GEN. BUFFERS DICTAToRsHIP.-Mr A.
Prentiss, late editor of the Lockport IN. W
Daily Union, now resident in New Orleans,
gives lively description of affairs under the
rule of Gen. Butler-written, of course be-
fore Gen. Butler was superseded. The city
commercially is dead-very dead. There is
little done in sugar and cotton, and that little
is controlled by Col. A. j. Butler, brother of
the general, who has large grocery house in
the city. Goods shipped to the interior are
purchased by Col. A. j., or-they don't go
up the river. He controls the country trade,
and some say he has cleared two millions of
dollars through his sharp transactions. Gro
Gerry men, "native and to the manor born,''
grin and bear the wholesale monopoly. The
drinking houses-so the proprietors of them
say-are supported by the United States gov
eminent, and the blue coats and gold lace
hanging upon their outskirts give countenance
to the statement. So outrageous had the
practice become, that Butler the other day
issued an order forbidding any commissioned
officer of his from drinking in the public bar
rooms. Houses of worse repute are also in
high favor with the army. Picket guards are
best supplied with money. Five dollars gets
any one pass into the confederacy. The in
tercourse between federal and confederate of
icers and soldiers in this city, on the lines
and up the river, is marked and notorious.
The occupation of New Orleans is a costly
investment. 1t is heart sickening to see how
northern opinion is abused and outraged by
the officers and men Of the New England and
New \ ork regiments who are chartered there.
The times call for reform.

The Cry of a Lost Souls

Tne Cry OF Lost Souls
BY JOHN G. WHITTIER
In that black forest, where, when day is done,
With snakes stiffness glides the Amazon
Darkly from sunset to the rising sum-
cry. as of the panied heart of the wood
The long, despairing moan of solitude
And darkness and the absence of all good,
Startles the traveller, with a sound SO drsar,
SO full of hopeless agony and fear,
His heart stands still and listens like his ear
The guide, as he heard dead bell toll,
Starts, drops his ear against the gunwale's thole
Crosses himself and whispers: GA lost soul!'
"No, senior, not bird. 1 know it we'll
1t is the panied soul of some infdel
Or cursed hereto that cries from hell.
Poor fool! with hope still knocking his despair,
de wanders. shrieking on the midnight air
For human pity and for Christian prayer.
saints strike him dumb, Our holy mother hath
No prayer for him who, SHINING unto death,
Burns always in the furnace of Gods wrathIn
Thus to the babtized pagan's cruel lie,
Lending new horror to that mournfu cry
The voyager listens, making no reply.
Dim burns the boat lamp; shadows deepen round
From giant trees with snake. like creepers wound
And the BLACK water glldes withouta sound.
But in the travellers heart secret sense
OF nature plastic to benign intOnts
And an eternallgood in Providence
Lifts to the starry calm of heaven his ewes:
And 10! Tebuking all earth's ominous cries
The Cross of pardon lights the tropic skies
'"Father ofall!" he urges his strong plea
"Thou Lowest all; thy erring child may be
Lost to himself but never lost to thee.
"Al souls are Thine; the wings of morning bear
None from that presence, which is every where
Nor hell itself can hide, for Thou art there.
Through sins of sense, perversities of will,
Through doubt and pain, through guilt and shame,
and ill,
Thy plying eye is on Thy creatures STILL
"And Thou canst make Eternal Source and Goal!
In Thy long years liie's broken circles whole
And change to praise the cry of lost soul!n
