; on the sleeping village of Cheriton. It

_up the ' , long, straggling --street,• and
' made every object almost as distinctly

al liAt, they appeared very different. A
beautiful quietude, solemn, yet serene,
seemed to rest on all things. The quaint
houses, with their high roofs, and oddly
clustered chimneys, looked as if they
brooded,over the recollection of - the long
past times they bad known; and the
grand old church looked cloudy reverend,
with 'the frost-work glittering about its
Norman-,arched windows, and on the
boughs of the huge ceditr which toWered
beside the doorway. The moonbeams
lingered lovingly - about the grey walls;
the fell, too,- on the-white grave stones in
I the chuchyard, and made each ono Rhino

tittle white-draped bed, wherein lay two
young boys. One, the eldest by some
years, was asleep, and the quivering light
NI on his face—a face every lineament
which was so full of nervous energy,
that even in sleep it did not wear an ex-
' pression of repose. His brother's pale,
Hte!Mate features were, on the contrary,
distinguished by a sort of sculptural ealm.
He had a high, straight thoughtful brow,
ind that sensitive mouth, which to the
most masculine face always adds an al
most womanlike sweetness of expression.
The two boys seemed apt illustrations

thoughtfully fixed upon the sleeping face

tender impulse, his bands gently put oxide

forehead of the sleeper. ' Presently he

out at the quiet, homely scene stretched

And even while he thus gazed, and felt
and pondered in the stillness of that win
try utidni l ,ht, the stillm was broken.—
Vibrating, mi the frosty in came solemn
strains of music, played with untaught
skill on two or three . old fishioned instru
ments. It was an affluent Enulish air,
with n kind of patriarchal simplicity in its
character, half carol, half hymn, which°
harmonized well with the plaeo and the
time. As the very voice of the quaint
and peaceful village came the clear, sweet
sounds. blendin 4 like a visible acruality
with the wintrystar.sduttiu the dark sky,
with the snow covered roof.:, and walls,
and trees, and with the pure, passionless
shining- over them all.
"Laurence, wake! Listen to the waits :••
It was curie time before the subdued
voice and gentle touch disturbed the sleep
er from•his dreams. When at last he '
was aroused, he started up suddenly, cry
ing aloud—
" Who calls? Oh, Ilia is it you,"
he added in a sle, py tone. " What did

“Queer old tune, is'nt it ?'' presently
said Laurence, ” and queer old figures

street, with red nmaiA, and frozen eye

" Very well, assented the elder
boy, nipping a fresh yawn in the bud,

"'There--put your arm around me—

the world, and were battlers for fortune;
and one of them, alas! in fighting that
hard thdtt, became hardened in nature, so
that scarce a trait remained of, the gener

.chilled in the stony Tontine of that life
which is so scrupulously practical—one
might almost say, material—the life of a,
London merchant, devoted, heart and soul
to his eitlling. and to the atubitiotrof .his
class. His old instincts weie almost dead
within him; his tthl aspirations, his boy
laliprthlilections were crushed out, effaced,

It will startle the reader to learn that
General Wm. T. Sherman, the successor of
General Anderson in Kentucky, and lately
removed to Missouri, is actually insane.;,and
that he was occasionally ,in that state while
in command ofthe Department of the
Cumberland. The Cincinnatti Commercial
learns "that he at one time telegraphed to
the War Department - three times for per_
mission to evacuate Kentucky and retreat
into Indians. —lie has also, /on several
occasions. friebtened the leading Union men
of Louisvill e almost out of their wits by the
most astounding representations of the over
whehni ng force of Buckner, and the assertion
that Louisville could not be defended., The
retreat from Cumberland Gap was ono of his
mad freaks. When relieved of his com
mand in Kentuckyhe was sent to Missouri and
placed at .
thd head of a brigade at Sedalia,
where the shocking tact that he was a madman

knew to be preposterous and refifsfol t) (Nip.
