Hospital Scenes.

Mr.. DAWSON, writing to the Albany Eresing
Journal giving an account of the daily routine
of hospital life concludes as follows:
Then come the night watchers and silence.
For hours together, sometimes. there is the
stiffness of death when you can hear the tread
of a mouse; and vet, amid the stiffness there
is vast deal of pain, quietly and uncomplain-
ingly borne by the noble fellows who have suf-
fered and suffered SO heroically in battle. God
bless them for their herOsm on their weary
couches. A grateful country will remember
and reward them. thro9ghout the night at
fixed hours, there is the distribution of medi.
cines and stimulants. the wetiing of the ban
dages and auch other attentions as are required
for the comfort of the patterns. And SO wears
away the long weary hours of the night.
Although there is SO much suffering, and so
little to make one merry, in these depots of
MANNED men. there is nevertheless sOmetim'
something amusing happening 1t is in an era,
for instance when some of the One-legged fel-
lows can take TO crutches When this occurs.
spontaneous congratulations from the recum-
bent crowd follow HIM wherever he makes his
appearance; with an occasional "gO it, We
cripples!" 'double quick !" ''don't kick mel"
&C., &C., causing universal hilarity, aud bring
ing smile to the lips of the worst cases. The
happy cOnvalescent takes I'll this in good part,
and sometimes replies, 1T will be- your urn,
next, my boy,"'' be patient, chap; when you
get your cork leg on, it will be all right )"
this is jolly, but slow" legs are better than
three-and-a-half on a retreat" &c, &C., for
getting his loss in the JOY OF the moment.
Any then when one is well enough to ask for
a furlOugh to go home! IL is the theme OF
conversation throughout the word; and the
happy fellow hobbies from one cot 10 another
to communicate the good news. There are
great many sources of happiness in this world,
after all. G.. d.

It appears from the following, which we
copy from the Red Wing Voluntser of the Goth
instant, that our strategic friend of the Press
has been doing some itinerary work for the
WAsHBURNE family, and that, too, on Sunday.
This is shameful, besides being prejadicial to
his health. The Volunteer says:
"WHEN SHALL WE THREE MEET AGAIN -
a meeting Of specia interest took place in this
city ON the 18th Instant, between the Postmas-
ter of st. Paul. Che editor Of the Thunderer.
and Judge Ottnan of Wabashaw county. We
OF course, was not let into the secret of the
meeting, bat naturally concluded Il had refer.
ence to what laid nearest their hearts. viz. the
election OF the last member of the famous
Washburne family TO Congress.
We had always entertained the old fooie
idea that the pie had something to do about
such matters. but we are learning somthing
every day. OF course the people of WabashaW
county are willing to submit TO what one
man may do in their name and ask no cues.
iOns
We had always thought that when a politi-
cal Object was ,ught to be attained, it was
VIC were mistaken; the modern way is for q
postmaster and an editor to write to a lawyer
10 meet them at hotel at some town half way
anu tue lnree Will there do what political trad
Ing may oe necessary to secure the freest ex.
preston 20 of the peoples will. -
In another article, speaking of the Conven-
ton, the Volunteer remarks:
The only item of special interest at this Con.
ventinn is the nomination of Congressman
The Thunderer had decided in the secret conn
ellis of its sanctum, that MIR. Donnelly must be
defeated because in some way he does not
minister to the financial necessities of the
