THE MoTHERLEss DRUMMER BoY.-B. F. Taylor, in a recent letter to the. Chicago Jour- nal, thus refers to the story of little Johnny Clem, the motherless atom of drummer boy, aged ten, at the battle of Chickamauga. He says:
 l At Chickamauga, he filled the office of e marker carrying the suidon whereby they form the lines a duty having it's counterpart in the surveyors more peaceful calling, in the flag man. who tuttcrs the red signal along the metes ana ana bounds. On the Sunday of the battle, tho llttle fellow s occupation gone, he sicked up a gun that had slipped from some dying hand, provided himself with ammunition, and began putting m the periods quite on his own account. blazing away close to the ground like a fire.A m tne grass. Late in tue waning day the waif ieit almost ulone in the whirl of the battle, a reoel Colonel dashed up and looking down at him, ordered him to surrender Surrender be shouted, you little d-d son of
 The words Were hardly out of tbe rebels mouth, when Johnny brought his piece to or der arms. and as his hand slipped down to the hammer, he pressed it back, swung the gun to the position of charge bayonet, and as the of hcer raised his sabre to strike the piece aside, the glanclng barrel lifted into range. and the proud Colonel tumb'cd d' ad from his horse, his lips fresh stained with the syllable of vile re- proach he had flung upon mothers grave in the hearing of the child.
 fe" swit moments licked off by musket shots, and the tiny gunner was swept up at n rebel swoop, and bore away prisoner, Sol. diers, bigger but no better, were taken with nm, only |" be washed back again by surge ot Federal troopers, and the prisoner of thirty minutes was again John Clem of ours and ten. Rosecrans made him sergeant, and the stripes ef rank covered him all over like a mouse Tn harness, and the daughter of Mr. Secretary Chase presented him n silver metal appropriately inscribed which he wortbily wears Q royal order of honor, upon his left breast and all men conspire to spoil him. but since few ladies can ge, ut him here, perhaps he may be saved.

THE FLAGS OF WAR.

Y The flags of war like storm-birds fly,
 The charging trumpets blow; Yet rolls no thunder in the sky,
 No earthquake strives below. And, calm and patient, Nature keeps
 Her ancient promise well, Though CT her bloom and grsenness sweeps The battles breath of hell. And still she walks in golden hours Through harvest-happy farms, And still she wears her fruits and flowers Like jewels on her arms What mean the gladness of the plain, This joy of eve and morn, The mirth that shakes the board of grain, And yellow locks of cornf Ahi eyes may we'll be fall of tears, And hearts with hate are hot; But even-paced come round tho years, And Nature changes not. She meets with smiles our bitter grisf, With songs our groans of pain She mocks with tints of flower and leaf The war-feld's crimson stain. Stili, in the cannon's pause, we hear Her sweet thanksgiving psalm; Too near to God for doubt or fear,
 She shares tn eternal calm. She knows the seed lies safe below
 The fires that blast and burn For all the tears of blood we SOW
 She waits the rich return. She sees with clearer eye than ours, The good of suffering born,- The hearts that blossom like her flowers, And ripsn like her corn. o, give to us her finer ear 1
 Above this stormy din, We too would hear the bells of cheer Ring peace and freedom inl
 PADDLE YOUR OWN CANOE" Up this world, and down this world, And over this world and through,
 Thoagh drifted about,
 And tossed without, Why, "paddle your own eanoe." What though the sky is heavy without clouds, Or shining aeld of blue;
 If the bleak wind blows:
 Or the sunshine glows, Still "paddle your own canoe." What if breakers rise up ahead, With dark waves rushing through,
 Move steadily by
 With downcast eye, And paddle your own eanoe." If . hurricane rise in the midnight skies, Aad the stars are lost to view,
 Glide safely along,
 With smile and song, And "paddle your own canoe" Up this world, and down this world, And over this world aad through.
 Though weary and worn,
 Bereft and fororn, Still "paddle your own canoe." There are daisies springing along the shores Blooming and sweet for you;
 There are rese-hued dyes
 In the autumn skies Then "paddle your own canoe"

1 AN HONEST DEAcoN.-Deacon N. was an honest old codger, kind neigbor. and good Christian, believing in the Presbyterian creed to the fullest extent; but lackuday the dea- con would occasionally get exceedingly mellow and almost every Sunday at elmer he would indulge in his favorite cider brandy to such an extent that it was with difficulty that he reached his pew in the broad aisle near the pulpit, and between the minister and tie village squils One Sunday morning the parsou told his flock that he should preach sermon touching many glaring sins so conspicuous among them--and he hoped they would listen attentively. and not finch if he happened to be severe. The after noon came, and the house was full everybody turned out to see their neighbors dressed down by the minister, who, after we'll opening his sermon, commenced upon the transgressors with loud voice, with the question, Where is the drunkard ? A solemn pause succeeded the inquiry, when up rose Deacon N, his face drink, and sreadying himself as we'll as he could by the pew rail, looked up and replied iu trembling piping voice, Here am' Of course constcrnation in the congrega. ton was the result of the honest deacon's re- sponse however, the parson went on with his remarks, as he had written them, comment ing severely upon the drunkard. and closed by warning him to forsake at once such evil hab. it's if he would hope for salvation and flee from the wrath to come.
 An now,' asked the preacher. in his loudest tones-where is the hypocrte? | A pause, but no one responded. Eyes were turned upon this and that man. but the glauces seemed to be directed to the sqnires pew and, indeed, the parson seemed to sqlint hard in | that direction. The deacon saw where the shaft was aimed, or where it should be aimed, and rising once more, leaned over his pew to tue squire, whom he tapped on the shoulder, and thus adressed him,
 Come, squire, why don't you get up? I did when he called on me-
 BIEEsTApT is engaged on large picture, which he intends to finish this summer, of "Mount Hood in Oregon" The N. r. Post says it will be his finest work. It adds: 1 This great snowy peak, rising far above the mountains surrounding it, gleams like an i'm mense opal under the sky. The dazzling whiteness of it's sun-lighted portions, the bluish tints which mark those which lie in shadow, and the rose ate hued atmosphere which envelopes it's base, passing by imper- ceptible gradstions into the clear and impalpa- ble atmosphere above, are marvelously wrought.
