ton which mono OF the well-intormed have paid
any attention to- such as that large bodies Of troops
were moving In Princess Anne, and Isle Of Wight,
with the evident intention Of attacking US here,
Gen. Wise being in command. Our cavalry scouts
have constantly traversed the country between this
and the Blsckwater, and their reports conclusively

Still, the whole camp was astir soon after tattoo
last night, by the long roll" and quicker than
you would believe possible the regiments were In

After remaining till toward midnight, word was

Ny ardent friend Of by gone days,
Az, almost brother, | might say,
The busy past my mind surveys,
For thou, alas. though far away
From home and kindred To endear,
Hast bid adieu to earthly care.
IL was thy country's future fame
That urged thee from thy home so dear
To screen thy government from shame
That freedom might TO all appear;
And nobly didst thou act thy part,
There can have been no braver heart!
The Winters sun with cleamy light,
Reminds me Of my boyhood years,
When our earthly hopes were bright
And our eyes were free from tears;
But those years, how fast they've fed!
And thou art numbered with the dead
Thou vast upon the field of gore,-.
Yea. oft within the battle din,
Oft hast thou heard the cannon's roar,
And mid the dead and dying been;
But though unhurt--when all is o'er,
Death Yields his swotd-thou art no more
And shall we hear thy voice no more,
To give our sorrowing, sad hearts cheer
a whispering voice comes from afar:
"Dear friends suppress, dry ey'ry tear,
Don't weep-but ev'ry tear be dried,--
| for your bleeding country died!
80, father. DO hot grieve for me,
And mother, sisters, brothers. all,
Although ! cannot with YOU be,
Grieve rot; you know our nations call
'Tis done-the dates OF the day
And time will wear your woes away"
SO, Asa, now long fIrewell
can't thy virtues all explore,---
know tli, virtues. though, full well!

Beneath the shade trees near the surge,
The roaring winds viii chant Thy dirge.

With tne modern expansion OF
journalism, and the absorption oil
the writing faculty in the luces
SAINT production ol vast periodI-
cal, beating for the most part on
the immediate necessities or

Authorship, such as existed IN its

and in the earlier pat OF the
