SOUTH WINDS.
[Our readers will be pleased to have placed be
fore them another beautiful poeui from the pen of
" Stella of Laekawana"—one of the most valued of
our fair contributors.]— Wayne Co Herald.
'Tis a sorrowful tale ye breathe, south winds—
A sorrowful tale to me '
Not from the plains where the palm-tree blooms,
In the sunshine by the sea ;
And the pomegranate blossoms hide away,
Should there come such plaints to me !
Ye tell of a beautiful clime, south winds!
Of a beautiful, sparkling Ihme,
Where the sun pearls drop o'er the melting fruit,
In a long, bright summer time *
And the ringing voices of countless birds,
With your own low cadence chime :
Ye hint, on your winding way, south winds,
Of many a trodden plain,
Where the fiercest hate of the human breast,
Gloatheth strangely o'er the slain ;
And the corses ofaiingled heroes sleep
Away from the bayonet pain !
Whisper me tidings glad, south wtnds!
Whisper me tidings glad!
For the cries of tny country hannt my rest,
Till my very soul grows mad !
My dreams are of woman's tearful face,
And of warriors, stern and sad.
Hum me a lighter song, south winds!
Hum me a lighter song !
For my life is as woary as life can be,
With the wailings of human wrong;
Rest on my waiting cheek, south winds !
And hum me a lighter song !
Tell me, do lovers sigh, south winds,
Tell me do lovers sigh,
When the moon in her radiance, sails down
The bluo of tho Southern sky 7
And wan ler on, in her witching light,
Where the waltzing rill leaps by 7
Tell me, do maidens pine, soi th winds !
Do beautiful maidens pine,
In the shadowy groves wber i the myrtle? creep,
At the feet of tho proud-necked vine ;
! Where the blood of a thousand veins gush out.
In the richest and rodest wine 7
In the bright land, whence ye sped, south winds,
In the land from whence ye sped,
Do the blushing ro?es ever fade
O'er the couch of tha lovely dead,
Or the trill of tho blue-birl plaintive grow
'Along the music-leaves o'erhead 7
On my cheek, yet oiwe more He, south winds !
On my ehcek caressingly lio !
And warbl • the tendorest, fondest words,
With a low, responsive sigh,
For the Icmeliest thing on this loveless earth—
On this wild, wide shore, am I.
Ilosaiiun the Ugly One.
FROM THE FRENCH.
" But look, then," said Mrs. Moore, tohh r
husband, '• how ugly that little one i 6. Is
she not William ?"
And Mr, Moore who was sitting in a rock,
rig-chair, amusing himself with poking the
fire, laid down the tongs he held, and grave
ly answered his wife :
•' But, my dear, your have already <aid so
one hundred tunes, and were you to say it
one hundred times, more, Rose would not be
come less ugly for your saying so."
Rosanna was ; little girl of about fourteen.
She was their only child, and, to do her moth
er justice, was realty very ugly—nay almost
revolting; with her little gray eyes,flai nose,
large mouth, thick protruding lips, red, hair,
and, above all a form remarkably awry.
Rose was, then, very ugly—but 6he was a
sweet girl nevertheless. Kind and intelligent
she possessed a mind of the highest order.
Nature seemed to have compensated her with
every good quality of the heart for the want
of every beauty of person.
The poor little thing was profoundly hurt,
as she listened to her mother's observation,
"Oh, you little fright, you will never get a
husband."
Eight o'clock struck: Mrs Moore was
was sorely vexed.
" Go to bed, Rosanna."
Tremblingly the approached her
mother, to give her the kiss of good night.
" 'Tis useless, you little monster," said her
mother.
A tear rolled from the little ones eye She
hastily wiped it away, and turning to her
father, presented him the yet humid cheek
He kissed her tenderly.
" I am not altogether miserable," she mur
mured, leaving the room-
Retiring to her chamber, she commenced
embroidering a scarf, and worked thus, part
of the night, for she desired to present it to
her mother, when she arose in the morning.
The clock struck twelve. She had just
finished, and putting it by, the little girl
calmly resigned herself to rest. Her repose
was undisturbed.
On the morrow Rose presented the scaif to
her mother. What was the paiu the little
one experienced, when her mother received it
coldly, and expressed none of those tender
sentiments which were to have been the
sweet little one's reward.
Her, eye* by chance, glanced over a neigh
boring mirror.
" Yes," she said, internally."! am ugly—
they are right," and she sought iu her own
head to fiqd a remedy tor ugiiaesi.
"TO SPEAK HIS THOUGHTS IS EVERY FREEMAN'S RlGHT."—Thomas Jefferson.
TUNKHANNOCK, PA., WEDNESDAY, JUNE 10, 1863.
And then in the world—new pangs wound
ed the little ugly one's heart. A first im
pression alienated ali the young girls of her
own age— but then she was so good so amia
ble, so amusing, that they approached, then
listened, and then loved her. Now, indeed,
our little one was happy.
One day Mr. Moore went home in a violent
passion, and became, in consequence of some
trifling prevarication, highly incensed against
his wife. Their domestic felicty was troub
led for eight long days,—for eight long days
Mrs. Moore was continually crying. Rosan
na in vain racked her young brains to discov
er why—but her father still continued angry,
and her mother was still continually weeping
At last she reflected in her mind how to
reconcile them.
Thev were all three seated in the parlor—
Mr. Moore was arranging the fire when this
was concluded, he threw the tongs from hi uo,
snatched a book from the mantle, and opened
it abruptly ; but, after a moment's perusal,
he it again, in a violent humor, cast a
fierce glance at his trembling wife, aud hur
riedly rose from his chair
Rosantia, deeply moved, clasped her arm s
about his neck as he was about to rise and
affectionately caressed him. lie could no?
reject her innocent coaxing, and the little
girl, thinking she had succeeded in touching
his heart, took in her hands the moistened
handkercheif wherewith her mother had been
drying her weeping eyes, and dried them a
second time therewith; she then tenderly
embraced her mother, who returned her af
fectionate caress with all a mother's fondness-
The parties being now favorably disposed'
naught remained but to establish the peace
This was no easy inattei—neither would
make, the first overture—and without the
penetration of little Rose the reconciliation
would not have taken place.
fjhe took her lather,a hand between her
own little hands, and pressed it to her bo
som : she then took her mother's hand and
joined it to her father's as it lay on her heart
Human pride could resist no longer—the al
icnated parents rose at the eatne rnumeut and
embraced each other.
From that hour Rose was the idol of them
both.
Six years after this, Rcsauna, the ugly Rj
sanna, was the ornament of every society to
which hei mother presented her. Amiable,
witty, and observing, her conversation was
universally courted.
One summer evening, the sun, which, dur
ring the day, had shed over nature an intense
heat, had just disappeared, leaving the hori
zon covered with long wide bands of red—
clouds more and more dark were heaping
themselves on the eastern sky—the atmos
phere was suffocating, and one would deem
the earth returning to the sun the heat she
had been receiving during the day. All was
heavy and weary—the air inhaled seemed
rather to suffocate than nourish. A drowsy
languor overcame every one.
In a saloon, whose every window was
thrown open, might be seen gliding, here and
there, in the darkened light, groups of young
females, whose white dresses, slightly agita
ted by the rising breeze of the evening, offer
ed something mysterious and poetical where
en the imagination loved to dwell. A low
laughing whisper was then heard, like the
soothing murmur of some distant rivulet. A
young woman, seated before a piano was ex
pressing her heart's sentiments by an extem
porary melody, now smooth and tender, now
deep and trembling.
No more whispering, but a general silence
took place, for here was a celestial sympho
ny, a seraph's song.
Lord Underwood, a fine blue eyed young
nobleman, was so deeply touched by the melo
dy, that his frame seemed agitated by a mo.
mentary convulsion. Ila listened to the an
gers voice, so softly harmonizing with the
tones of the instrument, and felt an indescib
able sensation thrill througli his frame.
Tho music ceased, but the sweet voice still
vibrated on Underwood's ear, and there was a
charm in the witty and original trifle to
which he listened, that transfixed him where
he stood.
" How beautiful must that young girl be,"
thought Underwood. Ilappy the man on
wham may fall her choice,"
and he involuntarily sighed.
Suddenly lights were brought in. The
young woman was the ugly Rosanna.
Lord Underwood was stupefied—he closed
hi"i eyes, but the charm of that voice haunted
his memory. He gazed on her a second time
and he found her less ugly ; and Rose was
indeed, less ugly. The beouties of the mind
seemed transferred to her person ; and her
gray eyeß small as they were, expressed won
derfully well her internal sensualities.
Lord Underwood wedded Rosanna, and be.
came the happiest of men in toe possession of
the kindest and most loving of women.
Beauty deserts us, but virtue and talents,
the faithful companions of our lives, accom

From tho Metropolitan Record
"NOBODY'S HURT.
Two year 3 ago the United States were at
the summit of earthly prosperity, Kingdoms
gray with centuries sought its alliauce, na
tions whose record was the history of civili
zation, gazed with wonder on the new star
that appeared in the poli'ieal firmament the
oppressor looked to it with wondering dread,
and the oppressed wilh yearning love and
reverence. In every tongue it was a syno
nym for freedom, and its example fired the
heart and aerved the arm of struggling pa
triots in every laud.
America !—the very name suggested im
ages of smiling peace and plenty, a land flow
ing with milk and honey, a people prosper
ous and contented—honored abroad and hap
py at home. No citizen of Rome, in Rome's
palmiest days, bur* a prouder title than he
who failed frtui the Republic of the West.—
Then an American citizen meant a freeman—
one who owned no lord, " saving the Lord on
high," who held his rights at the option of
no petty despot, who owed allegiance only
to his country, and fealty only to his God.
From Maine to Texas, from the Atlantic to
the Pacific seaboard, resounded the hutn of
thriving industry, for peace was within our
borders, and we were at peace with the world
without. Two short years ago we might
have defied the world iu arms, now we trem
ble at the thought of intervention. Two
short years ago the complications in Europe
an polities were of no account to us, save
when our spmpatliies were aroused by the
gallant struggle of some oppressed nationali
ty ; now we look to those uprismgs as a prov
idential diversion in our favor, aud calculate
the eifect they will have on the duration and
ultimate result of our war of the sections.—
Why is this ? and why is there sorrow in
our dwellings and walling throughout the
land ? " Nobody's hurt"
" Nobody,s hurt!" Yet, on tho plains
and in the valleys of Virginia, fell thousands
upon thousands of American citizens, whose
death left a gap in many a fireside circle, an
aching void in many a desolate heart, who
died without religious consolation and med
ical aid—without the soothening ministra
tion of friends or the loving care of kindred
amid the horrors of baule,with the sound
of carnage, or the rush of charging squad
rons, or the groans of wounded comrads in
their eat s with the earth for a pillow and
the wind for a requinm.
" Nobody's hurt !" Yet, from the waters
of the Mississippi,from the harbor of Charles
ton, and from the waves of the Ocean and the
Gulf comes up a gurgling cry, heard faintly
and at intervals amid the iron storm that
lashes the waters into frenzy and gives the
'ie direct to the axiomed untruth.
" Nobody's hurt" Yet every day onr for
ces dwindle and our Army of tho Dead in
creases ; for death has issued a Conscription
hill and he draws his quota chiefly from our
great military centre.
"Nobody's hurt 1" Yet there is grief in
wooden shanties and brown-stone
in town and country, at home and abroad .
Our t roubles have paralyzed the manufac
tures of England ; they nave discouraged the
commerce of France; they have violently
changed the course of European emigration.
But what of that? "Nobody's hurt!"
North and South are bleeding at every pore ;
tie life of the nation is oozing out by
drop ; immense tracts are laid waste ; fertile
districts dtpopulatde ; the national prestige
is lost; the national credit is dostroye :d the
national honor tarnisned;but, "nobody's hurt'
That glorious anti-Climax re-assured us.—
" NOBODY'S HURT !" Ilark how the echoing
chorus swells from Manassas aDd Fredericks
burg, frotn Shiloh and Antietatu,fruin Vicks
hurg and New Orleans,from the Potomac and
the Mississipp. "NOBODY'S HURT!'
Tell it to that miserable woman with her help
jes starving family, tell it to those orphans
thrown upon the cold charity of an unfeeling
world ;or that old man trembling on the
brink of the grave ;or to those troops of
maimed and wounded soldiers who are thrown
hack upon their State like so much damaged
goods—tell them if you dare, that "nobody's
hurt. " That woman's husband went down in
the ill-fated Cumberland those chdderen's fa
ther fell at Edwards Ferry, that old man's
sole support was trampled under the hoofs of
Stuart's cavalry, that wonnded 6oldier lost
his arm where many a gallant comrade lost
his life, on the banks of the bloody Rappa
hannock. Tell them "nobody's hurt."
And when you have had the moral hardi
hood to do that, then turn to the Administra
tion, every member of which from the Presi.
dent down to the lowest officer has lost char
acter and reputation, the respect of the civili
zed world, aud the regard of their fellow-cit
izens— lo6t not only political capital, but po
litical life—and tell them "nobody's hurt."—
It is probable they could understand the
force of the saying better to-day than two
short years ago. Then they were starting on
their four years cruise elate and sanguine; now
they lie Btranded on the breakers ' and the
good ship Constitution battered on all sides,
the crew fearfully diminished, the supplies
gone, the reckoning lost. Now ring in their>
ears the mocking cry wifch which they etatred
„ Nobody's hurt"
THE SOLDIERS AND THE "LOYAL"
LEAGUERS.
The New York " Loyal" Leaguers sought
to make their demonstration, last week, at
Utica. formidable and " taking by parading
the ret urned soldiers in their ranks, and by
the lavish use of free tickets succeeded in
taking with them from New York about 300
which number was somewhat increased on
the route to Utica. The soldiers, generally,
turned up their noses at the whole affair,
and seemed to comprehend it all by instinct.
Moreover, they were not backward in dis
senting from and denouncing the aims of the
political schemers who had them in tow.—
The correspondence of the Herald has the
following picture of the doings at Utica:—
The procession of soldiers and citizens was
formed about half past eleven, near the rail
road depot, the soldiers, numbering about
six hundred, in front, Colonel McQuade, who
has, aftei a gallant service of two years—one
year as acting Brigadier—just returned from
the war, in command' About a thousand
citizens were also in the procession. They
■lurched to Chancellor Square, where the
ovation was held. The soldiers were, on
their arrival there, treated to a sumptuous
feast, prepared by the ladies of Utica.
In the meantime meetings were organized
at three stands. The officers at each stand
were principall) Seward men ; 60 were tno?t
of the speakers. Governor Seymour was
denounced for his Vallandighara letter, and
the arrest of the latter gentleman approved.
The most bitter speeches were those of Wil
mot, of Indiaua, one of the leaders of the
Know Nothing movement, and that of Ly
man Tremaine. Both were quite bitter. *
While the latter was speaking, a company
of soldiers worked their way into the crowd,
and began an incessant cheering for McClel
lan- Word was sent to Col. McQuade that
the soldiers were trying to break up the
meetiug. He went immediately to see what
the trouble was, and found that they were
cheering for McClciian. Ho told them that
it was very nice to cheer for " Little Mac,"
but complaints were made that they were
breaking up the meeting. At that they com
menced cheering for Col- Mequade. Similar
demonstrations were made .at the other
stands. The cry was raised that they were
a lot of drunken soldiers, but with the ex
ception of two or three, whoever states tnat.
utters a base calumny against the brave sol
diers and heroes of many hard fought battles.
****** *
A recess was taken from about five o'clock
until evening. A lot of soldiers immediately
took possession of one of the stands, cheer
ing for McClellan and praising him as a
General : declaring him to be the only man
that could lead the Army of the Potomac on
to victory ; denouncing in bitter terms the
politicians in Washingtgn, Congressmen and
Senators, as opposing McClellan because he
was settling the war in a business-like inau
ner, and was interfering in their schemes to
make capital out of it. They were especial
ly bitter on the radicals iu CoDgress and the
Committee on the conduct of the War.
The remarks of the different soldiers on
these points were greeted with great applause
by their comrades. Some of them declared
that many of their comrades wers butchered
at Fredericksburg to satisfy the intrigues of
the politicians. " Down with the Washing
ton political conspiratoisf and others
would cry, " Give us McClellan to lead, and
wp will reiuru to the war."
This demonstration by the soldiers wa6
kept up for nearly an hour in that style. It
in fact, seemed as though they could not say
too much in praise of "Little Mac," or de
nounce in bitter enough terms the in
trigues against hitn at Washington.
I heard of numerous other instances of
soldiers manifesting enthusiasm for McClcl
lan, but will mention but one or two as be
ing significant. Whilst Mr. Bruce was
speaking at one of the stands, a soldier in an
officer's uniform mouuied a barrel aud de
clared this gathering a Abolition sell: that
he had not heard a word from the speakers,
and then commenced cheering fsr McClellan.
The soldiers of the Tenth Regimeut rallied
around hiiu and joiued iu the cheers. They
kept the matter up for some time, cheering
first for McClellau and then Porter. The
result was the crowd around the stand near
ly all left, and they were obliged to send for
the band, who played the " Red, White and
Blue," before the audiance would return.
Their cheers were interspersed with groans
for the politicians. Mr. Townsend was also
interrupted in a similar way.
During the recess some of the Zouaves
waited upon General Nye at the hotel, and
told him that the only way to put down this
rebellion was to place McUlellan at the head
of the army, and that it was his (Nye's) du
ty to tell those gathered here so. Hundreds
of other instances of this kind took place.—

There, reader, is but a few of the names
under which the " Loyalists" of to-day have
flourishes, in attempting to overthrow the
Democracy and the principles of our govern
ment. From the beginning they have had
the same intention, and that is the establish
ment of a monarchy. They have ever, as
to-day, been despisers of the Constitution of
the United States, violators of law and OJ
der, advocates of mobocracy, supporters of
the suppression of the freedom of speech and
of the press, and in favor of a military des
potism, and the social and political equality
of the negro with the white. Every inteili- "
gent honest, man must, by this time, agree,
in our opinion, with the Quaker, who, on be
ing urged by a leading Abolitionist to join
the Union League, replied :
" Friend, thou changest thy name too oft
en ; I have known thee as a Whig, as a Free
Soiler, as a Native American, as a Know-
Nothing, as a sneerer at the Union, as a
friend of the Union, as a Loyal Leaguer, and
thou recollectest how many more titles, and
I cannot trust thee. When brother Obed
fell tram grace, aud became a rogue, he chan
ged his name ; and I have found that when
ever men design making their living by dia
honest means they are always likely to do '
the same. If thou dest ever adopt one name
and set of principles, and hold on to them
for fifty years, as the Democrats have done,
I may begin to trust thee."— Erchangs.
yy We are in pessession of an infallible
recipe for making a lady's cheeks red with

us know, that we may publish Snooks as un
