As THY DAY IS, SO SHALT,

BY ARTIIUII
[Written for The Press.]
Wail — The very' word soot a shudder to the
of Mrs. Irwin. From a child up, it had been
associated in her mind with all that was horrible
and wicked. To become a soldier; seemed, to her
perception of the case, to involve a cruel instinct.
no saw no glory in the profession of arms. Toy
dimes and swords were never seen in the hands of
her ohildren,•except through the unwelcome agen
cy aunts, uncles, or friends ; and they were, in
these oases, anon removed, with sober homilies oh
their bad significanoe.
"swill teach my children," she would say, "to
' love their enemies; not to bate and destroy them.
To be ever on the side of peace and good-will to
mankind ; not on the aide of hatred and destruc
tion."
Mrs. Irwin read, tracts and books published by
'peace societies, and in the argument against war
crowded her mind with fade, statistics and reasons
to a degree that Wade her a formidable debater on
the non-combative question, with almost every one
that happened to be drawn into an argument.
.It
was useless to talk With her shoat the undying an
tagonism between geed and evil, and the necessity
of extern' as well as internal combats; of national
regeneration through the baptism of blood; of sets-
NO peace only through the destruction of enemies.
She denied the positions. , All wars were wrong,
she contended, and might be avoided.
Not in anything bad Mrs. Irwin swerved from
her peace principles, up to the period when Sump
ter fell. But that event was like throwing, sudden
ly, into a strong, smooth current, a broad obstruc
tion. Her whole being was in a tumult. 'She
Ought - for breath like one in danger of suffocation.
She felt as though the firm foundations on which
she had been standing for years, were crumbling
• under her feet. Mrs. Irwin loved her country and
- revered its flag; and this aesaidt'upon the one, and
desecration of the other, fired her 'soul with inditg
'nation; and when her oldest' boy, not yet in his
twenty-first year, said to her with clenched hands
'and flashing eyes,
"-Mother, this must be avenged !—"
' She did not answer, but eat, with pale Ups and
'false, looking at him in such trouble and bewilder
ment of mind that no thoughts became coherent
enough for words, until he added, as he drow.lais
slender form to its utmost height—
" And there is one ready."
"John ! John !" fell in weak remonstrance from
Mrs. Irwin. "Don't speak so! don't lot 'a mur
oderons spirit bear you away."
4, Don't say murderous," replied the boy, with so
much of rebuke in his tenet that hie niothbr en
deared quickly— -
" A spirit of revenge, then, John. Vengeance
is mine, saith tho Lord, mid I will repay it." •
"Mother ! shall we tamely submit to see this
nation destroyed, and its flag, which has been ho
nored throughout-the World for nighty years, shot
at, rent, and trampled upon ?" The boy's eyes
-gleamed fiercely. " For ono, I say no ! And I
have mistaken my mother's heart, if it doci not
echo beck the word. J de not forget the lesson you
taught me years ago, that love of country is next to
love of God. And if we love an object purely, will
we not defend it when assailed? Nay, even lay
down our lives in its protection?"
In spite of all her peace principles, and horror of
war, there flowed into the mind of Mrs. Irwin such
a feeling of admiration for this outspokonfpatrietism
of her son, that oven lie read pride and approval in
her humid eyes.
cc War is an awful thing, John," said Mrs. Irwin.
• "I snow it is, mother. But, there are worse
things JIMA, war; and that worse thing is at our
door. You understand this as well as I do. They
have thrown down the gouge of war, and there is
nothing left for us but to accept the hard necessity."
"But you ere not called to this work, John,"
said Mrs. Irwin, the words faltering onlier tongue.
" There are strong men enough who will respond
to the President's call. I cannot let you go, my
son." The wet oyes of Mrs. Irwin overflowed.
John laid his hands firmly on his mother's shout
dere, and looked steadily into her face. Then be
kissed her tenderly. " For the blessings we enjoy,
did not the mothers of the Revolution give their
sons to the battle field?"
"I cannot bear it, my son! lam not strong
enough for this." And Mrs. Irwin laid her fees
on the breist of her boy, and wept shudderingly.
"As our day is, so shall our strength be, mother.
Don't you believe this?"
. 4, 1 do, John," answered Mrs. Irwin, lifting her
face, and through half blinding tears, looking at
him wonderingly. Nay, more than wonderingly ;
with a rising glow of pride in her heart. Every
woman admit es courage in a men ; and the tree
mother loves it in her son. A new sentiment was
taking force in the mind of Mrs. Irwin, and giving
strength for duty and for sacrifice She seemed to
herself like one undergoing a quick transformation.
New ideas and new estimate of things were press
ing upon her, and thrusting old forms of thought
aside. "I do my son," she repeated, "but I
never thought to see this day." 0
"The day has come upon us," replied the young
man, '+ and shall we not be equal to its demand?
am ready, and you are ready also !"
He spoke in a quick, inspiriting voles, for he saw
strength in the eyes of his mother, and a gathering
- aboufher mouth.
- Only a Jittle_whilesinacose_weaskse-sseless....sse,-
Hind of Mrs. Irwin ; only a little while longer did
old prejudices and foregone conclusions battle with
new convictions; only a little while longer did
ebrinking natural fear stand in the way of duty.
A week later, and Mrs Irwin held the hand of - II
her, eon in parting. How changed he was! Ina
single weeks, he had seemed to grow older by years.
The firmly knit mouth; the deep, steady eyes; the
finely erect figure; the already browning face, for
be bad been drilling in the open air for days ; the
brave, resolute bearing, were all wonderful to look
upon as the work of so brief a time. Is it strange
that Mrs. Irwin was proud of her soldier boy? She
held his hand in parting.
"Do your duty, John," she said, in no weakness
of tone.
"I will, mother."
"Bo brave."'
"I will never turn my back upon the enemy."
4, God bless you and keep you, my son !" Mrs.
Irwin's eyes filled now, and her woman's heart
trembled in her voice.
- tt I shall be in His hands, just the same, mother.'
'"I know it, John; and if death comes to you—"
Mrs. Irwin broke down. She could not finish
the sentence.
"It win be through His permission. Are not
even the sparrows in His-keeping?" said John,
calmly. "How much more human souls."
They parted. Very pale for all of that day and
the next, wee Mrs. Irwin. But her bearing was
firm. If her heart was troubled, it was not weak.
Slot was a wonder to herself.
"Truly, it is so," she would repeat over and over
-.Agate, in her thought "as our day is, so shall our
strength be."
~
To en intimate filtend she said,
"I sometimes ask myself if I am not dreatiiing.
Can it be possible that my boy is a soldier, and in
face of the enemy; and that he is there with my
consent?"
"Would you have him back?" asked the friend.
A quick change, as of surprise, was seen for a
moment in the face of Mrs. Irwin; then she an
ewered,
"No; I yield him to his country."
"He looked so bravo and manly," said the
friend.
A glow of pride same into the mother's face.
"And seemed," was added, "to comprehend se
clearly the Issues at stake. It was no murderous
thirst for blood ; no love of excitement and change
that filled his heart; but that true patriotism which
is the inspiration of an honorable mind, and gives
it the courage to meet death In defence of Country
and Right. I honor you, my friend, in being the
mother of such a sou."
Mow strangely pleasurable were the pulses that
leaped away from the heart of Mrs. Irwin. This
praise of her son was very sweet.
Weeks passed. With what an absorbing interest
did Mee. Irwin watch the progress of events. Onco,
she turned with an instinctive repugnance from all
accounts of military movements and battles ; but
now she bad sue taste for anything else. The whole
country watt spread out, like a map, in her mind,
and;every strategio point, with its camps and sol
dierestronedy marked. The marshalling of troops;
their Movements, strength, and positions, wore new
familiar things; and her heart beat high with plea
sure at every trifling success, or veiled itself with
shadows when even the smallest reverse was sus
tained. With what an irrepressibleimpatience did
she leek for the regularly coming letters from her
son; and with what a proud satisfaction did she
read every detail of his new life that showed cou
rage, endurance, and self-denial! She felt that ho
was a Wile soldier, anti therefore she was very, very
proud of him. -
Then news came that the regiment in which her
son watt serving had made an advance upon the
enemy's lines; that some severe skirmishing had
taken "place, and that an engagement was imminent.
A sudden fear shook the nerves of Mrs. Irwin.
Even as she read orthe advance, a bloody battle
might bo going on, and her son be among the dead
-or dying. The hours of sleepless suspense that went
by until the news of a victory Was fleshed over the
-country, we will not venture to desoribe. -Many were
killed and many wounded. Withe'sreathless eager
, nese she devoured their names, as with white lips
-and starting eyes, she bent over the brief deapatehea.
'What is this? Her son's name! The paper shivers
In her heads. - She cannot read the paragraph.
Peeperately she thrusts the sheet down upon a ta
blet° bold it firmly': but a mist comes over her
elea; , she does not make out the words. Killed or
"Oh; God ! Give me strength!"
The dimness plums end she roads:
"Among the bravemen who distinguished them
selves, private John Irwin deserves honorable men
tion.' In a desperate assault of the rebels, the cap
tain nf his company received a severe wound, and
fell Upon the ground, Ile was a few paces in ad
vance of his men, and mite fell, two of the enemy
sprang forward to bayonet him. Irwin, seeing
thissfiung himself before his prostrate captain, shot
one of the men, and iu a hand-to•hand encounter
disabled the other. He then bore the, wounded
officer from the field. baring the whole fight, this
young man, who is not twenty-one years of age,
conducted himself with the coolest courage, and in
more than one instance 'rallied his failing comrades.
He has the stuff of whioh officers are made, and
the Department should send him a commission."
Mrs. Irwin bowed down, with her face upon the
table, trembling in every nerve; weak—in glad be
wilderment—tearful. Then dropping upon her
knees, with clasped hands and eyes uplifted, oho
said, faintly—
" 0, Lord, is he not Thine?"
A deep peace fell upon her spirit, and she re
mained for some time kneeling. But prayer formed
itself in no other words. •
"•I could not stay away from you after reading
the news this morning. ) ! , A friend said this as she
Caine in, a little while afterwards. "Are you not
a proud woman today, Mrs. Irwin ?"
"I feel glad and bumble," was the subdued an
swer.
"But did ho not aot nobly? Who would have
thought that in your quiet, retiring boy, there was
ouch a daring spirit ?"
"It does not seem as if it wore my son who has
been so brave," said the mother. "The not has,
apparently removed him to a distance, and setitsolf
up as a question of right against me. • Ile is not
mine, in the sense I have hitherto regarded him.
Bighor duties than those of a son are laid upon
him; and I must give him to his country in a de-
gree not •understood when he went forth at his (mum
try's call. I pray, now, that God will make him
equal to his duty under all circumstances. To
lose him would be a fearful thing; but, to find him
a weak coward in the day of battle, would be more
fearful still."
"Td hear such words from your lips! Prom
whence has some this new spirit?—thia now con•
rage?"
"As our day is, so shall our strength be," replied
Mrs. Irwin. "God gives the spirit of endurance
and self-sacrifice when we have need of it ; and this
is our time of need. Ido not flatter myself with
the hope that my heart and home will be spared—
that my boy will pass unscathed in the ordeal of
battle. But, come what will, I trust in God ; and. Ile
will lay no sorrow upon my heart too heavy to bear.
If I bad ten eons, feeling as I now do, I would give
them all for this contest, and send them forth, in
God's name."
And to thousands of mothers' hearts, strength
and a spirit of self-sacrifice have come in this time of
trial, as it came to the heart of Mrs. Irwin ; awl
like her, their souls are in the cause, and their
bravo hearts giving courage and endurance to tens
of thousands of brave eons now battling for right
and their country. It is the old spirit of the Revo
lution, and by virtue of its seared fires our armies
roust prevail.
Specie Payments
(For The Press.]
The country is abundantly supplied with
specie, which has circulated freely. There
fore, the cessation by the banks to pay specie,
as they engaged, for their notes, is unjusti
fiable. They promised to do so, and ought to
be held to their promise, which those in this
city can do, as, by their published statements,
they have about two dollars in specie for every
dollar of their circulation. They have no right
to inquire what disposition the payees intend
to make of the money, even if every outstand
ing note were brought to their counters to bo
cashed. Very soon after it is understood
that this will be done, there would cease to be
a rush upon them, and their notes would pass
from band to hand as cash.
The banks may create a flow of specie into
their coffers to meet their outlay sufficiently to
keep up its circulation by a simple expedient.
Let them require a percentage, say ten or
fifteen per cent., to be paid in specie when a
note discounted is paid in full or in part. This
would keep the specie moving, and enable the
banks to pay their own notes.
No doubt the notes they hand to the bor
rowers on the discounted papers will, in great
part, come in, and specie required; but this
difficulty can be met by a rule, marked on
their issue, that only , a like 10 or 15 per cent.
'of Specie will be paid on their notes issued
after the date of the commencement of this
system; they have no right to refuse specie
for every note now out. Thus, the suspension
would be little felt, and would soon cease. If
the specie wherewith to pay the bank costs
the borrower a premium, it would be nothing
compared to what ho would be obliged to pay,
Or allow, if he sold his promissory note in
market.
The same policy of requiring specie, by the
Government, and paying it out, would main
tain the currency, provided it adheres to the
sub-treasury system. This last act of the
banks proves, if proof were wanting, that they
aro unfit depositories of the public money.
It will be objected that the depositors have
a claim to have their deposits repaid in specie.
If they deposited specie, they have a right to
it; if not, they have no right to demand funds
different from those they deposited.

Preparations are being made at the Palace of
the Tuileries for the official receptions on the let
of January. Great difficulty has been experienced
in fitting up the apartments in consequence of the
repairs now going forward. As it was found to bo
impossible to receive_lhe .th."..'... -- .." -
-41.—rhatorsrulifitd In one day, it has been doter
mined to continue the receptions for two days. It
is calculated that it will require three years to
complete the repairs now in progress at the palace.
The expense is estimated at 40,000,000 E, comprising
the interior decorations, which must be all re
newed. The palace will, consequently, not ho
habitable next year. The Court will, then, estab
lish itself at the Elysbo, which is now nearly ready
for its reception. The Emperor frequently inspects
the works in progress at the Elyseo, and the Em-
I press goes'tbere very often to see the fitting up of
the apartments intended for her and for the Prince
Imperial.
MANUAL LABOR AS DEFINED BY LAW.—At the
Paris Criminal Court, the other day, a juryman,
named Da Costa, begged to be excused from eery
ing, on the ground that he was the (thief of the
claque (or hired band of applauders) at the Ambigu
Comique Theatre. M. Oscar do Yahoo, advocate
general, questioned this claim to exemption, and
observed that M. Da Costa's duties only required
his presence at the theatre in the evening. To this
argument, however, the latter replied that he was
obliged to attend rehearsals, in order to know what
passages were to bo applauded, and the court ulti
mately held that the occupation of dapping hands
at a theatre was essentially '• manual" labor, with
in the meaning of a law of 1853, regulating the
composition of juries M. Da Costa was therefore
struck out of the panel.
AN AUSTRIAN BRIDE'S OUTFIT.--The Austrian
Gazette states that Baron de Sins, whose daughter
is to be married, in January next, to Prince
Ypsilanti; has ordered that the wedding outfit of
the bride shall only consist of articles either manu
factured or purchased in the Austrian Empire In
order to give an idea of this outfit, it will suffice to
y that fifty women have been exclusively em
ployed during the last three months - in making the
body linen of the bride cleat.
THE Prussian Government - has made fresh pro
posals with reference to the conolusion of a treaty of
commerce between France axd the Zollverein.
THE population of Berlin, according to the last
census, amounted to 530,269 souls. In 1858 it was
only 468,912.-
Tux SUCCESSION TO THE THRONE OP SWEDEN.—
A letter from Stockholm, dated the 12th inst., says:
The King will, it is said, at the next Diet, have a
bill presented, in virtue of which the succession to
the throne may belong to the female line when
the deceased King has no direct male heir or
brother fit to succeed him, as took .place with
Queen Christina, daughter of King Gustavus Adol
phus. If such a bill is voted, tho Princess Louisa,
only child of King Charles XV., will summed her
father. This modification of the logislationrelative
to the succession to the throne has for its object to
realize the Scandinavian union, by means of a mar
riage between the eldest son of the Prince of Den
mark and the Princess Louisa of Sweden. In that
eventuality the Duke of Ostgothlind, brother of
King Charles XV., who is the zealous partisan of
the Scandinavian union, will renounce the succes
sion to the`throne of Sweden for himself and his
heirs. The Princess Louisa is now twelve years of
age."
Cum.—The Emperor of China was expected to
leave Zehol on the 26th of- Oetobor, in order to
formally receive his father's romaine. But few
foreigners have been invited to rhe•oapital. In
conseqUence of a recommendation from Prince
Hung. the Chinese authorities appear desirous of
receiving European counsel. This is expected to
exercise a favorable Influence on the relations be
tween the Chinese Government and the foreign
Powers.
FORM! FORM! RIFLEMEN, Fonu!—Below wo
have a now edition (with alterations) of the British
laureate's war poem, addressed to "'our faithful
ally,!'.whon Napoleon's cannons at Brest and Cha
lons were grinning with foul intent across the Straits
to Ddver and Aldershott. Some liberties have been
taken with Tennyson's last stanza in order to adapt
them to circumstances:
There is a sound of thunder afar,
Storm In the East and darkens the day
Storm of battle and thunder of war—
Well If it do not roll our way!
Form ! form ! Riflemen, form !
Reedy, be ready to meet the storm !
Riflemen! Riflemen! Riflemen, form!
Be not deaf to the sound that warns—
Be not gulled by a despot's plea;
Are figs of thistles, or grapes of thorns '1
How should n despot set men free'!
Form ! form ! Riflemen, form !
Ready, he ready to meet the storm !
Riflemen! Riflemen! Riflemen, form!
Lot polities for a moment go—
Look to your guns, and take good aim !
Better as freemen to file, you know,
Than yield to a tyrant's sword and flame
Form! form! Riflemen, form !
Ready, be ready to meet the storm!
Riflemen! Riflemen! Riflemen, form
Form in the field alth a wild hurrah !
Form in (!ad's name, rank and tile!;
John Ball sheds tears for slaver, but ah !
The devil knows he's a crocodile!
Form! form ! Riflemen. form !
'Muir, be ready to meet the storm!
Riflemen !Riflemen! Riflemen, form!
The Charleston .117ertnry recommends the shoot
ing of slaves who refuse to follow their roasters.
That would be constitutional, we suppose. These
rebels ere great sticklers for constitutions.
General Buckner is reported to bavo said recent
ly that be is "between bell and damnation." Wo
guess that, like an awkward teamster driving
through a gate, be will hit both sides.

Oil, is entirely obviated by the use of our CAPSULES.
