MISCELLANY.
The Armistice Trickery.


The New York correspondent Of the
London STANDARD, a fierce opponent of the
National Administration, says =
There is not the slightest probability, not
to say possibility, that the South will be
willing, under any consideration, to join
hands with .the hated Yankee nation. The
Southerners hate the Yankee of the North
with a passionate hatred and indeed they
have reason Cor that great and ineradcable
loathing they feel for their enemies. To
make the idea ofpeaee practicable, or rather
to save the pride of the Northern people, a
vast deal of bosh appears in the. Northern
newspapers and at present there is an
almost unanimous call for an armistice. Of
course the knowing ones are not deceived
A cessation of hostilities may occur-nay,
is now certain to occur-but the armistice
will be simply for the purpose Of arranging
terms of separation Not only are South
erners determined to have independence,
but a majority of the Northern people see
that they cannot sujugate the South, and
they are not willing to live in close rela-
tons with men who are or would be vir-
tcaliy iheir conquerors. The anti-slavery
fanaticism will be employed to prevent the
Northern people ever desiring Union with
their one time, political brethren of the
South-with the victorious Shareholders .
There is a very important mQvemest on
foot, which may have the effect of still fur
ther; disrupting the unfortunate North
After the independence of the South is
fully recognized, the boundary liaes of the
new republic being the Missouri, Ohio and
Potomac rivers, with West Virginia again
united to the, Old Dominion, it Is proposed
that the great Middle States, with portion
of the Western States, New York, New
Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and
Illinois may come into the Southern Con
federacy under the Montgomery Constitu-
ton. This would rid the new republic Of
these pests, the New England Yankees an
intolerant, meddling, bigoted and avari
cious race, whose combined fanatacisn and
mesnness has disgusted the whole country

A Soldier in Luck--Romatic Story

IA
S The Detroit Free Press tells the fol-
lowing story - l3 sGW
), AT the first battle Of Bull Run there
was soldier by the name of Wilson.
who, like many others on that memor-
able occasion, struggled away from his
command. After walking, or rather run
ming, for several hours he became very
much fatigued, and after taking good
precautions that they were no rebels
either within sound or sight; he lay
down to sleep by the side Of a fence and
slept sweetly and soundly during the
night. .a Hfr raessasne FAB or
Late in the morning, when the sun
was, near midnoon, he woke to find him
self in a strange land, and perhaps
among the bitterest enemies Of the
country. But the demand Of hunger soon
silenced the voice of prudence and eau
tion. Seeing mansion on hill in the
distance, surrounded by parks and mead
ows, orchards and eyergreens, artificial
fountains, and natural streams of clear
running water, in fact everything to
show that it was one of the frst-class old
Virginia plantations, the home ofeourt-
ly elegance and refinement, our soldier,
tired with a weary step and fainting,
famishing heart, knocked at the door Of
the mansion. He vas cordially receiv-
ed, for the old Virginia planter was faith
ful among the faithful few. He remain
ed long enough to recruit his wasted en-
ergies and get information as to the most
direct route to Washington. G n
But the name Of the young soldier was
not forgotten by the planter, nor his
manly bearing and genial temperant.--
The soldier re-enlisted in another regi-
ment, and at the second battle Of Bull
Run was severely though not dangerous
ly wounded. He was taken to the hos
pital at Washington. His old Virginia
friend learned of his illness. He sent
to the hospital and obtained an order for
permission to take him to his own.home
He was removed, when through the kind
ness of the planter and the attention aoi
his daughter, the young man gradually
recovered. 8 ~ t8aa 9d 81
2 z A tender regard sprung up between
the young lady and the young soldier,
and to cut very short the turn of the
story in such cases made and provided
usually takes, they were betrothed.- -
The soldier returned to his Northern
home on furlough. While here he learn
ed of the sudden and severe indisposl-
tion of her who was soon to become his
bride.g II He ahastened to her side and
buried her corpse. TIE old man before
many weeks had elasped told the, young
man that he intended to make him his
heir, that be had no children left, and
mo relatives, except those who were in
the rebellion, and that he should now
share with him his estates. He at once
gave him deed to considerable prop
erty in Chicago.
The young man few weeks since visi-
ted that modern miracle and Babylon
combined, and found that bis little Chi
cago property would realize the hand
some sum Of 100000, being sofered
100000 for single block to- which he
had fallen heir to. But this is not al
in the strange and eyentfulstory. The
old man has but recently died. leaving
all his fortune to this young Union sol
dier, which is now known to be over

A SOLDIER'S LETTER AND A
WOMAN'S ANSWER.

HOSPITAL, September, 1864.
+ write. with great deal of pain, dear girl.
I've not been able before since the fight,
And my brain is still so much in whirl,
That can tell you but little tonight.
I'm wounded-don't start-'tis notvery bad,
Or at least it might be worse; 80 I said,
When / thought of you. I'm sure she'll be glad
To know that 1 am only wounded-not dead.
I've lost my left arm-there. now you know all
Minnie ball shattered it, and fell;
The last that heard was our captains call,
Until-the rest is too painful to tell.
I've had throughout thermost excellent care,
And am doing finely, the surgeon says; ls5
So well, indeed, that the prospect is fair
For homeward trip before many days. n = -
But I've something else, dear Mary, to say,
And I'd say it if it costs me my life;
I've thought of it well-theres other way
You're released from your promise to be my wife
You'll think foolish at first then you'll think
Of the loose, armless coat-seeve at my side;
And your proud and sensitive heart will shrink
From the thought of being cripple's bride.
'Tis a bitter struggle to give sou up,
For I've loved you more than ever of late;
But down to the dregs I've drained the cup,
And I'm calm, though my heart is desolate.
I'm coming home, and of must meet;
My darling this once, one boon I implore-
Let us still be friends-for that will be sweet,
Since now, alas! we be nothing more.
SWEET HOME, September, 1854
Ny Robert, how brave and noble you are!
Too brave and too noble know for me;
But you've too little faith in me by far,
If you believe that I want to be free.
I'm not released from my promise-no, no!
Twas never so sacred to me before
Ifyou could but know how I've longed to 90
And watch by your side, you'd doubt me no more
read your name in the terrible list,
But the tears froze back that sprang to my eye
And fearful pain that could not resist
Crushed my heart till I only longed to die
The blessed tears, by-and-by, came again,
And felt, as you in your letter said,
feeling of gladnoss mid all my pain, <A
That Robert only wounded-not dead. .,a
Oh, darling to think you have suffered so,
And 1, all these long weary miles away; Z
You've needed me very often, I know, s5
While 1 could do nothing but hope and pray,
But hardest of all is the bitter thought
That you have been suffering SO much for me;
Poor Robert your manly letter has brought na
strange melange Of joy and misery
But you're coming home to my arms and heart;
You're right proud and sensitive too;
But I'm only SO when are apart,
And now. shall only be proud of you i4it
You're coming home to happiness and rest
And wait the moment of bssful calm,
When shall be held to Soldiers breast,
BY Patriot Hcro's strong arm!
