THIS Bloody War.
m the Raleigh tN. c. Standard. Oct. !.

From the Raleigh u. ca Standard, Oct. 1.
Who can estimate the weight OF respon-
sibility which hangs upon the souls ofthose
wicked and evil-guided men, who, by years
OF toll and labor, brought upon the coun-
try this bloody war? Time can never
develop nor cure the evils which al
ready have been inflicted by their demon
like agency.
Upon the South the ruin is incalculable.
One hundred thousand brave men have
either died, or their constitutions broken
down, or they are manned, rendering them
a burden to themselves and to society.
The loss i'll property can not now be esti-
mated. And where is the ruin to end
From the North there is nothing to hope
from Europe we can look for no sympa-
thy. Nothing, perhaps, could crafty Eng
lish statesmen more than the utter ruin Of
both North and South.

HOODS SEASONS.

Summers gone and over!
Fogs are falling down;
And with russell tinges
Autumn's doing brown.
Boughs arc daily rifled
By the guilty thieves,
And the Book of Nature
Getteth short of leaves.
Round the tops of houses,
Swallows, as they fit,
Give, like yearly tenants,
Notices to quit.
Skies, of tickle temper,
Weep by turns and laugh
Night and Day together,
Taking half-and-half.
So October endeth--
Cold, and most perverse-
But the month that follows
Sure will pinch us worse.
