LEAF BY LEAF.

Leaf by loaf the roses fan,
Drop by drop the spring runs dry;
One by one beyond recall,
Summer beauties fade and die;
But the roses bloom again,
And the spring viii gush anew,
In the pleasant April rain, :
And the summer sun and dew
SO in the hours of deepest gloom.
When the springs of gladness fall,
And the roses in the bloom,
Droop like maid.ns wan and pale,
We shall find some hope that lies
Like silent gem apart,
Hidden far from car!ess eyes,
In the garden Of the heart.
Some sweet home to gladness we'd,
That will spring afresh and new,
Nhen griefs winter shall have fed.
Giving place to rain and dew
Some sweet hope that breathes of spring,
Through the weary time,
Budding for its blooming.
In the spirits glorious cline.

LEAD MINES IN THE HANDS OF THE REBELS
We are sorry TO learn that the richest lead
mine in Missouri, and indeed probably on the
globe, is now in the hands of insurgents
though they did not succeed in obtaining any
of the metal. The mine to which we refer is
situated near the village of Granny, Newton
county, within twenty-five miles of the south
western border of that State. 1t was opened
about two years ago by party OF capitalists
having their headquarters at St. Louis, and is
known by the name of the Blow or Kennett
mine. Last year it yielded about seventy five
thousand pigs, or six millions of pounds. I'm
like the mines in eastern Missouri and north
western Illinois, this is situated in a level
prairie OF vast extent. The supply of ore has
been pronounced inexhaustable by the State
geologist, and the quality is considered the
best on the globe, having scarcely any admix-
lures OF foreign substances. The great diff
Guilty has been transportation, their being no
navigable river nearer than the Missouri, and
and railroad beyond Rolla, which is fully
one hundred miles dintant. The western ter
minus of the Pacific railroad is little further
of but this route has usually been taken on
account of the superior character of the CON-
mon roads in that part of Missouri. With the
mines and furnaces at CRANKY in their posses
sion, the rebels can supply themselves with
lead TO any required extent.

It will be recollectsd that some time
since q mob of negroes and abolition,
lists, headed by Rev. Mr.. Gordon,
President of the Iberia College, tarred
and feathered and whipped Deputy
U. S. Marshal, for attempting to ar
rest a fugitive slave. Recently this
professed Minister was tried in the
United States Court at Cleveland, and
fined $3Ge and costs, and imprisoned
sA. sE.5 =
six months IN the Jail. The abolition
lists are raising terrible howl over the
punishment, but all good law-abiding
citizens will say, SERVED HIM RIGHT!

Au Abolition Attack Upon the
Conservative Generals,

Senator Chandler, of Michigan, a
radical Republican, on Wednesday last,
offered resolution instructing the
Committee on Military Affairs to retire
such Generals as they deemed expedi-
ent. This is intended as plan to get
rid of Generals Mcclellan, Halleck,
Dix, Sherman, Buell., Rosecrans and
other officers, who can not be used for
Abolition purposes. The people will
keep an eye on this proposition. They
will not allow our best Generals to be
offered up as political sacrifice.

How He would se,tl. the wnr,

Our old friend, Z. II. Custer, ESQ. .,
formerly of this county, but now of
Wood county, in this State, writes us
long letter about 'matters and things
generally" After telling us that his
two sons are fighting for their country,
(one as Lieutenant in thGrcgular ar>
MY, and the other in Col. Norton's 2lst
Ohio, he tells us how he would close
the war if he had the power. He says:
Il would whip the rebels completely,
and not leave a man but what was for
his country; and then never to stack
arms until the last Abolitionist was
dealt with, and that in this way: Give
them three chances; FIRST to take an
oath to be true to their country and
support the laws and the Constitution,
or leave for Canada, or be hung. I'm
less that is done we never can have
peace. Their leaders are as big set
Of scamps as ever went unhung." That
plan, friend Custer, would settle the
war. After his two sons had gone into
the service, our friend had some notion
of going himself, but the Recruiting
Officer thought he was rather old, he
being So. Our fri,nd says, that in his
country, the Republicans do the talk,
ing at home, while the Democrats 20
towar. That's common, friend Custer,
everywhere. Some of the patriotic
"stay>at-homes" doubted our friends
loyalty because he voted for Jewett fo,
Governor; and made some cowardly
threats which they did not dare to pu
into execution. The impudence of tht

parallel. s--
