MOUNT ARARAT.-Mount Ararat is
6009 feet higher than Elna, and 1928
feet higher than Mount Blanc the lat
ter the point of the greatest elevation in
Europe. 1t is detached from the other
mountains of Asia, and is divided into
two conical peaks. Sir Robert Porter
paints in vivid colors the magnificence Of
the spectacle when he first came in sight
Of Mount Ararat, majestically rising
from a widely extended green plain, fer
tilted by the clear waters of the Aras,
(the ancient Araxes,) and covered with
Arminian villages. In various points of
view the summit has a striking resem-
blance TO ship--a fact which has been
recorded by all travellers to the spot, and
the whole country around is full of ira
ditionary stories relative to Noah's ark
and the food.
1t is common belief among the Ar
mnians and Persians, that the remains
Of the ark still exis; on the summit
Several attempts have been made 10

have any such attempts succeeded
Moving sands which threaten to over
whelm the Traveller, hinty roads which
cut his shoes to shreds, terrible precipi-
ces, with overhanging rocks, and, above
all, nests of snakes have constantly struck
terror into the stoutest hearts, and nearly
in all cases induced the abandonment of
the enterprise. At Erivan, the Arme-
mans show the spot where Noah first
planted the vine, and the old town of
Nakhdjovan (place of descenO is be-
leved to mark the spot where the patri-
arch settled first on quitting the ark.

From the Eleventh Regiment.

DEAR FRIEND HoYT,-I thought
would write you few lines to-day, as
am somewhat at leisure and thinking
about the presidential election, and per
haps it would interest you to know my
political sentiments and views in regard
to the approaching election. 1t seems
very difficult for some to decide whether
i. would be best TO elect Abraham Lin
coin for four years more or not. | have
thought the matter over and by looking
into it with reason and judgment see
plainly that he is the only man that We
can trust to keep our republican govern
ment from crumbling to pieces and fin-
ishing up the great job that we have un>
dertaktn. ! cannot foresee the end Of
this terrible conflict, but do tremble for
our government; feel that it is being
shaken by strong force, but not strong
er than ours which is just and honorable,
to defend and protect good government
founded on good moral principles. On
the other haud they are bound to be mas
ter of slavery or settle this war, which
would be dsgraceful to the American
people. cannot see how this war can
be settled when it is a certain thing that
the south does not want to compromise
in any way or shape if the north has
become convinced that they never can
subjugate the south aud are willing to
acknowledge that they are whipped, then
ii is time to give it up at once, but for
one am not prepared to give it up, al
though / am in the field aud having hard
times in this campaign, besides / am in
danger Of my life, but | am not yet dis
couraged; shall feel sure Of success as
long as the north keep united as well as
they have for the past year, and ] feel it
my duty to use all my influence and pow
er to keep the enemies of our country
out Of power; l would not feel safe to
risk any other man than Lincoln in the
presidential chair. This is strange
war, strange in its tendencies and IN its
Influences, bringing about many things
and operating in various ways, and Mr..
Lincoln has been long enough in the bu-
siness TO understand the nature of the
wheel, while other men with less expert
ence would not be SO trusty as he is. /
hope that he will get hearty support
and elected by handsome majority.
leave this subject to write about ar
my matters we are not doing much but
picket duty, commence a fight now and
then, but do not have many general en-
gagements; the rebels do not feel inclined
TO hold their ground; as soon as they find |
that we are in full force they leave for
some other place ; all they seem to want
is to fix some kind Of trap for us or to
capture our trains, but we have been We.
~ lucky so far, we have lost nothing vet. /

My First Prayer.
BY REV. JOHN A. M'KEoN.

In coming DER our memory's page,
When youth has passed, and sober age,
OF coming death brings dark presage,
We're sometimes led
To mark thereon some little spot
Which at the first may seem blot,
Its meaning long since quite forgot,
AS years have sped.
Our minds for closer thought we brace,
And soon, though faint at first, we trace
Lines leading to the sought-for place
On memory's chart;
And, as each thought its form uprears,
It's meaning by degrees appears,
Drawn out in living characters
Upon our heart.
Twas thus, while musing on the past,
Scanning my life now waning fast,
A retrospective glance l cast
On things that were.
Among the records time had made,
Asthrough life's devious paths Two strayed,
Seeming all notice to erade,
Was my first prayer.
AS saddening thoughts came on apace,
They brought with them the time and place
Which saw death fold in his embrace
My fathers form;
When first my pride Of heart was guelled,
When first with real grief it swelled,
And humbled, / the truth beheld,
That mans WORM
The world could then no aid afford,
And feeling this, sought the Lord
His mercy and His grace implored;
And from that hour
felt that God was all supreme,
And man (although he else might seem,)
Was dust and without aid from Him
Had naught Of powerl
Then He who groaned and bled and died,
A way Of mercy to provide,
Whose help was never yet denied,
When thus implored,
He quickly came to my relief,
He banished all my unbelief,
lie by His love dispelled my grief
And peace restored.
While am jodrneying here below,
Mid changing scenes Of veal and woe,
How much to that first prayer owe,
May ne'er be known,
But faith assures me that faint cry,
Wrung from my heart by misery,
Was heard by Him who sits on high,
On mercy's throne

IRAsBURGH, VERMONT. FRIDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1864

| "Ob, tell me, what can we DO, cried
Hugo "it is on the track which leads
from The town, just the time when they
would be on the road. My poor Ella,
what can l do ?"
"Unarmed as we are, it is only by re-

With that amount Of firewood at our back
I would defy an army of wolves. Look
the chalet stands in recess of rocks ;

range fagots in line from one point TO
the other, leaving an span space in the
center. 81 think with, you, young man,
that your friends are on the road, and
that he wolves are pursuing them, else
we should not hear that continuous howl
ing nearer and nearer. | am leaving
this space for the sledge to pass; the
wolves would never dare to attempt to
follow through such wall of flame as
we can raise"
"Hist, hear the gallop of horse"
said Hugo, kneeiing on the snow.
Then set fire to our barrier; it may
be beacon to them, and show them
where we are"
This was soon done, and the bright
pinewood fame was ere long streaming
into the sky.
Now" said Eric, "get more fagots
ready, for you and must be prepared
to close up the passage Immediately the
sleigh is safe"
but the horses," said Hugo, "will
they pass between two such fires as we
have here? 2"
"No fear they are terrified enough to
leap over a precipice if ii came in their
way-anytbing, everything-lo escape
hose that are after them"
A few minutes passed in breathless
suspense, during which he noise of
horses and wolves became louder and
ouder.
"Ah there they are" cried Hugo,
and the whole pack close behind. They
zee US; Andreas is fogging the horses.

Another second and the sledge was in
