WIE 6 I I IE3I [:ER. The burning heats of „Summer are giv ing place to 'the cool bracing air of Au tumn. The summer harvests are gath ered, the barns are full of hay and grain, and'the overflowing abundance stands in stacks and ricks, upon the meadow. The bard Tressing work of the season is over, add we begin to take things a little leis urely. The corn has attained its growth, and the kernels are beginning to glaze. The potatoes, if full grown, keep safely in the hill: The apples aro turning_ red and yellow upon the trees, and the lower bending of the limbs shows that every day is, adding to the weight of the fruit. There c ,rather gain than loss in delaying for .1.-few days, the work that must be done. .There is'new time to attend to the little jobs that haVe had to lie over dur ing Summer; to make fences, to ditch, and drain, to dig muck, and make cow post--profitable work . always on hand upon the " farm. Those not driven' by wheat sowing have time to review the season's toils, to project improvements, and•to enjoy•life. There is laerhap n 4 class in the com munity that, suffer 6o tittle in the preseni troubled tiMei, as the farmers. , Outside of the immediate ,tieater of the war, life moves on in its usual channels upon the - ' '•,;' • _- -- .- --- .----- • - F , - - 1, -- _ --- - L - - -- '';'':- '' ,----,----- _ 7 '- --- - -,-• ,-- ~ . -,-.- - ct '-z- , - , -. ,- ' ,1 .- - 1-' ; , -- - - - -1,' , - , -- ',-'. - - I t i l ; '- ' - i ~ , . i . , • • ,i ; . ;,, - ' I I I I; ; - ,' , , 1" ''• - ;111.1 ';',l . • ~ , \ of__-,-,.`-: ~1 4 ; .1•1',.;,.. -.--".. -, 11 1 1 ' -= • - - 1 .- '-• • I - , - • - -* . • I ; I 1 ' . 11 '1' 1 1,•. . •-- 1 :‘,'.1 , 1 .1 , : -. i - -•'' . , ;.; . ;.! .. -' ''. - -.. -._ . • ' off. 11 -- - - - -'" ' ' I - VA ' ',. t i ' i I 1 '',' '- - '''; .

It has seriously ; ,interrupted business, and multitudes are thrown out of employment. - There all the exalt& ment, as well as "the pomp and circum stance of glorious war,' is. felt. But up on the farm,lone would hardly know the convulsion through ivhich the country is passing, but for the newspapers. At all fillies the farmer's life 'flows more smoothly,'and peacefully, than that of other men.: There is in it more of sol id comfort. ' The scenes in which be min gles, and the 'objects of his 'daily contem plation, are calculated to make him cheer ful and happy. Nature in all its fresh ness and beauty is ever spread out before him. It is not his genteel beast that by never sees the sun. rise I The morning's prime is not to him a vulgai: hour. He is up with the lark, and hears that choral song at early dawn, with which ,tl4e birds begin their day. He. beholds the first streak of light, and the heavens passing through all the changes -of Color—sober '7 purple, saphire, crimson, to the full effulgence of the risen sun. There is joy in beholding these scenes,! with 'every sense' fresh from invigorating sleep. The husbandman is much' more inde pendent in his circumstances than other men. Very generally, in this country at least ; he owns the so l be tills, in fee sim ple. 'The roof that shelteni his familY," the barn that protects his crops and cat tle, the acres that yield theni sustenance, arc his for a pos:session. He is made as secure in the enjoyment of his _home, as it is nossible for mortals to be. No land- tord may turn him out at, the close of the year. Every improvement upon his premises, is for his benefit, and . that of his family.. ' There is joy in the owner— ship of soil, somewhat difficult to analyze, but a reality, as all know who have expe- Yienced it. The affections cling to it quite as-tenaciously as to living things. With many, , local attachments are much strong r than the love of animals. They can substitute. one _horse for another, or one cow for another, without any painful !emotion, but the disruption 'of home ties would be felt as a life-logz. calamity. There is literally no spot, like home to them. Their affections take \clot in the soil of their birth place, with every arch era they Plant, with every ornamental tree tkey set by the road side. The home feeling _rows with every crop they crilti: rate, with ecery fence they; put up, and with every building they erect. -Here they are in a good measure inde pendent of the world. The farm yield's them almost every necessity of life, with a superabundance to exchange for its su perfluities. This was more the case in the good old days of homespun, than at present, and if necessity ever requires it, we can go back again to the cards and the spinning wheel, to :thet hand shuttle and the loom. It adds nota little to the comfort of life, to know that our daily bread does not depend upon the caprice or necessities of an employer: No change in the times deprives the farmer. of °cud potion. His work is laid out before hieri for years, and he knows that as long as the soil yields its increase, and he can work, there will be meal in' his bin, corn iu his Crib, and pork. in !his barrel. His sheep will raise wool, and ;IA meadows mix, whether cotton is king or not. The doors of the school-house will be open for the 'Children, whether the temple of Jan us is elesedor open. The cities, may be swept by the! Ciesolatrens of war, but-the farms can hardly be yuined. The world must eat, and while wheat and corn grow, and calves and pigs make beef and pork, he will have something to Sell and a mar ketfor his products. It one of the misfortunes of most other callings, that they are dependent for the necessities Of existence. The laborer has nothing but labor to sell, and when that fails 'his con dition is very sad. I It is! another of the: comforts of the farmer's calling, that . his labors are-light er than those of Most Other Men. His work is not nearly, as exhausting to body and mind, as that of the merchant, or of people who follow trades; the greater strength and vigor, and -the better health of farmers, as' a class, are proof positive. They have wholesome food, fresh milk and ,butter, fresh meats and vegitables, and eggs laid in the i nest ;and upon the table the seine , They pursue' their toils in the opitn air, and for the most part with nialyc k ch a tax upon the Mus-1 cies as aide digestion. There is no over working of the brain, no wearing anxiety about the uncertainty of trade, no bank notes to Meet. at two o'clock, or be a bank rupt in , fortune. His bank of earth re ceives all his deposits; and' is allays ready , to pay dividends. Look at that bin of corn, yellow as gold, and always 'exchange able for it. Look at those porkers with broad backs, arid sleek sides, every one a walking-money bag, and gitiwing heavier everyday.' Look at theselat cattle, and that span of Black - Hawks.

McClellan. ' "When Gen. McClellan.was a resident of this City, he kept up •an active corres pondence with his army associates,' and among them, with Beauregard, whom "he had known intimately. At that time, a great filibustering expedition to Central America m was contemplated by the restless spirits of thelouth, and Beauregard he came one of'the chief conspirators. BLit , he knew that Walker, then in full WS- Sem, wr- not the man for leader; and he had not that entire confidence in himself that would justify his taking the cons= wand; He applied , to McCiellan,offering him the most flattering inducements that could be held out—the leadership with. arbitrary powers, active support through out theSouth,,the lion's share of the'ex pected spoil, and the military dictator ship of this to be conquered province—if he would engage in the enterprise. This offer was summarily rejected; bat was [ renewed again and ag ain with new tempt ations, until McCle llan peremptorily for-1 bade any further referende to it. - In t e correspondence, Beauregard admitted th military superiority of McClellan, aUdes pressed himself thoroughly satisfied wit a subordinate position in his command an estimate of our young General's worth that expected events will abundantly prove."—Chicago Tr:bune. - Gen. McClellan is in the habit of rid . ing around occasioniy in citizen's dress, accompanied by a few of his staff. A few days ago he was 'Walking- through one of the encampments, across the PotoMac, and passing the rear of the tents he saw a bucket of coffee standinc , near -a fire. He asked what it was, and one ,of the soldiers, said "Coffee," "It looks more like slops," he replied. "Oh, said 'the soldier, "it's not fit- to drink, but we have to put up with it, and our food is not a bit better." "Well, whose fault is it ?" he asked. "Oh, our Quartermaster is drunk most of the time; and when not he is studying how to cheat." . McClellan passed an, and seeing more evidence of the dirty and slovenly manner in which the Quartermaster conducted his opera tions in his tent, he accosted him with the remark that the men were complain ing of bad treatment from him. The Quartermaster flew into a passion, iand swore it was none of his business, a 34 he 'had better not come sneaking around try .ing to make . "-chief. McClellan, an swered him citing ." he had better be cautious ow he . ed. The Quarter mast eplied, ho are you, thatlyou emu - . = much apparent authority r' "I am George B. McClellan, and you 'can pack up your traps and leave 1" The Quartermaster was struck dumb, atidMc- Clellan turned and left him. , That eve ning the Quartermaster left to the tune of the "Rogue's March," played by 8'616 1 of the boys who got wind of it. They now have a Quartermaster who doesll not ; get "drunk and cheat," and that regi ment would risk their lives at ,the ean non's mouth for the man who does care how the men are provided for. ' The story has been 'circulated' around some of the camps, and the officers; re now always on the look out for the Gen eral, and of course do not have too much lying around loose:—N. s ir. Tribune: Sir A gentlemen tells this story of a little drummer boy. He went on the ship to 'Fortress Monroe, with his regi ment, and just at evening, overcome with the fatigues 'of the day, he had laid down upon the deck, and had fallen asleep. The dews were falling. The Colonel came along and shook him by the, shoul der, and told him he would take 'oold if he continued to lie • there, and adiised him to' go below, and go 'to his rest for the night. As be was getting up, his Bible fell from his pocket upon the deck. He picked it up and replaced it. Some kind hand—;perhaps a mother or a Sunday. school teacher—had gifou him that Bible. He went below and prepared himself for his bed. When re*, he keeled lown —many loud-talking men standing around —put 'his hands together in the attitude Of prayer, and poured out his heart si lently to God. lie heeded not the noise around him. In a moment all was buShed; the company being overawed by the ;con duct of the boy, reverently stood silent until he had finished his prayer. ,; MAKE THE SACRITICH.—To obey' law of right--to follow out the la*of love, is only difficult because we feel, in every instance of being called upon SO to do, that we are called upon to make s l ime Fierifiee of ourselves.
