the most moving and imprsstive
speech to which I have ever listen
ed. Circumrances gsve it force
and character. During its deliv
ery men could be seen peeping on
every side. Men who had faced
death on many held*, aud had
fought with manly firmness from
Bull Run to Appomattox; were
breaking down under the force of
that terrible woid. surrender.—
But the brave can weep as wed as
tight for their country. Upon go
iug to the division ordnance wag
ons ! found the Lieutenant-four
mander weeping like a child. Ad
dressing ms he said : ‘*l have
fought the Yankees from the be
ginning until now, and to surren
der io them is more than I can
bear, It seems like it will break
my hear'.” Hope was dead. The
grave was ready. Its funeral so
lemnities weie too weighty for the
brave.
.Night came on. Bui what a
night. Such stealing as took place
I never heard or read of before.—
It seemed like everything that
could be stolen was stolen. Just
before the sun wen e’own a sub
altern of the Quartermaster s De
prrtrnent, whose condition bespoke
an excess of whisky, stepped up
to me, and with much earnestness,
said : “I tell you, Mr. P., the
Confederacy is gone up. Now*

we go to the wagons, get a horse

Work
We must work while we live;
there it no place for folded
hands, but the grave. When wo
stand by a bier aed look ai the the
stillwhitahands,we know theirwork
is dot e on earth. Bnt while w e
live, a*id wherever we live, there
is work for u« to do. If we are
poor, we must work for breal
and raimen'. We mustwork fer tho
good of others of mankind in
general, and for own happiness,
for whoever was happy unless at
work. The merry whistle of tLm
plowboy, as he toils from dawn
to dusk, the love sweet song of
the sewing g rl, or the soft, ten
der lulabby of the tired mother,
all attest that there is a fountain
of happiness hidden in the human
heart, which bubbles and liowe on
ly for those who work Are you
in trouble? There is nothing
that will kill it like woik. Are
you unhappy? work brings con
tentment. Have misfortunes op
pressed you? go io work, and
God will do the rest Kr you.
God loves those who woik, and
despises those who do not, he
warns no idlers, aud will have
none.
’’What are you cryiug ab'*uv?
asked a kind hearted stranger of
a lad who was s 1 an ling in front
of a newspaper office weeping
as if his heart would break
"Oh, dad’s gene rip stairs to
lick the edtor.”
“Well, has he come down yet?"
pursued ihc good Samaritan.
“Pieces of him have,” explained
the boy, indtilgiuing in a fresh
out burst of tears, “and lam ex
pee*.ii,g the rest every minute.”
‘•This is the p >wer behind the

You may kick a negro from New

y>u only call him a “colored gen

There is nothing on earth thai
will rile a nigger quicker or more
effectually than to call him a nig

The literary niggers are the
worst of all.

called a negro as when dubbed a
