Before I trust nty fate to tlioo, Or plnco my hand in thine, Before I let thy future give Color and form to mine, Bcforo I peril all for thoo, question thy soul to-night for me. I break all slighter bonds, nor feel A shadow of regrot; Is there one link within tho past That holds thy spirit yet? Or is thy faith ns clear and tree as that which I can pledgo to thee? Poos there within thy dimmest dream A possible futuro shine, YVherein thy life could henceforth breathe Untouched, unshared by mine? If so, at any pain or cost, 0, tell mo before all is lost. Look deeper still. If thou canst feol Within thy inmost soul That thou hast kept a portion back, YVhile I have staked the whole, Let no false pity spare the blow, but in true mercy tell mo so. Is tliero within thy heart a need That mine cannot fulfill ? One chord that any other hand Could better wake or still ? Speak now, lest at some future day my whole life withqr and decay. Lives there within thy nature hid The domon spirit Change, Shedding a passing glory still On all things now and strange ? It may not bo thy fault alone—but shield my heart against thy own. Oouldst thou withdraw thy hand one day, And answer to my claim, That Fate, and that to-day’s mistake— Not thou—had been to blame ? Some sootho their conscience thus; but thou wilt surely warn and save me now. Nay, answer not—l dare not hear, The words would come too late ; Yet I would spare thee all remorse ; So comfort thee, my Fate— YVhatover on my heart may fall—remember I would risk it all! Outrages by the United States Soldiery in Louisiana. A gentleman writes to the New Orleans Bee of a recent date as follows : On Sunday afternoon an old gentleman, one of the oldest and most respectablo of our French population, wishing to take some quiet recreation in company with his little grand son, took the Dauphin street cars and proceeded to the barracks, below the city. There they sat down on the benches which are placed on the bank of the river, outside tho barracks enclo sure. While sitting there, the negro sentinel on duty in front of the gates rudely bawled out, “Got out of thero; you cannot sit there! ’ The gentleman, who is quits old, and be sides understands English hut imperfectly, did not hear the order— in fact, did not understand it. It was repealed once or twice, when he, having his attention elicited by tho repetition of the angry tines, turned his head, and per ceived the brutal and cowardly assassin in tho act of leveling his piece to fire at him. Then, understanding to somo degree tho import of the order, lio immediately rose and left the place. The question is—and is one in which our whole people are interested —is it a part of the orders that General Mower lately received in relation to the placing his department in a state of defense, that his ignorant ruffians are to insult and shoot down defenseless and unof fending citizens? Or does General Mower himsolf give such orders on his own responsi bility? Or does any of his subordinates? Does he approve of the action of this negro sentinel? If so, it is time that our people kuow exactly upon wliat footing they stand. The Hardest Lesson. The hardest lesson a human being can learn is that of sell-conquest. That once learnt, all the rest is easy. Perhaps it is more difficult for a woman, for women arc more impulsive than men. It is terrible for any one to set aside all things else for the sake of duty ; to say »his hope, this joy, this thing that makes life beautiful stands in tho way of what ought to be first, and turn one’s back upon it; but it can be done, and must be done by every one at some time. One must learn, also, the sup pression of emotions which it is not wise to express. If they cannot be killed, then buy them alive, and say nothing. One almost dies in tho attempt, but the proudest momont of any life is when it can he said with truth, “I can do what I will with myself; I have no habit I cannot in an instant break ; I have no thought I cannot refuse expression ; I can for bid myself to be angry, to seek vengeance, to resent even uncalled-for insult and imperti nence ; and I can take even love, tho strongest of all human emotions, from my heart, and stranglo it, when to love would be either wrong or foolish.” Tho men who drink to excess, the men who gamble, and the women who die of love for some fellow incapable of appre ciating them, arc people incapable of soll’- conquest. Think of that, and learn to conquer your heart, your mind and your appetites. An English paper gives a curious calculation of the weight in gold which each of the liber ated Abyssinian captives has cost the country. Ten millions sterling, reduced to weight in sovereigns, represents 78 tons, 12 cw'ts., 1 qr., 14 lbs., 8 oz., or for each of the sixty men, women and children released from tho clutches of King Theodore, an expenditure in solid •Told of 1 ton, b owts., 23 lbs. and 1 v z - (From the Imperialist.] General Robert E. Lee. Tho great crises of the world’s progressive sure to develop or bring forward great central characters —men of exceptional power and go nius—round whom not only men but events naturally group themselves. Such an one, be yond all doubt, is tho man whoso name wc have placed at the head of this article. What ever differences of opinion may exist as to the naturo of the moral responsibility which he assumed in accepting the command of tho ar mies of the Confederacy, it is hardly to lio presumed that many men, even at tho North, are still so blinded by the bitter feelings cn gendeted in tho great conflict that they' fail to discern and acknowledge tho remarkable abil ity of the chieftain whose single name and individual force so long sustained a sinking cause. Hardly in the gathering clouds of tho closing scenes of his military career is the strength and dignity of Gen. Lee’s character obscured. Even those who fought against him, and we were among them, cannot with hold from him a certain amount of respectful admiration. Our abject at this tiino, however, is by no means to prepare a eulogy upon the great Southern leader and champion. In previous articles wo have tried to point out tho fact that more than a few of the representative monos the North were silently but assuredly awaken ing to tho truth of tho position which we have so bcllly assumed, and it is our belief that the stronger and clearer minds among our Southern fellow-citizens aro not wanting in a similar perception. YVe have therefore selee ted General Lee as a narno sufficiently promi nent to point our moral. From the day when he surrendered to Gen, Grant and accepted the failure of the political enterprise, for which he had sacrificed so much, his position has been one of silent and digni fied aoquie cinee iu the results of the war ; but it is not to be gathered from this that he fails to comprehend those results in all their length and breadth. It may rather be believ ed he clearly perceives the drilt of public af fairs, and is contented like thousands «f oth ers of our best and wisest, to wait in peaceful patience for tho inevitable developments of tho future. Conscious that tho old ropublic'has ceased to exist, the sagacious leader sees no reasons for trying to persuade himself that the country can contiuue forever in its present transition state, but calmly waits for the future in the attitude of a man who will assume no respon sibility for that which ho cannot prevent. And in all this Gen. Lee and all those who imitate him, are acting well and wisely. Their course can give no offence to any,while it tends to allay those partisan prejudices which if fostered by the jealous watchfulness which, they too spee dy return to public life would cause, might hereafter interfere with their patriotic useful ness in the better days to come. Still, in pondering tho great events in which they have been partakers, such men must at times be struck with the vast difference be tween that which they attempted, and that which they accomplished ; they attempted sim ply to divide the Union, and they determined the fact that a Republic was no longer possi ble in America; refusing longer to be govern ed by the Constitution they enabled the coun try - and world to see that tho Constitution no longer.governed anything. In defending ‘State rights’ they secured the abolition of even State lines, and they may now, as tlr-y consult to gether over tho past and the future, say to one another, “we indeed failed, but a great work has been done nevertheless. Lot us wait.” That General Lee has no high opinion of our existing institutions must he evident to all who have watched his oourse, nor Can even tho most rabid idolator of the caucus form of government blame him if ho refuses to shut his eyes to the hope of better things which is held out to him by the greater national strength and industrial freedom which the em pire will guarantee. YVe have simply presented General Lee as a representative man, a prominent type, but thero are others not less so, of whom wo shall speak hereafter. A witness was examined before a judge in a case of slander, who required him to speak the precise words spoken. The witness, fixing his eyes earnestly on the judge, began : “May it please your Honor, you lie, and steal, and get your living by cheating." The face of tho judge reddened, and lie exclaimed, “Turn your hsad toward tho jury when you speak.’’ If you are a wise man you will treat the world as tho moon treats it. Show it only one side of yourself, seldom show yourself too much at a time, and let what you show bo calm, cool and polished. But look at every side of the world. A cotemporary says of an eloquent preach er : “During the sermon, he paid a high tri bute to the character of Christ.” Os the two thousand citizens in Indianapo lis, who swore off from drinking, the first of January, eleven still hold truo, seven being editors. A newspaper in a rival city thus speaks of a promising western town : “A Chicago paper ooneludes an account of a marriage in that city with the declaration that ‘the partios were then united for life.’ If they were it was certainly the first thing of the kind that has ever occured there since tho flood.” • Cincinnati now contains as many inhabi tants as did the entire State of Ohio, twenty years after its settlement.

Be in earnest. Be self reliant. Read good hooks. Love your fellow men as your God ; love your country and obey the lawe ; lovo truth ; love virtue. Always do wliut your conscience tells you to boa duty, and leave the consequence with God. — . .. ■ 1 - A Twenty Acre Cotton Crop. In the Cultivator, for June, Mr.’ David Dick son, of Hancock, says : “ On the 3d of May I commenced the twenty acre lot and finished on the 10th of May ; com menced planting the 7th of May ; tamed un der a fine eoat of green manure ; used 800 lbs. of my compound per acre. It made thirty-two bales—the last one being a bag and a half, and paid a dividend on $4,000 per acre, after paying all expenses, and improving the capital tan per oeut. on what it would sell for ; but as 1 wish to be fair, I will state the sale of the seed increased the net dividends two-thirds or more, bat the lint alone paid a net dividend of one thousand dollars or more per acre.” At apolitical meeting the speaker and au dience were very much disturbed by a man who constantly called out for Mr. Henry.— YVhenover anew speaker came on, this man Ytawled out for ‘Mr. Henry ! Henry ! Henry 1 Henry ! I call for Mr. Henry 1' After several interruptions of this kind at each speech, a young man ascended to the platform, and was soon airing his eloquence in magniloquent stjle, striking out powerfully in his gestures, when the old cry was heard for ‘Mr. Henry 1 Henry 1 Henry ! Honry 1 I call for Mr. Henry!’ The chairman now rose and remarked that it would oblige the audience if thee gentleman would refrain from any further calling for Mr. Henry, as that gentleman was speaking. ‘ls that Mr. Henry ?’ said the disturber of the meeting. ‘Thunder, that can’t be Mr. Henry 1 Why that's the little old cuss that told me to holler I' Wells Calls Grant a Drunken Ass. —Mr. YVells, Radical candidate for Governor of Vir ginia, pronounces Grant “an ass, and what is worso, a drunken ass.” His account of his interview with the President is thus given in the Petersburg Express : “When we entered the room, he was lean ing oYer the table with a segar in his mouth, and his chin resting on both hands. His eyes was fishy, and he ineffectually attempted to rise as we came in. YVe introduced our busi ness at once. ‘Mr. YVells' said he, ‘my desire is peace and harmony throughout tho country and I will even sacrifice my principles (if I have any) to secure these things. Os course, as far as I can do so, without interfering with my main purpose, I will favor you as a good Republican, but you must not expect me to venture the success offfiiy administration in your behalf. I consider that the- Virginians themselves are chiefly to be consulted in this matter, not you. I say this after due deliber ation, and I shall put the same views before my Cabinet.” Ball Room Morals. The press aDd people of tho Old Dominion are now earnestly discussing the impropriety of round dances. The ‘German’ shocks tho sensibilities of the good dames, who appeal to their daughters to shun its contaminating in fluences. One lady exclaims in the Richmond Whig : “Maidens, do you not remember the time 'when, if a lover, whose honor was unsullied as his heart was pure and truo, if he, in chiv alrous devotion, might touch the rosy tips of your soft, white fingers, he felt himself most honored above mankind ?

VOL. 4 NO. 30 Terrific Rnht hud Bail Storm. About 3 o’clock on tho afternoon of the 28th' of May tho most terrific rain and hail •torat' Over known in that vicinity, passed OvsrTVfceH ing, Vn. For full twenty minutes hail stones as largo as oggs, and somo even larger than a man’* fist, fell liko rain. YVater rushed down Mon roe street with irresistible fury, carrying away boxes, barrels, and bales, with the current.’ Market and Main streets wore flooded to the depth of a foot, and, tho sewer* boing obstruct ed by ice, the water flowed into cellars of wore-’' houses, doing much damage. Main street, from Monroe to Quinoy, was' covered with hail stones to the depth of twtf’ foot. All the East and South windows, froth' tho suspension bridge to the creek, were ken, and many awnings were completely rid-i died. Tho number of panos broken were etti mated by thousands. The loss of twohotela' alone amount to $2,000. Tho vineyards on' the islands and hills surrounding the city wen 1 ' greatly injured, and fruit and shade trees WeA’’. torn up hy the roots, or completely stripped of foliage. The iron roof of the Baltimore and' Ohio depot was blown off. Many accidents'' are reported, but no lives were lost. The afternoon train on the Hamilton Rail*’ road was compelled to return before reaching the outskirts of theeity. The boltof tho storin'' did not extend more than a mile above the city, and the lower wards escaped the hail shower entirely. The loss is variously estimated af from $20,000 to $50,000. A Curiosity, A phenomenon more wonderful aod strug# than has appeared on earth since the orentiorf of our first parents, is now on exhibition nt tM Crescent City Museum, 40 and 42 St. Charier* street, opposite the main entrance to the St. Charles Hotel, New Orleans. It i* » case of lusus naturae so very remarkable, that the learned and scientific find a subject that bas« flos their comprehension, and a field of study of absorbing interest. Tho phenomenon re* ferred to is Christine Milly, the comely, intel- . ligent and interesting “ Two Haadod Girl," a pleasing female, seventeen years old, who ’ possesses the attributes of two perfect heads, a brilliant mental quality, aod but one mentaF organization. The mind usually associates something hid-' eous or repulsive in strange or remarkable freaks of nature, but this case is a singular’ exception in every minutia ; her heads are ' perfect in formation, with intelligent, pretty and pleasing faces ; her form and limbs sym metrical and finely developed ; her movements are easy and graceful; her mind is expansive and well cultivated, and her education and ac complishments are beyond the ordinary stand*' ard. Among some of the many peculiarities of this great wonder, ie her ability to converse with two persons, on different subjects, at the same time ; to sing very beautifully two parte*' of an air at onee, or converse and sing to* * gethcr.—[Ex. Remembering and Forgetting. It is quite a good thing to be able to retnem ber, but it is no loss desirable to bo able to for* get. Happiest among men is he whose will exorcises the strongest control over his mom* ory, for he can bury his cares in oblivion, anch record the pleasant incidents of his life where “ every day he turns the leaf to read them." Some men can remember nothing. Theirs is a great misfortune, for experience is of no use to them. They walk in darkness, minus the lamp by which wiser feet are guided, and of course stumble as they go. There are oth* - ers whose vile forte it is to remember pleasnr* ably all that good men strive to dismiss from their recollection. Their minds aro like filtergf which permitYhat which is pure and excellent to run through them, bat retain whatever i*r coarse and noxious. Their fund of immoral information is inexhaustible, but of facts which illustrate the best traits of human nature of tho wisdom and benevolence of its Aathor, their memories are bare. There is a very large class that cannot remember benefits—another that nevor forget wrongs. In short, the spe-* eialitios of memory and forgetfulness are man ifold.
