The fight between Secession and Union was begun, The South declared she’d have her rights, which Uncle Sam denied, Or in their Secesh wagon they’d-ull take a ride. Chords Hurrah for the wagon, the old Union wagon, We’ll stick to our wagon and all take a ride. The makers of our wagon were men of solid wit, They made it out of Charter o§k tlmt'would not rot or split. Its Wheels ar» of material the strongest and the best, Anti two are named the North and South, and two the ■. East and West. Our wagon-bed is strong enough: for any Revolution, It fact, ’tis the hull of the old Constitution. *.4er coupling's strong, her axle's long, no matter where you get her, No monarch's frown can back her down, no traitor can upset her. x This good old Union wagon the nation all admired; Her wheels has run for four score yearn and never once been tired. Her passengers were happy, os along her Iwuy she whirled, And the good old Union wagon was the glory of the world. But when old Abram took command, the South wheel got displeased, Because the public fat was gone that kept her axle greased. When she gathered up the ruins and started on her route, She plunged into Secession and knocked some follows pul. Now while iu this secession mire the wheels were sticking lightly, Some tory passengers got out ami cursed the driver slightly, But Abram couldn't see it, so he didn't mind their clatter, There’s too muck Black mud ou the wheel, says he, “that’s what's the matter.” So Abram gave them notice that in eigbteen-sixty-ihree Unless the rebels dried it up he’d »e* their niggers free. And then the uutu that led the van to fight against his nation, Would drop his gun aud home he’d run, to fight against starvation. When Abram said he’d free the slaves that furnished their supplies. He opened Southern traitor’s mouths, and northern trai tor’s eyes, The slaves said they would rnu away if you thus rashly tree them, But Abram guessed, perhaps they’d best go home and oversee them. r Around the Uniou wagon with our shoulders to the wheel, A million soldiers rally with hearts as true as steel. And all the (generals, high or low, that helped to save the uatiou, There's none that strikes a harder blow than General Emancipation. ■Jtelijrt-. llpMrttatig. FATHER AND SON. One evening in the Month of March, 1798 —that dark time in Ireland's annals whose memory is still preserved among us as “ the year of the rebellion” a lady and gentleman were seated near a blazing fire in the old fashioned dining room of a large, lonely mansion; They had just dined; wine and fruit were on the table, lioth untouched; while Mr. Hewson and his wife sat silently gazing, at the fire, whatching its* flickering light becoming gradually more vivid as the short spring twilight faded into darknes. At length the husband poured out a glass of wine, drank it off, and then broke silence by remarking — “ Well, well, Charlotte, these are awful times; there were ten men taken up to day for burning Cotter’s house at Knock ane; .and Tom Dycer says that every magistrate in the country is a marked man.” \ . Mrs. Hewson casta frighteDed glance to* wards the windows, which were opened nearly to the around, and gave a view of a wide, treehesprinkled lawn, through whose centre a long, straight evenue led to a high road. There was also, a foot path at either: side of the house, branch ing off through close thickets of trees, and reaching the road by a circuitous route. “Listen, James!” she .said, after a pause; what noise is that ?, • “ Nothing but the sighing of the wind among the trees. Come, wife, you must not give way to imaginary fears.” A But really I heard something like footsteps on the gravel walk, round the gable end, ; I wish—” A knock at the parlor door .nter rupted her, “Come in.” ALTOONA, PA., WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1863 The door opened, and Tim Gahan, Mr. Hewson’s confidential steward and right hand man, entered, followed by a fair haired, delicate looking boy of «ix years old, dressed in deep mourning. H. C. JJEXA, “Well Gabon, what do you want ?” “ I ask your honors’ pardon for distur bing you and the mistress ; but I thought it right to come and tell you the hud news I heard.” “Something about the rebels, 1 sup- pose 1 ?” “ Yes, sir ; I got a whisper just now that there’s going to he a great raising to morrow ; thousands are to gather before daybreak at Kilcrean hog, where I ni told they’ve a power of pikes hiding; and then they’re to march on and sack every house in the country. I’ll engage, when I heard it, I didn’t let grtfss grow under my feet, but came offstraighttoyour honor, think ingmay be you’d like to walkover this fine evening to Mr. Warren’s, and settle with him what’s to be done.” 10 00 “Oh! James, I beseech you, don’t think of going.” “ Make your mind easy, Charlotte; I don’t intend it; not that I suppose that there would be much risk ; but, all things considered, I think I’m just as comforta ble at home.” The steward's brow darkened as he glanced nervously towards the end win dow, which, jutting out in the gable, formed ti deep angle in the'outer wall. “Of course, ’tis just as your honor pleases, but I’ll warrentyou there would bo no harm ingoing. Come Billy,” he added, addressing the child, who by this time was standing close to Mrs. Hewson, “make your bow, and bid good night to master and mistress.” “ You need not go home for half an hour Gahan ; stay and have a chat with the! servants in the kitchen, and leave lit tle Billy with me—and with the apples and nuts,” she added, smiling, as she filled the; child’s hands with fruit. “ Thank you, ma’am,” said the stew ard, hastily, “ I can’t stop —I’m in a bury home, where I wanted to leave this brat to-night; but he would follow me. Come, Billy ; come this minute you young rogue.” {still the child looked reluctant, and Mr. Hewson said, peremptorily— “ Don’t go yet Gahan ; I want to speak to you by-and-by; and you know the mistress always likes to pet little Billy.” . Without replying the steward left the room, and the next moment his hasty footsteps resounded through the long flag ged passage that led to the office. .; ■ “There’s something strange about Gahan since his wife died;” remarked Mrs. Hew son.'. “I suppose ’tis grief for her that makes him look so darkly, and seemsalmost jealous when any one speaks to his child. Poor little Billy ! your mother was a sore loss to you.” The child’s blue eyes filled with tears, and pressing closer to the lady’s side, he said—■ “Old Peggy doesn’t wash and dress me as nicely as mammy usecT” “ But your father is good to you.” “ Oh! yes, ma’am: but he’s out all day buisy, and I’ve no one to talk to me as mammy used ; for Peggy is quite deaf, and besides she’s always buisy with the pigs and chickens.” “ I wish 1 had you, Billy, to take care of and to teach you for your poor mother’s sake.” “ And so you may, Charlotte,” said her husband. “ I’m sure that Gahan, with all his odd ways, is too sensible a' fellow not to know how much it would be for his-child’s benefit to be brought up and educated by us in this lonely house.— I’ll speaktjju him about it before he goes home. Billy my tine fellow,- come here,” ho continued, “jump up on my knee, and tell me it you’d like to live here always arid learn to read and write." ! “ 1 would, sir ; if I could be with father too.” “So you shall; and what about old Peggy.” “ 1 like to give her a penn’orth of snuff and a piece of tobacco every week, for she said, the other day, that that would iriqke hgr quite happy.” Mr. Hewson laughed, and Billy prat tled on, still seated on his knee ; when a noise of footsteps an the ground, min gled with low suppressed talking, was heard outside. “ James, listen! there’s the noise again.” It was nearly dark, but Mr. Hewson, still holding the boy in his arms, talked towards the window and looked out. “ I can see nothing,” he said. Stay, there are figuers moving among the trees, and a man riming round to the back of the house,very much like Gahanhe is, too.” Seizing the bell rope, he rang it loudly, and said to the servant who answered his Sitfnmons— i “ Fasten the shutters and put up the bars, Connell: and then tell Gahan 1 want to see him. ■ The man obeyed ; candles were brought and Gahan entered the room. • Mr. Hewson remarked that, though his cheeks were flushed, his lips were very white, and his bold dark eyes wer o, sir, no- The boy Saved your life; you can’Make bis.” “ You’re raving, Gahan,” “ Listen to me, sir, and you won't say so. You remember this, night-twenty years? I came here I with- my motherless child, and yourself and the mistress pitied us, and spoke loving words to him. Well for us all you did so! That night —little you thought itl I was banded with them that were sworn to take ypur - life. . They were watching you outside die window, and I was sent to inveigle you out, that they might shoot you. A faint heart 1 had for the bloody business, for you were ever and always a good master to me: but I was Under an oath to them that I darn’t break, supposing they ordered me to shoot my own, mother. ; WellJ the hand of God was over you, and you wouldn’t come with me. I ran out to them, and 1 said, “Boys, if you want to shoot him, you must do it through- the window, thinking' they’d be afeard of that; but they weren’t—they were daring fellows, and one of them, sheltered by the angle of the window, took ’ deadly aim at you.- That very moment you took Billy on your knee, and I saw his fair bead in a line with the musket. I don’t know exactly then what I said or did, but I remember I caught the man’s hand; tjirew it up,, and pointed to the child.' Knowing I was a determined man, I .believe they didn t wish to provoke me ; so they watched you tor a while, and when you ; didn’t .put him down, they got daunted, bearing thesound of soldiers riding by the road, and they stole away through the grove. Most of that gang swung on the gallows, but the last of them died this morning quietly in his bed-; Up to yesterday he used to make me give; him money—sums of money to buy his silence—and it ‘ was for that I made mV boy a thief. It was wearing out his’very life. Often he went down on his knees to me, and said, “Father, i d die myself sooner than; rob my master, but 1 can’t sse you disgraced. Oh 1 let us fly the country.” Now, eir, I have- told yon all. Do what you like With me.— Send me to jail, I deserve it; but spare my poor, deluded, innocent boy!” . It would be difficult to describe Mr. HeWson’s feedings, but hi? wiftf s first im pulse was to hasten toliberate the prisoner. J With a few incoherent words of explana-! tion, rim led him Into the presence of hir msaterp who, looking aimm but kindly, said—“ William* EDITORS AND PBOPKEETSB : erred deeply, but not so deeply as 1 sup-: posed; Your &ther hastold me everything. I forgive him freely, and yon also." i The young man covered his face with; his hands, andwept tears more bitter and' abundant thaa.be had ever shed since tlsej day he followed his mother to the grave. ' He could say little, but he knelt on the 1 ground, and clasping the kind hand bf her’ who had supplied to him that mother’s place he murmured — “ Will you tell him I would rather die; than tin again V’ Old Gafaen died two years afterwards truly penitent, invoking blessings on his son and on his benefactors; and the young marts conduct, now no longer un-: der evil influence, was so study and 1 so up right that his adopted parents felt their pious work was rewarded, and that ini William Gahan they bad indeed a son.

The Colonel self-confident of success, arrayed himself in his best suit, ans pror ceeded to call on the “parent” fair the purpose of obtaining his consent to the consummation he so devoutly wishetf. Matters had all along gone smoothly.— Colonel Nash had every ground foil suc cess, finally a convenient : season arrived; for him to opproach the old ’tin. Says the Colonel:—' “JSquirej my business to-day is to ask ’or your daughter’s hand ” “It is, is it t What marry my gal f Look here, young man leave my premises instanter, and if you ever set foot' here again, I’ll make my niggers., skin you. — Many my daughter, indeed!

After getting oft to a safe he thought he would turn and take a last fond look at the home of his lost idol,' when he spied, the old man busy with spade in hand shoveling up Jhia tracks ftom the yard and throwing them over the fence. Col. Nash imagined lie was an unwelcome visitor at that house. Life’s Happiest Pkbiqd.—Kingsley gives his this disputed point. He thus declares: ! “There is no plearsure that x have ex r perienced like a child’s midsummer holiday —the time, I mean, when two or three of us used to go away np the brook, apd take odr dinners with us, come home at night , tired, dirty, happy, scratched beyond rer cognition, with a greasy nosegay, threp little trout, and on! shoe; the other having been used for a boat, till It had gone do wp with ail bagds put of soundipgs.
