Ye shall reap if We be not weary,
For the spirit breathes DER all.
Sow, though the thorns may wound thee

And though the cold world scorn thee,
Patient and hopeful be.
Sow ye beside all waters,
With a blessing and prayer
Name Him whose hand upholds US,
And sow thou everywhere.
Sow, though the rock repel thee,

Fear not, for some win flourish
And though the tares abound,
Like the willows by the waters,
Will the scattered grain be found
Work while daylight lasteth,
Ere the shades of night come on
Ere the Lord of the vineyard cometh,
And the laborers work is done.
Work in the wild waste place,
Though none thy love shall own,
God guides the down Of the thistle

Will Jesus chide thy weakness,

Shall return to him. again.
On with thy heart in, heaven,

hictcd considerable damage upon the vandals,
and watcrcd his horses in the Ohio at Mays

During the progress Of his march he en-
countcrcd the Yankees at four different
points First, near Mount Sterling, he
was met by Major Williams. command.

cavalry, and after a running fight of twelve
miles, succeeded in driving him back into the
town. killing % of his men, and taking q Vi
them prisoners. He would have taken the
town, but it was filled with infantry. In the
fight Maj. Williams was severely and, it is
thought, mOrtally wounded. lie then turned
of in the direction of Maysville, via HILLSIDE
rough, Poplar Plains and Flemingsburg.-
When he arrived ut Maysvillc. he found only q
garrison of SO men defending the place
These were soon disposed Of aud, gaining pos
session of the town, he remained over night,
where himself and command were received
with many manifestations of hospitality
more especially by the ladies. lie captured
and destroyed here 400 Enfield rifles and a
l2-pound howitzcr. captured from zollicoifer at
Fishing Creek. lie also mustered into the
Confederate service, at Uncle Sans expense,
so horses, saddles, sahreS and pistols.
On his return, he encountered force OF
Home Guards near Fox Springs, under Major
Hambrick. After n short fight the Guards
were routed, Major llambrick having been
killed in hand to hand rencountcr with Capt.
Jackson. of the squadron. About Is miles
from Owingsville,. on the Licking river, hcwas
met by Gen. Dc Courcey, and attacked both
in front and rear by heavy force of infantry,
assisted by two batteries of artillery. BY
taking difficult route across neighboring
mountain, he escaped the forces that were
closing in upon him. but not, however, with
