s'Ah, never does the youthful mile
Such angel sweetness borrow,

A kind. sympathetic smile is never in vain ;
it lightens your own heart to see the good 1t
does to others. Are there not many dark hours
of sorrow2 Think if you could cheer some,
and you may many. Perhaps some day your

hope to receive them? Smiles and tears are
twin sisters, both capable of doing an incalcu-

Give an encouraging smile TO the young

"A word, look, has crushed to earth

Which, had a smile but owned its birth,
Would bless lies darkest hour
Many hearts pine away in secret anguish
from unkindness frem those who are their

friends, when kind smile or action from
them would have cheered their drooping
spirits, and created, as it were, new atmos-

The rebel RnrbrritIes.

1t has been denied, in some of the Balti-
more papers, that the rebels committed
cruel aud savage outrages on our wounded
after the battle of Winchester; but it will
be seen by the official report of Col. Gordon,
whose gallantry saved our dispirited troops,
that our retreatiug column suffered serious
losses in the streets Of Winchester, men and
women vieing with each other in the COM
mission of fiendish atrocities, throwing hand
grenades and hot water upon our soldiers
and firing upon them from the houses. Nor
was this all, The cuemy's cavalry sabred
and pistolled our wounded who felled by
the waysidc, and our soldiers in the hospit-
ais in Winchester were bayoneted in the
same apartment in which the rebel wound
ed had been tenderly cared for by our sur.
geons. This official record of rebel barbar-
ity effectually diSposcs of the denials which
have been put forth by the rebel sympathi-
zcrs. Col. Gordon, says:
"Mg retredting column suffered serious
loss an the streets Of Winchester; males and
females Uied '0,th each other in Increasing
the number of their victims By firing from
the houses, hrowing hand greaades, hot
mater, and missiles Of every descriptions
The keliish spirit Of murder ,oas carried
on By the enemy's cavalry, who followed to
butcher and who struck down with sabre
and pistol the helpless soldier sinking from
fatigue, unheeding his cries for mercy, in
different to his claims as prisoner of war.
"This record Of infamv is preserved for
the females of Winchester But this is not
all. O"r a0ounded in hospital, necessarily
left to the mereies Of our enemies, 7 an, cred
IDLY informed were 6ayoneted By the rebel
infantry, an the same town, IN the same
apartments, Dhere we, ,Dhen victors on the
fields Of Winchester, so tenderly nursed the
rebels wounded, 'cere eVen so more than bar.
barously rewdrded
"The rebel cavalry, it would appear, give
no quarter. 1t cannot be doubted that
they butchered our stragglers, thet they
fight under black flag, that they cried ms
they slew the wearied and jaded. 'Giue no
quarter to the id Yonkees." H.
