A MYSTERY.
[We give the following wonderfully fine poem,
with its introduction, as we received ifc.J—iV. Y.
Hopic Journal.
“ Travelling in Maine, a year or two ago, an old
olergyman read to me the following lines, lie knew
nothing of their authorship, except that they were
written as a school exercise, in one evening in 1820,
bjy a boy fifteen years of age, named Miltos Wabd.
Evincing as they do uncommon talent, is it not
strange that the summer of such a spring should
have passed unnoticed? Perhaps some of the read
ers of the Home Journal can tell whether their
author still lives, or may point out other productions
of the same pen
THE LYRE.
There was a lyre, ’tis said, which hung
High waving o'er tbe summer air;
An angel hand its chords had strung,
And left to breathe its musio there.
Each wandering breeze that o’er it flew,
Awoke a wilder, sweeter strain, .
Than ever shell of mermaid blew
In coral grottos of the main.
When, springing from the rose’s bell,
Where all nigbt be had sweetly slept,
The zephyr left the flowery dell,
Bright with the tears which morning wept;
He rose, and o’er the trembling lyre
Waved lightly his soft azure wing;
What touch such music could inspire!
What harp suoh lays of joy could sing !
The murmurs of the shaded rills,
' The birds that sweetly warbled by,
And the soft echoes from the hills,
Were heard not where that harp was nigh.
When the last light of fadiDg day
Along the bosom of the west,
In colors softly mingled lay,
While night had darkened all the rest —
Then, softer than that fading light,
And sweeter than that lay that rung
Wild through tbe silence,of the night,
As solemn Philomela sung,
* That harp its plaintive murmur*sighed
Along the dewy breeze of even,
So dear and soft they swelled and died,
They seemed the echoed songs of heaven.
Sometimes, when all tbe air was still,
And not the poplar’s foliage trembled,
That'harp was nightly heard to thrill
With tones no earthly tones resembled.
And then, upon the moon’s pale beams,
Unearthly forms were seen to stray,
Whose starry pinion’s trembling gleams
Would oft around the wild harp play.
But soon the bloom of summer fled—
In earth and air it shone no more;
Each flower and leaf fell pale and dead,
While skies their wintry sternness wore.
One day loud blew the northern blast—
The tempest’s fury raged along—
Oh ! for some angel as he passed,
To shield the harp of heavenly song.
It shrieked—how could it bear the touch—
The cold, rude touch of such a storm—
When e’en the zephyr seemed too much
Sometimes, though always light and warm ;
It loudly shrieked—but ah ! in vain—
The savage wind more fiercely blew;
Odco more—it never shrieked again,
Bor every chord was torn in two.
It never thrilled with anguish more,
Though beaten by the wildest blast :
The pang that thus its bosom tore,
• Was dreadful—but it was the last.
And though the smiles of summer played
Gently upen its shattered form,
And the light zephyrs o’er it strayed,
That lyre they could not wake or warm.
THE WAR IN VIRGINIA.
(THE GREAT BATTLE OF FEEDER.
ICKSBURG.
Full and Interesting Particulars,
fCorrespondence of the N. Y. Tribune.]
Fredericksburg, Saturday, Decembor
13,1862 —11 P. M.—The third aot of the
grand martial drama opened on Thursday
last is over. Another battle has been ad
ded to the bloody record of the Army of
the Potomac.
Night now covers onee more with her
benign mantle scenes of carnage, strife
and destruction. Under her guiding in
fluence, let me attempt to forget the ex
citement and overcome the fatigues of the
day,and desoribe in conoise, though compre
hensive terms, the fearful events of which
I was an eye witness during the last twelve
hours.
Last evening, a General Council of
War, attended by all the grand division,
corps and division commanders, was held
at a late hour at Gen. Sumner’s head
quarters, at which General Burnside sub
mitted and explained his plan for the
general attack he proposed to make to-day
upon the position of the enemy.
The plan comprised a simultaneous ad
vance of our whole line upon the enemy’s
strong positions on the hills in front of the
left and right grand divisions, whioh were
to be carried by sudden assaults upon the
stronghold of select bodies of troops.
It was in keeping with the well-known
boldness and dash of its author, but some
doubts were expressed in the Council of
its practicability by a number of those in
attendance. All, however, expressed their
readiness to undertake anything ordered
by the Commander-in-Chief, and the
necessary instructions were given to com
mence a general movement upon the enemy
with daylight.
The fog that kept the valley of the river
and the edj ic(!nt 'heights from view every
day this week, again prevented the com
mencement of operations at the stated
time. Fortunately, however, it cleared
away early in the day, and about 10 o’clock
orders were directed to the Generals com
manding the right and left grand divisions
to prepare to charge immediately the
works respectively assigned to them.
THE BATTLE ON THE RIGHT.
Gen. Sumner and staff left their head
quarters about 11 o’clock, and repaired to
the Lacey House, from which a full view
of the scene of the impeding action on
the right grand division could be obtained.
Gen. Sumner had selected French’s Divis
ion of Gen. Couch’s corps for the advanoe
of the attacking oolumn.
Orders to move from its position in the
streets of Fredericksburg next to the river
to the outskirts of the town, form a line
of battle by brigades and preceded by a
elqnd of skirmishers, move at a double
quiok upon the first line of the enemy’s
works:
Gen. French was necessarily obliged to
march his troops in solid columns in paral
lel streets. As soon as the head of the
columns had emerged from the lower into
the higher portions of. the streets, the
enemy’s batteries opened upon them from
several points. Upon reaching the out
skirts of the town, the order was given to
deploy, but stone and other fences pre
vented its ready execution.
During the delay thus caused, the troops
were exposed to the enfilading fire which
taxed the advanoe of the troops most
severely. .7 ■
The line being formed at last,..about
noon.the order; to advanoewas given,, The
lineinoved up and over a low.range of 1
elevationB, and “down 'toward' the f»at of-::
the hills, on which the enemy’s breastworks
were situated from houses, rifle-pits, bar
ricades, across the roads and other shelter.
The rebel sharpshooters now opened
from all sides with fearful effect. The
rigor of the fire of the rebel artillery also
steadily increased, and when the line
reaohed the foot of the second range of
hills, a perfect, hail of lead fell upon it.
The advance, however, was continued until
within a few hundred yards of the crest of
the hills, when a rapid succession of ter
rific volleys from long lines, of rebel in
fantry, suddenly rising in front of their
works, ohecked it.
From the position they had gained our
troops now exchangedround after round
with the enemy until their ammunition be
came exhausted, and the line fell back
some distance, leaving nearly one-half of
its number on the field, to make room for
Gen. Hancock’s division.
This division advanced, likewise formed
in parallel lines of brigades. It moved
forward steadfastly up to the point where
Frenoh’s had received its check, when it
was also stopped by the murderous fire of
the rebel infantry and artillery.
For two hours it alternately replied to
the enemy’s musketry, and attempted to
make its way up the second range of hills.
Although unable to advance, and continu
ally losing numbers, it fought until its
ammunition gave out, when it was relieved
by Howard’s division, and retired nearer
to town.
Howard’s command wenf into action
about 3 o’clock. One after the other of
its brigades was advanced to the front;
but, like those of French and Hancock’s,
did not suooeed in reaching the enemy’s
works. The last of it, under Gen. Sully,
was ordered to oharge up the hill with the
bayonet, and moved forward in most gal
lant style, but was ohecked, as all the other
troops had been.
Shortly after Frenoh’s Division had
moved to the attack, Sturgis’ Division of
Wilcox’s Corps advanced over a parallel
road on the left of onr right upon the
works and batteries covering the enemy’s
right flank. It experienced the same diffi
culties in forming, in consequence of ob
structions on tho ground, as Frenoh’s, but
pushed forward with the utmost determina
tion, halting only at times to open its way
by musketry.
It reached within eighty yards of the
crest of the hill it aimed to take, but hav
ing been fearfully weakened in numbers
during its advance, had to halt. It held
the point, gained for three hours.
Notwithstanding it was confronted by
vastly superior numbers of infantry, and
enfiladed by batteries on each flank—even
after its ammunition had all been spent, it
did not give way, but firmly held its ground
until properly relieved shortly before sun
set.
Whpn Howard’s Division moved to the
front, the last of the available force of
Couch’s corps, forming our extreme right,
was employed. Of Wiloox's Corps, Getty’s
Division, whioh had been held in reserve
during the day, was all that were at com
mand after Sturgis had become exhausted
by the severity of its protracted struggle,
Burns having been sent early in the morn
ing to establish connection between the
left and right, and not being within ready
march.
Fortunately, however,Butterfield’s corps
of'Hooker’s Grand Division, which was
acting as a reserve to the right, as Stone
man’s was to the left, came to the rescue
when the energies of Wilcox’s and Couch’s
corps had been nearly spent.. It had com
menced moving across the river, over the
upper and middle bridges, as soon as the
advance of Conch’s and Wilcox’s troops
furnished room for it in the lower part of
the town.
It had all moved across between four
and five o’clock. Shortly before dark
Humphrey’s and Griffin’s Divisions were
ordered to advance, to the front and relieve
the-troops of Gen. Couch on the right and
Gen. Wilcox on- the left. They reaohed
the front and formed in line just before
sunset, and at once charged upon the
enemy’s works.
. Humphrey’s division came within a short
distance of them, and Griffin’s reaohed the
point held by Sturgis, which respective
positions they have sinoe occupied.
During their advance the firing from the
rebel artillery reaohed the highest intensity
of the whole day, but ceased shortly after
nightfall.
Simultaneous with the advance of Griffin
and Humphrey, Getty’s Division moved
from its position up the valley of a little
stream skirting the town and advanced to
the base of the hill occupied by the rebel
batteries on the extreme right, driving the
rebel infantry from behind a stune wall
from which they had greatly troubled our
troops during the day.
Here it lay during the night. Sykes’
division of Butterfield’s corps followed
between Griffin and Humphrey to the front
but arrived too late for action. Thus ended
the conflict between our right and the
rebel left.
THE BATTLE ON THE LEFT.
The lines of Gen. Franklin, as formed
for the attack, represented an obtuse angle
one line of which—Gen. Reynold’s Corps
extended diagonally from the river
bank.
Smith’s corps in a line para'lei with the
river and formed on the right of Wilcox’s
corps. The extreme left was three miles
below Fredericksburg, and the right of
the left Grand Division was less than two
miles from the town. The extent of Gen.
Franklin’s lines then was more than a mile
from right to left.
The position of the different divisions
was as follows, commencing on the right.
First, Brooks’s Division, which laj upon
the ground along the road to Fredericks
burg, running parallel with the river, and
half way between it and the rebel batte
ries.
- Howe’s Division formed on the left; on
his right joined Reynold’s corps, the Ist
Division.of which, General Gibbon com
manding, took position in advanoe beyond
the road. Meade* Division formed an an
gle with Gibbon’s and extended toward the
river- Doubleday was next to Meade, and
rested on the river. This in general was
the position of the left Grand Division
when the aotion commenced.
The first fire was made by the skirmish
ers of the Thirteenth Massachusetts in our
front.. They had moved cautiously in ad
vance of opr lines for half a mile, when
discovering - the enemy’s,piokets they fired
ppon them. .Cannonading soon commenced

LANCASTER CITY, PA,. TUESDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 23- 1562.
ties, a view of the position taken by the
other. Hall’s Battery, the Seoond Maine,
discovered a battery of the enemy
in close proximity and opened a rapid and
vigorous fire upon it.
In a few moments the artillery fire ex
, tended along the entire line. The Seoond
United States Artillery, Captain Banson ;
Cooper’s Battery of Pennsylvania Reserves
and others, made and received a severe at
tack. The skirmishing was kept up as
our lines advanced, and the position of the
enemy in the woods was almost reaohed.
A scattering musketry fire continued from
the first advance, about nine o’olook, till
noon, and with occasional lulls. The can
nonading was heavy and severe.
Daring the advance of the left grand di
vision upon the enemy’s position, Major-
General Stoneman’s corps of the Second
Grand Division, Hooker’s which had moved
to the vioinity of the river the evening pre
vious, moved over the bridges. General
Birney’s division, on the advance, • moved
towards the left to the support of that por
tion of the line. Great enthusiasm was
excited among the troops as the battle flag
of General Birney, of Stoneman’s oorps,
was seen moving aoross the plain, in ad
vance of the flag, in deep column, winding
onward from the river.
General Birney had received orders to
place himself in position to support the
right of Gen. Reynold’s oorps in an attaok
whioh was momentarily expected to be
made. Orders to advanoe having been re
ceived, Gen. Gibbon’s and Gen. Meade’s
division were directed to advanoe upon the
enemy in the- woods and upon the hill,
holding the position if support should come
to them, abandoning it in case they should
be too severely pressed.
Now oame the most successful and de
termined effort on this part of our line.
The attaok was made from the point of
intersection of the angle formed by our
lines already referred to. This point was
nearest to the woods, and the enemy’s
shells were falling thickly abont it.
Gibbon’s Division and the Pennsylvania
Reserves advanced boldly towards the
works of the enemy. They pushed de
terminedly through the brushwood and
bushes on to a grove of cedars, and
through these up the hills towards the
breastworks of the enemy. The works
were carried, many prisoners captured,
and the crest of the hill gained, not, how
ever, without a heavy loss.
General Gibbon has fallen, wounded in
the arm, while leading his command to at
tack. The works of the enemy at this
■point -with gained, but not held. The
enemy, unfortunately, possessed the
strength to concentrate overwhelming num
bers of fresh troops upon the threatened
point, and for all the valor of those who
survived, and all the sacrifices of those
who fell, the position had to be abandoned
and our troops were compelled to fall back
to the plain.
They had penetrated beyond the railroad
and the Bowling Green turnpike, through
the woods and across the outer work of the
enemy to the top of the hill, and were then
foroed back to this side of the railroad,
where they maintained their stand in ad
vance of that they had originally occupied.
In the meantime Gen. Doubleday had
been constantly pushing the enemy upon
the left. A most determined resistance
was made by the enemy as skirmishers
and with reserves and artillery. . The fire
whioh during the forenoon was kept up on
the left told of the most severe fighting.—
For full a mile the enemy was pressed
baok, contesting the ground inoh by inoh,
receiving and inflicting heavy, loss. The
enemy fell back upon his defences and the
advantage gained was indeoisive.
During these successive advanoes and
checks along tho oentre and Left Grand
Division, uninterrupted shelling was kept
up by the Rebel batteries upon the bodies
of troops at different points of the plain.
At a large stone mansion near the centre
of our line, used as a field hospital during
the day, an incessant fire was directed.
Toward the middle of the afternoon the
firing along the lines of the left grand di
vision grew weaker, and gradually settled
into a comparative lull.
Shortly before sunset, however, the fir
ing on the extreme left was again renewed
with increased vigor, and kept up until
after dark. At 54 o’clock it gradually
died away, and at 6 o’clock it had entirely
ceased.
On the left as well as on the right the
battle oame short of our expectations.—
We gain some ground, but failed to rea
lize the main object of the day’s work—
namely, the dislodgement of the enemy
from their intrenched position on the
heights overlooking the plain, held by the
Left, and the town, ocoupied by the Right
Division. New efforts, new sacrifices of
life, will be required to aooomplish it.
By far the severest fighting occurred on
the right. All the Generals that have
participated in the battle of Antietam say
that to-day’s contest on this portion of the
line exceeded it in intensity. The rebels
had our troops at a disadvantage. Their
infantry fought principally under cover,
while their artillery had it almost all their
own way from its elevated position.
On the right it was found impossible to
bring any of our artillery into action, for
want of proper positions in the early part
of the day, until late in the afternoon,
when a single battery, Phillips’, was em
ployed in sections from high points of the
streets of town. At least sixty pieces
played upon our right from the enemy’s
batteries during the greater portion of the
day.
I found it.impossible to obtain anything
like a reliable estimate of our losses up to
the moment of dosing. I have questioned
nearly all the oorps and division com
manders, but they were unable to give
even approximative figures. The right
suffered most severely—probably two
thirds more than the left.
French’s division lost most. The rebel
loss is much smaller than ourß.
Orders were issued this evening for a
renewal of the attack along the whole line
at 9 A. M., but when the hard usage nearly
the whole of our right has experienced
will become fully known to Gen. Burnside,
the order will undoubtedly be counter
manded.
That portion of the army is certainly
not fit to go again into aotion to-morrow.
From prisoners taken on the left it was
ascertained that Longstreet and Jaekson’s
Grand. Divisions were on the rebel left in
the early part of the fight, and Hill on the
right, but in the course of the day Hill
fihdifig himself hardly pressed by Frank
lin, .was supported by a part of Jackson’s
farces.'.
Provision and ammunition trains are
now moving aeross the ‘ bridge to supply
our troops. The fatigue and exposure of
the last three days has greatly told on
their effectiveness.
Correspondence of the Phila. Evening Bulletin
Letter from Washington.
Horrors of the Convalescent
Camp.
Washington, Saturday Eve, Deo. 13.
I have just returned from the so
called Convalescent Camp at Alexandria,
having spent the day in search of sick
Pennsylvania soldiers. More than ever
do I realize something of * man’s inhu
manity to man.’ You may have heard a
good deal about the abuses in that camp ;
but the half has not been told you. The
treatment and oondition of some of its in
mates—some of its victims—is positively
shocking.
Going out from Alexandria, I passed
the notorious slave pen of ‘ Price, Birch
& Co., dealers in Slaves.’ I oonjured up
all sorts of horrors inside of those high
briok walls in days gone by. I imagined,
or tried to, something of the orushed
spirits and bleeding hearts and the physi
cal torture of the thousands of human
beings, old and young, knocked off to the
highest bidder in the qouls and bodies of
men, women and ohildren in that dark,
dirty prison place. But coming baok by
it after one day’s visit to that camp in the
mud, after looking into the wan, spiritless,
pitiful faces of the thousands there, who
have hoped against hope, till all courage
is lost, and seeing where they eat, and
eletfp, and live, or rather die by inohes, in
the filth, and vermin, and mire of that
plaoe provokingly nioknamed a * Conval
escent Camp,’ I concluded that the old
slave pen of so many actual and imaginary
horrors, would be a coveted luxury to
many of the brave, good-hearted fellows on
the hill. And so it would.
In the first place, the whole bleak, bar-.
ren hill on which the oamp is looated is
this day covered in many places with sticky
mud, when we have had no rain for a week.
In stormy times one can’t fail to go in
ankle deep at every step. The Sibley
tents are huddled together without floors
or straw. Ditoh the soil as you will and
it is damp If not soaking wet. This is the
convalescent’s bed. If he has a blanket,
which isn’t always the case, that is his
covering. His fuel he brings on his back
two or three miles, having to take the
limbs cut last winter at that point. I saw
at least a dozen carrying their bundles of
sticks thus to-day, like the old man in the
child story, who was met by death on the
way. And yot I saw at least twenty cords
of good dry wood piled up in oamp ! I
asked one in oharge why they did this, and
he thought they didn’t—said it wasn’t
necessary—yet I saw it, and it is done
every day. The papers have said that
several men froze to death in one cold
night while thus engaged. He said but
one had died by his pile of sticks, and they
thought he was murdered ; one was found
in the privy, but they didn’t think he froze
to death ! Heavenly consolation to his
friends that will be, won’t it 1 I asked
the boys wby they had- to back wood when
there was wood in oamp ? They said they
got part of a stiok from some under officer
to cook their food sometimes, and some
times they didn’t—never half enough for
cold weather. I asked why they didn’t
cut a clump of timber standing half a mile
or -more from oamp. They said that was
guarded, and the guards had orders to fire
on a trespasser —that a few of them got
some rails one cold night and a guard of
soldiers cooked their guns and compelled
them to abandon them.
I saw two men washing their Bhirts in a
oreek two miles away—the nearest good
washing place. I asked them if they be
longed to the convalescent oamp. One
replied ‘no ; we belong to the Death Oamp’
—and I believe him ! I heard an assis
tant surgeon say that a young soldier of
his ward was then lying in his tent on the
ground, with a raging fever, and had been
for 24 hours, because he had no vacant
bed in the hospital. I remarked that suoh
a state of things onght to be exposed.—
He replied, ‘ you can’t say too muoh
against the abuses here, or make them as
bad as they are. But wo (the Assistants)
are not to blame ; we do all we can ; we
have no power.’ I tried to have passes
issued to a few friends who have been
there since July, to be examined. He
couldn’t do it—said more passes were out
then than could be examined in three days.
He and other Assistants had been pro
hibited from examining, and a special
board of three had been appointed. On
their door was written, ‘ No business done
to-day’—nor till Monday—by whioh time
a dozen oases or more will have passed for
examination into the other world ! They
were probably off to Washington having a
good time ; they never work but three or
four hours a day. I heard a gentleman
telling a member of Congress from Ohio
who was there, that he had just found two
men from that State who were never mus
tered in! They enlisted, but were re
jected on examination and went home.—
Subsequently they were arrested as de
serters, put in there and oan’t get out.
Col. Belknap, who was in command,
seemed willing and anxious to mend mat
ters. He said he would shrink from no
responsibility or duty, but he had not full
control; he was interfered with jhe could
not compel the surgeons to act; and two
of them were at loggerheads, eaoh claiming
to be ohief. His requisitions >were not
promptly filled, and if he sent to the
Quartermaster-General for teams, he was
told they had suoh a number, and they
were enough ; while the faot was, many of
those charged to him had been captured
by the rebels some time ago. ,
The trouble, I think, begins with the
doctors. Nothing can be done without an
official examination, and they don’t exam
ine a quarter fast enough. There should
be half a dozen examining boards. Yet
slow as they are, the papers will be gone
.two or three weeks to Washington for ap
proval. They shonld examine every man
at once; if he is down sick, send him to a
hospital; if well, to his regiment •, if incu
rable, discharge him. Send them off
somewhere, anywhere, but for God’s sake,
don’t keep them there to die,.by inches.—
Hundreds of lives, I doubt not, have been
uselessly, recklessly, sacrificed there
already, and hundreds more will be, uhless
Congress applies the remedy, for the Med
ioal Department won’t, or it. opuld have
done so long ago. .
Then, I mistrust, there are, a set of
thieving, shiftless middle-men and under
officials, who oppress the soldier by their
petty power and filch his food. If he
wants to sell some articles for others his
sickly appetite will relish, whioh is accord
ing to army regulations, the ration is stop
ped. The presumption is that when sol
diers are short, in snoh a plaoe as Alexan
dria, there is a gross neglect of official duty
or thieving officials somewhere, for the
Government is not at fault. No soldiers
were ever so boubtifhlly furnished as ours
are now. And there is not one pVrticle of
necessity of excuse for suffering, by even
hard fare in this or any other camp so easy
of acoess, if officials do their duty_as the
men will do theirs.
It is pitiful enough to see So many poor,
broken-spirited, orippled fellows gather
around a man who comes in to look up a
friend, and plead with tears and offers of
all their four, or six, or eight months’ baok
pay, for many of them haven’t had a cent
in six months, if he will only help them
out. They vhave asked, and looked and
waited, month after month, to be examined.
They think if they have some member of
Congress or influential friend to give in
-their names, they will receive attention ;
and so they will. But alone and unaided
they look upon all effort as useless. If
they make complaint of abuses, they say
they are gruffly repulsed and told to mind
their own business. This for men living
perhaps in luxury at home, and quite su
perior in position and worth to many of
their petty tyrants, comes a little tough
on true, free born American citizens.
And thus the brave, high-spirited, enthu
siastic young men who patriotically left
friends and luxuries, and all the heart
oalls a home with a glowing enthusiasm to
oarry the old flag bravely through the
battle storm, or die beneath its starry
folds, becomes the spiritless, dejeoted,
ruined objects of pity, caring little whether
he lives or dies. Sir, it is one of the sad
dest sights of my life. And the remedy is
with the press and the people. Let, them
set their Congressmen at work, for they
can reform these abuses if they will.
Be Truthful Always.
[This little story] copied from an ex
change paper, is excellent. Read it, boys,
and take its lesson well to heart.]
Two country lads came at an early hour
to a market town, and, arranging their lit
tle stands, sat down to wait for customers.
One was furnished with fruits and vege
tables of the boy’s own raising, and the
other supplied with clams and fish. The
market hours passed along, and eaoh little
merchant saw with pleasure his store
steadily decreasing, and an equivalent in
silver bits shining in his money oup. The
last melon lay on Harry’s stand when a
gentleman came by, and placing his hand
upon it, said : ‘ What a large melon ; I
think I must have this for my dinner.
What do you ask for it, my boy ?’
< The melon is the last I have, sir ; and
though it looks very fair, there is an un
sound spot on the other side,’ said the
boy, turning it over.
‘So there is,’ said the man ; ‘.l think I
will not take it.’ ‘ But,’ he added, look
ing into the boy’s fine countenance, ‘ is it
very business like to point out the defeots
of your fruit to customers V '
‘ it is better than being dishonest, sir,’
said the boy,.modestly.
1 You are right, my little fellow ; always
remember that principle and you will find
favor with God, and man also. You have
nothing else I wish for this morning, but
I shall remember your little stand in
future.’
‘ Are these clams fresh?’ he continued,
;urning to Ben Wilson’s stand.
‘ Yes, sir ; fresh this morning, I caught
them myself, was the reply ; and a pur
chase being made, the gentleman went
away.
‘ Henry, what a fool you were to show
the gentleman that spot on the melon.
Now, you oan take it home for your pains,
or throw it away. How much wiser i 3 he
about those clams that I oaught yesterday?
Sold them for the same price I c did the
fresh ones. He would never have looked
at the melon until he had gone away.’
‘ Ben, I would not tell a lie, or aot one
either, for twice what I have earned this
morning.. Besides, I shall'be better off in
the end, for I have gained a customer, and
you have lost one.’
And so it proved, for the next day the
gentleman bought nearly all his fruits and
vegetables of Harry, but never invested
another penny ,at the Btand of his neigh
bor. Thus the season passed; the gentle
man finding he could always get a good
artiole of Harry, continually patronized
him, and sometimes talked with him a few
moments about his future hopes and pros
pects. To become a merchant was his
ambition, and when the winter came on,
the gentleman wanted a boy, a boy that he
could trust for his store, deoided on giving
Harry the plaoe. Steadily and surely he
advaneed[in the confidence of his employer,
until, having passed through the various
gradations of clerkship, he became at
length an honored partner in the firm.
OF* A pretty sinner may chance to be
more attractive than an ugly saint, and
persons some times find it out. A good
storyis told of a Yankee divine of advanoed
age who married, for his second wife, a
damsel young and handsome. When the
elders of the church came to him to enquire
if the lady was a suitable person to make a
useful figure as a person’s wife, he answer
ed frankly that he didn’t think she was.
‘But,’ added the irrepressible doctor,
‘ thought I don’t pretend she is a saint, she
is very pretty little sinner, and I love her.’
And the twain became one flesh.
The Coubting of a Sharp Man of
Business. —Potts is a sharp man a man i f
business tact, and when he goes into a
store to trade, he always goes the lowest
cash prioe; and he says:— ‘ Well, I’ll look
about, and if I don’t find anything that
suits me better, I’ll call and take this.’
Potts, like all men, is partial to women
and young ones in particular. Now, quite
lately Potts said to himself‘ lam get
ting rather long in years and guess I’ll get
married.’.
His business qualities wouldn’t let him
wait, so off he travels, and palling upon a
lady friend, opened the conversation by
remarking that he would like to know
what she thought about his getting married.
‘ Oh, Mr. Potts, that is an affair in whioh
I am not so greatly interested, and I pre
fer to leave it with yourself,’
‘ But >’ sa ? B Potts, 4 you aris intereste/l,
and, my dear girl, will you marry ine V „
' The' yoiong lady ! brMhed/hesitated, and
BUOHARAK.
finally, as'Potts w*b very well to do in
tlie world, and morally, financially and po
litically of standing in sooiety, she accepted
him. Whereupon the matter-of-faot Potto
responded:
‘ Well, well. I’ll look about ,and if I
don’t find anybody that suits vie better
than you, Fll come back ’
His Last Words.; —It has been observed
by medical writers that death is frequently
preceded by insanity. This reminds us of
a case which occurred several years sinoe
in a Philadelphia court where a pretty
young widow was in l danger of losing two
thirds of her husband’s estate. Her hus
band’s relations grounded their olaims on
the alleged insanity of the defnnot. It may
be well to premise that the presiding judge
was not only convivial, but also gallant.
‘ What were your husband’s last words?’
asked the attorney.
The pretty young widow blushed, and
looking down, replied—
‘ I’d rather not tell.’ , -
‘But, indeed, you must, ma’am. Your
claim may be deoided by it.’
Still the widow deolined to tell.
At last, a direct appeal from the benoh
elioited the information.
‘ He said, kiss me, Polly, and open that
other bottle of ohampagne.’
We do not know whether it was admira
tion for the deceased husband or living
wife that inspired the judge at that instant,
but at once he cried, with all the enthusi
asm of conviotion :
‘ Sensible to the last!’ and gave a decis
ion in her favpr at onoe.
0F“ Albert was a great rogue in sohool;
feet, hands and tongue wen* always busy,
oftentimes to the detriment of that quiet so
much -desired there. One day, being more
troublesome that usual, his teacher beoame
displeased with him and pointing to a seat
in the corner, she sternly commanded him
to take it. Albert obeyed, with a comical
air, and with a flourish of infantile triumph,
said : ‘ Been wanting to sit there all the
morning’, but dnrsn’t ask you.’

that it has not been without some influence in producing

at the late election; and if fearlessness in the discharge of

future than it has been In the past We confidently look
for increased encouragement in this great enterprise, and
appeal to every influential Democrat in the Btate to lend

thirty thousand. The expense to each Individual is trifling,
the benefit to the party may be great. Believing that tbs
Democracy of the State feel the necessity of sustaining a
fearless central organ, we make this appeal to them for as

The asm® reasons which Induoe us to raise the price

of which is also Increased. The additional cost to Wh
subscriber will be but trifling; and, while we eannotr per
suade ourselves that the change necessarily made will re*
suit In any diminution of onr daily circulation, yet, were
we certain that such would be the consequence, we would
still be compelled to make it, or suffer a ruinous loss.
Duder these circumstances we must throw ourselves udou

abide their verdict, whatever it may be. . .. i

There is scarcely a village or town in the State in which
