"Cast thy Bread upoii the Waters." BE AIRS. ELLEX M. H. GATES. Tune—" Your Mission." Cast thy bread upon the waters, Ye who have but scant supply, Angel eyes will natch above it, You snail find it by-and-bye; He who in his righteous balance— Doth each human action weigh, Will your sacrifice remember, Will your loving deed repay. Cast thy bread upon the waters. Poor and weary, worn with care, Often sitting in the shadow, Have you not a crumb to spare ! Can you not to those arounti you Siug some little song of hope. As you look, with longing vision, Through Faith's mighty telescope? Ciud thv bread upon the waters, ion who have abundant store, It may float on many billows. It may strand on many a shore; 1 ou may think it lost forever, But as sure as God is true, In this life, or in the other, It will yet return to you. Cast thy bread upon the waters, Far and wide your treasure strew, Scatter it with willing fingers, Laugh for joy to see it go! For if you too closely keep it, It will only drag you down; If you love it more than Jesus It will keep you from your crown. Cast thy bread upon the waters, Waft it on with praying breath, In some distant, uoomfiu moment, It may save a soul from death. When you sleep in solemn silence, 'Neath the inorn and evening dew, Stranger hands which you have strengthened May strew lillies over you. Cast thy bread upon the waters, O be generous in time ! Soon for you the day will darken And the stars will cease to shine. What are all the pearis of Ceylon, What is every earthly gem, To the white robe of the ransomed And the fadeless diadem? IIVE ISCELLANY. A " HOI I.Y BLI E" VS. A CLTMER SOLDIER. The following dialogue recently ou curred between a Union soldier and a companion in arms who adhered to the Copperhead organization: ' Why don't you join the Boys in Blue?' ' That crowd don't suit me. I'm a Democrat.' ' Well, so was I before the war, but I've no fancy now to lei the rebels whom we whipped on the battle-field triumph at the polls I'll vote as I fought, against Jef Davis and all his crew, and so should every faithful Un ion soldier.' ' I've heard that talk before; but I tell you I'm a Democrat, and so was my father before me, and I'll not de sert my party any more than I desert ed the ranks.' ' Your having been a Democrat in old times is no reason why you should give power to Copperheads now, and especially no reason for voting for Hiester Clymer. He's an old Whig, who hated the Democrats worse than poison when they deserved respect, and only became an active member of the party when it began to show sym pathy for treasou. I hate to see a man like you going round in the same old circle, like a horse in a bark-mill, when all the world is changing, just because you went round that circle under dif ferent circumstances. Geary, a brave soldier, and a life long Democrat, is nominated on the Union side, and just as these leaders have changed ground here they've changed all over the coun try. Lincoln's Cabinet contained more old Democrats than old Whigs, and as the best of the men who gave vitality to the Democratic party your father supported left it, it got few new re cruits except such sorry specimens of cast-off renegades as William B. Heed, the volunteer counsel of Jef Davis, George M. Wharton and Hiester Cly mer, men who always bated Democra cy tor its virtues and praise now only the vices that blossomed out in trea son. Such fellows pick up democracy in the way the Indians pick up civili zation, and they make j'our attach ment to an honorable old cause a lever to help them sustain a dishonorable new one.' ' We've got other leaders, though, that were always Democrats, and I'm boilnd to stand by them.' ; You're not bound to stand by any thing or anybody but your country, and wben your Democratic leaders turn against it you should turn against them.' 4 Now look here, you can't make that out. We went to light for 4 the Union as it was and the Constitution as it is/ and I'm going to stand by that same doctrine. It's the Radicals that's trai tors now, and the Democrats that's Union men and patriots. That's the ground that Clymer takes in his speech es. He said at Reading that he was bound to fight ' secession and rebel lion.' The whole thing has got mix ed up. Now, since we whipped the rebels, your party won't let them back in the Union, and that makes them just as bad as the first secessionists.' ' Do you think that a chestnut horse is the same thing as a horse chestnut? If you do, you'll find out the difference i hen you take them to market; and that it is not greater in proportion than the difference between the seces sion you and I risked our lives to sub due while Iliester Clyrner opened up a lire in our rear, and the thing he de nounces as secession in his speeches. When rebel bullets were flying thick around us, and our comrades were fall ing on every side, or if captured were reserved for a fate more horrible than immediate death in the prison-pens of Libby, Belle Isle and Andersonville, what mockery it would have been to tell us that the sole or principal object for which we were confronting danger was that the enemies firing into our ranks might be again installed in the Federal Capitol to make laws for, and with the aid of Northern Copperheads, to rule and persecute the loyal people of the whole United States! If that was so, we might as well have staid at home, for it was scarcely worth while to fight to fasten a chain around our own necks. No. We fought to estab lish the authority of the Federal Gov ernment over the seceding States, and when this was accomplished, and defi ant treason crushed, our hope and ex pectation was that loyal men should govern the heritage we had regained. But the rebels had no sooner been van quished in fair warfare than the treach ery ol Andrew Johnson, and the prom ises of their Northern allies, inspired the hope that by a new flank move ment the lost caUse' might still tri umph. and, after losing Richmond, virtually remove the capitol of the Confederacy to Washington. That's the plan now, as plain as the nose on your face; and there is not a rebel in the land, North or South, that don't chuckle over it and work hard for its success. As they combine to support it, we should unite to crush it, if we wish to perpetuate the fruits of our victories.' ' The Southern States ought to get back in the Union some time, though, for all that, and we've 110 right to keep them out.' '1 lie}* could get back easily enough if they showed sincere repentance lor their treason and gave guarantees against a repetition of their war on loyal men and loyal interests. Let them pass the constitutional amend ment, and form loyal State govern ments, like that in Tennessee, and like her they can gain admission for their Senators and Congi'essmen.' ' I don't believe in tinkering at the Constitution. Why do you want to change it?' ' Because that is the only practical way of making a permanent treaty of peace with the rebel States, and'the only way of adapting the government ol the country to the changed condi tion produced by the war. You know that while we were in camp, Hiester Clymer and the Copperheads in Penn sylvania tried to prevent us from vo ting at all, and the State constitution was changed to give soldiers the right of suffrage. If the Federal Constitu tion is not amended now. and the reb el Congressmen are admitted, each rebel soldier will have twice as much control over the Federal Government as you or I. If you are ready to sub mit to that, I am not.' ; That's rather hard, I must confess. I don't know but what it's right to make that change; but then your par ty asks other changes, too.' ' None that are not just and necessa ry. Only a guarantee that the rebels shall not rob the treasury with claims for their debt and damages; that their worst men shall not be immediately restored to power, and that civil rights shall be extended to all American"cit izens.' ' I don't want to help pay the rebel debt any more than you do; and it would not bo pleasant to think that the men who shot down our compan ions should step into the front seats of polit'cs.too suddenly; but the civil rights clause has got a nigger in the wood-pile, and I'm against negro equal ity, and especially against giving them the right to vote.' 1 It says nothing about suffrage one way or the other. But it provides against their oppression. The war showed how little the rebels cared for the health or lives of white prisoners, and they care less for the rights of freedmen. They have so long been accustomed to treat colored men as brutes that it will require sharp laws sharply administered to teach them better. The negroes are human be ings entitled to our protection under any circumstances, and certainly since they acted as our faithful allies against the cruelty of a common enemy. Of all the bugbears ever invented to frighten fools, negro equality is the most ridiculous. The maintenance of your manhood don't depend upon the power of rebel ruffians to cheat, as sault and murder emancipated slaves with impunity. The ' man's the man for a' that,' being certainly made no better by the oppression of his fellow mamas' ©©lirsj&'sra men, on the one hand, as he is 110 worse tor lack of rank and fortune, on the other. \ou talk about Democracy!— What a libel on the word it is tomake it the name of a party that boasts of its anxiety 1 heap undeserved wrong and ignomii 1 anon a down trodden race that p. .v.-: its patriotism and loyalty in the darkest ours of nation al adversity, and is now by the confes sion of friend and foe proving its in dustry* and capacity for freedom. The sneers and taunts hurled against it bv your Democratic speakers are as old as the Dills. Aristocrats have used them for centuries against the labor ing masses of the white race, and it is only where brave, bold Radicals have successfully combattcd them, that the masses of any color are free.' \asby
