GOOD NIGHT.


See the sun is gently setting, ..i ta.
Watch the last, faint, glmmering streak,
As he sinks in all his glory,
Far behind yon mountain peak;
Fainter still, his rays grow fainter,
As recedes the parting day;
See him smiling as he fingers,
And while smiling seems to say
Good night Good night
Gaze now Ger the distant ocean,
Where the salt waves love to roar;
Loud the storm -fends wild cry echoed
But few short hours before.
Watch it now-the waves sigh gently,
And, as fades the parting day,
Listen, for they seem to murmur
(And in echoes die away
Good night Good night
When you seek your silent chamber,
In the still, calm hour of night,
And there peep forth from the lattice,
To enjoy the lovely sight,
On your cheeks the moon seems gazing,
As she climbs the ether way,
And the stars with merry twinkle,
Smiling on you seem to say
Good night Good night
And while on your couch you're slumbring,
And sweet sleep your eyelids bend,
Hov'ring DER you guardian angels
Their unwearied watch attend.
Sleep on calmly, gentle slumberer,
Let this thought dispel your fear,
All night long the angels whisper
In your inattentive ear

The BORROW OF THE OcEAN.-Sound-
ings in the Atlantic have revealed the
fact that at least two hundred and thirty
miles from the coast of Ireland, the wa
ter is shallow; or, in other words, that
there is another Ireland only waiting 10
he raised. Il is just beyond this that the
true Atlantic begins, the gulf suddenly
sinking TO nine thousand feet. Thus Ire
land may one day have coast line as
high as the Alps. The whole floor of the
Atlantic is paved with soft, sticky sub
stance, called oazo, nine-tenths consisting
of very minute animals, many of them
mere Jumps of jelly, and thousands of
which could float with ease in n drop of
water; some resembling toothed-wheels !;
others bundles Of spines or threads shoot
ing from little globule. Some, howev-
er, are endowed with the property of sep
arating flint from the sea watcr-which
is more than every chemist could do; and
there are hundreds Of square miles cover
ed with the skeletons of these little crea-
lures. Part of this oazo is doubtless from
the clouds of rain-dust which rise from
the vast steppes Of South America, in
such masses rs to darkcn the sun, and
make the animals fly TO shelter, and
which, after sweeping like a simeon over
the country, loose themselves in the "steep
Atlantic" No bones have been found Of
the larger animals, so that the kraken
and sea-serpent might sleep their last
sleep, and leave not bone or n vertebra
TO tell tho tale.

A SINGULAR SToRY.-The Hudson

A SINGULAR SToRY.-The Hudson
Star tells the following singular story:
A wonderful instance of rescue from
drowning occurred at Athens, Tuesday.
The facts MS we have gathered are these:
A boy about eight years old fell into a
hole in the Athens channel, a short dis
tance from the new ice-houso which is
building. He was seen to go down, and
the alarm was given. While some ran
towards the spot others had the presence
of mind to run in tho opposite direction
to the tool-housc, three hundred feet off,
for an ice chisel. The ice was new and
transparent, and they found the boy was
lying upon his back, on the top of the wa
ter, floating along under the ice. A hole
was made, but he passed one side and
they could not reach him. A second and
third hole further down was made, but
with no better success. But through the
fourth hole, which, for want of time was
made very small, young man thurst his
hand and caught him. The ice was cut
away and he was taken out, not only alive
but conscious. He was soon entirely re-
stored. He had floated, as was found by
measurement, one hundred and twelve
feet under the ice, with his face up and
rubbing against it. He must have taken
a full inspiration of mir on going down;
and the little fellow was taken out with
his hand tightly clasped over his mouth
and nose, SO that not drop of water had
entered his body. II is evident that Dan
Parmenter was not born to be drowned"

A NEW PROGRAMME.

Scouts report from LaGrangc as late as
the llth, the arrival of reuforcements, and
heavy shipments of commissary and quar-
termoster'5 stores from Memphis. Also,
that it was rumored in the Federal camps
that the new programme was to send a force
along each of the three railroads leading
south into Mississippi from Memphis, Grand
Junction and Corinth. Such a big job will
scarcely be undertaken, bat one Of the
routes indicated will probably be undertaken,
Tupclo, Abbc,ilIe or Grenada may soon be-
come points of interest again.
Rumors have also been received from the
same source that portion of Grants army
has gone by water to join Eosccrans.-1P-

High neutrality-suspicious..

The Savannah Republican,, in discussing
the high price of provisions and the causes
which have led thereto, says that there are
millions of pounds of bacon and bushels of
corn which now lie massed up in various
sections Of the Confedcracy, whilst the people
not fifty miles distant are actually suffering
from hunger Open the hoodgates, and we
shall have plenty, if not peace. The railroad
companies of the South are much to be CEN
surcd for this disastrous state CT affairs.
They have gone on coming money apparent
1y without thought of the future, or at least
without making any adequate preparation to
meet its exigencics successfully. Why have
! they not long since combined, and from their
wcl-stulTed Golfers appropriated u sufficient
amount to establish, at one or more central
points, extensive works for the manufacture
of locomotives, car wheels, railroad iron and
all the necessary machinery for the successful
conduct of their business? Had it been done
year ago, we should now hear but little
rcomplaint of stagnant commerce and starry
Sing army and people. A fearful time awaits
! rs and we regard not only the feeding of the
people but the existence ofthe Government it,
self dependent, in n great measure, upon the
q enlargement and iudicious control of our
means Of transportation. Hitherto our army
\ has been supported in a great part from the
products of the country Immediately sur
pounding it but we have now very differ
ent state of things before US. Northern and
Western Mississippi, North Alabama, nearly
tile whole Of Tennessee, and the best portion
Of Virginia, are in the hands, Of the enemy or
30 seriously threatened that agriculture must
cease for the time being. The entire support
pf the army, therefore, will have to be trans
) ported to them from distance over our rail
,toads, and when we recollect that the means
~ performing this increased service are daily
diminishing, we have a gloomy prospect in
4eed. Add to this the probable necessity OF
*nequent transportation Of troops, baggage
ma munitions of war, and where shall we be
found at the end of the year, Let our rail-
road men and the public arouse to prop

THE SITUATION.

Every day feeler3 are thrown out along
our whole line by the willy Rosecrans.
The feint made upon Liberty and our far
right ; the sham movement toward McMinn-
vile; maneuvrcs in front of our center are
possibly all of them meant as measures OF
reconnaissance merely although such games
Of chance bo-peep very frequently result in
general engagements and decisive conflicts.
We learn that raid has been made sue
cessfully upon portion of the McMinnyille
and Manchester railroad, but are enclined to
believe the damage to be trifing.
May not the idea of the enemy embrace the
distraction Of sufficient bodies OF our troops
to our right, for the purpose of operating
more deci5iyely against our left and center
As yet the tarn of the campaign is on the
cards the designs Of Rosecrans are probably
known to none but our commanding Gcncr-
ais Chattanooga RsJd iIrR loh
