THE DAILY PRESS
THR VOLUNTERR's BURIAL.
BY PARK BENJAMIN.


'Tis eve one brightly besming star
Shines from the eastern heaven afar,
To light the footsteps of the brave,
Slow marching to a comrades grave.
The Northern wind has sunk to sleep;
The sweet South breathes, as, low aud det
The martial clapg is heard, the tread
OF those who bear the silent dead.
And whose the form, all stark and cold,
Thus ready for the loosened mold,
And stretched upon so rude bier2
Thine, soldier, thine the Volunteer.
Poor Volunteer the shot, the blow,
Or swift disease hath laid him low;
And few his early loss deplore-
His battle fought, his journey DER.
Alas no wife's fond arms caressed,
His cheek no tender mother pressed,
No plying soul vas by his side,
As lonely in his tent he died.
He died-the Volunteer-at noon;
At evening came the small platoon
That soon will leave him 20 his rest,
With sods upon his manly breast.
Hark to their hre his only knell-
More solemn than the passing bell;
For, ahl it tells spirit flown,
UnshriVen, to the dark unknown.
His deeds and fate shall fade away,
Forgotten since his dying day,
And never on the roll OF Fame
Shall be inscribed his humble name.
Alas like him, how many more
Lie cold upon Potomac's shore
How many green, unnoted graves
Are bordered by those placid waves
Sleep, soldier, sleepl from sorrow free,
And sin and strife. IT'S we'll with thee.
'Tis well though not single tear
Laments the buried Volunteer!

The IrOnsides---A Visit to Her and General
Description.

Fortress MONROE August p, 1862.
THE event Of to-day was the sudden arrival
among US of the famous new war-vessel, the
Iroasides. I had the pleasure Of going on
board Of her, and of being shown all over her
by her commander, the gallant and polite Cap
tain. Thomas Turner. The Ironsides is a
strange and inconprehensible looking craft /;
but after going about her. examining her pc
culiarities, and marking everywhere the ad-
mirable adaptation Of certain measures to Ger
tain ends, the conviction Is forced upon every
one that her capacity has not been overrated,
and that she will prove one Of the most for
midable engines of war that ever aoated upon
the water.
As we approached the huge, leaden color
ed craft, with its terrible proboscis, threaten
ing destruction to anything with which it
might come in contact, It was not easy at first
to realize her magnitude. It was only when
we fairly stood upon her splendid deck that
we could appreciate her proportions. She is
24O feet in length, Sc feet width of beam, and
stands some II feet out Of the water, with
her sides sloaping Inward, something after the
fashion of the Merrimac. When fully armed
and equipped she draws Is feet Of water, and
made easily seven knots an hour, though not
put to her full speed. IL was pity that her
u1asts had been removed previous to her ma
king her trial trip, for it would have been in
teresting to know how the vessel would act
under all circumstances. The removal Of her
masts was probably owing to the idea among
the authorities that she might ere this have
been called into action.
The armament of the Ironsides is terrific,
Beside sixteen IL inch guns-eight ominous
portfolios for them peeping on each side
she carries two enormous 200 FOUNDERS that
must crush to pieces any thing made, with
human hands, besides other guns
The mode of bringing the guns to bear on
the enemy, of opening and shutting the port
holes in time Of action, and the entire system
of protecting the men, are most admirable.
The engines are a splendid piece of workman
ship.

Brig. Gem Jim Lane on Artillery.

THERE is a good story long aaoat among the
friends of the Grim Chieftain." which, we
believe has never appeared IN print; but its
authenticity is unquestionable. Just at the
time when the Grim Chieftain was preparing
for The Great Southern Expedition" which
was never expedited, there was much talk in
the papers about the twelve inch mortars"
Of the Mississippi mortar feet. As James
twas to have" carte blanche Of stores for the
expedition, it struck him that twelve-inch
mortars would be just the thing for prairie
service, and it was at once telegraphed all over
the United States that Lane had ordered for
his expedition six tweIve-inch mortars." An
officer of ordnance in Washington, astOunded
at the announcement, asked James how he
proposed transporting these pieces over the
prairie.
80, very easily" said the grim chiefaiu-
- little carriage and pair of mules viii carry
EN-"
"Why, what do you supposea t1eelvo-inch
mortar is ?"
"Twelve-inch mortar? Why, a mortar
twelve inches long, Of course.
"How much do you calculate one OF EN-
will weigh?"
James began to suspect he had underrated
the magnitude of the piece, and thought bed
put it high enough, at all risks" :"
about hundred pounds"
"The weight of the piece is about $500
pounds, but when you come to add the oarri-
age etc, they weigh four thousand apiece.
Six of EN- will be $4,000
The Grim Chieftan concluded not to lug
the twelve-inch mortsrs' that time.

4 story about Gen. Butler.

{ STORY is told concerning Gen. Butler
which is not calculated to prove his conf
deuce in the safety Of the secession element
by which he is surrounded.
Some time ago Gen. Butler, finding that
it was almost impossible for him, to devote to
his wife the care to which she is entitled, re-
solved to part with her and to send her home
ward The day of departure arrived, and he
went with his wife and his children to the
boat on which they were to embark. Unfor-
tunately the water was high and the boat DIFF
fcult Of access. The plank thrown upon the
water between the deck and the shore iorn-
ed an acute angle, and BlondiR himself would
have found it difficult to maintain his epaTli-
brium upon it. But Gen. Butler, confident that
his center of gravity was sufficiently ponder
Gus to secure him against all accidents, ven
tured bravely upon the sleepy road. Hardly
had he walked Two steps, however, when his
feet glded along and down he went measur-
ing the plank with all his length, and produc-
.ing at the same time anoise somewhat similar
to that of an old kettle. His servants ran to
his assistance, aud he was soon up again.
When it had been aseertained that the Gen
eFal was unhurt, inquiries were made con-
cerning the sound of metal heard at the time
of his fall. It was not long before the mys-
terv was solved. The clothes of the General
having been torn in his perilous descent, peo-
pie saw, protruding underneath his coat,
large breastplate, reaching fromh his neck down
to his thighs. This was the object which had
produced the noise. Itwas aseeftamed alter
wards that the General wears this kind of
armor since his arrival in New Orleans, and
that he never g5es without it-Ner York

he had thought worth remembering. It is to
be hoped that out Of the material he has left
for such a work, we may have one which
shall represent to US some thing ofthe real ac-
tivities and interior lives Of those of whom we
know so little beyond their names and titles,
50 that they may seem to US more like living
men and less like mummies. At this present
moment we could hardly stop te read such a
book, no matter how vivid and lifelike. But
after the storm and the earthquake are over,
and we have learned to value the republic by
what it has cost US in brave lives, we, or eyes
younger than ours, will turn with new inter
est and delight to whatever in literature or
in art shall be commemorative Of those who
have served it best.
