BY CLARA AUGUSTA.

Ills well TO weep when troubles come,
And draw the darkened veil
OF sadness DER the couutenance,
When weary griefs assail.
Laughter is sweet, and joy is good,
But woe it's turn must take
It's ienfold bliss at Gods decree,
To suffer for his sake.
He hovers nearer when we groan
In anguish deep and Wild
He sheds halo Ger US then,
As If an angel smiled.
We know that meath his sheltering wing
For us there's ample room,
Where he can cast all care away,
And Danish from us gloom.
1t is but right TO weep with hope,
Bnt never with despair,
The love Of God Is over us
Aud round us everywhere
And he'll sustain the son of faith
Beneath his mighty arm,
Until his feet shall press the shore
Ofheaven's eternal calm.

Gen. SORTS brief and excellent Annual Report
on tie state Of the Army speaks justly Of the Sc
we're and continual e1ertion required Of the rank
and file Of cur little Army Though we profs,s to
be at peace with oil the world, there is no season
of re,t for those who contract to DO our Sighting
for some beggarly ten dollars per month. To-day
they are chasing Seminoles through the trsa :her-
Gus hogs Of Florida; next month, they are hunting
Cheyennes or Sioux on the great prailies Of the
upper Missouri and, before this hunt is fairly over,
they are summoned to take passage round the Horn
or across the Isthmus for service in California or
Washington, unless they happen to be wanted for q
Tow With the Apsches on the ella or crusade
sssinst the Mormons in Utah Though the actual
fighting per annum seems but trifing, the fatigue
of ipces,ast marches and the constrant of tedious
ocean voyages, On which they are packed like her
rings in box, but without herring precaution that
tie box be clean and sweet, renders the soldiers
life hard one, and impels incessant desertion BY
which tho service il sadly demoralized. You can
net guess what may be the strength Of certain
regiment from its muster roll of month ago, be.
cause il may have lost fifth or sixth Of it, men
meantime BY de,eItion. wiital, the expense Of
this vsgrant service is absolutely appalling. II
costs twice a. much per aunum for transportation
and incidental charges a. is the pay Of the t,ta
rank and file, and many regiment has cost $500
Der man before il il in position 70 begin to do the
work for which it was intended.
AL this il wsstsfal, unnecessary, absurd. There
is no moro need Of sending rank and fle to
Oregon or California than there 10 of sending car
zoe, of ice 10 the North Pole. For all the Military
service needed on tho Pacific Coast, men can be
obtained there for half the coat Of sending them
thither. So on the PlAins: . force might in any
week be orssniz.d in the frontier settlements for
,.r,ics .sssst any tribs OF hOssils Indians for
small part of the ee. Of sending regulars thithsr-
far more effective force than the clumsy saa igno-
rant subjects who are induced to en.'t in the line.
What 10 needed Of Gen. Scott and West Point is
just competent leadins-for al beyond this, any
State will supply men enough, and good men, when
ever they arc actually needed. Let Gen. Scott
chow bis white plume on the Western frontier and
ssy he wants q thousand or ten thousand volun.

1t is no part of our business to defend the con

do not ses the justice Of some Ct the assaults on
this score made upon him in certain Admnistrs-
ton prints. Bsoau,e Senator Douglas may have

State, because for TIE sake of helping on that OBJ
ject be- was willing for time to shut bis eyes to
tie rel On Of violence and u,urpaton OF which Kan

IN secret session Of the Senate yesterday, the
nomination Of Mr. S<dgwick a. United States Dis
ttict-Attornsy, in this city, in placs Of John
McKeop, was reported from the judiciary Con-
pittee without Recommendation. Senator Seward
made speech especially devoted to the hi,tOry aid
character Of Fernando Wood, aad the story 10
that The Senator told the truth about him. In
illustration Of Woods regard for regular nomins-

this took place not . long time aimee: Wood

The SENATE yesterday referred bills to secure to
actual settlers tho alternate sections of the public
land. reserved in the grants tothe States for railroad
purposes and TO grant every head of family who
is citizen of the United States homestead of
100 acres of land, on condition Of it's occupancy
and cultivation. On the Presidents Message, Mr..
FITCH took the floor. He did not desire to read
Mr.. Douglas out Of Che party, bat pointed Tim to
the fate of such had taken position outside Of the
pale, instsncing.Mr. Van Buren, as frghsfal e1-
ample Mr. f. was for admitting Kan,as with
whstever Constitution she might present. Mr..
DOUGLAS replied, showing Mr.. Fitch to be heter'
odoI on one point at least He (Mr D. had not
become the mere servile tool of any President. II
the President wanted Democratic harmony, let him
stand by the Cincinnati platform. Mr.. d. spoke
with confidence in the strength of bis osition, and
in a tone of defiance to those who denounced his
course. Mr. CLAY mixed in, but said nothing Of
Importance.
In the HOUSE the Treasury Note bill was dis.
cussed. Mr. Snow opposed the sending forth Of
an irredeem.blo paper currency; there being moth
ing in the Treasury 10 redeem tho issue, it would
but add TO the evils which now prevail He favored
lean which would bring forth the twenty millions
of coin now in secret recesses unemployed, and
waiting for safe investment, Mr.. SMITH Of Va
conaidered that the notes would not be of the char
acter Of bank paper; that the bill in effect only
proposed q loan. After a political tilt between
Mes.rs. Smith and Grove, Mr. NORRIS of Pa. con-
graduated the President on bis stand upon tho old
Wing National Bank platform. Mr.. CLANCY
JONES supported the bill Mr.. BANKS moved to
