THE SOLDIERS FRrESD.-Mr. Fernando PAGE
late Of Company X, 81 Michigan Regiment, who
was deprived Of both bic feet, above the ankles, at
the siege Of Yorktown, by rhell, walked into THs
TRIBUNE Office last evening, with as much appasn.
ease az though he Lad not suffered such terrible
loss. Indeed, but for The information which he vol.
untcered, few would have suspected that bis neatly
booted feet were tmbertoe and Bis servieeable legs
a wooden legacy from Uncle Sam. As a specimen OF
what may be done by mechanical ingenuity to sup
ply the los Of natural limbs, this sample Of The
Landiwork Of DIR. Palmer is eminen,ly satisfactory.
Mr.. Page lad used his limbs but week, yet be
walked to and fro, and up aud up and down stairs,
as if he had quite forgotten bis triaing mishaP at
Yorktown; he thought he might readily run over to
the Park ard get his 800 bounty as new recruit,
and for all wo know he went and did il.

Communication.

4 dctcstablc scandal has been pub.
lishcd in our town, which has furnished
u subject of conversation for our citi.
zcns. already sufficiently excited by
the distant sound of our artillery and
the cannonading OF the cncmy's gun
boats. That % young and worthy
priest, to whom is attached the double
interest of well known and modest
vi tue. and Of u life which will be cx-
tinguIshcd before the time, has been
publicly insultcd; or that scxagenary
bishop should have been disgraced by
the hand Of n scoundrel, III all this,
there is nothing new-cvery where and
always will be found obscene scamps
who are actnatcd by "a copstant desire
Of cspattcring with their mud the
faces Of those whose professions are u
cheek on th'ir ignoble passions, or
WHO force them to raise the hypocriti-
cal mask which they seek to wear
with this pc have nothing TO do at
present.
But how sI NJ we characterize that
most infamous nt all iliamics. when to
glnt hatred or revenge, a scoun,rcl has
gIarod to soil with his filth, pure young
girls and virtuuuS matronS, dcfcncelcss
women Every language has name,
md all laws u punishment for murder,
bu. what name shall lc given to the
crime of Il, ) sconndrcl? Or what law
has ever exacted chastiscmcnt equal
to its crinlality?
W" are told that our worthy mayor
has offered Il reward Of $500 to any
one who will inform on the guilty
wretch. Men capable Of such base
ness are 50 few, that it will not be
difficult to point out the real pcrpc-
traitor. 1T can be none but u new
conner among us, who is continuing
here series Of viIlainy commenced
elsewhere. The difficulty is to deter
mine how to treat this odious scoun-
drci. To be whipped at the public
market house would not be enough:
the rope is reserved for the assassin
but The crime Of this cowardiy reptile
is worse than assassination. Would
it not be best to give him a chance for
the gallows i'll his own native land |
provided there be i land wllisil claims
the nativity OF such monsters.

FoG THE Usios.

The cnsanguincd battle field of Shiloh
will be memorable in the annals Of
Natchitoches parish, from the fact that
it has been stained by the blood and
illustrated by the chivalric daring and
gallantry her sons. The name will ever
hang about the portals OF her heart and
be sweet yet mourntul music to her soul !;
and when the truthful historian shall
come with appointed pen, to weave
the strands Of its stirring incidents III
to the enduring chord Of history the
laurel and the cypress will be closely
blended. Alas F.! that military fame
should be baptised i'll the blood Of the
brave! Alas! that the shouts of vic
tory and the noble Civilizations which
stir generous minds to praise and ad-
miration cd mani y actions and heroic
deeds should lie mingled with the wall
of bercaved hearts over their loved
ones lost! The bloody, but glittcring
record hangs at every door, and names
as familiar as household words III
our community arc engraved upon it
deathless characters. Martyrs and
heroes stand side by side.

His foot was i'll the stirrup's hold,
Ills banner hoated wide, and far.
And DER the dreary waste Of SHOWS,
His eye was cleaning like star,
i" On, on my braves with trustfu hearts,
For honor, victory and France,
Dream if We WILL hnt let il he
OF laurels won by sword and lance,
The hoary mounts uprosc above
The lofty landmarks Of the earth,
Unchanged, interchangeable and strong
As at the young creations birth
Amid their holds, an army passed
/ Till every narrow ,leiile bor2,
| \ thousand bounding hearts, among
| Their snow-wrcaths dim and hoar
| And were the victor's laurcS won?
The Russian waitcl them with fire
And Moscow lit with vengcfu hand,
The soldiers funcrcal pyrc.
Once more the mountain tc med with life
And cold and famine walked beside.
Till corslcted and hclme,l, at last,
The weary soldier fell and died
There was a wall through sunny France,
\ sound of mourning and of woe,
\ requiem for the gallant dead
4 dirgc for those who early 90.
The maiden waited in her bower.
The peasant by his cottage door,
The noble in his palace hall,
For those who went, to come no more.
Alas for love, alas for bliss,
The cheek and brows which they had kissd
We're icy as the snowy shroud
Which oor them spread its silver mist.
The war horse lay beside the dead,
The plumcd helm, and shining lance,
The bugle's ringing sound had fled,
Alas for them, the youth of France.
And where was he whose power had hushed
The song among the VINEYARDS gay,
And thrown mourning pail, where once
The golden flush of sunlight lay?
There was brief upspringing flight,
A day of glory and of power,
Then sank those wings, then died their might,
And chains and darkness were their dover.
And such is fame-and such the fate
Of freedoms dire, and ruthless foes,
When thus her children watch and wait,
To strike their strong and vengcfnl blows,
The heavier for their gathered strength,
The stronger, fiercer for their wrath,
They immolate themselves at length
TO sweep the invader from their path

ceiyed circular from the Patent Office,
which says =
4" 1t may be we'll to mention that the kind
of Cotton adapted for cultivation in the
Middle States is what is known as the
green seed.
1t should be planted from the lst to the
10th of May. Plow the ground we'll then
harrow it. Mark it out in rows five feet
apart. II the land is thin, put some good
fertilizer in the row before planting
Put five seed in each hill the hills one
foot apart in the row. Cover it lightly with
hoe. When four inches high, thin ii out
TO one stalk in hill, and cultivate it as you
would corn.
A light alluvial soil, with a southern ex-
posure, is best adapted to the growth of
Cotton"
The New Castle County Agricultural So

which may be procured on application to
