I see thee often in my dreams, mother,
But not with furrowed brow and silvery hair,
That tell the weight of many weary years;
1 see thee as in childhood's early days.
knew thee when thy face, all radient
With smiles and joy, SO truly mirrored forth
A mothers pure angelic love. hear
Thy gentle tones, so full of tenderness,
Steal softly DER the silent midnight air,
When all, save the pale shadowy images
That have their home in the dim lands Of dreams,
Is hushed in quietude. feel thy hand
Upon my brow. Oh, wonld to heaven this life,
This dreary desert life were such dream.
/ was thy first maternal jny-thy young
And noble heart was filed witt rapture when
Thou watshed beside my sleeping form, or lulled
Me by thy gentle words to sleep upon
Thy mother-breast. 'Tis we'll the book of fate
Is scaled. 'Tis Wisdom's self hath drawn the
veil
Over the future dcstinies of life;
Fer else how many noble mothers joy
Would quickly turn to darkest misery.
Oft, in my dreams, see again our home,
Our little, humble, vine clad cottage; there,
Upon the gentle rivers bank see
The shady bower, where was wont to sit
Enwrapt in musings of the future. Ali
How little did think, that future which
clothed in tiDts more beautiful than earth
Could give, was but reign of miseries
Sorrow then had marked me for her own;
For in my heart there grew and strengthened day
BY day feeling of unrest-a wild
And underlined desire to grasp at voids
And shadows in the viewless air. 1 sighed
To wander meath the skies of other lands
And in my erring fancy painted there,
In far off lands, the elysian fields Of bliss.
And now.
For long and weary years, have been
wanderer upon the desert wastes
OF earth, and have learned to look for main
And sorrow as my par of life. I've Taught
My soul TO hide its warm impulses meath
A garb of empty mockeries; yet deep
Within my heart of hearts | ever keep
treasury of holy memories
And when no eye is on me, save that one
OF pity and of love-in the deep hush
OF night, or in the silent grove, where no
lntruding step may fluid its way-I then
Unlock that sacred casket Of the past;
Ana there amid the many priceless gems
Ihe boarded wealth of years, long gone to old
Etcrnity-I find Jewel bright,
vi nameless worth, far dearer to my soul
Than all the wealth Of life beside tits
4 mothers lore
My lonely heart, if orphaned in all else,
Is blessed, if only in possessing sach
boon of holy deathles, love- tits
A aven-born gift, that may not perish amid
The lapse of time dreary ills fife;
And when the world looks dark-whsn scorn or
cold -
-Ifstote3 sweep y CT
My weary sinking spirit, then turn
To thee, my angel mother.

[From the New York Jndependel
Greek Fire.


Even the Angels cannot please the
Rebels. Although it was an angel (as
tie legend goes) that first disclosed the
secret of Greek fire, and Swamp Angel
that re-disclosed it, Gen. Beauregard is
not satisfied. If that General were to
shoot Greek fire to-day to his hearts
content, he would object if his antago-
mist were to shoot just warning speci-
men of it tomorrow. If our OK is gored
by your BULL that is one thing but if
your bull is gored by our OK, that alters
the case: as, for instance, while Beanre-
gard demonstrates that Gilmore gave toe
short time for removing non-combat-
ants from Charleston, the remonstrant
omits to state how much longer time
Ouantrell gave for removing non-combat-
ants from Lawrence If Greek fire was
sent into Charleston, what kind of fire
went flaming into Lawrence p?
But what is Greek fire? A careful
analysis shows it to be, not simply the
warlike compound of bitumen, sulphur,
and pitch, but anything else which the
rebels find too hot for them. 1t is a
weapon both military and civil, common
both to war and politics. When General
Lee retired out of Pennsylvania it was
because the atmosphere was lurid with
Greek fire When Mr.. Lincoln lately sat
down to answer an unhappy correspond
ent at Albany, it was clearly to all eyes
that he dipped his pen in Greek fire.
Charleston having been recently touched
with the fame, New York and Brooklyn
also have caught it. Incredible as it may
seem to our rural subscribers, the Presi-
dent has actually introduced Greek fire
into these two cities with an incendiary
intent to consume the Governor and his
friends" Our public parks are filed
with soldiers, whose muskets, if need
comes for shooting, will vomit forth Greek
FIRE; not against rebels in Charleston,
! but against rebels in New York. Madi
son Square is camp-ground of veterans
| who are Just as willing to shoot rioters
here as rioters on the other side of tht
