A DAY'S MARCEL
AN INCIDENT OF THE WAR
Right above our heads blazed the overpow
ering sun. We lookedup piteously at, the glar
ing.sky, loping in Vain. to see some friendly
cloud interpose in our behalf, and cast a gene
rous shadow over our rilinting - columns. But
nothing save the clear blue of interminable
space, unrelieved by a single cloud, and embla
zoned by the scorching sun, met our.despairing
eyes. Still we. marched on, our blouses satu
rated with perspiration, and our temples throb
-bing painfully amid- the tramp of a thousand
brogans. Each one of the innumerable straps
which complete the harness of a soldier seemed
to sink gradually into our. burning flesh, . We
did Uottirop from' the ...ranks - awl stretch our
wearied limbs on the yellow grass, or we would
famiiik for water, as note had been seen for
many a weary toile, so still we moved on. Be
side me walked a pale, slender young fellow,
whom the - boys had christened "gentle Joe,"
dOubtlesa on account of his mild disposition.
Joe and I had been great friends since he had
been transferred along with some eight or ten
others, - some six mouths previous. He itas a
meek little fellow, and as a matter of coarse
tyranized over by the rest. I often met him
about camp, and eventually took 'an interest in
him, and prot2.cting him as far as Joy' in my
power from imposition ; mid, indeed, one day
-rescued him from the hands of a drunken rascal,
who, wills an iron ramrod was about to impose
summary puuislunent 'upon poor Joe, because,
forsooth the little
_fellow had declined visiting
the quartermaster's tent, for the purpose of re
alizhig a canteen of whisky. 'After this I made
'an attempt to have hint transferred into our
mess, and to his evident joy, succeeded. Here,
under my protection, Joe seemed perfectly hap
py; for though in action he was as brave as the
bravest, he appeared to have a mortal terror of
the rough ways of the - men. ' His modesty form
ed a capital subject for the witty, and I would
often' ee hint turn scarlet at some rough joke.
He was very fond of me, however, and by many
a little incident of self-sacrifice, knew the pa
tient affeclion of "gentle Joe."
- But to return Woes. march. As I said I was
dragging my weary limbs along beside my friend,
who, in spite of my own sufiering,-inspired me
with pity, His eyeballs were turned painfully
towards the lids; his lips dry,' cracked and
bleeding,• were drawn tightly across his teeth;
his knapsack hung flappin g from his narrow
shoulders; and but one drop of sweat rolled
doWn his cheek—a drop of mortal agony, press
ed from an unwilling brain. Yet-be bore up,.
add his bur•ohig feet still echoed to the thous
' ands areond. On, on we tramped ; our clothes
powdered, our beard gray, and our lungs sting
ing-With the hateful dust. Anon an unfortunate
falling ih convulitons by the way and the surgeon
bending over him in piteous helplessness, for
his flask is long empty, were the only inter
ruptions, in our monotonous march. But no
signs of commiseration disturbed the dogged ex
' pression of the grim faces that passed.• All
feeling, all senses were lost -in one of intense
thirst. No faufilliar shoat greeted the colonel
as he rode along the line, trying with ghastly
smileli to'Cheer his men, or with husky voice and
swollen tongue to venture a melancholy joke.
Even the dumb stoma received no curse a=
they , struck the soldier's'foot as he went stum
bling on.
"Let Me take your musket, Joe;" said I, fear
iug he would sink down.. But he- shook his
head and staggered on. '
"Will you eve inc. that gun?"' I i6stutf6d;
after lie'had'taken a few more Wildsteps, reel
. ing like a drunken man.
"I can carry it, Tom,"
" 'he answered looking
up, gratefully, saw it was useless to'ask•him,
as the brave little fellow' would _never had re
linquished it; and it Was evident that both he
and his musket must soon fall unless he was re
lieved: Therefore, I unstring my knapsack, and
leaving it in my tracks, took the piece from his
shoulder. We had hardly gained another mile
before my head began to Whirl; and the glitter
ing bayonets ahead seemed a flickering sheet of
flame. I felt myself staggering. ' •
"Here; Tom, Thave some water, drink!"
"Water! I must be delirious; or' are you
mockihg me?, No; Joe never does.that. But
he did not drink—then he .cannot have it. Joe,
Joe, Where is the water?"
"Here, Tom, in my canteen."
"Then for God's sake drink yburself, for I
won't," I answered; - determined he sliduld nut
sacrifice the last drop of lifes,at the . altar of
• friendship. ' I dropped both' muskets,' in hope
they would relieve me; it - Was in vain, fbr,
after,a few random strides, I became insensible - .
I was awakened by a grateful drop of Water
trickling down mythroat. " More, ' I gasped,
as I opened my eyes, and distinguished the form
of D. man kneeling besido Me'. The canteen
was placed to my lips, and as I drained it to the
last - droir; I recognized 'my " gentle Joe.". I
felt eometvhat . revived, and regained Idy feet. '

But he made no attempt to move; - sitting nio
tionless, embiading his knees, and watehingtrie
intently. 2

" - Of Contse,' wevill both if stay here.'

RESOLUTION'S OF , TRT E LIJTUERAN
SYNOD. ,
. .
The twenty-first Convention of the General
Synod of the - Lutheran Church met in York
recently. The following resolutions on the
state of the country were presented by Revf'
W, A. Passavant, and adopted with but two
dissenting votes: ,'
Resolved, , That hiving assembled a second
time during the prevalence of civil War in our
land, this Synod .cannot separate without sol
emnly re-storming the dechttations adopted at
our last convention in ' referpnce to"the origi
nating, cause of the, rebelliOti, the necessity of
its forcible suppression, the righteousness of the
.war which is waged by the Government of the
'United • States for .the maintenance of the na
tional life, and. the Consequent duty of every
Christian to support it by the whole weight of
his influence, his prayers, and his efforts.
Resolved, That we acketiiiyledge with profound
gratitude to Almighty bud the various and iin
-portant succees which have thus 'fir crowned
our arms, the merciful interposition of Provi
dencelin delivering us from the invasions of the
enemy, and in p rotecting our homes, our church
es and our institutions frbm the desolations of
war, and the cheering progress which has been
made by the Goverimient and the nation in the
recognition of the laws of God and the rights
of man, in the measures which have beenadopt
ed for the suppression of the rebellion..
Resolved, That recognizing qar suffering and
calamitiesa of war as,the ridldeousjudgment of
a just God, visited upon us for our transgres
sions, we call upon our pastims and churches to
unite with us in the confe - ssiou of our many and
grievous individual and national sins, and in
fervant supplications for the Divine forgiveness,
that as a people we May, break off sins by right
eousness, and do justly, love mercy, and walk
humbly with God; ,
Resolved, That as persistent efforts are ma
king among us by professedly christian writers
to prove from the Holy Scriptures the divine
institution of American slavery—the principal
cause of this wicked rebellion—we the delegates
of the General Synod of the Evangelical Luth
eran church in the United States, hereby ex
press our unqualified condemnation of such a
course, which claims the sanction of the mer
ciful God and Father of us all for a system of
human oppression, which exists only violence,
under the cover of iniquitouSlaws.

THE CHIMNEY CORNER.—The old Chimney
corner! It is endeared to' the heart from the
earliest recollections. What dreams have been
there! What. stories told! What blight hours
passed! It was a place t., think in, to laugh in
and much the coziest place in the house to rest
in. It wits there where dear old grand-mamma
used to sit at her knitting, warming her poor
rheumatic back against the warm wall; where
grandpa used to fall asleep over his newspaper;
where mamma used top-lace her spinning wheel
and papa used to sit there too and read in the
great arm chair.
It was there you used to rend fairy tales in
ymir childh'uod, folded all'so snug, and warm
and cosy, in its great warns lap while the wind
of a winter's night was whistling without. Your
faVerite plumb cake was never Si! sweet as when
eaten there, and the stories yotrEread by the sit
ting room fireside - were - never half so fascinating
as those read in, the chimney corner. •
If
-you were sad you went thereto cry. If you
were merry, you, with your brothers and Sisters,
nestled there to have a rightmerry tirne. Even
puss and the housedog loved the Old chimney
corner! .
Look back to the old house,. where every
room,'every nook is so full of pleasant recollec
tions—the family sitting room, where were so
many happy meetings your own- chababer, with
its little, window, "where the sun came peeping,
in at morn.!' •Mother's room,,atill sacred with
her presence. But, after all, brightest :memo
ries cluster about that' chimney' corner: - -
You long to be folded in its faithful old bosom
agaiai as, you: were in childhood; and have a
good cry over all those happypast . tines.lt is desolate now. The bnght facei cluster
ed there Of yore'will never come back' again.
Black and dingy are the loved walls; and- the .
nnoke from ' he kitchen, fire never makes them
warm any' more. But still memory' seta, up

THE Kinderhook Rough Notes gets off the
following about Job:
It is supposi'd by Many unthinking persons
wherread the scriPturesjin the same careless
manner they run through amewipaper—taking
everything they in a literal sense—that old
Job was actually afflicted with boils or corrupt
ive sores. Now, to the casual render this de- -
dnetion is plain enough; but when his occupa- •
Lien is taken into consideration, a very different
conclusion will be arrived. at Job, it will be
recollected, was • a printer—or whatis about
the same:Thing, he wished his 'weir& were print
•ed
,in a book;' and the - se toils were nothing
more thin his non-paying suhscribers, the
thought of whose delinquencies were really a,
phigue to him whenever a bill for paper,eor
, 'other material came in, as these subscription
were depended upon to realize the amount due.
Yet they merely proved the evidence of things
hoped for, but the substance of things not seen. ,
Then, these 'comforters' that surrounded .
they were his creditors, whose continual cawing
for pay was enough to make a man, even with
his reputed patience, to feel sore all over, as
well as mean enough to creep into an ash-heap;
and scratch himself with a pOt-hook or clam
shell, by the-way of Working off the extra 'bile.'
That's what the matter was will Job. , We can
sympathize with him, for we are often planed
in the same fix, and we have even got such a
'spell' on now. Nothing but a few 'greenbacks'
will remove it."
SOLDIERS AFTER THE WAR.—Macaulay, in
the portion of his history relating 'to the state
of English society at the close Of the great
revolution, touches on a subject curiously par,.
allelN•in our own 'times. Speaking of the fear
that were, then entertained as to the result of
disbanding Cromwell's army and throwing its
unruly elements, back into society, he says:--
"The troops were now to be disbanded. Fifty
'thousand men, accustomed to the profession of
arms, were at once thrown on the world, and
experience seemed to warrant the belief that
this change would produce much misery and
crime—that the discharged veterans would be
seen begging in every street, or• would be driven
by hunger to 'pillage. But no such it result
followed. In a few months there remained not
a trace indicating that the most formidable. ar
my in the world had just been absorbed into the
mass'of the community. The rtyalist them
selves confessed that, in every 'department Of
honest industry, the discarded warriors pros
pered beyond other nien: that none was charged
with any theft or robbery: that none was heard
to ask an•alms: and that, if a baker, a mason;
or wagoner attracted notice by his diligence and
sobriety, he was, in all probability ; ono of Oliver's
old soldiers,' .
REMEMBER HOME.—Fortunate unspeakably
fortunate—is.the young man who has a hohie
that he loves, and dear ones nestling there; to
-whom his heart goes out in immeasurable yearn
ings of affection. The youth who has came ti.)
the city to seek his fortune, is `guarded as by an
angle from Heaven, when he carries fresh in
memory the picture of an humble cottage home
which shelters.• the dear and 'venerated being
who gave him birth. . The thrill , of her loving:
touch as she laid her hands upon his head in
blessing, ere he turned his footsteps toward the,
great city,' shall hold him ever in the Patti or
Life, and charm the tempter away.' And Milli
more blessed is he if he has to devote a portion ,
of wanes to the support of ,that home, and .of
those dear ones ,whom he .so loves. In such a
case, his earnings are hallowed with a sacred
ness which communicates itself to his character,_
and is exhibited in blossoms of noble duteous;
ness. The consciousness that the wages of his'
toil gladden and beautify and make comfortayle:
THINK OF idly and flippantly -, the'
word death is said. Who can tell what a day
will bring forth? We are here 'to'day. and to
morrow numbered with the dead. Our fathers
where ate they? To 'use a correct
_figure of
speech—seventy grains of-sand taken fioin the
mighty ocean, represent the usual number of,
years allotted to maxi. But what 'mortal can
compute eternity? ' The sands of the boundless
deep, aye, and of countless worlds, in the im-,
mensity of space; all_ would be exhausted in,
computing annual periods of time, similar to
this material world. Reader pause? Every;
pulse that beats in the inner man is a quick step,
towards eternity. Be therefore prepared for ;
the spiritual world and a vast eternity either
for better or worse.
OBEYING THE PRIEST.—An Irishman made
a sudden rush into a drug -shop, took from Ms
pocket a soda-water bottle, filled to the brim
with some pure liquor, and handing it across the
counter, exclaimed—
"There,doctor., snuff that, will you?"
The doctor did as he was directed, and pro.:
noutiged the liquor to be genuine whisky. ;
" Thank you, doctor,' said the Irisliman.i .
" Hand it to me again, if you plase."
The doctor again did as' directed, and asked
NS hat he meant
" Och, thin," si4d Pat; " if you will have iG
the praisttould me not to drink any lof this tad
less I got it from the doctor. So here's youz --
health and the praNt's' health." •
"A L'EETLE TECH."—"Some months since,"
writes a correspondent from Rondout on the
Hudson, "our :minister .vas impressing upon
his hearers the duty of a greater regard for the
services of the day of Thanksgiving, set apart
by the Governor, and was infoktning them that
on that day he' would preach a sermon at that
place, and he wished them all to attend, to rem
der, in a proper manner, acknowledgements
for the many benefits of the past year—for a
season of health and bountiful harvests, etc."
Here a little wiry man, in a blue coat, With
metal buttons, and a very elevated collar, pops
ped up from his-seat and squeaked out: "Dom :7
mie, I wish you'd jest give the 'tater rot rileetle
tech in that sermon o' yourn. It's been dread=
ful bad with us!"
A RESTLESS genius, whO went to a Quaker
meeting, and after hearing a 41(4orous gravity
for an hour or two, at last declared he could
stand it longer.
"Why," said he, "it's enough to tire the
very d—l• out • •
" Yes, friend," responded an elderly gentle•
man of the congregation, " does thee know - that
is exactly what we want?"
UNEDUCATED peitions and 'even ' the rudest
often succeed h: illustration, where the thought
ful and cultiVated , fail.' A striking instance is
given us in the case of a negro, whose head
examined by a phrenologist. Said he: "It am
hard to tell what meat is in de smoke-house by
puffin' de hand on de roof!"
. ,
- SOME Indiana soldiers on a scout in tllO
mountains of Georgia, came upon-a house Pe
cupied. only by an old woman. "Well, old
lady," said the leader, " what are you seceshr
"No" said she. "What there "Baptist," said
she, promptly, "and always was." •
