Keep the Soldiers Letters.

sweetheart, keep that bundle sacredly!
Each word will be historic, each line in
valuable, When peace has restored the
ravages of war, and our Nations gran.
dure has made this struggle the most
memorable of those great conflicts by
which ideas are rooted into society, these
penpictureS of the humblest events, the
merest routine details of the life led in
winning National unity and freedom,
will be priceless. Not for the historian
sake alone, do say, keep those letters,
but for your sakes who receive them,
and ours who write them. The next
skirmish may stop our pulses forever, and
our letters, full of love for you, will be
our only legacy beside that of having
died in noble cause. And should we
survive the war, with health and limb
unipjured, or bowed with sickness OF
crippled with wounds, those letters will
be dear mementoes to us of dangers past
of trials borne, Of privations suffered, Of
comrades beloved. Keep our letters
then--and write to US all the home news
and gossip" Bid us God speed
speak kindly, loving, courageous word;
to us. If you can't be Spartaus--and

Abolition Ideas illogical.

1t has been often said that the Aboli-
tion mind is illogical. There is that in
its construction which refuses to yield
to the simplest rules Of logic, and hence
it is at fault whenever feeling, Or rather
interest, is involved. Ifthis needed con-
frmation, we have it in the way these
editors Of minor Republican journals
i, treat the Vallandigham matter. They
are unable to separate the individual
from the fundamental principles violated
in his case; they are urging antijudicial
Impressions ofhis guilt, as sufficient apol-
gy for the manner of "his taking off. y
On the other hand Democratic papers do
not defend" Vallandlgham-they would
n leave that to him and his counsel before
: the court. But they protest against
martial law being exercised where mar.
tial law has not been proclaimed, and
where civil law is still supreme This
is the distinction between Democratic
and Abolition views of matter,.> One is

An Ingenious Test.

A short time ago merchant, in pros
ecuting his morning tour among the
suburbs, found, as he had walked along,
purse containing a considerable sum
of money. He observed lady at some
distance, who he thought might be the
owner and loser. Determined to be
correct in the party to whom he deliver
ed it, he fell upon strange yet ingeni-
GUS plan to effect this. He resolved to
act the part Of a poor, distressed man,
and went boldly forward, hat in hand,
and asked aims which was answered with
q polite "Go awayl I have nothing to
give you" Tho poor man, however,
persisting in his entreaties would not go
until he had got assistance for his fam.
ishing wife and children. At last the
lady condescended; but to her dismay
found the werewith was gone. The
merchant, with polite bow, returned
the purse with the advice in future to
be more, generous to the distressed,

DewdrOps of Wisdom.

If the waves threaten to engulf you
don't add, by your tears to the amount Of

Flattery is like money; and if it were
not for our own vanity, could never pass
in payment.
There is but one solid pleasure in life
and that is our duty. How miserable
then, how unwise, how objectionable,
are they, who make that one a pain,
The best dowery to advance the mar
riage of q young lady, is nildeneSs in
her countenance, is wisdom in her speech;
modesty in her behavior, and virtue in
her life.
Affections are Gods workmen upon
our hearts to pull down the pride and
carmel security of them; and being so,
their nature is changed; they are return
cd into blessings and beniGts.
Temptation it seige, Satan is the
enemy without the walls laboring to
