He wonder ed how she, rather than some strong

She did so.

A special correspondent of the Chicago Post
"a democratic paper) wires from Grand juno
ton, Tenn, on the 9th inst, and piles up more
testimony against the Infamous conduct Of Col
Murphy, at Holly Springs:
Col. Murphy had about 1900 men fit for duty
and enc piece Of artillery, which was not even
brought into position. lie had also between
one and two bales of cotton, with which breast
works might have been constructed in an hour
sufficient TO have commanded every possible
way OF approach. His means were amps sur
fcient had they been used, to have held the on
envy in check until the arrival OF Col Marsh o.

FOR Il KESosHA TRLKGAAPH
TO she Weary.

In an hour of sad responding,
When my life seemed clouded DER
BY a gloomy veil of darkness
That would tighten never more
Came a voice OF sweetest music,
Floating clearly round my head
And to cheer my dropping brothers,
l Will write DOWN what it said.
care you weary, very weary
Does your lot seem dark and drearH
Listen Hear the angel Patience
Whisper softly in your ear
20 repine not, but press onward,
IT'S the comrgon lot Of all;
Behind the cloud the sun IS shining,
III each life some rain must fan
Do lies sorrows seem too many,
appointments come too oft?
Hark a voice calls to you gently,
Nov it murmurs low and soft
Hear it tell how once there wandered
On the earth q God-like form,
Weak and worn by many sorrows,
And by prosecutions storm
How when on a brow so lovely,
Thorns by cruel hands were bound,
And when hosts of heartless ~scofers
Close about Him gathered round,
And when to the cross they nailed Him,
Aud into his bleeding side
Darts they thrust,-aVen then he pleaded,
Father, oh forgive land died.
Died and now he reigns in heaven,
But his cross he bids you take,
And with patient trust, .a he did,
MeekF bear it for his sake.
Bitter sorrows he doth give you,
And the heavier cross you bear
More will be your 10Y in heaven,
Brighter will your crown be there.
Are you doubling, darby doubling
That Gods love is ever nigh?
See Faiths finger pointing upward,
Mark the glory of her eye
Hear her voice of sweetest cadence
AS His words i. singeth DER,
Pear not. 1 am always with you,'
o believe, and doubt no more"
