T&E•'QARRIEI'S ADDRESS , .
TO THR PATRONS OF THR VILLAGIR' RECORD..
Come honest old Pattlons and listen to pie,
I've, a smile for thy neighbor and a kind word for
thee,
As we bid adieu to the warlike old year,
And enter another with hearts full of cheer.
Like {he eold winds of autumn as swikly they fly
Through the vale where the leayes aye sombre and dry,
And whisper Of hope o: ruthless despair, .
Of vows that are broken, or tempests of care.
Like the leaves that are flying so yellow and. sear,
The . sports and the cares of the dying old, Year
Come up like phantoms our faults to amend,
And bid us remember the lessons they send.
. ,
. , .
tu; such musings are apt to make us feel sad, .
Oh, then tel us try and be happy and glad,
As we sit undesturbedttound the merry old hearth,
And join' in the laugh and shout of its mirth.
The dying old year has been bounteously .blest,
Our granaries filled with the choicest and best;
The reapers return from the fields that are shorn
And sing to the music of the rustling corn.
How gladly we'll welcome the frost a the snow
As it kisses.the waves of the brooks — el they flow,
Or whitens the hills with its sparkling crtst
And falls on the lake like the foam on its breast.
Who cares for the wind as bleakly it blows I
Who cares for the sleetcthe frost-surd the snows ?
When the Merchant's zeal and the liusbandman's
toil
Meets such a reward from the frutts'of the soil.
Though whining croakers complain in despair
Of everything mortal and sundry things rare,
Yet-to be truthful and candid we,surely must. boast
While we've Corn-cakes to eat and Turkies to roast.
But philosophers say each joy has a shade,
Bach pleasure a gloom that ne'er will fade,
And it we apply this theory here
We'll surely agree with the sage and the seer.
For Fortune has chosen this era of thought,
A's a stage to display the gem that was sought,
In that chaos of misery bloodshed and woe
That marked the pgth of an intruding foe.
for truely the cloud of frenzied fear
_That-bung-like a cloud o'er the hopes of the year,
--- is passing along like the storm as it flies
'Tis a flitting speck on the breast of the skies,
Our Country cormcrly so calm and serene,
With its team g hill-sidesand meadows so green,
Resounds with the clamor and din of a strife
That threatens he .Nation's honor and life.
A voice from the \South proclai med the alarm
That "Uncle Sam" was threatened with harm s .
.His forts, jorsenals\gtnd Navy-Yards too,
/Belong to a Nation so clean bright and new.
_Before he had time to \ arm and proceed,
The Telegraph shriekethey'll surely secede;'
— While down 'went the dirty old National rag - ,
And up went the sheeny Palmetto flag,
Next Sumter's faint cry was heard in the gale,
As it stirred every heart by its piteous wail,
Beleaguered, hail-starved, they battle their woes,
Surrounded by th "usamls of murderous
At last the storm 'bursts with a thundering peal,
That nerves each heart like an armor of steel,
Bverrseul is on fire, and eager to tell -
Its doubting neighbor that "Sumter has fell.'
The plow and the hoe were now thrown aside,
And the yeoman first felt his National pride,
As a rallying shout froth valley and plain
Went thundering by like the waves of the main
Then their chivalric sons repaired to the field,
,And :,wore great oaths they never would yield,
Whi'e the Rattlesnake flag continued to wave
O'er the land of the dupe and the home of :he slave!
'Then Davis, their chieftain, pragmatic and vain,
Came on like the gust that precedes the rain,
Intending to capture our government soat,
Where he could reign so happy and' mat.
Bitt a calm always comes after the whistling storm,
And sits like an Angel of love and reform;
Where a tempeitt of wrath, ambition and blood,
sweeps by like the surging waves ofthe flood.
For placid and calm, as a babe in repose,
This Demondike author of all our woes,
inks away as though discretion had blest
His irrascible mina with undisturbed rest.
But away to Virginia be flew in despair, "7
And gathered-a rabble of sycophants there;
White his banner of Treason was boldly unfurled,
The acorn and contempt of the civilized world.
But McClellan rose up like a ghost from the grave,
Our honor, integrity, and altars to save;
And came down from the West like.a whirlwind
of woe, ,
Striking death in the ranks of the traitorous foe.
Then on to Missouri they sped with delight,
hoping there to regain what they'd lost in the fight,
But a Lyonwaa there to give,them their due,
Who fell aehis post so brave and so true. •
'
And now thetaretrying to pollute and despoil'

But her voice, like a trumpet, has scorned with die•

intended, together withthe same idea.held
by many at that time,and' not yet given up,
viz:establishing a monarchical govertithent;
and she determined to imitate the exam-
pie set by many of her friends in persua
ding their lovers and other male friends, to
join the Confederate army thit they might
wreathe their fair brows with fresh laurels
Of conquest and victoryoin the courts of
"oyalty or the halls -of nobility. - Hence
" he scene at the opening of this story.
Chagrined at her failure, the traitoress
hastily despatched a note to the &Congress'
then in session', the result of which Will
soon be apparent. When Walter lefuthe
drawing room, he went to the stable, and.
as was his custom when irritated. mounted
his favorite' horse, a gallant little bay, and
galloped over to the neighbOring planta
tion on which Charles Grantner, his bo
som friend, live-d. Slaving remained over
to dinner, he was riding slowly homeward,
when lie was met by James, the negro
valet-de-chambre, in, great agitation, and
quite out of breath., Coming up to hina,he
was surprised-to see tears ir. hia eyes and
marks of distress on his countenance; dis
mounting, he sat down on a.small flat rock
near by; and bade-James take a seat beside
him. . The latter obeyed, ,and essayed to
relate the cause-of his disturbance in the
following manner:
marster Walter! You never earn
aieh doing in your life—nobody ever did./
have been huntinr and huntin you 'ever
;0 Long. Jefr. Davis done.gone andlisen't

Oil ford! Mars' Walter, do save us
Ara ais how you could." •Here, he began
to wring his hands.
With a hurried "follow me!" Le Clar'e
leaped in his saddle„and was out o( sight;
putt' ng spurs to horse he was
,soon at
home. The most dire confusion prevailed
—servants were running hither and thith
er, shrieking and uttering the most vehe
ment lamentations. Entering the parlor,
he found two officers, who
,had come di
rect trout headquarters bearing a commis
sion, and in case of his refusal, a notice for
the confiscation of his -own and - father's
estate without reserve.
. "Rather beggary and honor"—he was
abot.t to say, when the dour openeu, and
Mary Lanlle entered, her countenance
wrought up to an apparent expression
the most intense agony, supporting' his fa-
ther, whose trembling treble could ill brook
the evils of poverty.
Stretching his arms towards Walter:the
old man cried. e.Save'me, my eon 1"
would have fallen.at hi s . feet had he not
caught him in his arms.
“Say no more, my dearest father-1
