TIM WIVEL Somebody has written the following about the girls, and set it a do at on the sea of riewspaperdom God bless the girls, Whose golden curls Blend with our evening dretinns; They haunt our lives Like spirit wives, Or—as naiads haunt the streams. They soothe our pains, They fiti our brains With dreams of sualmer hours; God bless the girls, God bless their curls, God bless our Minion flowers. The wives, we think, are quite as deserving as the girls--therefor a the following is respectfully submitted : God bless the wives, They fill our hives With little bees and honey; They ease life's !hocks, They wend our socks, But—don't they spend the money ! When we are sick; They heal us quick— Thit! ia, if they love us; If not, we die, _ And yet they cry And place tombstones above tie. Of roguish girls, . With sunny curls, Ve may in fancy dream ; But wives—true wives— . Throughout our lives, • Are everything they seem. I BIRTH 1;1 7 TRIBUTE. BY C. W. HOLMES We iwill not speak of years to-night; For what have years to bring, But larger floods of love and light And sweeter songs to sing ? We will not drown in wordy praise The kindly thoughts that rise; If friendship owns one tender phrase, He reads it in odr eyes. We need not waste our schoolboy art To gild tt is notch of time; Forgive.me, it my wayward heart Has throbbed in artless rhyme. Enough for him the silent grasp That limns us hand in hand, And he the bracelet's radiant clasp That lochs our circling hand. Strength to his hours of manly toil ! " Peace to hisstsrin dreams! Who loves alike the furrowed soil, Tin music haunted streams! Easteet.smiles to keep forever bright The sunshine on his lips, And faith, that sees the ring of light Round .Nature's last eclipse ! The Age of our Earth. Among the astoundlug discoveries of mod ern licieiwe, is that sf•the immense periods that have passed in the gradual formation of the-earth—Bo-vast-was—the—cycles — of — the time proceeding even the appearance of man on the surface of our globe, that our period seems as yesterday when compared with the epochs that have gone before it. Had we only the evidence of the deposits of rocks heaped above each other in regular strata by the slow accumulation of materials, they a lone would convince us of the long and slow maturing of God's work on earth; but when we add to_these the successive populations of whose life this world has been the theatre and whose remains arc hidden in the rocks into which the mud or sand, or soil, or what ever kind on which they lived, has harden ed in the course of time— or the enormous chains of moutitalu'llose upheaval divided' these periods of a,adimiulationd by great con vulsions—co. the different nature in the qui et configurations of our globe, as the sinktug of lands beneath the ocean, or the gradual rising of continents and islands above ;• or the slow groth of .the coral reefs, those won: derful seawalks, raised by the little 'ocean architects, whose own b '•: ' •• • • . • • the building stones and cement that binds them together. and who have worked so bu sily during the long centuries, that there extensive countries, mouutain chains, islands and long lines of coasts, consisting solely of their remains—or the countless forests that have grown up, flourished and decayed, to fill the storehouses of coal, that teed the fires of the human race—it we .consider all these records of the past, the intellect fails to grasp a chronology of which our exper ience furnishes no data, and time that lies behind us seems as much an eternity to our conception, as the future that stretches in definitely before us.

The most eloquent voice yet imbed against a dishoneraele peace , and the machinations of traitors at hoine, is that of the Forty teurth Regiinent Neiv Yekic VOluntectin in the address printed below, which was adopt ed with 'startling unanimity,every officer and soldier present in the regiment subscri bing his name to it with enthusiaotio earn estness.

THE ELLSWORTH REGIMENT TO ITS FRIENDS. appeal to the People of the State of New York. • • We can no longer keep silent. A sacred devotion to our country, an ardent lov for our homes, and above all, an abiding fa i - h in God, bids us speak. For nearly two ears we have suffered nil things, perilled all things, endured all things, for the sake of our common country. We have left our ustness, our in , re , , our nen' s, '0 're side of our youth, the sacred places of prayer and all the nearest and dearest relations' of life to serve our country. We have endured hunger, thirst, cold and heat. By day and by night we have borne the weight of our knapsacks and the weariness of the march. We have worked late and, early in the trenches; we have bivouehed in the swamps we have suffered sickness in the hospitals; we have not been spared from "the pestilence that walketh in darkness," nor from "the destruction that .wasteth at noonday." We have never shiunk from duty, but rather have again and again cheerfully sought death even at the cannon's mouth, to save our U nion from destruction; our homes from dis grace, and you and your children from eter nal shame. ' When we came to the field we came with' your blessing. You told us to go—that Goa would be with us, and that your most fet vent prayers should follow us.—Encouraged by your words of patriotism, of hope, of faith we came to the • war.—After suffering alas much in behalf of you and your children - he nation's honor, dear alike to us all, will you withhold from us 123 W your sympa thy and support? Will you join with those, worse than traitors, at the North, who cry "Peace" when they know there is no peace, nor can be none till this unholy rebellion is crushed? Wilt you ally yourselves with those who, by words of discourageme,ut, are prolonging this war, and who are thus be coming in the sight of both Heaven and earth, the insidious murderers of your sons and brothers here in the field? Why should you, who suffer none of the dangers, none of the privations of the field or camp, be less patriotic, less faithful, less hopeful,. less con fident hr God and the holy cauo in which we are engaged, than we who endure all ?

Amotig the many methods which were tried to - induce men to enlist during the Rev olutionary War, the following furnishes a very successful one,, and gives a partial de monstration of the fighting qualities of. the captain : . During the Revolutien, Captain E— a member of one of the first families of Charles ton, haling lost, in a skirinish, nr3st of, his Inez, went into the interior of South Caroli na for the purpose of enlisting recruits.— :Having appointed a rendezvous, be spent a day or two in looking about the country.-- At the time and place appointed, he found a large number' assembled, not one of, whom would enlist. After some hours spent to no purpose, he appointed a rendezvous for the next day, and left the ground. Next day came, and with it the same crowd, bit he :ne t t with no more success than the day be fore. What could the matter be I it was the first time during the war that ti recrui ting officer had been so unsuccessful. Some thing must be wrong, and he determined to know what it was. Calling one of the rus tics aside, he then said : "Why is it I get no recruit's 7" "You don't think," said the countryman, "that we are going to 'list under such a look ing man as you are You are dtessed too ue to se mac o ater. In those days knee Creeches and silk stock ings wore fashionable, and the captain was dressed in that style; there lay his unpopu larity. Be turned to the countryman, and remarked : "$o you object to my dress, do you 7 lOonoe here to-morrow, and I shall have re cruits." Next day the same crowd had assembled, anxious to know what idea the dandy cap tain had got into his head. After the crowd had assembled, Captain E— stepped out and said, in a clear and distinct voice : "My friends, I understand that you ob ject to me because I am dressed a !ittle finer than yourselves. You think I am unable to fight on that account. I will whip us ma ' ny of you as will come, out, one at a time, with the understanding that every wan is •to enlist after he is whipped. Pick your men and send them out.' After some consultation„ a hug e, 'broad shouldered fellow came out. T he Captain iff.his-coat-very-c ark and well made, and a superior boxer The countryman rushed up, intending to brush out the captain in a few moments. He mis took his man, however, and soon measured hielength upon the grass.. A greater bully than the first stepped out to take his place, and soon took his place on the ground. The countryman stared ; they had no idea that such a man could fight; he had,..however, en listed two men, and must not be allowed to go further. he'bully of the crowd now stepped in to take the gentleman in hand.— lie was a stout fellow, weighing about 200 pounds, and bragged that he had never been whipped. lie knew nothing, however, about sparring, and he very soon followed his com panions. Never was a crowd so utterly con founded; three of' their best men whipped by a man from the city ! They could hard ly-realize it, and stood motionless. ±-W-ell r my-friends r are—you—satisfied ? I have whipped three of your best men. I suppose you have no objection now to follow their example ?" "Not a bit of it," responded the crowd. "You'll do to tie to, old fellow 1 Come boys, 'fall in !V They did so, and in a short time the cap tain had his company filled, and ho had 41- fern of more. than lie could find room for. We to elhe following frotu the resolutions unanim usly adopted by the 11th Pa. regi men , nd may be regarded as the universal sentiment of the army In view of the persistent efforts made 'to misrepresent our views and feelings at, home, while we are absent in the field, we deem it eminently fitting that we declare to our noun trymen and' to the world our sentiments and determinations.—Therefore, tor.

The Greatest Mystery. The body is to die; so much is certain.— What Cies beyond ? No one who passes the charmed boundary comes back to tell. The imagination visits the realm of shadows— sent out from some window in the seal over life's restless, waters, but, wings its way hea vily back, with an olive leaf in its beak as a token of emerging life beyond the closely bending horizon. The great sun comes and goes in the heaven, yet, breathes no secret of tie ethereal wilderness ; the crescent moon cleaves her nightly passage across the tipper deep, but tosses over board no message, and displays no signals. The sentinel stars chal lenge each other as they 'walk their nightly rounds, but we catch no syllable of their countersign which gives passage to the hea venly camp. Between this and the other ife-is a great gulf fixed, tier. I• • • . er.eye nor toot can travel. The gentle friend whose eyes we dosed in their last sleep long years ago, died with rapture in her wonder stricken eyes, a smile of ineffable joy upon i_. her lips, and hands folded over a triumphant heart, but her lips, were p k speeelOind in ,titnated nothing of the via on that enthralled her.—J. G. Boland. A CHILD'S SYMPATHY.—A child's eyes ! those clear wells of undefined thought!' What on earth can be so beautiful? Full of love, hope and curiosity, they meet your own. In prayer, how earnest! in joy, how sparkling! in sympathy, how tender ! The man who never tried the companionship of a little child has carelessly passed by one of the pleasures of life, as one passes a rare flower without plucking it or knowing its value A child cannot understand, you think! Speak to i o` the holy things of your—rel'b , i ' your grief for the loss of a friend, of your love for some one you fear will not return it; it will take, it is true., no measure of the soundings of your thought—will not judge how much you should believe, whether your grief is the true ratio in proportion to your loss, whether you are worthy of fit to attract the love which you seek—but its whole aoul will - inoline to yours, and engraft itself, as:it were, on the feeling which is your feeling for the hour.
