There was once a poor, but very honest,
.contented, and merry kind of a man• is
the village of Tilleda, who happetied to
be giving a christening feast, fort ; about
the eighth time, to some of his neighbors.
Desirous ; of showing all respect Ito the
party at the christebing, he set I . before
them the be • st country wine hepossessed,
which, being quickly dispatched, his
gueits seethed to be looking for a little

"go and bruig up some better win 6 - from

"From'what cellar, father?" inquired
the daughter.- - •
"What Cellar, child ?" repeated the
father, merely in jest; "why, the greatl
wine cellar, belonging to the . knights up
onthe Kyllhausen."
With perfect simplicity the youngtnaid
en took 'a firkin in one hand and

ed'teward:the mountain: About. middle •
way, seated in an 'old anti deserted path'
leading down toward the spot, shti , found
an old housekeeper, dressed in a singular, 1
quaint old fashion, with n large bunch -Of
keys;hanging at her side. The young
' woman paused, not a little. surpriSed, at
the - Sight; but the old lady - inquired of I
her very kindly whether. she . h l ad not
come to fetch wine from the knight's cel
lar. -
"Yes," replied the- tiniid girl, ?but
have gut in, money." - -
"Come With me," isaid the old !house
'keeper : "inn shall have it for - ni:ithing, -
and'better wine than your father ever
bougl&h& , his life." •
They hotioten .Proeyeded alonoit old
deserted road; the old lady inquiring very
particularlv. r byA7 - ay,what was the ap-
•pearanee ohhings t n in Tilleda—who
was alive,.: nd who..wa. cad:
"Onic," rabid she, "I wa. as young - and
pretty as thou art, before hi - as kidnapped
and buried tinder ground by the knight;
riders, who stole me away from thd very
house which now belongs to thy hither.
iltortly before this thy also seized four
young ladies of these parts, who were of
ten afterwards seen about here (MI their
caparisoned steeds. They were entrapped
and 'carried off in open day by thesemoun
lain knights, as they were coming from
church at Kelba. They made Ine,:is I grew
( older, into the housekeeper, and tintrus
fed inc with the keys of the cellar, ;which
yoe see, I' ill wear."
By this time they kad reached the
cel
lar door, which the old honsekeePer

locked. It eras well laid out with; rocs
of vats and butts. Most of them were
\ -tither quite, or more than half,' fnlh. and
broaching one of them with great -
tetity, she took the little firkin and I filled
it up to the brim. •
,"There," she said, "take tleit • to; your

the knights' wine.
"sly friend, von might mix this ;'with
ten times its body of water, and for
good wine still. Where - can you con=

He resolved to watch ; l and he followed
the daughter as she went,: for about the
fohrteenth time, with her little . firkni,tow- ,
aril the KYflhansen bill. Me hid Mansell',
and saw her conic in the exact way -;from
the old cellar, with berlfirkin quite,i full,
shortly afterwards. Accordingly, I next
evening, he set out himself, having; first
rolled into a little cart one of the" largest
empty barrels he could . find', intending to
fill it with the same precious kind of liquor.
He thought it would be easy to ~ .ccinvey
it down hill ; and.he made a ,vow tO.
turn every night until the cellar hCmime
empty. 'As he tipprbaelied thespot lihere

Alterman Legend.
.A . Roirkantia Irish Girl.
A fine looking, bright
s eyed girl of six
teen Was yesterday placed under the pro
tection of Miss Foster, the matron of the
city prison, whose eitae . presents feature]
of a more than ordinary • character. He;i
name is Bridget Dokey, and her. parenta
still live in ; the city of Dublin, her • native
place. The particulars of her romanti4
career was given by herself, with such an
air of modest truthfulness that no on 4
would wish to questiOn her veracity. Sh 4
stated that when thirteen years of age slid
became acquainted With a worthy young
man, named Kelly, a carpenter,who wish;
ed to marry•her. • Her parents who were
well to do, prudent people, objected 14
the match, because of her youth, and pret
vailed upon the young man to leave the
neighborhood, giving him a "fit-out" .of
*11)0. Ms departure grieved her, and
she determined to follow After the
lapse - of a few months she learned that hd
fnad procured employment on board 4
vessel a's ship's carpenter,. Thither 'she
tepaired as quickly as she obtained thie
means, but only to learn that Kelly's yes{
set had a •few days ptvvietisly sailed for
New York. The damsel was disappoint.
ed, but her desire to see her truant lover •
was not • conqiiered. She immediately
procuted a suit of sailor boy's clothing; I
for Which she discarded her own girlish
attire, and then shipped, undet the name
of Edward Johnson,:as cabin boy, for a
trip to New York, whither she arrived,',,
but still failed to accomplish the purpose]'
she_had undertaken: Friendless, and with
out means,atter she had been here a week'
or two, it became ~ necessary that shel
should obtain employMent, - and, notwith4
standing the hardships to which she hadl
been subjected-on her first voyage, there!
Wawa certain fascination about a sailor's!_
life which induced her to follow it. So,l
for three years, she has been voyaging,
from port to port,tWo otwhich were pass
ed. iu the capacity of cabin boy, and the]
third as.able seaman, l her robust constitu
tied] enabling her to take her "trick at'
the wheel," and performed the duties of .
her lot as well as the best man on board.
During all this time, 'notwithstanding ev
ident refinement of manner not character
istic of an ordinary sailor, and delicacy of
appearance, which ought to.have betray- 1
ed her sex, her secret was never discover
ed. She performed her duties -so well
that her three last voyages have been in
one vessel—the ship Resolute, of the Black
- Ball Line—the captain having pressed her
to remain with nine, and compliMenting
her as a "promising young man." But,
amid all the hardships of her condition
She lost no opportunity of searching for
the Young carpenter, of whom, however,
she has lately lost every trace: On Thurs.
day night, cherishing a hope that she
might encounter him in sume,of the low
saloons in Water Street, which seafaring
men frequent, she determined to explore
them. - Mixing _freely with the unruly
characters there, she found it necessary to,
treat them to liquor. attempt, how
ever, was made to impose on her liberality
which she resisted, and one of the rutrains
made an assault upon her. The discovery
of her sex was then made, and' created
such excitement that the police were *at
tracted by the disorlier which the-Crowd
occasioned. The young sailor girt was
taken to the station house, 'Where she
made apartial statement to the Police
Captain, who Was favorably impressed
,with her ingenious manner, and provided
her with accomodations for .the night.—
Yesterday morning she was arraigned be
fore Justic6-oshorne, who 1 ectured her
upon the impropriety oilier conduct, and
informed her that she had been guilty of
a misdemeanor, at which she semed great

He resolved to anticipate the tyrant, and
disrobe death of his paraphernalia of terror.
AcCordingly, he entered a warm bath, and
opened his veins, composed V;erses jested.
with his familiar associates, and died off
by insensible degrees. Detnocritini, the
laughing, philosopher,. disliked the itie,on
veniences and infirmaties of a protracted
old age,
made up his mind to-die on - a
certain day; but to oblige his sister, he.
postponed his departure until the feasts of
Ceres were over. He supported nature
on a pit of honey to the appointed hour,
and then expired by; arrangement. Je

MONTROBE, I'A.,THURSDAY, SEPTOIBER 5, 1861.
Our Fat . Contributor in the Home
Guard. .
Th 4 moment our flag was threatened,
large bodies, of men were called upon to
rally in its defence. Being a large bod
ied man, I rallied, and: enrolled myself
with the Home Guards. The drill is Very
severe on me this hot weather, although
lam constantly allowed • an attendant
with a fan and a pitcher of ice water.
'I am - constantly reminded that one of
the first requirenients of a soldier is to
thi;ow out his chest and -draw in his atom
ach. Having been. burned out seVeral
times while occupying rooms:in an - attic, I
have had considerable practice in throwing.
out my chest, but by what system - of prac
tice could I ever, hope to draw in my
stomach ? I can't 'dress up'—it's no 'use
. If my vest buttons are in line I
ant far in the rear, and in toe the• ma -k a
fearful bulge indicates my position.
(There is no room for argument to regard
to my sentiments—every body can • see at
a glancejust where I stand.) One. even
ing we had a new drill sergeant who Was
near sighted. Running. his eye down the
line, he exclaimed 'sharply : • •
"What is that man doing in the • ranks
with a bass-drum?"
He pointed at me, but I hadn't any
drum—it was the surplus stomach that I
couldn't draw in.
I am the but of numberless jokes, , as
you may well suppose. They have got.a
story.in, the guards that - when I first heard
the command, "Order.ariffs!",l dropPed
my musket, and taking out my note book
began to draw an order on the Governor
for What arms I Wanted. They say T . , or
dered a Winans steam gull, with 'a pair of ,
Dahigren howitzers for side arms!. liase
fabricators! My ambition never attended
beyond a rifled cannon, and they knew
Although in respect to size I belongi to
the 'heaviest,' my preference is for the I
light iufantry. One evening the Spectii- . 1
tors seemed convulsed about something,
and my eomrads -tittered whenever :My
back. was turned. It was all a mystery to
me until I laid off my knapsack. Some
wretch had erased the final letters,- and I:
hail been parudimfall the . eiening 'l4bel
(ed "light infant!" The above is one of:
;the thousand annoyances to which I am
subject; and nothing but my consuming
ipatriotism could ever induce, me to • sub
imit to it. I rallied at the „call of my
itcountry, and am not to be pat out by the
11ra/tying of my comrades.
I overheard a Spectator inquire of the
drill sergeant one day:
"Do - von drill the. whole ofhim at once?"
, "N 0.7 he returned in an awful whisper,
Hi drill Aim by rlTtris !" •
I weuld-have drilled him.if I4iad a hay-

Specifications have.

advertised tor. The making will be. let
but tithe lowest responsible' bidder. In
case the guards are ordered to,take the-
;field,a special commissiary will be de
tailed to supply my
_rations. That re.
Mi n ds me of a harrowing ,incident. On
last drill night, an old farmer,who dropp—
iid in to see us drill, took me aside.,and
Said he wanted, to sell rite a yoke of pew
rful - oxen. • .
"My ancient agriculturist, said I,
amil
ing at his simplicity, "I have no use for
oxen." -
"Perhaps not• at present," quoth be,
'lnit Wynn go.to waron will want them:'

i 6 a neat and appropriate speech,: 'when a

in the evening paper. Ile said they kept

Who Is-i Rebel.
IThe Berne:i t , Post has, the following:
"WhoeVer,therefore,talks of peace short
of such a peace as acknowledges Mayan&
it yof our constitution and the • duty of
obedience' to the laws, is a • rebeL lie
edunsels submission to the revolters, 'and
Itheir agent. Whoever raises the white
Mc , raises the secessiOntag, and must as
certainly expect that it will be pulled
dOwn. by an indignant multitude, as if it
had the emblem of seeession glaringly disk
played on its folds. - Whatever press in
sists that the government shall submit to
tine rebels, and abdicate the powers which
the people have confided to: it, is both
reel and anarchist, and renounces the
prOtection ofthe laws."
We have not one word to say against
this view of the - ease, but, upon the
miry, approve it heartily. We have
soinethiiig, however, to add to:what: the
Pdst says.. Whoever is against the Con- -
stiintion of the United 'States in whole
and in part, in spiritor in letter is a rebel.
Whoever is against any of the l i tiws of the
goi-ernmerit, whether they relate to
Live slaves or to• freeinen, is a. rebel. -
-Whoever insists that - a law - of Conftress
can be violated any More in New York or
Massachusetts- than id tfOuth Carolina, or,
Alabamy, is a rebel. Let ns make clear,
eleim work of our loyalty, and apply to it
the rigid rule that he who offends in one
point offendsin all.• .

It id the duty orthe citizen ,
to render

every right law, established by the execu
tive, legislative and judicial authority,
constitutionally embodied, as the Govern
ment-of the United States.• There is no ,
clearer implied power : than that such a I
government, for the purpose ofsustaining
the rights of all under it, and for the pur
pose,of enabling it to act for the good and I

,which springs from honest motives ;'s gen
uine:- That which, is : actuated by yen
geapee- hatred, malice and corruption is
bogus., We see both kinds' around us,
and we regret to be compelled to admit
that the counterfeit largely predominates.
"Patriotism must be founded in great
l'prieep es and supterted by great vir
tues." Patriotis m is pure, unselfish, hon
est lov :1
of country; closely allied to love,
generosity, virtue,-affection, iategrity,and
that trite religion, which, " loving ' God l
od
"with all its heart," therefore "loves its
, neighbOr as itself'," Like "charity, is not
I a sounding brass nor a tinkling symbol--;
vaunteth not itself is not Ldled' up, re
joiceth lot .in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the
truth.' Patriotism has been called that
rulingpassion, " love of-country , an 'amal
gamated multitude of the noblest syinpa
thies o brethren's hearts." • -

We spiv Patriotism is only genuine when
actuated : . by the sympathetic heart of
brothers ; and we present this a a test,
by whith each one maymea:sure - the gen
umeneq, of it's own love of country.

lastrefui of a scoundrel.", ,From this it
seems that the practice of Venality, and

is the fashion in ours. - Who are the men
