I come from a land where a beautiful light Is creeping o’er hill-top and vales Where broad is the field, and the harvest is white, But the reapers are wasted and pale. All wasted and worn with their wearisome toll, Still they pause not, that brave little band; Though soon their lone pillows must be the strange soil Of that distant and grave-dotted strand. For dangers uncounted are clustering there; Tho pestilence stalks uncontrolled; Strange poisons are borne on the soft languid air, And lurk in each leafs fragrant fold. There the rose never blooms on fair woman’s wan cheek, But there’s a beautiful light in her eye, And the smile that she wears is so loving and meek, Rone can doubt it comes down from the sky. There the strong man Is bowed In his youth’s golden prime, But he oheerily slugs at his toil, For,he thinks of his sheaves and the garnering time Of the glorious Lord of the soil. And ever they turn—that brave little band, A long wistful gate towards the West— “Do they come? Do they eome from that dear dis tant land— That land of the lovely and blest?” “Do they come? Do they come? OU we’re feeble and wan, And we’re passing like shadows away; But the harvest is white, and 10l yonder the dawn; For laborers —for laborers, we pray." “ONLY MOTHER.” OK THE FIRST LESSONS IN DRILLING. The July sun was almost overhead in the hea vens, drinking np the water from the little brooks, and fairly scorching the short grass in the pas tures. The cattle left feeding in the meadows, and stood knee-deep in the pond, where the thick shadows of the wood fell Over it. It was far too warm to work, or even to play, so the boys who had been standing all the morning with their fish ing-lines dangling over the railing of the bridge, put up their hooks and threw themselves down in the cool shade of the old elms on the bank. They made a very pretty picture as they lay there, with their shirt-collars unbuttoned, and their moist hair pushed back from their flushed faces. One of them, Willie Downer, had a pictorial newspaper in his pocket, with large engravings of the com panies of soldiers at Washington, their camp grounds, flags, and cannon, and the uniforms they wore. He spread the paper on the grass, and. be gan explaining the pictures to his companion, Archie Morris. “If I was only old enough,” said Willie, ear nestly, “I should enlist for a soldier. It would be so grand to go and fight for the country, and help defend our liberties. Don’t you wish you were a man, Archie? ” “Yes,” said Archie, “I should like to be a man, but mother says we need not wait till that time to be brave ; we can show our courage now.” “I know,” said Willie; “cousin Lyman joined the company, and he is only three years older than I, but then he is as tall as father, every bit." “That wasn’t what mother meant,” said Archie; “she said a good soldier must be ready to under take any duty, and it took a great deal more courage to do little disagreeable things than to march up in the face of an enemy to battle. Then she said the first duty of every soldier was to learn to obey orders, and that is just what we boys are doing.” W illie looked a good deal dissatisfied, and did not seem to like this view of the matter; bat just at this moment somebody came to the door of one of the white cottages just below the bridge, and called, “ Willie 1 Willie!” He did not stir, but went on examining the paper. looking towards the houses. ... . . v “It's only mother ," replied Willie; “she wants me to go of some errand, and I am not going out in this hot sun.” Archie looked at him a moment in astonishment, and then asked, “But what will she say when you go home?” “0,” said Willie, carelessly, “she won’t know I heard her, for I didn't turn my head a bit.” “She is going to the spring for water," said Archie, still watching the house; “1 would scorch my face to a blister before I would lie here and let my mother do that.” “Poohl” said Willie, “that’s nothing; she is so used to being over the hot stove that she don't mind it much.” Just then a woman with a baby in her arms came to the window of the other cottage, and called Archie. “Ay, ay! ” said Archie, springing op and swing ing his hat towards the house. “Don’tgo yet, Archie,”said Willie; “just wait till we finish this paper; it won’t make any differ ence.” “I’m learning to obey orders said Archie; “besides, I know mother wants me to take oare of baby while she gets dinner.” “ I do hate baby-tending; it's girls’ work,” said Willie. “So is cooking and washing clothes, but the soldiers have to do both. Right about face!” said he, shouldering his fish-pole, and starting for borne, “my company has received marching or ders.” “ Jußt in time, Archie,” said his mother, placing the baby in his arms. “I see my volunteer means to be on hand whenever his orders come.” Now, Archie really disliked tending baby, very much, especially on suoh a warm day, when it took all his patience and ingenuity to amuse his little brother, made unusually fretful by the heat. But one glance into the heated kitchen, where his mo ther was busy over the glowing stove, made him think himself very fortunate to be able to remain in the sitting room, with closed blinds and opened windows. But baby was not at all pleased with the darkened room. He would not sit on the floor and roll Archie's ball; he would not laugh at all Archie’s antics and grimaces; he wanted to be carried, and carried he must be. “Come on, then,” said Archie, tossing him to his shoulders. “Now I'm bn a forced march from Washington to . Texas, and this is my knapsack and blanket. Heavy load, hot weather—mercury up to 100 degrees in the shade-whole army of secessioners running away from ns—bound to get there before morning—band strike up Yankee Doodle”—and he commenced rapidly pacing the room, whistling Yankee Doodle to baby’s great satisfaction. Just as he was beginning to find it pretty hard work, the door opened, and his sister Sarah came in from school. “Turn out and relieve guard,” said Archie, dropping the baby into her lap, and throwing himself full length on the caTpet. “You're full of your war nonsense," said Sarah, laughing,” “ 0, well, said Archie, “ anything to amuse baby apd keep a fellow good-natured this hot weather.” Willie Downer lay still under the tree for a while after Archie left him, thinking wbat great things he would do when he grew up to be a man; how be would be a brave general, and lead armies to battle, and be milled the defender of his country. Then, when ha thought dinner was about ready, he got up and sauntered Blowly home. His tired mother was hurrying about the kitchen with the baby on one arm, trying to pre pare the food for the table* “0, Willie,” she said, “I have wanted you to help rue so much. Mary is sick with the heaaaohe, and while I was gone for cool water for her the baby woke up, and I have had to carry him around ever since. I called you twice, but you didn’t hear me.” Willie felt a little guilty at these words, but he did not make any answer, except to complain of the heat, and ask how soon dinner would be ready. His listless attempts at amusing the baby only made him fret the more, till Mary rose slowly from her pillow and took him in her arms. “0, dear!" said Willie, dropping upon the sofa where his sister had been lying, “I do wish I was a man, and could do something worth doing.” “ You might have found enough to do, if you had been at home this forenoon,” said Mary; “poor mother needed you sadly." “I don’t like tending baby and bringing wood and water, and such tiresome work,” said Willie, scornfully; “ I think mother might keep a girl to do it for her." ° “Willie,” said his sister, “I think you must have forgotten the first verse of your Bible lesson last Sabbath. ‘He that is faithful in that which is least, is faithful also in much; and he that is un just in the least, is unjust also in much.' Suppose a company of soldiers were going to be attacked by an enemy, and instead of preparing to defend them selves, should just lie idle and wait for their coming. ‘ Why don’t you go to work and throw up some fortifications, and get your rifles all in order, and your big guns mounted?’you would, ask them. ‘o,’ they would say, ‘we don’t like digging trenches, and cleaning arms, and drilling and prac tising; we are going to fight, t and when the enemy comes, you will see how brave we are.’ What foolish soldiers 1 you would say, and so I say to you, What a foolish, soldier! Here you are with your fort to build, and you haven't laid up any store of ammunition, or learned how to use your weapons, and yet you are impatient for the enemy to eome. Don’t you know that every time you give up your own pleasure for the good of others there is one big stone in your fort; every time you cheerfully submit to little uncomfortable, un pleasant things, there is another stone. Every thing new that you learn is so much ammu nition laid up for use; the great things are cannon balls, and the little things are powder and shot. It takes a great deal of patient drilling to make a good soldier, Willie, but one good one can accom plish more than a great many poor ones.” “ Give me the baby,” said Willie, jumping up, “ mother told me to take eare of him, and I’ll be gin to drill by learning to. obey orders; Archie says that’s the first thing. I have been thinking what a bravo man I would be, Mary, but I see, after all, I have been acting like a coward, and deserve to be drummed out of camp.” THE BRIGHT SIDE. BY REV. WM. M. THAYER. “He always looks on the bright side,” said Mr. Ashton, as if it were a great failing of his neigh bor. But what, side would he have him look on, if not the bright one, pray? What a queer taste a man must have to prefer the dark side, espe cially when he can enjoy the bright one just as cheaply! What if he does get disappointed once in a while, because he has basked too mueh in the sunshine? that is not very bad; only just half as bad as it is to look on the dark side, and be disappointed, too. No llf a person can’t look on the bright side, better not look anywhere. The bright side is much larger than the dark side. There is far more sunshine in this world than there is shadow. Sunshine is the rule, and storm the exception. So it is in the moral world. Joy is more plenty than sorrow. Prosperity covers whole acres; adversity darkens only scattered patches. Sunshine pours down in great floods of light day after day; but clouds hang darkling over us only now and then, just enough to make us bless the sunshine more. How, then, can a person help seeing the bright side ? It is the very first side that the eyes gaze upon; generally the side next to you. But some people always ma nage to behold the other side first. They get a glimpse of the back side soonest. We can hardly tell how it is done; enough that it is done. But who wants to possess this wonderful faculty? Bishop Hall once quaintly remarked, “For every bad there might be a worse; and when a man breaks his leg, let him be thankful that it was not his neck,” That is real Christian phi losophy. He who saves his neck in some great calamity, ought to think himself fortunate, though a leg be missing. Not that he values legs leas, but necks more; and his gratitude for the delive rance will show that he appreciates blessings just as God sends them. All for looking on the bright self wretched oyer his broken leg. He sees every body else around him with two sound limbs a-piece, while he has only one left, and it is such hard fare, in his view, that he mourns as if all wetp lost. The idea of seeing a bright side to a broken leg seems preposterous to him, and he is almost vexed with the simple-hearted, trusting Christian who suggests such a thing. Well! Let him take the worst view of it possible, if he will; it is just the way to spoil all his happiness hereafter. For one, we prefer a single sound limb, and a bright side, to two good healthy ones with a dark side. It was Dr. Johnson, I think, who said, that “ the habit of looking on the bright side is better fhan a thousand pounds a year.” Now, we go in for this big salary, a thousand pounds a year. We never expect to get so much as this in clean cash, but then its equivalent should be joyfully accepted. And what is pleasant and really heart stirring about it is, that every one who will, can have this blessed income that is worth a thousand pounds a year. Since it depends not upon wealth or position whether a person shall have a bright side to look at or not, but upon a trusting, be lieving, regenerated heart, all who will can share the prize. And it is a prize better than a farm or nice house, or even a store of goods, to many a probationer; particularly for the reason that it is never cut down by hard times. Then let no one forget that a bright side is worth a thousand pounds a year or more. ISisxdlaiUffus. HON. ME. DICKINSONS WYOMING ADDEESS. We give some extracts from this address which was delivered a few weeks ago, in Wyoming, Pennsylvania. Its arguments. have a directness and homeliness calculated to carry conviction to every mind. Mr. Dickinson's position has thoroughly identified him hitherto with the Demo cratic party, of which he has been one of the lead ers in New York State. “You would not coerce a state?” No; I would not coerce a state —first, because it is impractica ble; because you cannot coerce a state, Second, because it would be unjust to eoeree a state in its domestic policy, if it could be done. But yott may ederei 'rebellion in a state Until you give that sta,te an opportunity to act through its loyal citi zens in its duties to the Union. And I would eoeree rebellion wherever I could find it. You may not coerce a community, but you may eoeree its thieves and murderers. You may eoeree state criminals, and thus enable the state and its loyal citizens to fulfil their relations in the government of the Union. If we can sustain our Union, if wc can uphold our Constitution, it is not by com promising with rebellion—it is by putting down rebellion and making our compromise with fidelity. And of all men living, a Democrat is the last man who can take a stand against the Constitution of his country. Just in proportion as the Democracy has wandered from the Constitution, just in the same proportion have they gone down. * * * And I believe it to be my duty to stand upon the ramparts of the Constitution and defend it from all foes, whether they come from the North, the South, the East or the West. There were causes of irritation between the sections, I admit. 1 de precated them, and labored long and earnestly to get rid of them. But it was not done. Those causes of irritation, although they may have sug gested to Southern States to request becoming guarantees, they never justified armed rebellion in any shape or manner. And what were those causes of irritation? The only real, practical cause of irritation was the non-execution of the fugitive slave law. But that did not affect the cotton States so called; but Missouri, Kentucky, Virginia, Maryland, and Delaware, and perhaps one or two other states were the only ones ever in jured by it. The cotton states, so called, never lost a fugitive slave from the time of their exis tenee_ to this day. To be sure they had a question about territories, but it was entirely ideal, a mere abstraction, and so practically not a real grievance. But if it had be'en they had the supreme court and both branches of Congress, and practically had control of the question. The fugi tive slave question was the only practical question which annoyed them, and that question was no the cause of the rebellion. What state first se ceded? South Carolina began to scrape lint be fore the vote was counted. She had no praetiea grievance whatsoever. Look at Virginia. 1 “ OU S politicians cajoled, cheated, and defrauded, and bullies held bowie-knives at throats of her citizens to coerce rebellion, it was a long time before t ley could compel that state into anything like seces sion.. And when they did so nominally, the state government was revolutionized, one part flew away from the other and organized their government, rather than allow it to go into the bottomless pit of seoession. . Maryland, when she gets a chance, votes against it. Missouri—-her citizens are pour- out their blood like water and their treasure without stint, rather than be drawn into secession. Look at good old Kentucky, where her governor and senators have labored to bring her out of the XJ n | on —after all attempts to seduce her from her fidelity to the Constitution, she gives more than sixty thousand majority for the Union. Now I inquire of all her citizens in the free states, espe cially my Democratic fellow citizens, whether they are troubled about the integrity of Kentucky —whether they think it is necessary to stay up the bands of rebellion in Kentucky, so emphati cally condemned there? And now I repeat, the ’aly practical cause of dissension was the fugitive slave question; and that-appertained tostutesthat could only be drawn or dragooned into the folly of secession. General Butler has had this question on his hands. As long as the was acknowledged, all conservative citizens admitted that it was the duty of the free states to restore the fugitive who was fleeing from the service, of his master. Gen. Butler has found the restoration of the fugitives impracticable in many, cases. The master had thrown off the Constitution. What was the result? He was obliged to receive hun dreds of contrabands, and maintain them. Ido not know what he is going to do with the question; but I suppose lie is going to do with them some thing as the Irishman was going to do with the Widow Malone’s pig. “ Did you steal the Widow Malone’s pig, Patrick?” asked the priest. “ That I did.” “.What made you? Think, where you will stand, you heretic, in the Great Day, when I shall be there, and you will be there, and tho Widow Malone will be there, and the pig will be there.” “And will your riverenee he there?” “Yes.” “And the Widow Malone there?” “Yes.” “And the pig there?” “Yes.” “Well, I should say, Widow Malone, take your pig.” Now, I do not know but General Butler is going to take as long a credit as did the Irishman. But, when we have a Constitution, and when they acknowledge its force, I have no doubt but every just citizen will be for seeing it complied with. Now, I have just as mueh confidence in the masses of the Southern people as in the masses of the Northern people. Both are alike. The masses are honest. To be -sure, their institutions,, their means of communication, render them more exci table, more easily led, and more relying upon their leaders for public information, and therefore more liable to be misled than Northern people. Nevertheless, I have confidence in the Southern people; and the result of the great conflict in Kentucky assures me that the Southern heart is with the people sound to the core. Though ter rified into seeming secession, with the exception of one or two states in the South, I am well satis fied that if the question of Union or disunion were submitted to the people to-day an over whelming vote would be given for the Union and its stars and stripes. If those secession leaders bad opposed Mr. Lincoln’s election from the time of the Charleston Convention with half the perti nacity and force that I did, he never would have been elected. I charge in all my public speeches that they connived at that election, and the same has been charged home upon them by their own people in the South. Their time had come. It must go, or they would be ruined. They remind one of little boys who want to ride a horse. Those in the city get them a hobby-horse, and they can -~EttftTftlg"Caaft - r male. to get a home to ride, Or even a hobby, have mounted this poor stick of a Southern Confederacy, and are riding that. It is just such ambition as caused the angels in heaven to rebel. It was not because we had not a good government, but be cause they could not rule it. Call them Demo crats, or entitled to sympathy of Democrats, with arms in their hands against the government, and their hands red with the blood of our murdered citizens! They are enemies of their country; they are traitors against the flag and the constitu tion, .and as such I arraign them in the name of the constitution and the Union. I arraign them in the name of Christianity; I arraign them in the name of the fathers of the revolution, who poured out their blood to gain the liberty transmitted to us. In the great day of accounts, the savage Brant and more savage Butler, that deluged the beautiful Ladies’ Repository. Home Monthly. Hmnif an ffuglrirtmait and <&tne#ee valiey of the Wyoming with blood, will stand up and whiten their crimes in comparison with the perfidy of the men who now attempt to divide and destroy the Union, Whoever sustains them, I will not. Whoever cries peace, I will not- Who ever cries compromise with them, I will not. I am for peace, but I am for making peace with the loyal citizens of the South—the loyal citizens of Kentucky and of Missouri too, who have sent that modern Nebuchadnezzar, Claiborne F. Jackson, to grass. * * * .1 know not whether Mr. Lincoln has observed the Constitution; indeed, for all the purposes of resisting the rebellion, I care not. It is due to him to say, however, that he has seemed to be in good faith attempting to put down the re bellion. He has not done things a3l would have done them, because I would have multiplied' his men by about four, and where he has struck one blow I would have struck a dozen. Therefore I do not agree with him in that respect. * * * 1 do not propose to yield this Union, or any part of it, to the so-called Confederate government that has been made up in the Southern states. It is do government, and there is nothing in the shape of a government under it, over it, in it, or around it, diagonally, horizontally, or perpendicularly. Like a boys’ training, it is all .officers. It is made up thus: you shall be President of the Congress, and I will be President of the Confederacy; you shall be minister of foreign affairs, and I will .be... secretary of the treasury. Doubtless, very well; satisfactory enough. If they had kept it to them selves, no one would have objected to their strut:" ting iu their stolen plumage. But it is time for. the people of the United States to put their hand upon it in earnest, and maintain the government of the Constitution. Would any one, if he were commanding at Fortress Monroe, Fort M‘Henry, or any where else, where he was surrounded with treason and traitors at every step, would he, be cause a judge sent a writ of habeas corpus, give up a traitor who was endangering the safety of his command and the interests of the country? No man can pretend it for a single moment; it is one of the terrible necessities of war. And if I were in command and had good reason to believe that I bad possession of a traitor, and no other remedy would arrest treachery, I would suspend the writ, and the individual too. Gen. Jackson had the hearts of the American people more than any man of modern times. And why? Because he met great necessities like a man. He didn’t go, in times of stirring necessity, fo demonstrate problems from musty precedents, but when a man wanted hanging, he hung him first and looked up the law afterward. When the war is over we may examine and see if any one has incurred a penalty for suspending the writ of habeas corpus. Gen. Jackson paid his fine, but not till after he had put down both foreign foes and domestic traitors. * * * Are you in favor of war? No, but lam in favor of putting down war by force of arms. I am opposed to war,' and in favor of obtaining peace by putting down the authors of the war. I aua in favor of peace, but I am in favor of the only course that will insure it—driving out armed re bellion, negotiating with loyalty. We must fight battles and bloody battles. We must call vast numbers of men into the field. We must not go as boys to a general training, with ladies, and idlers, and members of Congress to see the show, but we must go in earnest —go prepared for.action —to fight it as a battle, and not to fight it as a play-spell. We must unite as a whole people, going shoulder to shoulder. And when we do so we shall conque. And why? We have the right, we have th prestige of government, have the sympathy of he disinterested world, we have the moral and n iterial elements to do it all, and to insure victory/ Rebellion has not the financial ability to stand .long war, with all their gains from privateerin' and and issuing Con federate bonds— nade a lien upon the property of people who were ever consulted as to their issue, and who repudue them—worth as much as a June frost, a col< wolf track, which no financier fit to be outside < ‘ the lunatic asylum would give a shilling a peck for. They may vex, they may harass, they may estroy, they .may commit piracy, but the reckonin' is to come for all this. They will be brought t the judgment of the American people—of their iwn people. They will be ar raigned, and who is there will be ready to stand up as their defen srs in the name of the Constitu tion? I know tl ;re are some who fear the war- like power of th' rebellious states. They had a great deal of po er for good; but they have a great deal less th n they imagine or is generally imagined, for ev; We are a-good deal slower in waking up, : bi when waked up we are a. good deal more in ear :St. The tone of the rebel press is exceedingly bi ggart in regard to its men and its victories. I reminds me, when I hear of their self-lauded prowess, of the showman who spoke of the gre t capacity of the animal he - was exhibiting: “I. dies and gentlemen,”.said he, “ this is the Ben il tiger, measuring fourteen feet from ,the tip of h nose to the the, tip of his tail, and fourteen moi from the tip of his tail back to the tip of his n< e, making in all twenty-eight feet.” Now I. tl nk their estimates about their forces and eapaei y are just about as liberal. It will be time eno gh to straggle over who shall administer the. j ftjernmenfc when:w.e> are sure we have one to who is not for it, is against it. I hai&idetermined to fight this battle out, but on no pditioal,grounds. * * * DICKENS ON DAVIS’ PIRATES. Dickens’ “Allthe Year Round” has an inte resting article oli Privateering, which winds up with the followinj denunciation of Jeff Davis', piratical scheme, and England’s ready tolerance of it: “Can we wondr.at the general exclamation.of horror whieh arosV in England when it was re ported that the Southern States of America were about to let fly their privateers at, the North, and all without even $ special protest from England on the folly and hhumanity of the act? Any attempt to partly ilockade a Southern port, and keep in her eottoi, England would noti allow; but let fly a swarn of pirate ships, many of them chartered by the /sum of the North—men who would dive into z n Atlantic of blood, to pick out a dollar, is not even to be protested against. We no longer poigm bullets or stab prisoners, yet we allow legalizedjpitotes to pursue their .devilish calling, merely because those pirates choose to hoist a Southern flag and call themselves Southern privateers. • We Bo think that in future Wars, the toleration of sjteh inhumanity will recoil on us. Who can sow the wind and yet refuse to reap the whirlwind? “ Yet that statesmen should tolerate such things is no wonder. Tljose great-minded helmsmen are too busy in keeping their legs, to trouble them selves about ideals. They have to laugh away popular wrath, to smile away opposition, to seoff away attacks, toj badinage , away reforms that they do not themselves originate. They do not want vexatious debates on abstract subjects. Wars are bad things, but they employ.officers and en courage promotion!; they keep the opposition quiet, and are excuses Jfor,..taxes; they postpone reform and increase ministerial popularity. But the bayoneting, the shooting, the burning, the ruining of women, the defacing of God’s image? Yes, all inconveniences—undeniable inconveniences, but not to be thought of when national welfare requires war to express its .anger, to assert its rights, to retrieve its honor, to extend its territory, or to augment its glory; and, of this justifiable ve. priyateering. is a necessary '“But let me skScn ths-probable evils"resulting from this determination of the South to let loose her privateering murderers. As soon as news is telegraphed from the Secession capital of Alabama to the Southern seaports, that instant the worst of the bankrupt merchants, the rich “rowdies,” and old slave dealers, will fake up every possible old schooner and raking clipper they can find to scour the seas, for rapine and plunder, they will buy some old guns, which, they will get-rifled; they lay in grape shot and round shot; and then put up placards in the bar-rooms and dram shops, aDd colleet sailors. And whom will they get? The patriot —the honest—the merciful—the brave? No: the thieving s drunkard—the homicide—the gang driver—the slave hunter—the runaway con vict—the swindler—the murderer—the seven deadly sins for officers, all the passions for crew, and Apollyon himself for "sailing master. And what will they db first? These men are' mere midnight murderers; they will steal up creeks, and float with muffled oars round harbors; they will seize free negroes, and send them to die in the rice swamps round Savannah river; they will cut brave men’s throats in their sleep, and seize unsuspecting fishing boats, burn quiet seaside vil lages, seize outlying barks, do the devil’s work in God’s name, borne and exult over their patriotic- labors, and/thank Heaven for making them other men than those proud Pharisees of the North. “The motive of a privateersman is plunder. He comes out to stea}—to fight and steal—-but not to fight if he .cannot steal. The privateersman is the common enemy of mankind, as the pirate is; and he should be treated as such, and hanged by who ever can get a rope on his neck. The laws of God and man are.against him. “ Let us. suppose, for a moment that the duel is a lawful combat,! and that the most skilful shot could decide the''right or redress a wrong, Be cause I (A; challenge B for slandering and basely injuring me, is that any reason why all B’s . kins men should thiyk. themselves permitted to go about armed, looting for all my (A’s) relations, in order to stall, rob, and pistol them ? How much more, thent would it be insufferable, if not only B’s friends,[but all the scum and hang dogs of B’s parish shcfuld arm:themselves and sally out to burn my ricks) and harry my stables; and- this because some ridiculous parochial law existed, per-, mittirig apybddjlf paying eighteen and buy ing a stamped to take up B’s quarrel, and injure and tormetat me, A! No! laws are not per fect, nor nations/either; still the nation that en courages privateering is tolerating a wicked and unjust thing. I “ There musipe snakes, nature says; and even the mosquito i»ky have its use in the vast cir cumference of things. But bad and useless as war is, it is not so bad and useless as privateering. It belongs to tile day when religious disputants •burnt each other, and generals plundered, towns that had peen absurd enough not to allow them selves to b|o tak|u without resistance.. It belongs to the agefthat ihutup Galileo for saying that the earth movkd, and it belongs to that earlier age that stonefi the prophets. It is a disgrace to the time, and*is contrary to all the laws of humanity. We no longer employ Indians to scalp our ene mies, norido we cram our prisoners into great ogre images anffi then set them on fire. We have learnt to tamper the horrors of war. But to en courage privateersmen is to let loose swarms of murderers jto'scourge the seas, and to render the commerce pf every nation unsafe; to give the bad privilege, under the protection of a flag, to com mit every oritjie with impunity. Privateering, whatever Groljius, Vattel, Puffendorf, or anybody else may say,r is legalized piracy. The nation that grants, letters of marque grants the right to speculate in himan blood and human life. An age that has £rown ashamed of pouring red-hot shot into defenceless towns, of ravaging unoffend ing territories, of carrying away poor harmless women into infamous Captivity, of torturing pri soners, of poisoning springs, of robbing and slay ing sacked t >wns, ought also to be ashamed of privateering. J-D. B. Be Bow, Esq., has accepted the office of Superintendent-in-chief of the cotton, provision and mineral supply loan of the Confederate States. EFFECTS OF CLIMATE ON SOLDIERS. The Crimean war proved to Englishmen the necessity for an army sanitary commission, which should have the largest powers and privileges for the energetic prosecution of measures by whieh the health of troops may be preserved. We are wisely taking advantage of their experience. Our soldiers will fight the better for knowing that their health and comfort are looked after by men who have the matter at heart, and who are fitted by their studies and experience to perform the work thoroughly. The enemy destroys scarcely ten per cent, of an army. Government returns show that of our forces in Mexico, regular and volunteer, only 1,548 died in battle or of wounds received in bat tle, while 12,848 died of disease, and 12,252 were sent home on account of sickness. Of the French army in the Crimea, 7,500 were slain in battle, 50,000 perished by disease, and 65,000 more were discharged as invalids. Of nearly 94,000 English soldiers in the Crimea, 4,419 were slain in battle or died of wounds; but 16,298 died of disease at the seat of war, and nearly 13,000 were sent home sick. With the timely labors of our, sanitary commission we may hope to show results much more encouraging than these, in our army returns at the close of this war. Meantime, as much has been said of the} pe rils of our Northern troops, of the heats and fe vers of the Southern states, it will not be amiss to look a little at the mortality tables of the Mex ican war. Here, we find, what the British have also discovered iD India, that men born in and coming from colder climates bear fatigue and ex posure in torrid regions much better than troops native to the warmer clime. The rebels* threaten us with their allies, themusketoes,aud “Yellow. Jack;'* but .as we sball presently sh6w, in Mexi co, where Northern'and Southern men fought side by side, the men of the free states bore the rigors of the climate much‘better than those of the slave states. The record is a very curious one; and proves that an army of “gentlemen’' is not altogether a desirable force for anything but militia musters. On April 8, 1848, the Secretary of War made a report to the United States Senate of the losses of the volunteer forces employed in Mexico. From this it appears that seven Northern states—Massa chusetts, New York New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Indiana, Ohio, and Illinois—furnished in the course of that war, 22,578 men. Of this force the total loss from disease was 2,931 men; less than one-eighth of the whole. Nine slave states; — Virginia, North Carolina, South' Carolina, Geor gia, Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, and Ken tucky—furnished 22,899 men. The loss from this force, by disease and death caused by disease, was 4,315, or more than one-fifth —a very consi derable favor of Northern troops; When we go into particulars we find that Mas sachusetts lost of 1,047 men, but 61 by disease while South Carolina, furnishing 1,054 men, or seven more than Massachusetts, lost not less than 328 by disease. Mississippi lost 769 men by dis ease, out of 2,319, while Indiana, furnishing near ly double the number, namely, 4,470, lost only 768. Georgia lost . 362 men by disease, out of 2,047, while New ; York lost but 188, out of a to tal of 2,665. . North Carolina sent 936 and: lost 233 ; while New Jersey sent 424, and lost but 12. Pennsylvania sent 2,464, and lost 411; but Mis sissippi lost 769 out of 2,319- Illinois furnished 5,973 men, and lost 850‘; while Tennessee fur nished only 5,090, but lost not less than 1,186- Alabama lost 323, of a force of 3,011; Arkansas 136, of a force of 1,323 —rather more than ten per cent, in each. Kentucky lost, 709 out of 4,800, /but Ohio, sending 5,530, lost bat 641. The-Texan troops, fighting in a country to whose circumstances and climate they were thoroughly accustomed, lost yet more by disease than the Missourians, wlio. came there from the cold North. Of 7,313 men, Texas lost 360 by disease, while of 6,733 Missourians, only 242 were thus lost. Astonishing as these comparative results are, they might be predicated from a knowledge of the men. The Northern soldier is a man used to la- •ntffi n’y'Vfynti' strong arms a n<f mhiesv mfiiferty?- His muscle is firm—his mind is quiet—his ha bits are such that discipline falls lightly on him. He has been used to endurance, and above all, he has been to school and is an intelligent being, ca pable of adapting his conduct aDd his habits to his circumstances/ But what are the armies of “gentlemen ” of whom rebel papers boast so loud ly? They are men who have spent their days in idle boasting and their nights in dissipation. Their ! relaxed muscles, their restless minds, their igno rance, their lack of self-control and hatred of dis cipline, make it difficult to form them into sol diers. Mr. Russell, who has a sharp eye for a soldier, does not, in his last letter, conceal his pre ference for the men in Port Pickens over those in the rebel camp outside. It is plain that, should it be judged advisable to pursue the Southern campaign this winter, our men, faking equal risks, may expect to suffer less than the enemy from the climate, on which the rebels depend as. one of their safeguards. TO RENDER SHOES WATER-PROOF. One pint of drying oil, two ounces of yellow wax, two ounces of turpentine, and half an ounce of Burgundy pitch, melted carefully over a slow fire. If new boots or shoes are rubbed with this mixture, either in the sunshine or at some dis tance from the fire, with a sponge or soft brush, and the operation is repeated as often as they be come dry, till the leather is fully saturated j they will be impervious to wet, and will wear much longer, as well as acquiring a softness and pliabi lity that will prevent the leather from ever shri velling. Shoes or boots prepared in this manner, ought not to’be worn till perfectly dry and elastic, otherwise their durability would rather be pre vented than increased. Another. —This simple and effectual remedy is nothing more than a little bees’-wax and mut ton suet, warmed in a pipkin, until in a liquid state; then rub some of it slightly over the-edges of the sole where the stitches are, which will re pel the wet, and not in the least prevent the black-, iug from having the usual effect. . HOW TO CLEAN BOOTS AND SHOES IN THE . WINTER. ' When the boots of shoes are covered with dirt, take them off, and with the back of a case-knife, or a piece of wood cut thin at the edges like a stationer’s paper knife, scrape the dirt off with the same as clean as possible, which will be very; easily done while the'boots and shoes are wet. Then with a small piece of wet sponge or flannel, wipe off the remaining dirt whieh the pressure of the knife cannot effect. Then place them in a dry room, or at a convenient distance from the fire, for a few hours, and they will take the black ing remarkably well, and bear as fine a polish as they did before wetting. If proper attention is paid to this process, the fingers will scarcely be soiled, and mueh trouble will be saved by the'ex tra brushing required when the dirt is suffered to dry on. IS EMANCIPATION CONSTITUTIONAL? In the Yirginia Convention which ratified the Constitution, Patrick Henry opposed the ratifica tion on the ground that it gave Congress the power, under certain circumstances to abolish slavery. He said: “ One of the great objects of Government is the national defence. The Constitution gives power to the General Government to provide for the general defence, and the means must be commen surate to the end. All the means in the possess ion of the people must be given to the Govern ment which is intrusted with the public defence. May Congress not say every black man must fight? In the war of the Revolution, Virginia passed an act of Assembly that every slave who would join the army should be free. At some future time, Congress will search the Constitution to see if they have not the power of manumission. And have they not, sir? Have they not the power to provide for the general defence and wel fare? May they not think that these call for the abolition of slavery? May they not pronounce all slaves free? and will they not be warranted by that power? The paper speaks to the point; they have the power in clear, unequivocal terms, and will clearly and certainly exercise it.” WATCH THE HEALTH OF YOUR CHIL- DKEN. Worms are a prolific source of sickness in ' They are seldom free from them, and by their irrt all other diseases are aggravated. Convulsions, as as St- Titus’ Dance, have been superinduced by tnem, and death has resulted in extreme cases. Whenever tn symptoms are observed, such as disturbed sleep, grinding of the teeth, itching of the nose, weakness of the bowels, slow fever, "variable appetite and fetid breath, JAYNE’S TONIC VERMIFUGE should be resorted to without delay. It is entirely harmless, is readily taken by children, effectually de stroys worms, and by its tonic action invigorates the whole system. It is prepared only by Dr. D. Jayne « Son, 242 Chestnut St., Philadelphia. COUGHS, COLDS, CONSUMPTION, Asthma, Bronchitis, &0., JAYNE'S EXPECTORANT ‘ been for thirty years the Standard "Remedy* - will be admitted that no better evidence of the great urative powers of this EXPECTORANT can be offered /ban.the grateful testimony of those who have been re stored to health by its use, and the wide-spread popu larity which, for so long a period, it has maintained in the face of all competition, and which has created a con stantly increased demand for it in all parts of the world. As far as possible, this evidence is laid before the public from time to time, until the most skeptical will ac knowledge that for all pulmonary complaints, it is truly an invaluable remedy. RECENT COUGHS AND COEDS, PLEURITIC PAINS, &c., are quickly and effectually cured by its dia phoretic, soothing and expectorant power. ASTHMA it always cures. It overcomes the spasmo dic contraction of the air vessels, and by producing free expectoration, at once removes all difficulty of breathing. BRONCHITIS readily yields to the Expectorant. It subdues the inflammation .which extends through the wind tubes, produces free expectoration, and suppresses at once the cough and pain. CONSUMPTION.—For this insidious and fatal disease, no remedy on earth has ever been found so effectual. iCsbbdiies the inflammation,—relieves the cough""and pain,—removes the difficulty of breathing and produces an easy expectoration, whereby all irritating and ob structing matters are removed from the lungs. WHOOPING COUGH is promptly relieved by this Ex pectorant. It shortens the duration of the disease one half, and greatly mitigates the suffering of the patient. In all PULMONARY COMPLAINTS, in CROUP, PLEURISY, &c., it will be found to be prompt, safe, pleasant and reliable, and may be especially commended to Ministers, 'Teachers and Singers, for the relief of Hoarseness, and,for strengthening the organs of the voice. Bead the Following Statement: REV. RUFUS BABCOCK, D. D., Secretary of the American and Foreign Bible Society, writes: — “ Having given Dr. D. Jayne’s medicines a trial in my nwn family, and some of them personally, I do not hern iate to commend them as a valuable addition to our materia medico. The EXPECTORANT especially I con sider of inestimable value, and I know that it is highly esteemed, andfrequeutly prescribed by some of the most respectable of the regular practitioners of medicine.” Rev. B. V. R. James, Missfenary in Liberia of the Pres. Board ,of Foreign Missions, writes:— “Your EXPECTORANT has been administered with the most happy results, and I feel assured I never used an article, of .medicine that produced a more sure and certain relief for the complaints for which it is recoin- _ mended.” - Rev. John Dowiang, D. D„ Pastor of the Berean Bap tist Church, N. Y., writes:— “I have long known the virtues of your EXPECTO RANT, and frequently tested them dn myself and family, when afflicted with coughs or coins. I believe it to he one of the best remedies ever discovered for these mala dies.” (, Rev. N. M. Jones, Rector of Church of St. Bartholo mew, (Prot. Epis.,) Philada., writes; — “In all cases resembling Consumption, I recommend your EXPECTORANT, having in so many cases wit nessed its beneficial effects.” Rev. J. j. Walsh, Missionary of the Presbyterian Board at Futtegiirli, Northern India, writes “ Your EXPECTORANT was the means, under Provi dence, of curing a case of incipient consumption, which had been pronounced incurable by competent medical men.” Rev. Jonathan Going, D. D., while President of Granville College, Ohio, wrote:— “While laboring under a severe,Cold, Cough, and Hoarseness, niy difficulty of'breathing became so great that I felt in imminent danger of suffocation, but was perfectly cured dn using Dr. D. Jayne’s BXPECTO •RANT.” Miss Mart Bali, of the Protestant Episcopal Mission, Cape Palmas, West Africa, says tt i n our missionfamilies your medicines are a general specific, and among tfie sick poor they enabled me to do. ..much. good. Yonr EXPECTORANT has proved of g l ****" ***'• 1 ■ that also of Rev. Mr, Green, two ev. C. L. Fisher, formerly pastor of the Dell Prai rie Wis. Baptist Church, writes “ A little daughter of mine, aged seven years, had been afflicted for some time with Asthma and Palpita tion of the heart, and having tried various remedies without relief. X was persuaded to get your EXPEC TORANT and SANATIVE PILLS, and after using them she was restored to a good degree of health.” REV. SAMUEL S. DAT, Missionary of the Baptist Board, at Neilore, India, w: ites:— “By the use of your ExfectOhakt my Cough and Sore Throat are now well. I find, occasionally, an un- Sleasant sensation in my throat, as if mucus had lodged lere, but your Expectorant usually relieves it by two or three applications.” REV. J. R. COFFMAN, of Winfield, Tuscarawas co., Ohio, writes; — “One bottle of Jayne’s Expectorant, cured my daughter of Lono Fever, after having been beyond the hope of recovery. During.the attack she had a number of convulsions. She is now perfectly well.” This Expectorant, and all of Jayne’s Family Medi cines, are prepared only by Dr. D. JAYNE & SON, 242 Chestnut street, and may be had of agents throughout the country. DISEASES 03? THE SKIN. THOUGH THE remote or primary causes of SKIN DISEASE may be various, as IMPURITY OF THE BLOOD, LIVER COMPLAINT, SCROFULA, &e.,&c., yet the immediate, cause is always the same, and that is an obstruction in the pores of the skin, by which the perspiration, in its passage from the body, is arrested and confined in and under the skin, causing an 1 intolerable itching, or an eruption of Pimples, Pustules, Ringworm, Tetter, Salt Rheum, &c«* &e* For all these affections. JAYNE’S ALTERATIVE has been found an invaluable remedy, as it removes both the primary as well as the immediate causes—purifying the Blood, curing the Liver Complaint, and effectually eradicating Scrofula from the system, while, at the same time, it frees the pores of their obstructing matters, and heals the diseased surface.
