A NEW SONG.—SHERMAN AND
HARDEE.
Air— “Oh ! Poor Robinson Cruson.”
Come Hi?ten to me, and I’ll sing of Hardee,
The "Iteb” who commanded Savannab-
Who swore that he would smash all Yankees
who should
Try to run up the Star-Spangled Banner.
Oh, Hardee, how could you do so ?
Go work yourself into a stew so,
For Genera] Sherman, if any man can,
Will flax out your army and you, so.
Hardee didn’t care, but he swore a big swear,
That every Yankee he would slew, so
All Chivalry’s sons, with their big English guns
Loaded up, ’cause he told ’em to do so.
Hardee, ’twas improper to do so;
Make yonr soldiers all get jolly blue, so, .
For the men, do you see, loaded up with
whisfcee,
And all of them traveled askew so.
But one day it is true, when the Yanks came in
* view,
Displaying the Star-Spangled Banner,
Hardee mustered his men, and he swore to them
then,
That no Yanks should e’er enter Savannah.
Oh. Hardee, why did you swear, man,
Your enemy wasn’t a cur, man,
But he came here to fight till the thing
was set right,
And the gentleman’sname it was Sherman.
Fqr fear the -What-is-jt?” might pay you a visit,
\ou obstructed the river to town so
That Torpedo or wreck might give us a check,
Blow its up, or send us all down, O.
Oh! Hardee, why did yon do so ?
. . The Yankees wouldn’t serve you so;
The Torpedo I mention is no “Yankee
Invention,”
Biit all is to Chivalry due so.
When Sherman at last, all obstructions had pass
ed,
By river and road in brave maimer, ,
I’ll send in. said he, to see if Hardee
' Is willing to give tip Savannah.
Oh ! Sherman, how could you do to,
* When, Tecuipseh, yon very w«3l knew so,
That Hardee had said, he would sooner
be dead, ‘
Than give up Savannah to you so,
I dont-care a fatftb, says Sherman, 1 am.
Asa trophy resolved to achieve it,
Infill have Savannah, to there plant my banner.
Xf Hardee doesn’t iike„ liq can leave it.
tv _ If ho runs away, how I shall whip him,
7 /‘And mv brave Pioneers they will strip him,
For wherever they catch him, my boys
think they match him, *
u And they swear they believe they cun whip
him.
Yes, Sherman was right—Hardee wouldn’t fight.
Nor of battle give one single sign, ah 1
Byt we just caught a sight of Hardee in his
p flight,
CrcHsing over to South Carolina.
How, wasn’t it, Sherman, a pity
To whip Hardee out su pretty,
j; . Had you trusted their, brag, our glori
ous flag, 11
Not yet had protected this city.
How-give, every one, as soon as I’m done,
Three ctieers for the Tri-colored' banner,
Aild three more for him, Tecumseh, so grim,
Whose geuins has conquered Savannah,
On Sherman, we’re proud that you do so,
That you’ve scattered all foes e’er you kuew
. p °i
Our blood, well you know, to the hist
drop shall flow,
Whenever demanded by you so.
SELECTED ODDS AND ENDS OP
NEWS AND INCIDE T.
Here is good news for soldiers, and for
all others who in hot weather like their
delicacies “on ice.”
The ice crop this winter is abundant.
On the behuylkill it is eight .and ten
inches thick ; Government is laying in a
supply there for the sick and wounded
fiol^iers.
It the subjoined item be true, we can
only remark that the SO,OOO must have
been disposed of, as a great many con
gressional notions are, “in general com
mittee.”
Thd sword to be presented to Vice Ad-
Jairagut by the Union League
Ouj ot Philadelphia is flow ready for
him. It cost $ 1200, but is said- to be
handsomer than the one given to Hook
er, by the Californians, that cost SO,OOO.
During the performance6f the Hugue
nots, at Ghent, lately, some improvised
troops, who were-tofire upon the Hugu
enots, were go carried away bv the ex
citement of the moment that they direct
ed a volley point blank at Raoul, only
three paces distant, and almost killed
him with the cartridge paper.
With ragard to the iollowiag, we,
being a bachelor have no hesitation in
saying, we wish we had been on the
jury.
A husband of collossal strepgth has
been beaten by his wire at 'Lyons. She
had long been the victim of his brutality,
and at last she sewed him up in the
sheets and belabored him with a stick
till she Could beat him no longer, and
then making him a curtesy she bade
him good bye. She went home to her
father* and lie sues ior a separation.
It is too bad that visitors at the White
House should be such vandals as they
prove themselves The sofas are hack
ed with knives. The carpets are cut to
pieces. .Tjfo marble is chipped away
and the mahogany sliced up into sou
venirs. The other day one entire lace
curtain was stolen from a window, the
gilded shields wrenched off; and the
cords and tassels pocketed 1
X* would seem that Gen. Andrews has
been a long time in coming to a conclu
sion reached long since by nearly ail the
sensible men in the army.
Brig. Gen Andrews thus endorses
the efforts made to benefit the colored
man by freeing him ; “I do not hesi
tate to say that what I have seen of
slavery and freedom, as regards the
colored race, since the war commenced,
has made me an aboliti mist— and this
oXiludve of considering them as a help
in the war. I am of the opinion that
their emancipation has been a blessing
to them.”

his wife apd child, leii Boston, on the

accompanied, by August Belmont The
lady's health is said to betiie cause of the
journey. Florence is the destination ol

Here's comfort for dancers*
A little tract lias been published in
Lo. don, called “Dancing a
and Scriptural Pleasure, ” from which we
Hearn ’ that dancing “ was ns> dby the
Jews of both sexes, young and old ; and
that,' though some may’ Iritter awav
other parts ot the Bible, yet to say that
we have no. clear, S< upturn,! warrant
e-r the elegant and gladsome adaptation
of motion, which we call dancing, is
inly to ignore or evade the plain word
of God.”
Our English'Cousins talk terribly. Wit
ness the following.
Here is a splendid specimen of Eng
lish bragg, intended to intimidate Gen.
Dtx lroni prosi eating his intention ot
pursuing raiders into Canada. The Era
sets the growing signs of war and savs ;
be declared with England, the
Union is family crushed. We should at
once recognize the Confederacy, break
the blockade at every desirable point,
reinforce the Confederates with the finest
lioops in the world, and sweep the in
vaders el< an out ot every Southern pro
vinces. Our “navy would, operate in a
v\ ay Wijich would astonish tile swag
gerers in New York, and though Canada
won id at first suffer heavily, she would
soon have ample vengeance I”
