COMPARISON BETWEEN 1912 AND l86l.--Ar
valued cOrrespondent-an Octogenarisn, by
the way-writes as follows of the war feel
ing now and in 1872 III. F..
assure you that the feeling for fight is q
thousand times stronger now than il was in
the war Of 1912. The people are wrought
up, not to frenzy, but TO cool and calm
determination to make great sacrifice Of
blood and treasure to save the Union from
the spoiler. The simple fact that the traitors
in the late Cabinet both robbed and betrayed
the Government they had sworn TO support,
has given terrible earnest to- the whole
North that it must now fght and win, or
give up the free institutions bequeathed to
US by. our fathers forever, and become the
Jest and scorn of the civilized world.
The only feature of the times seriously 10
be regretted, is the morbid feeling Of the
AbOlitionists. A few, aud, thank God, they
are very few, Of our best men. are so,ds-
mented on the subject Of negro slavery that
they are as crazy as ever was John Brown,
and what is worse of all, they really be
heVe that the negroes would become good
citizens and grow cotton, after extirpating
their masters. II the whole border should
seeeds and send large army North, fear
there will be many John Browns soon in
their rear, and the torch aud the Bowie
| knife viii do its terrible work! 70

The Heroine Of Harriet Deecher stowe's
New Novel DeseTiptiou e Agnes Of
RorreneO0 n-
The Atlanao for May opeus with The first
chapter Of Mrs. Stoves new story, Agnes ef
Sorrento, and the heroine of the tale is thus
introduceds
The setting sunbeams slant over the an.
tiaue gateway Of Sorrento, fusing into a
golden bronze the brown freestone vestments
Of old Saint Antonio, who, with his heavy
stone mitsr and upraised hands, has for cen
turies kept watch thereupou.
A quiet time he has Of il up there in the
golden Italian air, in petrifed act of blessing,
while orange lichens and green moses from
wear 10 wear embroider quaint patterns on
the seams of his sacerdotal vestments, and
small tsseels of grass volunteer to ornament
the folds OF his priestly drapery, aud golden
showers Of blossoms from some more hardy
plantfall from his ample sleeve cufs, Little
birds perch and chitter and wipe their oeaks
unconeernedly, now on the tip OF his nose
and now on the point of his miter, while the
world below gees on its way pretty much as
1t did when the good saint was alive, and, in
despair of the human brotherhood took TO
preaching TO the birds aud the fishes.
Whoever passed beneath this old arched
gateway, thus saintrguarded, in the year of
our Lords grace -, might have seen under
its shadow, sitting opposite TO stand of
golden oranges, the little Agnes.
A very pretty picture was she, reader,
with such face rs you some times see
PAINTED in those wayside shrines of sunny
IlaIy, where the lamp burns pale at evening,
and gillJ flower and cyclamen are renewed
with every morning,
She might have been fifteen, or there
abouts, but was so small of stature that she
seemed yet child. Her black hair was
parted in white unbrOken seam down to
the high forehead, whose serious arch, like
that of cathedral door, spoke of thought
and prayer. Beneath the shadows of this
brow lay brown, translucent eyes, into
whose thoughtful depths one might look as
pilgrims qsze into the water of some sanity
well, COO aud pure down 10 the unblemished
sand at the bottom. ..
The small lips had gentle compression
which indicated repressed strength Of feel
ing; while the straight line of the nose, and
the flexible delicate nostril, were perfect as
in those sculptured fragments of the antique
which the soil ofItaly so often gives forth
to the day from the sepulchres Of the past
The habitual pose Of the head and face had
the shy unlocking grace Of violet; and ye
there was d grave tranquility OF expression
which gave peculiar degree OF character t
the whole figure.
At the moment at which we have callet
your attention, the fair head is bent, tn
icng eye-lashes lie softly down on the pale
smooth chick; for the Ave Maria bell i
Sounding from the Cathedral of Sorrento
and the child is busy with her beads.

y Made Of Rpdinz the War.

Wednesdays New York Times observes:
South Carolina has shown great deal OF
pluck in her efforts to prepare for war. She
has sent to Europe, according to report and
bought rifled cannon. The North are at
least her eqnaI in will and courage. We
have one thousand fold her money and
means to buy in Europe the best munitions
of war. The nation that brings into the
field the most destructive artillery and rifles
will win the day. Witness the campaign of
Louis Napoleon in Italy.
Tho yAinio- rifles of the French saved the
English army at Inkerman.
Now, it is absolutely in the power Of the
North to Overwhelm and crush the South in
the field at once and forever. Let the great
Northern States send agents and ships to Eu-
rope to buy at any cost 500 rifed cannon,
and 100000 MIME rifles, ard the hour OF
bitter discontinue of the South in battle,
is at hand, and thousands of our brave sons
are saved from death.
This may be reduced almost to matter OF
infallible calculation.
But it should be accompanied by another
act, which commends itself to the merchants
of New York and Boston as q matter Of
preservation and common sense, as well as
the most enlightened patriotism.
We can not wait to build Navy, in order
to make the Presidents blockade complete
and efectual. Yet it must he perfect, or we
lose millions sfioat upon the seas, as we'll as
enable the rebels to protact this wicked and
cruel war. ryy ~
Let the merchants of New York and Bos-
ton then, vie with each other in buying in
Europe a fleet of strong and swift small
war steamers, and hermetically seal the
Southern coast. .s r- las
The certain result of these two measures
will be to drive the rebels from the battle
field, and starye and reduce them speedily
to reason. 1t sOiA saVe thousands Of North
eTn hOes millions of Northern money, and e.
feet a speedy peace. ..-..

A NEW STEEL IN New ZEALAED.-ln New
Zealand there is, along the shores, a fine
metallic sand which has the appearance of
fine steel filings, and if a magnet be dropped
upon it and taken up again the instrument
will be found thiokly coated with the iron
eranules. The place where the sand abounds
is along the base Of an extinct volcano, and
extends several miles along the coast to the
depth of many feet, and having a CORE
spending breadth. Some of it has been
carried to England, and submitted to ex-
peIiments which have demonstrated the fact
that il affords superior steel. 1t is pro-
nounced TO 10 the purest ore at pzeses st
known il cOutaiRs 98-44 of peroxyde OF
iIoo, ll-43 of Oxode Of titanium, with silica,
end only IL Of waste in 100 parts. isl
Investigations show that if titanium is
mixed with iron, the character of the steel is
greatly Improved; but titanium being q
scarce ore, such mix ture is too expensive
for ordinary purpose. Nature has stepped
in here and made free gift of both metals on
the lsrgest scale. The steel has been formed
into rezors, scissors, saws, pen-kniFes, table
cutlery surgical irstruments, &C.; and the
closeness of the grain, the fneness of the
polish, and keenness of the edge, place IL
In the foremost rank-almOst In the position
Of atneW metal In the surgical instruments,
the edges have been examined by the micro
scope, and have stood the test in keeping
the superiority II is stated to possess pc,
culiar advantages for gun-barrels, and
b0riDg-cutters for ordinary purposes. ~
