SOMEBODY'S DARLING.

Into ward of the whitewashed halls,
Where the dead and the dying lay,
Wounded by bayonets, shells and balls,
Somebody's darling was borne one day
Somebody's darling, so Young and so brave
Wearing yet on his sweet pale face
Soon to be hid in the dust in the grave
Fhe lingering light of his boyhood's grace.
Matted and damp are the curls Of gold
Kissing the snow of that fair young brow,
Pale are the lips of delicate mould
Somebody's darling is dying now.
Back from his beautiful blue veined brow
Brush his wandering waves of gold;
Gross his hands on his bosom now
Somebody's darling is still and cold.
Kiss him once for somebody's sake,
Murnur prayer all soft and low
One bright curl from its fair mates take
They were somebody's pride, you know.
Somebody's hand hath rested there;
Was it a mothers, soft and white
Or have the lips of a sister fair
Been baptized in their waves of lightf
God knows best | He has somebody's love;
Somebody's heart enshrined him there
Softly waited his name above,
Night and morn, on the wings of prayer.
Somebody wept when he marched away,
Looking so handsome, brave and grand!
Somebody's kiss on bis forehead lay,
Somebody chung to bis parting hand.
, Somebody's watching end waiting. GOr him,
learning to hold him again to her heart
And there he lies with his blue eyes dim,
And the smiling, child like lips apart.
Tenderly bury the fair young dead
Pausing to drop on his grave tear.
Carve on the wooden slab Ger his head:
"Somebody's darling slumbers here"

. OUR BLocKADE-R RUNNERS AND OUR NAVAL OFF,
CEEs.-There IS one singular fact connected with
cur blockade-running vessels, to which, we think,
the attention of the Navy Department ought to be
directed, if it has not already been. Only single
one of them has been lost while under the COM
mand of officers of the navy Officers of the ma
Wy, in the meanwhile, have commanded many of
them and made many trips. The Coquette, for in
stance which was the most Indifferent of all our
ships, aud W hich has now been sold, made nine
FOUND trips under the command of Lieutenant Car
ter, and saved them every one clearing for the Gov
ernment at least six hundred thousand dollars
The Robert E. Lee, the best ship we had, was sue
cessul in all her numerous trips as long she was
under the command of Lieutenant Wilkinson
The first trip she madeafter the command had been
transferred to person who was not an officer Of
the navy she was beached and captured or sunk.
While the officers of the navy have been
cessful in all their many trips except one, every
ship not commanded by an officer Of the navy has
been lost The inference is irresistible. None
but officers of the navy ought to command our
blockade ships They skillful seamen, good
navigators, men of standing and character; the
cause is their cause, and they are above all the
suspicion that can be attached to Others less IA
vorably situated.
We would not thrust advice upon the depart
ments, but we venture to hope that some attention
will be paid the striking fact have laid before
the public in this rticle-Richmond DispGtch.

To MAKE PERsIMMoN BEER.-0ather the persim
mons perfectly ripe and free from any roughness.-
Work them into large loaves with bran enough to
make them consistent bake them so thoroughly
that the cake may be brown and dry throughout
but not burned They are then fit for use. But if
you keep them any time it viii be necessary to dry
them frequently in an over moderately warm. Of
these leaves broken into coarse powder take eight
bushels. Pour on them forty gallons Of cold water,
and after two three days draw it off; boil it
other beer, adding little hops. This makes very
strong beer.
The following is one of the very best receipts for
making the beer: Sweet ripe persmmons, mashed
and strained, one bushel wheat bran, one half BUSH
Ell. Mix well together, and bake in loaves of con-
venient size break them in clean barrel, and add
twelve gallons Of water and two or three. of
hops. Keep the barrel in a warm room. As soon
fermentation subsidies bottle off the beer, having
good, long corks and place the bottles ina low tenn
perature and it will keep and improve for twelve
months. THE beer, when properly made, in o warm
ROOM is an exquistely d, gAtful beverage contain
ing no alcohol and is the connoisseur of temper
ate taste not inferior to the fermented juice of the
vine. '--s
The ordinary way of making it is more simple
and the drink is relished heartily by most persons
layer of straw is put in the bottom Of the cask,
which sufficient quantity of fruit we'll mashed, is
laid, and the cask then filled with water. 1t should
stand in a warm room, and If the weather is cold,
fermentation will be promoted by occasionally put
ting warm brick OF stone in the barrel. The sd.
dtion ola few honey ocusts roasted sweet potatoes
or apple Feelings, will make the beer more brisk
Wheat bran always improves the quality.
Asyrup made with unripe persimmons, boiled in
sugar, is recommended as a. portable and useful
astringent to be used by our soldiers in camp to
prevent dysenteres and diarThRas. ID,
The ripe fruit of the persimmon May apples, figs
