Where . the wild winds moan, and mad waves roar, `Where the storm-birds shriek and sea-gulls cry Aa'they dip the wave or sail, on high? I'd hop'd to die in my mother's cot, 'And lie: at rest—oh, hallowed spot! • In the Village kirk-yard sweet and green, On the moss-clad bank of singing stream. Where the shadows cool at evening fall From the willow-boughs and ivied. wall Of the moss-crowned kirk, whose tiny spire Gleams in the sun like a flame of fire. Wnere the tall grass waves to the zephyr free Like the bright breast of a fairie sea ' And the wild bird trills its mournful lay O'er the graves of lov'd ones pass'd away, I'd fondly dreaad that my lowly tomb Should bs deck' d with flowers of sweetperfume; I'd cherlsh'd the hope that a sister dear Should beddew my grave with affection's tear.

Captain Fowler, of the Sixth Michigan regi ment, came, up last, night from the Eastern Shore of Yirgtnia, bringinr , with him as a pris oner, Col. B. T. Gunter, of, ACcomac county. Col. G. was Coininonwealth's . Attorney of Ac comae, audi, Colonel of militia. Some time since he went to Richmond, and recently ran the block ade. As he was very defiant, and seemed dispos ed to excite new : trouble in the county, Gen. Lock- Wood thought it expedient to send him to Geu. Dig. He has been sent to Fort McHenry. Four or five others had recently returned from Richmond, and had, been retained in custody by Gen. Lockwood. , Affairs remained quiet M both Ac comae and Northampton comities. All the arms in the possession of the militarrhad been secured, and it was believed the people. would :tioll attempt any .new demonstration. The bee- Ond•Delaware Begiment and Purnell's Mary land Legain were, still stationed near Eastville. Nim's Boston Battery was. .on .return, and may be expected here today.—Bait.• American. 'LADIES' HEALTH.—In an article in preserving health •in G-ocky's Lady's Bbok, says there are two faults characteristic of :American women, one to negleet to exercise and the other a too thin style of dress in winter. ' Every female, who can possiblyr do it,' ought 'to walk in the °ilk air mom one to'two hours every day. If suitable clothing was worn, and especially if the feet were propeily protected, a daily walk, even in winter, would be more conducive to health and loveliness than all the panaceas ever con cocted, or all the drugs prescribed' y the facul ty. It would give elasticity to the step, bloom to the cheidt-, brilliancy to the eyei'gay spirits, brightne'ss , of intellect, sound alturmers i every blessing, in short, that vigorous physical health bestows, and of which, alas, so many- American women practically know nothing. Vitality would be strong and high, the definition of which in most cases is the beginning of con sumption. 'rhe lungs, too, would haVe needful play, for no one can go out, on a bracing winter morning, without imitating the lungs fully; and the air at such times is always this purest. If you would escape pulmonary complaints, ladies, if you would live to a good old age, if you would enjoy life while living, if you would add to your personal charms, dress:warm and dry, and take daily exercise in the open Mr. Let nothing keep you:in doors but inclement weather ; but be always clothed to defy cold and wet, especi ally tb your feet. The same writer also gives these reasons why ladies should read newspapers: It is a great mistake in female education to keep a young lady's time and attention devoted to only the• fashionable literature of the day.• If you would quality her for conversation, you:must give her something to talk about—give her education with the actual world and its transpiring events. Urge her to read the newspapers and Decome tamiliar with the:present character aud improve. ment of- our race. History is oi some import ante; but the past'world is dead, and we have nothing to do with it. Our thoughts and our concerns should be for- the present world, to know what it is, and improve the condition ot it. Let:her have an intelligent opinion, and be able to sustain au:intelligent conversation con cerning the mental, mora4, political and reli gious improvement of our times. Let the gil ded annuals and poems on the centre-table be kept apart of the time covered ' with weekly and daily journals. Let the whole family—men women and children—read the newspapers. VRT.ANCIEIOLIE Arpera.—Two privates, belong ing to the Forty-ninth Pennsylvania, who were performing picket duty from Gen. Smith's di vision, on Wednesday last, having strayed be yond our iines, attempted to return on Thurs day, when, =on being ordered to' halt by the guards, they turned and run One was shot by the guardS in two places, and has since died, and the otherwas taken prisoner by them. As the guards had, been changed during the absence of these picket S. they evidently supposed them to be enemies. MEI BY WILL. A. 0017LTEA. ELmiatießin.a, Dec. 13, 1861 BY THEM.

The Washington Cabinet Threat ened with the Presence of a British Fleet in the Potomao, ABMS AND MUNITIONS OF WAR FOR CANADA. THE LONDON TIMES ON THE IHE EXPORT OF GUNPOWDER, NITRE, SALTPETRE, 40., PROHIBITED The royal mail steamer Eurripa has arrived at this point with highly important intelligence. She was detained at Queenstown till the 2nd, by order of the .government. She has the Queen's messenger on board with despatches for Lord Lyons. LONDON, Dec. 1.--The Observer stated that the Government has demanded from President Lin coln and his Cabinet the restoration of the per sons of the southern envoy*to the British Gov ernment.. . , Yesterday afternoon; after 5 o'clock p. m , her Majesty field a private:council it 'Windsor Castle.! Three of her Albaisters, including the first Lord of the. Admiralty and , the Secretaries of State and :War travelled from London to Windsor by special train to be present. Pre vious to leaving town the three ministers had attended a Cabinet council at Lord Palmerston's official ,residence. • . . The Observer also say's that a special • messen ger of the foreign office has been ordered to carry to Washington the demands of the British Government for Lord Lyons and will proceed to day by packet from Queenstown. The public will be satisfied to know that these demands are for an apology and.to insist on. the restitu tion to the, protection to the British flag the persons of those who were Violently and illegal ly torn, from that sacred asylum. The Observer adds there is no reason why they should;not be restored to the quarter-deck of the British Admiral at New York, or. Washing ton itself in the face of some ten or twelve men of war, whose presence in the Potomac would render thellustering Cabinet at Washington as helpless - as the Trani was before the guns and cutlasses of the ,San Jacinto: It is no fault of ours if it should come even to this. The arrangements for increasing the force in Canads are not yet complete, ,but in a very few hourd everything will be settled.. In the mean time a large ship, the Melbourne; has been ta ken up and is now being loaded with Armstrong guns, some 80,000 Enfield rifles, ammunition, and other stores at .Woolwich. It is not im possible that'this vessel will be• eseorted by one or two ships of war.: The rifles, are intended for the. Canadian military, and a strong rein forcement of field artillery will be dispatched forthwith. . The Times' city article of .• the 30th, sags the position of the Federal. States of. America, is al most identical in every commercial point with that which was occupied towards us by Russia before the Crimea war. Russia had a hostile tariff while we looked to her for a large portion of our general supply of breadstuffs ; but there is this peculiarity in our present case, that the commencement.would be by the break ing up of the blockade of the southern ports at once setting free our industry front the anxiety of the cotton famine and giving sure prosperity to Lancashire through the winter. At the same time we shall open our trade to eight millions in the confederate States, who desire nothing better than to be our customers. • At the privy council held on Saturday an or der was issued prohibiting: the export from the United Kingdom, or carrying coast-wise gen powder, saltpetre name of soda and brimstone. The Times has no hope that the Federal Goy ernmeut will comply with the demands of Eng land. The Morning Star declares that the state ment of instructions having been sent v 9 Lord Lyons to obtain the restitution of the Confede rate Commissioners or to take leave of Wash ington, was premature and so exaggerated as to be virturlly untrue. The Liverpool Courcer believesthat the Warrior has been ordered to Annapolis with the ultimatum of the govern ment. • SEG'OND D/SPATOII The steamer Jura arrived on the 29th ult The London 217ner in alluding to the deCision of the British Cabinet, that the arrest of Mason and Slidell is a clear violation of the law of na tions, believes that Lord Lyons will be instruct ed by the first steamer to demand reparation,. and if not complied with, will be instructed to withdraw the legation from Washington. FROM NEW YORK. HE . ESCAPE OF. THE PIRATE:SUMTER.. ANOTHER AC,COUNT. TIER PIRATE USES THE U. 8. FLAG AB A DECOY TO CAPTURE PRIZES. Two more Vemele Captured by the Pirate. THE PRIZES ROBBED AND BURNED MURDER OF A MONEY BROKER, EASTERN TROOPS MT ROUTE 2) THE SEAT OF WAR. The Bermuda Royal Gazette of ttie 3d 'inst., has the following relative to the escape, of the pirate Sumter : On the morning of the 25th the Iroquois as tonished the St Thomas folks by dropping into, the harbor and reporting that 'on a dark and squally: night the Sumter had slipped through the fingers of the Dacotah and Iroqiiois and gone no one knew where. The escape is va- riously accounted for. According to one ac count ai French war -steamer came out of St. Pierre during the night, and the Iroquois gave chase, and when daylight came the latter dis covered his mistake, but in the meanwhile tile iurnter:had i.tolen. away, and neither the Da cotah nor the Iroquois could give any account of her. HALIFAX,. Dec.. 10 Capt Briggs, of the brig Joseph Park reports that he was overhauled by the pirate Sumter, which had the American flag flying in lat. 6 n. long. 42 when he was ordered to heave to, and an;officer came aboard saying brig was s prm to the Sumter. ' At 'the same time the pirate kun up his flag and hauled down the ~tars and stripes. The brig was thoioughly overhauled and everything valuatile fobbed from her. 'The officers and crew were only al lowed their clothes. 'A hundred and sixty-five sovereigns weretaken Capt. Briggs Who with his crew were put aboard the pirate, and the vessel was then burnt The 'Sumter then sailed northward, not using steam, and reported herselfito verious foreign vessels as a United States craft.- • • • ~ On October 27th, the Schooner D. Trowbridge was Captured ; on November 9th Capt. Lyon of the latter and Captain Briggs were landed at Port ROyal. Three of the crew of the Joseph Park were enticed to join the Sumter. CaPtain Briggs expressed thanks for the kindness shown him by the consul at Port Royal, and several American and British shipmasters. Berniud Levy, money broker doing btr siness at the corner of the bowery and canal streets; was found this morning with his throat cut. .There is no clue to the assassin. The steamer City of Baltimore and Bavaria sailed this afternoon for Europe. The Fourth and Fifth Irish regiinents will leave onliionday for the seat'of war. • A des'patch to Elsn. Baxter, aid Of Gov.

FROM WAMINGTON. INTERESTING EXPERIMENTS. PRESENTATION OF A. FLAG TO THE 28d PENNSYLVANIA REGIMENT. Impoitant Decision of 'tha keoretary TEE VAN WYCK INVESTIGATING Colonel Murphy's 16th New York Regiment, made some interesting experiments to day, near the Navy Yard, to show with what facility' the means for crossing rivers, can be arranged. A pontoon bridge, three hundred and sixty feet long, was thrown over the Eastern Branch of the Potornoc, upon which the regiment with heavy wagons passed with perfect safety. A number of floats were plied over the river, the soldiers using shovels as propellors. The. Twenty Third regiment of Pennsylvania, commanded,by Col. Biuney, was presented to day with a flag, the gift of that State. The presentation speech was made by Speaker Grow, and the flag received in behalf of the regiment by Hon. Wm. D. Belly of Philadelphia. These eloquent addresses were listened to by a large auditory. The grounds were teaefully adorned, and ample provisions provided for all the military •as well as the civilians present. An important decision has just been made by the Secretary of War , and the Paymaster Gene ra. The decision is, in effect, that a soldier is entitled to pay from the day he enlists, and that he is not to waft until his company is full or the formal muster of the regiment into Government service.
