A Plucky Union Girl.

We are informed that when Morgan's for
ces were passing from Sharon to the Little
Miami River detachment entered the house
of Mr.. Stewart and demanded of his dangb-
ter that she should prepare for them cooked
meal. She very promptly told them she
would do no such thing, that she was true to
the Union, and would cook for no rebel. They
said they must have something to eat, "Verv
WELL" said she. | expect you will take every
thing in the house, but you can have no help
from me-" While some of the party were
ransacEing the hUuse and cellar for eatables.
others called upon her to sing and play; when
she sat down to the piano, and played and
sang the national airs. The rebels gathered a.
round and listened atteGlivcly. The music,
they said, was very good, but the words didn I
Auit them. The young lady told them she
sang no other kind of songs. Finally the reb-
els called for horses. The young lady inform
ed them that there was one old horse in the
stable that had been turned out TO die !; If he
would be Of any service they could take him
They concluded he wouldn't do, and left That
girl ought to be the wife Of MaiOr-Ge1eral
We understand the rebels were rather pleased
than otherwise, with the spirit she Displayed
Lebanon Star.

Terms of Peace.

some Journals talk about srranging terms
OF peace with the rebels -as though, ia order
TO a cessation of war it was necessary to treat
With the rebels, and thus acknowledge aud rec.
ognize them as power But we are not at
war with a nation-we are defending our ma.
tIonal life against a set of insurgents
who took up arms and made war against our
government and laws. The only way In
which that war can cease is by the rebels
throwing down their arms, returning to their
homes, and submitting to the laws. When
they do that hostilties cease at once. Under
our system of government there is no occasion
for treaties or arrangements: for whenever the
rebels-cOnvinced of the hopelessness of their
bad cause-are no longer willing to fight,
cease 10 fight and disband their armies, that
moment the supreme law ofthe land will again
he observed in the whole country, and peace
will be restored. No doubt the rebels would
be most happy to treat with US. Mr. Stephens
and Mr.. Ould were quite ready TO come to
Washington the other day. Their reception
would have been the best recognition they
could have had, and this little ruse Of Davis
would, had it been successful, have emitted
Napoleon at once TO recognize the Southern
Confederacy," and justify the act by our own
conduct. The reply made to Mr. Stephens
was eminently wise and proper: The Gus
iomary agents and channels are ad quate for
all neediul military communication and con-
ference between the United States forces and
he insurgents. IN. Y. Evening Post

FRUIT-A WORD OF CAUrIoN.-Thc
following advice, which we clip from al
exchange, will apply equally to this vi.
cinity: These summerh days always
bring with them the usual supply of de-
licacies peculiar to the season, which are
indulged in by all who have access to
them, to no small extent, without re-
gard to consequences; and to this fact,
together with the oppressive heat, may
be attributed great deal of sickness
now prevailing in our midst. AS a pre-
ventice against so much sickness, a few
words of caution and advice may not be
out Ofplace to our readers. We are now
pretty well supplied with fruits and veg
etables, some ripe and fit for use, but
large quantity quite unsuited TO the d.
gestiVe powers of animals only supplied
with Christian stomachs. Unripe fruit is
the source of vast amount of disease,
having a tendency to produce even ehole-
ra, one of the moot malignant and sum-
mary epidemics known to the disciples
of Esculapius. 1t would be well, there
fore, for people to examine their fruit
before using it, and parents es-
pecially should keep close watch over
their Children. The destructive effects OF
unripe fruit among young folks are i'm
nense, as shown by the mortality lists OF
our cities. We make these suggestions,
trusting that some one may be benefited
9y them, believing as we do that
word to the wise is sufficient 1859

from beggary, and made suppliant
before God for mercies on your head
every day that she lives; the sick
and unfortunate succored, the or
phan educated, the school founded,
the village lined with shade trees, a
free library established, and thou
sand such like things. A man is not
known by how much money he has,
but by what that money is worth to
him. If it is worth only selfshness,
meanness, stinginess, vanity, and
naughty state, a man is not rich if
he own a million dollars If it means
generosity, public spirit, social com
fort and refinement, then he is rich
on a few hundred. You must put
your hand into mans heart to find
out how much he is worth, not into
his pocket.

Clear and sound

At the Erie Conference of the M. f. Church
DR.. Kingsley, editor of the Western Advocate,
'et forth the Rebellion, in report that was
adopted, which opened as follows: '' t@4
The present gigantic rebellion is a conflict
between two antagonistic forms of civilization,
he one founded on the Declaration of Ameri-
can Independence, and recognizing the dignit v
Of labor; the other founded on slavery, and a
'upreme disregard of the welfare of the labor
ng classes. The one seeks to elevate all cIas-
Ses of society, the other makes the elevation
9f few depend upon the perpetual degrdaa-
lion of the vast majority. Slavery, be it re-,
'nembered, does not degrade the black man
,lone; the poor whites, on account of the O.
lium ATTACHED to labor, are reduced to a con
lition 80 low as to 0e despised even by the ne.
yroes. The determination to extend, perpetu-
ATE, and nationalize the system of American
Slavery, making it the central idea in the en-
tire national policy domestic and foreign; and
demanding that a minority amounting to less
'han one seventy fifth Of the entire population
Of the United States should have controlling
in every department Of the Govern
ment, had for many years been the settled pol.
icy Of those now 10 rebellion. Not content
with domineering over the helpless victims of
their selishuess at home, they determined to
rule both North and South with rod of iron.
The fear that owing to the greater prosperity
and more rapidly increasing population of
those parts of the country eonsecrated to lib
erty, this power to control everything, and
have everything their own way, was about to
pass out Of their hands, bas led to the deliber-
ate purpose Of breaking up the Government of
The United States. An institution originating
in theft and robbery, and whose continuance
rom generation t o generation is but
theft and robbery, now rises up
10 destroy our Government and lay waste the
roodly heritage which God and our fathers
laye beOueatbed to us

Get angry with your neighbor, and
think you have not friend in the world.
Shed tear or two, aad take a walk in
the burial ground continually saying to
yourself, "fWhen shall'I be buried here?'
Sign a note for friend, and never for
get your kindness, and every hour in the
day whisper to yourself, L wonder if he
will ever pay the note.'
Think everybody means to cheat you.
Clesely examine every bill you take, and
doubt its being genuine till you have put
the owner to a great deal of trouble
Believe every ninepenee passed on you is
but sixpence crossed, and express your
doubts about getting rid of it if you
should venture to take it.
Put confidence in nobody, and believe
every man you trade with to be rogue.
Never accommodate if you can possibly
help it. Never visit the sick or afflicted,
and never give farthing to assist the
poor.
Buy as cheap as you can and screw
down the lowest mill. Grind the faces
and hearts of the unfortunate.
Brood over your misfortune, your lack

LIFE is adjusted to the wants of the
stronger sex. There are many torrents
to be crossed in it's journey, but their
stepping-stones are measure by the stride
of man, not of woman.
The strongest words are generally the
oftenest broken.
The simplest things turn out to be
unbelievable mysteries; the most mys-
terious appearances prove to be the most
common place objects in disguise.
Do your duty, however dangerous
Death comes to all, and the world does
not need your bodily presence SO much as
it does your moral heroism.
OUR tokens of compliment and love are
for the most part barbarous. Rings and
other jewels are not gifts, but apologies
for gifts.
The world is in a state of bankruptcy;
the world owes the world more than the
world can pay, and ought to go into the

AS you enter the pent up garret of a
squalid court, thank God that He has
cast your lot in a brighter scene. 1t is,
indeed, a miserable place, and though sit
uated in crowded part of the city, yet
is less known to the inhabitants than the
interior of Africa. From this squalid
court; there arises from the midst of filth
and crime, of misery and starvation the
cry of the ill-paid child of labor. Miser-
ably paid, suffering with hunger, lifts her
eyes to heaven, and prays for DEATH
See how pale she looks-and thin;-ye
thin as Fanine's sister.'-She is alone
in her agony, gazing with despair no her
| last crust of bread.
Reader, this is one of the women en-
ployed in the manufactory where Shirts
are sold at unprecedented low prices.'-
Anguish is in her soul-for a seamstress
has soul, through the world practically
denies it.
She is weeping-her eyes are half
blinded by work !; the tears fall like balls
| of motion lead, and as khe turns she
sees two gaunt spectres rise up before her.
She must make choice. God keep the
poor woman. zr-
One is hideous to look upon-fearful
as hell. 1t points her to life of pleas
nre, but thorns are lurking beneath all.
Its name is 'sHAMEh
The other is too horrible to describe.
Want, misery, and despair follow in its
train. It's 'sTATvATIoNl . q.
But one of the two she must choose
there is no redemption. The master OF
the Shirt Mandatory refused to pay
until the work is finished, and even then
SO small is the pittance that it scarcely
suffices for days meal.
Poor miserable woman!' Her choice
must be made. The virtuous principles
of her mother, impressed upon her mind
| by Kindness, raised up their barriers to
protect her from the waves oftempation,
but life tempts, and hunger threatens.
Better die says virtue.
But starvation with its horrible and
terrible sufferings, stare her in the face
and with fright she turns from the
! view.
Fearful, oh, God, is the struggle. On
one side life and carer and pleasure--on
the other, side starvation The contest
is terrible, but soon is over Want, mis-
cry and starvation have conquered She
chooses SHAME
Angles weep. There is regret in
Heaven, but in hell rejoicing.
She has chosen her cOurse-a life oi
