LIFE is one vast scene of labor. Work
is the motive power of existence. It is
in exact conformity to great law of our
natures. that according to the amount Of
force expended is the degree Of physical.
mental or moral vitality sustained and in :
creased. God has placed us in world
where the necessity for toll is constant
and unremitting-where labor alone can
promote our comfort or tend 10 our hap
piness. Man owes not his civilization.

he owes it to himsclf-to bis stern con-
hict with difficulty. to that striving with
the material world which has tended
more than aught else to the evelopment
Of his energies and resources.
This necessity for action seems to be
an instinct implanted in the mind BY che
all-wisc Being who formed it. 1t is
manifest in the child as soon as it is ca
pable of motion, and from that period
through its whole child life its move
ments are varied and constant. And so
with all animate things. Action is the
Law of the universe. All around, above
and beneath Us We behold the results Of
this law. From the worm We tread be-
meath our feet to the wheeling spheres
that track the pathloss space. all perform
their appointed labor in this vast work

work! work! What were man without
it? Labor is as necessary As the air he
breathes. To bis social advancement it
is the oil without " hich the chariot wheels
of time would clog and refuse to move
smoothly forward. II is the life-giving
principle that diffuses vigor and enjoy
ment throughout the universe. Without
it there would be no world, for il not
all that We behold in earth, in air and
sky the product of labor-the work of the
Omnipotent? Aad here We behold work
as a divine institution. The example
was set by God himself, and since that
period what have been the works per-
formed Works Of the hand. the head,

As there seems to be some confusion in the
public mind regarding the whereabouts of the
southern armies, we think il as Awell to state
that on the 25th of last July General BRAGG
started with forty.six THOUSAND raen for Chat
tanooga; that he reached there on the 18th
inst, forping junction with the army of
KIRBY SMITH, now not numbering more than
seventeen thousand men.
There is no army between BUELL. and Nash
Vile.
PRlcE, with thirty thousand six hundred
men, was to leave Tuppelo this week for
Grand Junction, thence to march nobody
knows exactly where.
From Gallatia, Guerrilla MORGAN is to
march, or rather ride, toNards Bowling Green,
and from thence togards, not 10, Nashville,
with the simple object Of laying waste that
country. The rebels hope that the junction
of BRAGG and KIRBY SMITH will ens,ble the
former to crush BUELL. wholly; the last being
unable to receive reinforcements by railroad

Attempted Assassin a ION of the Emperor


Attempted Assassina,ion of the Emperor
or russia.
The London Morning Star publishes this
piece Of news;
We have received peitive information of
an attempt made within the last few DAYS
upon the life Of the Emperor of Russia. As
Alexander was walkingin the gardens of his
palace in St. Petersburg he was fred uron by
an assassin. The most strenuous efforts have
been made by the Russian government to
preventive news getting abroad, or, in case of
any runor finding its wayout, to induce it to
be COMPOUNDED with reported, but not fully
authenticated, attempt of tie same kind, which
gave rise to some alarm several weeks back.
Indeed, the Russian government exhibits at
present the most feverish anxiety to keep po-
litical intelligence from lther entering or
passing out Of Russia. So much is this the
case that we are positively assured that the
| Queens messenger, who hiss Just arrived from
| St. Petersburg, was STOPPED on the frontier,
| that the bag, with the seal md signature OF
| our foreign minister, was aiken from him,
| opened, searched, snd then lesealed and for
| wsrded to ST. Petersburg. The motive for
this extraordinary proceeding is believed Il
| nave bean g suspicion that +he British dispatch
/ box had been used as means Of conveying
into Russia communications which the Rus
sian government desire to have kept out of the
country.

ton of that duty. The recruit is regularly

vice, but detailed to special duty on MS own
farm to act in concert with his neighbors sim
ilarly enrolled and detailed When these bue-
collie legienaries see shance to shoot picket,

remember they are soldiers Of the Confederate

ment comes along to hunt the rebels, the

come to the ofiiee with demands for protection
or answer sll inquiries with-"don't know q

venient thing FOR the farmer, but it is rather
exasperating 20 the detachment of aasdisguised
soldiers of the nation and gives them clear
and palpable right to treat such men as their
crimes deserve. Oar troops are fast discover

THE BRIDaE AT RALEIaH-The bridge at
Raleigh is destroyed; and the natural query
arises who is to pay the damage2 Shelby
county, No. not q bit of it those who de-
stroyed and aided and abetted the destruction,
must pay the county, and they are already
known to the authorities, and their property
is naturally held responsible for the snug little
amount
There was something exceedingly childish
in this wanton act. It in no way impairs the
military communication of this division, as
all who knew the geography Of the surround
ing country are well aware; but ii does annoy
and greatly trouble people living at the other
side, who are now neeessitated to bring their
market goods to town by longer route.
Such silly, useless acts, sre bat the natural re-
suit of the guerrilla system, where any mount
ed fool is leader, and construes war TO mean
destruction Of anything and everything, with
out regard TO whether the loss falls on the
enemy he would injure orss on the peaceable
citizen.
