In the hush of the winter midnight— In the hush of the sleeping house When no wierd wind stirs in the gloomy firs The spirits of storm to rouse. When never a glint of moonlight Gleams from a great black sky, By the red fire's glow, as it smoulders low. We crouch, my letters and I. My letters, they lie where I tossed them, On the crimson hearth-rug there, Si ill vivid and bright, in the ruddy light, As cobras in their lair. 1 push the hair from my forehead, That burns and throbs so fast, Thinking the while, with a strange dull smile, Of the task I must do at last. Who knows but I, the comfort Those foolish letters have been ? The depth and scope—the strength and hope— Of those "leaves" that are always "green ?" Who knows but I, how sadly, To-morrow, I and my dream, By the ashes gray will weep and say, "Woe's me for that vanished gleam." "The gleam of idle gladness, The glimmer of memories bright, That hid in each line of those letters of mine, Those letters I burn to-night?" Ah, well! the dream was a folly, Its joy was an idle thing, Its hope was a lie, and its loyalty Died of a whisper's sting. So a kiss—the last—to my letters, A resolute hand and—there ! Do the sad dark eyes of my Paradise Meet mine through the fierce flame's flare? Temple Bar. DEATH AT TIIE BREAKFAST TABLE. —Robert Bruce, a celebrated Scotch minister, sat at his breakfast table one morning. Having eaten a boild egg, he turned to his daughter and said: "1 think I am yet hungry, you may bring me another egg." He then grew thoughtful a moment, and, musing a little, added— "Hold, daughter, hold! my Master calleth me." Here his sight failed him, but calling for a Bible he requested his daughter to place his finger on Romans 9, 38, 39. This being done he repeated the verse, dwelling especially on "I am persuaded that neither life nor death shall be able to separate me from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus my Lord."— He then said: "God be with you, my children. I have breakfasted with you, and shall sup with my Lord Jesus this night." These were his last words, for, with out a shiver or a groan, he at once star ted on his flight to everlasting glory. Reader, .you breakfasted with your famly circle this morning. Suppose, like the good Mr. Bruce, you should die suddenly to day, with whom would you sup to-night? MEN AND WOMEN.— Men love things —as facts, possessions, and estates; and women, persons; and while a man re gards only abstr. ct scientific facts; a woman looks only at the person in whom they are embodied. Even in childhood the little girl loves an imita tion of humanity—her doll—and works for it; the boy gets a hobby horse or tools, and works with them. But the noblest quality wherewith nature has endowed woman for the good of the world is love—that love which seeks no sympathy and no return. The child is the object of love, kisses and watching, and answers them only by complaint and anger; and the feeble creature that requires the most repays the least. But the mother goes on; her love only grows stronger the greater the need and the unthankfulnessof its object; and while fathers prefer the strongest of their children, the mother feels more love for the feeble and garrulous. "THERE'S our Jeremiah,"said MR. s., "he went oft' to get his living by his wits." "Well, did he succeed ?" in quired his friend. "No," said the old man tapping his forehead, "he failed for want of capital. "IT IS a shame, husband, that I have to sit here mending your old clothes!" "Don't say a word about it wife; the least said, the sooner mended." BEDFORD, PA., FRIDAY MORNING, AUGUST 9, 1867. |From the La Crosse Democrat.] DESCRIPTION OF THE GAME OF BASE B A I.E. Eureka! Look at that brace of hands, once soft and pretty, now suffused with Egyptian blushes. Then look into those optics and tell us tales of sympa thy. And look at that Mount Tom on our right cheek-bone. Base ball! That is the row. It came about thus. Sedentary em ployment is too irksome for the sys tem. The Doctor said we needed ex ercise. Doctor knows. He told us to join base ballwe joined. Bought a book of instructions, and for five days studied it wisely, if not too well. Then we bought a sugar scoop cap, a red belt, a green shirt, yellow trousers, pumpkin colored shoes, a paper collar, and purple neck-tie, and, with a lot of other delegates, moved gently to the ground. There were two nines. These nines were antagonists. The ball is a pretty little drop of softness, the size of a goose egg, and five degrees harder than a brick. The two nines play against each other. It is a quiet game, much like chess, only a little more chase than chess. There was an umpire. His position is a hard one. He sits on a box, and yells "fowl." I took the bat. It is a murderous plaything, descended from Pocahontas to the head of John Smith. The man in front of me was a pitcher. He was a nice pitcher, but he sent the balls hot. The man behind was a pitcher. He caught it, too! The umpire said "play." It is the most radical play I know of, this base ball. Sawing cord wood is moonlight rambles beside base ball. So the pitch er sent a ball toward me. It looked pretty coming; so I let it come. Then he sent another. I hit it with the club, and hove it gently upward. Then I started to walk to the first base. The ball lit in the pitcher, or his hands, and somebody said he caught a fly. Alas, poor fly ! I walked leisurely toward the base. Another man took the bat I turned to see how he was making it, and a mule kicked me on the cheek. The man said it was the ball. It felt like a mule, and I reposed on thegrass. The ball went on ! Pretty soon there were two more flies, and three of us flew out. Then the other nine came in, and us nine went out. This was better. Just as I was standing on my dignity in the left field, a hot ball, as they called it, came sky rocketing toward me. My captain yell ed, "Take it!" I hastened gently forward to where the ball was aiming to descend. I have a good eye to measure distance, and saw at a glance where the aerolite was to light. T put up my hands. How sweetly the ball descended. Every body looked—l felt something warm'in my eye! 'Muffin!" yelled ninety fel lers. '"Muffin' be d d! It's a cannon ball!" For three days I've had two pounds of raw beef on that eye, and jet it paineth! Then I wanted to go home, but my gentle captain said "nay." So I nayed and stayed. Pretty soon it was my strike. "Brick to bat!" yelled the um pire. I vent, but not all serene, as was my wont. The pitcher sent in one hip high. I missed it. Hesent in another neck high. It struck me in the gullet. "Fowl," yelled the umpire. He sent in the ball again. This time I took it square and sent it down the right field, through a parlor window—a kerosene lamp, and rip up against the head of an infant who was quietly taking its—nap in his or its mother's arms.—Then I slung the bat and meandered forth to the first base. I heard high words and looked. When I slung the bat I had with it broken the jaw of the umpire, and was fined ten cents. The game went on. I liked it. It is so much fun to run from base to base just in time to be put out, or to chase a ball three-fourths of a mile down hill while all the spectators yell "muffin !" "go it!" "home run!" "go round again!" or "go round a dozen times!" Base ball is a sweet little game. When it came my turn to bat again, I noticed everybody moved back about ten rods! The new umpire retreated twelve rods. He was timid! The pitcher sent 'em in hot. Hot balls in time of war are good. But I don't like 'em too hot for urn. After a while I got a fair clip at it, and you bet it went, cutting the daisies down the right field. A fat man and his dog sat in the shade of an oak enjoying the game. The ball broke one leg of the dog, and landed like a runaway engine in the corporosity ol the fat man. He was taken home to die. Then I went on a double-quick to the field, and tried to stop a hot ball. It came toward me from the bat at the rate of nine miles a minute. I put up my hands, the ball went sweetly sing ing on its way with all the skin Irom my palms with it. More raw beef! That was an eventful chap who first invented base ball' It's such fun. I've played five games, and this is the glow, ing result: Twenty-seven dollars paid out or things. One bunged eye, badly bunged. One broken little finger. One bump on the head. Nineteen laine backs. A sore jaw. One thumb dislocated. Three sprained ankles. Five swelled legs. One dislocated shoulder, from trying to throw a ball a thousand yards. Two hands raw from trying to stop hot balls. A lump the size of a hornet's nest on my left hip, well back. A nose sweetly jammed, and five uniforms spoiled from rolling in the dirt at the bases. 1 have played two weeks, and don't think 1 like the game. There is not a square inch on, in, or under me but aches. I sleep nights dreaming of hot balls, "flys," "fouls ," and descending "sky rockets." I never worked so hard since Ruth stole wheat, and never was so lame since the burning of Lu ther. # But lam .proud of my proficiency in the game. It's fine exercise—a lit tle easier than being run through a threshing machine, and not much either. It's a nice game for a poet or orator—'twill make one sore beyond all accounts. I've looked over the scorer's book, and find that in two weeks I've broken seven bats, made one tally, broken one umpire's jaw, broken ten windows in adjoining houses, killed a baby, broke the leg of a dog, anil mortally injured the bread-basket of a spectator, knock ed five other players out of time by slinging my bat, and knocked the wa ter-fall from a school-marm who was standing twenty rods from the field, a quiet looker-on. I've used up fifteen bottles of arnica liniment, five bottles of lotion, half a raw beef, and am so full of pain that it seems as if my bones were but broken bats, and my legs the limbs of a dead horse-chesnut, instead of the once ele gant trotters of Bawlingly thine, "BRICK" POMEROY. P. S.—All the ladies in favor of "u -niversal suffering",are invited to join our club! B. P. A EOGAN COUNTY QUAKER SEES ♦•SUM IIIMiS." Some months ago, a quaker widower of this country, concluded to bless him self with a second wife, chose one ac corrtfngly from a very strong "manhood suffrage locality, and took her to his hqine for an helpmeet. Happy! Thrice happy Quaker! The golden hours on angel's wings flew o'er him and his dearie. Fact. And they used to sit together and read the Bellefontaine Republican of Sunday evenings, and under its soporific influence,doze and nod in their chairs, and dream bright dreams of niggerhood suffrage and the Rump Congress. "Visions 'tis rapture to recall." And sometimes in those dreams they would imagine that the word "white" was stricken from the Constitution, and start from their slum bers in ecstacies of joy. And thus the pensive autumn receded before the stern breath of winter, and anon the spring time came, "gentle Annie,"and with it hyacinths, and bird carols, and into the household of our Quaker— a NIGGER BABY, a baby with the icord lohite stricken out! That's so! that's what's the matter! Whether the Quaker thinks more of it, or not quite so much, as if it were of his own body, is not known at this writing. We have sent him the touching narra tive of Hill Flicker Snicker, by Brick Pomeroy, so that if he is disposed to be unhappy over his domestic arrange ments, he can sing, "datdam old Stone wall Jackson song, who's pin here since I'se been gone?" or, who's pin here before I came? as the case may be.— Let this little nigger be christened Jay. Q iay Campbell, and the eternal fitness of things, all round, will have been appropriately preserved. Roll on the ball! The negro wears the palm ! Bellefontaine Gazette. CAGED iris KEEPER.— The Milwau kee Wisconsin furnishes another in stance of the outwitting of a sane man by a crazy man. it says? Recently a Milwaukee police officer was detailed to take an insane man to an asylum. The man went along qui etly until the end of the journey was reached, and instead of being deliver ed to the officers of the asylum, very quietly delivered the astonished officer who before he had an opportunity for an explanation, found himself locked up in a cell, and was told that a straight jacket awaited him if he made any de monstrations, The insane man went away, having done his work in a very systematic manner, and was very soon after boasting of what he had done. The officer, as soon as he could get the manager of the asylum to listen to him made an explanation and sent for ah acquaintance, who very soon set mat ters to rights. Search was made for the insane man, and ho was found detail ing his exploits, and very soon taken care of. The officer thinks he will look a little sharper next time: FACTS ABOUT LIFE.— The total num ber of human beings on the earth is computed at 8,000,000,000, and they speak 3000 known tongues. The average duration of life is esti mated at 331 years. One fourth of those born die before they are 7 years old, and one half at the age of 17. Out of one hnndred persons only six reached the age of GO. Sixty persons die every minute. Tall people live longer than short ones. At a recent railroad celebration the following sentiment was given : "Our mothers the only faithful tenders who never misplaced a switch. VOL. 62.-—WHOLE No. 5,404. A TOITHISO P ASS VGF. How eloquently does Chateaubriand reply to the inquiry, "is there a God ?": "There is a God! The herbs of the valley, the cedars of the mountain bless Him ; thp insects sport in His beams; the elephant salutes Him with the ris ing orb of day; the tbunder proclaims Him in the Heavens; the ocean declares His immensity; man alone has said, 'there is no God!' Unite in thought at the same instant the most beautiful objects in nature; suppose that you see at once all the hours of the day and all the seasons of the year; a morning of spring and a morning of autumn; a night bespangled with stars and a night covered with clouds; meadows enamel ed with flowers and hoary with snow; fields gilded by tints of autumn ; then alone you will have a just conception of the universe. While you are gazing upon that sun which is plunging un der the vault of the West, another ob server admires him emerging from the gilded gates of the East. By what in conceivable magic does that aged star which is sinking fatigued and burning in the shade of the evening, re-appear at the same instant, fresh and humid with the rosy dews of morning! At every instant of the day the glorious orb is at once rising, resplendent at noon-day, and setting in the West; or rather our senses deceive us, and there i., properly speaking, no East, West, North or South in the world. Every thing reduces itself to a single point, from whence the King of Day sends fourth at once a triple light in one sub stance. The bright splendor is perhaps that which nature can present that is most beautiful, for while it gives us an idea of the perpetual magnificence and resistless power of God, it exhibits at the same time a shining image of the glorious Trinity." THRILLING ENCOUNTER.— We learn from the last Boonsboro' Odd Fellow, that Prof. J. Mitchell, known as the "South Mountain Wizard," had a thrilling adventure with a den of snakes on the 7th ult. The Professor was out gunning when hesuddenly came in eon tact with a snake, which heencountered, and was met by his snakeship in a de fiant manner. On the second attempt to injure his enemy, the Professor suc ceeded in dealing a mortal wound.— No sooner had he thus despatched the first than a second made his appearance, coming directly at him, with head e rect, above five feet from the ground, and his forked tongue extended to its fullest length. The Professor dis patched this one with a ball from his carbine. A third one instantly came to the rescue, and halted within a few feet of the Professor, who discharged his carbine, without effect, whereupon the monster (measuring about eleven feet) closed upon his adversary, and wound his slimy folds about his person. The Professor was at that moment staring death and the snake in the face, and it was considerable time before he could command the presence of mind to draw his hijnting knife, and sever the snake in two. After this was done, notcaring to continue the battle, he beat preci pitate retreat, leaving the snakes, which were advancing from all sides in count less numbers, to vent their spleen un molested, and mourn the loss of three of their number, wljo had met an un timely death. • Ax "Alabamian," in a Mobile pa per, who has been in Boston, thus hits oif the prohibitory law: "Boston seems to be growing worse every day in in tolerance. They won't allow a eiicus to have a horizontal bar, or a band of 'tumblers.' 'Trance mediums' are for bidden to practice because they call in theaid of spirits, 'Opticians' are watch ed, because it is said people get their glasses there. The London 'Punch' and'Wilkes'Spirits'are forbidden to be sold by the periodical dealers. Apothecaries are forbidden to sell liq uorice.—People are nut allowed to eat sour apples, and are liable to be arrest ed for being in high spirits. Children who complain of stomach ache are lock ed up for fear it might be shampaign. Men are arrested on suspicion of being distillers who are caught 'rectifying mistakes,' Hotels have had to take; 'rain omelets' and 'wine sauce' off their bills of fare. All bookstores selling histories containing an account of the 'Battle of Brandy wine' are closed at once. Dead people cannot be buried on a bier. Vessels are not to come in to a harbor, because they have to pass a bar in doing so; and sea captains are not allowed to make any 'port in storm' —if they do, they must tell where they got it. Enterprising men dare not show any public spirit;—and even poor washer-women can only dry two sheets at a time, as any one is liable to arrest who has 'three sheets in the wind.'" A LADY asked a gentleman the other day, why so many tall gentlemen were bachelors'? The reply was that they were obliged to lie crosswise in bed to keep their feet in, and that a wife would be in the way. AN active officer who recently arres ted a savage blow has since further dis tinguished himself stopping a flying re port and catching a violent cold. AN Irish absentee is said to have sent this comforting message to his steward:—"tell the tenants that no threats to shoot you will terrify me." A HUSBAND on being told the other evening that his wife had lost her tem per, said he was glad of it, for it was a very bad one. ABO LITI OVISTS. The word "Abolitionist" is derived from the transitive verb abolish , which : Webster defines as follows: "Abolish — i 1. To make void; toannul; to abrogate; applied chiefly and appropriately to es tablished laws, contracts , rites, customs, and institutions. 1. To destroy." Now let us see what our Abolitionists have abolished , desh oyed, annulled and 1 iade void: They have abolished liberty. They have abolished the Union. They have abolished the Constitution. They have abolished trial by jury. They have abolished the laws and the courts. They have abolished t6n States. They have abolished a Republican form of government. They have abolished the peace and fraternity of the country. They have abolished ail respect for a written Constitution, i They have abolished the saeredness of the church. They have abolished the freedom of speech. They have abolished the freedom of the press. They have abolished the freedom of opinion. They have abolished all that the late war was waged for. They have abolished all that our fore fathers fought for. They have abolished gold and silver. They have abolished equal rights to all. They have abolished equal taxation. They have abolished economy and honesty in the administration of the government. They have abolished low prices, cheap living, good times and the general pros perity. They have abolished the cotton crop, and the millions of gold resulting from our exports. They have abolished a million of lives. They have abolished from three to six thousand million of treasure. They have abolished our southern market. They have abolished our commerce upon the seas. They have abolished our indepen dence of Eastern manufactures and iron mongers. They have abolished representation as a corrollary of taxation. They have abolished the United States Senate. They have abolished the United States House of Representatives. They have abolished the United States. With such a record and such achiev ments only to boast of what more appro priate name could they bear than that of "Abolitionists?" A DOUBLE SATIRE.— The annexed has a sufficiently wide application to be appreciated by the married people of either sex: Traveling Husband. —Seene Ist. Room in hotel. Spittoons full of cigaf stumps. Bourbon \|Jiisky. Husband in a hurry to be off, writing home: DEAREST SUSIE. —My time is so oc cupied with business that 1 can hardly spare a moment to write to you. Oh, darling, how I miss you and the only thing that sus ains me during my ab sence is the thought t hat every moment thus spent is for the benefit of my d
