A NICE PLACE TO LIvE.-TEe disputed
territory between the two armies south of
the Potomac must furnish anything but
quiet and peaceful places of residence.
What with picket skirmishing and the
depredatlons of marauding soldiers, to say
nothing Of the contingency of furious
battle, one would think that the region
would be completely deserted by all save
the contending armes. Yet it seems not
to be so. The army correspondent Of the
New York Post says that a Connecticut
gentleman who owns small estate near
Falls Church, went over a day or two since
to look at his tenants. tsrI }o
aT The family has remained in the dwell
ling through the whole troubles Of pick
ct diminishing, and scarce day has pass
ed for month that they have not wit
messed sanguinary scenes from their wins
dows. The building lay between the
pickets, neither party venturing to it.
On one occasion Federal soldier yentur-
ed down to the we'll for some water, and
was shot dead by rcbel bullet while
drinking. There the body remained for
day or two. The house itself has been
pierced with bullets, but none Of the fam-
lily were harmed. all = gsnmia

SARAH C. DOUGHERTY.

We give place to the following because
it relates to a person we'll known to many
of our readers and it will, no doubt, be
read with interest by them. We wish,
however, that the writer had given more
of history and less of an eulogy; or, at
least, given incidents in the life of the
subject, illustrating the good qualities she
is SAID to have possessed:
This amiable and esteemed young
woman, the eldest daughter of Rev. James
Doughcrty, died at Johnson, on the Sd
inst in the 9th year of her age. Miss
Dougherty has been for several years
valued and successful teacher. She had
rare qualifications for this work. And
her devoted life is worthy of mention to
embody its spirit is noble but difficult
attainment. In ner influence, as teach
err she had ATTAINED great usefulness; the
the habitual dignity of her character was
opposed TO all mere snowy appearances,
The law of her life was sincerity; reali-
ties, alone, were dear to her heart. She
clearly understood the teachers duties and
obligations. An idea in her mind was a
geam of light, and she loved to commu-
nicate it, as clearly as she saw it. Her
afectionate tenderness and unwearied de-
votion for their good, won the admiration
and confidence of her pupils. The silent
power of her loving and devoted life, un-
consciously, attracted them to her. They
knew she loved them. they felt the single
ness of her friendship, the blended dig
nifty and courtesy of manners endeared
her to large circle Of acquaintance and
friends. She was universally esteemed
These characteristics combined with her
assiduous devotion to study and labor, and
her clear discriminating mind secured Tor
her the rich and peculiar honors OF the
teachers life.
Her attention to her textbooks did not
hamper her mind, or prevent general rea-
ding and liberal culture. Refinement OF
taste, delicacy of feeling and judg-
ment of remarkable maturity and ripeness
blended in all her actions. The same
traits of heart and mind made her the
wise counsellor of her pupils and friends.
Her imagination was enriched with his
.toric and beautiful imagery, but it was
kept under the guide Of wise judgement.
Though she could clothe her sentiments
with appropriate and graceful illustra-
tions, yet they we're rather the acquisi-
tions Of thoughtful reading and careful
observation, than the play of the imagin-
alton.
Her intellect was eminently practical
one. She had great skill in seizing the
main points Of any question, and placing
them in clear light before the minds o.
her pupils.
She loved the contemplation of princi
pies; but in her application Of them, sh'
could make allowance for the actual stat
of things in the world and society arount
her. The greatest calmness and sweetness
of disposition we're manifest in all her re
lations. No high tones Of voice, or darl
expressions Of countenance in difficult ant
trying scenes indicated an irritatcd AM

esg Another brilliant exploit on a
small scale marks our naval operations
A large rebel schooner was burnt in Dunn
fries creek, on the Potomac Friday morn

and the men retired safely, although their
clothing and the boats were riddled with
balls.

"Here we are" said our conductor. ~"I
know Dolly has two hammocks empty,
and she'll take you in for my sake. Come
up, and I'll show you your quarters"
He dragged us up stairs where there
was large chamber hung with hammocks,
wherever there was room for one, and
pointing to two in remote corner:
There" said he, "you will be close
together, as snug as need be-"
No objections were made by us to this
arrangement,and we descended to the front
parlor, which was nicely sanded and toI-
erably clean. Here we found the landla-
dy.

friend, and he went his way.
We could do nothing better than to ask
the terms Of our hostess, for board and
lodgings for week, which being ascer-
tanned, we ordered dozen of fried oys-
ters and some porter. These were soon
forthcoming. We asked the cost.

But we insisted on paying, and we
were left alone, with the exception of
large parrot. which hung in the doorway
which opened to the street.
Here was dilemma and how to ex-
tricate ourselves We concluded to dis
cuss the oysters, and leave the event to
{ time. The oysters were gone, the porter
nearly exhausted, when we were startled
by hoarse voice:
What a pair of confounded lubbers,"
rang close to our ears.
We looked about for the speaker Moth
ing was to be seen. We opened closet
door, but it was empty. While we were
thus employed, the the same voice from
D the other side of the room repeated:
J What pair of confounded lubbers

We turned, and detected the parrot in
his cachinnations, Selling the pint pot,
dashed the remainder of the porter over
the insolent bird, who squalled like fury;
J and then we both took to our legs and
pushed for the slip. Turning the corner
before our landlady could discover US, we
hurried on, crossed the deck of Captain
Bradley's sloop, taking our trunk on
board the homeward bound packet. and
ensconced ourselves in the cabin till she
t was fairly under sail, postponing our ex-
E ploration of the city to a future day.
We all enjoyed the story of our friend,
; but none more than Mr.. K, who, be-
ing now in the vein, gave us his expert

THE Independent Farmer"
When first the rose in robe of green
Unfolds Its crimson lining,
And round his cottage porch is seen
The honeysuckle twining;
When banks of bloom their sweetness yield,
To bees that gather honey,
He drives his team across the field,
Where skies are soft and sunny.
The blackbird clucks beaind the plough,
The quail pipes loud and clearly,
Yon orchard hides behind its bough
The home he loves so dearly;
The gray old barn, whose doors unfold
His ample store in measure,
More rich than heaps Of hoardcd gold,
A precious, blessed treasure;
But youder ia the porch there stands.
His wife, the lovely charmer,
The sweetest rose on all his lands
The Independent Farmer
To him the spring comes dancingly,
To him the summer bushes,
The autumn smiles with mellow ray;
He sleeps, old winter bushes.
He cares not how the world may move,
No doubts nor fears confound him
His little fOcks are linked in love,
And household angels round him =;
He trusts in God and loves his wife,
Nor griefs nor ills may harm her;
He's NATURES uobleman in life

THE TARIFF.

The new Tariff Act, passed last week By the
Senate, ss it eamo from the House, without the
duty en- tea and coffee, was signed BY the Presi-
dent, on Saturday. Every Republican in the
Senate voted for the act, aud every Locofooo,
hpt Bglen, voted against it. 1t will be re-
nembered that last summer, Douglas, 10 his
eleotiooeering tour through Pennsylvania, de-
clared himself to be in favor of Tariff for
sbs protection Of Pennsylvania interests, yet
he voted along With his party, against The Tar
ID, thus proving true 10 his former Free Trade
record. We have confidence that with the ac-

REDEEMED, ERECT, ALONE ~

THE BLOCKADE OF THE OHIO.-It appears
that the North is determined that no provis-
ions shall be shipped to the South from that
section. On this subject we subjoin the fol-
lowing from the Cincinnati Gazette, of Mon
day:
Considerable excitement was created at
the wharf Saturday, in consequence Of the
discovery of large amount OF provisions on
the mail boat Superior, destined for Nashville
via Louisville. Some in authority thought
that under the late decision of Gov Dennison
the provisions should go, but number of
the Home Guard would not permit anything
of the kind. They did not approve of the plan
of feeding citizens or soldiers of disloyal
States. Hence they removed the freight, con-
sisting of eighty-six casks of bacon. Five
hundred barrels of -four for Louisville were
sent down on the same boat. We under
stand that the Mail Company do not intend
hereafter to carry provisions of any kind, I'M
less approved by the Committee of Public
Safety. The people of Lafayette, Ind, held
an enthusiastic meeting on Friday night rel
alive to the shipment of provisions South.
Resolutions were unanimously adopted con-
demning such shipments, and appointed a
committee to institute such police regula-
tions as may be necessary to prevent them.
