MY GUEST.


/ have wonderous guest
Who speeds my feet, who moves my hands,
Who strengthens, comforts, guides, command
Whose presence gives me rest.
He dwels within my soul;
He swept away the filth and gloom,
He parnished fair the empty room,
And now pervades the whole.
For aye by day and night,
He keeps the portal, suffers nought
Dcfie the temple He has wrought,
And filed with joy and light
Once twas cavern dim;
The home of evil thoughts, desires,
EnkindIed by internal fires,
Without one thought Of Him.
Regeneratc by His grace
Still, tits a meager inn, at best,
For the King to make His rest,
And show His glorious face.
Yet Savior, meier depart
From this poor earthly cottage home,
Until the Father bid me come,
Whispering within my heart
81 shake these cottage walls;
Fear not at my command they bow;
Ny heavenly mansions open now,
And this poor dwelling falls"
Then my dear wondrous Guest
Shall bear me on His own right hand
Unto that fair and Promised Land,
Where | in Him shall rest.

But Sabbath protaned,
Whatever is gained,
Is a certain forerunner Of sorrow.

WAR MATTERS.

THE SECRETARY OF WAR AND THE
ARM1NG OF SLAvEs.-The PhiIadel-
mia LEDGER in an article which seems
to be authoritative, thus explains the re-
mark of Secretary Cameron at the DIM
ner riven to Prentice of the Louisville
journal:
g Mr.. Prentice of the Louisville Jour
nal, had a private party given to him IN
Washington few days ago. Mr.. Sec
rotary Cameron at the party is reported
70 have said that 'as last resort to put
down rebellion we ought to arm every
man who desires to strike for human lib
erty.' This is not what Mr.. Cameron
said. He was speaking OF the power
and resources Of the government to over
come the rebellion, declaring that 1t
would be put down beyond all peradven-
ture-that the great white race of the
North would re-establsh this govern
mcnt in every state of the Union, and in
the effort were bound to avail themselves
cf every means in their power. The
end was not yet, and when the last card
in this game was played, it might De
shown that the South's boosted source OF
strength was its great element of weak
ness.
lie was not for massacre and a war
upon women and children; but the slaves
would be duly organized aud armed, anc
governed by the rules ofmodern warfare

liberty, and in crushing out this mos
unholy rebellion. Mr.. Cameron's pur
pose seemed more to show the South.
utter inability to stand against the NortI
than TO present any policy ofthe govern
ment, or indeed, of any fixed purpose Q
his own. His allusion to any slave par
tcipation in the war, as we are informe
by one who was present, was only as
remote contingency, unlikely to harper

In ancient times, armies vSks
orth TO battle clad In steel. Ths
horses Of CO valry, ss well as the msu.
were covered with coats Of psil.
and the infantry had steel caps and
coats, and even their limbs were en-.
cased in metal. The Assyrisps and
GauIs bad also chariots OF war.
besides horseman aud footmen, IN
their armies. Each chafios. vss
drawn by tour feet horses covered
with mail, and barneseed abreast.
Huge projected horizontally from
each chariot, which, beside a
driver. contained several warriors
who were expert at throwing tho
javelin and drawing the bow. Ii Ia
rather remarkable that, with i'm.
provements in destructive agents Of
warfare, such as gunpowder. artillery.
muskets, steel armor gradually went
out ol use. The supposition 8 quite
natural that, instead Of abandoning
mail armor with the general intro
duction Of firearms, it would be tho
very thing to modify. in a great
measure, the advantages OF firearms,
still leaving the victory TO the strong
man instead VI the skilled. but per-
bape light inarksman.
o. course coats of mail arc not
proof sgainst artillery, bnt they aro
against lead bullets; and perhaps
they may yet be reinstated in their
former position. Modern military
tactics are mostly based upon rapid
movements, which most persons be-.
lieve cannot b- effected with heavy
ar,nor-clad soldiery. But it 10 fact
that the tactics of the great Caesar,
rs they relate to rapidity Of move
ment, have never been surpassed;
indeed, they were the model Of Ma.
poleon, who, in exhortiug his army
upon one occasion, told them that
they had not yet rival.ed the legions
of the great Romans. C,esar's Sol.
iiers were clad in cuirssses; they
also carried heavy iron shields.
The navies Of Europe are now be.
ing remodeled upon the old princi-
Pile oi clothing Soldiers in mail, and
Tor similar reasons we would not be
surprised il steel coats would again
come into uso in our armies.
An entirely new feature may alec
be yet introduced into warfare in
the character of steel clad steam

was fred npon by the masked bat
terry at Vienna, Virginia, last month,
wolld have been able to dislodge
the enemy bad it carried an eight.
een.pounder, and been protected
with steel shield an inch thick.
Steam locomotive batteries require
special adaptations to secure new re-
suits, but there are inventors who
can supply all the details.
Mail clad towers may also he
drawn or pushed up by steam en-
gines close to batteries and forts.
From these, Soldiers may be able to
