FROM TUE CIERMAN A:rich map once hired , a boy, who served him honestly and indynotrious ly; be was the. first to rise in • the morning - 410 last to - go to bed at might and never besitittedto perform even the disagreeable duties which felt tolitestutre of others; bat which toy refuited,toi r do. His looks were always cheerarl and cOntented, and he never was heard to mgroitir.— When he had . served a, year his trfak ter thought to himself, "if ipay hiin hiksvages he may go Away-; it will thellefore be most prudentritot .to do so ; I shall thereby mote something, and he will stay." And so the, -boy worked another year, and though no tvages cw:e, he said nothing and looked liWppy. At last- the end of the third year arrived; the muster felt in his pockets, but took nothing out then the boy spoke. "Master," said he, "I have served you honorably for three years . :; eve me I pray you, what I have lastly earned. I wish to leave you, and see more of the world." "My dear fellow," replied the nig gard; "you have indeed served me faithfully, and you shall be generous ly rewarded." So saying he searched his pockets again, and this time counted out throe crown pieces. "A crown," he said, "for each year; it is liberal; few Masters would pay such wages." 'The boy who knew very little a bout money, was quite satisfied; he received his scanty pay and deter mined now that his pockets were full, he would play. lie set of there fore to see 'the world;" up-hill and down-hill, he ran and sung to his heart's content`; but presently, as he leaped a bush, a 'little man suddenly appeared before him. 'Whither away, Brother Merry,' asked the stranger, 'your cares seem but a light burden to you!' • 'Why should I be sad,' answered the boy, 'when I have three years' wages in my pocket.' 'And how: nuch is Abet ?' inquired the little .man. 'Three good crowns.' 'Listen to me,' said the dwarf; am a poor, needy creature, unable to work; give me the money; you are young and can earn your bread! The boy's heart A.Was goof; it felt pity for the miserable little uan; so he banded him his hard-gottip. wages. 'Take them, said be e •T`can work for more.' 'You have a kind heat,' said the mannikin. '1 011 re `d you by granting you three Wrsibes--one "for eaokicrown.

'You shall have all,' cried the little man, as he took out of the hush, where Oily seemed to have been placed in readiness, a fine fiddle, and bird-gun—'no man in 'kb's world ‘sball refuse what you ask = 'My heart what more can you de sire said thaboy to himself, as be joyfully went the , his way. He soon overtook a wicked-looking man, .who LEBANON, PA., WEDNESpAY, MAY .14, 1862. stood listening to the song of . a bird, which was perched on the very sum. snit - of a high tree. 'Wonderful l' cried the man, 'such a small: animal with such a great voice ! I wish I could get near e nough to put some salt on . its tail! . 'The boy. aimed at the bird with his magic gun, and it fell into a tlikti b.... •: . : r 'llhere rogue,' said - he to the other, - ‘yeu i atay have it if .you fetch it' . '‘Alaster,'_ replied the man, 'leave out the 'rogue when you call the dog; but I will pick up the bird.' • In his'efforta to get it out, he had worked himself into the middle of the prickly bush, when the boy was seized with a-longing to try his fiddle, But, acireely.had he begun to scrape, When.the man -began 'also to , dance ; and - thaftister• the itinsid,. the faster and higher 41eisjittitped, though the• thoros tore' his dirty coat, combed di ' :his•duaty -hair and pricked and scratched his whole body. • ; . 'Leave off, leave off,' cried he, - 'I do riot :wish to dance - 1' • -But he -cried in vain. 'You have flayed many a man, I•tlare Say,',Z7an swerecl the 'boy, 'now we will see wha s t the thorn-bush can do for you I' And louder and - faster sounded the fiddle, •and faster and higher danced the gipsy . .,, till' the thorns were hung With the titters of-'his' coat. • 'Mercy, Mercy,' he screamed at last; - . 'you' shall have - whatever 'I can giVe you, - only ceaec.to play: Here, here,- take this purse of gold!' • • 'Since you are so ready to ,pay,' said the buy, 'I will cease my music ; but I must saYyou dincewell to it— it is a treat to to.see you.' • Wit:li that he took the purse and departed. The thievish looking man watched 'him Until he was quite out of sight then he bawled insultingly after 'him. 'YOu miserable scraper! you ale. iouSa fiddler wait till I find, you a lone.. I will chaseyouuntil you have not a sole to you shoe; you ragamuffin! stick ft farthing in your mouth, anch say you are worth. six dollars!' , And Oils lie abused.him aslongas he could find words. When he had sufficiently delivired himself, he ran to the judge of the next town. 'Honorable judge,' cried he. "I' beg your mercy;' see how 1 have been ill-treated and :robbed on the open highways;:. a stone might pity me; my clothes arc torn, my body .is pricked andseratchcd, and a purse of gold has -"been taken from me—a ATilrolltteats, each one brighter than the other.. ,Leotreat you, good judge, '!et the' marrbe-caugh tan d sent to prison ?' 'Was it a soldier; asked the judge 'who has so. wounded you. with Lhis- sa bre ?' indeed,. replied the gipsy, 'it was one who had no sabre, but a gun hanging at his buck, and afiddleifrom his neck, the rascal can easily be Teo ognizod.' The judge sent some people ,- after the boy ; •they soon. overtook him, for he had gone on•very slowly ; they searched him,, and found hispocket the purse of gold: 110. was brought to triskli and with a loud' voice dueler- 'I did not -beat the fellow, aor , eteal his gold; ho gave it to me of r his own free will, that I might cease my mu sic, whieh he did not like.' 'He can lie as fast as I can catch flies off the viitll4,eried .his •ftetuaer. And the judge said, 'yours is a bad defence;' and he sentenced him to be hanged as a highway robber-. - As theyied him away to the gallows ; the gipsy bawled 'afte#iin triumph antly: • 'You wiarthleti*fellow 1 you ctte.t scraper! n* . 'itat will receive your reward The boy quietly ascended the lad der eitth the hangman, but, on -.the last step, he turned and I?egged'lthe judge . to grant him one favor, been he died. will grant it,' replied the judge, vg: condition that you do not- ask for your-life' ask not for my life,' said the boy, 'but to be permitted to play once more on my beloved fiddle l' 'Do not let him, do not let 'him,' screamed the rogue. 'Why should I not allow him to en joy this one short pleasure ?' said the judge; have granted it already, he shall have his wish 1' 'Tie me fast ! bind me down!' cried the gipsy. The fiddle-playing began; at the first stroke every one became an steady--judge, clerks, and bystanders, tottered—and the rope fell from the hands of those whd were tying clown the tatterdemalion; at the second, they all raised one leg,irand the hangman let go his prisoner, and made ready for the dance; at the third all sprang, into the air; the judge And accuser were foremost, and leaped the highest. Every q . one danced, old and young, fat and lean; even the dogs got - on their hind legs, .and hopped ! Faster and faster wenfthe fiddle, and higher jumped the dancers, until at last, in their fury, they kicked and H screamed most dismally,. Then the judge gasped— 'Cease playing, and I will give you "your life! The fiddler stopped, descended the ladder, and approached the wreked looking gipsy, who lay panting for ( breath. 'Rogue; said ,he, ienufess where yon got that purse, of ducats, or I w ill play again I' stole it; I stole it r .he cried piti fully.

A can non ball or portion of shell has carried a way all the skin add scalp from a whole side of the head and face ;' a - Milne ball has entered the back part of the head, coming out through the nose or the cheek bone, carrying away all the bony and fleshy substance of the face, and leaving, the most horrid mutilation you can imagX ine. Another is shot through the temples, one or both eyes torn out and lying on the cheek ; another with the lower jaw alt shot away, and the poor, dry and fe vered tongue :swelled as large as a man's arm. 'Again turn down the coarse but bloody woolen - blanket from the poor man's breast ; a bullet has gone through the chest, the bloody serum and the bubbles of air press or ooze out of each wound at every labored breath ; his lips are blue, his skin is cold, sweat oozes out at every pore; he, too, With the utmost difficulty, breathes out, " Do help me !" But all we can say or do is to assure the poor suf ferer that his only relief is in a dose of morphine, and his only rest - the grave.— Another has - a shoulder or an arm pierc ed or carried. away. If the shoulder is carried away, wash and dress, cover, up,* assuage the pain and wait the fatal' mo ment ; if the arm' be only' badly shattered, the knife and the saw soon do their work; the poor fellow is maimed, for, life, wheth er it be , short Orlangi-_ He I's laid away as, best heeari - be to run his chine& An .tithiv is-shot through,the back, and,an en tire tiaralysis of the whole lower part of the tiody has ensiled. He breathes a few hours or days at most.- Another is shot through the hips, leaving the bones a per fectly barer He, too, soon goes to his long home, hfs final and last resting place. Then again, the variety of wound and mutilation which are met within the legs, and nuinber and variety of operations, which are needed and performed, would take volumes, and not letters to describe. It is out of my power toegive a' graphic view of what has come under my notice and care— The estimate I gave you the other day, of the number of our killed and woundW, 5,000 killed and 15,000 'wounded, is real ly below the fact. I have yet been in no battle, but have seen a great deal of its horrors., Paducah is at the' jiinction, of the Tennessee with the Ohio Rivers. it is the:first point of any kind of size that is reached from th&field or battle, and is the first point where a general hospital is `lo cated. All the boats first stop here and all the worst cases are taken off, hence the`great number and variety of our op. erations. ' I cut off forty-one limbs in a single night. At first I felt really nervous ; at last I really liked it. So ttle:feelings of poor human nature can hecorrieqiliinted. MARGARET VW orrazeTot.—Out of the numerous anecdotes which show this wo. man's native goodness oeart, We con clude with the folleWing,:—The Bishop of Carlisle related that; on Cone ltecasion he saw a well dressed gentlewoman turn in under an arch in the street, followed by one of her own se; in a state of utter poverty. He was curious enough to pause, and saw the lady, strippinga warm petticoat from her person, place it in the poor woman's hands milli a-sum of mon ey, the tears rolling down her cheeks at the time. ' The Bishop conceived it to be his (11)4 , also to telieve the distressed ob. ject before them, and he inquired where she resided, inviting the lady to accompa ny them. The place was poor, anti l the poor woman had two little childrenlying down in sickness. .- .„, The lady speedily made things more comfortable and prepared food, which they, needed more than medicine, ftwthe wretched' family. The good Bishop pro. sented them with a liberal donation, "Madam." he said, "I desire to know, that I may remember in my prayers, the name tithe good-Samaritan whom I have thus met." Knowing his rank by his address, she answered, "My Lord, I belong to a profession which gentlemen of your cloth habitually, condemn, in their ignorat%e.— I am an actress.—l am Margaret Wolfing ton—a name which you have - heard- be. lore." The Bishop colored—pdrhaps in apprehension of what the world might say if he was seen in open converse. with one whose moral character was ad much blam ed—but, unable to resist her' graceful frankness and subdued by her true chari ty,. he rsverently placed his hands upon her hetia and said,'"Neither do I condemn thie ; go and' sin no more."

MOBIG BEF()R . THE BATTLE The Battle of' tee Ridge, Arkansas, which settled tlieto,ot Southern Missou ri, and probably 41-4,Likansas aiso,'Ms fought on_the and Bth of Mare f between it - rebel army numbering uplards, of 25,000 men, tinder Generalk Tan Dorn, - Price, and, McCulloch, and the Union forces under Generals Curtis, Siegel : " and Asboth, numbering 0,000. The Confed erate army had succeeded in surronnding our troops, and had thrown a large heavy force in the rear, to cut off all retreat?— On Thursday, the 6th, the attack of the Rebils'began, and throughout that day and the next, the tide of success seemed to set,4ll their favor. w The gallant _Siegel had been twice cut 'off, and twice, after most desperate fighting, had hewn his way, with heavy loss, through the ene my's ranks; ' The evening of the second day came onosnd the wearied troops 'af ter making arrangements for the decisive cortflict of the next morning, lay down on their arms to obtain a , little needed rest- quiet, settled dtrAvn upon , the camp, only disturbed by the groans of the wounded, and bustle of preparations for, the coming day. • - Suddenly 'there arose from the, camp, of the Germansegiments the notes of one of those plaintive airs of the Fatherland which that musical race carry with them' into whatever clime they may wander.-- Softly the strain fipated over that bloody battle ground, the language unknown to most of the listeners, but the melody, car. rying all memories back to the , homee and, the hearts whose fortunes hung in the balance of the morrow. The effect was electric. What heroic resolves 'were kin dled by that simple air, sung in that criti cal hour in the wilderness, no one can tell. We only know the nextsday'S history. r -- Our forces won a splendid victory, and where"the battle raged fiercest were the Germans who sang the previous night way. Cot. Asaiv, THE Rettra..—A correspon dent of a New York paper gives the fol. lowing description of Ashby, who is op posed to Banks and protecting the rear ofJackson's army "AsnbYl----no disciplined soldier, purau nia regular, line of warfare, which is pan ,of a plan comprising different branch es 4service, infantry, cavalry and artil tery--,has displayed -a= and genius in the management of :JA's men which have made him m - the estimation of this division no ordinary commander. Fle has protect ed the retreat of Jackson most admirably, and while, at one time, our advance was close upon - him, he rode up the hill before them as 4uetlras any peaceful farmer on a niarket clay. "He is aigreat horseman, and always has been ; and through these mountains, and forests of the Shenandoah has ran.r ed on horseback in the hunt of the fox and deer, and has (46 distitivuished himself in the tournament,' which is among the still cherished practices of the Virginians, and 1 arn told that While riding at , the top of his speed he will throw his lance upon the ground and seize it again", in passing, with _the utmost dexterity i His horse, too, is disciplined like his master to the ac- Complishment of the most Woriderfurfeats. He will drop to the ground in a flash at the wish of his rider, and rise, again as suddenly; boUnd through the woods like a-deer, avoiding trees and branches, cleaia ing every obstacle, jiuntiing fences and ditches with perfect ease.

It this, as in other cases, we •are too apt to contrast our own knowledge with the ignorance of our ancestor& If We stopped at thii,lt must be confetlied that we should not be much inihe .wrong; but when we" ex tend the commisen - ,beyond the. Goths, Huns and Celt& - to the great nations ofau. tiquity, we - flit:ye — different state of facts. Theretis good reason to behave that not only the anclet : 4:•Egyptians and Hindoos, but also the anent Pertivians and Mex icans, made use of tome of the inflamma ble.•gases- for SO well AS for light-. Lug purposel. That thiCidnese had done, so thousands of years before Mr. Murdoc was-born is no ronger a matter ofconject -121 The fact is now as indisputable as the existence of their Great, Wall. Hum bat tells us that carburetted hydingen• had been used in the province of Btet schuan for several thousand years; and that it'Was Nso far under Control, that It. was carried about in bamboo canes, to be used is occasion required, the same as a, candle or lamp. Guy-Lussac and Proles.. sor Adelung, and, several Other scientific men of equal eminence, - were of opinion thatit was the occasional ignition of these natural gases which gave risato the sun worship of the East, it being well known that deposits of petroleum, or naptha, furn ish.gases which issue in streams from fis4 sores in the earth and which ignited by various means, including lightning or elec tricity. Almost everybody, who has re sided in the neighborhood of coal mines; has observed phenomena of this kind.— Dr. Henry; of Edinburg, in speaking of the fire damp," so much dreaded by col:. Hers, informs us that, from an old un wrought seaiti at Wallsend colliery, a di charge of this gas takes place through a four-itieh metallic pipe of two Cubic feet ger second. The pipe is Carried hp as high as the head gear above the shaft, and from its orifice lawns, with a roaring Sound, the stream of gas, which, having `been ignited, forms a flag of flame seven. or eight feet in length, conspicuous.by day and at night illaminatibg the whole neigh= borhood."—Hationa/ Quarterly Review. • A YANKEE TRICK.-: A letter in the Mar;, blehead (Miss.)

The Bohio's sails were then wet, when a slight gain was made. At last the Captain resorted to strategy, and rigged a "smoke stack" amidthip, and built afire, and soon had "steam on."— As soon as the stranger saw this she hove to, thinking the Bohio a Steamer, and would soon catch her. On boarding her, she was found to be the Henry travers, ofNassau; N. P., with 4 cargo orcoffee and soap, with which'she intended to run the blackade. .She made a nice prize worth $50,000.
