! Le tter from Piulipshurg.
PiiiLiPSBURo, Dec. 1 0 :.
Dear Journal: Now is the wkeLIng
time of the year, that in our boyhood days,
we were gay ai.d happy and full of expecta
tions, and wondering what our bachelor Un
cles and old maid Aunts, were fpg to pre
sent us on Christmas. Happy reason or the
year; it makes mel'eelas if thetifih-of acentu
ry had suddenly shifted off its mortal coil and
transported me back to the enjoyment of a
"merry Christmas." How natural it is for
mankind, when they have attained that age
when man suspects himself a fool, and per
haps womankind, though I am not aware of
any definite age for woman suspecting her
self a fool, but generally supposed to be, at
a much later period in life than man, for the
scenes, occurrences, incidents and "times"
of former holidays to come to their memory,
at the return of them, years afterwards.
And how strange it seems, that we so much
more distinctly remember wh at occurred du
ring the holidays, than at any other season
of the year. At the return of Christmas,
the conversation is always where and what
each one was doing last Christmas. Ah !
what a lonely day for the noble, brave and
true soldier, as he sets wrapped in deep med
itation in his "winter quarters" away down
on the banks of the Rappahannock or tramps
his wean' rounds of sentineJ. The wind
moans around the corners and through the
chinks of his "winter Quarters." his face is
buried in his hands, and his elbows resting
on his knee-1. One by one the scenes of his
once happy home rise up visibly to his im
agination, lhere sits Annie on tue home
made raar-carnet nlavirnr with the "Christ
mas presents" from her grandma ; he watch
es her closciv, for when he firt sot out for
the tented field, Annie had not made her !.
but on this "great stage of. fools and cried
that she had come." Poor soldier," he al-
not becomes leaious ot granunia s presents.
for his darling little babe is so deeply inter
ested with them, that it takes no notice of
this soa of Mars. He concludes to chamre
his base, there sits his better half, she has
just trave the turkev a look. " lis roasting
meeiyrslie says, as she resumes her chair
The soldier yawns, and casts u slv glance at
Annie, and talis back on the recital of the
la.-t battle (13tJi l)i 'fiil urevJons to hi'
being granted a furlough. Tfow many thou-
sands of these brave and veteran soldiers of
that great, grand, and victorious army of the
Potomac, will think fondiv. affectionate! v
and lovinely of the dear ones at home, next
Thursday" and Friday evenings. Uut alas !
how many have ceased to thir.k, that enjoy-
ed that power a year ago. See the moth-
ers and children 'that only "one short year
ago, were in the enjoyment of life. No
thoughts then that their gay and fancy dress-
es would, ere the return of Christmas, be
changed for the sable garb that too plainly
tells of the death of him, who they fondly
