Music I'm the Family.

against oyerdoses of bad music; two
young ladies in adjoining rooms play
iug different tunestlt once; nine of the
Misses Smiths taking it by turns to
practice oiia cracked, melodeon, while
their brother plays the flute, and the in

we siibw and then think that even too
much poor music is better than none.at

different members Of a family sing and
play, there is always ample opportunity
to drive away sulks or III humor; and
where the performers are skilIfut the

The Blockade OF Wilmington.

The Richmond Dispatch of the 18th
says:
From gentleman Just from VIII
mington we learn that the blockade of
that port is as effective as Yankee in
genuity and an unlimited, force Of gum
boats can make it. They have now es-
tablishcd two lines of picket boats in
the offing to give the alarm of the at
tempted egress of blockade-runners,
and as soon 9s the latter make their APP
pearance, the boats. throw up rockets
and burn blue lights. The Yankee ar
rangcments for blockading the port are
good, aud will hold so perhaps a month
longer, when they will all be swept
away by the rude blasts of winter. The
North Carolina coast is, in winter, the
most dangerous in the world and when
winter sets in the blockaders must stand
off to sea, or they will inevitably be
blown ashore and wrecked. 'r1a..iIt

JO. Hooker in tears.

In the great Uuion procession at
Springfield, Ill, last week, were ninety.
three two-horse wagons loaded with
wood. II was dumped in pile for dis
tribution to soldiers families. General
10. Hooker, while riding up from the
depot, met the procession, and was
rather stunned by the 90 wood wagons.
."why, where can these farmers find a
market for this immense quantity OF
fuel?" asked the hero. "Oh General, it
is part of our procession. Every stick
of that is going to the families of sol,
diers absent i'll the army" The tears
gathered in Hooker's eyes--treInbled a
moment, then ran down the check
bronzed in hundred battles, while he
said, "My God! what people you Hi
noisans are! You not only furnish men
withou- stint to fight the battles Of the
nation, but you take fathers care OF
their wives and children while they are
absent" ,ai.

failure?" Copperheads, do you still stick
to this lie and this SANDER?

The VieYs OF an Ancient Tobacco
.raa 4,eE9 PIanter.o as rsfr fasi,

The editbr of the ssE'asy, Char,', de-
partment of lIarpers'6 Magazine has
been travelling, and gives this among
his experiences: -
w aiting at one Of the stations in the
Connecticut valley, the Easy LAoit con-
triyed to get over fence and accost an
old man who was, swapping otfthe stalks
of the tobacco plant. .Complacent pa
triarch ofthe poisonoiis plant, he spoke
with the confidence of knowledge bnl
"Forty or fifty good loads to the
acre." said he: ",a little well l-rotted
manure or phosphate in the hill and
be sure to rotate" '.i ''i'i''a''
The Easy Chair suggested that it
had heard the crop might be pushed
continuously upon a well-fed soil, like
onions.
"I have tried it both ways" quoth
the patriarch, calmly shipping off heads.
'sSow it well |; choose the best plants !;
set 'emp out carefully; these here, were
planted out about the 10th of June, and
will be ready for cutting about the 10th
of August. l am breaking the heads
to let, the leaves spread" In the w est
Indies all but four leaves are sometimes
stripped off, when the cultivator is
more bent upon quality than quantity.
""Ahd how much will you get to the
acre p HHoy Do mu.-7m ad1 dauo7ai OF
"Wa'al a ton is a great crop. Four
teen or fifteen or sixteen hundred
pounds"
"The price is good now," insinuated
the Easy ChGir, lm1i9N ih o'i1oT1f ~
A benignant smile slowly overspread
the countenance, of the patriarch, who
continued to snip and beam, calculating
that "tobbaker is about as pooty crop
as n man can raise" 'G'h Hf2 or
"Do yon smoke?" blandly inquired
the CAqir. oi.o.f, r-..;. ..,f .Errf e.,
"No," replied the patriarch, SOLDERING,
and with the air Of a deacon who had
been accused profanity. @H'
Asthe Easy Chair stumbled back
again over the fence, it, turned and
watched the patriarch, who somehow
seemed to it to be Poor Richard him
self. For although 1t IL solemnly con
sciouss of the superintendent truth
that che pooty crop inlures to some ex-
tent all who use it, yet Richard loves a
penny, and proportionably two.
Ifyou see Buildings in the Connecti-
cut Valley which are strange to you,
you may be quite sure that they are
sweet houses for the tobacco Itis a
tradition that the crop impoverishes the
SOIL But such a tradition would hard
ly have arisen in region where the
soil WAS literally fed and renewed. In
the West Indies and our Southern
States, tobacco is thought to be the
cause of SO many desolate and abandon
ed fields. But the slave system ofag
riculture is always and everywhere the
most expensive and exhaustive, what.
ever the crops may be- Harpers' Mag.

The police made a. raid early this
morning upon the Donelson House, on

In conclusion, we would assure our
citizens that there is no cause for undue
excitement or apprehension. Colonel
Sweet has abundant means at hand for
the protection of Camp Douglas, and
the police, aided by citizens, who will
ofcourse adopt precautionary measures,
will protect the city from robbers, in

The Test Gath.

Tie Chicago Platform, and all the
Mcclellan orators, declare that, it the
election should turn upon the border
States, and the election there were con-
trolled by test oaths, and the polls
guarded by soldiers to prevent rebels,
Suerrillas and bushwhackers from
voting, in that case the Democracy OF
the North would rise IN arms, and over
throw the Government. Now, that
everybody, may see his terrible test
oath, which Democrats are SO much af-
raid of, and which the McClellanites as
sert prevents their friends in the border
States from voting, we subjoin the oath
required to be taken in Maryland,
which reads as follows:
81 do swear [or affirm that ! am a
citizen of the United States; that have
never given any aid, countenance or
support to those in.hostility to the United
States; that have never expressed a
desire for the triumph of said enemies
over the arms of the United States and
that will bear true faith and allegiance
to the United States, and support the
Constitution and laws thereof as the SUI
prcme law of the land, any law or ordi-
nance of any State to the contrary not
withstamding; that will in all respects
demean myself as loyal citizen of the
United States; and / make this oath or
affirmation without any reservation or
evasion, and believe it to be binding on
me. ~. ..tr L-cri.I -o.
Remember that the Nc Clellanites here
say that the men who want to vote Tor
LttleMac in'Maryland cannot take this
oath-dare not swear they are not reb-
els, and will not swear that they are In
favor of maintaining the Union.
