MASONRY AND THE WAR.

An interesting fact is connected with the
death of Capt. Isaac NicolI, of the l24th,
who fell at Gettysburg, and whose obsobules
were recently attended at Washing ton vile
Before his departure for the seat of war
Captain Nicoll was inflated into the Masonic
fraternity by the Newburgh Lodge. After
the news arrived of his fall at Gettysburgh
friends were despatched On to seek for his
other victims on that field, readily found
from the fact that board was placed at the
head of the grave, bearing his name, the
number of his regiment, and q Masonic
symbol. On removing the earth above the
body, cyergreens were found deposited in the
grave. Those enga ged in the disnterment
knew nothing of the significance connected
with this fact, but on their return, a letter
was received from rebel officer, we believe
Georgian, who stated that q testament was
found upon the body of Captain Nlcoll, on the
fly leaf of which was written his name, and
some direction in case of his death, and a
symbol showing his confraternty. True to
the obligations of the brotherhood, though
they had met in hostile array on the battle
field, the rebels stopped to give descent rites
OF sepulchre: and left directions with resi-
dent in the vicinity to have the testament
forwarded to the friends of the deceased. -
BY some accident this was delayed until after
the body was found as stated above.
1t is beautiful and touching incident of
the strength Of that tie of brotherhood which
net even the horrors of that terrible field
could smother or even oosep.-Neuburo

A Model Railroad.

On the Dubuque and Sioux City Railroad
travellers and conductors have the gayesl
possible times. The train is only about two
hours making the first nine miles,
The other day, near Pecsta, a boy ran
alongside the cars for nearly half mile
yelling, Mr.. Cawley Mr.. Cawley !" at the
top of his voice. At length the conductor
herd him, and asked what was the natter
Why" said the boy;" fathers big bull
has jumped on the hind car"
The conductor ran back, and sure enough
on the platform of the hind car stood bic
bovine leisurely chewing his cud, and con.
tentedly viewing the country from his exalted
position. The conductor had the brakes
whstled down, and the noble critter was
helped off. He had been standing on the
side of the track several days, and had
probably deliberately come to the conclusion
that he could wait till the train passed, and
then catch up to it, jump on the hind car and
take free ride. He tried it and won.-
Since then the conductor has placed a COW.
catcher at the rear end of his train, and has
had no more trouble with animals on his
hind car.
The Dubuque and Sioux Oity is a grea,
road for time. You can ride lonqer on i,
than on any other road in the country for
the same amount of fare.

One might have fancied her statue as she
stood there in the oriel window so pale, SO
motonless, with the moon shining full upon
her, enhancing the marble whiteness of her
complexion. Edgar Haughton, as he gazed,
thought he could understand why men,
though paying homage to Rowena Rawdon's
wondrous beauty, dared not speak to her OF
love. Love could have no power over ma
ture cold, passionless such as hers. He an.
preached her.

ply: Your pollteness is intrusive would

A long silence.
"Miss Raw don"
She started slightly as the sound OF his
voice broke the stiffness.
"Such night as this always saddens me,
bringing back viyidly melancholy event that
occurred four years ago in the field of Bala

friend, an English soldier. All day long had

life blood ebbing fast away. l knelt beside
him. He knew me smiled. and, raising one
hand, pointed to ring which glltterred on a

the words, TO my wife,

upon my husband, which he pretended to
prove to him, causing him to doubt the love
of his wife. In his despair he joined the army.
The rest you know. You understand my
manner towards you, of late. You were his
friend: you were with him at the last. You
said truly, for me there is but love for life
time. Ny heart is in the soldiers grave
Edgar Haughton in silence took in his the
hand that still rested on his arm, and placed
upon one of the delicate fingers the ring he
had always worn. As he did so tear fell

"For me, as for you, there is no second

reposed in me. 1t will never be betrayed
God bless you, Rowena." and with passion
ate kiss upon the hand he had retained in his
clasp, he left her.
They never met again. Edgar Haughton
is an old man now, but still fresh in his heart
lives the remembrance of the only woman he
ever loved. Yearly he makes pilgrimage to
the grave where she has so long peacefully

The LOST lND1AN.-Hon. George B. Smith
of Wisconsin, tells an Indian story, in illus
tration Of the position and pretensions of
certain "life long Democrats" now in the
camp of the Abolitionists, which runs as
follows:
An old Indian having strayed from bis
wigwam, found himself lost on trying to
return to it. After looking about into
strange "lodges" here and there, the Indian
exclaimed IN dismay, "Injun lost !" but re-
covering himself and unwilling to acknowl.
edge such short. t.sightedness, continued,
drawing himself up: "No-Injun no lost
wigwam lost-(and striking his breast) In.
jan here -
So with the wandering Democrats they
are unwilling to acknowledge they have stray
ed from the party-it is the party that is lost.
The bolter says, "No, I'm no boted, it 10 the
party that has bolted. I'm here" (and

"It therefore becomes us 40 men who
know our rights, and have the courage to
maintain them,' to speak to those recreants to
truth. justice and honor, who have flched
from us all those noble rights which freemen
love, in tones which may not be misunder-
stood, telling them that our Coastitstion shall

be deferred by threats, menaces, insults and
outrages, from maintaining the noble heritage
which we have received from the hands of the
