"THE CHILDREN OF THE BATTLE-FP&LD•" Some time since the Aineriean Presbyterian offered a prize for a poem on the death of Ser geant Hunsiston, who was killed at the battle of Gettysburg, and who was indentified by means of an ambrotype picture of his three little children which he was holding in his hand when found. Out of many poems sent in, the preference was given to the following, simple, sweet verses, written by James G.Clark, And since set to mnsic, which is published by Lee & Walker, in this city. Upon the field of Gettysburg The summer sun was high, When Freedom met her traitorous foe Beneath a Northern sky . : Among the heroes of the .North, Who swelled her grand array— Who rushed like mountain eagles, forth From happy homes away, There stood a man of humble fame, A sire of children, three, And gazed within a little frame, Their pleturedlorm to-see : And blame him not, if in the strife, He breathed a soldier's prayer— "o Father, shield the soldier's wife, And for the children care." Upon the field of Gettysburg When the morning shone again, The crimson cloud of battle burst In streams of fiery rain : Our legions quelled the awful flood Of shot and steel and shell, While banners, marked with ball and blood Around them rose and fell, And none more nobly won the name Of Champion of the. Free, Than he who pressed the little frame That held his children three : And none were braver in the strife Than he who breathed the prayer ; I " 0 I Father, shield the soldier's wife, And for his children care." Upon the field of Gettysburg The full moon slowly rose; She looked, and saw ten thousand brows, All pale in death's repose ; And down beside a silver stream, From other-forms away, Calm as a warrior in a dream, Our fallen comrade lay, Ms limbs were cold, his sightless eyes Were fixed upon the three Sweet stars that rose in memory's skies To light him o'er death's sea. Then honored be the soldier's life r And hallowed be his prayer -0 1 Father, shield the soldier'swife, And for his children care. lETTEIS Prom a Lady visiting Philadeli hia, du ring the Winter - of 1863; to her young friend in the Country. NO. I. PHILADELPHIA ; October. If it were not for my promise, clear Edith, I would decline the request you have made in your last letter ; but as I did say I would give you the benefit of my observations on city life, I shall try to keep my word. And let me say here, that if I had known the compre hensiveness (excuse that long word) of such a life, I should not have been pre sumptuous enough to make the attempt. However, I shall select a few prominent points, and restrict myself -to them. It is .a great transition from our quiet neighborhood to a large city, where the people seem to be always under excite ment. My journey was pleasant, and as I met with no adventures on the way, I found my book a very good companion, especially as my escort was one of those in whom the reflective faculties appeared to predominate. - My friends were at the " depot" wait ing to, welcome me; they at any rate --are not marked by the frigid reserve said to belong to the citizens of Phila delphia. My comfort Was the first con sideration, as they passed a quiet even ing, supposing it would be more agree able to me after traveling. The, following morning, while at the breakfast table, we discussed our plans for the future ; and they were not sur prised that I was obliged to devote two or three days to shopping. You- are aware that I postponed my purchases until I could make them where I could indulge my taste for delicate colors. This trite business of shopping I prefer doing for myself, or I might have ar rived entirely prepared to enjoy myself. For a few days my attention will be en grossed in the purchase of dresses, bon nets, etc., then with visits to milli ners and dressmakers, but when these details are arranged, I can then find time to chat with you. First, you will expect to hear some particulars as re gards my new home. I am but slightly acquainted with " Uncle James," so must defer my description of him. Yet I may say here, that he is a fine look ing man, with a countenance somewhat stern in expression, except when talking with his pet "Nellie," often relating amusing incidents that have come under his notice during the day. Harry is a frank manly boy about thirteen ; has dark hair and eyes, a perfect contrast to his fair haired sister. Aunt "Helen" has only these two children so that she can afford to devote some time to her niece, which is a pleasant prospect for .me. You will wish to know, just how I am placed, so I- will say, that Uncle's house is all that can be desired as re gards comfort and elegance. And Aunt is one of those housekeepers, whose agency is only visible in results. The daily supervision is so quietly performed that I rarely know anything about it: yet I try to observe, as it may be use ful to one who has not a decided talent in that line. The two children are my firm friends, we are. mutually pleased. I have already spoken to them of my home among the mountains, and ex pressed a hope that I may show them some of our pleasant walks, and help them to gather our beautiful wild flow ers, when they visit us next summer.. I fear my letters will be rather desul tory ; there will be so much to engage my attention that I shall probably •dis appoint your expectations. This much you know, whatever interests me most will be the topic of my letters, other things being incidental. I must confess I am a little curious as to the people I shall meet. I hope there will be some characters among them. Do not expect details regarding my visits to public places, those I must defer until my re turn, unless I meet with paintings or sculpture so beautiful that silence is im possible, to one who knows your " art tendencies." You will make some pro gress in your drawing 'before we meet, I wish you could have a good teacher, but you must wait until next Winter for such aid. I find that Aunt Helen has formed various plans for my •benefit, she is de termined to make the most •of my time• Aunt insists that one .of us must always pass the , winter. with her,.now that she is permanently located here. She re .grets that distance has been such a bar to intercourse, that we have been almost strangers to each other ; but now, the future holds out a promise of better things. I must close as I have an en - - gagement at twelve that is important. Give my love to the friends I have left, and believe that 'I feel almost lost in this "Babel" without you. Ido not intend to date my letters, I mention this now, that you may not think it is acci dental. Ever yours, HELEN. WEE DAVIE DEAD. BY NORMAN MACLEOD, ,D. It was a:beautiful morning in spring, with blue sky, living air, springing grass, and-singing birds ; but William Thor burn had not left his house, and the door was shut. Mrs. Fergusson trod the wooden stair that led to the flat above his with slow and cautious step; and as she met her boy running down whistling, she . said, "What d'ye mean, Jamie, wi'that noise ? DO ye no ken wee Davie is dead ? Ye should hae maim feeling, laddie !" The Corporal, whose door was half- Open, crept out, and in an under-breath beckoned Mrs. Fergusson to speak to him. "Do you know how they are ?" he asked, in a low voice. "No," she replied, shaking her head. "I sat up wi' Mrs. Thorburn half the night, and left Davie sleeping, and never thocht it would come to this. My heart is sair for them. But since it happened the door has been barred, and no one has been in. I somehow (Enna like to intrude, for, nae doot, they will be in an wafu' way aboot that bairn." " I don't wonder,—l don't wonder !" remarked the Corporal, meditatively ; "I did not believe I could feel as I do. I don't understand it. Here am I, who have seen men killed by my side ;—who have seen a few shots cut down almost half our company; and "Is it possible !" interposed Mrs. Fergusson. "It is certain," said the Corporal; " and I have charged at Pampeluna—it was there I was wounded—over dead and dying comrades, yet will you be lieve me ? I never shed a tear—never ; but there was something in that Captain —I mean the boy—" and the Corporal took out his snuff-box, and snuffed ve hemently. "And what a brave fellow his father is ! I never thought I could love a Radical; but he is not what you call a Radical; he is—l don't know what else, but he is a man—an out-and out man, every , inch of him, I'll say that. for him,—a man is William Thor burn! Have you not seen his wife ?" "No, poor body ! It was six o'clock when she ran up to me, no distracted either, but awfu' quiet like, and wakened me up, and just said, He's awa,' and then afore I could speak she ran doors the stairs, and steekit her door; and she has such a keen spirit; I dinna like to gang to bother her. I'm unto was for them." They both were silent, as if listening for some sound in William Thorburn's honse, but all was still as the grave. The first who entered it that morning wore old David Armstrong and his wife. They found Jeanie busy about her house, and William sitting on a chair, dressed better than usual, staring int) the fire. The curtains of the bed were up. It was covered with a pure white sheet, and something lay upon it which they recognised. Jeanie came forward and took the hand of father and mother, without a tear. __on...heK...face„ —and . said quietly, "come ben," as she gave her father a chair beside her husband, and led her mother into an inner rood, closing the PHILADELPHIA, T e BSDAY, APRIL 28, 1864. door. What was spoken there between them I know not. William rose 'to receive, old David, and remarked, in a 'careless manner, that " it was a fine spring day." David gave a warm squeeze to his hand, and sat down. Ile soon rose and went to the bed. William Wowed him, and took the cloth off the boy's face in silence. The face was unchanged, as in sleep. The flaxen curls seemed to have been carefully arranged, •For they es caped from under the w.te cap, and clustered like .golden wraths around the marble forehead and peks. Wil -1 liam covered up the face, a; \ cl. both re turned to their seats by lie fireside. i i . " I never lost ane since :y ain 'Wee . Davie dee'd, and yours, W . e, was dear to me as my ain, exclaimed :the old man, and then broke down, and sobbed like a, child. . William never .moved, though his grea; : ?Cliest . seemed to he 4, e; , but he seized the poker, and bega cto arrange the fire, and then was still ts before. That afternoon Dr. M' avin called, and manifested quiet, unolitrusive„'' but most touching sympathy .11 His very silence was eloquent affecti n. "With your:permission., . od friends," said Dr. M'Gavin, "I will •eacl. a .short psalm and offer up a short fra . yer before I g 0 .." He selected the 23 . His only remark, as he closed the Bible, was, " The good Shepherd has *en pleased to take this dear lamb ',e His fold, never' more to leave it."

"When Nathan, the.L6rd i s prophet, telt King David that his child i ust die," said the Elder, " yet neverthe.ess . David even then, when it seemed almost rebel lion, prayed to the Lord to t pare his -life, and I dinna doot that; his Father in. heaven was pleased wi' hii freedom and faith. He couldna but tak' kindly such confidence trae- his clistreised servant." "I am sure," said the Dr., , "we can not trust. Him too freely. But let us always remember, that when God re fuses what we ask, He gives us some thing else far better, yea, and does far more than we can ask or think. So it may be thus with regard to -your' : dear child. If He has taken.lainvaway, can you, for example, tell the good He has bestowed thereby on himself or others, or the evil and misery which He has thereby prevented ? Oh, how many parents would give 'worlds that their children had died in infancy?" "We are ignorant creatures !" ex claimed William. "And consider further,. Mrs. Thor burn;" said the Dr., "how the Apostle Paul prayed the Lord thrice . to have a thorn in the - flesh-a veiY, messenger from Satan—removed. But the Lord did not hear even Ms prayer in his way, but answered it, nevertheless, in another and better way, when he said, ' My grace is sufficient for thee, for my strength is perfected in weakness.' " "True, minister," said the Elder ; "nor did He ever, say,. ' Seek ye my face in vain.' " "And as regards your dear child, Mrs. Thorburn, " continued the Dr., touching her arm, and speaking with great ear nestness, "I believe sorrow's crown of sorrow to a Christian parent, and the heaviest he or she can enduie on earth, is that of seeing a child,'dearer than their own life, living and dying in wicked /less ! What was David's sorrow for his dead babe, when compared with that wail of bitter agony for his wicked son, Would God I had died. for thee, 0 Absalom, my son, my son !' God has saved you, from that agony. He has done so by taking your child to Himself.

And et—" "And yet," said Jeanie, as if inter preting the feeling-re'llin4a.nd, " wi' a' these blessed thochts about our wee bairn,. he's an awfa' blank ! Ilka thing in the world seems .different. "But minister, let me speir at you,sir:: Will I - never see my bairn again ? and if I see him will I no ken hiia?" "You might as well ask me whether you could see and know your child if he had gone to a foreign country instead of to heaven," replied the Dr. "Alas for Christian love, if we (lid not know our beloved friends in heaven I But such ignorance is not possible in that home of light and love." "But," continued Jeanie, with quiet earnestness, " will our bairn aye be .a bairn, Dr. ? Oh, I hope so I" "Dinner try, Jeanie dear," said David, " to be wise aboon what is written." The Dr. smiled, and asked,—" If your child had Eyed, think you, would you have rejoiced had he always contin ued to be a child and never grown or advanced ? and are you a loss or a gain to your father and mother, because you have grown in mind and knowledge since you were an infant ?" " I never thocht o' that either," said Jeanie, thoughtfully.. " Be assured," continued the minister, " there will be no such imperfect and in complete beings there as infants in intellect and in sense for ever. "Let me repeat .a verse or two to you, Thorburn, which I am sure you will like. They express the thoughts of a parent about his dead girl, which have already in"part' been poorly' expressed : ' She is not dead—the child of our affection— But gone unto that school Where she'no longer needeth our protection, And Christ himself doth rule. Not as a child shall we again behold her ; For when with raptures wild In our embraces we again enfold her, She will not be a child; But a fair maiden, in her Father's Mansion Clothed with celestial grace, And , beautiful with all the soul's expansion Shall we behold her face.'" e means of .Ilow I" add ' er, Janie, word, said, ".0 sir, God , : y bairn! py; Jeame, oftly , yet I mama get fring at my orgie me," A DUTY OF THE LOYAL WOMEN, A recent article in the Boston Zan script, copied into Littell's Living Age, upon the great and unseemly extrava gance of the women in this time of war, deserves to be widely circulated. After a paragraph, in which " the spectacle of extravagance, expense and ostentation exhibited in the attire of many of the ladies of the land," is contrasted with the scenes of bereavement and woe in the battlefield, the hospital and the homes .of the fallen soldiers, the article then .continues_: " said the at satisfac ' what God IlVord, and sorrow, . to ou- to ae h you; not . you ought t because does what s love,, and k o what is To cater to this unseasonable, appetite for show,—to enable the frivolous, the inconsiderate, and the self-seeking to go clad in silks and ermines,—our for eign importations are stimulated to an unhealthy and unparalleledxtent, and millsons in gold are needlegsly sent out of the country, at a time when all the sinews of war are wanted to help our success in the field, and to fortify the Government against that financial em barrassment which always eventually brings in its train political and military debility and demoralization. The pres ent immediate consequence is an enor mous rise in all the necessaries of life, distressing to the poor, and visiting with alarm and anxiety thousands of house holds. Material results still more per nicious are in all probability pending. But worse than any merely material damage or disaster is the lowering • of the tone of the public morals, the with- : drawing of the attention of the active -and enterprising from the urgent needs of the war to the poor ambitions which wealth enables them to gratify, and the introduction of a spirit of emulation; not, as to who shall do most to help save the country, but who shall get rich the fastest, and enable wife and daughter to make the most astounding display. Let it not be thought that we, would insinuate that the gentler sex are alone culpable for this state of things, or that we regard them exclusively as guilty of extravagance. But in their case we can see and measure the evil. It is on the outside, palpable, glaring, obvious. It meets us in the street, and flaunts itself even in the house of prayer. Its exam ple is constantly operating to aggravate the consequences that are flowing and must continue to flow, in ever-increasing volume, from the ants of that reckless ,folly which in time of war makes the luxurious importations of a people ex ceed threefold their exports. Probably there are twenty thousand women in our large cities who could, by the effect of their example, and by an organized combination in favor of an economical reform in respect ta dress, bring down the price of gold twenty per cent. within three months. The way is by organizing a grand Loyal Ladies' League, composed of women who, braving all ridicule and misconstruction, are willing to pledge themselves to main tain, while this war lasts, a decent eco nomy in their attire; to discourage the importation of those expensive foreign fabrics for dress and furniture, the use of which sends gold out of the country with no corresponding benefit to the people ;—to discountenance by all the means in their power that extravagance which grumbles at the calls for aid to sanitary commissions, recruiting funds, and sufferers from the war, but thinks little of brushing our sidewalks with its expensive silks, or of spending on a single dress an amount that would sup port for a whole year the family of a soldier slain in battle. The way is .simple and.feasible, calling for no other sacrifice than that of personal .vanity and- of that • feminine londness for:dress, to which, under proper circumstances and restraint, no serious objection would be made. ,ilutrtistments. - USEFUL AND VALUABLE . _.DISOOVERY iirtivoivs INSOLUBLE_`' CEMENT GRBAT Discovass le of more general _ practical utility than any invention now before the public.
