CHRISTMAS MORN.

The morning stars together sang,
When the Creators work was done,
The heavens with halleluiahs rang,
From rising 10 the setting sun.
But far more glorious WAS the soug,
Which ushered in that Christmas morn,
When from on high the angelic throng
Came down to announce Saviour boin
Angel to angel sent the sound,
Whilst seraph giowei with holy FIRE,
From orb-to orb I was echoed round
By every Cherub of tine choir.
"Glory 10 GOD and peace on earth"
Was the inspiring theme OF praise,
Which to their joyful songs gave birth
On this most sacred day OF dnys.

THE HORSES OF THE ARMY OF TIE pO-

REPORT OF JOHN 8. RAREY TO GENERAL HALLEoK
Washington Dec, 19.--G neral Pafsuaut tU
your orders visited The Army vf the Potomac
on the 18th instant, 10 inspect the bUrses and
mules in the cavalry, artillery and teams OF the
army.
The movement Of troops on that day, and the
engagement at fredericksburg that followed du-
ring the nix days that renamed with tho army,
gave me but linle opportunity to see the uau-
ngement of the horse department in detail,
though had m opportunity TO see them on duty.
Having gone there very uuiagorably impressed
with accounts drawn from the dark side Of the
picture by those taking the rejected and disabled
horses Of the army az their stand point, found
hese animals in better condition than had ex
pecled. The mule leans, with some exceptions,
were Ia good condition, and doubt If ever an
army, uhder similar circumstances, was better
provided for in this respect.
The cavalry horses suiier most many of them
thin and scarcely fit for se,yice. The duties that
they huye to perform-oxoursions tnG. some
times require from "a t. 36 hours without food or
rest, the heavy weight they have to carry, and
the unskilful manner in which they are ridden,
makes il almost impossible TO be otherwise, ex-
cept they were treated with the greatest care.
The artillery suffer much, but are a grade better
than the cavalry.

more diligeut looking after Of this detail by
officers in charge would be highly beneficial, the
good effects Of which is seen lu some instances
where the diligence has been exercised with
judgment by officers attending to this important
but much neglected duty.
Every man who is permitted to ride horse
should be compelled by duty, If he has not the
humanity and moral principe, to see that the
horse has every care in his power to give-that
he is properly groomed, watered and fed.
The manner in which the food is given, where
only suIficiency is allowed, is highly important,

lOns Of the horse, to be left off when the saddle
is removed, would be Of great service. The
Arabs, who live more with tho horse than any
other people, and who are older 10 horsemansbip
than any other nation in the world, never re-
move the saddle from the horses back when on
a journey. Their saddles have always blankets
attached that cover the back aud loius of the
horse. They argue that this vital part, when
heated by riding. should never be made to feel
the effects Of cold.
As one who loves the horse who appreciates
his intelligence and keen sensibilites, and car
anticipate his wants, | do most keenly deplors
the detection Of spirit suffering and loss Of life

Curious Incident Of The War.

Captain Bolght, Of Co, IL. 23l Kentucky Regi
ment formerly resident OF this ci'y, and who
has just returned on short fdrlough, relates to
us the following curious aneoiOte Of The war, for
the veracity Of which be himself will answer;
During the retreat of the army of Kirby Smith
from Cumberland Gap, the regiment 10 which he
belonged was in the van of the Federal army.
One morning when the regiment was about 2G
miles east OF the Wild Cat Mountains, they were
surprised to file Of ten mcn, al OF them

man marching in their rear with masket 10

lines she coolly gave them up to the officer com
manding as prisoners In accounting for their
ptnre, she said that her husband had Joined a
military company in the Federal service, aud

secessiOnists had come into the huuse that morn

them TO roast by the FIRE. They theh proceeded
10 dispose Of the things aruuuu the house. taking
up the carpets, and constructing horse blankets
out Of them.
Thty next perpetrated other atrocities of II
destructive and objectionable character, which
had tho effect of making tho lady of the house
'funorsly Wild" as the Captain expresses it,
and she determined that such outrageous conduct
SHOULD not go unpunished, She accordingly
carried away their muskets to place of safety,
rtseryng two for her own use, uud then going "a
the room in which they were rcgaling themselves
on her detnnct chickens, she informed them that
they were her prisoners One Of them jumped
up to seize her when she leveled her gun at him
aud fired, causing him to bite the dust, which
lay thickly strewed on the carpelless floor
Throwing away the now useless gun she took
the other in her hand and o,deied ihe remaining
