That rule the watery plain,
And the unahrinking men who guide
Their progress o'er the main.
How pliantly their steamers float,
Row keen their lightnings fly,
And braver brute than these are found
Beat not beneath the sky.
White u the glancing sea-bird's wing,
Their swelling sails expand,
Beside Abe bright Email isles
Or green Fermosa's strand,
Or where the sparse Norwegian plan
A sudden summer shares,
Or Terra del Fuego's torch
Amid the tempest glares.
Uticiov'd, their trackless way they bold
Though vengeful Boras roars,
And make their port 'mid stranger coasts
Or undiscovered shores.
Buds people of s foreign speech,
Have heard their cheering cry,
"Land ho!"—“Ahoy!"—and "Aear•a•hand,"
With (he ready tars'_.reply.

And link together every sea,
This rolling globe that laves.

Where storm•rapped Nature thought to dwell
In her hermit loneliness ;

Where fearful icebergs shine ?"

And answered,—" They are mine 1"
My Country's ships I with dauntless prow
The tossing deep they tread ;
The pirates of the Libyan sands
Bare felt their prowess dread.—
And the British lion's lordly mane
Their victor might confessed,
For well their nation's faith and pride
They guard on Ocean's breast.
When strong opposition fiercely frowns,
Her Eagle rears his crest,
And weans no other bird shall pluck

Mr. Thornbrooke to himself , as he wiped
the perspiration from his brow; "but

dolorously at a small tear just in his elbow,

" Oh 1 the - bashfulness of bachelors 1"
When Mr. Thornbrooke arrived within
the charmed precincts of Mr. Raymond's
handsome parlors, velvet carpeted, clian
deliered with gold and ormula, crowded
to the very doors with those. charming
knick-knacks that only a woman's taste
provides, Miss Lilly was " at home " in a
bewilderment of pink merino dress, edged
with white lace around the pearly should
ers, and a crimson moss rose twisted in
her soft brown hair, She never looked
half so pretty, and thank Providence,
Jones wasn't on hand for once in his life.
But, what was almost as bad, Lilly's cousin
was there—a tall, slender, black-eyed girl,
with arched lips, and cheeks as red as a
Spitzenberg apple. 0, how Thornbrooke
wished that Miss. Ester Allen visa at the
bottom of the Red Sea, or anywhere else
except in that particular parlor. And
then her eyes were so sharp—he hadn't
been doing the agreeable more than four
minutes and a halt before she exclaimed :
" Dear me, Mr. Thcrobreoke--pray ex
cuse WE-but what on earth is the matter
with your elbow ?"
Mark turned scarlet thetraitorous

"Only "a compound fracture in my coat,

" Hold your arm, sir, and I'll set all

threaded with black silk, and setting ex

" You ought to have a house-rife, Mr.

lifting up her long lashes in•his direction.

" A what ?" demanded Mark, turning

"A house-wife."
"Yes." said Mark, after a moment's

"Oh, a very pretty little concern. I'll

pearl mad gold with two wings sprouting
ont of his broadcloth, on either aide. And
just as he was opening his lips to assure
Miss Lilly that he was ready to take the
precious gift in his arms then and there,
without any unnecessary delay, the door
opened and in walked Jones.
Mirk was not at all cannibalistic in his
propensities, but then be could have
eaten Jones up with uncommon pleasure.
And there the fellow sat, pulling his long
mustache and talking the moat insipid
twaddle—eat and sat, until Mark rose in
despair to go. Even then he had no op
portunity to exchange a private word with
Lilly.
" You'll, you'll not forget—"
" Oh, be sure to remember," said
she, smilingly, and half wondering at that
unusual pressure he gave her hand.
" Ladies often do provide their bachelor
friends so."
Mark went home the happiest individ
ual that ever trod a New York pavement.
Indeed 'so great was his felicity that he
indulged in various gymnastic capers in
dicative of bliss, and only paused in them
at the gruff caution of a policeman, who
probably had forgotten his own courting
days—
"Come, young Juan, what are you
about?"
" Was there ever, a more delicate Way
of assuring me of her favorable considera.
Lion! 'Rai there ever a more feminine
admission of her sentiment.? Of course
she will come herself—an•angel, an angel
breathing airs from Paradise—,oh the
delicious words! Wonder in what neigh
borhood she would like me to engage a
residence—how soon would it be best to
name the day ! Oh ! if I should awake,
and find it all a blissful dream!"
Early next morning, Mr. Thornbrooke
set briskly to work, " righting up things."
How he swept and dusted and scoured—
the room was aired to get rid of the to
bacco smoke, and sprinkled with cologne,
and beautified generally. At length when
the dust was swept into a corner, and cov
ered by a carelessly (?) disposed news
paper, be found the window glass murky,
and palished it with such vengeance that
his fist, handkerchief and all, went
through, sorely damaging the hand, and
necessitating the ungraceful accessory of
an old hat to keep out the winter blast
for the time being. However, even this
mishap didn't damp hie spirits, for was
not Lilly coming?
Long and wearily he waited, yet no
tinkle at the bell gave warning of her ap
proach. " It's all her sweet feminine
modesty," thought he, and was content.
At length there was an appeal below
and Mark's heart jumped into his mouth,
boating like a reveille drum. He rushed
to the door, but there was no one but a
little grinning boy with a box.
" Mita Raymond's compliments, and

" You sent me a house-wife this morn

"It wasn't the kind I wanted at all."
" Not the kind you wanted I"
"No ; I prefer a living one, and I came
to see if I could change it. I want one
with brown hair and eyes—something, in

Can't I have it?"
Lilly turned white and then red ;
smiled, and then burst into tears, and
tried to draw away her hand, but Mark
held it fakt.
"No, no, dear Lilly ; first tell me if I

releasing the captive hand, the unreason

Mark Thornbrooke diverged from the.

AZAD Wonsx.—The Arab women marry
about the age of sixteen.. They are allow
ed great liberty, visiting each other till
late at night, without interruption.; in
deed, being in company with a female is
considered the beat protection. A woman
is enabled to divorce her husband on
very slight grounds; a had temper on his
part is a sufficient reason; and, if no seri
ous offence can be proved against the
wife, she is entitled to receive back her
dowry. Every lady, when she visits, car
ries on her arm a little bag of coffee—this
is boiled at the house where she spends
the evening; thus enabling her to enjoy
society without putting her friend to ex

An officer down in Georgia tells the
following story :
One night Gon. - was out on the
line, and observed a light on the moun
tain, opposite. Thinking'it was a signal
light of the enemy, he remarked to his
artillery officer that a hole could easily be
put through it. Whereupon the officer,
turning to the corporal in charge of the
gun, said :
Corporal, do you see that light I"
" Yes, sir."
"Put a hole through it," oraered the
Captain.
The Corporal sighted the gun, and when
all was reedy he looked up and said
• " Captain, that's the moon.",
" Don't care for that," was the Captain's
ready response, " put a. hole through it
anyhow.'

Mrs. Eturratt's Daughter.
The misery of the pretty and heart
broken daughter of Mrs. Surratt is the
talk of the city. This girl appears to have
loved her mother With all the petulant
passion of a child. She visited her con
stantly, and to-dai made so stirring an
effort to obtain hel life that her devotion
takes half the disgrace from the mother.
She got the priests to speak in her behalf.
Early to-day she k nelt in the cell at her
mother's feet, and!sobbed, with now and
then a pitiful scream till the gloomy cor
ridors rang. She endeavored to win from
Payne a statement, that her mother was
not accessory, and; es a last resort, 'flung
herself upon thit steps of the White
louse, and enadecthet portal memorable I

o'clock this naoriing, Mrs. Surratt, ac
companied by a feinale friend, ag, thavisit
ed the White Udine for the purpose of
obtaining an interifiew with the President.
The latter havingrgiven orders that he
would receive not one to-day, the door
keeper stopped Miss Surratt at the faot of
the steps leading 'up to the PresidentAi
office, and would not permit her to pro
ceed further. She then asked permission
to see General Muzzy. the President's
military secretary, who premptly answer
ed the summons, and came down to where
Miss Surratt was standing. As soon as the
General made his appearance, Miss Sw
eatt threw herself upon her knees before
him, and catching him by the coat, with
loud sobs and streaming 'eyes, implored
him to assist her in obtaining a hearing,
with the President. General Muzzy, in as
tender a manner as possible, informed
Miss Surratt that lie count not cordply
with her request, as . President Johnson's
orders were imperative, and he would
receive no one. Upon General Muzzy re
turning to his office, Miss •Surratt threw
herself upon the stair steps, where she

to intercede in her mother's 'behalf.
While thus weeping, she declared her
mother was too good and kind to be guilty
of the enormous crime of which she was
convicted, and asserted that if her mo
ther was put to death ebe wished

east room, where she lay in wait for all

"Agate," the special correspondent of
the Cincinnati Gazeue, (Rep.)• writing off
Fort Macon, N. C., June ith, gives an in
ierasting account of an interview between
General She rman and Chief Justice Chase,
which took place at Newbern, when the
hero of the Carolinas was on his way
North. We quote as follows :
General Sherman was boiling over with
pride at the performances of his army
through the winter, and all the more in
dignant, by consequence,
at the insults
and injustice he imagined himself to have
received, in consequence of his arrlnge ,
meat with Johnson. "I fancied the
country wanted peace," he exclaimed. "If
they don't, let them raise more soldiers."
The General Lomplained, and doubt
less with some truth, if not justice, that
thO government bad never distinctly ex
plained to him whet policy it desired to
have pursued. " I asked Mr. Lincoln ex
plicitly, when I went up to City Point,
whether he wanted me to capture .led.
Davis or bit him escape, and in reply he
told me a story."
That "story" may now have a histori
cal value, and I give it therefore as Gen.
Sherman said Mr. Lincoln told it—only
premising that it was a lavorite story with
Mr. Lincoln, which he told many times,
and in illustration of many points of pub
lic policy.
I'll tell you, General," Mr. Lincoln
was said to have begun, " I'll tell you
what I think about taking Jeit Davis.—
Out in Sangamon county there was an old
temperance lecturer who was very strict in
the doctrine of total abstinence. One day,
after a long ride in the hot sun, he stop
ped at the home of a friend who proposed
making him a lemonade. As the mild
beverage was being mixed, the friend in
sinuatingly asked if he wouldn't like just
the least drop of something stronger, to
brace up his nerves after the exhausting
heat and exercise. " No," replied the
lecturer, "I couldn't think of it; I'm op
posed to it on principle. But," he added,
with a longing glance at the black bottle
that stood conveniently at hand, " if you
could manage to put in a drop unbeknotanat
to me, I guess it wouldn't hurt me very
mach!"
" Now General, Mr. Lincoln' is said to
have concluded, " I'm bound 'to oppose
the escape of Jeff_ Davis; but if you coula
manage to let him slip out unbeknownst
like, I guess it wouldn't hurt me very
much 1"
"And that," exclaimed Gen: Sherman,
"is all I could get out of the Government
as to what its policy was concerning the
rebel leaders, till Stanton assailed me for
Davis' escape 1"
" I hope you will be able to support
me," said a young lady to her intended,
while walking out one evening, during a
slippery state of the sidewalk,
•• Why, .ye-yes," said the hesitating
swain, " with some little assistance from
your father."

pursuits. We do not fear such a result.
A good soldier cannot be a bad citizen ;

soldiery than was embraced in the Uaioa
armies. They wore good soldiers, because
they were good citizens; and they will
resume their places in society without
even a ripple on the surface. But they ,
will need kind friends. They must have
aid to procure employment, and let every
faithful Man see at once that the returned
soldiers in his neighborhood are proffered
suitable labor. It. would be heartless in
gratitude on the part of the people whose
tiberties have been preserved by the valor
of our volunteers, should any soldier seek
employment in vain and sutler want in
the land he has rescued from the perils of
treason by his sacrifices. Let one VA all.

to the heroes of the Republic in our taidst.-4
We owe it to them to do so, and iet

ALWAYS ROOM UP Srants.—A young wan

Daniel Webster:
"Mr. Webster, I understand that the
profession of law is quite full, and that
there are more lawyers than are needed ;
do you think there is any chance for me ?"
"There is always room up stairs," was
the reply—and as true as it was ingenious.,
Only a few persons can reach the high
places, and these are always in great de
mand—" there is alwayis room enough up
stairs." First-class farmers and mechan

always lied plenty of work and good pay;
Whatever.calling you choose, and it mat
ters little if it bean honest one, resolve
to go into an 'upper story, but don't try
to jump there by a single leap, or you
may fall disabled. Rather begin at the
bottom of the ladder, and patiently step
up on each round.
