IT'S strange how swiftly time has sped.
1t seems to me they all are dead
And 0. what tears I've shed,
Since they passed away!
I've seen little lambkins
Upon the hillocks playing,
They'd skip and bound and frolic round,
And gambol away
turned me round and looked again.
saw the place where they had been.
But o. they all were slain,
And all passed away.
I've seen swarms of insects,
All in the sunbeams sporting.
They'd haze and dance,
And buzz, buzz away;
Their bodies decked with green and blue,
Their wings all tipped with golden hue.
But with the falling dew.
They all passed away.
I've seen scores of damsels,
All gaily promenading.
All dressed so neat from head to feet,
Like butterflies gay
The monster Death was on their track.
Their rosy cheeks don't keep him back.
He hits them each crack
So they pass away.
I've seen my own children,
All fresh with beauty blooming
Their cheeks so red none would have said
That they must decay
turned and stood beside their bed
Their cheeks had changed as pale as lead,
Each gasping-dying-dead -
So they passed away.
Now this stalwart frame,
That's walking here before you,
And sings so loud, must wear the shroud
At no di,tant day
My bones with theirs must lie and rot.
And then my name will be forgot
And what if tits or not,
When pass away.
So all living creatures
The vital air are breathing,
Must yield their breath and sleep in death
On some future day;
They're av'ling in these Railroad cars,
And must endure its jolts and jars.
And then like shooting stars,
Must all pass away.
This long train Of cars
Is on the railway moving:
Women and men are in the train,
All facing that way;
The cars will soon run off the track.
There'll be an awful crash and crack;
When off, they can't come back
They'll all pass away.
So there they must stay.
All smashed up there together
cannot stop to help them out,
For I'm on the way;
IT'S true their cars were running fast.
And all run off the track at last,
know but what is past
They've all passed away.
IT'S true some will say
That we must rise together,
That angels then will sort us out
On one Judgment Day;
Now this is what some preachers tell.
But myself know just as well.
know but what tell,
They've all passed away:
Now this is what some preachers tell.
But myself know just as we'll.
Whether sent to Heaven or He'll.

REPLY OF CAPT. Al BLANCHARD.


Mr.. EDIroR:--I wish to say few
words in defense of my company and my
self in reply to a criticism in your paper
of the 18th instant, over the signature
Massachusetts. The criticism is I'M
just and untrue in almost every respect.
Firstly, we did not receive our arms in
front Of the Governors residence. Sec
ondly, we did not know where the govern
or lived. We arrived in St. Johnsbury
late in the afternoon, weary and dusty,
There was no one in particular to receive
us,--we were entire strangers. We knew
that the governor lived in st. Johnsbury
hut no one pointed out his residence to us
or even spoke of it. We had nearly six
ty rifles, taken along with us from john
son, which we received at Johnson-not at
st. Johnsbury. We paraded in front of
what they told us was Fairbanks Store,
where we were treated with lemonade,
which favor we duly acknowledged by
three hearty cheers. Upon my solcita-
ton, young man, clerk in the store |
think, consented to guide us to the bar
racks, where we arrived in due time.
presume we passed by the governors
house, and possibly the governor stood on
the piazza, but we were not advised as to
these matters Massachusetts" should
have duly notified us, then we should not
have been weighed in the balance and
found wanting. We would have come up
to the scratch and embraced military ETH
quette to the best of our ability on two
weeks drill.
In matters of prudence and right, Sec
ond thoughts are best. A man should
hear testimony, examine circumstances,
then give his decision. Massachusetts,
does seem to be ignorant of some useful
thing which he could learn by staying
with us longer; then he would not have
to rely on us for so many of his best
schoolmasters.
We are quite practical in our ideas, yet
we do make some professions to INTEL.
gence, common sense, and ordinary pc
likeness; but in military breeding" We
must succumb to Massachusetts who
is generous enough to admit that perhaps
we have carried the "art to its highes,
perfection"

CAMP BAXTER AS SEEN BY BosToNIAN.

Boston, June IA, Friday Eve.
Mr.. EDITOR 1T has been my good
fortune to spend a few days this week in
your pleasant village and of course have
been interested in the military stir which
Camp Baxter has created. For the uni
form courtesy extended to me by various
citizens, for the personal favors bestowed
by officers and subordinates at the Camp,
wish to tender through your columns my
sincere thanks. have never seen finer
regiment of men. The hustle of your
State concentrated at Camp Baxter will,
l am confident, strike as telling blows for
the preservation of the Union as did that
of oldcn time for its establishment.
Allow me to criticise one thing which
as stranger you will admit my right to
do. I happened to witness the arrival of
the johnson Company, and was surprised
to see how little respect, how much dis
respect l should say at home-was paid
to the Commander n-Chief. The Com
pany received their arms in front of his
residence, and then marched directly past
the piazza on which he stood without Of
fering the simplest salutation. Perhaps
| am ignorant of the military etiquette of
your State, and what scenes to me lack
of military breeding, may have been the
art carried to its highest perfection. To
one, however, familiar with the respect
shown the Governor of sister State, in
his official capacity, it did appear like a
great oversight at least. Kissing the toe
of Pope always seemed to me slavish
show of respect, but don't think the sim
pie salute given by volunteer soldiery
to their chosen Commander in-Chief is 10
the least repulsive to the spirit of our
Republican institutions.

He was President.
Who always did the thing he said.
And said the thing he meant.
A proclamation he did make,
And stuffed 1t well with threats,
And put in pluck enough to stop
The buster Of dozen Rhetts.
The nullifiers read thereof,
And all the South beside,
And never tried that game again.

New Article for n Bed.


We had an opportunity the other day of exam
ming model of the new Spring Bed, recently
invented by Mr.. Thomas Tolman, of Fitchburgh,
Mass, and which is so highly recommended by
those who have used it in Lowell, Nashua,
Fitchburgh, etc. 1t looks like first rate thing.
1t is made somewhat on the principle of a pair of
bellows--air tight at the bottom, with the eXcep-
ton of holes with clappers' over them to
admit the air when the pressure is taken from the
top of the bed. When the pressure is again made
upon the top, by movement of persons sleeping,
the " clappers'' close, and the air is forced ont
through the upper part or - stufing' of the bed,
which is porous thus continually ventiating it
and keeping it free from all impurities. The
uphOlstry is set upon spiral springs, braced so
perfectly as to render it impossible for them to
slip out of place land the filling is made of either
hair, moss, or prepared husks, as any one may
desire. 1t is certainly very perfect bed, and its
invention reflects much credit upon the ingenuity
of Mr.. Tolman.
We are also gratfed to refer to few of those
who have used these beds in St. Adams and vi
entity, viz -
G. H. BULLARD, Esq, Swanton.

Nlnzxiing Ihs Press.

The Northern journals entertain their read
ers with periodical essays upon the peculiar
characteristics of free speech and free pres
watch distinguish American civilization, and
are soroly exercised over the restriction i'm
posed upon the press Of France. We venture
70 say that more complete dcspotism was ne
yet excrted over the minds, tongues and pens
of men than has prevailed from the beginning
of this war in most Of the Northern Cities
Some men have been shot downin the streets for
expressing opinions il favor Of Secession. TIA
Northern man ventures to say, as thousands q
them, FILLMORE among the number, said, be-
fore the war, If were u S0utberner, as am
Il Northerner, | would never be ruled over by
u sectional despoGsm,' it is denounced as higi.
treason. How long will it be before people
who are thus intimidated from giving utter
ance to their thoughts, will cease to think at
all. and become the ready slaves of any aspir-
ing military genius who may seek to grasp
crown?
What wonderful progress must liberty and
the right Of free discussion have made in that
section which is eteTnally Boosting OF progress
and freedom, when, even as long ago rs the
American Revolution, CHATHAM, standing il
the midst Of d BRITlsH PARLIAMEST, could,
without molestation, aver the same principle
for which, at this day, Northern citizen must
be bran led with treason. He could eXcldlm,
in the midst of war, not as unjust and
abominablo as that which the North is now
waging against the South, " If were an Anne
rican, as am IN Englishman, 80 long as Il
hostile foot trod upon the shores of Iny coun-
try, | would never lay down my arms-neTcr,
never never" If the subject Of monarchy
could utter with IMMUNITY such sentiments,
what are we 60 think Of the Republican,, ID

The nusstion Of Il King.

The Northern press, in giving themselves so
much concern about the alleged willingness of
South Carolina to live under a hlng, are III
blissful uncon sciousness that they are them
selves at this moment the subjects OF despct
compared With whom GE oRGE the Third was
one of the mildest of monarchs. An EXecu-
tive who tramples the Constitution Of his
country under foot and usurps all power, Is
none the less despot because he retains the
name of President. If South Carolina were
to prefer a monarchy, it would probably be a
constitutional monarchy, which would at all
events be an Improvement upon the unlimited
monarchy Of King Mob and his Lieutenant
LINCOLN, by whom the whole North is now
ruled with rod of iron.
1t requires no prophet to predict that the
North is already ripe for King, and that to
that complexion they must come at last The
ductility with which they yield to the extraor-
binary usurpations Of LINCOLN, their disregard
of all law, the perfect recklessness with which,
in disregarding the constitutional rights OF
others, they set fatal precedent for the future
sacrifice OF their own, demonstrate that they
are not capable of self government and not fit
for freedom. If the South ever becomes mon-
archical, it will be some centuries after the
North has set the example. The crowded
population of the Northern States, and their
heterogeneous character, will render necessa-
ry, Tor the protection of all the great interests
of society, strong Government upheld by a
considerable standing army. Therefore, We
commend them instead Of spcculating upon
the alleged proclvitios of South Carolina for
monarchy, to be looking out for some cempe-
tent person to succeed the present usurpcr, and
as faithful type Of the dominant party of
those States, We would recommend them to
crown GREELEY, of the Tribune, who has
proved himself the master Of their editors and
statesmen, under the name, style and title Of
HORACE the First.
