Chesterfield Tactics.

The lovers Of fun ''6we" the author of
the following good thing zone"
Lord Chesterfield was generally regarded
as the paragon of politeness: aud as some
people think that orders given by military
officers, from Colonel down to a Corpur-
al, al a general thing, are entirely too
harsh, correspondent who has paid mucli
attention to military etiquette sends US the
following, which plainly shows that even
in warlike times these little amenities in
cident to first class gentlemen are not to be
forgotten. Our correspondent, WHO is q
member Of the Home Guard, says:
From the fact that the usual mode of
giving command by military officers fails
so barshly upon the ears of sensitive p-i-
Yates, the FLOWING style has been attach
ed TO regiment of Reserved Gray" and
is appropriately termed the Chesterfield
Manual.

a Singular Inc,d.nt.

The Lynchburgh Republican of the 2Gth
ult. publishes the following incident, re-
markabie alike for its melancholy fulfil
ment to the brother Of one Of the parties
concerned:
just Before the war broke out and be-
fore Mr.. Lincoln's proclamation was issued
young Nirgiuian, named Summerfeld,
was whiting the city Of New York, where
he made the acquaintance of two Misses
Holmes. from Waterbury. Vermont. He
became somewhat Intimate with Young
ladies, and the intercourses seemed to be
mutually agreeable. The proclamation was
issued, and the whole North thrown into
blaze of excitement. On visiting the ladies'
enc evening, at the hour Of parting, thew
remarked to Summerficll that their present
meeting would probably be the last; they
must hurry home to aid in making up the
overcoats and clothing for the volunteers
from that tuwn. SummeTfitli SAID he re-
GREETED that they must leave, but at the
same time especially requested them to see
;hat the overcoats were wei made. as it
was his intention, If he ever met the Eer-
mont regiment in battle, 30 kill one Of them
and take lis coat.
Now for the sequel. Virginia seeded
1 The Second VeamOut Regiment, "a portion
of which was from the town of Waterbury,
was send TO Virginia, The battle o! Ma
nassas was fought, in which they were en-
gagged, aud So was SummeItieli. During it
marked his man, not knowing to what
State he belonged the fatal baiI was sped
on its erraud of death the victim fell at
the cash Of the gun, and, upon rushing up
10 secure the dead mans arms, Summer
field observed that he had fine overcoat
strapped to his back, which he determined
to appropriate to his own use. The fight
was over, aud Summerheld had time to ex
| anime his prize, when, remarkable as it
may appear, the coat was marked with the
name of Thomas Holmes, and in the pock-
cts were found letters signed with the
names Of the sisters whom Summerfeld
had known in New York, and to whom he
had made the remark we have quoted. in
which the dead man was addressed as
brother. The evidence was CO nclusive-he
had killed the brother of his friends, and
the remark which he had made IN Jest had
a melancholy fulfilment. We are assured
this narrative is literally true. Summer
field wears the coat. and, our informant
states, is not little inn ed with the
sIngularitv of the coincidence"

FRIENDSHIP.
By II. C. sHoLIs.


How Oft the burdened heart would sink
In fathomless despair,
Bnt for an angel on the brink,
In mercy standing there;
An angel bright with heavenly Hight,
Aud born Of Hottest skies
Who shows her face to mortal race,
In friendships holy guise
Upon the brink of dark despair,
With smiling face she stands,
And 10 the victim shrinking there
outspreads her eager hands.
In accents low, that sweetly flow,
To his awakening ear;
She woes him back his deathward track
Towards Hopes efulgent sphere.
Sweet friendship, let me daily give
Thanks to my God for thee;
Without thy smiles 'twere death to live,
And Joy to cease TO be;
Oh biuerest drop in woes full cup,
To have no friend in deed;
To struggle on with grief alone,
Were agony Indeed.
ST RIV ON.
Strive on-the oceans ne'er was crossed
Repiuing on the shore;
A nations freedom ne'sr was won
When sloth the banner bore
Strive sn-'tis cowardly to shrink
When dangers rise around;
'Tis sweeter far, though linked with pain
To gain underground.
Bright names are on the roll OF fame,
Like stars they shine on high;
They may be hid with brighter rays,
But never, never die
And these were lighted mid the gloom
OF low obscurity,
Struggling through years Of pain and toll,
And joyless poverty.
But strivo-rhis worlds not all a waste,
wilderness ofcare;
Green spots are on the field Of life,
And hsxerets blooming fair.
Then striSe-hut, oh, let Virtue be
The guardian of your aim
Let pure, unclouded love Hume
The path that leads to fame.
