A Tragical Tala ol‘ flettysbni'Sr.
OnCa on a time, on a summer (lay,
Not a greet while ego, nor far away,
iU the place whore the scone or my story lies
Ton might have dlpcoror’d, hy using your eyes,
A little old woman quietly sitting
All hy herself in a eottage knitting.
No, not all alono; for there was the eat,
/Close by her foot, on the corn-husk mat;
/’Anil the old dog, lazily winking Ills oyos
• To ohnso from tlieir lids tlio bothersome files,
’ I,ay on bis paws at the open door;
The ohiokous—tlioro must have boon u score—
• Cacao close to his noao. Abroad was heard
' The chirp of cricket and coo of bird,,
.. And a little noise when tlio leaves wero stlrr’d;
For the lift of Nature was all In tune
• With tho quiet and warmth of summer noon. .
• >Twns nn ominous calm—to bo broken soon,
' jty a storm more fierce than tlio droad simoon 5
For two great armies silently came
•Close to tho cot of the dear old dame,
•One in blue and tho other in gray—
■ The i'ato of a mighty nation lay
Cn tho chances or war tliat summer day. :
Tlio fife was mum,
And no tap «r drum
Told what had come.
The cavalry men
Trooped down the glen.
Up on tho mound,
Tlio cannon found
Their favorite ground.
Down by the run
Lurked a monstrous gun.
This army in blue and that one in gray,
Wore getting ready each other to slay,
milo the little old woman was knitting away 1
The pickets began It—pop, pop, pop, pop 1
Tho old dame heard them but couldn’t stop,
She was rounding the heel, and that, you know,
Is nicer than narrowing off the too ;
She mas! keep count of the stitches, and so
She made her lingers faster go—
Holding hor breath,
. : Half scared to death—
Hair scared to death—but she couldn't stop 1
As the scattering pickets pop, pop, pop,
To a steady volley of musketry grow,
The old dame’s fingers the faster ilew.
Faster and faster—nor long before
The rifles wore drowned in the great gun T s roar—
What with the bother of rounding tho heel,
And the dread of tlio cannon’s peal on peal,
She was so bewildered she didn't know
Whether to stay, or where she should go—
So she sat in hor chair,
With a vacant stare,
Swinging her gra&head to and fro,
Knitting away In a terrible trance,
"With, a pinched and a pallid countenance 1 ■
IV.
Over tho fields—hy the tangled screen
Of a narrow laurel-lined ravine—
Down by the stream—and on the hill—
At the great stone fence—and the old stone mill,
There was wild work doing that summer day,
For a iiiougand brave men lifeless lay—
Fell downward, clasping the bloody sod,
Or with dead eyes looking up to God!
There was one young boy in a suit of blue,,
With his tender bosom shot through and through.
A pitiful sight! Oil! let us pray—
No rebel took aim at him that day,
But by mischance,
'Some shot did glance,: ; \
Or a careless bullet went wide astray.
Oh let us believe that his fate was blest,
For ho lay as an infant lies at rest;
His white hands clasped o’er his wounded breast ;
With a smile on his lip—and the light on his brow,
God 1 could bis mother but see him now I
Over the stream, past the laurel bloom,
A thousand traitors bad met their doom.
There, all in his elegant suit of gray,
A mortally wounded general lay—
Plucked by the nation out of the dust,
And raised to peaces of power and trust, -
Nourished and fed by her loving hand,
Sworn donbly in her defence to stand,
He was the first of the faithless band
Who struck at the life of their native land,
Making of kn ighthood their empty boast,
With sacred oath,
And plighted troth,
And every chivalric virtue lost! *
Among his ignorant dupes he lay,
And as his life-blood ebbed away
Through his flamed eyeballs* gathering gloom,
What vision he saw of judgment doom
I shall not tell; but the mortal dread -
Of that moment fixed in the face oft he dead
Makes horrid the lips, the eyes, the brow—
God! could all traitors see him now I ..
■. tl _ : . .. .
The battle still nearer and nearer came, ;
To the cot of the dear old knitting dame,
The great guns made a terrible sound,
And the bullets were flying thickly around*
The little birds had no business where
Whirled fiery shells that sang in the air,
So they hid away in a precious scare j
The rabbits started from under the vines,
Han plump into the enemy’s lines j
The dog at first didn’t mind it much,
Hut soon ran howling into his hutch; . r
And plumed and spurred "Sir Chantcleer,
Droopod his feathers in craven fear ;
Why, even the cat—
Just think of that! .
When the bullets were flying around like hail,
And she found that it was of ho avail
To put up her back and stiffen her tail— ;
Withdrew in rather a hurried way
To the cellar. She wasn’t afraid to stay,
Ho more than the colonels who go to the real,
In the heat of battle, are moved by fear ;
They mean, of course, to come baek again,- *
When they’ve looked “ after rations for the men.”
", ' TII. ’
The tranced dame at the setting of the sun ;
Had rounded the heel—and the foot was done
f Nor fast nor slow,
Her fingers go
Steadily on in the way they know,
And were just beginning to narrow the toe—
When Suddenly stocking, needles, and all
Were shot away by a four-pound ball! ,
The dame didn’t mind it afc all, at all.
And still she satin the twilight gray, .
Scared to death, as one might say,
"With her absent fingers knitting away I.
And there she’d have been till the present day
Had not a tall artillery man,
Grizzled with smoke and brown with tan, '
With a voice as loud as his cannon’s roar,
Bounced suddenly in at the open door!
And before she had time for new alarms,
The dear old creature was fast in his s arms,'
And kissed and pressed
To his brave young breast, • .. .
Hear reader, you surely can guess the rest.

an incident of the wab.
Unknown he died! without a friend
« Whose tender love might sweetly send
Sftmc rays of sunshine o’er the gloom
That gathers round the lonely tomb.
He died I—immured In prison—where
Disease and famine fill the air
'With darts more terrible by far
Than Parthians ever threw in wajv
Unknown he died f while oft, perchance,
His memory turned with mournful glance
Upon the brilliant days of yore,
"Whenpeace and plenty crowned our shore? -
"When with the loved at home he dwelt,
And at the family .altar knelt i
Or solemn temples humbly trod,
And gave his heart’s best love to God 1
Unknown he died! while treason’s hate
'O’er his death-sorrows grew elate $ .
And bitter curse and scoff it threw—
,Tili o’er his brow the damp death dew
Came stealing on, and eyes grew dim,
And cursing foes were lost to him,
Ab gatesdf pearl broke on his sight,
And seraphs bore him home to light !
Unknown he died! while o’er his bier
No mother shed tho anguished tear,
No wife’s last kiss his cheek impressed,
No children followed him to rest ;
But in some lonely potter’s field—
■ Sole boon to patriots treason yields—
Hla fbrm was placed beneath the sod,
"Watched over by a faithful God.
Yet what if all unknown he died;
Nor friendly hand his wants supplied,
Nor loving smile, nor gentle vrord,
His lonely heart like music stirred 1
What if upon his deaf f ning ear
: Fell horrid curse instead of cheer?
Nor child, nor wife, nor mother wept
Above the bier in which he slept ?
“What if the gTanito dome of fame
/Recordeth not h!s humble name,

The MetiNU ring Worm.
To the Editor of The Press:
■Sat: A short time since your paporcontained seve
ral articles relative to the destruction of the measur
ing worm ; among them was one suggesting'tho de
struction of the millers by means,or bonfires, which
method is considered by many .persons as feasible.
Now, inasmuch as the time has arrived when the
«ni!!ers are flying about the streets, cannot some
means be employed for their destruction 1 Now is
the tlmei for action. If do not wish to see our
handsome shado trees ornamented with worms next
spring, we must destroy the millers before they lay
their eggs the beet manner to remedy
the effect Is to destroy, the cause. Hoping and
trusting that energy will be employed in tho matter,

arrival of a united states steamer.
_The United States steamer Chippewa, Acting
Volunteer Lieutenant A. W. Weaver commanding,
arrived off the Navy Yard on Sunday evening, from
Port Royal, which place she left on the 11th instant.
Her hull and machinery are to undergo repairs. On
the 12th instant she encountered a severe gale from
the northeast, 1 which' lasted throe days. On the
13th instant she put into Beaufort, North Carolina,
for coal. The Chippewa reports having seen on Sa
turday a ship off Cape Hcnlopen coining in ; also,
two barks and four brigs in the bay, all bound up.
The monitor Manhattan, which put Into this
port last week for repairs, has sailed for her destina
tion, under convoy of the United States steamer
Bienville. - The James Adger and several other
steamers arc under sailing orders, arid will sail for
their future field of operations in a few days. The
frigate Ironsides is expected tip within a week or
two.
v .MISCELLANEOUS.;
TBE CITT RAILWAY EXTORTION.
It seems that the rise in the price of fare is one of
that kind oi movements that won’t work both ways.
The directors are willing to gulp all the money
down that comes within reach, but are loth to
disgorge to persons who are justly entitled to it. It
3s said that the drivers on the Thirteenth and
Fifteenth-streets Hallway peremptorily refused to
work yesterday for less than $1.75 per day. They
hare been receiving $1.50. The company refused to
make the required advance, and a strike was the;
consequence. Early in the day only six cars were
running. Five conductors and a new driver were
induced to drive yesterday. One of the conductors
was discharged for refusing to drive.
It is well known that this line:is doing a first-rate
business. -Drivers are often on duty eighteen hours
out of the twenty-four, and, in case of the detention
of trains, they arc sometimes on duty twenty-three
hours, in which case they receive but $1.65. . . .
Conduct such as this is to be expected from those
who, in the face of declaring large dividends, can
come forward uublushingly and ask for an increase ■
of fare from their patrons. •
/ . ARTS, .TRADES, Ann
Philadelphia is proverbial for its arts, trades, and
manufactures, and particularly in the manufacture
of fancy soaps and perfumery. Somewhere near a
quarter of a century since E, Roussell started the
business of a perfumer and fancy soap maker, and
soon arose to eminence, gradually subsiding into the
mineral water business, at which he has made a
fortune. X. Bazin succeeded Mr. R. in the business :
of fancy soap making, extracts, and perfumes, and
his name now may be seen, not only on every lady’s
toilet table in Philadelphia, but in the metropolis of
New York and many other parts of the country
and even in France and England. We claim for
the city of Philadelphia a proud pre-eminence for
its manufacture of such articles as Mr. Bazin issues,
in large quantities every day, from his laboratory
on Cherry street, near Ninth. So extensively has his
business increased within the past few years, that,
to rqeet the emergency, he was compelled to make
an extension of his works.
.A fine four-story addition to his manufactory has
been completed in the rear of Cherry street, below
Ninth, and.yesterday afternoon it was duly dedi
cated to the purpose for which it is intended. The
structure is built in the most substantial manner.
The first story is appropriated to-packing antf soap- ,
boiling, the second story for grinding soap and
pressing, the third story tor extracts, and the fourth
story as a store-room for the handsome glassware
used in the business. The press of Philadelphia
was well represented yesterday afternoon. There
were also m attendance a large number of distin
guislied gentlemen, who feel an Interest in the
general success of Philadelphia manufactures. The
party made a tour of the extensive establishment,
and were.close observers ofthe mode or producing
those articles so essential to tho comfort of mau
kind, and so much in use by the ladies and gentle
men of America.
A summer collation was served up, and the cool
refreshing luxuries and delicacies spread upon the
festive board were > arranged in an artistic and
tempting style. It may be needless to say, the party
enjoyed the things set before them by the bountiful
hand of Mr. Bazin. The work of making fancy soap
aßd perfumery is derived In the first place from
steam-power, there being a beautiful ten-horse
power engine in the first lower story. The boilers
are frequently examined, and every care is used to
prevent accident. •

week has been active, and sales have been very large,
at prices ranging from 44 to. 46# cents for crude •

POLICE HEX SUSP ENDED.
Yesterday Officer Samuel Brown was suspended
for ten days by Mayor Henry, for ejecting a mer
chant from a West Philadelphia passenger railroad
car. The conductor of the car refused to change a
ten-cent note, and stopping the car, ordered the offi
cer to put him out. The officer complied, and has
received his reward for his extra offieiousness. A
few days ago a lady with an infant in her arms was
ordered out of a car on this route, because the con
ductor could not change a twenty-fivo-cent note!
Mayor Henry Is an eminent lawyer, and in suspend
ing the officer, he was simply maintaining tt'sound
principle of law. The conductor had no right to
call upon an officer to lay violent hands ona citizen.
Officers should remember they belong to the public
and not to any simple, brutal or ignorant conductor.
