tbs morn-the sea breeze seems to bring
Joy, health and freshness on its wing;
Bright flowers, TO me all strange and new,
are glittering in the early dew;
And perfumes rise from every grove
As incense to the clouds that move
Like spirits DER yon. welkin clear
But am sad-theu art not here.
lis morn-a calm, unbroken sleep
Is on the blue waves Of the deep;
A soft haze, like a fairy dream,
Is floating over wood and stream,
And many broad magnolia flower
WITHIN its shadOwy woodland bower,
Is cleaning like lovely star
But am sad-thou art afar
IT'S eve-o'er earth the sunset skies
Are painting their own Eden dyes;
The stars come down, and trembling, glow,
Like sea-gems in the waves below;
And like some unseen spirit, the breeze,
Seems lingering mid the orange trees,
Breathing its music round the spot -s1.-
But am sad see thee not
lis midnight-with soothing spell
The far tones of the ocean swell,
Soft as a mothers cadence, mild,
Low, breathing DER her sleeping child
And on each wandering breeze are heard
The rich notes of the moeking bird,
In many q wild and wondrous lay
But am sad-thou art away.
sink in dreams-soft, sweet and clear,
Thy own dear voice is in my ear;
Around my cheek thy trssses twine
Thy own loved hand is clasped IN mine;
Thy own soft lip to mine is pressed
My head is pillGwed on thy breast;
Oh, have all my heart holds dear,

THE LECISTATuRE.

The Legislature, in accordance with
the proclamation Of the Governor, con-
vened in extra session on Monday. All
are interested in the proceedings Of that
body, and will be on the qui g9ve to
learn what action it will take. The
members will feel that they are expect
ed by their constituents to do something
for the salvation of the country, and
they will be sure to do something, but
whether they will do more good than
harm remains to be seen after their &C.
ton has been taken. In the meantime
the public Will be watching them. with
the vigilance of Argus. Though Of a
hopeful temperament, we are not very
sanguine that that body Of Solons will
do much to advance the interests
of the sold Commonwealth" Their
session will cost a good deal Of money,
but sswho cares for expenses" as the boy
said who had expended a cent for gin

In these times of high prices, specu:
lation and extortion, the condition of,the
poor is pitiable in the extreme. We
have unfortunately in our midst, as in
all other communities, those heart:ess
wretches who, to make money in haste,
hesitate not to 'grind the faces of the
poor" Those who have nothing to sell
and everything to buy are at the mercy
Ct those who have the articles they need,
whether they be provisions or clothing
The mei chants and farmers can
retaliate upon each other, but those who
have nothing to sell are between the
and neither milestone. Something
should be done for the relief Of this I'M
fortunate class: There are many in it
who, this winter, viii be unable to sup
ply themselves with the necessaries OF
life. We should not rely upon volunta-
ry contributions, because they impose
all the burden upon the kind and gen
erous, whilst the close. listed, though
they may be much more able to give,
do nothing for the relief of the poor
The best way to equalize the burden is
to impose tax for the special purpose
OF relieving the wants OF the needy, and
to tax each in proportion to his means.
P. S.-Since the aboye was written,
the Town Council, we are pleased to see,
has taken such action as is recommend
ed in the above. See ordinance pub
lished in our advertising columns.
Staunton spectator. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1849-1896, 1863-09-08
FROM THE RAPPAHANNoCK.

AS anticipated, the Yankees have
made an attempt to repossess the gun
boats Reliance and Satellite, recently
captured by Lieut.. Wood and party in
the mouth Of the Rappahannock. The
boats were taken up the river to Port
Royal, where the work Of dismantling
them has been prosecuted with com,
mendable vigor for several days. The
machinery of the Satellite has been re
moved to a place of safety. The work
men were engaged upon the Reliance,
rhen large force of the Yankees, with
6pieces of artillery, appeared on the OPP
posite bank of the river and opened fire
upon them. The Smelling was kept up
pretty vigorously for some time, and
was replied to f.om the guns which had
been placed in position to repel the at
tack. Several of the Yankee shot took
effect on the upper works of the Reli-
ance, which were considerably dam
aged, but, fortunately, no one on our
side was hnrt. It is believed that the
Yankees did not fare so well, as several
OF their men were seen to fall during the
engagement.
About two o'clock in the afternoon.
the entire force disappeared, and, went
back to Stafford county-Rlch. Wig
Of Friday last.
