the place. 1t was the daughter Of the
Governor of Upsala living in the city,
and the lady was the goVerness. She
was generally known for her goodness
and gentleness OF character, and look
ed at with admiration by all the stu
dents. As the young men stood gag
ing at her as she passed on like .
graceful vision, one Of them suddenly
exclaimed. .....r..-.
"Well it would be worth something
to have kiss from such 9 MOUTH"
The poor student, the hero Of our
story, who looked on that pure angelic
face exclaimed. as if by Inspiration
"Well, l think I conld have Itl''
"Whatl" cried his friends in q
chorus. "are you crazy? Do you know
herr"
mot at all" he answered, "but l
think she would kiss me now il l ask
her"
"Whst, in this place-before all our
eyes?"
"In this place, before your eyes,"
"Freely?" ..
Freely"
"Well, If she will give you kiss in
that manner, l will give you a thou
sand dollars' exclaimed one Of the
party.
"And l." "and l." exclaimed
three or four others, for so it happened
that several rich young men were in
the group, and the bets ran high on so
important an event. The challenge
was made in less time than we take to
tell it.
Our hero (my author tells not
whether he was handsome or plain; /
have my peculiar ideas for believing
that, he was rather plain, but singular
ly good looking at the same time, i'm
mediately walked up to the young lady
and said: .-f
"Mine frsulien, my fortune is now
in your hands,"
She looked at him with sstonish-
ment. bat arrested her steps. He pro-
ceeded to state his name, condition, his
aspirations, and related simply and
truely what just now passed between
him and his comrades.
The young lady listened attentively,
and at his ceasing to speak, she said,
blushing, but with great sweetness:
'If by so little q thing so much good
can be effected, it would be foolish for
me to refuse your request" and pub
licly in the open square she kissed
him.
Next day the student was sent for by
the Governor. He wanted TO see the
man who dared to seek kiss from his
daughter in that way, and whom she
consented to kiss so.
He received him with scrutiniEing
bow, but after an hours conversation
was so pleased with him that he ordered
him to dine at his table during his stnd-
les at Upsals. .....
Our young friend pursued his studies
in manner which soon made him re-
garded as the most promising student
IN tne ODlVerslty'
Three years were now passed since
the day Of the first kiss, when the
young man was allowed To give a Sec
ond kiss to the daughter Of the Gov
ernor.
He became. later, one Of the great
est scholars in Sweden, and as much
respected for bis requirements and for
his character. His works will endure
while time lasts among the works oi
science; and from this happy union
sprang a family well known in Sweden
even at the present time, and whose
wealth and high position in society are
regarded as tribes in comparison with
its wealth of goodness and love.

success of the whole day, took the position

The last moment l saw him before bis fall

met Captain O'Hara, who announced that
General Johnston was wounded. We fol-

found him reclining in the lap of Governor
Harris, who had gently lifted him from his
horse. | was told that the only and last
words he ever spoke were, some moments
after he was shot, "Governor, / believe I

agony of grief, threw his arms around him,

4 Touching Scene.

The Philadelphia Inquirer gives the fol~
loving as az incident occurring at Fortress
Monroe on the arrival CT the wounded from
the late Richmond battles:
Among those brought to White House
was a rebel Colonel who had been shot
through the lungs. As he appeared to be
dying, MIR. Barclay asked him if he wished
anything done, He said EYES," and gave
the commissioner the names and address of
bis wife aud children. And now," says be,
task God to forgive me for ever having
anything to do with this wicked rebellion
MIR. Barclay asked if he desired him to pray
with him. Fl answered in the affirmative
and after prayer petitioning the forgive,
ness of Almighty God fer his sins and His
fatherly interposition On behalf of the soon-
to>be widowed wife and orphaned children,
the penitent Carolinian raised his trembling
arms and threw them about the neck of MIR.
Barclay, and kissed him again and again.
The bystanders were all in tears as they
t1rred from the affecting scene and walked
silently away.

The following striking incident, with its
touching illustration of the burdens now
borne by the noble general-in, chief of Our
army before Richmond, we take from let

Oh that rain which described Had it
not been for that, Mcclellan would tonight
have been in Richmond. His plans were
smatured, and our march in overwhelming
force and vigor could not have been stop

the Commander. I felt today for the first
full sense of the vast labors he undergoes,
and OF the exceeding heavy burden of
the responsibility which weighs down
his heart and his brain, when Isaw him dis>

Mr.. Mayor and Geatleme's of the Common
Council of Boston--I can scarcely find
words to express to you the qualification
feel at the reception OF this splendid and
unexpected testimonial now presented to

sary for me to refer it, except 10 remark
that my Judgment still sfirms that act, and
were 1 placed in similar circumstances l
should not hesitate to act again as did in
that affair. l trust their capture will prove
the Cause of great blessing to this country
and other nations in establishing the great
American doctrine of neutral rights on the
ocean. or the settlement of international law
established now by precedent.
Thanking you, MIR. Mayor and gentlemen
of the Council, and through you the citizens
Of Boston, for the high homer they have
conferred upon me in this nemento, can
but assure you, while life lasts it will ever
be cherished by me with the most heartfelt
qualification, and be drawn only in defence
of right and of our country. ....

Wagon Road from Fort Benton to the
Mines.

From the Mountaineer-( Published at he Miaes.)
From Mr.. Toohil, expressman to Lieut..
Mullan's Wagon Road party, we learn the
following particulars of the progress of the
work. The winter camp was made on the
Big Blackfoot, at the Junction of the He'll
gate. Some thirty substantial log houses
had been built, in which the marty passed
the winter comfortably. Provisions were
abundant, and the health Of the men com
posing the command excellent. The party
numbered fifty citizens, and military es-
cort of one hundred men, The winter had
been comparatively mild-much warmer
than valleys below. Work On the road had
not been suspended, and everything was
progressing finely.
The roadwill be placed in thorough or.
der for the Spring emigration, when, it is
computed, that thousands will come that
way. From the head Of the Bitter Root vc5-
ley there is a good aoagoo road to Salmon
Ri0eT, ghicb can be traueled over IN three
days. The adventures from the Missis.
siopi valley, without doubt, will find it to
their advantage to take that route.
According to informant, emigrapts can
reach Salmon River ia ten days from Fort
Benton. A large number of steamboats, are
expected to come Up from St, Louis to Fort
Benton In the spring, and with them rush
OF emigrants. Ali along the Missouri the
excitement in relation to the Salmon river
mines is intense, and vast accession to the
population to the upper country may be
expected from that source.
Ihe briGge over the Big Blackfcot has
been completed, and the road from that
point to Wal!a Walla is in excellent con,
d,tlon, and with the coming spring our PEG.
pie will begin to realize the benefits that are
to result from the completion Of this great
enterprise.

Minnesota News.

A constant stream of emigration is pour.
ing through our streets, in search of homes
in the far West. The safest estimate of the
future of Minnesota may be found in the
lengthy trains of white covered wagons, the
droves of cattle and sheep, and the other
attributes of an extensive emigration,
which may be witnessed any day by a CLAN &c
at the moving panorama in our streets.
"There's good time coming, boys, wait
only little longer."-Rochester (OJmsted
Co.. Post.
The Chatield Democrat says: . The tide
of emigration to this State still continues
unabated. From twenty to thirty teams,
with the usual accomplishments of men, wo.
men and children, together with large droves
of cattle, sheep, &C., daily pass through our
village headed for the west.'
The La Crescent Pladsdealer, OF the 10th
inst, says, twenty-five emigrant wagons, one
hundred and fifty head of cattle, and three
hundred sheep came across the Mississippi
yesterday, at this point. The emigration
the past week was also very large.
The weather for the past week has been
quite warm and dry, in fact we have had
little or no rain for some two or three weeks,
and rain now could not be otherwise than
beneficial to the growing crops. We have,
during the past week, conversed with farms
ers from different parts of this and adjoin-
ing county, and are pleased to learn from all
that they regard the prospect for wheat as
good as that of two years ago, when the
great crop was raised. Corn and other
grain, they also inform US, promises largely.
Our farmers are all in good spirits at the
fine prospects before them-their only fears
being that there will not be hands enough to
save the grain. We, however, regard their
fears as groundless in this respect. Since
the above was in type we have had most
glorious archaeological Democrat, l4th.
THERE are said to be about 45,000,000
acres Of land in this State to which the
Homestead law is applicable.
The country is now arrayed in its most
beautiful robes of velvet green-as gentle.
men of poetical turn of mind sometimes
tell us. The crops OF all kinds are looking
exceedingly we'll, and Notwithstanding the
drouth, seem to be in O healthy and vigo>
rous condition. Never in the history of
Minnesota was such extended and beautiful
feds of wheat to be seen on every hand as
cow greet the eye of the traveller on the
broad prairies of the interior. Should pre-
sent anticipations be realized, the crop of
next autumn will be literally immense, and
OF tie best quality.-Wlaaoaaa Republican.

The military rule Of battle is, that the
distance of the Commander from the front
should be proportional to the length Of the.
line of battle. A Captains post is six
PAGES to the rear of his company; Colo
nel's forty, &c. The main point is, that the
Commander should be where be can control
his line to best advantage.
