Peeping Through the Blinds- In place of books, or work, yr play, Some ladies apcnd the lire-lung day In Manning every pasaer-by, And many a wonder they descry ! They find among the motley crowd That'iome are gay and some are prouJ: That some are short and some are tall. They get their information, all By peeping through the blinds You walk the streets tat common pace), You catch the outlines of a face. The face seoms strange : again you look Dear sir! she knows you like a book ! She know? the color of your hair, The very style of clothes you wear; She knows your business, I’ll be bound. And all your friends the country round. By peeping through the blinds! She knows the Smiths across tbo way, And what they dine on every day ; An.l thinks that Matilda Jane Is growing very proud and vain. She knows the Drowns at Number Four, Just opposite her very door, Folks quite as poor as they can be, For don’t they sit and sew. while she Is peeping through the blinds ! Dear ladies ! if you don’t succeed In gaining knowledge (bat you need, Then at your window take your seat, And gaze into the busy street ; Full soon you’ll read your neighbor* well, And can their tastes and habits tell, And know their business to a TANARUS, Much better than your own you see, By peeping through the blinds ! SONG OF SUMMER- Leaf by leal in Summer creeping, Flower by flower her glory reaping— Harvest of the rolling spheres ; Cloud by cloud flic sky is freighted, And to every bud belated They have stoop’d in dewy tears. Day by day the flocks aro keeping Wateh upon tin* silent hills, And the noon breeze there ia sleeping To the cradle song of rills; Be.iin by beam the sun is stealing into the hearts of all the flowers, And those crimson hearts revealing Something that’s akin in our-. Bird and bee have spread the tiding* Meadow yard in golden swarms, And the season’s first rude chidtngs Want oil now in wealth of charms ; All things worship, o’en the flower Folds at eve its crimson palms. Mouth by month the moon's intrusion, Asa spectre in tho dark, Mo'ei in pbantoui-like illusion All tho vernal bloom to mark ; And tb azilre arch of hours Mens res out the Hummer's dowers. Night by night tho sou of darkuej *, Diiititu shoreward to the hud, Marks ito earth with silent beauty I,re the dusky round is run ; And ihe eye b» holds, in waking, e-' p* ' lotions just begun. I in?' by pulse our life is fleeting Wlirr- a? clouded mornings beam l) wn th. \ ale ol yours retreating, L<ku u white mist o'er n stream ; Boon u grave mist will bo veiling All things in a long death dream ! THE MAIDEN TO THE MOON Oli, Moon ! did you »ee My lover and mo In the valley beneath the sycamore tree? Whatever befell, 0, Moon, don’t tell— "l'was nothing amiss, you know very well. 0, Moon ! you know, A long tilin' ugo, Y’ou It’ll the sk.v and descended below Os a summer’s night, By your own *w et light, To incut your Kndyuiiunon Liitinas height ! And there, 0 Moon ! You gave him a boon, ¥,>” wouldn't, I’m sure, have gvanttd at noon; ’ I vvus nothing ami s, Being only tho bliss Os giving- and taking an innocent kiss. Some churlish olf Who was spying about, Went oft and babbled and so it got out ; But for all tho gold The sea could hold, O, Moon 1 wouldn’t have gone and told. So Moon—don’t tell Os what ho foil My lover and me in flic leafy doll ; He is honest and true, And, remember, too, We only bohaved like your lover and you. A SUMMER LONGING. 1 must away to wooded hills ami vales, Whore broad, slow streams flow cool nnd silently, And idle bargos flap their li'tlc&s sails : For uie the Summer sunset glows and paloa, And green fields wait for me. I loug for shadowy forests, where the birds Twitter and chirp at noon from every tree; I long for blossomed leaves and lowing herds : And Nature's voices say, in mystic words. “The green fields wait for thee.” 1 dream of uplands, where the. primrose shines, And waves her yellow lamps above the lea ; Os tangled copses, swung with trailing vinos; Os open vistas, skirted with tall piucs, Where green fields wait for me. 1 think of Jong, sweet afternoons, when 1 May lie and listen to the distant sea. <»r hear the breezes in the reeds that sigh. Or insect .voices chirping shrill and dry, In fields that wait lor mo. These dreams of Summer come to bid me find I ho forest’s shade, the wild bird’s mehuU , While Summer’s rosy wreaths Jor me are twined; While Summer's fragrance lingers on the wind, And g:.en fields wait lor me. A Ramble in August. Come, If li> le ivo the city’s din. 'I he dry and dusty town. And wanderforth lo pastures Iresli, And uicadi tvs newly mown.

Among Us knarled roots ; The blackberry clambers o'er the rock. And proffers us its fruits. The hlackhcrn clambers o'er the rock, And many a flowery wreath Hangs u'er the alders by the brook That darkly glides beneath. The hardback springs beside the road, The fern beside the stream, Where cool, beneath the rustic bridge. The limpid waters gleam. W e'U wander round the ruined mill, Ear down the ,|uiet vale, Where many a farm and shcep-cot lone Lie scattered o’er the dale. Till twilight gray the rural scene In tranquil beauty blends, And slowly o’er the eastern hill The August moon ascends. —A man named J. W.

I am for peace. I feel no inclination to impugn the motives of men, or to arraign their past records; nor shall any one put me down as the advocate of any peculiar dynasty, or of any party. The fate of the people of Georgia is my fate ; and looking upon the stern realities that surround us, I have tried to decide what is best for my countrymen and for our posterity. No doubt can be entertained by the dispassionate mind hut that it is our duty to accept the facts of the situa tion—weigh them with prudent judg ment as they are, and not as we may desire to have them, and, in coopera tion with every power and influence at work for our rehabilitation, to make the best government we can with the materials at our command. 1 am well aware that in coming to this wise conclusion, there are many prejudices in our own bosom which wo have to conquer. We have been told that the people of the North arc so much our enemies, by both tradition and practice, that we cannot live in (hr same government with them. This cruel work of sowing dragon’s teeth was carried on through years of crusade, until wo were called upon in the mime of constitutional liberty, to abrogate the constitution of our fathers and make anew one ; and in the name of State rights and State sovereignty, to inaugu rate a dynasty which soon immolated liberty, and which, in the name of the dethroned goddess, and supported with paradoxical devotion, by a virtuous people, dragging men in conscript chains, to defottd its unlawful seizures, its forced loans, and other measures of tyranny. The true slate mont of the matter is that the people ol the North have committed errors in the past; so have we. Since, then, none of us aro totally without fault, why shall we not admit it—profit by experience, and address ourselves to the present and to the latum- . Hut the enemies ol reconstruction won hi still have ns believe the heresy above referred to, and in their anxiety to present the sum of alleged grievances, they have failed to notice, or neglected to advert to some important facts which deserve consideration. To some ol these I will briefly call attention. When the war closed there was a sufficient debt due by people ol the South to people ol the North to have brought the whole mass ol Southern society to penniless bankruptcy. This, too, wa., well known ti) Northern mer chants who mainly held the huge debt. They did not press. They did nut even avail themselves of legal mlvant ages, whilstthousanJsof Southern credi tors, many of them, too, bitter anti reconstructioiiisls, who say they love their Southern brethren too well to he willing for them to live under tho same vine and tig tree with the Yankees, rushed into tho courts to secure first liens, and plied their debtors with merciless legal process whenever and wherever they could. 1 have been, and am now, extensively engaged in the practice of law. 1 know what 1 say is truth, and weigh my words deliberately, when 1 declare that the men of the North have been at least as much like brethren in their settlements sis South erners have. 1 challenge the business men and the merchants and tho lawyers of Georgia to deny it. And I would, with the most tender delicacy, suggest to the women of my country, many of whom have refused either to be com forted or to reflect, that these men have had it in their power to deprive them of even their homes, and have known it, and from motives of fraternity and of admiration for a gallant, courageous and suffering people, have exercised forbearance. The many thousand of magnanimous settlements made by Northern men constitute a great social fact which is for them a monument, and is Ibr n.s an unanswerable argument against the further continuance of strife. There is another equally as potent. Our people were impoverished at Ihe close of the war, and the horrors of their situation were increased by the impropitiousness of the seasons oflWij and I Stiti. Famine thus found its way to many a door whore plenty had previously kept her abode. It even put in its long arms and pinched Ihe inmates of all our homes, so that, instead of tho t'eniuropia, there was the groan ol misery throughout our much loved South. There is not a community in the North which did not contribute something to relieve our distress. They sent the means ol subsistence to ns along tbe ready Vail way routes and by the river steamers. They sent corn, ami Hour, and bacon, and lard, and clothing, and all that sustains life ; and when they were uncertain what would do us most good, they sent checks on their banks through the mails, so promptly reestablished for our accommodation by the Government, No avenue of communication was spared ; no organization, social or benevolent, but what lent its aid. The government itself entered upon the j good work, and its officers have been planning the relief of our poor, and distributing rations to the hungry. Even the mighty ocean bore their bouulihil offerings, and its willing waves murmured tire praises of the generosity they were contributing to assist; whilst, ia many instances, citizens far in the interior were surprised with consign ments of lood for distribution from men whose names they nevey belbre had heard. Does this look like enmity? Does it look like plotting our destruc tion V My countrymen, do not let' politicians or your own passions deceive you. Such works as these are fruits of peace. Those who tiius signalize our misfortunes are not enemies. Wc should ( know more of each other, both North and South, and we should judge of each other with fairness and mutual respect. This was what Washington meant when he recommended a national spirit. Have the hearts of our people become so small that we cannot love our whole country? la not a pood deoil good, though done by a descendant of Green, who Georgia delighted to honor in his day, notwithstanding he wil a New Englander .' Is the land of Webster, and Douglas, and Jay, different from the land of Clay, and Berrien, and Marshall? Is the country of Washing ton, and Crawlord, and John Adams, and Jackson to be forever divided, aud must political gamblers unceasingly east lots tor its garments.aud ipecYiate on its Constitution ? Jt is worthy of notice that the men who have plied us most actively with arguments, appeals, and diatribes against reconstruction, have uniformly and in e«sery instance failed to refer in terms of consideration to any of these sublime acts of kindness aud fraternity. Take the whole range of our history from the magnificent colloqay between Gens. Grant and Lee, at the surtender ol the latter and his noble anjr—in which General Cranthad the senfbility to soothe the mortification of albrave man whom he respected in Iris Misfor tune—to the present moment! when United States troops are protectijig the law abiding men of Tennessee %aiust the worst violence with which tie ex tremists on both sides, unrestrained, would deluge the country, and it jwi 11 be seen that these opponents of (recon struction have ignored the bcnivolcnt attentions of government to the jeueral welfare. They even ignore the (act which presents itsclfto every dayobser vation, that hitter as is the idea of liv ing under military rule upon which they carp considerably, at all evjnts, in the administration of General Ape in this district, instead of tyranny there is a mild firmness mingled intjeh with forbearance. The greatest freedom of speech is allowed, and he even shows so much of indulgence as to leave the reins of our local governments in the hands of those inimical to reconstruction. T hero has already been tot much pinchbeck martyrdom for the loft cause palmed off upon us. The real heroes of the recent struggle are the men who suffered in the battles and tedious marches, and weary bivouacs, and who have returned home wounded or shat tered by disease. The greatest suf ferers arc the widows and orphans of the bumble dead. These should he cherished by us ns we love the memory of the worthy; hut those who are en deavoring to lead public opinion agaiust peace, and who, in the name of the Constitution, would ravish liberty of her charms and sacrilegiously invoke an archy, cannot complain if they find themselves scrutinized. Their extraor dinary omissions, to which attention has been called above, demon-irate that they are either selfish or the vic tims of blind and passionate prejudice. Time will develop which. If seeking to serve themselves, 1 predict that they will either leave us and go somewhere else, where the paltry capital of notoriety they may he omtbled to centre upon themselves may he coined intcTgold or social consideration; or they will he foremost in the advocacy of reconstruc tion when it shall have become an accomplished fact ; hut I take them to he sincere, and in that event their fail ure to advert to any of the facts of the kind referred to by me, is irresistibly | conclusive that they are the victims of their own ill governed feelings and I jaundiced -sentiments, and are to he pitied instead of followed. We need no sophisms now. Neither do wc need j sophumorcisms ' Wo need plain, solid food, and it is important for us not only that we look all the tacts of our situation in the face, hut also that wc let the peopjo of j the North know that these reckless intellects are their own exponents, and ; noL the exponents ol the true existing ! sentiment, here; for it is not the least of our inislbrluncs that the extremists in all parts ol our country are yet converging—as in the past, though actuated by rank hostility to each other— : to issues that continuously threaten the ! peace oI society. The extremist editors here will not publish arguments of the kind given above in favor of recon struction, hut every dirty diatribe against the Union, and the complete rehabilitation of the couutry, which Washington and his compatriots estab lished, they print, and praise, and imitate. And they rejoice and led complimented by notices which jour nals, alike inimical to reconstruction, j edited by extremists North, make of their congenial labors. If 1 could get the ear of the whole editorial fraternity I would respectfully remind them of the dignity of their calling, and of their immense power. In behalf of the women aud children who have some interests in this question, I would exhort them to wield that power for good and in behalf of law aud order. 1 would remind them that ever since the days of Junius—who was ashamed to pul his name to what he wrote—weak men like him have had the folly to think hullyism, and vulgarity, and insult, synonymous with wit, sar casm and logic; whilst true journalists have not withheld lacts, but have stood bv tlie law, advocated principle and combatted passion, carrying tire tastes of the gentleman even into party glodia tiou. I would further remind them that there is no party now hut Our coun try, and earnestly urge upon them the advocacy of reconstruction, so that the expression of opinion would be worth something. Now it is mere brutmu fulmeu —then it would mould destiny at the ballot box. ibis much I have said, because, as we all well know, when our hearts get right, the work ot reconstruction is almost entirely When ever we decide that having laid down our arms and agreed to have peace, wc will, in that spirit of frankness and sincerity which distinguishes the Southern people, inquire how eau our relations with the Federal Government be fully resumed? The reply is plain and palpable. The plan of recon struction contained in tho Sherman Hill, anti acts of Congress supplemen tary thereto, is the only way. If it fails, wc can oflly get one involving severer terms. Bj the Constitution of the United States the Government is i confided to three separate bodies of magistracy. The President has said he will execute it; the Congress passed it and will enforce it: the Supreme Court has been appealed to and refused even temporary injunction. Thus the Government is a unit ; and let <jiii(l nurics say what they will, these sworn custodiaus of the Constitution say it shall be enforced, and reconstruction will take place. Therefore, to stay out is not to prevent the work, but to leave others to do it, to register and then vote against Convention is madness. For even if you succeed in defeating Con vention, you incur the probability of further disfranchisement, for, according to the term of their election, the present Congress will dispose of these matters before another can be elected. The truth is, the only sensible course left us is to deal fairly with ourselves, and with posterity, and to advocate reconstruction, vote for the best men we can get as delegates—let them meet ami make its a Constitution which the Government will guarantee, and then live under it.

The Commanding General has become satisfied that the civil officers in thi3 Military District arc only ob serving his order prohibiting them from “using any influence to deter or dis suade the people from reconstructing their State Government under the recent acts of Congress/' so far as their own personal conversation is concerned, and arc, at the same time, by their official patronage, supporting and encouraging newspapers which are, almost without exception, opposing i reconstruction, and obstructing and embarrassing civil officers,appointcd by the Military District,in tho performance of their duties by denunciation and threats of future penalties for their official acts. If. Such use of the’patronage of their offices is simply an evasion f per. haps unintentional} of the provisions of the General Order above referred to, and is, Ti fact, an employment of the machinery of the provisional State ; Governments to defeat the execution of 1 the reconstruction acts. 111. It is therefore ordered, That all ’ advertisements or other official puhli cations heretofore, or -to be hereafter, provided for by State or municipal laws or ordinances, he given by the proper civil officers, whose duty it is to have such publication to bo made, in such newspapers and such only as have not opposed and do not oppose reconstruction under the acts of Con gress, nor attempt to obstruct, in any manner, the civil officers appointed by the military authorities in this district in the discharge of their duty by threats of violence or prosecution, or other penalty, as soon as the military protection is withdrawn, for acts per formed in their official capacity. IV. All officers in this military dis- 1 trict, and all officers of the Frcedmon’s Bureau, and all Boards of Registra tion, or other persons in the employ ment of the United States under its military jurisdiction, are directed to give prompt attention to the enforce ment of this order, and to make imme diate report to these headquarters of any civil officer who violates ih pro- > visions.

PIHNCF, Cashier. an HI fy IMPOKTANT TO mmm FARMERS, AND PLANTERS, AIT E have been informed that tlie usual practice of Merchants. Farmers aud riaut - W ere, in ordering their supplies of our Dr. McLane’s Celebrsfted Vermifuge, liao been to simply write on for Vermifuge. The consequence is that instead ol the genninc DR. McLANE’S VERMIFUGE,"they frequently <_ret one or the other of the many wortlilessprc pa rations called Vermifuge now before the public. We, therefore, beg leave to urge upontbc Planter the propriety and importance of invariably writing the name in full, and to udvisetheir factors or agents that they will not receive any other than the genuine DR. McLANE’S CELEBRATED VERMIFUGE, prepared bv FLEMING BROTHERS, PITTSBURG, PA. Wc also would advise the same precautions in ordering DR. McLANE’S Celebrated LIVER PILLS. The great popularity of these Pills, as a specific or euro for LI VER COMPLAINT and ail tho Bilious Derangements so prevalent in the South and Southwest, has induced the venders of many worthless nostrums to claim for their preparations similarmedieinal virtues. Be not deceived ! lilc. 71<-I. \ N IPS Celebrated 1.1 Vl.lt 1M1.1.S are the original and only reliable remedy for Liver Complaint that has yet beendiseovered, and we urge the Planter aud Merchant, as he values his own aud the health of those depending on him, to be careful in ordering. Take ncltner Vermifuge nor Liver Pills,unless you arc sure you are gettingtke genuine McLANE’S, prepared by FLEMING BROTHERS, PITTSBURG, PA. 11l ottering to the public DR. M< LANE’S CELEBRATED LIVER PILLS as a remedy for LIVER and BILIOUS COMPLAINTS, we presume no apology will be needed. The great prevalence of Liver Complaint and Bilious Diseases of all kinds throughout the United States, and peculiarly in the West and South, where, in the majority of eases, the patient is not within the reach of a regular physician, requires that some remedy should be provided, that would not in the least impair the constitu tion, and yet be safe and effectual. That such is the true character of DR. McLANE’S LIVER PILLS, there can be no doubt. The testimony we lay before you, and tin great success which lias invariably attended their use, will, we think be sufficient to convince Ihe most incredulous. It has been our sincere wish.that these Pills should be fairly and fully tested, and stand or fall by the effects.produced. That they have been so tested, anil that the result has been in every respect favorable, we call thou sands to witucssw ho have experienced their beneficial effects. DR. McLANE’S LIVER PILLS, are not held fortli or recommended (like most ol # the popular medicines of the day,) as universal cure-alls, but simply for LIVER* COMPLAINTS, aud (Lose symptoms connected with a deranged state of that organ. DISEASES OF THE LIVER. The Liver i.*> much more frequently the scut of disease than ia generally supposed. The function it is designed to perform, and on the* regular execution of which depend nut onlythe general health of the body, lnit the powers of the Stomach, Bowels, Drain, and the whole Nervous System, shows its vast and vital importance to human health. When the Liver is seriously diseased it in fact not only deranges the vital functions of the body, but exercises apowerful influence over the mind uiuWts operations, which cannot easily be described. It lias so close a connection to other diseases, and mani fests itself by so great a variety of symptoms, of a most doubtful character, that it misleads more physicians, even of great eminence, than any other organ. The intimate connection which exists between the Liver and the Brain, and the great dominion which I am persuaded it exercises over the passions ol mankind, convince me that many unfortunate beings have committed acts of deep and criminal atrocity, or be come what tools term hypochondriacs, from the simple fact of a diseased state of th Liver. 1 have long been convinced that more than, one half of the complaints which occur i.i this country, arc to be considered as having their seats in a diseased state of the Liver. I will enumerate some of them: Indigestion, Stoppage of the Menses, Deranged state of the Bowels, Irritable and Vindictive Feelings and Passions from trifling ami inadequate causes, of which we afterwards feel ashamed; last, though not least, more than three-fourths of the diseases enumerated Under the head ot Consumption, have their seat in a diseased Liver. This is trutly a frightful catalogue. SIMPTOHS or A I.IVIOR. Pain in the right side, under the edge of the ribs, increasing on pressure; sometimes the pain is in the left Side ; the patient is rarely able to lie on the left side ; sometimes the pain is felt under the shoulder blade, and it frequently extends to the top of the shoulder, and is some times mistaken for rheumatism inthe arm. The stomach is affected with loss of appetite and sickness ; the bowels in general are costive, sometimes alternating with lax; the head is troubled with pain, accompanied with dull, liyavy scnsaalon in the buck part. There is generally a considerable loss of memory, accompanied with a painful sensation :>t having left undone something which ought to havebecn done. A slight dry eougli is sometimes an attendant. The patient complains of weariness and debility ; he is easily startled ; his feet are cold or burning, and he complains ffcjt prickly sensation of the skin ; liis spirits are low; and although lie is satisfied*, that, exercise would be beneficial to him, yet he can scarcely-summon np forude tiy/i turh to try it. In fact,he distrusts every remedy. Several ol the above symptoms attend the disease; but eases have occurred where few of them existed, yet examination of the body after death has shown the Liver to have been extensively deranged. (Uilli: A.\l> FKI*KK.-DK. McLANE’S LIVER PILLS in cases of AGUE AND FEVEK, when taken with Quinine, are productive of happy results. No better cathartic can be used preparatory to, or after taking Quinine. W e would advise all who are afflicted with thediscase to give them a trial. Direction**—Take two or three Pills on going to bed, every second or third night. lit In y do not purge two or three times next morning, take one or two more; but a slight bruukfast should invariably follow their use. The Liver Pills maybe used where purging simply isncccssary. As anti-bilious purgative, they are inferior to none, and in doses of two or three, they give astonishing relief in Sick Headache; also in slight derangements of the Stomach. Lm. McLANE’-S AMERICAN WORM SPECIFIC OR VERMIFUGE. No fiisoa.se to w hieh the human body i* liable are better entitled to the attention ot the philanthropist than those consequent on the irritation produced by WORMS in the Stomach and Bow els. When the sufferer is an adult, the cause is frequently over looked. and consequently the proper remedy is not applied. But when the patient is an infant, if the disease is not entirely neglected, it is still too frequently ascribed, in whole or in part, to some other cause llought here to he particularly remorked, that although hut few worms may exist in a child, andtiowsoever quiescent they may have been previously, no sooner is the constitution invaded by any any of thcnuiuerous tram of diseases to which infancy is exposed, than it is fearfully augmented by their irritation. Hence it too frequently happens that a disease otherwise easily managed by proper remedies, when aggravated by that cause', bids defiance to treatment, judi cious in other respects but w hich entirely fails in consequence of worms being over looked. And even in eases of great violence, if a potent and prompt remedy he pos sessed, so that they could be expelled without loss of time, w hich is so precious in such cases, the Jease might he attacked, by proper remedies, even-handed, ami with success.
