Old Caleb Graymarsh jwelt in the New Eng land village of M , bard by his own stone walled, black-chimneyed factory, which belched forth fire and smoke all day, and shone like some ogre’s palace half .the night with the fires and lights which glimmered, through the win dq.WB,nnd shed a crimson gleam over the waste a£d barren land about the building. Tor it was aj stirring place, this factory, and the work people-were there among the whirring machi nery night and day—strong, stalwart fellows, With begrimmed hands and faces—old men, who could just totter op the stairs—women, tidy and trim, and soma of them very pretty, and the little children, who, had they been born of wealthy parents, would only have been per mitted to leave the nursery under the guardi anship of a maid. There was occupation for all fit at the. great factory, and, in the eyes of bis employees, Caleb Graymarsh was a maqtof mighty wealth and power. Fabulous tales were told of bis possessions in real estate, and the women folks had a legend among them that the tea service, which some of them had seen glittering on the factory table, was made of solid,dollars, melted down forjthe express purpose, and that through out the bouse the furniture was. covered, with real silk velvet. It was-a pity, they said, that poor Mrs. Graymarsh could not have, lived to sea all this, but had died when. Caleb was a young man, struggling with the fortune which was nos bis. A few years before there had been a simple white slab,in. the grave-yard, bearing the words, “ Kittv Grathaksh, sged 20.” But of late, a splendid marble monument had arisen there, with a flowery inscription on its face, and the figure of An angel bending over it,-. A showy thing, with.’ nothing artistic about-it; yet though the dead girl, who would have been an elderly woman by this time had sho lived, slept no more peacefully under the costly structure than she had beneath the sim ple slab, there was something in the sight when one thought that by;itB erection-the old man had striven to make his lost .Wife, participate in the only possible way in. the wealth which bo so valued. -A ■ It is hard to thick of most old business men us-young lovers—a trance to believe that smiles or frowns from one woman were once of greater moment to them than - the rise or fall of slocks has now become.. And the grim old factor, whose brows were puckered into a continual frown, and whose mouth had become ostraight stern line, with grooves like wrinkles oh-eitber sida of.it,scarce looked "the hero'of a love tale.” Yet Caleb'Oraymarsh had been young once,. And had levied his little Eitty with a strong, manly She was the sole love of his life, the only woman who had ever made his heart heat. ';"When be won her, sim ple country girl though‘.she whs, no monarch was fonder of his ,qnlen, although all but his '.wife believed him cold-hearted, and wondered wliht charm young,'blue-eyed Kitty bad found in. his stern face. Only Caleb Gray marsh him seiflknew how; w,ell he loved his - wife, and when' the sod was piled above her breast, be knelt, above it, tearless speechless, and prayed silently that God would let him' die also.

One of, those rare and terrible .moments came to Caleb Graymafsh as be knelt above bis young wife’s grave, but none who knew him ever guessed it. They saw, a few moments after-, wards, a. plain, homely working man, with a; erppe about bis bat, rise to Jug. feet, and plod slowly bomeward, and, seeing, no tears in his eyes , and bearing no complaint from his. lips, thought be did not feel’ mach. and so left him. But Caleb Oraymarsb, having no living kin dred, and not being at that time rich enough to have made, friends, took the wailing-, baby .from the woman who bad cared for it; while he had followed, its mother to the grave, and nursed it all night, feeling a strange comfort in'the soft cheek be held against la* own, and in.tbe unconscious trifling of tiny fingers about his face. He had thought very little of the baby while hie wife lived, save tea-pet and a plaything; it is well enough for him to have, bat now he experienced a new feeling towards it. It would grow, perhaps, to have her form and, features. He wished it were a girl instead of a hoy; and yet even now he felt he was not quite desolate, since Ood bad' left him this. And so, when the morning dawned, and the golden- sunbeams crept through the bed-room window, they fell on Caleb Graymarsh fast aleep, with, bis baby oh his bosom. He put the child to nurse the next day’and went about bis work as usual. Whatever were bis feelings, he never spoke of them to any one, and, young as be was, he bad a-grim; un social way with him. which encouraged none to seek bis confidence. On Sundays, instead of going with most of the other men to drink end frolic, or joining the few more sober mind ed at church, Caleb Graymarsh went- to the country place, where his baby was at nurse, and kept it with him under the green trees all the day long. And the child, unconscious as it really must have been, was so strangely happy and contented that one might easily have imagined that its little eyes coaid see and refid the tender secret of that rough working man’s soul. Year and year passed by, and plodding care and' industry helped Caleb Graymarsh, to climb the ladder of fortune. At first, some deft han diwork brought him higher wages'; then he became foreman, and at last a partner in the very establishment which he had first entered a friendless boy, ordered and cuffed about by any one who chose to take the trouble. The steps wisre short and easy after this. and, twen ty years from the day bn which he had knelt beside his young wife's grave, the black ehim vuvi hia (itm ‘ijio of the trim New England . town, and- people spoke of Caleb Graymarsh as a person of wealth and influence. , l In his life this man bad married two strong passions—the lore for -his dead wife, and the greed of wealth; not a miser’s lore of hoard ing, but the pride of possession. Caleb Gray marsh liked to see envious eyes turned npon him, pin'd was fond of boasting and display.— Very little sympathy' had be, either, for a poor man. What bo had done he believed that oth ers might do also. Those who worked for him knew this, and expected no kindness from him. He was strictly just, and sometimes even re warded success by liberality; hut be never com roisaerated failure or misfortune. . Few heartily liked him, bat all, with accord, seemed to warm towards his, son,-young Harr; Graymarsh, a gonial, good-humored fellow, just come to man’s estate, and handsome enough to tarn the. heads of all the girls in M——. He whs, ns Caleb hoped be might he, bis mother’s image. Ho had her bine eyes and fair hair, her gentle smile and impulsive heart. Old Caleb bad merely education enough to enable him to read and write and cypher in an imperfect manner; bat his son bad been taught as well and tbor onghlyos any lad throughout the lirnd. The grim factor- -looked what he was, a working man risen to prosperous circumstances and wearing good clothes; but the son might bars been'of royal blood-for anytbipg yon could* guessed to-the contrary. Once home from college, young Harry Gray marsh was often seen in the factory, passing, with a kindly look and a laugh, along the ranks of the grim workmen who toiled in tbe lower part of tbe huge building, or pausing to chat with some blushing girl, who moved with light step and graceful arms,- bare to the dimpled elbow, amongst the whirring wheels and spin-- dles npon the upper'floor. -Even tbe bent old men and tbe.pale factory children had a word from him, slnd many a comfortable blanket and warm shawl found its "way, at Christmas, to the .dwelling of - some old Wot kwoman; “dreadful bad with tbe rbearoatiz," at the bidding of “ young' Master. Harry.” - i : There came at last amongst the forces in the women’s room, one who, to the rapturous eyes of Harry Graymafsb, waa wondrousiy beauti ful. An Italian sort of fdoe, with liquid black eyes, and hair so dark that there really was a purple glass npon it in tbe sunshine.' It was the face which riveted tbe chain' that first at tracted the factor’s son, hot it was tbe Spul that riveted the chain which beauty first s twined around his heart. - ’ i : She was not ignorant, arid though abe was poor, there was an innate refinement in every movement. And so, by alow . degrees,' froin a casual interchange' of words, they came to whispered conversations by the river side, and long, summer ‘evening rambles in the green woods, and,'before-long, be' bad told her how beautiful sbe'seemed to him,-and bow tenderly hajoved her; and the girl, by blnshe's and si lence rather than by words, bad revealed! the secret of her heart tobim. „ J And then) one glorious day, when' the sun was setting and great flocks of birds were| fly ing homeward across the cloudless' sky—When the distant mountains were all aflame,'and every quivering leaf upon the a shim mering ' point of gold, Harry Graymarsh and Alice t<ee were belrolbed'to eafch other; and so perfectly did she love him and trust bis love for ber, that she never thought “ He is rich apd I .am poor,”-but only, ** He loves me. 1 ” '. j Whether in those summer rambles Harry T r f T; 5. jt, ;-u V”. J. (iITA • H i Graymarsh ever thought-Of his father, I do not, know. He had never bepn thwarted bybim in 'ott his life, and perhaps he could not imagine that the rodfof parental authority sbooldfirst be -wielded in a'manner of such import;'be sides what, was :th ere in modest, beautiful Alice- Lee to awaken.any one’s aversion?. Certain it ■is.that when one evening, sitting on the bank "beside the river, with his arm, about the waist of his betrothed, Harry lifted ,up his eyes and flaw his father standing behind him. Ho felt bashful and confused, but not alarmed. The old man vanished as softly as be had appeared, and poor'Alice did'not even see him, bot a storm wos -brewing, and it broke rover Harry.Graymarsh’a bead that very evening. “Do you know you are the Son of the rich est man in the place said Qraymersh, stand ing crimson with rage before;bis son; “that you might marry an heiress if you like ? and here I find yon making love to a girl in my own factory, and yon say you mean to- marry her— yon actually! say that to my face.” ■ , “T repeat it," replied Harry: "we are be trothed! ' • ‘There were hot words between the father and son after that-; taunts and reproaches, the first which had ever passed their lips, and the son went down upon their wrath. , They parted for the night in anger, and neither slept, .It is an awful thing when those who love first, quarrel, and wonnds are made which are the harder to heal for the memory of past tenderness. Old Qraymarsh. bad been in his-own way a tender father and Harry a dutiful son. A stern pa rent and a bad child coaid have been reconciled more easily.. . Since affluence bad given him the opportuni ty to he more idle, old Caleb had felt some touches of the goaf, and one of- them twinged and tweoned him the nextmorning. Therefore be sent a grudging message to Harry, telling him that he must go in bis place to the' factory that morning, and received an angry bat' obe dient answer. Then, before Harry was off, a servant left the honse with a note for Alice Lee, bidding her not to go to work that day, hot present herself before bhn in an hoar’s time. She roast bojgot rid of, he thought. He would bribe.ber to J5O to some distant place. This common factory girl could not wed his Harry. But when she stood before him in her modest beauty, it was very hard for him to speak to her os he had intended. This was no coarse creature, ambitions of wealth and. setting snares for the rich man’s son: something of the soul of Harry’s dead mother sbono upon the old man from her earnest eyes, and he feit somewhat softened. They were together in a little room, tho win dow of which looked upon the factory; she vyas standing near the casement with her eyes POOP the V ’ no w “* "• ajH trifling with some papers and wondering bow to begin. In the silence, the whirr, whirr of the machinery came plainly to their ears, and Caleb thought the noise was strangely loud and dis tinct. He remembered that, impression long affbr, and wondered that it did not trouble him more at that moment. As it was he only thought—” what shall I say Why does that girl in her shabby dress look so much like a lady tbat I am afraid of insulting her by words that seemed so easy to say awhile ago ?” Softened though Caleb was, he was still a -grim, hard old man, and his mind bad been made np too firmly to change it now. He opened bis lips, closed them again, and cleared bis throat and began. “ Miss Alice Lee, I have seroothing to say to yon. I shall make you angry, I suppose, but I can’t help it. You will please attend to me.” She did not look at him, hot stood Staring, in an awful manner, from tbs window; “I am speaking to too. Do you'Kear me ?” the old man repeated; but before the words had left his lips, Alite had fumed >nd caught him by tbe arm, and then with an awful roar, like the voice of some fiend, an explosion oc curred which sbook tbe house, a chorus of wail ing screams and groans, and then a terrible silence.. i There were great black torrents of smoke ponring from the window of tho factory, and tbe wall toward the side where most of tbe great engines were, bulged; and' tottered, and fell, and the roof caved inJond before them in an instant, as though sonde fiend had been at work, stood a ruin, black and horrible, smoking and steaming mass, and seeming with its awful yawning jaws to groan and s scream'. And from tbe lips of the father and those of tbe betrothed maiden broke one wbrd| simultaneously— • Harry 1” It united them'in their great love and terror. They clung together, feeling tbe link between them for the first time. Butb loved biro, and be—oh I what was he now! a living, breathing being, or a mass of crushed flesh, senseless, helpless; lost to them 'forever ? Together they roibed out into the open air, seeking him or what remained of him;. Otg the awful sight fhat summer sun ehone upon! Men, dead and dying, crushed and mu tilated, jay stretched upon the ground. The women of.tho village came info the streets, some withtheir bare arms wet with soap-suds, some with babies on their i bosoms, wailing'and shrieking,. sobbing and fainting, clinging to corpses which an. hoar before bad been breath ing men, peering with livid faces into horrible black holfows in the wall whence, hands and feet protruded; listening for groans nnder those piles of <rabbisb, that they ; might'hear the voice of some Idved one amid those awful sounds; and there amidst the ruins of bis mighty fac tory, stood the old man, calling aloud for help to save his Harry.' - ’ - V , “There is no hops Tor him, sit,” said ono of the few workmen who remained unhurt. “He went down to see what was" the matter, when the odd noise- first began, and never came np again." ■ -j . “Hnsbl” cried'tWold man. “Do you dare to tell n»e there is no hope. They shall save Harry j” - And then turning to. the trembling girl beside him, ha repeated in a caressing way; “Nererfear, my lass, they shall save roy Har ry; and be shall:: have you or what else he likes. I'll; never, thwart, him again.; But if there’s a God above us, he’ll save roy Harry." This was the burden of his talk, while laborers/ .~>‘J i TOE. 'A 1 were Sard at-work digging away the! rubbish and bridging' out dead bodies by the score.- Men ground to pulpy horrors! beautiful girls with torn limbs t and children so alike in this awful death that : every' one *was claimed and straggled for. by twenty mothers. , All day'long they dug and lifted iron weights and mosses of stone, but there was no sign of Harry Vbody yet. At the bottom of that nyful pile no doubt be lay mangled into shapeless ness. Alice knew that it moat ha eo, hat the old man kept saying, still—“ They shall save Harry.” • . ; Dusk had come, and the; worked by torch light now. All had been found dead or dying, wounded and maimed. -They were carried to their homes. Yet still the crowd was; thick 'about the ruin, waiting for the moment' when what was left of Harry Graymarsfa should be brongh into the open air. An awful silence prevailed, only, the click of spade and pickaxe broke it. Suddenly there was s shout, a lifting of those hundred voices. They had come to the lower, door of the building, and part of it retrained entire. There was ~ a little hope ; yea, more than a little.; for listening, they heard a faint voice calling to them, so it seemed, though the words wore inaudible. Faster now—there aro great rafters to lift, and piles of stones and ma chinery to cast out. But that voice inspires them. They worked as they never worked be fore, and at last they hear the cry again. It .comes from the .part of the .cellar where (ho floor remains. And one great man, crouching on his face, forces himself down into the iblaok ness and screams—“ Who is there ?” ‘ And the answer is returned from the awful cavern—“ Harry Graymarsh. Help me if you can." Then the men oot with a glorious shout, and set to work like giants; and even women came to help, as they thought of the fair youdg face buried in that darkness. He may he niaimed and wounded, but at least be lives. And there is no pause, no respite from that toil. jAt an other time many there- would! faint benr but not now, for every lifted stone bringi closer to the buried man, and gives him aj lease on life. As the morning broke tl is heaved aside, and the bronzed giar before crept into the cavern leaps dp' and vanishes in the shadow. Silence, in whatyou might hear a pin fall of' a heart beat—silence that freezes the blood —'• and then, breaking npon it, a woman’s s steam ; a shriek from the lips of Alice, as they bring in a form of her lover, bioed-stained and sense less, to the light. Not dead 1 oh, np I she thanked God for that. The great beams had protected him. lie was braised and wounded, 'but not 'mortally, and in a little while his blue eyes open, and his pale tips whispered, “ Fa ther, I" ~ \ Then the old factor kneeling by his phild as he had knelt upon his dead wife’s grave] so long ago, took the white hand of Alice in Jiis own and placed it in his son’s. " She is (yours,” -be said, “ take her Harry and be happy.— Wealth isn’t worth ns much ns love. I should have known that all along, remembering Kitty, Live, Harry 1 only live I and I’ll never do any thing to grieve you !” , I And Harry did live. Long before the win ter snows bad come, he stood—a little paler and thinner than before, perhaps, but well and strong again—before the altar of the little church, with Alice by his side, aud, that nigh£, when the moon was, high and no one watched him but the angels, the old factor stood beside his Kitty's grave, and whispered words of yearn ing love, which told that the soul of the young lover-only slumbered in its iron-bound case, and that when death should set it free it would rise, pure and unsullied to meet its angel wife in heaven. 1 ' - Pebils or Pbecooixt. —Babtlet mentions ono hundred and sixty-three children endowed with extraordinary talents, among whom- few arrived at an advanced uge, Tbe two sons of Qaintilian, io vaunted by their father, did not reach their tenth yean Hcrmogenes, who, at tbe ago of taught rhetoric tp Marcus Au relius, who triumphed oyer the most celebrated rhetoricians of Greece, did not die, but at 24 lost faculties, and forgot nil he had previ ously acquired.

This wonderful child was unfortunately carried off in his fourth year. ' Novel Treathent.—Jaundice proceeds from many myriads of little flies of a yellow color, which fly: about the system. Now, to core this, make the patient take a quantity of the ova ,of eggs of spiders. These! eggs,, when taken into the stomach, by the warmth of that organ, vivify! and, being vivified, ot.course they immediately proceed to catch the flies. Thus the disease is cured; and then send the patient down- to the sea-side to wash-all the cobwebs oflt of tbo system. “GRANnifi, do you know why;l see up in the sky so for?” asked Charlie, a little four year old, of a venerable lady* whb eat in the garden knitting; “ No, my dear; why ia it ?" said grandma, bending her ear, eager to catch and remember tbo wise saying of the little pet.

They , may seem too personal, and, perhaps egotisti . cal; yet I prefer the blunt “1" to (he oblique ' “ we,"; or “your correspondent," when I may 1 wish, to say anything. To-day Is Monday Last Thursday I was on ’ the detail for picket, with one hundred and | sixty-four men from our regiment, and early in 1 the morning,after-packing up what rations I could well carry, strapped on the marching ' harness and set bat with the hoys on a three : days' sojourn to the front A few days of good weather had preceded, and we could but ■ expect bad weather; so that, when we found ! ourselves in the midst storm continuously do -1 ring our term, we were not surprised. In our division there are three brigades, which fur nish the picket guards for it successively for three days at a time, leaving us, under the present arrangement, three days off and eiz days on. Since our detachment at the Land* ing (about one-half our duty men) has been recalled, the duty is not so frequent with the men; and the officers usually take turns alter nately on picket.. At lO o’clock we had formed the guard and begun preparations for making' our stay there as comfortable as the industry • of the soldiers would allow. The picket was divided into two wings—we held the right, which furnished eleven vedettes to stand guard in the front line; Each man, as is the custom in all guard duty, was to' stand one-third of the time, so that we needed three reliefs of' thirty-three men each,’besides the officers'and non-commissioned officers in charge of them. One relief went out for twenty-four hours; i| was divided into three supports, or posts, re spectively 9,’ 15 and 9 men, 1 corporal at each post, a sergeant and lieutenant in the center with the-15 men. Each post of 0 men fur nishes 3, and the center furnishes S vedettes; which are relieved every two hours. The front - line is about 400 yards from the main reserve. On the reserve.one sentinel is posted, and one half the men are required to keep their belt* on and remain in readiness to prevent surprise. / The field officers, one for the brigade, one for' : the division, and one for the corps, (if l ata right,) make the rounds frequently to see that these and other instructions are carried out; The countersigns at present are running ‘upon the names of places, and are entrusted to the sentinels at night-full. Major Ryon was oat with us, as he is now returned to order from the War Department; He left us, it will be remembered, while. at ; Brook’s Station, laboring under a severe attack ' of acute rheumatism and fever. He bad a ’ leave, I think, for thirty days, with a reference to certain general orders, by complying withL which, in cue of continued disability, ho would be entitled to au' extension of the timq. He was unable to'return at the expiration l of his first Uavo, and he forwarded a certified stater meat of a practicing physician to that effect; But, by some means or other, no notice Was taken of it, and be was reported absent with-, oat leave, and dropped fromithe rolls, by which' means great injustice has bejen done him by the publication of bis name in such a list, without the least statement of the facta, to accompany it, inasmuch as that nothing was then known! of them at headquarters. On bis arrival hers he Immediately called for a Court of Inquiry; and having*presented the most perfect and clear evidence that his absence was legitimate; and that ha was manifestly entitled to an ok tension during his absence before said oourt,' it immediately decided in bis favor, and an order of the War Department restored him to full pay and honor of rank as soon as the cose wee' thus fairly and fully presented. "Whether any injury was intended may or may not. be infer red ; at all events, he stands to-day better and fairer before the regiment, and all the officers' knowing to' the transactions, than ever before. ' He is gentlemanly), accommodating, free to'' speak and shake bands with his soldier friends; and in consequence stands high in the estima-' tion of the men of this regiment. I informed yon in a former letter that Col. Thomas M. Bayne, formerly onr much admired and worshipped colonel, bad resigned and re -turned home on account of sickness. Having recovered, he’,wished to return,-and was re instated.- Never was a turn.of affairs met with more enthusiastic favor 1 Every heart echoed' a cheer, every band is rendered more willing at the unexpected return of a leader whom all have justly been proud to own and follow ns subh, and whom we oil revercEcs ncd henrtily obey ana most generous and enthusiastic com-' mnnder. Ho is a young lawyer of Pittsburg; a man of merit and caliber, worthy of any position, and able to meet the highest expecta tion. To me it is a-great satisfaction, for ! ever admired bim as a man of genius and spirit; and worthy of the highest success. Most-brave' and cool in battle, if it be onrs to verge upon’ another such ordeal, may he at least survive - and reap the. reward his patriotism, valor and' unbending manhood merit. We have received an order which bespeaks 1 activity. It induces the baggage of officers to 1 - almost nothing—orders that which is surplus to be sent.away, and limits .transportation-so' ns to be packed epon males; in fixed ratio tn the number of officers. I, however, doubt tbe expediency of a movement at this time,- and believe this to beranotber evidence of tbe earn estness and capability of Hooker, preparatory to’ an active campaign, should the Rebels re-' dace their forces on the. Rappahannock. ■ The-first of April wgll soon -be at hand; .«• ' largo portion of this Jirmv will probably be 1 discharged early in May; and if there is a prospect of success, we may and ought to ex pect activity and fighting, i Tbe dread of Fred-' ifricksbarg has passed away; this army is fast improving, and-will vindicate its reputation before tbe world anon. Let patriots North put ' down traitors at home, write good encouraging. ' and enthusiastic letters to their friends here' risking all for their common conntry, and all will yet be well. The fears of a few months ago have passed a^ay; for a manly deterniius-' tion to seo the Constitution and country peri •petnated prevails at the North, and soldiers no, longer have reason to doubt the earnestness of tbe government.
