The Coolest Thing on Record.

As Gen. Scott's army was marching trl
umphantly into tho city of Mexico, process
sion Of monks emerged from tho gate of a
convent situated on the eminonce to the right
and advanced with slow and measured tread
until they met the army at right angles. The
guide or leader Of the procession was vener.
able priest, whose hair was whitened with
frost of many winters. He held in both hands
a contribution box, upon which there was a
lighted candle, and when within a few feet
Of tho army the procession halted. AS the
army proceeded, many true believer in St.
Patrick, dropped some small coin OF other
into the priests box. And when it was OBJ
served that soldier was searching in his
pockets for something to bestow the old priest
would step forward and hold his box to re-
ceive the donation. UntimeIy, there came
along q tall, guant, lint er-sided, gander-
looking Yankee, who, On seeing the old
priest, thrust his hands into the very depths
Of his breeches pockets, as il in search Tor a
dime, or something of the kind. The priest,
observing his movement, advanced as usual,
while Jonathan hodirg a greasy looking roll
of paper, commenced very deliberately un-
folding it. The old priest anticipated lib
eral donation, and put on an air Of the most
exquisite satisfaction. Jonathan continued
to unrolI piece after piece of dirty paper, r,until
at length he found piece Of tri.twisted
smoAing tobacco. He next thrust his hands
into another pocket ard drew forth a clay
pipe, which, with the utmost deliberation, he
proceeded to fill by pinching off small parti-
cles of the tobacco When this was done
having replaced his tobacco in his brooches
pocket, he stopped forward and lighted his
pipe by the old priests candle,and making an
awkward inclination of the head Gotonded,
perhaps, for bow he said, =" Much obliged

Patriotism in Vermont.

On oar return from the Vermont Confer
ence, VIC found the capitol occupied by the
Legislature, busy with tho interests Of the
extra session. The patriotism Of Vermont
seems to be thoroughly reused. The
national flag is every vhero seen stirring in
the broezes that fan our capital, and the cry,
= to arms. is meeting with q prompt and
generous response. The passage Of the bill
throug the House, to raise million of dol
lars in our State, to furnish the snews Of
war fer our national defense, was enthusias-
tically cheered by the citizens, who crowded
the galleries.
This is what we might expect among these
green hills. The history Of the world af:
fords ample proof that patriotism fourshes
best amid the cherished scenery of romantic
hills and mountains. Who has not heard of
the devotion of the Swiss to liberty and
country? Among the hills Of Vermont pat
riotism has a stalwart growth never reached
upon the no1otonous plains OF the sunny
South. Liberty here can never be conqnared.
Who ever heard III the history OF the world.
Of the South over-running and subduing the
North? The Green Mountain Boys have
name in history which will not be- tarnisbcd
by their present struggle for the national
honor and seourity.-MeSsemger

Pennsylvania fairs.

Harrisburg, Pa, April %. The Governor
message will recommend the passage of stay
law. The declaratory part will say thai Penn,
sylvania will open the route laying from the
North to Washing ton, essential to trade and
transit, whether Maryland stays in or out
the Union. No hostile soil shall be permitted
to lie between the National Capital and the
States loyal to the Union. The rebellion mus.
be crushed, and the Nation restored to its en-.
tirety. The National property seized and pos
sessed by the rebels must be restored at evcrv
expense Of treasure and blood. 1t will recon
mend an appropriation Of three millions, per-
haps five.
The requisition of the General Government
today, through the hands of Gen. Patterson
for 2l more regiments-20 infantry and one
calvary makes a total for Pennsylvania, of
SO regiments, numbering 20 500 men. There
are applications for filling all this contingent,
which is already full, save four regiments
There is no chance yet for the PhiadeIphians.
The Governor will also recommend in his
message the requiring of 10000 men to be
brought out and encamped, drilled and armed
beyond the present requisition of the General
Government, in order TO form reserve to
march anywhere they may be required, to ill
losses occasioned by battle or disease. Thus
Pennsylvania will have altogether 4O, 900 SOL
dicrs in The field.

The Massachusetts Eighth and New York
7th Regiments

Speaking Of the Mass. Eighth and the II i.
Y. 7th Regiments, an Annapolis letter says ::
"Tae Massachusetts troops undertook the
repairs of the bridge and track they being f.-
miiar with such WORK, and would not allow
the Seventh to lay their hands to any work,
" for" they said, you are not used to this
kind Of work, and we are. You can do the
open field fighting, and we will do the hard
work ,aud when it comes to rough and-tum-
Bile fight, you will find US there
The warmest friendship has sprung up be-
tween lhese two regiments from the moment
they met, and it was cemented by little in
cdent which was narrated by an eye witness.
Some of the Massachusetts troops were pass
ing squad of the Seventh who were seated
by the roadside eating their rations of bis
cult, and, Of course, they stopped TO speak to
each other, and in the course of conversation,
one of the Massa achusetts boys chanced to re-
mark that they hadn't had their rations yet.
Instantly every one Of the Seventh sprang to
his feet, and although each man had only one
biscuit, that was halved with their friends, as
well as their salt pork and it was gladly
accepted, for they had been cut all day with
out mouthful to eat or drink.
1t was not long before this incident be-
came known in the Massachusetts Regiment,
and from that time forward the Seventh have
almost been worshipped. Not man in the
Regiment but would go
through fire and water to serve the Seventh.
OF the twenty who came home in the Bal.
tic, eighteen were invalided at Annapolis by
reason OF sickness or physical inability to
perform the arduous duties required Of them.

And melts the ice of hate to streams oil love;
Nor aught but kindness that fine chord can touch''

Fortress Monroe.

Many inquiries have been made as to the
character and capabilities of Old Point Comfort,
or Fortress Monroe. It's gratifying to be able
TO state two important points First that Fort
ress Monroe can hold most effectuaIly the sea
entrance opposite Gosport navy yard and the
water OF the Elizabeth, Potomac, Susquehanna,
and Patarsco. Secondly, it is well manned,
armed, and provisioned. There need be no
alarm, therefore, for the troops going by water
to Washington, Or in fact to any point north OF
that where tho government chooses to send
them, The fortress is, we believe, the largest
in the Union and built with every guard to
protect Hampton Roads.
In the Gazette of Virginia, published by Jo-
seph Martin, and printed at Charlottesville in
1883, under the head of " Old Point Comfort"
we find very full description OF this g'and
8 ructure. After stating that all the states OF
the Union had contributed some portion toward
its coastructlon the article concludes with the
following spirited and patrlotIc suggestion
In this cdifce, which is to form u stronghold
in cepral positon--delend our great naval
depot, and protect our naval power over the
OCEAN; and especially to afford a place of refuge
to the commerce of the nation, each commercial
state may point to portion of the blended
strength, which it has contributed to the com
mon structure. The castle at the Rip Raps
should then be called. as well from lis use as
from its origin, The Castle Of the FEDERAL UN-
loN--and when attacked by foreign Or domestic
assailants 1t should run up the ensign of "the
federal Union the watchword, it " must be
preserved
The idea is excellent at this time, and we
would suggest to some of our patriots the pro-
priety Of sending to Fortress Monroe a national
banner with the notices suggested by our Vir-
gna publishers in 1885 boldly displayed there
on. 1t mi ght call blush to the cheek of some
traitors, and compel them, in shame and contu-
sion, to return to their allegiance.--N. 4.

Say " Our Father

Eustice Hastings, father of little Eve, who
was very i'll with scarlet fever, was an infdel.
Sitting alone with her late one night, the child
turned from side to side uneasily, and looked
somewhat wildly around her.
- What is the matter, my darling ?" Said
he.
" Where is mama? Eve wants mama to say
1" Our Father.''
He had often seen the little child kneeling
beside her mother, and saying " Our Father.''
" Mama is asleep he said, when she
awakes will call her" -.
No, no, papa, Eve will sleep then
d" will call her at once, then
g No, don't wake poor mama,. Papa say
'' Our Father - for Eve
" Well Eve say it to papa p
" No, Eve too sick, papa Eve can't talk so
much. Papa kncel down and say g Our Father"
like mama did last night, won't you papa %
lie could not resist that voice. and kneeling
down and laying his hand on the clasped hands
of his little child, he commenced the prayer.
He understood it and trcmbcd at it, but his
infdelity was annihilated
Soothed by this, she tall asleep, but only for
a few minutes. Suddenly, in louder voice.
she said
g Papa, papa, see there, up there, papa;
Her eyes were fixed on the ceiling. while
smile of Joy played on her lips, and her arms
were stretched up as to some heavenly vsitant.
{" Eve coming she cried again - Take
Eve
g VIII Eve leave papa p he said
With her eyes still fixed upward, and ex.
pending her last strength in an effort to rise
from her bed, she murmured in broken tones
papa come too-nama-grandpa,li little brother
Gear papa"
Thc last words could barely be distinguished
when the spirit left for heaven Charms and
