DENTAL intimation Of duty. The exigency
is portentious. All are ready to meet it.
All are eager to meet it. This is the
ideal Of good citizenship. But portion
must meet it in peculiar personal service,
which they are willing to render. They
have many responsibilities, which operate
as check upon them. Many one can
not see why he should 60 in preference to
another. Hence the appeal is mad to
God, that He may determine who shall be
his apostle in this peculiar work. A
sensitive conscience sometimes makes a
coward of a man-until, satisfied by the
divine intimation of duty, the same con-
science makes the same man hero. His
military oath is sacrament. He is the
most enduring and trustworthy of SOL
diers. I'
Hence, when we come to drafting far
from having exhausted our patriotism, we
first attain to the consciousness of it's re-
ality, We are waking up our reserved
power. The war has come home to mems
busincs and bosoms. Push on the COL
umn. There is no security till we finish
this work. .
Indeed it is very possible that war
should demonstrate its popularity by a
pcremptory demand on the part of the
people for draft. In this contest with
rebellion we have heard clamorous appeals
for taxation. This is honorable. 1t
means that every man shall do his share.
We will not depend upon voluntary con-
tributions. So the most unrelenting de-
termination to furnish men up to the
largest demand of the situation many very
honorably and perhaps necessarily express
itself in this form livery citizen soldier
shall take his chance. ...

THE CRY OF THE HUMAN.
BY sALLIE BRIDGES.

A young child sat lonely in a hot school
room one sultry day in June. A difficult
sum- which over and over again, she had
failed to bring right, had wearicd her own
and her teachers patience, until she was
condemned, as q punishment, to remain
in continued study while her companions
enjoyed their recess in the garden below.
She was neither. a stupid nor obstinate
child; the task had needed some necessa-
ry explanation to render it comparatively
easy, which the heat of the day, and an
irritability produced by some outside
causes, made her instructress indisposed
to bestow; or, perhaps she forced her.
self to believe that the pupils advance
ment would be aided by the unassisted
working out by her own efforts of the
problems whose calculations formed part
of the educational plan. Be it as itmay,
she sat below, experimenting the restrict
ed play of her other charges, while, in
front of an open window above, the Offend
ing scholar sobbed herself into a head
ache. She dared not change her seat, and
the summer sunshine glared in upon her
desk, and the long rows of blurred figures
on the neglected slate; opposite, and lin
iting the view, stood high brick wall,
betwee, whose base and the garden fence
ran one of these small city streets reeking
with filth, and swarming with population.
The garden was two small to extend with
in the range of her vision, even as she
leaned forward to catch one breath of a
hoped for breeze, and there only foated up
to her fevered senses the odors of the all
Icy mangling with the sickening and
heavy scent of some blossoming plant. &
bShe crossed her hands on the green
baize before her and rested the throbbing
temples on the palms. Pain, the close
ness Of the air, sense of injustice, rem
dered her mentally and physically as mis-
erable as many sufferer Of larger growth
under more aggravated evils; for our sor-
rows are proportional to our strength
the trial of a child is as sharp to the
child, as keen in endurance, as is the
agony of man to q mans susceptibility.
Suddenly, as she there with her thoughts
all in whirl, there rose, through the ST.
lence of monday, hitherto broken only by
the tones of her school-fellows, a solitary
human voice; one of these sounds that
hoated continually through the summer
air of large cities---a cry of the streets,
the call Of some itinorant salesman, or
the bargainer for the offscourings Of our
homes, rags or old iron. There was in
the deep and prolonged notes that element

FROM RICHMOND

WARRINGTON, Oct 9.-Among the arrivals To-
day is Capt. r. @. Young, direct from Rich
mond, having left there Thursday by a fiae Of
truce down the James river. He, with Msio,
Barney of New York, were captured on The
2lst of September, while on horse back tour
10 the vicinity Of Bull Run by the 3Osh Virginia
cavalry, under Col. Chambloss, graduate OF
West Point.
Ihe prisoners spent four days pleasantly on
the way to Richmond, and were treated kindly
and Hospitality by their captors and by all whom
they met on the route. The cavalry regiment
OF Col. Chambloss was Handsomely mounted
and uniformed and fully equipped.
There appeared to be an abundance of salt.
Hour, fresh beef and shoes among the soldiers.
and good discipline prevailed. They treated
eacE other with great kindness and courtesy,
No whisky drinking or card playing was al.
lowed. Much comment is made BY the rebcl
troops as to the careless manner In which our
dead were buried on the plains Of Manassas -
ALI the rebel soldiers denounce General pore.
but speak 10 the most complimentary terms of
Mcclellan. The country districts are exhaust
ed OF food for man and beast, and In conse.
quence apprebensions exist OF great distressl
among the people during the coming winter
Everybody has plenty of paper money of ol
descriptions aud denominations.

those confined with Capt. Young had no cause
to complain. He, with thirty others, were mt

Col. Daniel UlIman and Lieut. Col. Brown,
OF New York, and about seven hundred others,
arrived at Annapolis to day, having left Rich
mond Tuesday morning. The rebel troops are
rapidly receiving new uniforms, consisting of
dark grey jacket and light blue pants. There
is no lack of arms, and they have more cannon
than can be used The general impression
among them is that the war will not end ill che

body, however, is sick of hostilities, and the
troops desire to return to their homes; vet one
constantly hears the remark, You may exter
