A BACHELORS DEFNCE.-Bachelors are
elors are styled by married men who have put
their foot into II as onty half perfected beings.
cheerless vagabonds, but half pair of scissors.
and many other titles are given them; while on
the other hand they extol their state as one of
perfect bliss, that a change from earth to heav-
en- would be somwhat of doubtful good II
they are so happy, why don't they enjoy their
happiness and hold their tongues about it 1?
What do half the men get married for? Sim
ply that they may have some one to darn their
stockings, sew buttons on their shirts and trot
their babies; that they may have somebody, as
married man once said. to pull off their boots
when they are little balmy.r
These fellows are always talking of the lone
lineliness of bachelors. Loneliness indeed !
Who Is petted to death by ladies who have
daughters? invited TO tea and TO evening par
ties, and told TO drop in just when it is conyen-
lent? The bachelor Who lives in clover all
his days, and when he dies has flowers strewn
on his grave by the girls who couldn't entrap
him? The bachelor. Who strews flowers ON
the married mans grave his widew? Not a
bit of it; she pulls down the tombstone that
six weeks grief has set up in her heart. and
goes and gets married again, she does. Who
goes to bed early because time hangs heavily
on his hands? The married man Who gets
scolded for picking out the softest part of the
bed, and for waking up the baby when he
turns out in the morning? The married man.
Who has wood to split house-hunting and
marketing to do, the young ones to wash, and
the lazy servants to look after? The married
man. Who is taken up for whipping his wife !?
The married man. Who gets divorced? The

THE SICK AND WOUNDED AT WASHING

lHE DIX AND NbtcDrD Al WA1biNn-
ToN.-The condition Of the sick and wounded
soldiers in the hospitals at Washington, and
the generous provision made for them by Gov
ernment. are thus described In a letter to the
New York Express:
Most of the wounds are very slight, but
some few of them are bad enough. The enc

of different sizes. saw two Just taken from
one poor fellows neck and back. as | entered
the Columbia Hospital. Some Of these mis-
siles make ghastly and horrid wounds, and yet
patients are doing well. One ball went through
the lungs of soldier at Williamsburg, six
weeks since. aud the poor fellow is doing well.
Another, last week, was shot through the lace,
the ball entering one cheek and coming out
at the other. and he. too. will recover. Some
of the shots follow the line OF bones without
doing more than grazing them. Others work
upward and downward and cross-wise-some
times remaining in the body, and at others
passing clean through or slowly working their
way out.
The necessity for amputation is not frequent,
but limbs are amputated on the battlefield ev

had to lose their limbs here. That you may
know how good provider the Government is

are nearly ten thousand disabled persons now

MISCELLANY.

A CONFIRMED GRUMBLER.--Some time ago
there lived in Edinburg well-known grumb-
er, named Sandy Black, whose often-recurring
fits of spleen or indigestion produced some
amusing scenes of senseless irratibility. which
were highly relished by all except the brute's
patient little wife. One morning Sandy rose,
bent on quarrel; the haddies and eggs were
excellent, done TO turn, and had been ordered
by himself the previous evening; the breakfast
passed without the looked for cause of COM
plant
"What will you have for dinner, Sandy ?n
said Mrs Black.
"a chicken. madam" said the husband.
"Roast or boiled?" asked the wife.
"Conlound it, madam, if you had been
good and consderate wife. you'd have known
before this what liked,n growled Sandy. and.
1t was in spring, and friend who was pres
ent heard the little wife say
'Sandys bent on a disturbance to-day. l
cannot please him, do what mayr
"The dinner-time came, and Sandy and his
friend sat down to dinner: the fish was eaten
in silence, and, on raising the cover of the dish
before him, in towering passion he called
out.
"Boiled chicken! / hate It. madam. A
chicken boiled is a chicken spoiled,
Immediately the cover was raised for anoth-
er chicken, roasted to a turn.
MADAM, won't eat roast chicken y roared
Sandy; you know how it should have been
cookedr'
At that instanta broiled chicken, with mush-
rooms, was placed on the table

lerw

How dare you spend my money in that
way?- said he.
"They were present." said the wife. inter-
rupting him.
Rising from his chair, and rushing from the
room, amidst a roar oflaughter from his friend,
he clenched his fist and shouted:

Hunting Four-Ieaved Clover.

Down among the meadow grass,
Searching II all over.
Bless me, amt II pleasant here
Hunting four-leavcd clover
Over head the dancing leaves
In the breeze are swaying,
While beneath the light and shade
Hide aud seek are playing.
swcctly sing the merry birds
In the branches o'er US,
And the group beneath the shade
Swell the happy chorus.
Now and then q holy hue,
Laden with his treasure.
Darling from the clover-blooms,
HUNS n drowsy measure.
Through the dewy-scented grass
There's streamlef flowing,
And upon its mossy banks
Meadow lilies growing.
In among this scent and bloom,
Gay with mirth and laughter,
Keen black eyes are sure to fiad
What they're seeking after.
Down among the meadow grass,
Searching II all over,
What a merry band are we,
Hunting four-leaved clover.

LA RosrERE-on Sunday last the annual

LA RosIERE.-On Sunday last, the annual
| ceremony of the coronation of the "Rosiere,"
| at Nauterre. a small village about five miles
| from Paris, where Saint Genevieve was born,
| attracted crowds of visitors from the metrop-
oils. The ceremony is very pretty one. Each
year the claims of a number of yong girls (who
must be under eighteen years of age and pos
sess a certain degree of beauty for chastity,
virtue, piety. and general good conduct are
presented to the mayor and municipal council
of the village. From the list they select the
one who is considered the most worthy, and
on the day of Pentecost, surrounded by her
young friends all dressed in white, she is escor-
ted by band of music and detachment of
the "Garde Rationale to the village church,
where, after the priest has addressed an exor-
tation to her and the audience, the mayor pla-
ces gold necklace about her neck, gives her
a number of other little Jewels, three hundred
francs in money, and finally places upon her
brow the sacramental crown of white roses.
"Rosieres' are of course in great demand, and
1t almost always happens that before the year
elapses they exchange their virginia. wreath
for the orange blossoms and the wedding ring.
The fortunate young lady this year was the
daughter of apoor widow with seven children;
and with such a combination of virtues as she
is supposed to have possessed, and the striking
beauty which she certainly did, will not prob
laby long continue a "demoiselle.p
This charming custom has been suspended
on two or three occasions on account Of con-
fict of opinion between the civil and religious
authorities in regard to the merits of the can
didates. In 1857 no coronation took place be-
cause the priest would not ofliciate. There
were two prominent candidates for the floral
crown. One was chosen by the council but
objected to by the priest on the ground that
she had not confessed at Easter. The council
who seemed to consider, that being good
daughter and sister, who by her labor suppor-
ted an aged mother, was sufficient to counter
balance this negect--would not give way to
the dictation of the cure, the claims Of whose
candidate were that she was "A constant at
tendant upon the religious services, and the
result was no "Rosiere" for the yong men of

as an incorruptble patriot, infexible Chief Mag

the matchless operations of our army and navy but
in the unparalleled fact that in the midst of this
gigantic rebellion our Government securities are

inasmuch as political organizations have become

enemies that its designs and tendencies were Sec
