It Was . sergeant old and gray,
Well singed and bronzed from siege and pillags,
Went trsmping in an arny's wake,
Along the turnpke OF the village.
For days and nights the winding host
Had through the little place been marching,
And ever loud the rustics cheered
Till every throat was hosrse and parching.
The squire and farmer, maid aud dame,
All took the sights electric stirring,
And hats were waved, and slaves were sung,
And 'kerchists white we're countless wh,ring.
They only Saw gxliast show,
VI heroes stawart under banners,
And In the fierce heroic glow
Twas theirs to yield but with hosannahs.
The sergeant heard the shrill hurrahs,
Whers he behind in step was keeping;
But glandug down beside the road
He saw little maid sit weeping.
"And how il this : he grufiy said,
moment psusing to regard her:
"Why weepese thou, my little chit -
And then she only cried the harder.
1--WE march two hundred thousand strong!
And that's sight, my baby beauty,
To quicken silence into song
Aud glorify the soldiers duty"
''It's very, very grand, know"
The little maid gave soft replying;
sand rather. moth,r Z, brother too,
All say 'hurrah' while l sm crying;
''But think--O, Mr.. Soldier, think,
Iiow many little sisters brot hers
Are going sli away to fight
And may be killed, Is we'll as others -
"why bless thee, child" the sergeant said,
Ills brSwny hand her curls caressing,
"'Tis left for little ones like you
To find that wars not all blessing"
An, "Blsss thee !" once again he cried.
i..n cleared his throat aud looked indignant
And marched away with wrinkled brow
10 stop the struggling tear benignant.
And still the ringing shouts went up
From doorway thatch and fields OF tillsge;
The pail behind the standard seen
By one alone, OF all the village.
The oak and cedar bend and writhe
When roars the wind through gap and braksn
But tits the teuderest reed OF all
That trembes first when earth Is shaken.

TO Scholars, Patrens and Teachers Of x.or.g.r

DEAR SCHOLARS We feel that We must
not leave you without farewell word.-
We would briefly say you have our heart.
felt thanks to- the diligence you have ever
manifested in your studies; for your cor
rect department; for the assistance which
you have rendered Us in the government Of
our school and for the respect which you
have always manifested to us and your
teachers and your friends.
Never can We forget you. Wherever W
may 90 our thoughts will often come back
to our little McGregor girls and boys. We
shall carry list Of your names with us,
so that We may be able in after years to
look upon the man and woman who were
once the girls and boys Of the McGregor
school. Remember, then, that we shall
watch your progress, and trust you will
not disappoint our hopes but grow up to
be useful and respected citizens.
But while we speak to our living school
we forget not those of your number who
have been laid in the cold and silent grave.
We miss from your number lovely Carrie.
with her winning smiles and loving heart;
little George, with his bright intellect and
his enquiring mind little Willie, with his
pleasant countenance and keen eye; little
Freddie, with his noble heart and winning
ways; and many others belonging to other
departments of our school. They have.
we trust, gone to the skyes to be little
angels around the throne of God. We
want you all to meet them there.
PArRoNs-We have now been with you
five years We commenced teaching alone
our school has increased in numbers 80
that now eight teachers are required. We
have met with many difficulties in pro.
ducing an organized school from the con-
fused mass with which We commenced.--
But We have not been alone in this matter;
you have aided us, and We would now
thank you for your liberal patronage, and
for the many encouragemsnts which W.
! have had amid the arduous duties Of the
schoolroom.
TEACHERS We have spent many happy
hours together but our path has net been
strewn entirely with flowers. Like all
others we have had our trials amid the du.
, ties Of the 'hoolroon. This you must
must always expect. 1t is our school life
But let not these difficulties discourage
you, for you will find them more or less in
any calling. There is no sphere in which
you can do more good. The true teacher
has large field of usefulness. To train
the immortal mind is your work. r..
sponsibilities Of crushing weight are rest.

poet, we would say, Valient be, and ever
dare to do the right, though all the gath.

thou fail on earth, thy well earned measure
Of applause to gain, that noble tribute from

CAMP OF TIE "GREY HouNDs," NEAR
HELENA, Ark, Oct. %, 1862.
Editors Times In and around Helena
times have been brisk for the last few
days; our pickets have had some half doz.
en-, or more skirmishes with the advance
posts Of Gen. Hindman, and on last Satur-
day week, they had what some would
term "a sharp brasil with the "gray
backs" or Hindman's rag myths that have
been lurking around our outposts for the
last month. They made dash upon some Of
tn" 4th Iowa cavalry that were on picket
duty, and killed and wounded over forty of
our men besides taking Major Rector pris.
oner and several Of his regiment with him.
The 1st Missouri, however came up Just
in the nick of time and put the rebels to
their heels in double quick time, captur-
ing their Lieut.. Colonel and eleven of their
men, who were brought safely into camp
1t is now reported that Gen. Hindman
has crossed the White river, and is within
forty miles Of our lines with twenty five or
thirty thousand men, with which he in
tends to annhilate the army of Gen. Carr,
which does not at the present time num-
Der ten thousand effective men, but we are
prepared for them and will endeavor to
give them a ,oarn reception, whenever they
think proper to honor us with call, and
We have no fear, but what we can success
fully resist any force that they can throw
against US at this place. As We now have
the aid Of several gunboats, mortar fleet,
and fort mounting seven guns,-four g.
Founders and three AZ Founders which with
the other forces makes our position very
formidable one. 1t is the opinion of your
correspondent that it would be worse than
madness for the "Sesh" to make any de-
monstration against us at this place, yet
| would not be surprised i: there would be
some desperate fighting at Helena before
this makes its erit out Of Dixie" as their
advance guards are now but three miles to
the front.
The 9th Iowa voted last Tuesday. There
was not very large vote cast, and what
was was most all Republican in fact there

which 342 We're cast for the Republican
ticket, and 32 for the Democratic ticket,
and d. A. Mahoney received one vote out
Of the whole number cast. Bremen county
has the honor Of that. The Greyhounds
have a poor opinion Of Mahoneyism, and

ton as is necessary for the resent.

Sailing Down MEAr-"W histlc at the
Plow," sends to the american Agrieult4y.
ist, his method of sailing meat, which hs
considers much preferable to the eommos
practice Of putting it into brine or pickle
at first. A bench is prepared with one
side lower than the other, inclining say
25e to 800 from level. The meat is cut
into pieces to suit convenience, fancy or
utility, and salt is thoroughly rubbed into
every part Of it-into all the joints, hol.
lows, etc--It is then laid fesh side down
upon the inclined bench, so that all water
may drain off. The rubbing in Of dry salt
is repeated three or four times during ten
or twelve days, after which it is laid down
in pickle in the usual manner. Mr.. T.
claims that by this dry sailing the blood
and other fluids are drained OF, and the
permanent brine is cleaner, sweeter, and
will preserve the meat longer, and in
much more palatable condition. We can
scarcely decide upon the value Of this plan.
In cool weather, or in cool room, it would
work. The meat would be apt to spoil it
exposed long in warm air.-ED,

HEADING LATE CABBA GEs.-It sometimes
happens, either through the lateness of tho
season, or neglect in early planting, that
cabbages do not head completely beiors
cold weather sets in. These are often fed
out to cattle or throw away, while BY n
little care they might be made to head dur.
ing the Fall and early Winter. To accom-
plish this, proceed as follows: 1st, make 4
wide trench, and transplant the cabbages
into it, setting them together in a triple
row. At each end Of the row, drive in
crotched stake, and lay rail from one to,
the other, to form ridge pole a foot or
more above the cabbages. Make roof Of
old boards or slabs, one end resting on the
pole, and the other on the ground so as to
shed water. Over this, lay little straw,
six or more inches thick, and when Winter
sets in, put on as many inches of earth.
making the surface smooth and hard, so a.
to be nearly rain-proof At each end Of
the row, leave a ventilating hole. which
must be loosely filled with straw in cold
weather. Cabbages so managed, will con.
tnue to grow, and will fill up their heads
before mid winter. When taken out in
Spring, they will be tender, crisp, and
beautifully blanched.-Am AZ.
