to her children, the lover to his sweetheart, the
soldier to his comrades, and the village school
master to the circle around the stove. 1t is famil

our country, and has regular subscribers in seve-

is also identified with the grandest patriotism of
the age, for several members of its brilliant staff
hold high rank in our noble army, and have made
themselves as famous with the Sword as with the
Pen. The great illustrating artist of the NeaC

paper the highest attributes OF the Fine Art; and
