led for the original selections which they
had also been ordered to prepare; with the
same result--blank blank until at last
a rather prominent individual, and literary
man, arose and stated that he had been
chosen to prepare piece, and cOuM not
get time; but he had spoken to friend
of his concerning the. fact, and he, (the
said friend) had volunteered TO interest
them with an address. Well, this said
friend, somewhat grim and ancient look
ing disciple, stepped forward to the ros
trum with overcoat thrown around shoul-
ders, and soon not only interested, but
very much djS-interested the Convention .,
with an essay from the Nea0 York Ledger,
written, as he said, by himself. Another
Society was then called upon, but as they
had no newspapers with them, they took
their excuse. The committee on speakers
failed to report; when tall important
looking member moved that some one of
the delegates present, be requested to ad
dress the convention, and he himself was
invited. He got up and politely excused
himself, anil q vOte NJ JU4a"hS eoaS tendered

A lengthy discussion followed after which
the question was called for, and the motion
was carried by large majority. Thus
the "Literary Union" has gone dead
sunk into oblivion. Peace to its ashes.

city. The sight of the earthworks caused
a little palpitation Of the heart, for we did
not know what were behind them but
surprise soon took its place, as we found
them deserted and the guns removed
Winchester then was ours, without the
necessity of firing gun. Jacksons rear
guard left the place as we entered it. He
had about 5000 troops, the most of whom
had retreatcd the night before. They
took with them about $50 of the most
prominent Union citizens. Enough were
left though, to show how strong the Union
feeling here is. The ladies especially were
demonstrative in their joy. The flags they
displayed looked as if they had been ox-
humed from Plutos dominions. One es-
pecially,a large silk hag excited the cheers
of every regiment which passed it.
Many who left the City through fear
have returned, and business is again re.
sumed with increased activity. One of
the strongest arguments against secession, is
the contrast between the state of business
noO, and two weeks ago.
To day two sections of our battery, 200
cavalry, aud 500 infantry made recon
noisancc towards Strasburg, in order to
feel the enemy. About two miles out we
encountered their pickets and drove them
in. As Newtown "a place where jackson
was said to have Brigade) they made q
stand, but two shells from the left section
caused them to break and run. We ad,
yanccd cautiously into the village, as it
was reported they had several pieces of ar
tillery waiting for us. They retreated

Deor Sir. You are aware that at one
time there existed Society, called 'EThc
Literary Union of Columbia, Montour, and
adjacent Counties" This society, accor.
ding to its Constitution, met three times
year, as follows: The last Saturday in
April, August, and December. Since its
last meeting in December, l have been
frequently asked, "what were tie proceed
ings of that meeting ?" "and why were
they not published ?" For the benefit Of
the numerous readers of your widely cir
cllating paper, propose giving as far as
my memory will recall them, a brief synop.
sis of the proc iings of the meeting held
in Bloomsbury, December 2sth 1861 and
which will, 1 hope, satisfactorily explain
the whole affair.
The delegates from the various Literary
and Debating Societies asscwbled at the
Academy, about o'clock, p. m, and as
the President and Vice President were
both absent, the meeting was cGlled to or
der by the Secretary. On motion, Pres
ident pro tenn was appointed, and the fun
commenced. The gentleman in the chair,
not knowing the regular order of business,
(from the fact that there had never teen
any regular ordor,) was obliged to take
things just as they came. A commit =
being appointed for the purpose, reported
five Societies as legally entitled to voice
in the Convention. The minutes of the
previous meeting were called for, and the
Secretary read from that, Loyer-9-the-
"Aaggr" paper, known to you by the
name Of Sm&t Machine; a lengthy med
ley of minutes, proceedings, &C., of the
meeting held at Millville, CT the Lass SaS
urday in August, 1861, which L believe
was adopted as read. He also presented
another set of minutes, proceedings, reso
lutions, &C., &c., Of SpeClm meeting helc
at the above named place, some time pre-
vious but the Convention declared sale
meeting illegal, unconstitutional and ou
Of order, and the minutes were rejected.
The various Societies were then oalle(
upon to read the essays, the subjects o
which, at the last meeting, had been as
signed them; but the thing was a blank

A COUNTRY HOME.

on give me home in the county wide,
And seat by the farmers wood freside,
Where the fire burns bright,
On frosty night
Where the jest the song, and the laugh are free
Oh the farmers home is the home for Inc.
oh give me a home in the country wide,
Where the earth comes out as a bushing BRIDE
When her buds and flowers,
In the bright spring hours,
Her bridal song ringing from fresh leaved trees,
And melody floats OH the perlumed brseze.
in summer scat in a shady nook,
And close by the side Of pulling brook,
Where the violet grows,
Or the pale swamp rose,
Painting, sick, meath the suns scorching beam,
Dips her pale petals in the cooling stream.
Oh! give me home in The country wide,
In the golden days of farmers pride,
When his barns are filed
From the field he's titled
And he feels that his yearly task is done,
And smiling at winter, he buckons him on
