BEAUTIES OF SHADows.-The shadows
allday long play at silent games of beauty
Every thing is double if it stands in light.
The tree sees m unrevealed and muff1ed
self lying darkly along the ground. The
slender stems of flowers, golden rods, way
side asters, meadow daisies, and rare lilies,
(rare and yet abundant in every nice, level
meadow cast forth dim and tremulous
line of shadow, that lies long all the morn
ing, shortening till noon and creeping out
again from the root all the. afternoon, until
the sun shoots it rs far eastward in the even
ing as the sun shot it westward in the
morning. A million shadowy arrows such
as these spring from Apollo's golden bow
of light at every step. Flying in every
direction, they cross, interlacing each other
in soft net work of dim lines. Meanwhile
the clouds drop shadow-like anchors, that
reach the ground, but will not hold; every
browsing creature, every fitting bird, every
moving team, every unconscious traveller
writes itself along the ground in dim shad-

EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT,
COLUMBUS, April Is, 1861. !

The President of the United States has,
by his proclamation of the date of the 14th
inst, called upon the militia of the several
States of the Union, 10 the aggregate num-
Der of $4,000, TO suppress certain combl.
nations in several of the States, which are
too powerful to be suppressed in the ordi-
nary way, and SO to enable him to execute
the laws.
He earnestly appeals to all loyal citizens
to facilitate all bis efforts to maintain the
laws, the integrity of the National Union,
and the perpetuity of popular governments,
and TO redress wrongs that have long been
endured.
have assured the President that the
people of Ohio will promptly respond to
bis call, and will furnish the largest num-
Der of the required force that he will re-
ceiye.
This 1 have done because of my kuowl-
edge of your loyalty TO the Union, and
your devotion to the free institutions traEs
mitted to us by our fathers.
The people of Ohio, while ever ready
to extend to their brethren Of the other
States all their just rights and the full ben
eft of all Constitutional guarantees, will
spare neither men nor means for the pres
ervation of the Union and the defense of
the National honor.
Now, by virtue of my office, rs Govern
or of the State of Ohio, l call upon you
to organize yourselves into companies and
notify me thereof General orders will be
is. ued from the department, informing you
of all the details relating to the organlza-
etion and the mastering into service.
The requisilion upon Ohio is for thirteen
(I3) regiments for immediate service.
War is now waged against your Gov
ernment by the insurgent States of. the
South. Actual hostilities have commenced
Armed resistance has been successfully
made by the rebels of South Carolina, to
the efforts Of tho Government to furnish
supplies to the furnishing garrison of Fort
Sumter. The national flag has been in.
suited, aud the safety of the National
Capital is threatened. Your patriotism
points to you the path of duty in this crisis.
You need no appeal from me to testify
your loyalty to the General Government.
The Constitution must be maintained; the
Union must be preserved. aud the laws
must be enforced. w. DENNlSON.

How Life is Lost.

A man died the other day at the Belle
vue Hospital, after being sick over two
years. On opening the chest there was
scarcely single inch of sound lungs on one
side? The organ had broken down in one
mass of corruption, and the yellow matter
of consumption was dipped out with a
skull, the most convenient cup at hand.
He had been working in the garden one
summers day, and feeling little tired, at
noon, went round to the shady side of the
house and sat down to rest. A little wind
was blowing which was so very grateful to
him that be indulged himself i'll it for some
minutes, when he was taken with chill,
and never knew well moment afterwards.
Only two days ago, one of the sweetest
possible pare of black eyes came to enquire.
with all the shrinking and diffidence insep-
erable from the occasion, what We thought
of the case of young gentleman who bad
applied for advice within a week, stating
as reason that they were engaged to be
married. The young man had arisen one
morning in early May and dressed in very
light clothing, but he was SO much mista
ken in the temperature ofthe weather that
he was soon chilled, without the means Of
changing bis condition for some time; that
is, he felt chilly for several consecutive
hours, and has been an invalid ever since.
The disease had made such fearful progress,
that two-thirds of his lungs were useless
to him, and emanciation, night sweats,
harrassing cough and swollen feet, made
it useless to afford the encouragement of
even prescribing for the case.
These two cases involve the same prin-
ciple-getting chilled? one after exercise,
the other by remaining cold for hours
Surely, it is not hard to remember the les
son. Let every parent press it in the mind
of each 'child.-HaTs Journal of Health.

Proclamation by the Governor,
Executive OFFICE, COLUMBUS, OHIo
April Is, 1851.

To the People Of Ohio
You are called upon TO meet the gravesi
RESPONSIBILITIES, and it may be sacrifices tc
preserve your free institutions and YOU
national independence. The attempt oI
your Government 10 supply a beleaguered
garrison with provisions has been met by
open war-and the reduction of the garrison
by force of arms. Your national flag has
been insulted, and the constitutional au
thority of the Union, reasonably denied
At such an hour, rising above all party
names and party bias, resolute to malntair
the freedom so dearly purchased by ou
Fathers, and to transmit it unimpaired tc
our prosperity, let the people assert thei
power.
Your voice will be heard. Your actor
will bring hope to the overawed and op
pressed in rebelIious districts--will strength
en- the hand and animate the hearts of the
Ioval thousands in the Border States, and
will bring back peace and order to the
nation, with a new assurance of the per
petuity of its priceless blessings
The General Assembly, by acts just
passed, opens to you the method of testi-
flying your devotion to our beloved State,
the Union as il is, and those Free Institu-
tions which have been alike the foundation
and pledge of our National and individual
prosperity.
General Orders issued through the prop
er department, assert that method and in
vite your response.
Let US all, be thankful to Almighty God
for past mercies, imploring his pardon for
our many shortcomings, and trusting with
Him the destinies of our country, forget
all but the pressing duty, cast aside the
distinctions that have been the basis of
transient differences, and demonstrate to the
world that we are worthy sons great an
cestors, fit to be entrusted with the liber-
ties we inherit. w. DENNISON.
