THE LOVE FLOWERS.
A TRIBUTE TO THE EARLY FALLEN.

upon an agonizing death.bed, the miserable con-
Wet standing upon the scaffold, deep curse
quivering upon his lips. have viewed death in
all its forms Of darkness and terror, with bold
and fearless eye. But never could look upon
womaH~-beautiful lovely woman, fading away
from earth in beautiful and uncOmplalninS mel

feeling turned into tears and dust. Death Is al

is passing off to the silent land of seepers, the
heart feels there is something lovely ceaslng from
existence, and broods with sense of utter des,

midnight dreams"-[GEo, d. PRENTICE.
A fragile flower bent DER the ripping wave,
A pearly dew drop nestled lOwly there
The pure and limpid emblem nature gave
To token to that bud all blooming fair
Its modest worth,
But soon ruthless storm swept rudely by,
The crystal drop was shaken in the stream;
The chilling waves pressed onward silently.
And soon each leaf with day last fitful CLEAN
Mingled with earth.
A youthful form, with hopes all beaming bright,
The sunlight of a circle loved and dear
In whose dark eye beamed forth the fervent light
OF love and virtue in those early years,
Gladdened ite's way.
But Spring with genial breeze came stealing o'er'
And yeiled those hearts in dark and fearful
gloom.
For that loved one-in saddest grief we bore
To her last home within the silent tomb.
Each bloomed in love and beauty one bright day
Bright gems from Paradise in earth below
Alike, they soon in silence passed away,
Leaving a void of dark and fearful woe,
To mortals given.
Soon shall that flower return to bloom again,
And soon shall we, that lost one ever dear
Meet in world unknown to grief or pain,
In blest reunion dwell there endless years ;
+ With Love in Heaven.

PROGRESS The election of B. Gratz Brown,
for the shcrt term, and John B. Henderson, for
the long term, as U. S. Senators from Missouri,
is most gratifying indication of progress. They
are both Eman cipAtionlsts, and Gratz Brown is
decidedly radical. And beside this evidence of
advance, the State at the recent election has un-
doubtedly given majority for the Radicals, over
it has done this in spite of the State and Federal
authorities, which has all been used against the
Radicals. Missouri has joined the free labor
movement in earnest, and unless given up to JEFF
Davis will soon be free State.

BRANDY STATION, Va, Nov. 9th, 1868.

BRANDY STATION, Va, Nov. 9th, 1868.
We let cur station near Catlet, Saturday, and
reached the Rapahannoc~ at Kelly's Ford the
middle Of the afternoon, when finding that the
rebels held the opposite bank, the Sharpshoot-
ers were deployed as skirmishers and kept them
at bay till the artillery came up and got in posi-
ton, when the enemy, who began to show them
sel> es in force, were shelled till they were glad to
fall back into the woods, and our troops began
to ford the river. The 1st Regiment Shap Shoot
ers crossed first, right in the face of point blank
f e from some rebel rife pits and dashing up
the bank, took possession of the pits and their &C.
cupants.
After sending back the prisoners, they kept
right on, to the brow Ct the hill, where was an
other line of rife pits, which they also captured
and held til after dark, keeping up continual
skirmish with the rebels in front After dark
the regiment was relieved and went to the rear,
where we could get a chance to dry our cloths,
warm our benumbed limbs and get some supper.
Sunday morning it was found that the rebs had
evacunted, so the army resumed its march to
ward the Rapid Ann, and proceeding cautiously
and feeling our way as it were, we reached this
place last night. In the fight Saturday, our Re-
gment did all the fighting to speak of, except
what was done by artillery, and took, in the
whole, far as be ascertained, over 800 pris-
oners, whether We get credit for it or net.
Casualties in the Regiment, killed and ~
wounded. In Company F, one killed, private
Patrick Murray, and two wounded, private Fitz
Greene Hallock, in the leg, and corporal Eugene
Meade, in the side neither dangerously.
We could hear cannonading in front nearly all
day yesterday, but this morning all is still. What
comes next, time will tell.
?. S.-Nov. 10TH forgot to mention that a
Pontoon Bridge was built after we crossed the
river Saturday, on which the main body of the
troops crossed.
We are still at Brandy Station. The rebels
left an extensive arrangement of winter quarters
here, nearly completed, and evidently abandoned
in hurry.
We are on the farm of John Minor Bolts, on
picket near Brandy Station, and we have COM
menced putting up winter quarters again, at Bran
dy Station, using also those that the rebels left
behind them. w. w.

The Providen CO of God i'll the War.

Hon. s. p. Chase, in his speech in Indian
apolis, Ind, on the 14th, ult., among other
things, said:
If there ever was any event 10 the history
of this world which was distinctly marked by
the tokens of Divine Providence, it is this
war. There had grown up an institution in
this country, which had served as the basis of
an aristocraoy hostile to free labor and all
those interests which you most cherish. 1t
was an aristocracy that pressed with equal
we ght upon the poor white man OF the South,
and the slave who was driven like the brute
to his daily toll. This aristocracy had seized
upon the national government,and was making
it just what they pleased, for the purpose Of
working their wills. They were striving to
extend slavery into all the free territory of
the country, and to reopen the slave trade
that they might make fresh importations of
slaves from Africa at pleasure. They scout
cd the very idea Of free institutions, and had
so organized themselves that they preferred
to overthrow and ruin the Cover ment rather
than submit to having the Republic governed
by the people. In 1860 they determined
they would govern the Republic themselves
Lincoln was elected President. They still
bad Congress and the Supreme Court, but
they were not content with this. They were
not willing the power should pass out of their
hands into the hands of the the representa-
tives Of the people. Aud SO they undertook
to break up The Republic in the same hope
that they could make new Republic, found
ed on the slavery of men. They expected
that New York would join them in breaking
up the Union-they boosted that Indiana
was going to join them, ard Illinois also.
They said all the northwestern States would
come in rather than have the Mississippi closed
Thus they hoped to found mighty slave en-
pire; but when they began their play by fire.

was not Gods hand in that think it was.
After that you all remember how forbearing
everybody was used to be very impatient
sometimes, and wanted this military thing
doue and that military thing done, and the
rebellion crushed out at once. But somehow
or other in The providence of God, the thing
worked slowly along, aud it was only wheu
we had made up our minds that slavery was
at the root of the rebellion, and that it must
be got out Of the way, that any very distin-
guished success followed our arms. Now,
what remarkable change has taken place
An over the country to-day, slavery is recog-
nized as the great cause and prop of the re-
belioD. 1t is recognized as such in every slave
State as much as it is in every free State
of the Union 1t is SO und rstood and pro.
claimed by the rebels in the South. They
distinctly understand that they are fighting
for slave empire, and that we.are fighting for
the right of the people to govern themselves.
Now, see the wonderful changes that have oc-
cured in public opinion upon this subject

ago some seventy delegates from Missouri
