glass OF water, weakened with brandy. A
high private in the twenty-second Regiment
has promised to let me have one of his
square pocket handkerchiefs for a sheet the
first rainy night, and never go to bed On
my comfortable window brush without
thinking how many poor creatures there
are in this world who sleep on hair mat
trasses and feather beds all their lives. Be-
fore the rush of the Fire Zouaves and the
rest of the managerie commenced, | board

vania avenue, and used to slumber regard
less of expense, in well conducted ash
box; but the rZiltary monopolize all such
Accommodations now, and | give way for
the sake of my country.
tell you my boy, we're having high old
times here just now, and if they get any
higher shan't be able to afford to stay

If the vigiIant and we'll educated senti-

Then ali the reporters telegraph to theil

he'll be obliged to raise the rent.

Through the green plain they marching camo
Meas ureless spread like a table droad,
For the wild grim dice Of the iron game
Looks are bent on the shaking ground,
Hearts beat loud with knecng sound;
Swift by the breast that must bear the brunt'
Gallops the major along the 'front.'

And fettered they stand at the stark command,
And the warriors, silent, halt
Proud in the blush of mornin glowing,
What on the hilltop shines in flowing.

Many gap by the ball l. rent;

That the line may not fall to the fearless van.
To the right to the left. and around and around,
Death whiris in its dance on the bloody ground.
Gods sunlight is quenched in the fiery fight,
Over the host falls a breeding night

And the living are blent in the slippery food
And th feet they rcelpg and sliding go,

Mr.. Ruskin has been lecturing on tree
vegetation and tree twigs. He says, in the
growth Of every tree the operations Of wea-
wing and mining are always going on. For
every shoot upward corresponding rootlet
grows downward. Every leaf has a volt
ton of its own, whereby it is enabled to
seek light and warmth.

And each foil on his sit;
They swore a stream of six inch oaths,
And fit, and fit, aud fit.

Poetry.

a. The splendid battle piece by Schiller, as trans
lated by Sir Z. Dulwer Lytton, is invested with new
interest at this time, when war and rumors Of war
prevail. We fnd it republished in late Boston

several years ugo the translation was then
eously ascribed to John Oxenford. There Is pfoba-
bly, no poetry Of the kind equal to this by tho great
German Poet, in the entire world Of literature.
