Ihe ancient art of talking is falling
into decay. 1t is an ascertainable fact,
that in proportion to an increased
amount ofpepulation, the aggregate bulk
OF conversation is lessening. People
nowadays have something else to do
than talk not only do they live in such
hurry that there is only leisure for iusr
comparing ideas as to the weather, bre
they have each and all gros. quantity
TO do which puts talking on, Of the
question. If persons remain at home.

read il they go to the sea side, they
read we have met misguided indiyidu-
ais out In the open fields with books in
hand; young folks have been seen
stretched underneath trees, and upon
the banks of rivers, poring over pages :
on the tops OF mountains, in the desert
or within forest-everywhere men now
pull printed sheets from their pocket,
and IN the earliest, latest, highest oceu.

The Field of Gettysburg.

The following prize poem was written by IL
poet and vocalist, James G.. Clark, upon tn
death Of soldier by the name of Hunnistol
who was found after the battle of Gettysbur
with the portrait of his three little children i
his hand
Upon the field of Gettysburg,
TIE summer sun was high,
When freedmen met her traitorous foe,
Beneath Northern sky
Among the heroes of the North,
Who swelled her grand array.
Who rushed, like mountain~agies forth.
From happy homes away,
There stood man of humble frame,
A sire of children three,
And gazed within little frame
Their pictured forms to see
And blame him not if in the strife
He breathes soldiers prayer
90, Father guard the soldiers wife,
And for his children carep
Upon the field of Gettysburg
When morning shone again,
The crimson clouds of battle burst
In streams of fiery rain
Our legions quelled the awful food
Of shot, and steel, and she'll
While banners marked with ball and blood
Around them rose and fell
And none more nobly Won the name
Of Champion Of the Free,
Than he whe pressed the little frame
That held his children three
And none were braver in the strife :,
Than he who breathed the prayeb-s
90, father guard the soldiers wife,
And for his children care"
Uron the field Of Gettysburg
The full moon slowly rose,
She looked and saw ten thousand brows
All pale in Deaths repose
And down besides silver stream,
From other forms away,
Calm as a warrior in dream,
Our fallen oomrade lay.
Hi. limbs were cold, his sghtless eyes
Were fixed upon the three
Sweet stars that rose in memory's skies
To light him DER deaths sen
Then honored be the soldiers life,
And hallowed be his prayer
90, Father guard the soldiers wife,
And for his children care"

Its generally prejudice, when the
people imagine that beautiful landscaos
Is requisite TO the enjoyment Of nature.
Undoubtedly this greatly enhances its
attractions but the pleasure we feel ia
not dependent on this. Natural objects
themselves, even when they make no
claim TO beauty, excite the feelings, and

There is no provision in either for

many a generous individual advanced
