ajrXhe ruumr, rurrent on New Year's

aWWe notice J that the M iC nburg and
New Ucrlin mail did not rach Lewirburg
laat Tuesday morning in time to be distri
buted and connect, cast. "The war" was
tiot the caase of that failure.
Doubtless tho agents and drivers were .
detained te accommodate different iudivid
ejala often, to the injury of other indi
viduals, and of the lcpartment, which
pays for prompt mail csnuections, and not
for carrying passengers, which is au inci
dental and secondary matter. &3U
abould always be borne io miud, by all .
concerned, that ai!road time is generally :
Jastr.r than Iowa or watch-rcpaircrs' time.
Wm also notice, frequently, at the lVst
0ce, letters kept bacJc for want of pre-
ntment of roslace. e tbinK It an lin-
aent of postage. We think it an iin-
pssition to require pre payment, but while
it is the law, people must not forget the
pay if they want their letters to go.
These facts aid to show that the Post
Masters are not always at fault in the loo
reception -of letters, although they also
are sometimes forgetful and neglectful.

But here, by old Potomac's Hoods,
I mark each fading tree;
I clap my rifle to my breast.
The si.'rm is moantne wild.
An i. ih ui-h my soul be all at rest
1 think of lUee, ui caiLr !
Oar soldiers, sheltered frntn ihe blast,
itiir leaders' tent, we guard.
And. m.oSi the deaJ leaves whirling past,
Keep fa.thlal waleh and ward;
Bevond the wave, hieh touJea frowns,
Bv R-bel arms defiled
I wair.h its crest, the pine tree crowns,
Vet ihi.ik of ihee, v ciild!
Our fifleea hundred rifles, soon
V.ram.a's hills shall wake.
And tyrants hear onr bnste's tone
Rev-tin I, for Freedom' salre ;
M hen, rallying in onr country's cause,
Thou;h heaps ef devt be piled.
In every loll and battle pause.

The tormolls aad the paina of war
Wilh cheerful hearts we'll meet.
And bear our qlonoos banner tar
The "sonny sonih" to ereet t

From hoe and friend exiled
M latent prayer, and latest .gh,
'Will be for thee, wv rmi.i!
