BY FLP.ITIS.
O, shall death disclose the real,
Which in life is love's ideal ?
Then to me were death a weal
Far more welcome than sad life.
Shall those pictured dreams of wooing
Cheer me when my life's undoing J
When my soul is fast pursuing
Knd to ull this mortal stifc?
Sviall fhoso frenxied d:e;.ms of pleasure
I'rovc prophetic of a treasure;
Which awaits the lust sad measure
I shall tread upon life's stage?
Thrice welcome then the hour of going:
There's music in the Screech-Owl's crowing,
Wlu u the cup of grief is i.vei flowing.
And the Sjiirit longs to leave its cage.
I.iM as the heart of a bird set free,
Slinking its jnvous jubilee.
Spirit ! thnu'lt through the ether flee
Away to thy home o'er the silver cloud.
Long and softly I'll lay-sleeping,
When the ivy's o'er me creeping.
And my vault ulone is weeping
Weeping oil my inould'ring shroud.
Ciias. G. Iirino ox Emancipation. The
opinions of lawyers of so much ability and enii
Hence as Mr. Loring, upon emancipation will
attract much attention. He says :
I have already stated some of tho reaj-ons why
the obligation of self preservation, of religion,
if law and of humanity, call upon us to resist,
at every cost of life and treasure, and at all haz
ards the establishment of any slave empire
carved out of this republic. There are, at pres
nt, comparatively very few mining us who, from
regard either to the w hites or the blacks, would
recklessly attemp' sudden and immediate) aboli
tion, if it can be avoided ; while the great mass
if people are resolutely determined, if possible
to sustain the I'nioii, with tho Constitution as it
is, believing that the natural laws of God's gov
ernment, will eventually, and at no distant day,
solve tho great problem in the manner hist sug
gested, with the least possible injury to all exist
ing rights and interests.
But if this solution shall lie found to bo im
practicable ; if the South shall with pertinacious
recklessness continue its desperate struggle, or
shall be aided in continuing it with better hope
of success by foreign intervention, so that the
alternative must be either the destruction of the
Union or the immediate extermination of slavery,
then we have no doubt either of our interest or
of our right under tho law of self f reservation,
of our duty to God and to man, to cxtcrpale the
curse ot once by all means in our power. e
shall not falter nor hesitate in this fearful task,
hut go straight on, Iea ing the const que: ces in
the hands of Him who "causelh the wrath of man
to praise him," and upon the heads of those who
have thus brought upon themselves an awful
retribution for a degree of w ickedness and folly
tieyond all former example.

That peculiar class of individuals who persist
in calling themselves "Democrats" fitter having
disgracefully bolted (he last National Convention
of the Democratic party, and then were regularly
"read out" of tho organization by a decisive vote
of that party before it ceased to exist, ore an
amusing set of fellows. According to them.
there has been a reaction in favor of their "wing"
impending ever since the election of '00, against
the Government and tho war, and to the behoof
of the Jeff Davis' experiment. They seem to
have totally forgotten that "the glorious old pat
ty" headed by General Breckinridge, C. S. A .
received in the loyal States but a niero handful
of votes, mid of those who did blunder into the
support of that slave trade ticket, the better part
are now strenuously supporting the Government
in ull of itj war measures. As illustrative of
tho vote given to this w ing, in some of the States,
which they now audaciously claim as having
gone in recent elections for their very peculiar
views, we mention the fact, that in Illinois Gen.
Breckinridge received 2.404 votes, in Indiana
12,295, Iowa 1,043." This was certainly not as1
goott a run as "t ne war cinia ot Kentucky lias
made quite frequently sineo elsewhere, but it
will do, in some sort, to show the fallaciousness
of tho continued assertions of thes.i blowhards
and swaggerers, that the whole country is com
ing round to fhe support of the Breckinridge
platform. They have a very happy f.tculty for
milking up in bluster and bravado what they lack
in more enviable qualities. Each particular one"
makes tin times the fuss about the strength of
his party, and the solvency of something that he
terms his "principles" that any one belonging to
I'nion organization does, and in this way he aids
to give to his party an appearance of possessing
about ten times the strength that it re.ttly has.
A stranger passing through the State during the
last gubernatorial campaign would have conclu
ded, if careless in his observations, that McCon
nel was sure to be elected. So much din did
those who supported that gentleman raise every
where in theSta'e. The strangest fiat, however,
performed by these incorruptible custodians of
the Constitution, was when they bellowed and
brayed in self g-alu!ntiou over the results t f the
ejections in s ane of the Eastern Stales, wl i :h
fiom various causes, not at all affecting the loyal
ty of tile u asses, had east nnti -Administration
majorities. A I unmindful of the fact lh.;t the
Administration had, taking nil these elections
tog t h -r, a majority of over sixty thousand in
its favor, without couiitit g the six or seven bun
ird t hoits: nd good Administration men, with
good muskets hi ihrir hands, then absent on ihe
battle field, they queerly claim that the Govern
mi lit and its war policy have beeo rebuked, and
ipieer yet, they claim that their kind of Demoe
ru v did it ! Is is true that the two thousand
Breckinridge votes of Illinois have swallowed up
the one hundred and sixty thousand received in
iuil State bv Judge Dotig'as 1 C'ii it be a fact I
that, the 888 who supported Brei-kniiiridgo in!
Wisconsin have absorbed, tnid do now control
the sixty five thousand who voted for the regu
lar Den ocratic nominee t Is it probable that
in two years time they have . forgotten nil the
little pleasantries that pa-sed between ilia "two
wings" in the memorable campaign of ISliO, when
the bolters called Douglas and all of his suppor
ters "Abolitionists" and other genteel epithets
which bubble easily from secession throats? Do '
they recall some slight reviews of themselves and
of their purposes, made by that gentleman dur
i.g that canvass ?
We are continually regaled, from this source
by predictions that the "glorious old party" is
going to rise up in this State in the coming elec
tions and carry everything by storm. It would
tiflord much consolation, if those who assert this
would offer soma proof of it. Assertions do
very well in their way, but tho instance of one
solitary man who laRt year voted the Union
ticket, and this year proposes to be 'reconstruc
ted" would go much further. Will some one
find that man, and mention it ? Marysville Ap

Thec propositions to a thorough-going, ono

culty is, that people w ho are so unhappy as to
differ from him in opinion cannot regirJ them,
selves in that light. The coiiseouence is that the

him in the same riJiculous inanncr that is in (
vogue aniot-g tho Sew I.'ghts of llio present
generation. Soon, however, ho found it best to
change his tactics.
His remarks on tins subject ate so much to
the point, that we will take the liberty ol making
a short extract from them
"1 continued this (disputatious) method some
tew yeRrs, but gradually left it, retaining only
the habit of expressing myself in terms of modest
diffidence ; never using, when I advanced anything
i that might possibly be disputed, the word certain
ly, undnubtedlij, or any other that gave the air of
positivetiess to an opinion ; but rather said,
conceive or uppre lie ml a thing to be so and s-vi it
appear to Die, or 1 should not think it is sr for
such and such reasons ; or J imagine it to be no ;
or i( is so, if I an not mmtaAen. lhis habit
believe, has been of great advantage to mo when
I have had occasion to inculcate my opinions, and
pursuade men into measures that I have been
from time to time engaged in promoting ; nud, as
tho chief ends ot conversation are to inform or
to be informed, to please or to persuade, I w ish
well meaning and sensible men would not lessen
their power of doing good by a positive, assum
ing manner, that seldom fails to disgust, tends to
create opposition, and to defeat most of those
purposes fir which speech was given to us.
In fact, if you wish to instruct others, a posi.
tivc, dogmatical manner in advancing your senti
ments may occasion opposition and prevent a
candid attention. If you desire improvement
from other?, on should not, at the samu time
express yvursclf fixed tit your present opinions;
modest and sensible men who do not love dmpu
tations, will leave you undisturbed in the pos
session of your errors. In adopting such a
manner, you can seldom expect to please your
hearers, or obtain the concurrence you desire.
Pope judiciously observes,
'Men must be taught ns if you taught them not.
And things unknown proposed as tilings forgut.'
II.- also recommends it to us,
'To speak, though sure, with seeming dillidence.'
And ho might have joined with this lino that
w hich he has coupled w ith another, I think, less
properly :
'For want of modesty is want of sense.'
If you nsk why less properly, I must repeat the
lines,
- 'Immodest words admit of no defence,
For want of modesty is want of sense.
Now is not the want of tenae (where a man is so
unfortunate as to want it) some sinology for his
toant nf modesty and would not the lines stand
more justly thus i
'Immodest words adpul but this defence
That want of modest r is want of sense.' "
"Smart Men" at tub Bav. That information
not in possession of the business men of 'Erisco
is not to be obtained at the most extensive insti
tutto:,s of learning. hat theij don t know, it
is no sort of use in trying to learn. There is
scarcely nny difference. Each is "slurp as light

The Bulletin of a recent dale mentions tho fol
low ing instances :
Ckeenhack Lessons. Case 1st A San
Francisco lawyer had earned a fee of $250 from
one of his clients, and in due time sent in his bill
for collection. To his utter astonishment his
collector returned with $250 in greenbacks. He
indignantly ordered the collector to "lake that
trash back to II , and tell him that 1 make
him a present of it."
The collector obeyed orders, and speedily re
turned to his principal, when tho following col
lorriy occurred :
Lawyer Did you present my compliments
and the greenbacks to II 1
Collector 1 did, sir.
Lawyer What did II say 1
Collector He put the greenbacks in his pock
et and said he was much obliged to you for the
present !
Case 21 A banker loaned $30,000, secured
by mortgage to a real estate owner, before any
such annoyances as payment in greenbacks had
been thought of. W'hen the mortgage was about
maturing the mortgagee informed tho banker
lhat he might expect payment in legal tenders.
The banker, in a gruff manner, responded : "I
expected no better treatment from you. Do
your meanest, but grant me one little favor.
Don't bring any of your legal tender rags into
this office ; I'll not put you to the trouble of em
ploying a broker. Just you bring me the amount
of gold that you will havo to pay for $30,000 in
greenbacks, and I'll give you up your note and
mortgage and good riddance to you."
So reasonable a request as this could not be
objected to, and so the shame laced mortgagee in
duo time presented the required amount of gold.
The banker handed over the note and mortgage,
received the gold and deposited it in his safe, and
bade his late debtor good morning. The latter
hesitated a little about going, and said something
about having the mortgage released of record.
"Oh. yes." said the banker, "we will have to
i . ..
employ a lawyer tor III at. lie men named ins
own lawyer, and the two proceeded to his office,
when the banker made known his business some
thing after the following manner: "S itiire, there
is a balance of several thousand dollars due me
on a mortgage which you will hud recorded
with the county records, and you will oblige me
bv commencing a foreclosure suit at once
It diil not take the'vanquihed mortgagee much
time to understand his position, but the only
remedy for hirn was to pay the balance duo on
tho rnoitgage in greenbacks. He never men
tioncd the circumstance afterwards.

A Voics from North Carolina Plain
Talk. The Raleigh Standard, in speaking of
the rebel authorities at IticJmotid, holds tho fol
lowing language :
They labored to break down the old Govern
ment because they were about to lose the
"beef" slavery and they would wreck tho new
one before they would part with tho carcass
upon which Vultur.is are settled. Their motto
was "divide and destroy," and their motto now
is "consolidated rule or ruin." House they are
the destruct ives, and those who oppose them are
the conservatives. We still walk the soil and
breathe the air of freedom, and aro not to be
ind'teticed hi our course by tho blandishments
or the frowns of power.

But I think my friend stands down in the fog
lhat settles over the low lauds. From the hilt-

political, religious and military condition, the

merit in llio world most Iineral to the poor
and industrious vv Into man, ll not the black man,
or white woman, lho rebels aro encompassed
by sea and by laud, by a sulliicieut force to
crush out all the resistance they can make, so
soon as the lutes can bo drawn into a centre, and
it mutters nine wncre tnai centre is, whether
Uichmond, or Charleston, or Montgomery, or
Chattenooga. The rebels know all this, and
betray their knowledge ; but they have a hope
of our division and distraction, or that we will
get out of patience, and call our forces homo,
and nbandon for compromise, a certainty of mil
itary success for, ut compromise, they have
ever beaten us, usually by first vexing, provok
ing, and then wearying our patience.
Many ol our citizens overlook our progress
get discouraged because we have not done all
thoy hoped, aiul because wo have had some dis
asters, such as all important wars havo thrown
on both sides. We h.'ive taken back tho two
Navy Yards they took from us before we could
defend them, and destroyed their navy all but
lew straggling pirates which roam tho ocean
without a port they etui enter within the country
that pretends to protect them. We havo taken
their two greatest commercial cities New Or-
cans nnd Norfolk : they have not even a hone
of re taking them except by compromise. We
have conquered and partially restored nearly
one halt the territory over which they spread
jurisdiction. Wo have destroyed, by their own
accounts, over one hundred thousand of their
army; destroyed their credit and currency, ex
cept w hen they force its circulation by a military
poVer. We have more than twenty times their
naval force, and over ten time their pecuniary
ability, and more than twice the number of sold
iers enlisted than they can raise by conscription.
and yet we could raise another army as largo as
tho ono we have, by volunteers, if a foreign foe
liould interlere or a necessity which the people
could feci should require, it. They are short for
food ; we have a surplus, and sending it in do
nations to lho suffering poor of England, which
has the peace but not the plenty.
Who cannot see that we are approaching peace,
and that the war-eagle shall soon return auJ

Th" worst of ail, thus far, has been the loss

necessity or military expediency ; but even thi

One feature is fast growing into importance,
viz., Negro regiments to guard and protect the
southern coast nnd cities; and they will he need

most loyal of any in the South, will have to
guard the country for the future, as they are
doing in New Orleans.

proceed with any more iron frigates, as recent
experiments, more especially with (lit headed

Auven'turs or a Scoundrku The following
account is given of a Northern deserter in an
Eastern newspaper :
A fellow arrived ut St. John, N. JJ., lately, in
a vessel on which ho had sought passage from
Boston, claimiining to be a- brtuwhr subject.
When tho vessel had proceeded soul distance
to sea, he revealed himself as a deserter from
the Federal army. Ha said that be first enlist
ed in Portland (where his family resides), and
received his bounty ; ho suecoededjin having hi
name placed on the hospital list, and afterward
escaped to Boston, where be again enlisted, ro
ceiving a bounty of $2'.)5, and vanished. He
immediately hired on board an English steamer
and made a trip to England and rvturtiH, .when
ho left tho vessel ami tried his fortune at an
other enlistment, received another bounty, and
made his exit by the vessul bound to St, John.
The craft was obliged to enter Portland, when
ho left her to visit his wife and children, but re
turned prior to her departure, and arrived with
tho vessel at St. John. He said that his family
had and were receiving threo dollar per week
fro n the States during his absence, and in caso
of tho suspension of this f provision, ho should
send for them to come and reside in his now
found home. The crew were so interested it)
his exploits that upon entering British waters ho
was lathered and shaved with an iron hoop, all
of which ho bore with admirable tang fruid and
seemed not ill pleased with tho ceremonies which
welcomed his transition from the country ho
had so basely deserted and robbed.
Tub Amiaui.e Kkiiki.s. An instanoo of the
noblo chivalry ol Southerners may bo found in
the following :
A New Origins correspondent says "a most
remarkable affair occured recently in tho former
headquarters of Major General Butler. Capt.
J. C. MeClure, of General Banks' staff, who
had occasion to enter the office, found a rose ly
ing upon one of tho desks, and taking it up to
smell its fragrance, he no soonor applied the
rose to his noso than he fainted. It is supposed
tho rose contained a poisonous powder, which
caused tho insensibility. Tho (lower has been
secured and will bo analyzed by a skillful chem
ist. General Kosecrans. There has been some
littlo speculation flouting about through tho
uowspnpcrs in relation to tho place of birth of the
hero of Murfreesboio. "Buckeye," a correspon
dent of tho Sacramento Bee, of tho 12th inst.,.
thus speaks of the matter :
Permit me through your paper to say that
General l'oserrans-the fighting General of tho
West-is aged forty-tnreo years and was born in
Delaware county, Ohio, at a place called Kings
ton Corners. His father's name is Grandle.
Ho is not a Dutchman, neither is he a Catholic.
His father and grandfathers, for generations)
were Pennsylvania Dutchmen, and lived in
Wyoming Valley, since tho massacre of Indians
memorable in history. Theso facts are reliable,
as I am a relative of the General, and was born
and lived for years within a mile of his father'
residence. Ihe true orthoirranhv ol his name is
Uosecriius-uot Uosekrntis.
