U. s. STEAMER FLAG

U. s. STEAMER FLAG,
WARSAW SOUND, Ga, Dec. 80, '61.
At ten this morning I was detailed
for sounding" duty on the upper por-
ton of Warsaw Sound and to obtain
soundings also of the mouth Of Laza-
retto Creek. This stream runs from
Savannah River and empties into War
saw (Great Warsaw above the south
west point of Little Tybee Island. We
got under weigh in the steamer Henry
Andrew, and stood down the Sound
from our anchorage, until abreast OF
Battery Point, on Great Warsaw Is
land. Then yeered to a point which
brought us in line with the North
Breakers, and followed these (keeping
them about one hundred yards on our
starboard), until we brought a white
bluff, on the north end of Wilmington
Island, to bear with Sand Spit on ex-
treme south-westernmost end of Little
TYbee.
OF course, a motive prompted our
movement; what that was time will
prove. The head Of Warsaw Sound is
exceedingly bold. The neck Of the
sound around Tybee Point, into which
several streams disburse their wealth Of
water, is at least six hundred yards
wide. 1t is noble sheet. Upon the
starboard there extends a bluff colored
marsh, covered with long grass. through
which the December winds sigh sadly

SADDLE HoRsEs.-The present war
times have given new value to saddle
horses. They are wanted for military
service, ard then the prevailing mar
tial spirit has caused our young men at
home to learn and practice the noble
and robust accomplishment Of riding
on horseback. Luxuriously cushioned
and closely curtained carriages may do
for the feeble and effeminate; but TO
the young and strong give the saddle
and the bounding steed.
Aye. and more than that: the saddle
is Just the place for the feeble who
wish to become strong, and who have
the courage and perseverance to take
this daily regimen. We speak what
we have tried and know, that for q pull.
monary complaint. nothing is better
than daily exercise on horseback. II
the weather is cold, put on more clothes
if wet, then throw on q rubber over
coat; but sally forth once day, and
Dobbin will bring you home in better
health and spirits than when you wenI
away.
There is great difference in horses
Some were born for the saddle and are
easily trained to it. Some are natur-
ally awkward, long paced. and high
stepping. making it penance to ride
them. Others, again, can be broken to
the saddle only BY careful training
With the latter, the work should be be-
gun early. Care should be taken that
a young horse get no fright by throw
ing on the saddle rudely, or by the ri
der's mode of mounting and dismount-
ing. Vex him not by unnecessary
roughness in putting the bits into bis
mouth. Let him not get the habit OF
starting suddenly at pokerish objects by
the roadside; for saddle horse, this
is one Of the worst of faults. And
when he does get frightened, do not
try to whip him out Of his alarm; he
will be all the more terrified the next
time.
Some horses have a good deal Of
style and carriage by nature; while
others, it must come chiefly from train
ing. Keep your horse from throwing
his head very high. or dropping it very
low. A little curve of the neck is very
graceful. An ordinary snaffle-bit with
a Inartingal enables one to manage the
head successfully. In certain cases. it
will not; and then the curb bride must
be resorted to. An occasional use Of
this will bring down a lofty head and
an outstretching nose. And then, con-
Trajectory as it may seem, the same
bride skillfully used, viii bring up a
doggisbly low head. But such a bit
should not be used constantly, or it will
lose its value.
The gait Of a saddle horse is some
what a question Of taste, but a slow,
easy gsllop is. on the whole, the most
popular. The natural gait of horse
(trot, pace, or gallop,) will be the ca
siest for him and his rider. A little
management, such as tightening or
loosening the rein, a motion of the
legs or Of the person, slight whistle
or a chirrup, will soon be understood
by the horse. and cause him to take
the gait or speed desired.-American
Agriculturist.

CALL THE ROLL.
By MRS. SARAH t. EoITos.

BY MRS. SARAH T. EoLToS.
Who is ready for the onset
Who with helmet, sword and shield,
Will go forth to conquer Error,
On life's battlefield
Who will strike at Superstition,
In his goblin-haunted cell,
And unloose the myriad victims
Fettered by his spell?
Call the roll.
Who will strive, on God relying,
With unwav'ring faith and hope,
To pull down the CORY seaffold,
And the gallows roper
Who will break the yoke of bondage,
And unbar the prison door,
Saying to the trembling sinner,
"Go and sin no more?''
Call the roll.
Who, forgetting self. will listen
To sweet charity's appeal
Who will labor for the lowly
With untiring zeal!
Casting bread upon the waters,
Not for human praise,
Trusting heaven again to find il,
After many days?
Call the roll.
Who will put what God has given
Wisely TO the nOblest use,
Who will clOthe the homeless orphan,
Fill the widows cruise,
And, like him of old Samaria,
Help the stranger in his need,
Reckless of his name and nation,
Reckless Of his creed?
Call the roll
Who that finds a child Of sorrow,
Heir to penury and wo,
Will not tarry to inquire
What has made them so,
Ere he freely shares pittance
From his meagre, hard earned store,
Or bestows cup of water,
If he can no more?
Call the roll.
Who, when SANDERS tongue is busy
With an absent neighbours name,
Will excuse the faults and failings,
And defend his fame?
Who will view poor human nature
Only on the brightest side,
Leaving God to Judge the evil
Charity would hidef
Call the roll.

WHox TO MARRI.-When a young
woman behaves to her parents IN a
manner particularly tender and respect
full, from principle as well as nature,
there is nothing good and gentle that
may not be expected from her, in what

Were l to advise a friend as to his
choice ofa wife. my first counsel would
be, "look out for one distinguished for
her attention and sweetness to her

Joined to the habits Of duty and con-
sideration thereby contracted, being
transferred to the married state, will
not fail to render her a mild and
obliging companion.--Star.

The commanding officer came up to
