered purpose and aim of a class not confined to the South to spread.; this charge over the land, and their efforts are as vigorous te.day to educate 'the people of this nation into that belief as they were at the close of the war. It was not uncommon to find this same class, even dur ing the rebellion, prognosticating a servile war. ft may have been that 'the wieb was fath er to the thought.' And, air, es the retatig 'nized representative of . day down trodden people, I deny the charge, and' hart it back into the teeth of those who makti, it, And who, Übelieve ' have not's true and conscien• thins desire to farther the : iatereste of the ,whola<South. Certainly no one possessing any personal knowledge of the colored pop ulation oftay own or other States need be reminded of , the sable conduct of that people under - the mole trying circumstances in the history of the late war: When they were beyond the 'preteetion of the Fedora!' forces', . arbile..the "Confederate army pressed inio its rants every white male , capable of bearing arine. - the mothers,vives, daughters, and sisters of the Southern.. sof-, diers were left defenseless and is the power of the Macke, upon whotn i the chaiattif sla very were still riveted. mod to, bind those chains the cloher was the yeal issue fur which so much life and property wore 4 sacrificed ; and now, air , I tvic bow of that race set ? Did 'they in those days of Lnofede:ate weak-. ten cod impotobee eviode the inoiighoacy of which wet ear eit much P ' Granting for ttie sakg bf argument :that they were igaorant•enii, besotted=-*which I do not believe yet with all their supposed ignorance and credulity, they in their way understood as Sully as you or I. • the awful import of the contest. They kneW that if• the gallant • 'corps of soldiers were butt IT id Jack - and their flag trailed in the dust, that it was the presage of still heavier bondage. They longed, too, as . their - fathers before them, for the , advent of that epoch, over which was abed the,,hallovred light,of inspir• ation itself. They desired; too, with their fathers, to welcome the feet of the stranger shod-with - the peaceful - preparation of good news. Weary'yeara of bondage bad told' their tale of sorrow to- the.court of Heaven. In the councils of the Great Father of all , they knew the adjudication of their ease, l albeit delayed for years, in which patient suffering had nearly exhausted itself, would in the end bring to them the boon for which they sighed—God's most blessed gift to His creatures, the inestimable been of liberty.-.- Tbey waited, and they waited patiently. In the absence of their masters they protected the virtue and chastity of defenceless wo men. Think, sir, for a moment, what the condition of the land would be to•day if the slave population had risen in servile insur rection against those' who month by month were_fighting_to_perpetuate-that—institution which brought to them all the evils of which they complained. Where would have been the security for property, female chastity, and childhood's innocence ! Th e bloody counterpart of such a story. of cruelty and wrong won I save sees, paralleled only in those chapters of Jewish Hater • as recorded that reign of terror which sent the unfortu nate Louis the Sixteenth and Marie Antoin ette to the scaffold. Nay, the deeds in that drama 0f . 401d-blooded butchery would, ha,e out lieroded the most diabolical nets of Her od himself. • * * * ',Tafuttounil, I remarked, l'4r. President, that I arose to plead for protection for the defenceless race who now send their delegation to the seat of Government to sue for that which this Congress alone can secure to them, and here let me sag further that the people of the North owe to the colored race a deep ob• ligation which is no easy matter to fulfill When the Federal armies were thinned by death and dieuter and sombre clouds over hung the length and breadth of the Repub. lie and the very air was pregnant with the rumors of foreign interference, in those dark days of defeat, whose memories even yet haunt us as in ugly dream ; from what source did our nation in its seeming death throes gain addition and•new-fonnd power? It wee the. sable sons of the South that valiantly rushed to the rescue, and, but for their in trepidity and ardent daring_, many a Worth ern•fireside would Inlet tr-Wd• iy paternal coun sels or a brother's love. • Sir, I repeat the fact, that the colored race saved to the noble women of New Hugh. nd and the Middle States men on whom they lean to-day for security and safety. Many of my race, the representatives of' these meh on the field of battle, sleep in tfie eouutless graves of the South. If those quiet resting places of our honored dead should speak to day, what a mighty voice, like to the rush ing mighty wind, would come up from those sepulchral homes. Could we resist the elo quent pleadings of their appeal ? Ah, sir, I think that this question of immediate and ample protection for the loyal people of Georgia would lose its technicalities and we would cease to hesitate in our provisions for their instant relief. Again, [ regret this de. lay on other grounds. The taunt is frequent ly flung at us that a Nemesis more terrible than the Greek personation of the anger of the gods awaits her hours of direful retribu ,ticti. We are told that at uo distant day a great uprising of the American people will demand that there reconstruction nets of Congress be undone and blotted foyever from the annals of legislatite evaetment. I inquire, sir, if this delay in affording protection to the loyalists of the State of Georgia does not lend an uncomfortable sig nificancy to this boasting sneer with which we are so often met . ?

The real worker is never. is a hurry, and the'real idler, we may ad add; • is never .anything else. Wh o ever heard of Lord Palmerston, or the Duke of - Welling. ton, or Lord Broughhato, being in a hurry ? When we see a man in a great hurry, we may be pretty certain that his profession con sists in doing nothing, and that be is doing that badly. The idlest man we ever know was always so much pressed for time that he never had five minutes to spike for anything. No one need to be in such a terrible hurry as this. If we ever. find ourselves .so,_ it is probably because we have been westing our time. We have no system, and have, there fore, done in an hour what ought to have been finished in twenty minutes; or:like the hare, we have loitered on the way, and then we make a rush for it, and arrive just in time to miss the train. How many bares there are every morning who arrive breath. lea in the city, because breakfast was half an hour late, or because they would not get ,uri when they clock Struck seven ! But our readers hate a right to ask what constitutes, as a general rule, waste of time. We answer in a single sentence—Whatever hinders or prevents you doing your work in life. Everyone should realize that his du ty here consists in applying himself to some worthy work, and his time may then safely and without waiite be divided into three periods—preparing for work, doing work, and resting from work. Waste of time, then, becomes a thing , purely relative . What is mere waste in one case is real profit in anoth er The idle man wbp travels simply for pleasure, is simply wasting. his time, the man who travels, for sifety, or the man who travels to get rest trout work, or for the Bake of his health, is not wasting or abusing his time, be is turning it to good account.
