THE BAREFOOT BOY.
BY JNO. 0..
Blessings on thee, little man,
Barefoot boy, with cheek of tan I
With thy upturned pantaloons,
And thy merry whistled tunes—
With thy red lips, redder still
Kissed by strawberries on the hill—
With the sunshine on thy face,
Through thy torn brim'sjauntly grace;
From my heart I give thee joy,
I was once a barefoot boy.
Oh I for boyhood's painless play,
Sleep that wakes in laughing day,
Health that mocks'the doctor's rules,
Knowledge never learned at schools
Of the wild bee's morning chase,
Of the wild flower's time and place,
Flight of fowls and habitude
Of the tenants of the wood,
How the tortoise bears his shell,
How The woodchuck digs his cell,
And the ground mole sinks his well,
How the robin- feeds her young,
Hew the oriole's nest is hung ;
Where the whitest lilies blow,
Where the freshest berries grow,
Where the ground-out trails it's vine,
Where the wood-grhe clusters shine;
Of the black wasp's cunning way,
Mason of his walls of clay,
And the architectural plans
Of gray-hornet artizans I
For eschewing books and tasks,
Nature answers all he asks ;
Hand in hand with her be walks,
Face to face with her he talks,
Part and parcel of her joy—
Blessings on thee, barefoot boy I
Cheerily, then, my little man,
Live and laugh as boyhood can,
Though the flinty elopes bit; hard,
Stubble-spread the new•mown sward,
Every morn shall lead thee through
Fresh baptism of the dew;
Every evening from thy feet
Shall the cool wind kiss the heat;
And too soon those feet shall hide
In the prison cells of pride, -
Lose the freedom of the sod,
Like a colt for work be shod,
Made to trend the mills of toil,
Up and down in ceaseless moil—
Happy if thy track be found
Never on forbidden ground—
Happy if they sink not in
Quick and treacherous sands of sin.
Ali t that thee knew thy joy,
Ero it passes, barefoot boy
[For the Globe.]
The True Man.
I shall in this communication, in my
feeble efforts, try to delineate the char
acter of the true man of honor and in
tegrity. It is a plain one, and easily
understood. The man of integrity is.
ono who makes it his constant rule to
follow the road of duty, according as
the word of God and the voice of his
conscience point out to him. He is
not guided merely by affections, but
by a fixed principle of mind, which de
termines him to esteem nothing but
what — ts hOnorable and right; and-to
abhor that which is base, unmanly, un
principled, and immoral, dr unworthy
in moral conduct. We find him the
same at all times.—The same trusty
friend, the affeciionato relation, the
conscientious man of business; and tho
pious worshipper. Ho assumes no
borrowed appearance, nor seeks a
mask to cover himself—for his act:B
are no studied part; but is indeed
what he appears to ba—full of truth,
eager, and humanity. In all his*pur
suits he knows no path but the fair
and direct one, and would much rather .
fail of success than attain it by -re
proachful moans. He never shows us
a smiling countenance while ho modi
tates evil against us in his heart, nor
praises us among our fribfide and then
join in traducing us among our ene
mies. Nor do Wo ever find one part
of his character at variance with an .
other. In his manners ho is simple
and unaffected ; in all his proceedings
open and consistent. J. B. S.
Aughwick Creek, Sept. 20. 1805.
How Munn Is HE WOILTII ?—Of all
current questions this is the ono most
frequently asked. It is, in fact, the
great question of tho day. Nobody to
speak of inquiries, "Is ho honest?"—
"Is he patriotiB ?" Every body puts
the query, "What is he worth ?" Mo
ney is not , merely the commercial
standard of value, but too often thb
criterion of social position, and the
touchstone of character.

HUNTINGDON, PA., WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1865.
What Pennsylvania Did in the War.
When the war of the rebellion was
precipitated, the then authorities at
Washington calculated that sixty thou
sand men and three months would be
sufficient force and time - to crush the
plot of treason. It is not necessary
now to refer to the fact that this cal
culation of a force necessary to arrest
rebellion, was wofully wrong, and that
instead of requiring three months,
four years, four terrible, weary, bloody
and self sacrificing years were consum
ed in the struggle to restore the Union
to peace. But it is a curious fact that
one of the States of the Union has fur
nished almost five times as many men
to aid in crushing rebellion, as was at
first demanded of all the States, to ac.
complish that result. •
On inquiry in the office of the Adju
tant General, A. L. Russell, fur infor
mation relative to the full number of
men furnished by the State of Penn
sylvania, as recruits for the armies of
the republic, we were placed in pes
session of the following letter :
WAR DEPARTMENT,
PRO. MAR. GENERAL'S OFFICE,
Vaishiegton, D. 0., Sept. 2, 1865.
His EXcellency, A. G. Curtin; Govern
or of Pennsylvania
. have the honor to inform
you that the number of men furnished
by the State of Pennsylvania from
April 17, 1861, to April 20, 1865, is
three hundred and sixty one thousand
nine hundred and thirty nine (361,939)
without reference to periods of service,
which varied from three months to
three years.
Please acknowledge receipt.
. I have the honor to be, sir,
Very respectfully,
Your obedient servant.
JAMES B, FRY,
Provost Marshal General.
The number of men credited to
Pennsylvania, in the foregoing official
account, tallies so closely With the roc•
ords in the State Adjutant General'i
office that wo are willing to accept it
as correct. But there aro other official
records besides those kept at Washing
ton of men tarnished by Pennsylvania
to aid in crushing the rebellion, which
greatly-swell the . aggregate force We
sent into the field. These records
show, that for State defence and in re
sponse to the demands of sudden emer
gencies, Pennsylvania put into the
field at various times, a force of be
tween 86 and 90,000 men. On several
occasions wo had a cordon bayonets
stretched along the entire southern
border of the State. Then again, the
number of mon who were induced to
leaVi the -State for enlistment in other
States, was_. very largo. Tho border
counties of New. York along the entire
border line, were paying heavy bonn-
ties before the counties in this State
along the same lino, offered pecuniary
inducements for enlistments. The
same inducements Were offered to citi
zens of Pennsylvania by other border
States. An entire regiment was rais
vania for West Virginia. In New Jer
sey, for a time, enlistments wore large
ly discouraged by the copperhead lea
ders, so that loyal men in many of the
districts in that State, anxious to
fill up their quotas, were compelled to
find substitutes through the. influence
of heavy bounties offered to the people
of Pennsylvailia. Nor was it only the
States immediately on our border that
thus filled their quotas from among our
citizens. States on the Pacific coast'
did the same; in proof of which wo
need only refer to the fact that a full
regiment was recruited in the city of
Philadelphia, for the State of Califor
nia, a regiment afterwards commanded
by ono of the California United States
Senators. Ctirefully estimating the
men thus raised and enlisted in vari
ous localities, we put down the, aggre
gate number of troops thus furnished
by Pennsylvania at 25,000. Indeed so
great was this drain on our military
resources that the Legislature passed a
law sternly forbidding the enlistment
of men within the borders of the Stale
for service in the organizations of other
States, and districts emphatically de
clared that the families of those thus
leaving the Commonwealth, should not
ecoivo the benefits of the relief offered
to the families of soldiers in Pennsyl
vania organizations. Nor must we
forget the largo number of colored
troops that were enlisted in Pennsyl
vania for other States. At least 2500
colored troops wont into service in
other States, who wore taken out of
Pennsylvania. Taking these figures
as fair estimates wo have the following
Recapitulation of Troops Furnished by
the State of Pennsylvania,to Aid in
Restoring the National Authority in
the Repotted States :
Number of men regularly furn
ished and accounted for by
U. S. Provost Marshal, '361,P30
.
Number of men in the aggro-'
gate called at varipus times
to meet emergencies grow
ing out of the attempted ie.-
-PERSEVERE.-
vasion of the North. by the
rebel army of N. Virginia, 90,000
Number of men who left Perin-
Sylvania to enlist in other
States, •
Number of colored men who
left Pennsylvania to enlist in
the organizations of other
States, on account of there
being no opportunity for col
ored troops to enlist in this
State,
Aggregate number of troops
furnished by the 'State of
Pennsylvania to sustain the
National authority, 479,459
It will thus be seen that Pennsylva
nia furnished within a fraction of half
a million of men to fill up the armies of
the United States and sustain the Na
tional authority in the struggle -to
maintain Constitutional law.' Nor
must it be forgotten, in thistonnection,
that while fighting men ofthe Common
wealth wore thus engaged in doing
battle on the side of law and order,
and hundreds of thilisiksands were rally
ing to the National cause, the State au,
thorities were reducing hundreds of thous
ands of dollars of the State debt. 'What
other State in the Union is able,to ex
hibit a like record?. :It is not for us to
boast of these achievements in war
and peace. We do not desire to com
ment on such results, because in the
hour of the State's glory, we are con
tented with the calm satisfaction cre
ated by the contemplation of these fig
ures; • but surely there is something
due to the wisdom, the fortitude, the
financial ability and the patriotic de
votion of those who administered the .
affairs of the State of Pennsylvania
while our fellow-citizens wore thus ex
hibiting their ability in war and their
exhaustless resources in finance.—llar

FArrne r A few evenings ago, my
little daughter who had been spending
the afternoon at a neighbor's, started
with mo through the. darkness for
home. It was the first time that she
bad ever been out doors in the night,
and everything seemed new and
strange. "Pape, I._see lots df stars up
in heaven," said she. "Why, papa,
see how many houses have got lights
in the windows." As soon as her cu
riosity abated soinowhat, she began to
be troubled about tho way home. "I
Can't see our house, papa. I don't
know thiS'way; where are we going?"
she said anxiously. I replied, "I can
see the road, and if you keep hold of
my hand I will take care of you."
Then she said, as' if chiding and com
forting herself, ."Yes; you do know
the way, don't you, papa? You will
take taro of your little girl, cause you
love her; don't you, papa ?" After this
she only grasped my hand a little,
tighter,and trudged cheerfully onward,
wherever I led the way.
Ah ! said Ito myself, litilo ono, thou

because I could not see my way clear
to the eternal mansions. As if it were
not enough to know that God loves
me, to infer surely that 110 will guide

His presence in the darkness of trial
and sorrow. and then shall I walk on

"Father, I will that they also whom

which thou hest given me."
A CHAIR FOR PRESIDENT JOHNSON.—
Our readers will remember that Seth
Kinman, the California hunter, presen
ted an elk horn chair, of curious con
struction, to Abraham Lincoln. Mr.
Kinman has now constructed a chair,
to po presented to President Johnson
—a chair that surpasses all his provi.
ous efforts. It is made of two grizzly
bears, captured by himself.. But we
almost despair of giving anything like
an intelligent description of the artis
die. Suffice it to say that the four
legs, with the feet and claws in per
fection, arc those of a huge grizzly
bear, while the arms are the arms and
paws of another grizzly; the back and
sides are also ornamented with im
mense claws. The seat is soft and ex
ceedingly comfortable, but the great
"feature" of the "institution" is, that
by touching a cord, the head of a mon
-1 6trous grizzly boar, with °Vended 1 ,
jaws, will dart in front from under the
seat, snapping and gnashing its toot.
as natural its life.' It IS' wonderful in
design, wonderful in execution, and a
worthy souvenir from the hunter of
the Rocky Mountains to the Chief
Magistrate of the nation.—Montouf•

The Baffled Lawyer.
At a late sitting of the Court Assizes
a case was brought before the bona in
which, the principal witness for the
defence was a tanner, well known in
the surrounding country by the sobri
quet of "Crazy Pat,":
Upon Crazy PA being called, for his
evidence, the attorney for the prise
cation exerted to the utmost extent
his knowledge of legal chicanery in
the endeavor to force it into some in
consistency, upon which he might
build a point; but ho was excessively
Annoyed to find that Crazy Pat's
evi-
Luce was consistent throughout.

Perceiving that acute questioning
failed to answer his purpose, the dis
ciple of Coke and Blackstondbetook
himself to the often-times succeisful:re
source of lawyer 7 -ridicule:
"What did you say your name was?"
he inquired flipantly.

WOULDN'T MARRY A MECHANIC.--
A young man commenced visitir.g
young i - wornnu„ and n - pp - da - rod to „be
well pleased. One evening ho called'
when it waS . quite'lata, «hick led'the
girl to enquire where ho hadbeen.
"I had to work to-night," replied
the young man.
"Do you work for a living?" enquir
ed the astonished girl.
:My brother doesn't work bard; and
'I dislike a mechanic," and she turned
up her pretty nose. •
This is -the last time the Mechanic
visited the young lady. Now ho is at
wealthy man, and has-one of, the best
of women for a wife. The young lady
who disliked the name of mechanic is
now the wife of a miserable fool—a
regular vagrant about grO,gShops--:-
and she, poor miserable girl, is obliged
to support herself and her children. •

ter discard the wellfed pauper, with

pomposity, and take to your affections
the callous-handed, industrious, intel

bitterly repented the folly, who have
turned their backs to, honeSt industry.
A few years of bitter experience taught
them a serious lesson: In this country

Somei Arts of Beauty.
"Beauty is over that divine thing
the ancients painted it; and though it
may sometimes prove a fatal legacy to
an ill-trained, weak-minded girl - , yet
it is oftener a blessing than otherwise,
and mothers ought to strive by all
proper means to make their daughters
beautiful and engaging as well as vir
tuous and truthful- 7 and beauty can
be so greatly promoted, nay, it may
be almost-ereated, by watchful care
and knowledge.
Any child that has tolerable -feat
ures may, bo made pretty, if not beau
tiful, by proper food, fresh air, good
temper and education.
Beauty of expression is the most en
during and highest kind of beauty, and
the expressiOn of the countenance is
undoubtedly more to be Controlled and
improved by culture than in fairness
of complexion. • Every day we see
faces ugly and distorted by crossness,
anger, revenge and sensuality, which
were onco bright and lovely with the
innocence and smiles• of childhood.
What has changed them so greatly, if
not coarse food andload passions?
Every - cross, jealous, proud, scornful
feeling, like every blow of the chisel
upon marble, serves to carve a line
upon the fcatures, and each time such
feelings are indulged, the work of the
invisible carver is deepened, until the
face is made ugly by unkind and un
holy thoughts and passions.
In the same way kin d,pure thoughts,
gentleness of word and 'deed, leave
their impress, making bad complexions
and common features almost .radiant
with the beauty of goodness.'
Education;
Edneation, both intellectual ' and
•
moral, increase beauty; a counte
nance beaming with intelligence; mil
ted to a gentle winning manner, - will
always be thought lovely by 'sensible
people, if, it has no other charms, and
this beauty will endure through life. •
Any oho may prove the power of
education upon the features by noti
cing_ the_ ignorant, vicious children
Who are :sent' to a school of
Where they are properly fed arid in:•
structed. Day by day, as they receive
new ideas' of right and wrong and
think now thoughts, their eyes bright
en, their cheeks assnme a deeper color,
and the whole expression of the face
changes.
How noble are the faces of moStmen
known for theirculture and genius!
so noble, that in any crowd they would
be noticed and remarked upon, though
unknown. It is not that they are, in•
the common acceptation of the term,.
handsome men, but because• education i
and intelligence has wrought upon
their features till they are grand as ,
the sculptured faces of heroes and
demigods. If every mother and teacher
would but take the requisite • care in
the h sical an 6, .• •: . •
ance of the race might be vastly -im
proved
Let every guardian of youth then,
impress upon the young how they dis
figure their rues by ill temper, idle
ness and deceit, and beautify them by
kindness, truth and diligence in culti
vation of their minds.
TELE IMPORTANCE OF SLEF.P.-TllOl l 3
is no fact more clearly established in
the•pbysiology of man than this, that
the brain expands its energies and it
self during hours of 'wakefulness, and
that these are recuperated during
sleep; if the recuperation does not
equal the expanditurc, the brain-with
ors; this leads to insanity. ,
Thus it is that in early .history per
sons who were condemned to death by
being prevented from sleeping, always
died raving maniacs; thus it, is thai
thoso who starved to death, first'; be
come insane; the brain is not nourish
ed, and they cannot sleep. Crazy'per
sons are poor, sleepers, good sleepers
seldom become crazy. . .
The practical inferences are these :
1. Those who .think - , most, who do
most brain. work, .require mostfileep;
2. That 'time saved *from necessary
sleep is infallibly destructive to mind,.
bodyi and estate.
3. Giveybursolf, your children ; your
servants—give all .that are under you
—the fullest amount of sleep ,they will
talw, by compelling them to go to : bed
at some regular hour, and to rise at ii.
stated hour, and within a fortnight
ilermwrafsewe
the rising sun; will unloose the hOnds
of sleep the moment enough repose
has been secured for the want of the
system.
This is the only safe and sufficient
rule; and as , ta the question how Much
sleep iiny ono :requires; each must 'be a
rule for himself; 'great Miturci;:will
never fail to write it out to the °beer
ver under the rggulatidnB ilia given.
