THE PRESIDENT AT ANTIETAM.--" Man
haitian" the New York correspondent Of
the London Morning Herald, tells the fol.
lowing anecdOte of President Lincoln:
Fancy the President, sir, calling upon
an officer, on the bloody field Of Antietam,
to sing him song tits fact that Pres
ident Lincoln, when he visited the battle
field Of Antietam, before the cOrpses had
been buried, called upon an officer, who
had been reported to him as good song.
singer, to step out and sing me q song,
and then, in an open plain, in hearing Of
the dying and in sight of the sightless
dead, the officer sung for the President Of
the United States, Jim along Josey.'--
What a splendid but much abused ruler
old Nero was. His tyranny never slaugh-
tered as many bodies as Lincoln's incom-
potency, and, though he fdded while
Rome was burning, he never called out
one of his officers to sing Jim along
Josey.'"
1t is notifying beyond measure that
the Chief Magistrate of the American
people should be thus represented before
the eyes of the world We trust that he
will at once instruct his organ in Wash
ington or in New York to deny peremp-
torily the truth of this statement. One
or the other of them should at once inform
the public by authority that it was not an
officer (of the army at leasD upon whom
President Lincoln called for song among
the fresh graves Of the dead soldiers at
Antictam, and that the song which was
sung to him there was not "Jim along
Josey," but was Picayune Butler"

The sad, sweet lesson Of loving,
And all its power for pleasure aud pain,
Been slowly, sadly proving.
Aud all that is LEFT Of the glittering dream,
With its thousand brilliant phases,
IL handful Of dust aud coffin bid
A coffin under the daisies.
And thus forever throughout the world
Is love and sorrow proving;
There are many sorrowful things in life,
But the saddest Of all is loving.
Life often divides far wider than death,
And fortune high wall raises;
But better far, than two hearts estranged,
IL grave thickly starred with daisies.
And 90 am glad that we lived AS we did,
Through the summer Of life together,
And that one Of us tired and lay down to rest
Ere the coming OF winter weather.
For the sadness Of love is growing cold,
1t is one Of its surest phases,
80 thank my God, with breaking heart,
For that grave now covered with daisies.

the ingenuity of his friend and hero.

HARD on BmGADIERs.-O Orpheus C.
Kerr, in one of his letters from Washing

Captain, there's something missing
from the rear guard"
William assumed thoughtful demea-
nor, and says he:
Is it missfire
"No," said the Lieutenant, agitatingly,
I" but we miss two -"
Not baggage wagons !" said William,
giving such a start his war horse fell
upon his knees. Don't tell me that
two wagons are missing!"
"Why, no." said the Lieutenant, with
emotion, it's not two wagons that We
miss, but two Brigadiers |"
"Ah," says William, tanning himself
with his cap, how you alarmed me!
thought at first it was two wagons. Let
the procession go on, and III send for
two more Briggs the next time have a

The PROFESSOR AND STUDENT.--A Pro
fessor Of Latin in the University Of Glas-
gov, now no more, having desired the
students to give list of their names in
Latin, was greatly surprised at seeing
written on a slip Of paper the name
johannes Ovum NUvum."
After 10 vain seeking for translation
Of this, be at last became convinced that
II was either one Of those dark Latin pas
SageG, which even the skill of Bentley
would have failed in solving, or it was a
hoax.
DE. therefore next day. 10 the class,
read aloud the three dark words, and dc.
sired the writer Of them to stand up.
One Of the class Immediately arose.
What are yOu:" said the Professor.
A poor scholar, SIR" was the answer.
very poor scholar, indeed, sir, or
you never would, have written such stuff
as this johannes Ovum Novum.' That
can't be your name, sir !"
don't know" said the scholar. where
you can End better Latin: my name is
John Eggnew. Ovum for Egg, Novum
for New-Ovum Novum, Eggnew."
The Professor, seeing that he had rath
er the worst of it, Immediately laid his
fingers on his forehead, and looking at his
hopeful pupil, who was standing some.
what :s tke. attitade Of dTiii.sergeant,
exclaimed, in pitiful voice:
Alas alas Something is wrong
here, no doubt"
May be go" shouted "Ovum Novum;"
something may be wrong there, but, ,"

There is nothing wrong here
