HARDEE. | December 14, 1806: 4b-tl mils, and' tli rough tho d«‘Ur», Arid thronging groups-csvino wending on, udown each crowded street, To mingle in the solemn prayer, or join injjraises sweet. And when the man of God arose, to bless the waiting crowd, • And when to God, high over all. in humble pray er, lie bowed In holy -trust arid godly fear, the waiting mass stood still. To hear the holy lessons taught,J and leaiujheir Master's will. E'en thus it was in bygone days, when hopes were bright ami fair; I'lll now the lyre has changed its note, the min strel changed his air, The wind in whisperin'; murmurs creep around the mined walls. And owls and bats their vigils keep, amid those blackened halls. Sweet village, crowned with happiness, ero war, with blighting hand. Spread desolation dark and drear, athwart our lovely .land: Ero Sherman, with his Godless bands, of mixed and mingled bVeed, With wanton avarice, swonKand brand, swept mountain, moor and mead. But hark! IVom every mountain top, the trumpet note is heard; And springing from each cave and nook, with swoid and pistol gird. Como stalwart men, and youths, and buys, all ready lor the fray -. And to be lbund at hohor 3 post, When came the fearful day. • But oh! amid the clartfc of arms, qnd dill of battle slflfe. How many of those noble ones have passed away IVom life? For in each battle, lost or won, did Georgia take her part, As many orphan tears now tell, and widowed broken heads And thou, fair daughter of the hills, lmthsocu the lbcman stand Amid thy streets, and pleasant walks, with rock ing sword in hand; And thou hath seen thy homesteads laid in ashes at thy feet- The angels too, have marked the deed, and wait the vengeance meet. . How oft, when winters dreary blast is sweeping o'er the plain. ] think of one bright happy home, shut in from storm and rain, And of the rose cheeked happy band, of children as they gp From house to house, to swell the crowd and frolic in the snow. But, what now are those happy homes the tower ing. chimneys show Outstanding monuments of shame, amid the trade* lesssnW; And’where, oh! where, that gleesome band? as leaves of autumn, they Have scattered; some to distant lauds, and some have passed away. Bad dessolufcion marks the spot; but still assem ble i here A lew to share each other’s toil, or join in mu tual cheer; Nor will they, ms the years roll round, forg -t appointed day, To strew with, liowfers. those warrior’s graves, Uom loved ones far away. And will you. as you strew them wide, save each a Uttl<j flower. For one lone -grave we stood beside, in Autumn s tw'light hour - That hour,so fraught with loneliness, ere night her curtains spread, , We laid our warrior down to rest, among the sleeping dead. i)ear Arwoi a, thou Wert first of many Southern braves, Who, in that sacred burial ground, have filled their soldier graves; And though droud war and battle clang have rent the quivering air. Thou still has slept, us sweetly on, as though no foe were near. And when the .quiet evening spreads its slilly influence round, How sweet to linger out the day, upon the sa | ered ground; To close tie- eyes to dying earth, and look be yond the tomb-- The joyous hope of meeting there, robs death of half Its gloom. But, Cassville, thou art what has been, aud nev er move may be; But be thy future what it will, my 'lk art si ll clings to thee. Ulistcllitiieoits Altai)itto. The Discoveries at Pompeii. A correspondent of tlic Bangor Whig, who has recently visited the buried city of Poirpeii, thus describes what lie saw there: In a baker’s over, which we saw, were eighty loaves of bread, with the inline ol the baker stamped upon them. As 1 saw this stamp, and afterwards large quantities of brands sneti as are used now-a-days for burning the names ol dealers upon barrels and boxes, 1 could l>Ht reflect how nearly the ancients came to the invention of printing, an art to which modern civilization is so much in debted. Here we have all but tire move able types. Why did not some (liHtiii ! burg c iiiceive the idea oi separating t lie j letters? llow different \vouid the rail si - j ijuent history of the world have neon I art j this simple and easy contrivance been adopted 1 Wo saw eggs loo’iug as il Olxeetp* for Casli. and jewelry they were fully our equals, We visited numerous temples, busili eas, baths, torribs and places of general interest. We walked over the original pavement, worn on each, side of the street to the depth of several inches by the whe Is cf ancient chariots; we saw frescoes as gay In Color and graceful in drawing as any in modern times; we walked upon mosaic pavements showing tile highest skill and most beautiful com binations of colors, and thus we wander ad Lhruugh this city of tire dead, from street to street, from house to house. Incident in the Case us Witz. A correspondent of the -Ndw Yolk World, writing from Bichincml, makes the following extraordinary statement : It is perhaps not generally known that during the incarceration of Witz and Major Winder in tie) Capitol prison, they occupied adjoining cells, and enjoyed facilities of communication, one to the other by words or writing, through an aperture nut observed, doubtless, byjlie jailor. Xu one wets permitted to see either unless by special privilege from the Secretary of War. On the night previous to the execution of Wire three men outerml his cell, of course by per mission of ritunton, and proposed to him, that if he would agave to implicate .Toss. Davis itr the aliedgod conspiracy to starve the Northern prisoners confined at Andersonville his life would he spar ed. Wirz replied that he would not save his own life by sacrificing that, of anoth er innocent man. The parties thereupon left the cell, and Wirz immediately com municated ull that transpired to Major Winder. The Major Sometime after met Mrs. Davis in New York, and revealed to In r what is here stated, backing it up by an affidavit, which lie gave her, and which she now holds. The trial ofDavis r '-mid involve revelations which would shock humanity, ami test to its fullest whatever sense of justice or feeling of national pride is still left at the North. It is not unreasonable to presume that popular indignation would he aroused to j. a pitch that would render it unsafe for the eonooctors of the vile plans devised to secure the sacrifice of Davis’ life, to prolong their residence aiming a people whose fame and character they so gross ly outraged. Should not the names of the irio who made this infamous proposition to Wirz he traced out by some means If the World would initiate some movement to that end it is probable that some light ini 111 tie obtained which would fix the . identify of these vUliana. The time is eminently auspicious for such an inquiry now that, the rogues are aiviilg ng each other’s iniquities. .It may bo that Major 1 Winder has some information which would'give a clue to the names of the parties. If he has, lie should he induced to furnish it and then the wretches should be held up to the" universal scorn and contempt they so riclfiy merit. Fcnxy Ixenm.vT—On the steamer In diana, on one other trips down the Mis sissippi, there happened to lie on hoar.! a 1 lousier from the Wabash, who was going to New Orleans, ami had provided liimself with an old fiddle, fancying lie. could fiddle as well as the next, mini, and planting himself where lie could lit tract notice, scraped away. The fellow couldn't fWdle any more than a setting hen, and. the horrible noise disturbed his fellow passengers. A Frenchman of very deli cate nerves and musical ear wan especial ly annoyed, lie fluttered, he fidgeted, I and swore at the fiddle. The passengers tried various expedients to rid them selves of the Iloosier and his fiddle,- but it was no go; he swore he’d “musiek just lus long as lie pleased.” At last a bjg Kentuckian sprang from his seat, saying “i'll fix him.” l'laciug liimself by ill - fiddler, he commenced braving with all his might. The effect of tins move w-as beyond description. Old Kentucky brayed so loud that lie drowned the screeching of the fiddle, aud amid the shouts < f the passengers the discomfit ted Iloosier retreated leaving the-Kentuckian, and his imitation of Ba j luain’s friend. The delight nt the French I mini knew no hounds, and quiet was j restored. During the night the Ki ntnck inn- left the boat. The next morning, . bein'e breakfast, the passengers wee i startled by the discordant sounds of the tormentor. Iloosier had discovered the i coast was clear and was bound to re j venge jiimself on the passengers. Louder and v oise tjian ever screamed the fiddle, j The 1-ffciK-.liman just scaled to read his j paper gu flic first sound rose and linking I niixioWty ar. und shrugged his shoulder anil then shunted, " i arc. is lia ? lav is hi' ? tyjt/c/i / tjuicl’ ! l ore is Monsieur Arn/ircd', do inuii cat / J ‘a jon dc Jact a.- .- . ” Mfii"lv pi if poor dusty hay, arnf musty oats, if they are kept in low, illy ventilated stablas ; if they are compell ed to stand in their stalls fetlock deep in' mud or their own tilth ; if they are wor ked hard and brought in at night wet with sweat or rain, and their Icgß and bellies covered with mud and then a to tal neglect of cleaning, nibbing, and making d.*n for table : is it wonderful that, horses should deteriorate and sicken anil die ? • To keep in fine health and spirits ; so have a shiny glossy coat ; to work will ingly aud cheerfully ; to win his affec tions he must receive proper treatment. At (his season of the year, salt anil wood ashes mixed—say two par sos salt ami one of ashes —should be kept stan ding bufor ■ all horses. It is we believe a sure preventative of hols, colic, worms &c. A good big lump of rock salt al ways lying in lhe manger will keep & horse in health. Carrots and parsnips, cooked or raw and given to horses are au excellent alternative, and are protnotivo* of digestion and- give tbne to the s'om aoho. Bran mashes should be given once or twice a week to all horses that are kept up. They are made by using' about five quarts of bran for each horse, and pouring boiling water over it, and putting in a bale salt and letting it stand lib cool and then feeding to the horse. (Kind bright hay and oats only blioulil ho fed. It is an outrage to mis treat so noble an animal as the horse.— Catmints Rural World. Wiiat rr Cost-—The New YTirk World thus vigorously sums up the result of the late war : "To accomplish the i mancipation of the negro we have hardened the nation with a colossal debt, impoverished and' beggared cue-half of' the country, We have.deranged our currency, subverted our Constitution corrupted, the public! morals, clothed hundreds of thousand* of families in mourning and maimed Luu drcils of thousands of surviving citizens; .we have created famine prices for food have turned onr trading classes and bank ing institutions into cliques of specula tors wo have destroyed our shipping in terest and worse than all have tilled the. hearts of our poop c with" rancorus and malignant passions aid poisoned the whole social aud political atmosphere. If the negro has been elevated the while laborin' has boon, depressed halfway to' meet him. For what is the essence of slavery? What but' this, that, one man works ntul smother takes from him the fruit of his labor ? - iieloro the war all' that the white labor earned was his own now half of it is wrested from him by the Governrficrif." It is with difficulty that’ he ran fetid nnd clothe his family ; but food and clothing are what the Southern slaves never wanted. The white labor er's children go ragged and shoclesß to' meet the cost of emancipating the ne groes. The price must ho paid to tVic : utmost farthing, and our politics must tain for many years to come, on qnes j lions connected with .the just distribution* of the burden.” A QfF.sTmv op Mm-XTAivs.-ifas Califor ! nia in- Oregon the highest mountain in ; lhe United States is a question which is now occupying the attention of scientific men of the coast. The question lies be tween Mount flood in Oregon, and Mount Whitney in California. The form or. is 15,0(10 feet high, aud the latter, up’ ;to last August lias been reputed to be 12,000. At that lime Prof’. Wood as celt-" iled Mount I [pod and reported its heig'ht' to lie 11,000 feet. The report has exei ! ted no little aston'sliment. The latitude^ , and longitude are easily ascertained, and are probably correctly stated on the' maps of the United States coast survey It seems a little strange that if the molin' tain was 17,000 feet high that it has not been discovered before this and it is the general opinion among scientific men that l’rof. Wood has made a mistake.— Prof U hitnoy made some remark* upon' i this question at tlic February meeting | of tin- California Academy of Natural 1 .Viouces and ho called attention to fWd’ fart that a correct calculation of Prof, Wood’s observations would make Mount llood not 17,000 feet, but 34,000 stet high ! Dr. Ni u berry, who is considered 1 gmal authority, says that forest trees are" not found more than 0,500 foot above the i’a at Mount Hood, whereas Prof. Wood' -ays they grow to 9,000 feet. An inves t.pat ion to be made this summer witf 1 probably deprive Mount Ho and of the honor ol beii-g the high mount aid in > the United States.
