Death OF AssrononeF Mitchell. os 4
From then. 7. Evening Pet.
"He is sent for to the Presence. "-[ Arabic9
Once more and this the noblest of the train !;
Like the grand star that guards the skirts
Of night, g,
Could he not stray above our murky plain
Till the fair dsyspring bless our aching
sight
That beam millennial which salutes the Right !
Inexoraole Fate the beam will hold
With equal hand, and show our scale as light,
Tho, youth, and strength, and wealth are fully
/, tolled-
Genius must follow yet, and mingle with the
gold.
His feet we're 'customed to the Milky Way.
On his high errsud he but turned aside,
Like old Ssmaria's Traveller, to stay
The blood and tears abandoned BY vile Pride
And % he knelt ut the poor victims side,
"To other ears . sound, to his song"
Came from the concave in mighty nde
Lol from his lettering see him speed along
His mantle and his faith to oil OF US belong!
He died where pois'nous weeds and poisoned
hearts
stile the life Of body and Of soul;
From the cursed realm al loneliness departs
An birds and flowers fly from the icy Pole.
Rush to the rescue Of the old conrol;
Through FIRE and blood redeem each hill anu
dell.
And when this dread sirocco hence shall roll
Onward or backward) to its native hell,
Sharon's unfading rose shall flourish where
he fell!

ABDUCTION By AN OURANa. OuTANe.-Ar re.
cent traveller in Borneo relates an abduction
case which exceeds in novelty anything which
has occurred among the fast population Of our
cities. A monstrous female ourang- outsug,
taking fancy to apoor Huret gentleman
whom she saw bathing, dragged him by force
to . tree, which she compelled him to climb
lodged him in warm nest, watched him with
feminine jealousy, fed him fruit and palm cab
bage, and forced him to travel from one branch
70 another instead of treading the ground
The tale is tragedy-for the ungrateful Nh.
ret not only ran away at the first opportunity,
but Afterwards shot the forest sJren with .
poisoned arrow.

BENTON bARRACKs.-The soldiers quarters
at this post have recently been cleaned, reft-
ed, and rendered more comfortable. Stoves
have been placed in the rooms and the walls
rendered more impervious to the insinuating
blasts of Boreas; in other words, the Barracks
are now comfortable winter quarters, and the
men Of the numerous regiments arriving and
departing every day, appreciate the efforts
that have been made for the comfort of any
soldiers who may be qusrtered there. This
Improvement has been brought about through
the management of Mr.. Augustus Pasquier,
Superintendent Of the Post, and by order Of
Col DeBonneville, the commander who are
both deserving of much praise for the manner
in which the work has been performed.-T Mo.

THE 34fH IowA.-This splendid regiment
soldiers arrived here Sunday night from Keo-
kuk, on the steamer Sucker State. 1t was
raised and organized in the central part Of the
State, four of the companies coming from War
rem county, three from Lucas, two from De-
catur, and one from Wayne. As an indica-
tion of the hearty and whole souled character
of the support which the noble State Of Iowa
is giving the Government in this terrible war,
We instance the case Of Decatur county,
which, from voting population Of 1862, sends
ten full companies to the field; as another there
is the county Of Lucas, which, with voting
population 1,045, sends siz full companiee to
the field. This is the State, these are the coun.
ties, and these are the true-hearted patriot SOL
diers that are now 80 Eobly throwing their
moral and physical influence and power against
the traitorous efforts OF the south to subvert our
glorions Government. The first soldiers con-
tributed by Iowa have covered themselves with
imperishable glory. In all the fierce conflicts
Of the West and Southwest they have sustained
themselves, without exception, in the most
gallant and effective manner, and with not
stain of reproach upon the garments Of the
least soldier among them. As noby as these
men have borne themselves, We believe there
is even as bright, if not q brighter record to
be made up of the actions of the splendid Iowa
regiments now pouring down the Mississippi
river, and Of which the oath is a fair specimen.
In all the Observation-Disclosures in the OIL
GERS and physical and moral development in
the men, they are unexceptionable and will SO
prove themselves in short time Mo. Dem.

THE FUTURE SocIErY.-Most men who
now remain at home, have passed tbs age of
youthful impulses, which, in the main. arc
noble and generous. They have re,ch-l the
time of life. when the decay OF youthful nr'i"r.
and the growth Of more cautious and prudent
sentiments render them fit subjects for the
temptations of avarice. These allied by
the new motives which begin to spring up in
the heart, about the age Of middle life. Most
men begin then to live for their children, and
to cherish the wish that, when they themselves
have passed from tie scene of action, their
descendants after them may rank high in So
cia position; enjoy place and influence; and
look back to them with reverence and respect,
as founders of families. In ordinary times it
is thought that this may be best acc Omplished
by accommodating wealth to leave them. This
is only pa, tally true; but, united with n
good education, and proper moral training. is
after all, the surest method, in the ordinary
condition of peaceful society. The desire is a
laudable one, and happy in its influences. 1t
is, indeed, the main spring of industry and
enterprise.
But the accumulation of wealth is not ali
powerful for this. There are titles to respect
higher than wealth, recognized in our land
There are influences more powerful than dol
lars, to elevate in social rank. The people of
the South have never given themselves over to
mammon, to worship him only.
Honor, which prefers death, in preference
to aught that VII tarnish it; patriotism, which
accepts poverty. in preference to subjugation;
philanthropy, which endures toll ard privation,
for the diffusion of relief amongst those who
suffer worthily: These all patents of no.
bility in our land of the South; and their
lustre descends upon children. and children's
children, and gives them higher places, though
poor, than are awarded to the sons of wealth.
