The members of the Mackerel Brigade,
now stationed on Arlington Heights, to
watch the movements Of the Potomac, which
is expected to rise shortly, desire me to
thank the ladies Of America for supplies Of
havelocks and other delicacies Of the season
just received. The havelocks my boy, are
rather roomy, and we took them for shirts
at first; and the shirts are so onarrow-minded
that we took them for havelocks. If the
ladies of America could manage to get n
little less linen in the collar of the latter,
and little more into the other department
of the graceful garmint," there would be
fewer colds in this division of the Grand
Army
The havelocks, as have said before, are
roomy-very roomy, my boys. William
Brown, Of Company G., put one on last
night, when he went on sentry duty, and
looked like a broomstick in pillow-case,
for all the world. When the officer Of the
night came round and caught sight of VIII
liam in his havelock, he was struck dumb
with admiration for moment. Then he
calculated:
/ "What q splendid moonbeamp
William made o movement and the ser
geant came up.
"What is that white object r. said the Of
fcer to the sergeant.
THE young man is William Brown said
the sergeant.
"Thunderl tell him to go to his tent and
take off that night-gown."
"You're mistaken said the sergeant;
"the sentry is William Brown in his have
lock, which was made by the women of
America"
The officer was so justly exasperated at
his mistake, that he went to headquarters
and took the oath three times running, with
a little sugar.
The oath is very popular, my boy and
comes in bottles, l take it incidentally
myself
The shirts, made by the ladies of Amer
ica. are noble articles as far down as the
collar, but would not do to use as an only
garment,
Captain Mortimer dc Montague off, the
skirmish squad, put one on when he went
to the Presidents reception, and the collar
stood up so high that he couldn't put his
cap on, while the other department didn't
reach quite to his waist. His appearance
at the White House was picturesque and in
teresting, and as he entered the drawing
room, General Scott remarked, very feel
ingly:
HAhl here comes one of the wounded
heroes"
giles not wounded, General" remarked
an officer standing by.
"Then why is his head bandaged up so?"
! asked the venerable veteran.
"Ohr' says the officer, that's only one
Of the shirts made by the patriotic wimmin
! of America
In about five minutes after this CONVEX
sation, saw the venerable veteran and the
wounded hero at the Office taking the oath
of allegiance together.

FATHER AND DAUGHTER.-There is no
prettier picture in life than that of daugh-
ter reading to her aged father. The old
man, while listening to her silvery notes,
goes back to other times when another one
sat by his side, and whispered words he
never win hear again; nor does he wish to
do; for, in soft evening light, he sees her
image reflected in her child, and, as one by
one gentle emotions steal over him, he wells
his face, and the daughter, thinking him
asleep, goes noislessly in search of other
employment. Virgin innocence watching
over the cares and little wants of old age,
is a spectacle fit for angels. 1t is one of
the links between earth and heaven, and
takes from the face of the necessarily hard
and selfish world many of its harshest fea-
lures.

To LET,-There are more things {" to let
than are placarded. Hearts are to lei every
day old hearts, young hearts, stricken
hearts-all empty-all to let.
There are heads to LETT to any new thing,
to isms, ologies and lists; heads without a
tenant.
There are hands to let. Hands plump
and fair hands lean and brown. Those to
love, these to labor these for rags, and those
for rings.
There are consciences TO Lett elastic, ac-
commodating, caoutchouc; at FIVE per cent a
month, sixty per cent year. To let ON
bond and mortgage, and a pound of flesh.
: And so it goes, from sods to souls; almost
every thing to let almost every thing with
its price every thing in the markets but
griefs. They are never quoted, never at a
premium, never "to let"

The Fashions High Colors.

The first dpant courier of the coming fall
season announces that high colors are to be
in vogue and take the place, with flourish
due their brilliancy and beauty, of the pale
and faded grise which we had begun to love.
Black and white continue to be fashion
able, but combined with black is one or two
shades of red, light scarlet ponceau, or a
deeper and more blood red tint, new shade,
to which we called attention some months
ago, under the French name " Rose Sub
lale." To the black and rose third ele-
ment is added, the golden maize, of the pre-
else ripened corn shade, and the combina-
ton, when arranged with taste, is exceed
ingly attractive. Blood-red, black, maize,
and HdUdna brown, are to be the leading
colors of the season, brilliant prospect for
brunettes, but dismal one for blondes,
whose blue eyes would turn green, and fair
complexion yellow, at such contrasts.
EARLY FALL BoNNErs.-The prettiest bon
nets for September, consists of white or
black spatted tuile, with deep curtain Of
nauUe, marguerite, ponceau or black velvet.
A wide scarf of velvet is attached to the
side of the crown by jet pins, and the wide
brides are the color of the velvet. Face
trimming is simply blonde cap, with small
tufts of feathers, and barbe of white and
black blonde, arranged in fat bow and
ends.
Black crinoline bonnets are trimmed with
maize colored velvet and black lace, so as
to produce a very striking effect.
Black straws have black silk curtains
bound with scarlet or maize, and are orna-
mented with mixture Of scarlet and gold
trimmings, a combination wonderfully be-
coming to q dark beauty. Black straws,
by the way, are to be the leading and pop
ular style for fall wear, made as snowy as
possible by q simple arrangement of bright
colored trimming, as prOfusion of decOra-
ton is vulgar.

That when our life on this earth should be rive
We might still hope for each other in Heaven7
Do you remember one day, you were i'll,

While every sigh sent a saddeninR thrill.
But my heart huBhed itself-hushtd itself still,
Listening to you, while you said.

Now you are better, dear wife, and our fate
Makes MS cling closer through life;
But should l die, Nellie dear, could you wait
Patient, believing me still at the gate,
Watching for you, little wife2
Nellie, look steadily up in the blue,
While l am breaking some tidings to you.
Darling our nation has need Of the brave,
mutt go forth in her cause,
Fight that Ltberty's banner may wave;
Die, u Dted be, our country to save;
Will you be patient and pause,
Ere you shall add ne more weight % a heart.
Breaking almost that we thus must part?
SOlemnly turned she her gaze from the blne,
Earnestly looked in his eyes,
Saying, dear love, to your country be true,
Go, and my blessing and prayer be with you;

Tell all the angels in Heaven above
That my beet gift to my country was love.
