vanced on the enemy at II O'clock this morn
ing After sharp skrmish, which lasted
three hours we drove the enemy two miles
beyond Pennington, and beyond the bridge.
Five thousand troops were engaged on each
side. The Federal cavalry charged Robinson's
Battery, but were repulsed in great confusion,
their riderless horses running to our liae. Our
loss was small. Major Iugraham and Captain
Leftwtch, of Gen. Van Dorn's staff, were dam
gerously wounded. We captured large
amount of clothing and knapsackt. The ene-
my's loss in killed and wounded was heavy.
Ady 9.-I have just returned from the 'front.'.
The enemy was driven across Seven Mile .
Greek, running like sheep. 1t appears that
Gen. Pope's division of the Federal army alone
occupied Pennington. Gen.: Halleck, with
the main part of the army, is still on the river.
The Corfederates loss slight. The Federal
retreat was so rapid that we were unable to
capture many prisoners. Gems. Price and Van
u born led the attack We captured the tele-
graph office at Farmington.-The Confederates
are returning to Corinth. It is reported that
the Confederate forces operating down the
Tennessee river have captured large numbers
If prisoners and large amount of property at

SORE THRoArs SALT AS REMEDY in
these days, when diseases of the throat are so ,
prevalent and in many cases 60 fatal, the use
OF common salt is recommended as an efectual
remedy. We commenced by using it three
times day-mornng noon, and night We
dissolved large table spoon sfull of salt in
about half a tumbler full of cold water. With
this we garged the throat most thoroughly
before meal time The result has been that
during the entire winter we were not only
free from the usual coughs and colds to whiclL
SO far as my memory extends, we have always
been subject but the dry, hacking cough has
entirely disappeared. We attribute this salts
factory result entirely to the salt gargle.
YANKEE ANrlo1pA11oNs.-A New York pa
per Of the 4th inst. says:
The probsole opening Of all Of the ports at
an early day, from Richmond to New Orleans,
has caused an excitement among the salt spec
ulatcrs, which is to be equalled by the excite
ment among the Boston and New York ice,
merchants. Applications are pouring into the
Department for the privilege of sending South
vessels freighted with ice and salt. The pro-
rc,osed tariff of 25 cents per sack and ls cents
in bulk per cwt. on salt and the demand for
the saline staple in the Southern markets,
will. no doubt cause an upward tendency:
Salt and ice are two commodities which will
nrovs great blessings in the South at the pre-
| sent time. That is Yankee, all over.

My Darling.


Out in III the darkness, blinded by pain,
[ reach for my darling, in vain. in vain
For the death angel far over the river,
Carried my baby forever and ever.
Baby, OH! bnhy, were you afraid,
While in the arms OF tee angel you laid
Did he Caress you, and kiss you to sleep
On the iohg journey, for fear you would weep?
Does the dear Jesus, now, as of old,
Take little children into His told
Plead with Him, little one, that you may come
In my souls dream land sometimes to roam,
Then shall my spirit, forgetting its pain,
Clasp you with rapture, again and again;
And when each morrow comes, day after day,
Ill take up my burden and search for the way.
At dawn never more her blue eyes shine
Out of the darkness, searching for mine,
Fairy tones, lsping word after word
In the hearts chamber may only be heard.
The little feet wearied, and day after day
Struggled, how vainly, to keep on the way;
Then in its WEAKNESS. seeking for rest,
Sank the hot forehead, close to my breast.
Tiny hands gathered the snow-drop no more;
Lone grew the butter-cup, close by the door
Weeping, the violots cIuug to the ground,
Their beauty unheeded-their tseasUres unbound
She lay on my bosom, all wordless with pain,
But kissed me, and kissed me, again and again
One long last look-the last-oh the last,
And out Of our home cherub she passed
Softly the sunlight stole in the room,
Lifting the shadows out of the gloom,
AL save the one that tell on my heart,
No light had reached it-how could it depart
called her my own, forgetting that He
Who asked for her now lent her to me,
When bright angel bearing His love,
Said that my darling would lead me above.

what Temperance Cam Do.

In Mrs. Halls book on Ireland, occurs the fol-
lowing passage which person will hardly read
without emotion:
We entered cottage enc day, in the suburbs
of Cork q young woman was knitting stockings
at the door. It was as neat and comfortable as
any in the most prosperous district of England.
We tell her brief story in her own words, as
nearly as we caa recall then: my husband is
a wheelwright,a and has always earned his guinea
3 week; he was good orkman, but the love
for the drink was strong IN him, and it wasn't
often he brought me home more than five shil
hugs out of his one pound on Saturday night,
aud it broke my heart to see the children too
ragged to go to school, to say nothing of the
starved look they had out of the little could
give them. Well, God be praised, he took the
pledge, and the next Saturday he laid twenty
one ohilings upon the chair you sit upon. Oh,
didn't give thanks upon my bended knees that
night, still was fearful it wouldn't last, and
spent no more than the five shiings used to,
saying to myself the money will be more want
ed than it is now. Well, the next week he
brought me the same, and the next aud the next
untl eight weeks had passed; and glory to
God there was no change for the bad in my
husband and all the while he never asked me
why there was nothing better for him out OF his
eatnings 30 / felt there no fear for him.
and the ninth week when he came to me, had
this table bought and these six chairs, four for
the children and one for himself; and | was
dressed in new gown, and the children all had
new clothes and shoes and stockings, and upon
this chair put new suit, aud upon his plate
put the bill and receipt for them all just the
eight sixteen shilling the cost, that had saved
out of his wages, not knowing what might hap
pen, and that always went for drink. And he
cried, good lady and good gentleman, he cried
like a baby. but twas with thanks to God and
now where's the healthier man than my husband
in the whole county of Cork or happier wife
than myself, or decenter or better fed children
than my own.

moment, and of course can't go into details -
Here is the evening paper, however, which
contains the latest news"
The stranger extends his hand gracefully,
and taking the newspaper, ne glances at 1t
moment, and then turns to leave the office with
the paper in his hand. The editor feels 1t his
duty to utter the appended remarks:
Look here, sir! We have careless habit
in this Office OF charging small amount Tor
these papers! It's way we have which helps
us to live"
The stranger looks surprised, and responds
Charge. do you7 Why gracious! l tho't

siWell sir retorts the editor with some
aciditv in his tone, 1--WE can't afford to let you
have that document. II you cant afford to pay
five cents to crafty your desire to have the Ia
test war news, you have no particular business
