IMPRESSIVE SCENE AT THE SEVENTH REe1
MENr ARAoRY.-The Seventh Regiment of New
York turned out 900 guns at the parade of the
Division on the 22d, After the return of the
corps 10 its armory thrilling and impressive
scene occurred, which is thus reported in the
world -" The Regiment ascended to the spa
clouS drill.room in the upper story of the
building, and at the command of the Colonel
the several companies formed in order with
ranks extending the entire width of the room
Col. Leferts having commanded silence, as
cended with his staff to the gallery extending
across the Eighth street end of the building
and made brief and spirited address to his
command. He proposed that the Birthday Of
washington should hereafter be regularly eel
eorated by the Regiment as its anniversary,
ana spoke wlth patriotic enthusiasm of the
character Of that illustrious sage and patriot
On putting the question to the men, whether
they approved of his proposition, laundering
aye reverberated through the hall The order
being gwen for the men to uncover, every hat
came of, and the soldiers, still in their ranks,
stood In reverential silence while the Chaplain
uttered a solemn prayer for the land of Wash
ington, that it might be spared from the evils
which threatened it, and that the Almighty
would put forth His arm once again, as of old
to rescue from destruction. After the prayer
the band struck up the Star Spangled Banner,
the beautiful standard of the Regiment was
carried up to the gallery and waved in unison
with the strains, and scene of the widest en-
thuslasm ensued. The young men of the regi-
ment, the elite of our citizen soldiery, broke
forth with the most tumultuous cheers, forest
OF bayonets was lifted in the air, and a hundred
cleaning swords leaped from their scabbards
and were waved aloft as if invoking the bles-
Eing OF Heaven upon the flag of our country
1t was several minutes before order was re-
stored, but the serried ranks at last resumed
their statue like repose, and the companies
were dismissed to their respective armories 1t
is doubtful whether such display of martial
enthusiasm was ever witnessed in this country,
and the whole scene was calculated to remind
one OF the wild bursts of enthusiastic devotion
with which the Old Guard of Napoleon were
wont to hail the appearance of their beloved
Emperor"

She leaned heavily on her sisters shoulder.
"Yet you loved her once, even as you love
me now. You are tickle, said the sweet voice
Of the singer.
Faithful rather, Isabella; that was but the
passion of a boy-this-this-believ me, is
the love Of a mana love that will never die. 1"
They passed on, and talking in the low tone
lovers use. Katy's head dropped lower, and
Augusta, bending down to look at her, found
the was almost fainting

wringing her hands. "He must not find us

"At home," said Katy, sadly, ooh, if had
never left my mountain home, if had never
seen my fairy godmother-how happy might
have been. Fool that / was, to leave those
who were so kind to me; can never find such
faithful hearts again"
=" That remains to be told" said sharp
voice; and looking around, they saw an odd
looking figure, dressed in green silk, with a
wand of ivory in her hand. Augusta stared,
Katy rushed forward eagerly.
GO, godmother, you hero ?"

near the stage of theater, pray? And so you
are not happy, after all ?"

her wand three times, while the poor young
wife knelt at her feet, sobbing as If her heart
would break.
"Why, Katy, love, what is the matter :?
Wake up, my darling" said kind voice in her
ear; and opening her eyes, she saw the young
schoolmaster bending over her, with beauti-
full bouquet in his hand. She sprang up and
looked aronnd. That was the door of the farm
house; that was the ringing of the mowers
scythes she heard in the valley below husband
sister, and fairy godmother had vanished to-
gether, to say nothing of Isabella, and she was
happy mountain maid once more

George Bathurst, as he wiped away the tears

How cheerfully she set about it now. But be-

on tlptoe on the stone step, and kissed George
Bathurst-a thing she had never done of her

see her, only some gossiping insects in the tall
grass witnessed the salute, and took up the
story in their pertinent way for the benefit of

STRAWBERRY HILL, June 90, 1861

STRAWBERRY IT'LL, June ~, loOl
The call for volunteers under the State mi
litia law, was early responded to by the Cit
zens in the neighborhood of Strawberry Hill,
in Cedar township. They formed a company
which has been drilled for some time by Hen
ry S. Griffin. Having the requisite number
required by the militia law, they organized
June 10Th, and proceeded to elect their Off
GERS.
Samuel Littrel was called to act as Presi-
dent, and j. W. Farmer, Secretary. Henry
S. Griffin was unanimously elected captain :;
Augustus Riggs, first lieutenant; Samuel
Collins, second lieutenant. 1t was then de-
cided that the company should be known by
the name of the Iowa Rough and Rcadys.-
Their uniform will soon be completed, and it
is the intention of Captain Griffin to report
Immediately to Gov. kirkwood for acceptance.
Captain Gu, in served through the Mexican
war, and is eminently qualified to instruct his
men. To a clear, commanding voice he adds
a perfect knowledge of the rules and regula-
tons of war, and is a man who will command
respect anywhere. The officers of the com
pany throughout are men marked for decision
of character and energy of purpose. The
Iowa Rough and Readys will compare favora-
bly, with any company in the State. They
will be found ever ready to do their duty, and,
Judging from their appearance, will be rough
customers for secessionists to handle
