For the Montgomery County Sentinel.
IN MEMORIAL.

Oh tell me not my love is dead,
She sleeps, whilst angels guard her bed
Calmly awaiting Gods decree,
That joy shall follow purity.
But, ali that ace are left alone,
To weep, in secret tears unknown
Our heart-strings wruhg by memory's sigh
For her whose virtues cannot die
1t is not SOFT cannot be,
That she who laughed at rivalry
So young, SO lovely, full of bloom,
Should fall thus early in the tomb.
She's gone, It's true, from earthly cares,
Her little Footprints bathed in tears,
Leaning on Hope, with up-turned eye,
Gazing at Heay us brigh! scenery.
And now she lives Seraphim,
Around Gods throne to worship Him
Pleading the while for those she loved,
Whose hearts reflect the love she proved.

A VsiSabie Hint.

The following was sent by a cores
pendent to the editor of the Lady's Book ::
In severe cases of Group, pneumonia,
or any irritation of the lungs and throat
occasioning cough, a simple and almost
certain remedy has been found ehectual
and one which lies within everybody's
reach. 1t is loaf sugar Of the pure kind
broken into Jumps. For adults OF those
who prefer it, it may be taken in the
lump and suffered to dissolve in the
mouth; but for young children, Or those
whose throat is too sore to swallow the
sugar, let it be dissolved in cold water,
making thick, sweet syrup, and take a
mouthful at a time very frequently Two
instances have come under my own notice
and can answer for their truth One
was a babe Of seven months, attacked
with Group, who took half tumbler Of
swcetened water in teaspoon doses in one
hour, and was relieved instantly of cough
and oppression for breath. The other
was a soldier suffering from pneumonia,
whose cough was 10 violent as to cause
him to raise blood, aud who was relieved
by eating the sugar in Jumps. He pre-,
vented the parozysms Of coughing by
taking the sugar as soon as he felt one
coming, and since the first night he took
it has never raised blood, which be had
done with every spell of coughing for tvs
weeks previous. The remedy was first
used by lady in Philadelphia, and af-
terwards recommended by one of our first
physicians, who saw its success, and in
his own practice was invariably satisfied
with the result of using it. Remember,
mothers who have croupy and delicate
children, and live beyond the reach Of a
physician, the remedy lies in your pantry,
safe aud certain. Use it, In Group it
may be given frequently enough to act as
an emetic, with good effect

The Military Lessons Of the Amcri-
can War.

II the American War teaches us any
lesson at ALL it teaches US that science
and discipline are Of more value than
numbers in the field We have seen at
every step Of those campaigns that lit
tie fort did its work, while a great army
persisted by its own weight judging
by that experience, it is certainly better
to have a good system of defences than
half million of men. Happily, indeed,
it seems to have been established that
enormous levies and prodigal expendi-
ture are by no means necessary for the
effective prosecution Of war. The Com
federatcs have spent far less than tho
Federals, and have done more The
fabulous charges incurred on the Fede-
raj forces have moi rendered them ia the
least degree more effective. 1t is thought,
on the contrary, that a tenth part of the
force, well handled, we'll trained, and
well managed would have proved more
formidable to the South Numbers have
done little or nothing, whereas every sci
enGic appliance has done wonders. At
Corinth two gunboats saved an army,
and at Hampton Roads one iron-cased
ship saved a State. The Merrimac was
actually valued by the Northerners
themselves as an equivalent to $4,000
men London Times.

census the town had population Of
5, 022. 1t contained six churches, eight

newspaper offices, and two banks 1t is
located on the Rappahannock, at the head
Of tide-watcr, aud is sixty-fve miles by
railroad north Of Richmond, placing it
about equi-distant between that city and
Washington. The remains Of " Mary,
the mother of Washington" are buried
near the old town, in which she long re-
sided. Before the war a line Of steamers
ran regularly between Baltimore and
Fredericksburg, doing a fine business -
A canal and railroad to the place made
good trade, and besides, the water poVer
being good there were various manufac-
tories there.

Speech by Sam. Houston.

From the Galveston tTexasl News, Nov. l.
A letter from Brennan to the IeleguDh
informs us that General Houston pas sed
through that place the other day on his way
to Independence, with his family, in order
to get out of the way Of the Yankee invaders.
The people of Brennan were at the time
holding a meeting in relation to our cur
rency, and committee was at once sent
to General Houston, requesting him to give
his views. Gle complied, and as he arose
to address the meeting in this Court House
here to-day, l could observe-nay, could
not be Mistaken could see, say, tear
drop here and there, as he hobbled up and
looked around the meeting. He was lis
tened to with profound attention through
out He beseeched the people to abide by
the law; that it was sufficient for all pur-
poses; that if any one refused to take
Confederate money to point at him with
the finger OF scOrn,-that would be pun
ishment enough without resorting to harsh
er measures adopted by some of his friends
around him. Said that in some instances
man gave gold and silver, year
or two ago; then law stepped in
and said he could not collect the debt
and surely where the law prevented the
collection It was fair that the creditor
should have the right of refusal In the
course of his remarks he said that Gov
ernOr Lubbock had asked his advice about
sending any more men away from the
State. He advised him not in fact we
have sent our all that Gen. Hebert had
no control over him and that he should
not allow the State to be "knocked into
a cooked hat" but should look to its de-
fence while the savage Indian was at one
side, the alien in feeling Mexican on the
other; the enemy in possession of our coast;
the negro in the interior to look to, and,
which was more than all, some yet of the
type of that "drunken rascal" Jack Ham
ilton, to be looked after, who was appoint
ed Military Governor by Lincoln, as if to
mark his utter contempt of the people of
Texas. He wound up by saying that this
was probably the last occasion on which he
would ever address public assembly
one foot on the brink and the other in the
grave. He exhorted to temperance and
moderation, and to use all their efforts to
repel the insidious foe that was stealthily
marching to rob, plumber, and destroy
their homes, their property, ETC., and con-
Guided by beautiful peroration in his own
Casa septuagenarian, driven from his

rocked, and where he now expected to lay

There is an amazing degree of apathy on
the part of the public in regard to the pre-
sent face-to-tace antagonism ofthe Nation
al and Rebel armies, on the Rappahan-
mock We cannot account Cor it on the
ground of Inconsistencies Of the position.
Every citizen of the loyal North who reads
knows thst General Burnside has led his
grand army by a sudden oblique move
lnent, from the line of the Blue Ridge to-
wards Fredericksburg, and that General
Lee, not at all blinded by the strategy. i'm
mediately hogan to concentrate his whole
army at Fredericksburgh to oppose him.
For ten days the two armies have been
confronting each other in force, only
narrow stream dividing them, and the
pickets indulging in colloquies, not unfre-
qnently within fifty yards of each other. d.
Yet with the campaign in Virginia
brought to this imminent verge, there is
no emotion, no excitement to catch the
first booming Of cannon in the dreadful
fight. There was never so great degree
of popular unconcern on, the eve of q gi-
gantic battle. If there were q universal
superstition that the converging of the two
armies towards Fredericksburg were all a
sham, there would hardly be quieter look
out on their menacing positions in front of
that venerable town. We will not attempt
to explain the singular phenomenon we
have described. But certainly deeper
public interest would be more becoming at
such a critical moment. Battles do not al
ways nor ,oftenest begin by premeditation.
They frequently commence most mex
pectedly to both combatants. A stray shot
"a misunderstood movement-an errone-
GUS order by a subordinate-any trifing
error, may precipitate conflict when op-
posing hosts are placed as the two armies
are at Fredericksburg. Any moment we
may hear that blood is flowing in torrents
and the fate of the Union hanging on the
issue of the most sanguinary battle of the
war. No patriot has excuse to forget the
prayer, "God save the Republic %.

of the N. Y. Express.

Correspondence Of the N. 7. Express. fr.
H LEXINGTON, KY, Nov. 1S.
The recent removal of Gen. Mcclellan,
following so soon after that of Buell., gives
interest and Importance to the views of
Major General Nelson freely expressed at
Louisville few days before his death.
Buell. had not then arrived from Nashville
but it was known that secret negotiations
were on the foot for his removal These
movements Nelson denounced with his
usual energy. In one of his conversations
with a number Of leading gentlemen he ut
tered the following remarkable prediction:
mark my words, gentlemen l know
Gen. Halleck thoroughly. He is unques-
tionably man of great intellect, but heart
less and utterly INSCRIPTIONS He will toll
crate no man in the army who usurps the
affections of the soldiers. His whole ener-
gy is bent upon making himself dictator.
Mcclellan and Buell. are in his way, and he
shocking for an opportunity, and will seize
it when it comes, to remove and, if posi-
BILE, to disgrace them BOTH
In these views Brigadier General Jackson
expressed his entire concurrence. Ten
days afterwards Nelson was assassinated.
Within three weeks jackson was killed at
Chaplain Hills, and within six of the time
of making the prediction, Mcclellan and
Buell. were dismissed with contumely.
Time will show whether the dictatorship
is to be attempted, and thus perfect the
prophecy.

The Case of the ssBlanche,,..SpainO on
the Rampage. .-
adrid Corr. of the Paris Patrie, Nov. 8.

Madrid Corr. of the Paris Patrie, Nov. 8.
The affair of the Blanche and Montgom-
cry threatens to assume serious proper
tons. Spain, in view Of the fratricidal
struggle of the United States, compre-
hends the weight she can throw into the
balance by opening the ports and arsenals
of the Antilles to the Oonfederates. Push
ed to extremes by her lively sympathy
with the South, she seems determined to
profit by the circumstances, and show her.
self as evangehc in language as in action.
Agreeably to orders issued by the Minister
of Marine, two figates, two corvettes, and
two sloops-ofwar prepare to reinforce the
squadron of Havana, which, with this adj
dition, and by summoning also the divi-
sions now at Vera Cruz and Montevideo,
will be able to muster a score of vessels
and 400 guns. However insignificant
these figures may be compared with the
resources of the United States, it cannot
be denied that in the relative situation of
the two countries, Spain, sustained by her
right and by public opinion, will be in a
position to embarrass the Nationals very
seriously, by joining their enemies. These
considerations cannot escape the perspica-
city of President Lincoln, and lead to the
belief that the government at Washington
will hasten to disavow the conduct of Cap
tain Hunter, and will yield all desirable
satisfaction.
Gen. Dulee, who sets out in few days
for Havana, has received emphatic instruc-
tons to act in the business with the utmost
rigor
