mentioned this my belief He at once con.
firmed it, and spoke of an early Jesuit mis-
sionary upon the Lake, who, upon being
transferred to Tartary, to his astonishment
met in one the villages of that very distant
country, a woman whom he had known in
this. They mutually recognized each 9th.
er, and in answer to his inquiry, she said
she had been taken across Bhering Straits,
and was last lett where he saw her. This
same father, stricken by similarity OF the
languages, compared list in which the re-
spective tongues, Tartar and Algonquin,
being placed side by side, showed without
doubt common root or derivation. The
testimony from this truthful scholar was
more conclusive to my mind than the piled
up theories and vague speculations of a
college of savans. How many centuries
they took to traverse and occupy this i'm
mense extent of territory, break up into
bands which grew into tribes, by noninter>
course acquire dialects of their own, we
know not. But with their habits nothing
could be more natural and easy, and with
the abundance of game and means of life
came rapid increase of numbers, sufficient
as their wants and inclination prompted, to
reach all parts of the country, even to the
broad Atlantic, where now their very name
is traditi ion.

Romance of War.

A Washington correspondent Of New
York paper, tells the following about case
in Capt. Smiths company, Col. Townsend s
(of New York; regiment
Perhaps you remember young fellow in
our company, who went by the name of
Charley Marshall, a shy and rather good
looking chap, who seemed to be made of
finer stuff than the rest of US fellows. But
he worked into the good graces of Captain
Abel, without getting any of he boys down
on him, so we let him have his way. Well,
this chap turns out to be girl named Mag
gle Wilson, who is an orphan girl, and who
was missed about the time our company
was formed. How the discovery of her sex
was made, | have not been able to learn /;
but yesterday know she was doing duty
in the ranks in the same clothes as | was,
and in manner equal to the best Of US.
And this morning in different raiment,
land much prettier one) she was introdu-
ced to the regiment as Charley the VIVIAN
diere, and we were asked if we would adopt
her. You can bet there was no dissenting
voice, and we all like Charley" in her new
character much better than we did before.
How the thing has been managed since she
commenced "sogering," l can't say ; but
will endeavor to find out and let you know
more about it at some future time.

Origin of the Red Man.

The Nor'-Wester publishes a report of a
very able lecture delivered at Selkirk by
Mr.. FRANK LARNED Hunt, upon the Red
Man. In the course of his remarks, the
lecturer said
There has been vast deal said, surmised
and coDjectured, about the North American
Indian some saying that they are the de-
scendents of the lost tribes of Israel /; others
that they are the branch of the Aztec fami.
y. To third supposition that they are of
Tartar origin-crossing to the New World
and spreading over it, from Bhering Straits
II do most seriously incline. They show
it so unmistakably in their faces as to leave,
in my mind at least, scarce doubt. In a
conversation l had the happiness to enjoy,

THE RECONCILIATION.
BY JOHN BANIN.

This ballad is said to have been founded on
a fact which occurred in country chapel in
Ireland during time of facton-ights among
the peasantry.]
The old man he knelt at the altar
His enemy's hand to take,
And at first his weak voice did falter,
And his feeble limbs did shake;
For his only brave boy-his glory,
Had been stretch'd at the Old mans feet,
A corpse, all so haggard and CORY,
BY the hand which he now must greet.
And soon the old mau stoppd speaking
And rage which had not gone by,
From under his brow came breaking
Up into his enemy's eye
And now his limbs were not shaking,
But his clench'd hands his bosom crossd
And he look d fierce wish to be taking
Revenge for the boy he had lost
But the old man he looked around him,
And thought of the place he was in,
And thought of promise which bo1nd him,
And thought that revenge was sim
And then crying tears, like a woman,
''Your hand ~ he said-"aye that hand |!
And l do forgive you, foeman,
For the sake of Onr bleeding land! -

COMPLAINTS OF PRETTY WoMAN.-The
following from pretty woman, in the Home
Journal, explains itself. She is right.
There is high authority for prescription
OF handsome women at the sick bedside.
Handsome women are in dismay. The
Ladies' Relief Association refuse all vol
unteer nurses except plain ones. Nobody
is to be sent to Washington who has any
pretensions to good looks. Beauty is to
stay at home and scrape lint. This seems to
us all exceedingly ly tyrannical, though some
of US are trying to disembelIish to the el-
gible degree-leaviDg off our various little
becoming nesses, &c, &c. But it does
not seem to US very polite; for who wishes
to be handed over to history as woman
certified to be plain by committee
Then they accept none who are under thirty
Dear me! Is nobody to be devoted to dying
young hero except an old fossil like that
And how many are going to confess to
thirty? The army should be consulted, l
think, too, as to whether they really prefer
these nurses that are old and ugly! All
doses are not agreeable, and it may take
handsome nurse, sometimes, to persuade the
wounded Adolphus to take his medicine.
Should there not be at least Reserve
Guard (of us pretty girls) for this branch
of the service? Of course there is an ell
derly Army Surgeon at West Point. Could
you not ask him the professional question
as to whether good looks are not naturally
more soothing and healing? And ask him
whether plain, gloomy looking nurse (like
that hideous old Aunt Hopzibah who has
been accepted and gone to Washington is
not discouraging and irritating to the hand
some young sufferer"

ODE.

How sleep the brave, who sink to rest
By all their country's wishes blessed!
When spring, with dewy fingers cold
Returns to dress their hallowed mould,
She there shall dress a sweeter sod
Than Fancy's feet have ever trod.
By fairy hands their knell is rung;
By forms unseen their dirge is sung;
There Honor comes, pilgrim gray,
To bless the turf that wraps their clay;
And freedom shall awhile repair.
To dwell weeping hermit there!

The Trophies Captured at PhiIlippi.

A correspondent of the Pittsburg Chron-
icle writes of the results of the capture of
Phillippi and the Bebel Camp by our
troops as follows:
"The number of arms captured is seven
hundred and eighty stand, quite number
of horses, and all their camp equipage and
provisions. The rebel camp flag was
brought into headquarters this afternoon.
1t consists of blue field with eight stars,
and two brown and one white stripe. The
flag is about ten feet long and five feet
wide. The field is torn by cannon ball
having passed through it, from one of Col.
KellyIs six Founders. A gentleman just
from their camp, informs me that the pri.
Yates of Colonel Kelly 8 command are anu.
sing themselves by strutting around with
sword and small arms, cooked hats and 9TH
er paraphernalia of the secession camp. A
train has just arrived with fifteen boxes of
flint muskets, furnished by he Governor of
Virginia to the rebels. These arms have
not been used and are in good condition.
The other arms captured are not of much
account. A great number of boxes of blan-
kets were captured, which will be of much
service to our men. The amount of camp
goods taken is estimsted at $25,O0O. The
officers were we'll dressed and equipped, and
what were denominated the flower of the
ehivalry; but the men, except the dragons,
were badly equipped, hastily got together,
and will not fight, as there are among them
many good Union men, who have been
pressed into service. Colonel Willy, the
secession commander, is prisoner"
