ters. AT the present time there are over
four thousand letters lying in Washington,
which, from the careless manner in which
they have been addressed, will scarcely ever
reach the parties for whom they are in
tended. In writing to your friends in camp,
you should always use plain envelope, and
write as legibly as possible the name Of the
person addressed. You should also give the
letter of the company to which he belongs,
the number or name of the regiment, and
the place Of its location. Thus, for instance:
"John Smith, Co. A, Colonel Blacks Reg
iment, Penna. Volunteers, near Fort Corco-
ran, Washington, D. O." By the exercise of
little care, and the observance of the above
directions, your letters will always reach
their destination; but, otherwise, the chances
are against the parties for whom they are in.

A VISION OF VIOToRY.-Thomas Francis
Meagher concluded his speech in Boston the
other night as follows:
The picture unfolds itself to me. The re-
turning army, with that banner, the woods
men from Maine; the rihemen from the Up
per Mississippi; the farmer and the mechanic
from New England; all of them in their tat
tered uni orms, and with their ridded flags
ard amidst that crowd the green flag OF Ire
land, the laughing voices, the kindling eyes,
the hearty nature Of those whose vitality is
never greater, whose intellect is never more
vivid than when danger threatens. Zap
plause.l Oh, may this picture, roughly and
impeTfectly sketched, be realized! and in the
presence, and high above the remnants of this
victorious army, bearing with them the ark
of the American covenant may the National
Capitol expand its grand and graceful pro-
portions, its dome perfected, the greatest
image of Liberty standing more erect and
stately and august and adored than ever !;
and high above it, announcing victory over
the wide world, and an auspicious omen that
there shall be victories from henceforth of no
less consequence TO the United States, the
symbolic eagle of the Republic, soaring up
ward and upward to the sun. prolonged

A GENTLEMAN of large experience in India
has exhibited in Washington samples of cot
ton goods made from India cotton, that are
unquestiouably superior TO the American or
English fabrics from our cotton. He shows
the difference in the price of labor here and
in India by citing the fact that he has hired
native help in India, twenty FIVE men at a
time, for 81 each per month, they boarding
themselves. This would appear incredible
if it we're not supported by responsible and
highly-Tespectable testimony.

A WIFE THE SOURCE OF HOME HAPPINESS
Man presides over the warfare Of life; to
woman it is left TO regulate its peace. Man
provides the means Of subsistence; woman
must provide the means Of comfort. There
are few stations in life where man is not in
some respect worker-glad to seek res It
and cheerful enjoyment after the tolls Of
the day are past. Whether it be the hustle
of business or the cares Of state, the fatigues
of sport or the labors of professional duties,
to every man there is given work for the
day; to woman it is left to offer him q
pleasant home in the evening or to chase
him into dangerous scenes abroad. 1t is
not enough that the easy chair, the warm
freside, the good meal, are prepared for the
master of the house; bright faces and cheer
ful words, agreeable amusement and com
munity of feeling can alone make the par
lor more attractive than the club-room or
the theater. To this end, forbearance and
love are the necessary agents. without
ihese, no home can be happy, and the
bonds Of conjugal happiness are wanting.
In true wife, will center all these sweet
and tender affections which bind man to
the love Of his companion and his home
"the only bliss that has survived the fall. {"

Total $40
Making the usual allowance for losses BY
sickness, discharge desertion, etc it may be
safely assumed that the Tennessee forces in
the Confederate service do notexceed twenty.
FIVE thousand in number. The Northern esti-
mate of thirty-hve thousand was doubtlessly
based upon an allowance of one thousand
men for each regiment serving.
Of the above infantry, cavalry and artillery
force, eleven regiments of infantry only are
in Virginia-three with General Lees army,
under command of Brigadier- General Sam
r. Anderson, and eight under Beauregard
and Johnson. OF the rest, four regiments of
infantry and some cavalry and artillery are
said to be with General Zollicoffer-all the
rest under Polk and Pillow. The entire
number has been raised in Western and Mid
die Tennessee, with the exception of one
regiment lately mounted in the eastern part
of the State. The Irish regiments organ
lied at this point mostly out of idle steam
boat and railroad hands, and two or three
German companies, form part of it.
The principal commanders of the Tennes.
see forces are Major-General Pillow and
Brigadier Generals B. F. Cheatham, Csss.
well, Foster, Anderson and Zollicoffer. Polk
is a Major General in the Confederate serv-
ice, holding a direct appointment from JEFF
ferson Davis. OF the former, Pillow and
Zollicohers autecedents are familiar to your
readers. General Casswell is politician of
some local notoriety, but without military
experience. Cheathsm, one of the numer-
Gus family of the same name that have long
been identified with the history of Nashville
and Middle Tennessee, is a gentlemanly
blackleg-a reckless gambler aud habitual
topper. He was first Captain and afterward
Colonel of the Third Tennessee Regiment in
the Mexican War.
Bob Foster is also character of some
prominence in this vicinity. He likewise
served in the Mexican War. He is neither
much respected as a man, nor considered
military genius; so much so, that he has
thus far been kept at home in command of
this militia district. The record of General
Sam R. Anderson, commanding the Tennes-
see brigade under General Lee, is still more
luminous. His private character is of the
worst description. He has been guilty of
many swindling operations; among others,
one by which he robbed an orphan boy un-
der his guardianship of his entire inherit
ance. As politician, however, he had some
standing and influence. He was for many
years the postmaster of this city, relinquish-
ing the Office only last March. On the whole,
the Tennessee Generals are far below the
average of Southern commanders, and will
hardly shed any great luster on their native

Tenncsseo troops 10 tho onfedornte Army,


A special correspondent Of the New York
Tribune, who writes from Nashville, under
date of September 20, says of Tennessee's
contributions to the rebel army.
Previous to my departure from the North
q statement was circulating ir' the press that
Tennessee had furnished quota Of no less
than thirty five thousand men. This figure
is far above the mark. Some six weeks ago a
statement, prepared by the Governor in res
pOnse to a resolution Of the Confederate
Congress calling for detailed information as
to the number of troops raised by the sew
eral States, appeared in one Of the dailies of
this city. According to it. Tennessee had at
that time thirty four regiments of infantry,
ten companies of cavalry, and six batteries in
the field. A list of the companies composing
this force, published at the same time,
showed, however, that they averaged only
about seventy rank and file. Allowing them
seyenty-fve, we have only:
Thirty four regiments of infantry 40 compa-
mics Of 70 men each 800

CHAPTER I.
"Ifyou love me as l love you,
No knife can cut our love in two. ~

" If you love me as / love you,
No knife can cut our love in two
DILL PAXTON g..
Reader, have you ever stood on the heel
side of the Ohio Canal on one Of those mild
January evenings peculiar to the early au-
tumn, and watch the sun rise from his gor-
geous couch athwart the western sky, and
listened to catch the musical warble Of coal
heavers, mingled with the cries of the rag
ged canal-driver encouraging,a pair Of aten-
uated calico-mules? If you don't remember
at once whether you have or not, take time
to consider, and inform us through the post
office, inclosing a stamp. 1t was at such
time, and on such a spot, that two solitary
youths might have been seen walking arm
in-arm, in the vicinity about that time.
Need we tell you that one was a daughter
Of poor though wealthy parents, and the
ether was her lover?
After considerable time passed in rehec-
tion it appears rather necessary that we
should, because you wouldn't know if we
didn't. The young man had seen but nine
teen springs, yet did he urge his suit with
the passion and ardor of one who has at
tanned the ripe age of four score years and
ten, and Notwithstanding his weight did not
exceed one hundred and twenty-five pounds,
he couldn't have plead more eloquenty had
he weighed tun. The maiden was fair.
Toothbrush handles could not compare
with her teeth in whiteness and the ravens
wing had no more business by the side Of
her glossy curls than a stove-brush. Can
we wonder that the young man swore he
would cheerfully catch the measles for her
sake, and expressed willingness to have
the scarlet fever the second time to prove
his devotion
Alas the perversity of woman! Although
loving him devotedly, she replied to his
ardent declarations by sitting down on a
stone-boat, and writing him letter of in
PRODUCTION to the marines, to whom she re-
commended him to report that narrative.
Driven to frenzy by such trifing, Caleb
turned SO red in the face, he tore all the
buttons off his vest, and frothed at the
mouth to such an extent he split bran
new vest down the back. Then casting upon
her look of unutterable anguish through
o pocket telescope, he cried, False one
.fareweU for-r-r-eUer threw double hand
spring and disappeared behind high
board fence. Pheeby Ann phainted.
