Inebriate to His sweetheart A poetaste'r became inspired, and dashed 47,1 T the following wromptu to his intended, who was slightly out of humor on account of the unpleasant odor of intoxicating liquors that frequently emanated from his breath: With pen in hand, I take my stand, To write a little ditty, Of something good, Or something rude, Or something very witty The pretty girls, With auburn curls, Aud faces sweetly smiling. Saall be the theme On which to dream— Their charms are so beguiling. The Muses wake, And Idinost break My head. while round me hover Their flapping wings, And nion - Cry brings Me hack Inv dearest lort.r. 3liss Susnn Jane, It gives me pain, And ()ft times I've been thinking, How we might live, If you'd forgive, And I would !Pre up drinking. So mote it be! Together we Shall live in fields of clover I'll change my life, And take a wife, And he a faithful lover. ATLANTA Atlanta, Ga., is the most enterprising city of the South. It contains a popula tion of nearky 30,000, composedlargelY of Northern tradesmen and mechanics. On the north cf it lies a magnificent grain oountry, the granary of the "Confeder acy," and on the south the richest cotton. fields of the South. It is the depot of wilitary manufacture for the rebels, and it is said, turns out more war implement , of a general assortment than any. city in the world. Thero aro several foundries for the manufacture of cannon, from the smallest to thelargest calibre, an immense gun fac tory, where are turned out muskets of the Springfield pattern, and pistol, shot, shell, fixed au:munition and pireussion cap manufactoyi(s, while the manufacture of wagons, ambulances, gun-carriages, and - cavalry and horse equipments, and every thing else necessary for the war, aro car tied on to an cnorwoui extent. Besides it is an important railroad centre, four roads cominunicatirq., , and forming a j unc Lion' there—tlm Western and Atlantic, the Atlantic and Montgomery, the Macon and Western, and the Georgia Railroads Though Atlanta is said to be strongly fortified by art, it is reported- to be much more assailable and less defensible than the sneeessiile positions from which the roto!s have been driven at Chattanooga, Buzzard's Roost, Dalton and Rcsaca, in the mountain fistnesses of Northern Georgia, which were almost impregnable by nature and had been fortified with great labor. Tho Colunabue (Ga.) Timez . (rebel) of April 22d, says : "The capture of Richmond would prove of greater importance to our enemies in a political point, of vja than any other jZkl.--.t.i;Prial in their posises ;,tL • - la tion, wo would fincradditional 'l,fluenot? .brought to bear ag.iiNtt us abroad ; but as a material loss its fall would in no man •nor compare with the disadvantages which would res'ilt from a defeat of General Johnston and the occupation of Georgia that would follow.

To lose the one would bt , .as the loss of a limb ; should we be driv en "from•the other it will be a terrible Llow at our roost vital point. This we must admit, and our enewy knows it." GENE. MEADE AND GRANT "Carlton," the war correspondent of the Boston Juizrizul, writing from Cold Harbor, June sth, says "While the cannonade and musketry were rolling so terribly last night, I rode up to Gen. Meade's headquarters. It was past 9 o'clock. The pile of brush on fire in front of Gen. Meade's tent lighted up the main front. Gen. Meade 'was passing up and down in front of his tent, looking now upon the ground and now upon the flashes lighting the west ern sky. 'Those .are Smith's batteries ; •those aro Russell's,' ho said, as the bat teries, one after another, opened their thunders. 'lt is going all right. I should 'like to have them try it every day and every night,' he continued, listening to the uproar. "An 'aid came in with a telegraphic clopateii.

An hour after midnight, Gem Grant was roused by Col. Rowley, of his staff, with a word of message from Gm. Meade. It proved to be a repre-- seiitathin from Warren that the men were much exausted with an urgent sugges tion that the attack be put off till six '' Tell him he may put it off till five, but by all means he must begin then ; and be sure the enemy doesn't get the initia tive." The original order was sound, for the enemy took the initiative at a quar ter before five.

WIT FROM THE PULPII : it is related of a certain New Enghind divine who flourin's.ed not many years ago, and whose matrimoniai relations were supposed not to be of the most agreeable kind, that one sabbath morning, while reading to his oongregation the parable ia!' the supper. in which occurs this passage: "and anoth er said, I have bought five yoke of oxen and I go to prove them; I pray thee have me excused. And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore cannot come" —he suddenly paused at the et.d of thi, verse, di'ew off his speAtieles, and looking round on his hearers, said, with great cm phasic: 'lle fact is my brethern, on, woman can draw a man farther from the kingdom of heaven than five yoke of ox frZ" - A celebrated general beeicging a place, the govex,nor capitulated, after a slight rebistance. When the governoi walked out, he said to the general, will confess to you, in confidence, that I only asked you to capitulate because I wanted powder."--To return your con fidence," answered the general, "I only granted your demand booause I wanted ball." EfirThe grave buries every error— covers every defect—extinguishes every resentment. From its peaceful bosom springs none but fond regrets and tender recollections. Who can look down upon the grave of an enemy, and not fool a oompunctious throb, that ho should have warred with the poor handful of earth that lies mouldering before him ?
