MARRIED-At the residence of the brides

A. KINKEAD to Miss DEBORAH EVANS, both of
Ebensburg.
So we go! First one-then another
drifting slowly and surely, day by day,
into the maelstrom of matrinony Pretty
soon, we shall have occasion to ask ourself
-"The friends of our youth-where are
they The participants in our pleasures,
in those halcyon days of old
When youth was bold,
And Time stole wings to speed it:
And youth ne'er knew how fast Time flew
Or, knowing, did not heed it
Whittier have they vanished ?" In this
event, in all probability, Echo would feel
called upon to answer-"Gone and got
married i''
Nevertheless, we hereby tender our
heartiest congratulations to the happy
couple, hoping they may enjoy an endless
career of prosperity and sunshine. And
furthermore, when the rose-tinted dream
begins to pale before the accumulation of
the musty cobwebs of Time, may their
love for each other undergo no change
but only grow the deeper and stronger.
Many thanks for the kind forget-me- not.

the Greeks, and with justice we recognize
and partly seek to initiate, the vigorous
gymnastic and other means which they
employed to secure it But probably we
should make a fatal error if we omitted
from our calculation the hearty and gem
erous earnestness with which the highest
subjects of art, speculation and politics
were pursued by them. Surely in their
case the beautiful and energetic mental
life was expressed in the athletic aud
graceful frame. : And were it mere ex-
trayagance to ask whether some part of
the lassitude and Weariness, of life, of
which we have so much incur day, might
be due to lack of mental occupation on
worthy subjects, exciting aud repaying a
exercise on lower ones2 Whether an en-
grossment on matters which have not
substance enough to justify or to satisfy
the mental grasp, be not at the root of
some part Of the maladies which affect our
mental convalescence? ANY one Who
tries it soon finds out how wearying, how
disproportionately exhausting, is an over
dose of light literature compared with
an equal amount Of time spent on real
work. OF this we may be sure, that the

wherever their armies have penetrated.
Their hellish passions not satiatel with
these acts of fendish brutality, are seeking
further qualification by emHneipatiugit the
slaves and putting arms into their hands
to inaugurate q war of such atrocity as to
make devils stand aghast at its horrors.
Such being our enemies, and such their
purposes, bold that by the Jaws of God
aud man, il is our duty to slAy them by
all legitimate means in our power. We
have conducted the war on tue highest
principles of Christian nations. Our enc
mica have adoped the Camanche code in
all except scalping. There is but one mode
OF putting an end to such a contest and
such a system. We must rise as one man
and slay the invader whenever aud where
eyeriWe find him. The honor of our wives
and daughters, the sauctity Of our homes,
the liberty Of our children mHst;be defend
ed by the men of the South, or all is lost.
We all desire peace, and yet their is but
one mode by which it can be esecured-the
destruction of the Yankee armies. We can
have peace by this means, and that right
speedily, if every man will do his duty.
We are infinitely stronger as a nation to-
day than we were one year ago. Our in
dependence is as certain as any future
event can be, and the time for its recogni-
ton la matter perfectly under our con-
troll. Heyery man capable of bearing arms
in the Confederacy, cOuscript or not, would
resolve to devote himself to the holy cause
of freeing his country, our armies would be
disbRnded and we should be free aud in
dependent before the 18th of August. |
therefore appeal to the men of the West to
unite with me at once in the effort to de-
liver our native mountains from the pollu-
tion that has been brought upon them. It
is only men want; men who will pull
trigger on a Yankee with as much alacrity
as they would on mad dog men whose
consciences wont be disturbed by the sight
of aVHudal carcass. don't want nervous,
sqeamish individuals to join me-they will
be safer at home where the women can pro-
tect them and the cbildren, and calm their
nerves when alarming news is circulating.
Ny headquarters will be at Staunton for
awhile,whe individuals can join the corps

rewards of victory. .5es,si
1t is bad enough that private citizens
should entertain such opinions, the effect
.ot which, If carried out; would be to pro-
long the war till 1t could be brought to an
end precisely satisfactory to the interests
of treason; but that officers of the army
should set up such opinions, and presume
to act upon them, Is monstrous. Yet we
need not the casein question to prove that
this is the way in which too many of those
who have been entrusted with commands
in our gallant armies propose to carry on
the war. ltis time they were weeded out
of the service. The men who want to car
ry on the war to suit the South, should
follow tHeir sympathies, and go to the
South. They have no proper place in the
armies of the Republic. They have prac-
ticed a deception and wrong in accepting
the commissions under which they are un-
willing to 6ght for the speedy suppression
