VIOLETS ON THE FIELD OF BATTLE,
A Tribune correspondent, in going over a
portion of the field, after the battle of the
Wilderness, saw a young soldier or the Union,
lying among heaps of slain rebels, himself
severely wounded, his feeble hands reaching
out for clusters of violets, which were growing
near.
Where the dead were lying thickest,
Where the ground was sodden wet,
Where the "grey" and "blue" were mingled,
Hands tight locked in conflict yet,
Where the blood, like summer rain,
Had been poured upon the plain ;
Where they rallied to the onset,
Where they charged with faces grim,
Where the iron-throated cannon,
Thundered out the battle-hymn,
Where the good old flag of stars,
Chased the base-born rebel bars.
When the dews of night had alien,
And the morning sun bad shone
Andthe frightened birds returning
Sang within the greenwood lone,
When pursuers and pursued,
All had left that field of blood :
One lay there—amid tho rebels,
Wrapped in faded, tattered blue,
43-rimed with smoke, and stained with crimson,
Torn by bullets, through and through,
►Faint and weak, and almostsone—
Must he dis there all alone?
'till` a bay, his clustering ringlets,
Stained and stiff with clotted gore,
'Curls, that mother was so proud of,
Long ago, before the war.
Ah! her heart is sad to-day,
For her darling for away.!
Cold left hand is pressing firmly ,
At the wound upon his side,
White right , hand is groping faintly,
For the flowers that, near him hide,
Violets! see the glad surprise,
Smiling iri his soft blue eyes.
Violets ! why they deck the homestead,
11,al ,t,be old place bright,and gay,
Violets f oh how mother loves them,
• Always looks for them in May-
'Don't they cluster thick and sweet ?
Round, the old oaks' gnarled feet!
Zack to that brave, heart come rushing,
Tender thOughts of home, sweet home,"
' ''veep the life a little longer
Till some guardian angel conic—
Save him—lest her fond heart break,
Who gave dais, for freedom's sake!
lielp is near. What! one of ours ?
Here amid the awful dead.,
Look! his.hand is full of flowers,
Lift him gently I life's not fled—
Carry him, oh ! tenderly,
Brave young soldier of the free!
Still the rolling thunder echoes,
'heath the fair. Virginia skies,
Still the bugle winds its music,
And the musket-shot replies,
Still on banded knee we crave,
Victory for the true and brave !

LETTERS
From a Lady visiting Philadelphia, du
ring the Winter of 1863, to her young
friend in the Country.
NO. IV.
DEAR EDITH :-I regret that my re
ply to your last letter has been so long
deferred. But when I have given you
some account of my engagements, you
will excuse me.
I have spent part of three days at the
4 Academy of Natural Sciences," an
institution of which this city may well
be proud. Although I have given so
large a share of my time to it, I have
scarcely turned a leaf in that folio of
knowledge. It is a place to make one
feel keenly their own ignorance. There
is. such a field to enter upon, so many
departments are comprised in that " Tern
tile of Science," that I felt bewildered at
first. Lhope, however, that lam enrich
ed by some new ideas on subjects to
which I`have devoted a part of my time
for the last three or four years. I wished.
'for_ you while profiting by the remarks
of .Mr. N--, whose friendship for:Uncle
James led him to &vote several morn
ings to my instruction. I had only met
this -gentleman once previous to our; visit
to.the-" Academy.' Aunt Helen :Went
with, us the first day ; after that other
4 3ngagemonts prevented, so that I had.
the best opportunity for asking questions 4,
in which practice you know me to be a
proficient. I-must say, that Mr. N—
displayed a commendable degree, of pa
tienoedn :giving information..
I have been favoured lately with a
pretty conclusive talk with Mr. B—,
and I think I promised in my last letter
to resume the subject, commenced in a
former letter. In our second conversa
tion I asked Mr. B— if he had
modified his views since we had discussed
the intellectual standard of the young
ladies of this favoured city. "Indeed,
I have not, Miss Evans I" was the prompt
reply. I remarked that in the last talk
we had, he had given me a pretty fair
sketch of the daily life of a fashionable
young 'lady. " The present system of
education, Miss Evans, helps to make the
young ladies of the present day selfish,
frivolous and uninteresting. They have
no just idea of the responsibility of their
position ; mental gifts, or wealth, being
viewed by them only as an additional
means of gratifying their tastes in vari
ous ways. Fond of excitement, they
live in a constant round of fashionable
amusements, neglecting all solid and ra
tional cultivation of their minds, leading
a surface life ; thinking only of the pre
sent hour. Then what deplorable results
follow from the principles and practice
of these worldly minded young people !
Material in all their aims and estimates,
they limit their ideas to the riarrow
range of this presentlife. They estimate
people by their clothing, their jewels,
their houses ; unless they represent pro
perty of a material kind, they are not
worthy of notice. To such young persons,
intellect or moral power is not worth
any consideration; so _inqi_lrjent are they
to such attractions, that when brought
into the society ofthose who possess these
qualities, they avoid exchanging remarks,
and are anxious to leave such dull, un
congenial beings. People who do not
talk of parties, or the fashions, know
nothing of their set."
"I was much impressed with Mr. B—'s
earnestness, but felt somewhat perplex
ed, as I could not defend the course that
he, described. He observed my, perplex
ity and said with some feeling : 'Remem
ber, Miss. Evans, tide is not a general
censure of the young-ladies in this city;
I speak only of a certain, class, those de
voted to a Sashionable life. They are
easily recognized by an accurate, observ
er, ancl . this state of things is in some
measure - the result of the culpable ne
glect of parent's. Children are not taught
to find their chief happiness at , home:
As a result,, they are not contented un
less they, can seek their amusements in
the gay world and live in constant ex
citement , Parental authority not always
supreme even in childhood, is almost
nugatory 'when these' young people begin
to act for, themselves. I appeal to you,
Miss Evans, (mentioning some families
that I know well,) if those households,
do not prove the:truth of my assertions."
I was obliged to admit; that as far as My'
observation went, it confirmed his state
ment.
I must tell you how much I love Nellie.
She has'been very kind, to me, and my
gravity does not deter her in her efforts
to secure me as a companion in her walks.
I have learned a great deal from the pet
of the household in our confidential talks.
Does it not appear strange' to you tha r t
such a blithe fairy -should
fancy me? What a solid - letter
I have written you, but it was by your
own request. My love to all my friends,
the reading circle to be included of
course.
M. E. M
Affectionately yours, HELEIT.
THE 'HIM OF IRIBM'EMIGEATION. ;,
A recent number of the _banner of
Ulster contains the ,following .extracts':
The _Roscommon; Messenger says
"Some idea may be formed of the num
bers leaving this Country from the fact
that since Monday last, the earliest ship
which Mr., Bligh, agent here for Tap
sCott's and Inman's line, could engage
passengers for were in the former for a
ship to leave on the ,20th inst., and in
the: latter for a steamer -on the 30th, so
the passages are now all taken nearly a
month in advance. A great number of
those are secured in America for friends
in Ireland. When we bear in mind that
one of. Tapscott's ships leaves Liverpool
every four days, and that two of the In
man's leave Cork each week, we can
better estimate the nUmbeeleaving this
country.' We are also told that each
month for the last four, the number seek
ing passages has been steadily on the
increase.'
The Londonderry Journal informs us
that, in addition the emigration by
steamer, the number of persons going
out to America from this port by sailing
vessels is really immense. The ships of
Messrs. W. M' Corkell & Co., and Messrs.
J., & J. Cooke are leaving almost every
other day, each vessel carrying as many
passengers as she can accommodate.
The Scotsman says,that on Friday the
screw steamer St. Andrew left the Tail
of the Bank for Portland and New York,
having over 400 passengers on board.
Of these only 120 were emigrants from
Scotland, 152 having arrived at Greenock
from
,Liverpool, and about 150 from
Londonderry, per that morning's steam
er. Those from Liverpool sere princi
pally foreigners, with a slight mixture of
Irish and English, while those from
Londonderry were almost entirely Irish.
A large number of the foreigners, :as well
as the Irish, expressed their intention
of joining the Federal army on arriving
at New York.
On Wednesday morning last, ' the
steamboat Laurel sailed from Sligo for
Glasgpw, having on board over one hun
dred Aigranti • and on the evening of
the same day ,the Sligo sailed for'Liver-
PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, MAY 26, 1864.
pool bringing about fifty emigrants en
route to America. On Friday night the
Shamrock sailed far Liverpool with more ,
than five hundred emigrants, chiefly from I
the County' Mayo, and many also from
the neighborhood of Grange and Clif
foney, in this county. It was truly
heartrending to witness the leave-taking
of the emigrants and their friends who
remain behind for the present. Six hun,
dred and fifty for one week, from one
port, in addition to the hundreds who
have gone before them from Sligo !
—Sligo Champion.
The tide of emigration still continues
to flow from this port. Every steamer
carries away large numbers of healthy,
active, blooming young women, who
comprise fully three-fourths of those
seeking a better home in the New World.
On Wednesday last nearly three hundred
sailed, and their appearance bespoke
that they belonged to the class which
we have been accustomed to look on as
" conafortable."--.Dunclak Xxaminer.
The number of persons leaving the coun
try is, perhaps, less than it was some weeks
ago, which may be accounted for by the
fact:that the shipping agents are unable to
forward passengers on application, the
number already booked with some lines
being more than can obtain berths for
the next fortnight.—Ballinastoe Star.
The numbers who have left by the
train this week amounted to over 650
emigrants-204 from this district, 60
from Claremorris, and the residue from
Ballyhapis.—Mayo Constitution.
An editorial in the same number of
the Banner of Ulster says
In these days of comparative prosper
ity, and when the masses of Ireland's
inhabitants are in a much better position
than they have ever been before, the
rapid.depopulation ofhe country appears
unaccountable to those who know little
of its inner history. Sixty years sago,
:the census of Ireland was five and a
quarter millions; in 1844 the numerical
strength of the people was eight, and a
quarter million and now, in` 1864, the
population is only ;
About five and a half
millions. From , 1847 to the present ;
the people of this country have been
spreadirig themseves over different parts
of the globe, but especially on - the Am
erican Continent and in the several
islands of Australia. Those whO sought
, mit ".locations.-fore themselves in , those
portions of the world have generally been
successful, and, to their honour be it
stated, they-hays not forgotten " the old
folks , at home ;" but, as soon- as they
foundmeans to do so, they have aided
in conveying their relatives to the lands
of hope, and thus vast numbers of peo
ple who otherwise could never have
transported theinselves to other climes
are at present on the fair, way of 'gaining
a respectable position for themselves on
the other side-the Atlantic, or beyond
. the Pacific. If .a correct picture were
drawn of the every-day existence of Cie
lowers ranks of the agriculturists in Ire
land—of the struggles and endurance to
which they are subjected--few persons
world feel astonised•that such immense
numbers fly to distanrcountries.
LIFE INS IItANOE AND TEI WAR.
Among the blessings which our rebel;
,
lions masters threw away, because more
than their s ' equal ''share of liberty was
not good enough for them, was a pretty
large interest in our northern mutual"
life insurance i ,companies, they having
none' of theirown. Our companies were
'no losers by this. On the other hand,
not a few of them profited by the 'forfei
ture of southern policies to an amount
far greater -than sufficient to cover the
`subsequent war risks of their 'members.
Still there were two questions which
caused some solicitude to the guardians
of these . institutions. First, whether
ttte contittance of the war would not
diminish their business; and second,:
whether it:would not • increase the mor
tality so as to impair their funds.: So
far as the twenty-five e.ompanies now
doing Inisiness in Massachusetts are
concerned, the year ending November'
1863, answered the first question, that
their business had experienced an in
of thirty-seven' per cent. in its
cash receipts, and thirty-two and a half
per cent. in the amount insured ;
that is, the amount of insurance has
increased from one hundred and
ninety-six millions of dollars to about
two hundred, and sixty millions, and
the usual revenue loin seven and a
half millions to ten, and a quarter mil
loins. It answered the second question
by showing the ratio of the number of
deaths to the lives insured scarcely a
shade higher than in any of the former
years in which we haVe noted it. In
some particular companies the losses by
deaths on war risks may have slightly
exceeded, the extra, war premiumS'receiv
ed, but in the aggregate the military ex
posure thus far has not impaired the
funds of the companies, nor has it pro
duced 'Such an effect on the aggregate
mortality as would have attracted par
ticular notice in time of peace. The
light mortality which has always char
a,cteried our Amercan life insurance
companies, has still prevailed. The'
policies terminated by death'have been
873, while by the 'combined experience
of the :English comPanies, they should
have been 1165. This evidence of safe
and successful operation in the midst of
a struggle which might be expected to
pa i ralize every institution looking beyond
the safety of the present, •shows what an
amount of reserved force there is 'in the,
loyal part of the iepublici And Ought to
teach traitors a lesson of despair in their
work of destruction—
