The followin? lines. sav9 the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, were suggested by an incident related bv Mr. Go ugh in his lecture on "1'eculiar People." Supposed to be the narration cf an old nurse in one of the hospitals He was brought in with the wounded, Six bullets in his frame ; We knew we could not save him, But we tried to, all the same, And when we'd washed and fed him, I sat down by his side To tell him of the Saviour, And be with him when he died. He lay there still and peaceful, And listened to the Book It seemed an old friend to him, By his happy, trusting look. And then we prayed beside him, For' we are not heathens here. But try to help our brothers when The hour of death draws near. His breath came short and painful. And his words were. faint and low, As he gave his farewell messages, I bent to bear them so ; "His love and thanks to mother, He had triad to do his best, He'd often read her Bible, She would find it in hiscbest ; It had been a comfort to him, But the balls had found her boy, And she would soon come to him In realms of endless joy." There was a pause, a falter ; I asked himj "Nothing more VI And with a flush he quickly Drew off a ring he wore, 'Send this to mother, Madam, And tell her I was true To the one who gave it ; she will know What I would have her do." And then the bright flush faded. And a deadly paleness came. And I knew his heart was breaking For the one he could not name. Just then along the passage, Between the rows of beds, Carue on a group of ladies, With red roses in their heads, And colours gay and flaunting Were mingled in their dress. And they talked and laughed out gaily In the sight of such distress ' I frowned upon them grimly And tried to stop their noise, (If there's one thing makes me angry, :2'is unkindness to the boys.) " But iLeir hearts were hard and selfish. And they would not heed my frown, But came on near the pillow where I watched death settling down. They stopped there, and a tall one, The handsomest of all. Spoke out in tones as flippant As tho' at dance or ball ; Spoke to the man just dying, With questioning far amiss. My friend, pray tell we truly. Was the country worth, all this ?" Life came back for a moment, And ho rose up in his bed, Forgetful of his sufferings. As with steady voice he said, "Aye ! Madam, the dear country Is worth it. ttrorti it all ! I pray our God to save it, tho' A million men should fall '." His latest word for Freedom, He tottered back, and died; The ladies turned away their heads ; I do believe they cried. I closed hi3 eyelids sobbing, I have looked on many a death, But never saw a soldier give More gladly life and breath. They laid him down to slumber In the crowded army-lot, And in a leisure moment, I put flowers above the spot, But, whenever I go near it, 1 think he is not there, He's where the "faithful unto death" A crown of glory wear. . .

Flowers are the memories of childhood. which accompany us from the cradle to the crave. 1 Jeit my birthplace at the aire ot seventeen, yet the pocm.es, tulips and roses of my mother's garden are pictured in my mind with a vernal freshness. Jeach vour children to Jove flowers, and thev will love home and all its inmates. Reautif'v the grounds around your dwelling with rich foli age, plants, and the bright blossoms of sweet flowers, and the faces of all avIio look upon the scene will he lighted with smiles, while their hearts will worship the great Giver of all good and perfect gift.5 to man. If I could be the means of creating a general taste for gardening and love of flowers, I should feel as though I had been of more benefit to my country than all the military heroes of the present age. Worship God with flowers. As lie loves all that is beautiful and good, so will lie love you as you make your liome lovelv. The Rome correspondent of the London Time says that at the last annual "Aca lculia Poliglotta" of the great Catholic Col lege of the Propaganda, the youths who (mieu on t lie palm were two negroes, re joicing in the name of William Samba and John Provost. Their delivery and action were wonderful, and called forth thunders of applause even in a church. A 'big Injun' having strayed from the camp, found himself lost on trying to return to it. After looking about, he drew himself up and exclaimed, 'Injun lost! but recover ing hiniself,and feeling unwilling to acknowl edge such short-sightedness, continued, No, Injun no lost wigwam lost; (striking his breast) Injun here! The new State of West Virginia has been divided by her Legislature into townships, like other Free States and unlike the Slave States, which have no civil division below counties. She has also adopted a free school system. They say West Virginia is unconstitutional ; but she don't act like it. A school-bov being asked by bis teacher how he should flog him, replied: "If you please, sir, I should like to have it upon the Italian system of penmanship the heavy troke upward and the down onefc light ! SPEECH OF EON. A. MTEES. ITie Hon. Amos Myers, of Western Pennsylvania delivered a very able speech in the United States House of Representa tives, on the 3d of February last, on the Constitutionality and neecessity of the draft After having dealt a merited and excoriat ing rebuke to Chauncy C. Burr, Clement L. vallandigham and John U. Andrews, for merly of Virginia, who asserted that the draft law was unpopular, and that it was the highwayman's call for "your money or your life," the Hon. gentlemen went on to prove most clearly and conclusively the constitu tionality of the draft as well as its necessity In the course of his remarks after having quoted from 9th Wheaton, 196, and 3Iar shall's life of Washington, 3d vol. p. 241, he asks the question "What is a draft?" and before answering it says : Every citizeiyn this land owes it to his country to support it in time of trial : that "1 1 . i 1 every man is Dounu to taKe up arms in de fense of the life of the nation. Every citi zen is bound to do that. I know that Gov ernment, in its humanitarian ideas, in the liberal notions, in its exercise of sovereignty as it pleases, may exempt whom it will and how it will. But, sir, the great proposition stands out boldly, and as the truth, that every man is bound to march to the battle field to defend his country in the dav of its danger. In other words, the Government at this time has a draft upon all of her peo ple. She has her hand upon every man's shoulder, saying, "Come; my life is in dan ger, i am drawing you to mv support: come. help me out of these troubles." That is the position which the Government occupies ivmuus rvcij citizen. Xjvery one is bound t r rrn of drawing-strings between the Government and its citizens ! and the draft is to ascer tain which of those strings .hall be cut We have been told that tho draft is to as certain who shall go to fight the battles of our country. Sir, that is a mistaken defini tion. The draft is to ascertain who may stay at home, for all are bound to go ; and the man who cannot see that has studied the Constitution and the meaning of the true requisitions of our Government to very little purpose, or he has gone to a verv bad school teacher lor patriotic education. I he honorable gentleman took decided ground that it is the duty of all to take up arms in defense of the country, and advoca ted an increase of pay to the private soldier, as well as the privilege of voting. In re ference to the Administration, Mr. Myers said : - But, sir, the Administration could not be left alone without a fling at it the other day in respect to its treatment of what was called the favorite General of the Army of the Potomac. I did not intend, had it riot been thrown out in this wav. to sav one word against that once favorite General, either here or elsewhere. But when an attempt is made to stab this Administration, to mis represent this Administration, one which the people have taken up. determined that he who for four years has held the helm of state so steadily shall run the good ship in to port, I cannot be sileut. Politicians may think and say and do as thev please, but God and people are for Abraham Lincoln. Jeff Davis and the others may be for whom tney hte. L daughter. J e cannot quote at any length from this able and common-sense speech. The fol lowing paragraphs will be found not only interesting, put will serve to place the patriotism and soundness of the speaker's views in marked contrast with (hose who opposed the draft : Sir, there may be a great struggle in the spring, and we owe it to our country that we should speedily rill up our Arm v. The way to make the struggle brief is to present a bold, united, strong front to the enemy, and that is the object of this bill. We need men to be draited into the Armv. The boI- diers in the Army want a draft, and I sav let the soldiers, will be done. Let us have a darft aud an increase of the Army, so that we may encourage the daring and heroism of our brave soldiers' to crush out the last rebel foe that may come against them. Let us do that, and then let us, oh, let us con fiscate every species of property of rebels now and forever. "What will VOH do wirri triia nrnnerfir when conficated ?' ' I have a way of dispos ing of it. I would take a part of it and throw it into our Treasury, about the sol vency of which some people have so much concern, l he rest 1 would parcel out into sections, and give them to the men who have fought our battles. I do not know that it is necessary to go into the details of the division, but I think I would give to every single man eighty acres, to every mar ried man one hundred and sixty, to every married man with a child one hundred and eighty acres, and if God. bless them with twins, three hundred acres ; and tell all the soldiers that a like merit shall have a like reward.

Friend Row : Allow me through the columns of your worthy "Journal," to com municate, lor the benefit of your leaders, a few items of interest which I copy from the Charleston Tri-Weekly Courier," (publish ed in Charleston City, S. C. at eight dollars, for six months) and captured with some oth er mail, by the Expedition that was fitted out here a short time ago. and left for Flori da under command ot Gen. Seymour I will begin with an article, from the Courier: styled "Promts, and Performances." Yhen thc,war began, says the Richmond Whig, everybody professed to be willing to lay down life, and give up propert v in rhalf ot the cause.

A little Jess fright and more common scDse we will not say Patriotism may compose these difficulties, and show us a pathway out ot the bog into which we have fallen." Again, the Courier quotes an article in which it says: "The Rockingham (Va.,) Register says Mr. Smugood, of that county is selling flour to soldiers families at ten dol lars per barrel, notwithstanding it is gener aly selling there at from sixty to one hun dred dollars per barrel. ' ' I will now. give the prices of domestic goods and gram at Augusta Ga., as taken from the Courier by myself.

True, we have not got Sofas, large Arm Chairs, soft Feather beds and downy pillows to rest our weary bodies upon, when weaned and fatigued by duty, but what is this in comparison to a divided coun try ? But now, in conclusion, I hope that my Democratic friends will hot think, from the above, that I mean teat all Democrats are Copperheads. Not at all. But I do mean that, if there arc any claiming to be Democrats, or Republicans, that are in S3-m-pathy with Southern Traitors, thev are, in my estimation.
