Till in honor I can come;!
Tell the traitors all around you,
That their cruel words we know,
In ev'ry bail° kill onr soldiers
By the help they give the foe.
Hark!.! hear the bugles sounding,
'Tie the signal for the fight;
Now may God protect us, mother, •
As ho ever does the right; . •

How it swell's upon the air:
Oh, yes we'll rally round our itandard, •
Or we'll perish nobly there. Cuomo

BEAUTIFUL, TItIOUGIIT -;.-A..letter by B. F.
Taylor to the Chicago Journ a l, from Wash
ington, closes with this beautiful thought :
Leaving the gate of the Cayital to-night
I met an old man hastening tinthnßaltimore
cars. Ile carried a sword tenderly upon his
arm as if it had been an infant.. And, yet he
was no soldier, and the weapon was a. new
toy. He .was fresh from the . June fields.of
the West. The scabboard was battered and
the hilt was stained. lie had given a son
to God-and-liberth-and-was going. home with
the sword It was not the first time had
seen old swords borne home northward by
hands unused to wield them, but it was the
first time its full meaning had come .to me.
It was sadder than a dirge, it was grander
than a - pean. - '•Old' man !" I thought, "it is
worth the price you paid—the price he paid
And, as. if he had shaped it ont , in words, I
seemed to lioar.him.say : • "Priceless ! The
sword wielders perish, but the truth abideth
forever !".

KERS ?
A scurrilous newspaper in this State felid.
itates itself upon 'having added the epithet
cf "widow.makers" to the general stock of
opprobrious name which the Northern sym
pathizers with the cause of treason and re
bellion apply to the President of the United
States
Let us see what pertinence there is in the
epithet. How is Mr. Lincoln a widow-mak
er? Is it he has resisted the armed and ag•
gressivo treason of the Southern States? Is
it because he has refused to withdraw from
the National Capital and surrender it to the
hordes led by Jefferson Davis ? Is it because
he has sought in accordance with.the solemn
oath taken at his inauguration to maintain
and defend the. Republic ? •
Neither he nor his friends began this war.
No man ever sought with More solicitude to
accomplish an object, than did Mr. Lincoln
to avert the war. His inaugural address was
a most eloquent and touching appeal for
peace. Who does not remember the solemn
and pathetic earnestness of its closing passa
ges ? "In your hands," said he to those who
were threatening to destroy the 'Union, af
ter he had pointed out the madnostiand evils
of a coved so utterly unjustifiable, "in your
hands is the 'momentous issue of civil war.
The Government will not' assail you. You
can have no conflict without being yourselv
es the aggressors. You have no oath regis
tered' in heaven to destroy the Government,
while I shall have the most solemn one 'to
preserve, protect and defend it."
Faithful to that pledge, ho and his true
supporters sought, by every honorablerneans
to conciliate the disaffected Southand to
avert the terrible calamity of 'a-Civil war
It was in"vain. The South 'revolted. The
national.amhority was defied, its flag firecton
and its Capital threatened. All this occur
red bcf'ort a hostile measure was adopted, or
a soldier called for brth'e Administration.—
A protracted and•bleody war hnS,followecl,—,

usy is a two-headed , asvbitina 1 backwards ,

'more unreasonablefury: To the jealous eye'
white looks black, yellow looks green; ,and;
the very sunshine turns deadly krid, There
is •no innocence, no justice, no generosity,
that is • not touched With suspicion; save,
just the jealous person's own..
And jealousy fs an utter folly for ithelps
nothing and saves nothing.„ If your friend's
love is going, or gone r to another, will your
making. yourself hateful.and vindictive stny
aor bring it back? If.it isnot leaving you
is there no risk in rendering yourself so un- .
lovely ? •
Commend me to all bereaved bears rather
than to a:jealous person, , especiallyu jealous
woman. There is neither reason nor mercy
in her when once• thoroughly struck through
-with-this-fmkPful-passion. •
She renders herself altogether , repulsive
by it ; an object more •of dread than Aw l
Lion b those who have loved her best.' And
if she regain not her self:command, and re
turn not to her senses, she frequently des
troys utterly the attachmthits she most has
prized.-
• Her Mend may indeed refuse :6 forsake
her , but it will be duty that bids him stay,
and never will she bp able to forget what an
abject thing she once appeared.
But lot not any too rit,arously judge the
conduct of a jealous woman or a jealous man.
Remember' that the macaw. suffers. To be
sure the suffering is froin selfishness; often
it is without a slTadoW of a cause, but still
it is suffering and it is intense, Pity
bear with it. You Allay yourself fall into
temptation. It is a sorer curse, a more ear•
tarn and fatal blight to the heart on which
it seizes than it can be to those against whom
its spite is hurled. ~Then, while none should
bend too far to the whims of jealousy, all
should be patient with its victims ; and also
phoUld be watchful and careful that it enter
not theirown hearts.

Speaking of overdoing matters, reminds us
that there was a Methodist preacher once
traveling in the summer. There had been a
protracted drought; the earth was parched
and dry, and, vegitatio,n, withered.. At night
our Mend stopped in front of a house which
belonged to a widow lady, .and permis
sion
asked ads
sion t o stay all night. The old lady told him
bread was scarce, and that corn was still more
source, and thars:he did not know whether
she could spare enough to feed him and horse.
The traveler answered that ho was a minister
and if she Woad allow him to stay all night
ho would pray. for rain. Upote o this she con
sented; so that.night and "next,morning the
Minieter put up long and fervent pr'ayegi for
'rain, and again went'on his way rejoicing.—
The night after he left there came ktrear
dons storm. The old lady, on gettinc , up in
the morning, found her garden flooded, her
fences "sWept away, her;,plantation washed in
to, gullies, while ruin and deva station stared
her in the face. Turning 'to, , !me
,she was
standing. by, she , said:—lTlaiite take. these
Methodist, preachere;.they:alwayi,overdo the
thing! I wag afraid .or . this the night, be.
