rs THIS A TINE TO DANcE'
Ths. breath Of evening sweeps the plain
And sheds its perfume In the dell;
Set on its wings sound Of pain,
sad tones that drown the echo's swell
Aud yet we hear mirthful call,
Fair pleasure smiles with beaming glance,
Gay music sounds in the joyous hall
Oh, God! is this time to dance
Sad noies, as if the spin, sighH,
Float from the crimson battle plain,
As If mighty spirit cried
In awful agony and paia
Our friends We know there suffering lay,
Our brothers, too, perchance,
And in rsproaehfal accents say,
Loved ones, is this q time to daneel
Oh, iift your festal robes on high!
The hsmsn gore that flows around
win stain their hues with crimson dye,
And louder yet yeur music sound.
To drown the dying warriors cry.
Let sparkling wine year joys enhance
Forget that blood has tinged its dye,
And quicker urge the maniae's dance.
But stop! the floor beneath your feet
Gives back collins hollow moan,
Asd every strain in music swse,
Watts for;h dying soldiers groan.
On. sisters who have brothers dear
Exposed to every battles chance.
Brings heck remOrse no forms Of fear
Tofrigln you from the hearlless dancei
Go. ding yeur fes,sl robes away!
Go, den the mosrnsr's sable veil!
Go, bow before your God and pray,
Ifyet your prayers may aught avail.
60, face the fearful form Of death,
And, trembling, meet the ending glance.
And then, for once, with truthful breath,
Arswer--Is RMS rIMR TO DAscRi

THE WHEAT CROP.

The wheat crop in this vicinity is looking re-
markably we'll, and there is a good prospect of a
large yield. From other portions of the State We
have intelligence of similar prospects as to this
impostant cereal. An early and large wheat crop
is just what the country needs.-DanviUe (Va,)
Register.
From all sections Of the District We have the
most cheering reports of the wheat crops. The
crop is unusually large and promises the most
abundant yield Chester { s. e. Standard.
One of the Oldest and most successful farmers of
our county remarked day or two ago that he had
not seen such prospect for wheat crop in many
years. --Eutow (Ala) Wig
Crops IN TENNEssEE.-A gentleman writing
from Cook CO., East Tennessee, says that the wheat
crop in that section bids fair to yield abundantly
He also states that the people planting moth
ing but corn, and that il good crop is raised there
will be more hogs fattened in East Tennessee the
coming fall than ever.
The wheat prospects in Alabama are represent
ed as very fattering. A great breadth of land
has been planted in corn.
In this section of North Carolina everybody
speaks of the growing wheat as unusually pro-
missing.

those articles, viz For Corn, t,co dollars and Gy cents

hauling it; For Bacon, ninety cents per pound and the
expense of hauling the to this place, any
Railroad station designated by the Government agents
Tie Government officers at this point have agreed to
pay these prices, and it is hoped that all other
Government agents in this State, in order to secure
uniformity will be governed by similar regulations
The Government must have Corn and Bacon for the
Soldiers, and those who willing to sell their
surplus at these prices bring forward Immediately
will certainly not be troubled by mpressng officer
but if they do not do authorized to say that
impressments will be resorted to.
The subcommittee in the County requested to
send supplies forward possible, and the
Quarermaster at Charlotte will pay the bills. In
order to furnish the Government let every econo
mize at home and reduce if possible the rations OF
their hands FOR the present. least until the waits
OF gallant soldiey fully supplied. Patriotism
as well stern necessity, demands it, and it is conn
