The Boston Journal publishes a let
ter, written by distinguished gentle
man In Washington, in which he says:

the frivolous pursuit of pleasure, and
TO run itself out in dances and balls.
There was no ball or dancing at the
White House, and surely the attempt
made by Mrs. Lincoln to admit the
throngs OF brave and distinguished pat
riots and their wives and dauohters to
the civilities of repast at the Presi-
dents house, to make the acquaintance
OF each other and the public officers en-
gagged in the civil administration, under
circumstances making it notable and
agreeable, ought not to be considered
as mere frolic and amusement. Gen.
jackson acted on the idea that all those
who came to Washington, and were
really the representative men of the
country, whether IL or out of Congress
civil or military men-were entitled
to the courtesy and hospitality of the
President. These could not be extend

invitations. He, therefore, filed his
house occasionally with large evening
parties, and the large room for diu;nS
was spread for grand repast, con.
stantly renewing, as the guests filing
the table at one time receded and
opened the way for another. The old
man told me that he left his farm with
an outfit of five thousand dollars. and
he left for his Hermitage again with
barely enough of his 5000, 900 to pay
his expenses back. He felt that his
salary was meant to enable him to per-
form his Executive functions, and to
accompany their discharge with those
attentions toward the personages of
our and other nations due to them and
those they represent, according to the
accustoms of all civilized countries.
From Polk down to Buchanan the sue.

fourths of his salary stuffed in bis bags.

Mrs. Lincoln intended to invite ON
successive occasions all our army off

Particulars of the Battle a, Sugar Creek.
SPRINGFIELp. Mo. M.r,h :,

A special to the Missouri Republican
says: "a messenger arrived at 10
O'Clock last night bringing additional
news of the battle. The engagement
took place on Little Sugar Creek, FIVE
mile this side of the stream of the same
name, when skirmish took place. On
the march down, in anticipation of an
attack on the south, Gen. Curtis ordered
the trains to be drawn up on the north
side, but unexpectedly the attack was
commenced on the rear north of our
army by from 1900 to 1000 rebel
cavalry. Gen. Sigel, with eight hun
dred unprotected the train for several
hours, alternately retreating and stop
ping to hold the rebels in check, while
the trains pushed backwards to the
main body of the army. While thus
engaged, Sigel was three times surroun-
ded by the rebcls, bnt cut his way
through each time. The principal
fighting on Thursday. was done by
Sigel in this way. On Friday the en-
gagement became general and contin-
ned so throughout the day, the officers
behaving with much galantry. The
most exposed position was occupied by
Col. Carr's division, and the greatest
loss suffered by them. Col. Dodge's
brigade, of this division, consisted of
the 4th Iowa, 1st Iowa battery, 35th
Illinois, Col. Phelps regiment, and oath
Missouri. The Cd brigade, under Col.
Van Dover, of the 9th Iowa, consisted
OF his own regiment, the Dubuque
battery and Col. Carr's regiment of
of cavalry. A letter from Col. Carr
says the losses in the 4th and 9th Iowa,
35th Illinois and 25th Missouri are from
$50 to 500 in each regiment killed and
wounded. But 500 of the oath Missouri
were present, but they lost 29 killed
and large number wounded, 18th and
18th Missouri, Sd Iowa Cavalry, and
9Th Indiana lost about SO each, lst and
Cd Iowa batteries lost about 20 each.
Among the wounded are Gen. Asboth,
in the arm, Col. Carr, also in the arm,
Lieut. Col. Galligan, Lieut. Col. Heron
and Major Coyle, of the 9th Iowa.
Besides being wounded, Col. Heron
was taken prisoner. Col. Dodge had
three horses shot under him. Lieut.
Smith, of the Cd Ohio Battery, who
was taken prisoner, jumped from a
wagon TO make his escape and was
killed.
The rebel officers killed and wound
ed were Brig. Gen. McCulloch killed,
Brig. Gen. Slack dangerously wound
ed, Captain Mcintosh, killed, Col. B.
III. Rivers, I'd Regiment - Volun-
teers, dangerously wounded, Col. Her
bert, Sd Louisiana Volunteers, killed or
dangerously wounded, Major General
Sterling Price, dangerously wounded.
Thirteen pieces of artillery were cap.
tured by our men, among them one lost
10y Sigei at Wilson's Greek.
| Cur loss is regarded at 800 or ,Ooo
killed and wounded. The rebel lo.s il
not known, bat supposed to be from
1900 to 5000. Large numbers of reb
el prisoners were taken, probably 500
and more are constantly being brought
in. 1000 Indians were engaged in the
battle, and Is of our killed were scalpeG
by them. Price with about 200 mer
retre$ted northward, and then took an
easterly direction. Gen. JEFF. Davis il

Br BAYARD TAYLOR.

With rushing winds and loomy skies,
The dark and stubborn Winter dies;
Far-off, unseen, Spring family cries.
Bidding her earliest child arise;
March,
By streams still held in icy snare.
Or Southern hill-sides melting bare.
Ger fields that motley colors wear,
That summons fills the changeful air;
March!
What though conflicting seasons make
Thy days their field, they WOO or shake
The sleeping lids of Life awake,
And Hope is stronger for thy sake;
March!
Then from thy mountain, ribbed with snow,
Once more thy rousing bugle blow,
And East and West, and to and fro.
Proclaim thy coming to the foe;
March,
Say to the picket, chilled and numb,
Say to the camps impatient hum,
Say to the trumpet and the drum;
Lift up your hearts, come, / come!
march,
Cry to the waiting hosts that stray
On sandy sea-sides far away,
By marshy isle and cleaning bay,
Where Southern March is Nothern May;
March
Announce thyself with welcome noise,
Where Glory's victor-eagles poise
Above the proud, heroic boys
Of Iowa and Illinois!
March!
Then down the long Potomac's line
Shout like a storm on hills of pine,
Till ramrods ring and bayonets shine;
Advance! the Chieftain's call is mine,
