All gone but you and I I What do we here, when In their graves Our old compaulons lie I Not suddenly they wont away, But slowly, °nob) , one; Till now we Idly gaze around And coo that all are gone. Closer and closer every year The narrowing circle grow; Until, of all that cheerful band, flat I rentair and you. And thinking of our youth, old friend And all our lifelong years My half numb'd heart almost o'ortlows In a burst of woman tears. For all things for the worse, old fylend I Scorn strangely changed since then ; Tho women's faces were more fair, And heartier were the mon. The seasons are all altered, too— Lena genial—nay, itulte cold: Why, Hummer scarce in warmer now Than winter was at old : And thinking of the past, old friend! And thinking of the mot, A selfish wish Springs In my hea6, That I should not be last: But that you, old and trusted Hood! Should stand by my death-bed, iteroloe the last look from my ey3s, And close them when I'm dead.

For the '• Cartimle.floruld." Letter from the Gold Regions BANNACIC, IDAIIO TERRITORY; July. 4th, 11363. THE NEW MINF.S Deer Herald —Barwick has ceased to be the-western teriminus he w fra-veit ed Toad to the gold mities of Idaho Territoty. An other rich Cachi of Nature has been found seventy five miles beyond us, ou the Sticking 'Water, a branch of the Madison fork. About six weeks ago, four ragged, dirty, half starved men, mounted on ponies and driving before them, three pack ahimals, mode their appearance in our main street, late in the afternoon. Every one knew they were returned IDspeelots, but who they were—from what part ,f the country—how long out—and whether they had struck any thing," the question from the crowd, who im. mediattly surrounded them, were unable to elicit When they did get ready to answer questions, they merely stated that they had found something good enough for them" that they would return to their discovery iu a few days, and any who wished might go book with them. But they would not say how far, or in what direction the mines were. In thirty six hours, the discoverers, who had become much dilapidated by their their three months prospecting tour, were new rigged, and provisioned, and on their way back, accompanied by upwards four hundred men, in wagons, mounted, or on foot with bedding and provisions packed on their tricks. When some forty miles out, the discoverers called a halt and refused to advance any further until the entire company bad agreed in writing that they should have two Claims of one hundred feet each, freang on the stream and extending on either side from base to base of the hills. The distance from Ban. neck proved to be about two days journey with an ox team ; though horsemen htfte since travelled it in one day Arrived upon the ground, the party found that the only water available for washing was a stream containing not more than a dozen good sluice heads equal to about 250 inches of water, issuing under a six inch pressure, from a vessel. All who had picks, shovels and at once went to prospecting: and as usual the richest do posits were found not to he on or adjoining the discovery claims—The prospects ranged from live cents to three and four dollars to the pan. The diggings have turned out to be richer and more extensive than at first supposed.— Nearly half of our population have gone over; and there are now as many men at the "Now Mines" as at these. The claims aro yielding from ten dollars to five hundred dollars a day to the hand. The richest claims are, of course, not the most plenty. Put. Keyes is clearing over 'one hundred dollars a day.— This poor Irishman who has livedin the most abject poverty For years, has in a day become a rich man. Col. Wood &Co , are taking gut. from WO to $OOO a day. A. few others are doing as well or nearly as well. ' Many have failed to secure claims, but are diligently prospecting t he country round about, in hopes of finding other diggings. A regular express rune between Bannock and the "New Mines" carrying passengers and packages. • The deputy Sheriff. Dillingham was shot to pieces, there, - last Tuesday, by - three Men,— The crowd determined to hang them, but on the way to the gallows, relented and let them go. rm. flans, who is judge of morals as well as money, says that being tender to another man's wife is not a legal tender,' We accept hii opinion—though wo have po interest in the question. Envy is unquestionably a WO conipli Mor!t, but a most ungracious 'ono.

CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE At a very early hour of a fine autumnal day, a very pretty young lady, expensive ly attired in a walking-dress of a fashon that passed for the latest Parisian, was daintily- pickirrg-her - wareveretie "or crossings of Broadway, anxious to pre serve the immaculateness of the gaiter blots, and perhaps to display an ankle that might have served as a model to Canova. Just as she reached the oppo site sidetialk, her foot slipped on the curbstone, moist with Croton, and she would have fallen had she not been caught by a young man, smartly attired, who happened to be passing at the time. A mutual recognition instantly took place. " Why, Mr. Bliffin, is that you ?" ex claimed the young lady. " Nothing shorter, Jenny," answered the smart young man. " What a coin cidence I I was just thinking of you when you tumbled into my arms." " Perhaps you think 1 slipped on pur pose, Mr. Impudence," retorted the young lady. "Nothing of the kind," said the smart young man. "But what brings you from A lbatty -? -Have - you - left your" place, us~l have wine ?" "0, no, indeed," said the girl ; Miss. Jefferson is as kind to me as ever, and so is her good old daddy Indeed, she has promised me a thousand dollars on the day of her marriage with young Popkins," " A thousand dollars I" exclaimed Mr. Bliffin. 'O, Jenny, how I adore you ! When will you be mine ?" " Just as soon as ever my young missis becomes Mrs. Popkins." " But that's settled, isn't it ?" " I am afraid not," said Al iss Jenny, shaking her head. " You know the old gentleman's regard for truth, and you know what a habit Popkins has of fib bing. To be sure, he only Wilt; white lies, but he's a terrible romancer:" " Well, what of that ?" " Simply this : Old Jefferson, who ab bores anything like falsehood, is deter mined to put him to a terrible proof— He swears that if, in the course of to-day, he catches Popkins in a single fib, he shall never have his daughter." " And of course your thousand dollars is all moonshine !" said Mr. Bliffin.— " We must warn the young gentleman." " Impossible, and useless if possible," said the pretty chambermaid. "He is now with Miss. Emma and her father at the American House. Now, lam going to keep an eye on him all day, and you must help me. There's a little ante room commanding a view of their parlor, of which 1 have the key. You must be there, and see and hear everything that is going on, and be prepared to act as your quick wit - shall prompt:" " Bravo!" said Mr. Bliffin. "A thou sand dollars and a.. pretty girl are worth an effort.. Show me the .biding•place, Jenny, and I'll second yours endeavors." The ''pretty chambermaid performed her promise, and then joined her mis tress. Father-in-law that is to be," Mr. Popkins was saying as he entered, " I wish I'd known of your coming before you should have had an apartment in my house" Jenny trembled, for she knew very well that Popkins did not own a dollar's worth or real estate; 44 Your house I" exclaimed old Jeffer son. " I wasn't aware you owned a house." " The most charming_little _box:_of _a place on the Third Avenue," said Pop, kins, readily giving way to his inveterate . l►ropensity. " What did you pay for it ?" asked the old man. "Guess." • " Ten thousand dollars." I won it at a mine. Twenty dol lars a shara--what doldu think of that P' IA said. the Old gentleman,; slowly, and: eying the young oat! vegy keenla. ":111, go directly and . see I shark% helievo your good luck TEEMS:--$1,50 in Advance, or $2 within the year. DT : TRE OLD 'UN till my eyes have, evidence of it. Come, Emma, you shall go with us." " Skip—stop 1" said Pdpkins, nervous. ly. " I forgot to mention one thing : sold my house this very morning." " The deuce you did !" cried the old gentleman. " What did you get for it?" "Ten thousand dollars," replied Pop• kins, boldly. " My dear doy, I congratulate you," said the old man. " And there's some thing selfish in my joy, too ; for I am unexpectedly called on to pay a note of a thousand dollars this morning, and I have no available funds by me." " There ,again----confound my luck 1" cried Popkins. " I forgot to mention that I was in debt to the fellow who brought my place. So you you see his claim sweeps up the whole eight thou sand " " Eight thousand I Very well, you said you got ten thousand for yodr house ; you can certainly accommodate me with half the balance " "Johnson hasn't paid up yet, sir, said Popkins, involving himself deeper and deeper in the meshes of falsehood. Ern ma was very much vexed and Jenny gave up the case as hopeless. " What's to be done?" said Mr. Jeffer " Nothing that I can see but to wait for the arrival of Mr. Thompson with the monev,! said Hopkins " Thompson ! Why, you said just now his name wag Johnson I" said the old gentleman, testily. " That was- his-giving name," answer ed Popkins, hastily. " Johnson Thomp• son in full." And ho hastened to change" the subject. But the old gentleman's suspicions were now fully awakened ; and though Popkins rattled away with his usual volu bility, is intended father.in-law was quite cool and monosyllabic' in his answers. After a lapse dt some time, a waiter presented himself, and announced Mr Johnson Thompson. Popkins was as much - astoniitied - as ifliohad "called up spirits from the vasty deep," and he could scarcely reply, "show him up," in an audible manner, when in walked Mr. Bliffin, so disguised in a red wig and spectacles, that even Miss Jennysearce ly recognized him. " I be;; pardonfor intruding, Mr. Pop kins," said he, "but I only called to say the deed was all right, .and I have paid the two thousand in to your lawyer's hands.

" Give my respects to Mrs. Thompson." said Popkins, recovering his sang froid "and tell her I shan't fail to call with— with Mrs. Popkins," he added, smiling on Emma, "after the happy event." The imaginary Thompson took leave with a profusion of bows. "Ny dear boy," said old Jefferson, - Sliakitig - lian - dil With Popkins, "pardon me.

Mr. Bliffin was duly re warded for opportune "conclusive evi dence," and wade happy in the possess ion of the pretty wait'ng-titid ; and if a cloud conies over the the felicity of Mr. Popkins, it ,is only when his father-in-law urges him to wake that promised call on Mrs. Johnson Thompson. --- A Night Between Two Armies War has its comic as well as its tragic side, and among the ridiculous incidents of the war, must be counted an adventure in which I was involved one night dur ing the precipitate retreat of Gen. Pope's army from the Rappahannock to Wash ington. The army had been falling back during the day and evening, closely pressed by the enemy. I was acting as an orderly to an officer on the staff of one of the gen erals. and during the confusion of the evening's retreat, the whole staff, (with myself among them,) became in some way separated from the main force. The night was cloudy, so that there were no stars to guide 'us, and we found ourselves soon in the unpleasant predicament of not knowing where we were, nor in what direction our troops lay. Sornething,must 'be done, however, and so we started boldly along a stony nollow that ran to our right. We bad ridden along this hollow some distance without bettering our condition, or our knowledge of our whereabouts, when suddenly a sheet of flame flashed up frir an elevation on our left, and with the well known roar of artillery, a storm of balls rushed screaming over our heads. That wouldn't do; and, putting spurs to our horses, we turned sharply to the right and dashed off at full speed. But we had not gone twenty yards when a similar flash blazetl'up in our faces, and another volley of balls flew past us, coming from the op _posite_direction from, the first.---Neither would that do, and wheeling in our tracks, we made for the ravine again. As we did' so we heard the long roll beaten on each side of us, and as another batter); opened fire we realized the unpleasant fr thai wo were between two Armies—that both were blazing away at us, and-.that we hadn't the faintest idea whichwas which.. Welcoulan't stay where we Were, however, as the balls was beginning to fly among instead of over - us, and so down the,ra vine we started again. A: short dietance ahead or us a, low ferule -ran across our pathi-Captain-6----i-thre - MBeerWhose or derly I was, tried to make his horse leap Wbut to his surprise the animal baulked - . hile urging him on with voicaand spur, one-of his brother Officers called , out with a loud laugh, "Why, captain, your horse has only got three,legs; how do you ex pect him to leap . ?" I rode up and sure enough, one of the horse's hind legs was shattered by a ball. We both dismount ed—l to offer the captain my horse, when a particularly well aimed volley from one of the batteries ploived up ,tb'e ground all around and among ud. Saddles were ye- . cated in a very great hurry, and with the cry of "every man for himself," there was a general scamper for the bushes and trees. I kept ,close to the captain, and together we lay under a bush for a long time waiting for the fire to slacken. At length, getting impatient, the captain be gan to crawl-thrqugh the bushes to the battery on our right. I bad my misgiv ings about the direction we were taking, but, of course, said nothing. Soon, how ever, the captain stopped, and turning to me with an' expression of mingled impa tience and chagrin, blurted out, " Order ly, do you know where I'm going ?" " No, sir," I replied, saluting, " I don't know, but I tkink'you are going straight to the rebel lines " With an exclama tion more vigorous than classic he turned in his tracks, and we began a careful re connoisance in force towards the opposite batteries, which were still belching away for dear life. After an indeffinite scram bling and creeping, we gradually ap proached a battery from a little to one side, so as to be out of range of the guns. Balling unperceived at a safe -distance, we tried anxiously to make out the color of tlie men's coats; but the darkness of the night and the smoke that hung around the pieces prevented our distinguishing whether they were grey or blue. • Becom ing impatient, my companion shouted out, " What battery is this ?" It was an anxious ( moment and we Waited eager ly for a response '- But " Right piece fire I—left piece fire I" was the only answer that reached us between the ,roar of the guns, We ad vanced a little nearer, and again the cap tain shouted, " What battery is this ?" " Right piece fire !—left piece fire I" was again the only response we could catch. Rendered desperate the captain marched right up to within a few ,paces of the guns, strange to say unnoticed, and once more roared out, " What battery is this?" "Eh !" replied the commander of the ' piece, starting and surveying with the profoundest astonishment, the strange officer who had apparently dropped from the clouds, at his side, " why the—th New York Battery, to be sure."
