NTOTICE. AN erroneous impression prevails
IN that the transportation of provisions is pro-
hibited over this railroad. Such is not the case
All supplies intended for private consumption
have always been shipped upon application, and
the only prohibition is that placed by the Gene
raj Commanding the Department, whose object
was to preserve them for the use Of the army.
This order he has always relaxed when applied
to by private parties for bacon, &C., for their
own consumption, but has been so refused spe-
culators, to prevent improper speculation in the
neoessaries Of life. Notice is therefore given to
parties needing provisions for their own use,
that the same will be permitted transportation
by the Commanding General and will be. at all
times furnished by the road. Application will
be made either to Mr.. Dodamead, General SUI
perintendent, or myself, and transportation will
be ordered. r. Z. OWEN, President.

POETRY.
Speak Kindly.
BY JENNY WOODBINE.

Speak kindly to the erring one
Strive by gentle word
To soothe the hearts Of those by whom
Kind words are seldom heard
And never to the human heart,
By word or deed, give pain,
For when the arrows planted there,
There long it will remain.
Speak kindly to the grief-bowed ones
Grief too may visit thee,
And dim thy bright and radiant eye
Thou knowest such can be.
Then add no shade to the pale face
That e'er must wear cloud
By idle jests pain not the ear
OF those in anguish bowed.
Speak kindly to the suffering poor
Theirs is weary lot;
A gentle word, plying look,
By them is ne'er forgot.
Oh, never pass such coldly by,
For they are often met,
Speak kindly, It's an easy task,
And one you'd meier regret.
Speak kindly to thy bitterest foe
Thus make Of him friend
IT'S said that virtue pardons first
Those whom she would amend.
Then speak the kind and plying word,
It will not cost thee much;
And some poor erring, suffering heart,
Thy gentle word may touch.
Speak kindly to the troubled heart
Thus strive to give it rest:
For well we know slife' 4httle day
Is a weary one at best
Speak kindly to earth's millionsAll,
Fen as thy Saviour spake;
And by kind words and gentle deeds,
The earth an Eden make
