SECESSIA.

While discharging the duties of the Iowa Sai
atary Agency, among onr sick and woun ed /
Helena Mrs. Wittenmyer fell in with Seces
baptist Clergyman, who asked for some poetr
The following lines were thereupon writer
and though acknowledged to be every poor D,
etly," proved equal to the cason. The ere,
erend Secesh" had no more to say.
LINES ADDRESSED TO REV. Mr.. E-E, OF III
LENA, Arkansas.
Heard We how the Southern traitors
They, the cruel Yankee haters,
They, the pampered lords of cotton.
Rich in wealth and slaves ili-gotten.
Heard ye, when with pride inflated,
Loud Of Chivalry they prated,
Till Sumter felt the deadly rattle,
That dared our millions on to battle
History will tell the story,
Long before our locks are hoary,
How our lordly Southern ncighbor,
~ Because we dared to think and labor,
Spurned us as beneath his prowess.
And came with whip and steel to COW us;
Roasting that one Southern knig ght
Could whip five "Mudsils' in fight,
That he would make the Yankees cover,
Like vcricst slaves beneath his power.
But when the Ship of State was righted,
And our Dattle-iircs were lighted,
Nhen freedoms nOfic sons fraternal
Urged on by principles eternal,
Went forth to battle for the right,
Secessia saw another sight.
At Fort Donelson and Munroe,
Pea Ridge, MUrflceS Loro, Shiloh,
Where'er they met our gallant forces,
On the bloody battle courses
Heard yn how their guns were battered
And their chivalry were scattered?
Our flag in dust they sought to trample,
And ably strove TO rear a temple
with Il very for its cornerstone,
Slavery, aud slavery alone.
But Got the EN- decree hath spoken
Let the opprcssor's yoke be broken,
Ctton is no longer king,
Let the slaves their tribute bring:
The car Of Jubilee has come
Gather my wandering children home.'
Soon from their dreams they will awaken.
To find their whips and hand cuffs taken.
And their movem nts all check.mated,
with their country desolated,
Al!thclr power forever gone:
Goa IS kmg, and God alone,
ANNIE WlTrENMYER.

WHAT THE DEVIL DID.-And God
said: "Let there be Light" and there
was Light. The Devil said: "Lct there
be party in this country whose platform
shall be Malice, Envy, Hatred, Treason,

with the Copperhcad faction sprang into
existence. The Devil is well pleased
with his own party. He likes it.

TIE RICHEST MAN IN LoU1s1ANA.-A
correspondent of the Boston Post, por-.
traying the utter disruption Of so :iety in
New Orleans, says:
There are none of the leaders Of fashion

to be sure, have sat out the rebellion with
folded arms, waiting patiently for the solu-
ton: Mr.. John Burnside is one OF these.
He is, 1 presume, the richest man in Lou.

and lis mansion on Washington avenue
with its park, as large as your Boston
Public Garden, and its pictures and marble
illustrations Of taste and wealth, and its

for James Robb, but when he failed it fell
into the hands Of Mr.. Burnside. It is

an Irishman and bachelor, with ways

the mystery is that be is sill bachelor.
lie is retired merchant; still he finds
much to do, to keep and save what he has

Already hundreds of his negroes have
been enticed away from his cotton and su-
