Heir to sorrow, pain aud trials, Friends no longer here behold tbee ; Child of grief and seif denials, Bleeding hearts no more enfold thee. Finished are thy days of weeping, No more sin or euuse for sighing, All thy troubles now are sleeping, In oblivion’s dark totnb lying Soou thy pilgrimage has ended, Rest thy weary feel is greeting, ■Souls congenial now are blended, Friends long absent thou art meeting. Now a robe of dazzling whiteness Thy celestial figure graces, And a crown of gloiious brightness Thy fair, lovely temples graces. Livliest gratitude is swelling Thy full soul to overflowing, While on mercy thou art dwelling, With angelic raptures glowing. Loud thy golden harp is ringing With redemption’s wondrous story ; Loftiest anthems thou art singing To the triune God of glory.

I had a uarver scape from the sunny South. “The swings and arrers of outrajus fortin,” alluded to by Hamliek, wan’t nothing in comparison to my truhles. I came pesky uear swearin’ sum profane oaths more’n onct, but 1 hope l didn’t do it, for I’ve prouiist she whose name shall be nameless (except that her initials is Betsey J.,) that I’ll jine the Meetin 1 House at Baldiusville jest as soon as I can scrape money enuff together so I can ’ford to he piuss in good stile like my welthy nabers. But if I’m confistieated agin I’m afraid I shall con tinner on in my preseut benited state for sum time. 1 figgered eonspicyusly in many thrillin scenes in my tower from Montgomery to my humsted, and on sevril occasions l thought “the grate komic paper” wouldn’t never be inriched no more with my lubrications.— Arter biddiu adoo to Jefferson D., I started for the depo. I saw a nigger sittin on a feuee a playin ou a banjo. “My Afrikin Brother,” sed I, cotin from a Track I onct red, “you belong to a very iuterestin race. Your masters is goin to war excloosively on your account.” “Yes, boss,” he replied, and lie vveut on playin’ the banjo, larfin all over and openin’ his mouth wide enuff to drive in au old fash ioned 2 wheeled chaise. The train of ears in which I was to trust my wallerble life was the scaliest, rickytiest lookin’ lot of eousarns that I ever saw on wheels afore. “ What time does this string of second hand coffins leave?” I enquired of the depot master. He sed diieckly, and I went in & sot down. I hadn’t moro’n fairly squatted afore a dark lookin’ man with a swiuister expres ion onto his countenance j entered the cars, and lookin’ very sharp at me, he asked what was my principles? “Secesh!” I ansered, “I’m a Dissoluter. 1 I’ni iu favor of Jeff. Davis, Bouregard, Pick ens, Capt. Kidd, Bloobeard, Munroe Edards, the devil, Mrs. Cunningham, aud all the rest of ’em.” “ You’re in favor of the war?” “Ceitingly. By all means. I’m iu fa vor of this war and also of the next war.— I’ve been in favor of the next for over six teen years.” “ War to the knive!” stn| the man. *'Blud, Eargo, blud?*’ sed I, tho them words isn’t origernal witk we. Them words was rit by iShakspear, who is ded. His Mantle fell outo the author of “ The Seven Sisters,” who’s goi,u’ to have a Spring over ’ coat made out of it. We got under way at larst, an’ proceeded on our jerney at about the rate of speed I which is giurally obsarved by properly con- I ducted funeral processions. A ban sum vuug gal, with a red musketcr bar ou the back part of her bed, aud sassy little black hat tipt over her forrerd, sot iu the seat with me. She wore a little Sesesh flag pin’d on to her hat, aud she was goin to her troo love, who had jined the Southern army, and so hold and so gay. So she told me. She was chilly and 1 ottered her my blanket. “Father livin ?” I axed. “ Yes, ser.” “Got any Uncles?” “A heap. Uncle Thomas is ded, tho.” “Peace io Uncle Thomas’ ashes, and suc- cess to him ! 1 will be your Uncle Thomas! Lean on me, my pretty Secesher, and linger in Blissful repose!” She slept as seeoorly as iu her own housen, and didn't disturb the solium stillness of the night with ’ary snore. At the first station a troop of Sojers en tered the cars and inquired if “Old Wax W orks” was on board. That was the dis respectly stile in which they referred to me. “ Becawz if Old Wax Works is on bord,” sez a man with a face like a doublebrested lobster, “we are goin to hang Old Wax Works!” “My illustrious and patriotic Bummers ;** sez I, a gitting p and taking ors my shap po, “if you elludu to A. Ward, it’s my plcasiu dooty to inform you that he’s ded. He saw the error of his ways at 15 minits past 2 yesterday, and stabbed liisself with a stuffed sledstake, divin in five beautiful tab loos to slow moosic! His last words was: “My perfeshernal career is over ! 1 jerk no more!” “ And who be you ?” “I’m a stoodent in Senator Benjamin’s law offiss. I’m goin up North to steal sum spoons and things for Southern Army.” This was satisfactory, and the intossicated troopers went ors. next statioD, the pretty little Seseshec awoke and sed she must git out there. I bid her a kind adoo and giv her sum pensions. and vIU Uuuk. s it gingerbred,” I sed. She thaukt me muchly and tript galy away. There’s considerable human nater in a man, and I’m fraid I shall allers giv aid comfort to the enemy if he comes to me in the shape of a nice youug sal. 5 al. At the next station I didn’t get ors 80 easy. I was dragged out of the cars in the mud for several minits fur tiie purpose of ‘‘takin’ the couseet out of me,” as a Secesher kindly stated. 1 was let up finally, when a powerful large Seeesher came up and embraced me, and to show that he bad no hard feelius agin men, put Lis no.-e into my mouth. 1 re turned the compliment by placing my stum niick suddenly agin his right foot, when he kindly made a spittoon of liis able bodied face. Actooated by a desire to whether the ‘eoesHer had been voxinated, I then fastened my teeth onto liis left coat-sleeve and tore it to the shoulder. We then viieutly bunted our heads together for a few minits, danced around a little, and sot down in n mud pud dle. Woriz to our feet agin & bv sudden & adroit movement I placed my left eye agin the Secesher’s fist. We then rushed into each Ollier’s arms and fell under a too boss wagon. I was very much exhausted and didn’t care about getlin up agiu, but the man said he reckoned I'd better, and I con clooded I would, He pulled me up, but I hadn’t bin on mv feet more’n two seconds afore the ground flew up and hit me in the hed. The crowd said it was high old sport, but I eoiild’nt zukly see where the lafture come in. T riz and we embraced agin.— We careered madly to a steep bank, when I got the upper hand of my antagernist and threw him into the raveen. He fell about forty feet, striking a grindstone pretty hard. I understand he was injured. I haven’t heard Ironi the grindstone. A man in a coct hat e U m up and sed he felt as tho a apology was doo me. There was a mistake. The crowd had taken me for another man ! I told him not to men tion it, axed him if his wife and little ones was so’s to he about aud got on bord the train, which had .stopped at that station “20 minits for refreshments.” I got all I want id. ft was the heartiest meal I ever et. I was ri*l on a rale the next day, a hunch of blazin fire crackers being tied to my coat tales. It was a fine spoetycal in a dramatic pint of view, but I didn’t enjoy it. 1 hud other adventures ol a startlin kind, but why continuer? Why lasserate the Public Boo zum with these here things? Saffyeit to say I got across Mason and Dixie’s line safe at last. I made tracks for my humsted, but she with whom I’m harnist for life failed to re cognize, in bein’ who stood before her, the gusWn youth of forty-six summers, who had left her only a few months afore.

Determined to Crush the Ho uth. —A former member of the United St qtes Con gress from a Southern State Jy had an interview with W. H. Seward, ij i which he endeavored to disabuse his mind* of the error common at. tho North that tin •••p is still a I strong Union party in the seeedf and State?. — Mr. Seward replied that he wa ; well aware of the fact that there no longe’ .■ existed any such party, but that he was determined to test the question whether tb<* United States Government could be overtta* >wn or not. The same member of Coo gress also saw Mr. Lincoln, and repeated m him substanti ally the same statement of. Southern unity he had made to Mr. Sewar J, to which Mr. Lincoln replied that he tor 3 well aware the South is now UDit, but tk’ k t the North had the power to crush it, and was deteradiiad to it— Dim A Christian Temper iu War. “ I shall never think any mau better than myself, whilst I have my sword in my hand” —was the reply of Kumenes, when Antigo nus besieged aud affected superiority ovei him. I? not this the true military sentiment —the sentiment which makes the patriot soldier, the hero of a triumphant, the ntar tyros a fallen cause ! Wheu war impends *r exists, it behooves the hostile parties to respect in each other this spirit of self-re- To outrage it by sneers aud taunts, and by vain-glorious boasts and haughty threats*, is to inflame needlessly the passions that prompt, and to aggregate wantonly the hnrr ws that attend hostilities. How sternlv Christian principle forbids such a course, must be obvious to the most careless thinker And we put it to the followers of Jesus in both the United and Confederate States, whether there be not a fault among them as regards this matter? Have they in nothing urned aside from the noble custom of the Persians, “To speak of their mortal ene mies, with whom they were at deadly war, as honorable and as justly as their virtues deserved J” Surely, we can stand firmly by the dictates of our own consciences, and fight and die for them, if need be, not revil ing our enemies, but mingling with the pur poses of the brave heart and the perform ances of the strong band, pity for their errors prayer for their salvation. Such a spirit is not impossible of culture, unless, indeed, war, even when defensive, be only and ut terly an iniquity. Aud with this spirit wo would have the Christians of the South back the wave of iuvasion which menaces her border. We are aware that, these counsels are little likely to be heard while the clang of arms rings through the country. At such a time the current of even a righteous indignation tends to sweep over all the dykes and har riers of moderation and justice. But this only renders it trebly imperative to lift up the voice of warning. No actors in the stir ring scenes of the day are sowing the seeds; of a keener regret or a more harrowing re-j morse, than awaits those who sock to irritate the pride and inflame the animosity of the two sections —the two nations we should say ■ —until war shall become inevitable, in its most unrelenting and sanguinary terms.— Peace is the true interest of both North and South, whether they are to stand to each other in the attitude of nations or of sec tions, —their true policy for the wise decis ion of the question in which of the attitudes they shall stand to each other for the time to come. Never was there a contest to which the (reputed) language of the Duke of Wellington after his victory at Waterloo so forcibly applies—“ Believe me, that ex cept a battle lost, nothing can be more mel ancholy than a battle wou.” Let Christians carry this conviction with them into the im-j pending conflict, and accept war, if they! must, only as a necessity forced upon the’ South—not for the overthrow of govern- j ment, as her enemies allege—but. for the vindication of her right to govern herself, j It will abate nothing of vigor in the pwpa-j ration for war, and nothing of valor in the | piosecution of war. It will bring into both’ the spirit of Christ, and cause the hand of Christ to fight for us in both. With it, we may hearten each other in the words of Ne-j beiiiiah: “Be not afraid of them; re mem-’ her the Lord which is great and terrible, and fight for your brethren, your sous, and your daughters, your wives, aud yourj houses.” —Religious Herald.

This doctrine rests solely upon the resrpi nxi. hih'ty of our rulers to the people of the sev eral States for the honest and faithful admin istration of the laws under the constitution. On the 6th day of November last, this fun damental principle was disregarded by the voters of the North, and rulers chosen who were in no wise responsible to the people of the fifteen Southern States. It mattered not how faithlessly they might have acted, their conduct eould only have been ques tioned , and they themselves driven from power, (not by us,) but by the party whose minions they were. Had we submitted to their will, we should have been unworthy the noble race of men from whom we sprung, and tit subjects for Black Republicans to govern. But I thauk God that eleven States have declared in favor of self-government, and will maintain it now, as it was main tained in ’76 by the blood and treasure of a brave and gallant people. Our fathers declared that, governments derived their “just powers from the con sent of the governed.” We have ro-assert ed that doctrine, and for this. Northern Fa naticism and Northern Commerce strike hands, and to-day are marshaling their ar mies against us, the one to enforce upon 119 its surplus of conscience, the other to rob us, as it has done for half a century, of the fruits of our labor. They have invaded our soil, and intend to leave nothing .in their track but blood and desolation, until we ac j knowledge their dominion over u=. Nortli | ern jail? and State prisons furnish much of ; the vile material which is now'concentrating ! its mighty hordes upon us. Over one hun dred thousand of our young rnen have gone | forth to battle, to preserve our men from ■ these robbers and assassins, and our women from tle arms of these destroyers. To ask doubtiogly of the men of this District, whether, in such a tear, our sons ami broth ers are to be maintained, would be offering an insult both to their nature and to tbeir patriotism. Let. us all, therefore, come up to tbe support of our gallant army by loan ing the (Government all that we can spare of our growing crops, for which we will re ceive bonds bearing interest at 8 per cent, per annum, payable semi-annually. By such a course we can sustain our brave troops, not only for the present, but,if need be, for the next twenty years, without in i convenience. Very respectfully, Martin J.

General Scott is about, to remodel tbe L ni i ted States army upon the French system, says a northern exchange, so as to give it more efficiency and perfection. The 0 hero works with astonishing zeal, an ‘ * IS mind opeiates as actively os man\ a man y five. It is undoubted that be contemplates . long campaign, that Washington is to be the bL of operations, that a large force will be kept permanently stationed here, ami that all demonstrations in support of loyal men in the South, and in the furtherance of the determination to retake stolen public property will move from this point. Some complaints are made because an expedition has not already been sent into A irgima for the purpose of capturing Richmondbut 1 , am disposed to repose my trust entirely upon the experience and patriotism of Scott.
