PASSAGE or Tile NEW ENLISTMENT BILL
The bill authorizing President Lincoln to
enlist as soldiers as many colQred men as he
may deem necessary passed the House Mon
day, by a vote of SO to 81. A strenuous
and desperate Resistance was made by the
Democratic members of the House There
are already some six thousand of them en-
rolled, and in active service. The opera
tons OF the Peace men in making yoluteer-
ing and drafting impracticable, has rendered
tAe passage Of this bill necessary.

the other day, and told the keeper that neigh
Dor of his had entrusted him with some money
f9 9o sReRd e n tto tRe best sayaatage and he meant
He had been very well treated in Boston by
the traders, and would not part with his friends
money until he found man who would. treat
him about right. With the utmost suavity the
trader says:
Il think can treat you to your liking no w
do you want to be treatedY
Well says the farmer with a leer in his eye.
In the first place want glass of toddy,'
which was forthcoming. Now will have
nice cigar said the countryman. twas prompt
ly handed him, lesurely lighted, and then throw
ing himself back, with his feet as high as his
head, he commenced putting away like Dutch
man.
Now what do you want to purchase 2 says
the storekeeper.
My neighbor handed me two cents when I
loft home TO buy him a plug of tobacco an
swcred the farmer, 'have you got the articles'
The storekeeper stopped instanter, and the
next thing that was heard from him was, that
his sides were shaking and his face on fire as
he was relating the sell to his friends down
town.

them. They were beaten out Of their senses
by company of evil disposed persons, who
juiuped up from the pit to their own boards and
completely gutted their green room. They re-
cover and rush to the Potomac only to see it
filed with the slaughtered bodies of their COM
parions. Mcclellan retircs from the profession,
but the cobbler has no choice in the matter; he
must go with Burnside and play con to Rich
mond' still another time. Saturday, the 18th
Of December, sees him and the play finally damn
cd in the magnificent amphitheatre at Freder-
icksburg, and Monday, the 18th of December,
finds him back again in Stafford, satisfied that
the pay cannot be played. As he digs the
Graves Of his slain companions, as he counts The
hundreds of miles he has Travelled by land and
water, the hardships he has endured, the ditch

ads of comrades he has buried, il must occur
to this simple, ill-fated cobbler from Massnehu

HOW TO GET RICH.

Do you wish to be rich 1t is perfectly easy
Be as mean as dirt. Cheat everybody you can
friend or foe--father and mother-sister and
brother. Buy nothing that YOU cannot sell a..
gain and double your money. When you pur-
chase, declare the article is not worth half what
is asked for it and screw the seller down to one
third his price and be sure when you sell the
same, to declare it worth double what you ask.
Never. give away a cent Kick the beggar in
the-Hem at the contribution box--or feel all
over your pockets to give them impressions.
that you forgot to bring your money Belong to
no society whatever-litterary, religious or SCI
enti6c. Take no newspaper. In making
change always keep the half cent, and invaria-
bly, give twelve cents for shilling. Dispute
every bill presented, and if you get an opportu-
nifty erase the figures and lessen the charge.
Charge as much as you can get for your goods,
and never have any conscience in such matters.
Endorse no notes. Never lend-though it may
save a neighbor from failing. Always exact
interest on y6tfr duos-and trust no one you
are not certain will pay when yousend the bill.
When you buy, make the article weigh as little
as possible, but on selling the same be sure they
weigh something more, even though you have
TO stow IN some useless article-Iike our friend
on the wharf, who in selling old junks of rags,
to make them solid, always shovel in mud from
the docks so the story goes-we do not vouch
for it. Never purchase anything but what is
absolutely necessary. What have you to do
with the luxuries of life. Never ride, sail or
90 to places of public amusement unless you
can make others pay yonr score. Eat hasty
puddings and molasses and pudding for dinner,
AMI mixture of both for supper for rarity.
Examine your cupboard, your cellar and swil
pail, to see that nothing is lost, and occasion
ally give your wife a lecture on economy. Wear
cowhide shoes, and make your clothes of the
stoutest cloth. In fine love yourselE-beneft-
ing no one and dong mo good to the world
Grasp all you can and hold all you can get.
Make every mill tell. And you will be rich,
this you may rely upon, but--here is an unfor-
tunate but in the way-you viii haven friends
will detest you and scorn you be-
sides, you will throw up your interests in both
worlds, first starve in this, and be damned in
thatwhich IS to come.

Unwilling alike to be polied or shot,
Though sought them wildly found them not.
And as years roll on, and the war at last
Becomes thing of the time long past,
Men will say, as l totter along, aside,
"Alas! alas! how that old man lied"
o the terrible blow!
l wish | could know where those men lie hid,
Though what were the use if could or did?
For they've either deserted me clean and quite,
Or have taken an oath not to vote or fight.
All sad is my fate! I'm common jest,
A bird that's unhappiy fouled its nest,
And my hopes that the spring saw freshly bloom
Lie a-mouldering now in old John Browns tomb
D the terrible blow!"
