DEPARTURES.


4 Southern "Mammy."
We are requested to make room for the fol-
lowing picture between white child and her
dark-skinned NANNY"
"Oh nanny, have you heard the news|
Thus spake a Southern child
As in the nurses aged face
She upward glanced and smiled.
"What news YOU mean, my little one?
Ii must be mighty fine,
To make my darling's face red,
Her sunny blue eyes shine.
"Why Abram Lincoln, don't you know,
The Yankee President,
Whose ugly picture once we saw,
When up to town we went.
"NNeIl, he is going to free you all,
And make YOU rich and grand,
And you'll be dressed in silk and gold,
Like the proudest In the land.
"A gilded coach shall carry you
Where'er YOU wish to ride;
And, nanny, all your work shall be
Forever laid aside"
The eager speaker paused for breath,
And the old nurse said,
While closer to her swarthy cheek
She pressed the golden head:
"My little misSus stop and res
You talking mighty tas,
jest look up dere, and tell me what
You see in yonder glass?
"You sees old mammy's wrinkled face,
AS black as any coal;
And underneath her handkerchief
Whole heaps of knotty wool.
"My darlin's face is red and white,
Her skin is soft and fine,
And on her pretty little head
De yaller ringlets shine.
"NIy chile, who made dis difference
Twixt NANNY and twixt YOU?
You reads the dear Lords blessed book,
And you can tell me true.
'De dear Lord said it must be so;
And, honey | for one,
Wild thankful heart will always say,
His holy will be done.
IL tanks mas Linkum all de same,
But when | wants for free,
I'll ask the Lord of glory,
Not poor buckra man like he.
And as for gilded carriages,
Dey's nothin' tall to see
Ny maSsa's coach what carries him,
Is good enough for me.
And honey, when your nanny wants
To change her homespun dress,
She'll pray like dear old missus,
To be clothed with Righteousness.
My works been done dis many day,
And now taxes my ease,
\ watin for de Massa's call
,Jes when de AiasSa please.
And when at las de times done come,
And poor old nanny dies.
Your own dear mothers soft white hand
Shall close these tired old eyes.
"De dear Lord Jesus soon will call
Old nanny home TO him,
And he can wash my guilty soul
From ebry spot of sin.
And az his feet shall lie down.
Who died and rose for me;
And den, and not till den, me chile,
Your nanny will be free.
Come, little miSsus, saw Your prayers,
Let old mas Linkum lone,
The debil knows who blbngs to him,
And he'll take care of his own"

The Baltimore American referring to The late

fifteen miles distant, is probably designed. "
A letter from New York says that the Con-
federate prisoners lately at Governors Island,
New York, will be taken to pea Patch Is
land, in the Delaware river, where three or
four hundred Of their comp panions were taken
in the Cahawba two Or three days ago. The

many shells into the forest on the south bank
Of the James river, but did no damage to any
human being Or any habitation of man.
The cannon captured by the Confederates
during the recent battles were all brought into
Richmond, numbering about twenty-three
pieces, some Of them hovitzers, and three ar
my rifed guns. They were Hight pieces, and
with the exception of the howitzers, and one
English gun, were sent to the foundry to be
recast
The Federal and Confederate pickets came
into collision at Williamsburg on Friday, where
three of the latter are said to have been killed

unceasing, but that the Confederate loss thus
far was only six killed and one wounded. The
inhabitants had taken refuge in the woods
The Confederates express the opinion that
Vicksburg cannot be taken.
Fort Darling has been greatly strengthened,
and the batteries are iron-clad. A whole divi-

the James river on pontoon bridge, to assist
in its defense against any land force.

The Richmond Despatch Of Monday says -
1T is not believed that Gen. Mcclellan can be
induced to make all attack upon the Confede
rate forces, but it is cOnjectured he may attempt
to throw his forces on the south side Of the

AN EDITOR ExCITED.-Our neighbor Pros
ser of the Mt. Vernon Advocate is very in
dignant at the Surveyor of this port, for
having seized demJohn of Irish whisky

chased for "Christmas purposes" Prosser
had been promised certain number OF
punches from the aforesaid Irish whisky,
and its failure to arrive and the Illustration

that he is guilty of writing the following
paragraph:
John B. Gardner, an old resident OF Posey
county, well known, not only in Wander
burg county, but in Posey, and for three
years Treasurer of the latter county, a man
whose Union sentiments are undoubJed,
was debarred from having shipped from
Evansville to Mt. Vernon two gallons of
Irish whisky for Christmas purposes, the
article being considered contraband by that
pink of perfection-Mujor Robinson, port
Surveyor of Evansville. Things have come
10 pretty pass when tbs citizens of Posey
county cannot receive small packages
from a neighboring town without the con-
sent of an upstart who is making, perhaps,
from twenty to thirty dollars per day by
an assumption of power totally unauthor-
lied and illegal.

by Great Britain of theory which she has
always opposed. They intend to hold the
British government to the present settle
ment, and it may be taken for granted that
the last American merchantmen has been
overhauled by British cruisers on the high
seas, for any purpose, unless the vessel is
actually engaged in running blockade
with contraband goods. This fact we con-
slider settled. In order, however, that it
may be settled beyond a peradventure we
trust that but few months will elapse before
the rebellion will be overthrown, our army
in the highest state of efficiency. and our
navy increased to that magnitude our skill,
enterprise and resources demands. We
want no more temporising and delay. Our
army is large enough, and well enough
equipped and disciplined, to accomplish the
work for which it is designed. If our COM
handing Generals are incompetent to man
age the mighty host and lead it on to vie
tory, the people expect them TO resign. If
they DO nothing-not even resign-they
will be removed. That is the long and
short of it. Our complications with Euro
pean powers are too delicate 10 keep up q
contractors war at this juncture, at home.

Editor Of the Journal:
SIR: Enquiries have been made touch
Jag the lawfulpess of importing sugar and
cotton from the disloyal to the loyal States,
and have been informed that a few par
GELS of each of these articles have quite re-
Gently made their appearance upon the
border of the Ohio River, having been
wagoned through the State of Kentucky
A little reflection will convince any 10y
al citizen, that such trade is unlawful
and that ii cannot be permitted either in
large or small quantities. 1t should be
constantly borne in mind, that all inter
course Nth the rebels for the purposes Of
trade IS strictly prohibited by our govern
ment.
The Atlantic ports Of the insurgent
States, being under a close blockade, the
rebels are prevented from sending their
products to a foreign market, but if they
shall be permitted TO send them inland
to the Ohio River, what shall hinder their
being shipped to New York and thence to
Europe2
Such a trade would afford them aid and
comfort, which no loyal citizen would
knowingly give.
Respectfully,
Al ROBINSON, Surveyor
