BARBARA yartmcare.
BY ;WIN G. WRITTIZIZ.
Up from the; meaclowa rich with corn,
Clear in, the cool September morn,
The clustered 'spires of Frederick stand
Green nitlled by the hills of Maryland.
Round about :them orchards sweep,
Appte and.peach trees fruitid deep,
Fair as a garden of the Lord-
To 'the eyes of the famieh'd rebel horde
On 'that I . :pleasant morn , of the early 'fall,
When Lee marched Over the mountain-wall,
Over the mountains winding down,
‘*.oree and foot, into Frederick-town
rortY flags with . their eilver stars,
Forty flags with' their crimson bars,
Flapped in the morning wind; the eun
Of noon looked dc;wn, and saw not one.
Up rose old Barbara Frietohie then,
Bowed with her fourscore years and ten;.
Bravest of all in Frederick town,
She took up the flag the men hauled down.;
Inter attic window the staff site set,
To ahow that one heart was loyal yet
Up the street came the rebel tread,
Stonewall Jackson riding ahead.
Under hie slouch hat left and right
He glanced; the old flag'met his'aight
'.l:lgtltl l ?—the : ditst r brown ranks stood fast,
"Fite 1"-out. blued the rifle blast,
It shivered the window, pane and sash ;
It rent the banner with seam and gash.
Quick as. it fell from the broken staff,
Thane Barbara snatched the silken scarf ;
She leaned far out of the window eill,
And shook it forth with a loyal will.
!'Shoot, if you must, this gray obi bend,
But spare your Country's flag," she said
A ,
shade of amasses, a blush of shame,
Overthe face of the Isaacs came;
Tho nobler nature within him stirred
To life by that woman's deed and word!
"Who touches a hair of yon gray head
Dies like a - dog 1 March on l" he said:
AU day long through Frederick street;
Sounded the tread of marching feet;
AU daylong that free flag tossed
Over the heade of the rebel hog.
Eier its torn folds rose and fell
On the loyal Winds that loved it well;
And throtigla the, bill gaps sunset light
Shone over it with a warm good-night.
Berbera.Frietobie's work.is o'er,
Ar..d the rebel rides on.his raids no more
Honer to her!"and let a tear
Fidl, for her'sake, on Stonewall's bier
Over Berbera Frietehie's grave,
Flag of Freedom and Union wave!
'Peace and order and biauty draw •
Round thy symbol of light and law ;
And ever the stare above look down,
On thy etare below et Frederick town I

The pretended resignation of the
South under their recent reverses is
thus capitally taken off by Orpheus C.
Kerr,. in,the Keiv York Leader. The,
conservative Kentucky

,brings,
upon the. scene Captain Hunchausen,
who is met by Captain'Bob Shorty:`
Bight behind him (the conservative
Kentucky chap) came a remarkable.
being, attired in fragments, of grey
cloth and a prodigious thicket of
whiskers, through the latter of which
his oyes glaied yollowlylike the bot

.street;, ,he approached nearer ho
'hastily put .on. a pair of partially-dis
sected-White Cotton gloves, and casual
rearranged the strip of carpet bind

cravat. .
•'Yours; truly,' said Capt Bob Shorty
'Vandal l' hissed Qapt, lifunchausen,
emoving fr,oni: his brow an uneiatn.

2ast stages. of cap, and handing it to a
traithfnl contraband who attended him.
'Why, then,' said Capt. Bob Shorty,
doffing his own cap, and tucking up
his sleeves, "in tbeparne of the United.
States of America, I propose to move
upon your ivorks immediately.'
And now, my boy, do I particularly
lament my leek of those unspeakable
intellectual gifts, which enable the
more refined reporters of all our ex,
cellent and moral daily , journals to
describe the fistic achievements of the
Iloted Arkansas Mule and celebrated
Jersey Bantam in a manner that 49.
lights every well conducted breakfast
table in the laud, and furnishes exclgi
site TPR4ing fqr PriYate families.
Forward hopped Capt, Bub Shorty,
as though on springs; his elbows neat
ly squared, his, fists bold up like a
head
of apples on sticks, and hie head
poised as though it had justiltarted to

look round a corner: With fists to
match, and eyes shining like tlae bot
toms of glass - bottles, the Wary llfun
chausen scuffles cautiously back from
him in a half circle: Now they make
skips toward each other; and now
they skip back. Anon an arm is rais
ed, and is . parried; and' then they ha
lance to partners; arid then they hop
back.
I was gazing at all this, my boy, in
speechless admiration, when suddenly
I saw the dexter hand of Captain Bob
Shorty pierce the . enemy'4 lines, and
explode, with tremendousforce on Men
chausen's nose. :Fora moment there
was a sound as of Confederate blasphe
my; knit in a moment the chivalric
31Iunchausen was himself again.
'Ah, l' said Capt Bob Shorty, agreea
bly, 'did you see the Star Spangled
Banner that time 7'
'Sir,' said Ilanchattsen, yrithtears in
his eyis, 'I am thankful my :nose is
broken. It, is a blessing; for I had
nothing to smell with it, and only
wasted my strength in its special de
fenbe.' , _
Here Captain, Bob Shorty looked jo
vially at me, my boy, and says he :
'By 'all that's Federal i aint be jolly ?'
'Come on to thy ruin 1' roared Hun
chausen from behind his rapidly in
creasing nose; and again the , battle
raged. Now did Captain Bob Shorty
sidle to the left, with "a view to flank
ing , but: two columns of the enemy
met him there. Next the agile Man
chanson attempts; by a quiok turn, to
take him in tho rear of his position,
but finds a' strong body of five divis
ions hurled upon his headqUarters with
an impetuosity that, knocks out half
his teeth.
'Art satisfied, Heratio I' said Copt:
Bob Shorty, with more or less Bowery
theatre in his manner. An awful
smile appeared upon what were left of
the features of Captain Munchau.sen.
It was so full of scorn, you know.
'Sir,' said he, with much•chivalry of
bearing, and Fettle difficulty of utter
ance, may be broken, but I
thank fate for it.. it's a long time
since 1 had anything to eat with my
month,and to defend it atall was
'Ha I .ha;! ha l' - . roared Qaptain i Bob
Shorty; 'I reallY - never - did see ittiy
thing_sojolly:
'Madman!' yelled lilunchause n, 'your
destruction is decided
Then were all the skips and hops re
peated, my boy; with such ornamental
bits of occasional fine art as the refined
reporters of our excellent moral daily
journals love to - dwell fondly upon.—
Were I but such a reporter, I would
describe the scene in a way t) make
you take, it home to your children.—
But lot mo not waste time in !entente :
tion ; for just then, a something heavy
fell upon the right eye of Munchausen
and effectually closed it for a week.
'Ah I' said Captain Bob Shorty, plea
santly, 'did you count the stars upon
our Flag that time, my grayback ?' •
'Sir; retorted Munchausen,.stagger
lag about, and wildly iulling handfuls
of imperceptible hair out, of invisible
heads in the air—'l consider the loss•
of that eye a blessing in disguise; for
I can now concentrate my 'whole
strength on the other? .
'ell now, really,' said Captain Bob
Shorty, 'really, you know, I never see
anytiking half so jolly.'
'Extermination is now your doom
howled the Confederacy, reeling delib
erately forward - upon the first fist bp
met; and falling heavily to;the, ground
with his other oyo emphatically dark
ened. .
Instantly was Captain Bob Shorty
at his side, exclaitning : 'l'm sorry fOr
this, old chap. I wish yoa had con
sented to stop before. Eh ejaculated
Captain Bob Shorty, 'what's that you
say i'
As true as I live and breathe, my
boy, as true as I live and breathe,
when Captain Bob Shorty put his oar

Slavery Dead in Virginia.
Value of Property Destroyed by the
Rebels.
WAsurrterrox, April 11.—=-The• Rich.
mond Willy 'of Mondity;'the 10th inst.,
was received here to-day. It says :
"Whatever may be the fate of the
Constitutional Amendment, it is as
certain as sunrise that . slavery in Vir.
ginia is dead.
A National bank of the United States
is to be immediately established in
Richmond, where subscriptions to the
United States , bonds will bo received
'at the rates established in the 'North
ern cities. ,
The_aggregate value of the property
destroyed foots up $214,640. Impo
sing as these figuresippear they are
far short of the truth, for the reason
already stated, that real estate was,
before the war, invariably assessed
much below the value which it would
have commanded in the market. Our
list covers no more than the bricks and
mortar destroyed.
All the hospitals of Richmond have
been taken pOssession of by military
authority, and are used for ttio cOmfort
equally of the Federal and Confederate
sick. i '
A number of Confederate aurgeoris
left in the city have been paroled to
attend to ttie Confederate sick and
wounded.
The Chimborazo, Jackson and How
ard GroVe hospitals, four of the princi
pal Confederatc hospitals, are used for
the accomrnothition ofFederal wound
ed. They contain about 24,000 • beds,
which were left entirely vacant by the
Confederates. •
Rebel prisoners to the number of
800 or 1,000 bityl4l . boc : p received in the
city within the past forty-eight hours;
and consigned to the Libby prison.
:More than half of Pickea's division
have been captured and in,
brought_
and the country between Richmond
and Amelia county is said to belull of
Confederate soldlera, nearly all of than
Virginians, making their way to then
homes.
Castle Thunder is used as a recep
tacle for citizen prisoners,• of whom
quite a number are gathered there. •
Manchester was not at all disturbed
by pillagers on ,ktonday morning last,
neither did the fire. reach James dis
trict. - •
A •pontoon bridge spans the river
now and connects Richmond with
Manchester, and we hope, business, will
be revived and pervade both sections
The churches of all the religious de
nominations in'the city whose pastors
remained in the city were opened yes
terday, and services wore conducted
as usual, in the presence of large con
gregations, a good portion being coin
posed of the officers and soldiers of the
Union army of occupation.
In the Episcopal churches the regu
lar form‘of services was observed, with
the single exception of the prayer,
'which was made for all in authority,
instead of for the President of tiro
Confederate ,States, etc., as inserted in
the liturgy. As the United States is
the power in authority here, the pray
er for the President of the United
States was implied, if not said.
The sermons preached exhibited
generally a very high order of talent,
eminently practical and religious, and
we "are glad to knOw that the Union
soldiers, officers and privates, who
wore listeners, entertain a high opin
ion of the pulpit eloquenee of the cler
gymen of Richmond.
~
Saturday afternoon was rendered a
remarkable day in Richmond by the
first review and parade' of the United
States forces occupyibg the city. These
troops consisted of the 3d Division, of
the 24th Army Corps, Army of the
James, commanded by Maj. Gen. God
frey Weitzel.
In the absence of General Ord, the .
troops were underihe immediate com-
mand of
.I3rigadier General Charles
Devine. , -
The review was appointed for 2 is. .
M., on East Main street, the left of the
column resting on tho outskirts of the
city, and the right westward, to the
heart of the city. By the hour of noon
hundreds of our citizens, male and fe
male, had taken faVorable positions
from which a view of the military
npeetacle Could be obtained, and the
windows and doors for more than 'a
mile along Bain street lyerd crowded
With spectators who watched the man
oeu'vre's of the different regiments, bat.
teries and squadrons pa they appearecl,
wheeled into line, and took up their
position, until the line, as far as the
eye could see, shone, in the sun
tering hedge of bayonets,. • . .
Banners and hands intercepted the
,linos at intervals, and couriers wont

and came carrying orders and keeping
both wings in: communication. ,
• An hour beyond the time appointed
passed, and yet Brig. Gen. DoVins and
etaff,who reqs to , first review the troops,
had not made his appearance. Finally,
aiflourish of trumpets announced his
approach 'The General,' With a splen
didly *Minted and appearing' staff,
aPproached the linofrona tbc left, tho
mounted band on the extreme right
striking up, "flail to the Chief who in
triumph advanced."
During the,• performance of this air
General Dovins and staff rode down
the right, but Made a detour through
ibth and Carey streets, and rode "rap
,idly to the extreme left of the line, on
the outskirts. , ,
From this point the review was ac
complished; the• General and staff gal
loping kola left to right, the lino com
ing to a present Arms as he passed,
and, the band Striking
Gemoral Derins alone carried his hat
in his hand and this distinction caused
'hint to be easily reeogniZed 'by the cit
izens. At points on the line he was
heartily cheered by the troops..
Long accustomed as Confederate
eyes haie been to the once all perva
ding grey, We do, not believe that the
sudden substitution of blue as the pre•
veiling colorls distasteful' to many of
our citizens,lhouszads of whom lobk
ed on the military spectacle of Satur
day not as the. display of prowess on
the part of a triumphant foe, but as an
exhibition of military genius and re
sources of the Unitod States, which all
can.again contemplate with pride.
.
`,None of the colored troops appeared
on review, but a separate display of
them will peobably take place before
One feature, of the display was evi :

what: the citizens have been, accus
