DEAR LYNX: 1t has been q long time
since | had the pleasure of addressing
you through the medium Of your col.
umns. As they generally have been
well crowded by contributions Of cor
respondents more interesting than my
self, thought it unnecessary to trou-
bic you, or your readers: but one has
lately appeared IN them under the so
br.quet of a star that wears rather a
threatening aspect to our village. | dc
not admire his taste in shining he way
he has chosen to do for many reasons.
First, because his assertions are some
what incorrect, and lead US TO conclu-
sions which arc unsupported BY the.actu-
al. state Of affairs; apd secondly, even If
they were correct, still it exhibits an
uncitizen feeling thus to anatomize our
" body corporaie,' and discourse so e.
oquendy 10 the crowded auditors Of the
leclure-room ofthe world on the imPer-
fections and corruptions Of our organj-
cation. What was his design? Was
it to effect any good at home or abroad
by thus raking us? If he had been de.
sirous Of improving US morally and
scientifically he might have it done
much more effectively than by gloating
over our deformities. Changes and
improvements in human nature are sell
dom made vi ct arms. The Battle
axe Of satire, or SANDER however pow
erfully welded has seldom oocasionel
reformation in individuals or common
woalths; human nature becomes mad
dened by violence. 1t is necessary to
be persuaded, wooed and won. Instead
Of advancing our progress, he retards
il by pointing out our degraded condi-
diton, if it's such, to the world. Those
who may have wished to cast their lot
among US, and elevate, by their exam
pie, society to his standard will be pre-
vented by doing so by his misant hropic
description Of men and society among
us. When Noah the chief survivor OF
the flood, lay uncovered within his tent,
drunken with wine, - Shem and Japh-
eth, his sons took garment and went
backward, and covered the nakedness
Of their father" The text is from
Scripture, and as your correspondent
from the pen he yields, has brains and
sense, | hope his commentaries thereon
will be in the spirit of those who per
formed the act.
But we are a religious, moral, anC
virtuous people, as much so, at least, as
any which can be found within the same
cooperate limits = in thisor any other
state. Our society is similar to the so.

The Masonic celebration on the 4th
went of'in blaze-The large Court
room was crowded with eager perons
to see the display, among whom, and,
constituting by far the fairest portion
Of the assembiage, were many ladies,
looking as sweet as--0s-we don't know
what.
After the installation Of officers, the
Grafton was pronounced by by F. A. Ty-
Ter. We did not lose a word of it and
take it all in all, we have seldom
heard it surpassed. For solid argument,
and beauty ofifnagory, it was altogether
superior production. The dinner, we
learn, was excellent.

Nor smile 50 sweelly gay,
For love shall live when Time IS O'el
And these must pass away!
DO not love thee for thy wealth,
Since thousands boast The same,
And so cnrrassinr is nav heart
I'd have what none can claim.

Thou art buried in light;

The hero OF the last war has been
gathered to his fathers. We shall new
or more see his proud form towering
in the ranks Of death, waving aioft his
sword, and anon charging inso the dun
cloud Of battIe-nor shall we hear ag-
ain that loved voice, rising above the
storm Of contending armies, when the
thunder Of battle jared the solid ground,
sounding like q HEAVIER. blown trumpet,
inspiring his hosts with invincibie ar
dour. Not is stillcd in death for
ever! The voice that commanded ar.
mics in the field Of blood, and pro-
claimed peace TO an invaded land
spent It's last tones ia admonitions tc
his weeping friends to make their
peace with the Most High, and meet
him in another realm, where war is
known no more, where universal peace
reigns endless.
"Let us weep in Our darkness,
But weep not for him
Not for him who departing
Leaves millions in tears
Not for him who has died,
Full of honors and years.

are all that he has left his weeping
countrymen-and they are ours forev-
er-and we will cherish them in the
Utmost core OF our hearts as long as
Liberty is loved and Indopende nee is

star has hung upon the lowest verge
Of our horizon, ready ito dip in the

was gazed upon by millions, with swim
ing eyes and bursting hearts-it was a
bright star-a star of the first magni-
tude-one that had kept a constant Wig
il over mankind. And even when it
was sinking down in the waters Of G.
ternity, it seemed even more bright
than when in the zenith. And while
men were gazing upon it, expecting
its radiance 10 dim as it gradually dis
suddenly it seemed TO have
caught additional lustre, and like the
flash of dosolving meteor, shot from
our armament forever. Darkness has
come upon the land--our eagle has
flown, and the broad sweep Of his
wing has Gut!ered in at the gate of
paradise, to receive his immortal guer-
don.

er was continually before him. and the week
seaucd du.l in which he did not ride over to
the parsonage at least twice. Annabel began
to wonder at the frequency of these visits. but
as she knew nothing of the attractions of the
good rector's household, she remained in happy
ignorance of the threatened destruction of her
plans.
If the rector saw the growing interest of Os-
mond in his protege, lie at least said nothing,
but suffered matters to take their course The
young man, let him come as often as he pleased,
was always welcome, and, after Il while, the
minister did not hesitate to leave his house
keeper to entertain his guest, if duty required
his own attention elsewhere. These tete-a-
tetes became, finally, the most precious portion
of Osmond's visits; and he even began TO feel
disappointed when his venerable friend was
able to remain at home, preierring much rather
the sweet society of Ellen Elmer Yet he was
not i'll love- at least he was not aware of being
so. He was only conscious of having more
than once Contrasted Annabel with the good
rector's protege, and the result was always in
favor the latter.

Anderson has been emincntly successful, and is

In my former communication alusion was
made to the "American Theatre" which con-

he never received such and such sums, that
they were ''begot Of nothing but vain phanta-

tainly eXclaila, "there's no such thing" The
affair has caused wonder, owing to its rarity,

There is no substantial reason why that article
which will merely command % cents in New
York, should here cost precisely four times the
