Pnr.orumn of the Itussinu War.
This exhibition will open to-night at
Concert Hall. The Baltimore Daily
Sun says: “This splendid and spirited
affair has become a sort of necessity
with our citizens. Everybody goes to
see it and everybody is profuse in its
praise. It is one of the most deserved
ly popular exhibitions we have ever
had in Baltimore. The lecturer, abound
ing with information, and delivered
with distinctness, though comparative
ly brief as a historiette, has yet convey
ed to thousands a better idea of the war
than they ever had before."

Young Men** Christian Association.
Mr. Editor:—l have been looking, j
and shall yet for a while look to the |
above Association, with hopes that it j
may accomplish to some extent, some
of the uses which its name and position
in the confidence of the community
would seem to indicate. But while
I am willing to acknowledge that
f i
“Prayer is tiic simplest form ol’speech
That human lips can try;
Prayer the sublimest strains tint reach
The Majesty on high,”
I believe there are other duties we
owe to God as his children, which we
can understand when we remember
that we are all the children of one com
mon Father.
In this city, if anywhere in this coun
try, is there room and requirement for j
Christian Associations. And in order;
to illustrate the language I am using, j
you will permit me to instance a case, j
and those who are now so replete with,
designs for the elevation of young men |
may draw their own influence, and!
make their own application.
Two years ago a young man-of educa ,
tion, accustomed to move iu good soci
ety and to associate with good company, i
was employed to come to this city in a :
business as respectable and requiring as;
much talent, energy and skill, as any !
other which could be named. He came
in contact w ith the Mtizensoi the place, i
made friends among them, was respect--;
ed for his deportment, and felt that al
though his antecedents might not be;
generally known, stiil his appearance, j
attention to business and all that goes!
to make up good citizenship would I
commend him to a place in soeie- j
ty where he could cultivate the social |
affections and the acquaintance of the;
fair and the virtuous. How his desires, j
and the requirements of his nature, in
common with all mankind, for assoeia-)
tion witli kindred spirits, be they good I
or evil, were requited, will he under
stood, when I say that ho has never, up|
to the present time, with a single excep-j
tion, been invited to the homes or fire
sides of his friends. His acquaintance
with the fathers and brothers did not in
troduce him to the sisters and daugh
ters. Call not this a solitary case.—
They can he conjured up by the hun
dreds.
Man is a social being ; lie requires se
rial relations ; and who cannot see that
if they are denied in the one direction
they will be sought iu the other. This
state of things may be the result of self
ish exclusiveness, or it maybe stupidity,
and in either ease, I commend the hints
thus given, to the consideration of the
Young Men’s Christian Association.

A number of citizens of Philadelphia
have petitioned the Legislature to puss a j
law prohibiting free negroes from com
ing into that State. They say that the.
are subjected to trouble, inconvenience
and expense by such influx, including
old negroes, set free by tlieir masters,
fugitive slaves and other worthies*
darkies, most of whom become a public
charge or a prey upon individual chari
ty’
As Incident or the Revival.— ln Mr.
Beecher's church, lirooklyrreat the close
of the morning service a collection was
taken for the benefit of the poor in the
congregation. Among tiro audience
was Mrs. Fremont, ("Our Jessie”) who,
happening to have no money in her
pocket, as the plate was passed, took
from her finger a heavy gold ling and
threw it in as the cnly contribution she
was able at the time to make.
Fun should be cultivated as a fine art
for it is altogether a fine thing. Who
ever knew a "funny man” to be a bad
one. On the contrary is not he nine
times in ten, generous, humane, social
and good? To be sure he is. Fun—it
is a great thing. It smooths the rough
places of life, makes the disposition as
sweet and rosy as a fresh maiden’s kiss,
scatters sunshine and flowers where vei
we go, gives the world a round jolly
countenance, makes all the girls as
pretty as June roses, and mankind oil ’
of the best familes out. We go in for
fun. The man who won’t cultivate
it must keep a good sized half rod be
tween us.

Mr. T. S. Piggot, proprietor of the
Carolina Times, announced the Buspen
*fon of that paper for awhile,
Pa.-son Brownlow, of the Knoxville
Whig says that "if he is denied the
privilege of going to Heaven after death,
his second choice is Baltimore.

From the Knoxville Register.
TO MY MOTHER,
BY CAKRIK.
Thou art growing old, ilear mother.
Thy bloom ol youth has lied— „
And the frosts of man > winters
Has fell noon thy h ad.
lint thy book of life has pages
That will forever glow,
With the brilliant huo of happiness
Traced in “the long ago,’’
And there are closely written page 3
Os many a weary night,
When the tide of affliction met thee
And cast aside the light.
When the hand of death had severed
Affection*B golden chain,
And the links of earth cuuld never
Be bound together ag in.
You have had your sky encircled
With ninny a e oud of gloom,
While the dowers of friendship never
Imparted their perfume.
And the leaves of coldness fluttered
Across the path you tr>d S
But mother, they were put aside
By the loving hand of God.
For a time thy heart was gladdened,
The twilight of thy soul
Grew brgliter, faded, passed away,
A grief-worn, written scroll.
Years wont by—and the chastening rod
Had bowed thee down ogai
And bitter drops of sorrow fell
On all of us with pain.
On thy pure brow disease had lain
Her stern, relentless hand,
As if to grasp ami bear away
The jewel to another laud.*
But the angels bore a message,
That God to us had sent;
They whispered “peace,lookup and hope/’
And back to heaven they went.
then again was beautiful,
And found the “ old arm chair,”
Thy children came and knelt
To olfer up a prayer.
For thy feeble smile at evening,
Fit up our quiet room,
And stealing down within our hearts,
It cheered away our gloom.
Thou art growing old. dear mother,
But still within thiuw eyes
I love to gaze, for there I llnd
A light of splendor lies.
And as I stand beside tl ee here,
And stroke thy silken hair.
I look to heaven, and, 0! I hope
I'll meet thee, mother, there

REASONS why the Grover & Baker

sewing :
1. It i 3 more simple and easier kept in order
than any other Machine.
2d. It makes a seam which will not rip or
ravel, though every third stitch is cut.
3d. It sews from two ordinary spools, and thus
all trouble of winding thread is avoided, whlie
the same machine can he adapted at pleasure.
ly a mere change of spool, to all varieties of work.
4th. The same machine runs silk, linen thread,
and common spool cotton with equal facility.
nth. The seam isms elastic as the most elastic
fabric, so th A it is free from all liability
in washing, ironing, or otherwise.
Oth. The stitch made by this machine is mo> e

Among the many advantages these works have
over ull others, are the following :

PINE WOOD AND WATER.
i 2d. The durability of the works when com
pared with others.
[ 3d. Tbesimplicitv of the apparatus and process
Any negro may be taught to make the Gas
• perfectly in a very short time.
; Gas manufactured under this patent has been
in uninterrupted use at Kirkpatrick k Leitner’s
borne, at Berzolia, on the Georgia Railroad, since
i July last, where it may be seen. They have a
very superior light lor one fourth the price of
Gas made from Rosin Oil.
