VIIEtAT IS WI ALTB
Wealth is something more than gold,
More than luxury and ease;
Treasures never to be told
May be found apart from these,
Men who groat possessions own
May be needy none the less:
They are rich, and they alone,
Who have stores of nobleness.
Palaces are dreary domes ;
Fair demesnes but deserts wild;
If there be not happy homes,
Gentle thoughts and manners mild.
Trust me, though hie lot be small,
And he makes but slight pretence,
lie who lives at peace with all,
Dwells in true magnificence. •
If you'd prove of noble birth,
0 beware of judgments rash ;
Scorn to measure human worth
By the sordid rule of cash.
Gold and silver may depart,

Be who has tits trl:f-st heart
Is the richest of us all.
Not all Sad.
Every hour comes freighted with
change. Every hour brings decay and
death. Change is whispered in every
passing breeze,—written on the airy
cloud, painted on the forest leaves, and
boomed by the ocean waves as they
lash the shore. But change is not al
ways sad. Autumn is but the harbin
ger of spring. Thu flowers drop and
Mingle with the dust, that another, no
less beautiful and dear, may bloom. If
happy hearts are made sorrowful by
unfortunate occurrences, sad hearts,
too, aro made joyful by pleasant chan•
ges. If some are left desolate and al
one who were surrounded once by kin
dyed and friends, so some who were
friendless and uneared for have found
an interest in the hearts, and a home
in the affections, of those about them,
gladdened by the good fortune that has
bettered their condition. Suppose a
revelation wore given us to-day that
everything henceforth in this world
was to abide as it is; that the time for
change had ceased, and should be
known no more again forever; what
consternation would seize us. Do any

It is as true as trite that man is never

Now misfortune assails us, there is
hope that some kind change may mud

and we bear our burdens more lightly
as we remember the mutability of
earthly things. We are accustomed to
speak sadly of earth's changes; but

In the spiritual as well as the mate

and vastly more important. It is a

Important Letters Between Generals
Grant and Sherman.
What Mach thought of the Other when
the Lieutenant Generalship was Re..
created.
The following two historical letters
are taken from the advance sheets of
Col. Bowman's history of "Sherman
and his Campaign," shortly to bo pub
lished by C. B. Richardson, of Now
York, Col. Bowman writes :
OEN. GRANT TO GEN. EIIIERMAN
On the 4th of March, 1864, at Nash
ville, Major• General Grant received
telegraph orders to report in person
at Washington. Congress had passed
en act authorizing the appointment of
a Lieutenant General to command tho
armies of the - United States, and the
President had nominated Gen. Grant
for the appointment. Before starting
on his journey, Grant seized his pen,
and in the very moment of his great.
est elevation, filled with generosity to.
ward those others, to whose exertions
he modestly chose to ascribe his own
deserved reward, hastily wrote these
touching lines :
"DEAR SIIERIVAN : The bill reviving
the grade of Lieutenat General in the
army has become a law, and my name
has boon sont to the Senate for the
p!ace. I now receive orders to report
to %V r ;,sllington immediately in person,
which indic3tes a con&rmation, or a
likelihood of confirmation.
"I start in the morning to comply
with the order.
"Whilst I have boon eminently suc
cessful in this war, in at least gaining
the confidence of the public, no ono
feels more than I how muci2 of this
success is due to the energy, skill, and
the harmonious putting forth of that
energy and skill, of those whom it has
been my good fortune to have occupy
ing subordinate positions under me.
"There are many officers to whom
these remarks aro applicable, to a
greater or less degree, proportionate
to their ability as soldiers; birt what I
want is to express my thanks to you
and McPherson, as the men to whom,
above all others, I feel indebted for
whatever I have bad of 'success.
''How far your advice and assist
ance have been of help to me, you
know. now far your execution of
whatever has boon given you to do
entitles you to the reward I am re
ceiving, you cannot know as well as I.
"I foul all the gratitude this letter
would express, giving it the most flat
tering construction.
"The word you I use in the plural,
intending it for McPherson also. I
should writo to him, and will some
day, but starting in the morning, I do
not know that I will find time just

GENERAL SHERMAN'S REPLY
Sherman received this letter near
Memphis on tho. 10th of March, and
immediately replied:
"DEAR GENERAL : I have your more
than kind and characteristic letter of
the 14th instant. I will send a copy
to General McPherson at once:
"You do yourself injustice and us
too much honor in assigning to us too
large a share of the merits which
havplecl to your high advancement. I
know you to approve the friendship I
have ever professed to you, and will
permit rue to continue, as heretofore,
to manifest it on all occasions.
"You aro now Washington's legiti
mate successor, and occupy a position
of almost dangerous elevation; but if
you can continue, as heretofore, to be
yoursolf, simple, honest and unpreten.
ding, you will enjoy through life the
respect and love of friends, and the
homage of millions of human beings,
that will award you a large share in
securing to them and their deseen•
dents a government of law and sta
bility.
"I repeat, you do Gen. McPherson
and myself too much honor. At Bel
mont you manifested your traits--
neither of us being near. At Donel
son, also, you illustrated your whole
character: I was not near, and pen.
McPherson in too subordinate a capa
city to influence you.
"Vntil you had won Done!son, t (=-
fees I was almost cowed by the terri
ble array of anarchical elements that
presented themselves at every point;
but that admitted a ray of light I have
followed since.
"I believe you are as brave, patri•
otic and just as the great ppatotype,
Washington--as unselfish, kind.heart•
ad and honest as a man should be—
hat the chief cluiracteristio is the
pie faith ia success- you have- always
manifested,. which' Can liken to noth
ing also than the faith 4 Christian has
in the Saviour.
"This faith gar° you victory at Shi

-PERSEVERE.-
have completed your preparation; you
go into the battle without heSitation,
as ut Chattanooga—no doubt; no re.
serves; and I tell you, it was this that
made us act with confidence. I knew,
wherever I was, that you thought of
me, and if I got in a tight place you
would help me out, if alive.
"My only point of doubt was, •in
your knowledge of grand strategy,
and of books of science and history;
but, I confess, your common sense
seems to have supplied all those.
'Now as to the future. Don't stay
in Washington ; come West; take to
yourself the whole liissismppi Valley.
Let us make it dead sure, and I toll
you the Atlantic slopes and the Pacific
shores will follow its destiny, as sure
as the limbs of a tree live or die with
the main trunk. We have done much,
but still much remains. Time and
time's influences are with us. We'
could almost afford to sit Still and let
those influences work.
"Here lies the seat of the coming
empire; and from the West, when our
task is done, we will make short work
of Charleston and Richmond, and the
impoverished coast of the Atlantic.
Your eincere friend,
W. T. SHERMAN."
A Railroad Oar at Night.
B. P. Taylor has been taking a rail.
road ride, and having failed perhaps,
to enjoy the ride, enjoys himself in de
scribing what he saw. The following
glimpse at his companiong as they ap.
pearod when night said "sleep," will
be appreciated by all who have "berm
there."
"I °sine near forgetting that your old
friends were all on the train: the wo
man who plumps down into your seat
and regards you with thankless and
supercilious eyebrows, as if yott were
somebody that bad blundered into
breatlidorn without leave; end the man
who dons his best garments to travel
in; mounts the train as clerical as black
broad cloth can make him, and leaves
it with the looks of a dusty miller.
And the night scenes, sounds and
scents are Ite curious aseVer. Whiffs.
of boots and smothering gusts of musk,
patchouli, choose, tobacco, 'and feet,
that could never be fit to "walk on
Zion's hill" without a wade and wash
in Jordan, are blended. Its the night
wears on, the fellow who always fails
to be funny, flickers out like a penny
dip; the ten-pin of a man who bad
sat bolt upright all day, grows an
courtly as a Ifandaran, for even "Ho
mer nods" at times; the girl with little
giggle, that had been rippling like run
' ning water, "weak, washy" and ever
lasting, intermits, grows interesting
and falls asleep; men make letter Z's
of themselves, shut up like pocket
knives, roll up likoporeupines, diverge
like Y's; trim and , shapely women
tumble to pieces, and lie in little.heaps
of undistinguishable garments upon
the seats; the rod and dissipated lamps
wink sleepily and lazily at you, and
the clatter to-clank of the iron wheels
hammers out the long dull strip of dark
ness. Then comes that menagerie of
respiration that mod have agreed to
call snoring; you have barks, snuffs,
snorts and growls; ono creaks like a
rusty bingo, another pants like an en
gine, or whines like a spaniel, or is
forever blowing out candles. By and
by, the car windows turn rebel grey,
for a day is beginning to dawn. Did
you ever see a woman hatched out?
Now is the golden opportunity. Londe
—if that is the lady's name we read
of—whose double yolked egg gave us
Castor and Pollux—if I Imo not for—
gotten all about it—was hardly more
wonderful. Yonder bundle of skirts,
shawls and cloaks as shapeless as a
grist, begins to stir; first, peeps out a
pair of feet, and then a paitof hands,
and then a fair and tangled head ; at
last emerges a female shape; and Eve
is hatched before your eyes, and the
world is better for a waking woman.

then ordered the old soldier to be aut

A Rich Marriage Ceremony.
The following is a description of a
.marriage in Illinois, by a newly ap
pointed Justice of the Peace, who is
something of a wag. He says:
Having been appointed to the desira
ble "polish" of Justice of the Peace, I
was accosted on the 4th of July by a
sleek looking young man, and in silvery
tones requested rue to proceed to a
neighboring hotel,as be wished to enter
into the holy bands of matrimony.
Hero was a "squeleher." I bad never
done anything of the kind; had no
books or forms; yet I was determined
to do the thing up strong and in a legal
manner, so I proceeded to the hotel,
bearing in my arms ono copy of„the
Revised Statutes, one ditto Webster's
Unabridged Dictionary, one copy large
size Bible,a small copy of the Creed and
the Artielei of Faith of the. Congreg
ational.. ChUreb, • one copy of Pope's
Essay • on Man, and a sectional part of
the map where the victim lived. Hay
in placed a table in the middle of the
room; and seated myself behind it, I
ing trumpet tones, called the case.
With that the young man and woman,
with great alacrity stepped up before
me. Having sworn them .on the.die
tionary to answer well and truly. all
questions f was about to ask, I pro- .
ceeded. I told the young man that, •
being an entire stranger, I should have
to ask him to give bail for the costs.—
Having heard • this so frequently In
court, I thought it indispensable. Ile
answered if I mean t• the free for per—
forming the Ceremony,he would deposit
it then and there. As I did not know
exactly what I did mean, I tnagnani••
mously waived that portion of the core;
mony. I . then told him it would be
necessary to give bail to keep the place.
This ho was willing to do when he ar
rived at home, and I then waived that
point also.
Having established to my satisfaction
that they wanted to get married, and
that they were old enough to enter that
blessed state, I proceeded to do the
knot. I asked him if he was willing to
take. that woman to be, hie wife. Ho .
said ho was. I told him that I did not
require haste in the answer, that he
• mightreflect a few minutes Übe wished.
I told him she looked like a fine girl,
and I had no doubt she was, but if the
sequel proved that ho had .been taken
in, I did not want to be held responsi
ble. I said he must love, honor and
obey her as long as she lived.
must not be "snappy" .around the
house, nor spit tobacco juice on the
floor, all of which he promised faith
fully to heed.
"Now,"said I,"Georgiana,(her name
was Georgiana) you hear what Hum
phrey says. Do you accept the invitas
tion to become his wife ? Will you be
lenient toward his faults, and cherish
his virtues? Will you never bo guilty
of throwing furniture at his bead for
slight offenses, and will you get three
meals a day without grumbling ?" She
said she would. - I asked them if they
believed in the commandments, and
they said they did. Having read the
creed and the articles of faith, as aforo.
said, I exclaimed "Humphrey, take
her; she is yours; 1 cannot withhold
my consent. Georgiana, when safe in
the arms of yoUr Humphrey, you can
defy the scoffs and jeers of the world."
I then read a little *out "Essay on
Man." As a finale to the scene, I de
livered the following exordium, "Go in
peace ; sin no more."
The generous Humphrey having pla
ced a fay cent check in my unwilling
palm, I bade the happy pair a final
adieu.
Ix A Foo.—A few years ago, there
lived in the town of , a son of
Judge 8., whom we will call Joe, who
frequently imbibed more than he could
comfortably carry. There also resided
in the neighborhood a planter named
\V., who kept a saloon. Now W. was a
great practical joker. On one occasion.
Joe came into W.'s saloon, and rather
early in the morning got very much
intoxicated, and finally fell asleep in
his chair. Joe was vary near sighted,
and always wore specs. After ho bad
slept some time, W. took off his specs,
blackened the glasses, put them back
again,. lighted the lamps, and then
awoke Joe, telling him it was about
12 o'clock at night and he wanted to
shut up. Joe started, and remarked
thiet be bad slept some time. W. then
said :
"Joe, it is very dark, au4 if you will
bring it back again, I will lend you a
lantern."
W. lighted a lantern, gave it to Joo,
and helped him up stairs. Joe went

English Alarm at the. Fel:dans.
1 The Fenian movement has evident
ly passed beyond the sphere of Eng
lish contempt and ridicule, Late Eu•
ropean advices state that the English
government has taken the precaution
to increase the number of reginients in
Ireland in cotikequenee. of the spread
of Fentauism in that, country. This
information is by no means surprising
or unexpected in this country, where,
the strength and objects of the Fenian
movement are generally understood.
But it places the London journals. in
an awkward.position. For Menthe. ,
past the movement has been a stand
ing jeke,and burlesque to the London
Times, which has exhibited its usual
ponderous insensibility to t ‘ he.signs of .
the times in depreciating What 'it has
been pleased to terre'"the grand Irish
farce." By this period the Times and
the lesser 'fry of journals in England
and Ireland that follow in the wake of
the great journal, have probably dis
covered that the Fenian movement is
no joke. More English regiments in
Ireland! The third part of the Brit
ish empire once more in an - attitude of
revolution, and a powerful foreign or
ganization ready to aid and assist, are
events that uproar to be understood
by Lord Palmerston; and can hardly
fail to exercise a serious influence on
European politics, which are liable to
be disturbed by nothing so much as
by events that affect the internal con
dition of the formidable British empire
•That England will adopt prompt
measures to squelch this rising cloud is
self evident. The sympathy of that
country for rebellion is like a certain
class of British manufactures, intended
for the foreign and not the home mar :
ket. General Leo and. Jefferson Davis
would be no heroes in Ireland.
That Fenianism is a now and start
ling menace to England it were folly
to deny. The organization in Ireland
has progressed quietly and secretly un.
tit it embraces by this time fully one
third if not ono half of the able bodied
men under forty years of ugo. The
feelings of the masses are illustrated
by the sympathy manifested for the
unlucky and indiscreet Fonians who
fall into the hands of the police, and
the terrorism existing against witnes.
SOB for the prosecution. The late Eng.
lish and Irish papers are lull of evi
dence of this kind. .A.nothor serious
danger is the fact that Fenianism has
largely.penetrated the British army,
which is composed of nearly two thiids

But the chief strength of the Fenian
movement consists in the fact that it is
mainly beyond the reach of British
control. If the organizatiou were
merely local, it would aeon succumb to
the potent influence of the prison, the
bayonet, and tho halter. But the
headquarters of the movement are in
the United States, where the Celtic
race seems inspired with a DOW and ro
juvonating vigor. In this country
there cannot now bo less than two
hundred thousand Fenian& devoted
and pledged to achieve the independ
once of Ireland. The example of Ita
ly. shows what may be accomplished
in foreign emntries fer the redemption
of a distressed nationality. For over
a quarter of a century, headquarters of
Indian patriots were in France and
England. What has been accorriplish
ed for Italy is not impossible for Ira
land. There are many points of re'
semblance, and, with proper sagacity,
the result may bo identical, and suc
cess ultimately crown the efforts of the
Fenians.
It is evident that the numerous se
cret societies hi Ireland' may derive
immense aid from the Brotherhood in
the United States. The American
Fonians can send to their Irish friends
the money that constitutes the sinews
of war, and the military and civil or
ganizations and discipline that torm
its brilins. The want of these essen;
tials has hitherto produced the (Miura
of the repeated attempts for Irish In
dependence.
tier Our young sister who sits by the
side of Lake Michigan and says, "I
am Chicago ; let New York take no—
tice!" sends forth to an astonished
country a report that her population
on the Ist of June was 204,000 souls.—
In the annals of the world's cities thie
is an unprecedented tale of prosperity.
The established residents of that won
derful Babylon of the West frequently
say to one another, "It seems only
Yesterday when we were, pasturing
cows on the vory spot where now we
are dwelling in marble palaces." What
is the reason ? As in Italy "all roqcl4
lead to Rome," so in the west all roads
lead to Chicago. No man can travel
in the West without passing through.
