A Musical Horse,

When I was boy, my father owned
sOrrel mare, which was called lib. She
vas ordinarily sluggish, but possessed good
speed and great power. She never fright
eued at anything, and, aside from her la
Elness, was good beast, except on partic-
) ular occasions, when she, without any APP
parent cause, would refuse to go. For
long time she was subject to the usual
treatment of balky animals-~severe whip
ping, pounding, torturing, etc. But my
father and the hired man gave it up as a
bad course, and she was released from this
harassment. A close observation of her
tantrums led me to the conclusion that she
was subject to paroxysms of the nervous
system, growing out of the electrical changes
Of the atmosphere. She was always true
to draw or travel in bright, clear, sky-blue
spring or summer weather; and for the
dozen years that we owned her we were
never troubled with her in cold, frosty,
still winters day. But on a summers day,
When the electric fluid passed rapidly from
the earths surface, and dyspectics would
look like committing suicide, and rheumat-
lcs would predict q change Of atmosphere,
when the thunder-caps, white and gor-
geous as an East-India palace, lifted their
aeads IN the northwest, betokening the

DEMOCRACY; A CoLLoQUY.
BY soLyMAN BRowS.

Ny country, my country, ah, where are thy
foes?
Where the Upas of pseudo--demoeracy grows
In the East, In the West, in the North, in the
South,
Where the venom distils from the copperhead's
mouth
Columbia, Columbia, oh, tell me pray,
What call st thou democracy, now, in thy day
Has Greece or has Rome given birth TO the name,
Which traitors disgrace and which oligarchs
claim?
Know, citizens, know, that an instinct. most
strange,
Has taught the chameleon its colors to change;
And thus many a-hon's skin covers lamb,
And ancient democracy changed to sham
Then tell me, my country, who now are thy
friends2
While Hades its vagabond plunderers sends,
To steal from thy treasures young Lberty's
leaven,
Designed to enliven banquet from Heaven?
'My friends are the men who with courage and
steel
Come forth for my rescue, and Liberty's veal
No matter what name, or what color they bear,
Examine their hearts, there is loyalty there"

bundles Of fred straw under her belly,

post, she was deaf to all urgencies and APP
peals save one. That would start her after
a while. The same result would be wit
messed in winters day, when the air was
from the south and thawy. So she was al
ways worked with these reservations, for
she was not always reliable. After we had
owned her about eight years, my father
hired man by the name of John Hart
He was pious man, and liked above all
things to sing. One bright August morn
ing we were drawing in wheat, and old
lib had been drafted into harness She
had worked we'll till about four o'clock in
the afternoon, when suddenly, as we were
loading, there came clap of thunder from
an almost
''Clear sky
on our cars, and we saw in the west cloud
little larger than mans hand portending
rain. We were not far from the barn, and
hoping to get loaded and into the barn be-
fore the rain reached us, the sheayes were
thrown on by two men, and loaded by Hart
with great dexterity Our hopes were
quite sanguine that lib would be reasona-
Bile this time-frst, because she had had
hard thunder.shoWer experience enough to
know that it was not pleasant to her, nor
at all obliging to those employing her; sec
ond, because she was "homeward bound, "
and little effort would put us all under
dry cover. She made no hostile demon
stration till the rack was loaded, when, at
the usual word, she refused to bulge one
inch. The men proposed to pound her,
but nv father forbade, but suggested to
Hart to sing, He had a full, manly, mel
odious voice, which rung from his throat
in tones sweet and beautiful; and he knew
all the ballads from Robin Hood to Yankee
Doodle, ana the Methodist hymns from
elbow the trumpet to GLOW happy are
they" Twas scene for Turner'S pencil.
In the west lay thunder-caps white as snow,
like Pelion upon Ossa. North and south
the rain had Aanked US like the wings Of
an army. Here and there fell big rain
drop harbinger of more, whilst around the
load stood the hired men aching to pound
old lib into mince-meat.
Hart was on the load "Sing," said my
father. Hart began to sing hymn, every
two lines of which was q chorus OF,
''Blow ye the trumpet Blow?
Sing Glory lIallelpjah y
and his eye dilatcd, and his breast heayed,
and he forgot that behind him, but little
way off, was thunder and lightning enough,
rightly expended, to elbow" up half OF

THE British merchants who have boon
selling vessels to the South to be used in
destroying our commerce, seem to have
come under cloud, of late, and are be-
ginning to clamor for fair hearing D.
ut is simply the spirit of trade" they say,
(which induces us to sell vessels and mu-
nitions Of war to the American rebels. We
will not only sell them gunboats, but we
uiH also sell the Untonists better 1ear ues-
sells TO capture their g's'boats ruth" That

A Coon MANS WIsH.-'I freely con-
fcss to you" said DIR. Sharp, that | would
rather, when | am laid in the grave, some
one in his manhood would stand over me
and say, There lies one who was real
friend to me in the time of need, owe
what | am to him. Or | would rather have
some widpW, with choking utterance, telling
her children There is your friend and
mine, He visited me in my affection, and
found you, my son, an employer, and you,
my daughter, happy home in virtuous
family I say | would rather that such
persons should stand at my grave, than to
have erected over it the most beautiful
sculptured monument of marble. The
hearts broken utterance of reflections of
past kindness, and the tears Of grateful
memory shed upon the grave, are more
valuable, in my estimation, than the most
costly cenotaph ever reared.

The Illinois Soldiers on the Tories.

On January 30th, a meeting Of all the
officers Of The Illinois regiments stationed
at Corinth, WAS held at that Post Lieut..
Col. Phillips, of the 9th Illinois, presi
ded. A long series of resolutions were
reported and unanimously adopted by
the meeting. The following will indi-
cate the tone of the whole:
ReSolved, That we have watched The
traitorous conduct of those members Of
the Legislature of the State of Illinois,
who, disappearing their constituency,
have been proposing a cessation OF the
war. avowedly to arrange terms of peace,
but really to give time for the exhausted
rebels to recover strength, and renew
their plotting 10 divest Governor Yates
OF the rights and authority vested in him
by our State Constitution and laws and
to them we calmly and firmly say: Be.
ware of the terrible retrbution that is
falling upon your coadjutors at the South,
and that, as your crime is ten-fold black
er, il will swiftly smite you with ten fold
more horror, should you persist in your
damnable deeds Of treason.

Nor FOR EXPoRr.-A rather important
step on the subject Of slavery has been
taken by the Spanish Government. An
order has been published in the official
Gazette dated Madrid, Dec. IL, 1862,
By which it is Gecreed that slaves going
with their Cuban masters to the United
States North. or to any free country, be
come thereby free, the same as if they
had gone 10 Spain Another recognition
by a national power that slavery is the
creature Of local laws. and the liberty is
the general rule for all mankind. An
other point for jeff. Davis next message.

a FUTURE FOR CoPPERHEADs.-Lieut.
Snyder, Of the 101st regiment, writes to
the Dixon Republican as follows
I'VE hate cowardly villains and trait
ors who are afraid that the rebels will be
hurt or deprived of their property, when
found in the army, rs much as those who
are still at our homes, and would rather
shoot them than Southern traitors. We
are surprised that men should be allow
ed TO put rorlh such resolutions as those
lately passed in Springfield, and il the
black hearted towards who put them
forth, think they have friends in the ar
my they are sadly deceived. Dark aud
dispiriling as the future looks, we are
still ready to fight traitors, and when
those in the South are nut down, we
want a chance at those detestable and
cowardly ones in the North
