G1s. soorT's MorhER.-In the opening para
graph OF his autobiography which is now in
press, General Soott.psys the following beauti-
ful tribute 10 his mother. He says:
"AccordinE to The family Bible, was born
June 1S, 1855, oh'the farm which inheriied,
some fourteen miles from Petersburg, virginia.
My parents, William Scott and Ann Mason both
natives Of the same neighborhood, intermarried
in 1880. In my sixth year lost my
father, gallant lieutenant, captain in the Revo-
lutienAry Army, and q successful farmer. Hap-
PLY, my dear mother was spared to me eleven
years longer, and il, in my now protraoted ca
reer, have achieved anything worthy of being
written, anything that my couutrymen are likely
to honor in the next century, it is from the les
sons Of that admirable parent that derived the
Inspiration"

Yet there the falrest bellies did meet;
The rural scene
Looked gay and green.
Nor did there lack good things to eat.
But Bob had on thick black suit
And. as the heat
Did on him beat
He felt detected, past dispute.

Since then, he has with truth confessed
That every joy

The Fashionable Lady'u Prayer.

The Fashionable LadyI Prayer.
"Give us this day our daily bread"
And pies and cakes besides,
To load the stomach, pain the head,
And choke the vital tides;
Aud if too soon q friend decays,
Or dies In agony,
Well talk Of Gods mysterious ways"
And lay it all to Thee.
Give US, to please a morbid taste,
In spite Of pain and death,
Consumption strings around the waist,
Almost to stop the breath;
Then, il infrmity attends
Our stinted progeny,
In visitation for our sins,
Well lay il all 10 Thee.
Give us good houses, large and tall
To look the cabins down,
And servants lodging at our call,
Aud shaking at our frown
The poor, however worthy they,
We'll treat quite scornfully,
Then sixpence pay, communion day.
And settle up with Thee.
We do disdain to toll and swsat,
Like girls Of vulgar broodG
OF labor give us not bit,
For physio or for food;
Aud il, for lack Of exercise,
We lack the stamina
OF those We trample and despise,
Wen lay it all to Thee.
If any curse we have forgot,
That on votary
Fa'hiou let's fall, withhold it not.
But send It previously;
And If too hard the milestone light,
For frail humanity;
Wen never blame ourselves mite,
But lay it all to Thee.
Yes, give US coffee, vino, and tea,
The hot things Introduce
The stomach's warm bath, thrice . day,
To weaken and reduce I
And If, defying natures laws,
Dyspeptic We must be-,
We scorn to search for kuman cause,
But lay it all to Thee.

HISTORY or A sWoRD.--The Memphis Bulle-
tin gives long history OF a sword which was
captured from Major william Stpbbs at Shiloh.
II had been presented to him by his fellow
ductors on the Chicago and Rock Island Rail
Road, and bore m appropriate inscription
When captured II fell into the hands Of q Rebel
Lieutenant Colonel who was taken prisoner al
Corinth by q private of the Tenth Missouri
The private, having no use for it, gave it to his
lieutenant.
After the fall OF vicksburg the original owner
Of the sword was exchanged, and the Missouri
private, reading q list in a Chicago paper, saw
the name Of the officer which was the same as
that upon the sword. He wrote to the Major,
who answered in person, and the sword was re-
turned. 1t had passed through three campaigns,
sometimes welded for and sometimes against
the Union.

PEACE.

II . L. a. d.
From the Richmond Enquirer, Oct, Id, 1868
Save On our tcrIns we can accept no peace
whatever, and must fight till dOonisday rather
then yield an iOta ef them, and our terms are
Recognition by the enemy of the indepen-
1ence of the Confederate States.
Withdrawal Of the Yankee soldiers from Mary
land until that State shall decide by "a free vote
whether she shall remain in the old Union or
ask admission into the Confederacy.
Consent on the part of. the Federal govern
ment TO give up to the Contederacy it's proper
ton of the navy as it stood at the time of the
secession, or 10 pay for the same
Yielding upof all pretension on the part Of
the Federal government to that portion OF the
old Territories which lies west of the CoDieder-
ate States.
Equitable settlement OD the basis of our alb
solute independence and equal rights of all ac-
counts Of the public debt and public lands, and
the advantages accruiDg from foreign treaties.
These provisions, we apprehend, comprise the
minimum of what we must require before we lay
down our arms That is to say, the North must
yield ALIVE nothing. The whole pretensiOp
of that country TO prevent by force the separa-
tiou of the States must be abandoned, which
will be equivalent to an avoWal that our eDemies
were wrong from the first and, of course. as they
waged a causeless and wicked warupon ms, they
ought in strict justice TO be required, according
TO usage III such cases, to re-imburse TO us all
our expenses aud losses in the course of that war
Whether this late ProvisO is to he insisted upon
or not, certain we are that we cannot have any
peace at all until we shall be in position moi
only Ia demand aud exact, but also to eBIurce
and collect, treasure foTaurO own re- endorsement
out of the wealthy cities in the ememy's country.
In other words unless we can destroy or scatter
their armies, and breaI up their government we
can have DO peaGe, and IL we can do that, then
| we ought not only tO eXtOrt from them our own
full terms and ample acknowledgement of their
wrong but als0 hgntlsome indemnity for the
trouble and expense caused To Ous by their crime.
