NO LONGER YOUNG.

No longer youngS how sad 1t seems,
10 mark our mornings waning beams,
To feel our dreams are only dreams
To hear, in mirth Of girls and boys,
The refrain Of our earthly joys;
TO seem too old for simple toys
To catch a shadow In the glass
A fitting shadow as we pass
A face no longer young, alas!
Loves prophecy young years enfold,
Time steals It's glow with fingers cold
There's something sad in growing old.
II never comes again In soOth
viii, lnauhoOd's wisdom, ages truth,
The pleasant fever Of our youth.
We find, while memory's sea we sound,
Midst Iarest treasures wrecked around,
How much we've missed, how little found
Once. from lle's miser hand we bought
JOY, wilder than our widest thought,
But all. she kept the JOY we sought
For no new gifts we sti may bow;
She binds upon our faded brow
No opaline crown Of promise now.
We bear no more the exultant palm
Triumphant toward our zenith's calm,
But groping graveyard, sing psalm.
The self-asserting soul will crave
The song. like Joy II sought to save
Twill shrink back from the drear, dark grave.
Age hath It's pleasures, age It's pain,
The ripeness Of Times soberer rein,
The stated eye, the burdened brain.
The palsied pulse, the measured mien,
The ycarning for what once hath been,
The waiting for the dread unseenl
How happy II, with whitening hair,
And face all lined with lines Of care,
The soul looks upward, young and fairl

The Secretary of War has given the fol-
lowing instructions to the commander Of
the land forces accompanying the naval ex-
pedition, in relation to the employment Of
cOntraband negroes:
WAR DEPARTMENT, Oct. IA, 1861.
Sin In conducting military operations
within States declared by the proclamation
OF the President TO be in q state of insur-
rection, you will govern YOURSELF so far as
persons held to service under the laws OF
such State are concerned, by the principles
Of the letters addressed by me to Major
General Butler on the 30th of May aud the
9Th of August. AS special directions, adap-
ted to special circumstances, cannot be CIV
en-, much must be referred to your dlscre-
tion, as commanding General Of the expe-
ditOn. You will, however, avail yourself
OF the services Of any persons, whether fu-
gitiveH from labor or not, who may offer
them to the National Government. You
will employ such persons in such services
as they may be fitted for, either as ordinary
employees, or, If special circumstances seem
to require 1t, In any other capacity, with
such organization, in squads, companies or
otherwise, as you deem most beneficial to
the service. This, however, is not intended
10 mean general arming Of them for mil
itary service. You will assure all loyal
masters that Congress will provide just
compensation to them for the loss OF the
services of those so employed. 1t is be-
lieved that the course thus indicated will
best secure the substantial rights of loyal
masters, and the benefits TO the United
States of the services of all disposed to sup
port the Government, while it avoids all
interference with tho social system of local
Institutions of every State, beyond that
which insurrectiOn makes unavoidable, aud
which restoration of peaceful relations to
the Union, under the Constitution, will i'm
mediately remove.

How Hoastsrs Travel.

A correspondent ofthe Cincinnati Gazette
giving an account Of the expedition to Ac-
cOmac. of which our 2Ist Regiment formed
part relates the following anecdote of the
way the Hoosiers travelled:
We left Oak Hail in the evening and
marched some six or eight miles before
camping. The Zoo ZOOS were ia the lead,
and having marched in pretty quick time,
they took up an idea they were "putting
the 'Hoosiers through'--an idea that
seemed to tickle them amazingly. The
next day, however, we were in the lead, and
concluded to give our red brethren taste
of Hoosier travelling We marched fifteen
miles in five hours through sand shoe mouth
deep, and stepped for dinner a short dis
tauce this side of Drummoudtown. The
Zoo-zoos were strung along the road for
two miles back, and came Struggling in,
crest-fallen and Disguised, for half an hour
after. On the afternoons march their sur
geon rode up and begged Col. McMillen for
Gods sake to halt, saying that his men
could not possibly stand it.
