From the Literary Compartment
Southern Soldiers Song In the Noun
tains of Virginia.

From the bright sunny South, where in peace and
content
The years OF my boyhOod were carelessly spent,
From the WIDE spreading plains and deep flowing
streams,
Ever dear TO my heart, ever in my dreams;
To these mountains and forests, unShruking, Pve
come,
To battle for freedom, and honor, and home.
have left the refnements and comforts of life
For danger and bloodshed, privation and strife;
have shouldered my musket, and beted my sword
And Pm willing through mountains and forests tc
roam
In defence of my freedom, and honor, and home.
My father looked sad, but he bade me depart,
My mother embraced me, in anguish of heart,
And my beautiful sisters looked pale in their woe
But they kissed me, and blessed me, and babe to
go,
Mid mountains and forests, and foemen to roam,
To fight for my freedom, and honor, and home.
have left fair maiden, my hearts polar star,
More lovely than others, more precious by far;
Though she wept when We parted, wished not to
stay,
AT the call of my country FASTENED away;
lis nothing through mountains and forests to
When one does il for freedom, and honor and home.
Hope points TO day when this conflict shall cease,
And victory be followed by permanent peace;
When from Northern invaders our land shall be free
And hasten 10 the loved ones now growing for me
Ger my native plains twill be rapture to roam
When I've fought and have conquered for freedom
and home.

Black Spies.

UNSAFE "CoNTREBANDs."-Th is reason
to fear that the great number of contra
bands" who seek protection in our forts are
not all loyal. Some. without doubt, are in
the rebel service, and act as spies. They can
come and go at pleasure; and some undoubt-
eddy "go' wiser than they come.
Nor are all the vegetable hucksters who
visit the forts as innocent as they SEEM
Some of them are frequently more intent on
observing the objects around them than in
selling their potatoes or string-beans.
The facilities afforded these two classes of
visitors within our lines, may account for a
great deal of the information mysteriously
conveyed to the enemy.-ABany EUrning
Journal.
The Big Bethel and Bull Run defeats ought
TO convince our army officers how little they
can rely upon the stories told by the negro
fugitives of the condition and number of the
rebel forces. Whether because they were ne
groes, or because they were spies, about all
their statements have turned out to be false
In many instances, doubtless, they conveyed
to our officers precisely the reports which it
was for the interest of the rebels to spread;
and, permitted as they have been to roam
about our camps at WILL coming and going
as it pleased them, even when white strang-
ers were under strictest surveillance, it
would be strange if some of them have not
know.
1t is one of the false conceptions engender-
ed by the loose statements and exaggerated
harangues of the abolitionists-thate every ne
gro in slavery at the South is pining for his
freedom and eager to take the first means to
| secure it, and that he looks upon his master
| and the white men of his region with hatred
and as natural enemies. 1t may be doubted,
all the circumstances considered, if there are
not as many blacks to fight for their masters
| as 70 fly from them. At any rate, among
| the negroes who lounge hither and yonder as
they please within Cur lines, there are nearly
| as many spies as fugitives, and the military
| authorities will act wisely to have nothing
| to do with them, treating them precisely as
white stragglers are treated, and, above all,
| to give them no access to information which
can be used to our disadvantage either by
their treaehery or their garruiity.-N. r.

of accommodating a fortune consists not so
much in making money as it does in saving

render ourselves constantly liable to lose in
