before the ground is frozen hard, 10 remove

KNITTING.
BY WILLING Il. BUSHNELL.
And her beautiful head dropped lower,
And her red lips trembed apart,
And her soft eyes did not forbid me
To fold her close to my heart.
MARY Kyle Dallas.
She sat meath the shade of the naples,
When the sun dying out in the west
Flushed the landscape with bushes of crimson
With blood drops from its quiyering bIeast;
When soft through the scarce stirring foliage
Notified ribbons of light futtered down,
AS if angels weaving bright meshes
OF vermillion and gold Tor crown;
With her eyes glancing up-paying "bopeep" with
Love
From the shower of curls falling down from above.
"Knitting!n beneath her white fingers
The tissue rapidly spun,
SliIl the counterfeit flowers doomed lightly,
AS ii born meath the smile of the sun;
Knitting, and smiling, and singing
A strain of an olden time lay,
When faithful the knight, and the lady
AS brilliantly bright as the day;
For none inirer than the knight ere battled long,
For each sigh was pOem-each word song
"Kntting!" perchance and unthinking,
AS swiftly the meshes she weaves,
That she, weird sister, was spinning
life web, meath the rich maple leaves;
That with every stitch sue was tossing
From her needles with exquisite art,
She but tastenS a loop i'll the netting
Already woYe close round heart;
While the words of her love songin beauty disclose
Lips as blushngly red as the depths OF the rose!
"Kntting!" All! quickly she raises
The lids from each dark flashing eye;
Her breast heaves with wilder emotion,
And the song changes into a sigh
A Step-it is mine-has aroused her,
Her name on my lips trembles low,
And her face is flushed DER with beauty
More bright than the naples rich glow
More bright than the willows that seemed dropping
in wine
Than the ash all aflame-than the sunset divine!
"Knittingn' that eve when the violets
Irembied over siyeTy stream
When celestial the red of the flowers,
And golden the lily cups CLEAN;
W hen each tree glittering sunset,
Each leaf pallet of fire,
Each thought beauty-each motion grace,
As the clouds swept eXultingly higher;
When earth CLEANED, as the sunset rolled bright
through the west,
AS if atoms of ranbows stTewed DER her
breast!
Many times since have the naples
Burned bright i'll their glorious red,
The violets breathed their sweet incense,
And The rose Knocked the suns blusling red,
Many sunsets have come and have faded,
Been kindled to glow and expire
To deuge the earth with their beauty,
And fret it with crimson fire;
But still she is knitting beside me, and of myself
part,
For the pulse of dual being is throb of a sin
gle heart.

General Banks Retreat
JOHN A. ANDREW.

A good general will know as well how to re-
treat as how to advance. CYRUS immortalized
himself by the famous retreat of his army Of ten
thousand men tor nearly three thousand miles,
all the time pressed by an overwhelming force
The mort celebrated Greek classic of the pres Mt
day is the glowing account Of that famous re-
! t. eat.
In many respects We regard the rctrca. Of
General Banks as e'incin5 rem lrkahe military
skill and energy, and fully equal TO anything
thai has occurred during the war. Deprived
! Of the largest part Of his command Two weeks
since. 50 that nc had LETT scarcely four thousand
effective troops; with tile care az the baggage
and Of the sick Of the entire force OF ten thous-
and men ; his sitnatiou perfectly known to the
enemy; holding fifteen thousand Of their sol
diers at bay Tor that period, and then, when
pressed by an army four times his own number,
Oh flank and rear, retreating il good order for
sky miles, IN two days, saving ninety per cent
OF his train and great part of his command ;
we think this is Il retreat to be proud Of 1t is
far more remarkable than General Sige's, and
shows more endurance, more soldierIy qualities
in our troops than we supposed them to posscss
1t rivals the heroism Of antiquity, and though
far shorter than the celebrated retreat of the ten
thousand, might yet well enlist the pen of a
Xenophon to record it. All honor to General
Banks and his brave boys! We know not for
what reason of generalship or craftsmanship he
was so left, bu, he extricated himself from the
jaws into which he was thrust with a mastery
| skill and success.

Since the news Of the sharp fighting in the
Shenandoah valley and across the Potomac, there
is much anxiety to hear from the VT Cavalry.
No mention has been made of them in any of
the dispatches, and we are inclined to think that
they had left with the other troops who had
been taken from Banks to re enforce Mcdowell.
Ii they had been with Banks it seems impossi-
Bile that no alluslon would have been made to
them in any of the reports.
