The wine circled around the board in a noble hall, and the sculptured walls tang with sentiment and song. The lady of each knightly heart was pledged by' name, and many a syllable significant of loveliness had been uttered, until it came to St. Leou’a turn, when, lifting the sparkling cup on high: *‘I drink to one,” he said, “Whose image never may depart, Deep graven on a grateful heart. Till memory is dead ” “To one whose love for me shall last When lighter passions long have passed. Bo hoiy "tis and true; To one ivhoso love hath longer dwelt, More deeply fixed, more keenly felt, Than any pledged by you.” Each guest upstarted at the word. And laid a hand upon his sword. With fiery flashing eye: And Stauley said. “We crave the name. Proud knight , of this most peerless dame Whose love you count so high.” St. Leon paused, as if he would Not breathe her name in careless mood Thus lightly to another ; Then bent his noblo head as though To give that word the reverence due, And gently said, “My Mother !” (daunted, their aspirations look a bold- ( “l will lend you one with pleasure,” I er flight.

The prison was thus rendered almost as bright by’ night as by day.— Instead of a single rapid shot in ibe dark, amid the melee of an onset the senlinel was given ample facilities for several deliberate rounds. A few ex periments demonstrated thaL the haz ards of scaling too were increased to a degree that demanded an abandon ment of that system. The same ca pacity to estimate chances, led to the adoption of a less dangerous, because more war-like method. Organized squads, usually from four lo six, armed themselves with brick bats, and advanced by night lo the as sault. Deploying behind the angles of the banacks, they opened fire on the sentinels at short range, and under cov er ol this piimitive, yet really formida ble artillery, axe-men advanced lo the fence and made a breach. Sometimes a man was detailed to throw a blank et over the nearest lamp. On several occasions, the sentinels pros! rated themselves behind the par apet, to evade this demoralizing can nonade, and lay there shouting for the I guard luslily, but declining to expose ! themselves sufficiently to load and fire, j Against tFie many successful attacks | of this nature, there stands only a sin gle failure : i A large party—twenty-five or there about—was organized for a grand as- inen were picked ; yet eyes on, and they cent, nuther.” lidn’t cost me a From the Galesburg (Pa.)

How often has it been said and writ ten, that “Truth is siranger than fic tion and every day further verifies and corroborates the axiom. The ele ments ot actual romance pervades ev erything around us, and event and ac cident sometimes give biith to occur rences and incidents that seem truly astounding. Every day men become richer and men become poorer. With one flash of the telegraph, hundreds are ruined, and, consequently, others become enriched. But, it is not our purpose, at present, lo deal with gen eralities and,speculations,but to narrate as accurately as possible, an event that has startled our German citizens from their usual propriety, and caused them for a time, lo forget their local church feud. On Thursday afternoon, last, Col. Carr, the postmaster, received a heavy sealed document at his office, post* marked “Vienna,” and directed to “Herr Carl Von Yechter, Galesburg, Knox county, State of Illinois, United Stales of North America.” Knowing that the massive letter must be of im portance from its crested seals and ^ 4 general official appearance, he dis- feet and then turned them towards thelo^ ^ °Ji patched Mr. William Post, chief clerk i ii t - -ii I kees, ambushed under an adjacent , r , ,r- _ u „r, u w It would he impossible to con- ■ -■ i- . • . ,, J D 111 lh e office, in search of ihe Herr Von v. building, poured in a close volley.

Reader, this is an actual occurrence, and one that truly demonstrates th^t truth is stranger than fiction,’' in deed. _ From tiall's Join a-it of Fhalth. Uuration of Life. The a verage duration of file of man, in civilized society, is about thirty-three and a third years. This is called a generation—making three in a century. But there are certain localities and communities of people where this av erage is considerably extended. The mountaineer lives longer than the low- lander ; the farmer than the artisan : the traveller than the sedentary ; tin- temperate than the self-indulgent ; the just than the dishonest. “The wicked shall not live out half hts days,” is th»> announcement of Divinity. The phi losophy of this is found in the fact that the moral power has a siiong power over the physical, a power much more controlmg than is generally imagined. The true man conducts himself iu the light ot Bible precepts, is “temper ate in all things is “slow to anger and on his grave is written : “went about doing good.” In these three things are the great elements of hu man health; the restraints of the ap petites ; the control of the passions ; and that highest type of physical exei eise, “going about doing good,” It i, said of the eminent Quaker philanthro pist, Joseph J. Gurney, that the labor and pains lie took to go and see per sonally the objects of Lis contemplated charities, so that none of them should he unworthily bestowed, was of itself almost the labor of one man. and lie m- tended to his immense hanking busi- nose noctrie*'* • L-, fV,« l. ~ .1!

September 7, 18«U 36 2iu ly, the guards could sweep the fiat san dy surface, ala glance, everywhere,; from fence to fence. Tunneling was at an end. A new fence was run, also, across the Camp, from North to South, isolat ing the prisoners from the Federal gar rison. Special patrols were permanent ly deiailed lo perforin the duties within our enclosute, ar.d no other Yankees were allowed to pass the gale. The patrols loved money, and w'ere bribed [ man, bn! as he put himself to work in from first to last, to render any assist-I good earnest to get his house to rights, their power; but they never | the neighbors lent him a hand. After he had got everything to his notion, a yond- -his utmost efforts could not car ry him further. Muhum in parvo—Aluch in little—a great deal said in a few words. Ipse dixit—He himself said it—rests on his mere assertion. Ipso facto—By the very fact. In Statu quo—In the stale in which it was. In Situ—In position—in its natural position.

A Yankee Trick.—One of our pe culiar slab-sided, gaunt Yankees lately emigrated and settled down in the West. He was the picture of a mean power; ..... .... v ( stood as sentinels on the fence, and were powerless to serve in our escape. Bribery lor escape was rendered im possible. After these herculean labors, the Yankee intellect reposed wearily. Con federate resources, however, continued active. Check-mated at two vital points, the ragged sons of war survey ed the field anew. The passage under the fence wa9 barred; but nothing thought struck liiui that he had no chickens,and he was powerfully fond of sucking raw eggs. He was too hon est to steal them, and too mean to buy them. At last the thought struck him —he could borrow. He went to a neighbor and thus accosted hitn : “Wall, I reckon you hain’igot no old hen nor nothin’you’d lend me fora lew weeks, have you, neighbor f” Major. In the mouth of September of that year, he was insulted at a levee by the Colonel of his regiment. Proud and high-spirited, he resented the in sult, and a challenge was passed be tween the two officers. They met— pistols at teu paces—and the Colopel fell. With great difficulty Yechter eluded the authorities, and at length escaped to England. There he re mained but a short lime, and finding no suitable employment, he embarked for the United States, and upon his ar rival, proceeded to Chicago, He ar rived there the day the intelligence of the fall of Fort Sumtet flashed through the country, and his means being near ly exhausted, he enlisted m the 9lh Il linois, then being organized. The man who had worn the epaulets of an Aus trian officer, for more than three years, carried a musket in the ranks of that battalion, and was severely wounded at the battle of Pittsburg Landing.— When he was mustered out, lie obtain ed employment ofvarious kinds,and en dured many vicissitudes incident lothe lot of a laboring man. He feared lo write to his relatives, as the Austrian government might learn of his wherea bouts and cause his apprehension un der the extradition treaty, and so he suffered and toiled in silence, until fi nally he found himself in Galesburg carrying a hod on the new hotel. The packet he received yesterday, contained a full pardon under the sign manual of the Emperor. The Colonel had only been severely wounded, and freely acknowledged that he alone had been in fault, and that the duel had But the sqd man for every hundred \ears. m men tit an av- ® “ 40. 20 y’rs should live 100 facl is, that only one thousand reaches one ^ttll it is encouraging lo know that the science of life, as re- \ ealed by the investigations of ihe phy siologist and the teachings ot educated medical men, is steadily extending the period of human existence. The distinguished historian, Macau lay, stales that in 186-5, one person in twenty died each year; in I860, of forty persons, only one died. Du- pin says, that from 1776 to IS-U, ih«* duration of file in France increased fifty-two days annually, for in 17-31 the mortality was one in twenty nine 1S42, on in forty. The rich France live forty-two years on erage, the poor only thirty. Those who are “well to do”“in the world, live about eleven years longer than those who have to work from dav to day for a living. Remunerative labor and dil f usion of the knowledge of the laws ot life among the masses with temper ance and thrift, are the great means of adding to human health and life ; but the more important ingredient, happi ness, is only lo he found in daily lov ing, obeying and serving Him “who giveth us all things richly to enjoy.” Raw beef, it j<j asserted, proves of rfre greatest LeneBt as a diet for persona «i Irail . constitutions, it is reported that physicians are now administe.ing to con sumptives a diet of finely chopped raw beef, properly seasoned with salt, ami aeated by placing the dish containing it in boiling water. Ibis food is given also in cases where the stomach rejects almost every other form oi food. It assimilates rapidly aud affords the best nourishment, while patients learn to long for it and like it as much as Dr. Kane did his Arctic din ners of raw seal and walrus.
