yemembrances Of the New York country

Judge, was richer in peculiarities than the
Now England kitchen, if your account of The
latter is exhaustive.
In the first place the kitchen, in the chin,
ney corner Of which spent nv winter even

which the horse passed when be drew tha
back log in. Secondly, there was set Off in
the chimney, just above the jamb, in which
the witches used to rendezvous, when going
out, before their mischeivous errands. Third
there was slave bunk, for the people who
were the lawful proprietors of tho kitchen,
aud who kindly yieljed its hospitslilica 10

black ones how 10 read. That old New York
kitchen is still standing. So long as our
country WAS at peace l visited il orce a year,

REUNION IN HEAvEN.-How short is the
earthly history of a family A few short
years, and those who are now embraced in a
family circle will be scattered. The chill
dren, now the objects of tender sollcitude, will
have grown up and gone forth to their re-
spective stations in the world. A few years
more, and children and parents will have
passed from this earthly stage. Their name
will be no longer in their present dwelling.
Their domestic loves and anxieties, happiness
and sorrows, will be lost and forgotten his
tory. Every heart in which it was written
will be moulding in the dust. And is this
all? Is this the whole satisfaction which. is
provided for some stong feelings OF our
hearts How can such transitory beings,
with whom our connection is so brief, engage
all the love We can feel? Why should not
our feelings towards them be as feeble and
unsatisfying as they? But, blessed be God |!
this is not all OF this he has given US per-
feet assurance in the Gospel o! his Sor.
Though to the eye of unenlis htened nature
the ties of domestic love seem scattered into
dust, the spiritual eye of faith perceives that
they have been loosened on earth only to be
resumed under far happier circumstances in
the region Of everlasting 1--we and bliss :
Though the history of a family may seem TO
be forgotten when the last memory of it is
laid in the grave the memory of it still lives
IN mortal souls; and when the circle is
wholly dissolved on earth, it is again complet
ed in heaven

Young DAhlxren.

Col. Uric Dahlgren, whose death is now
fully ascertained, was little over twenty
two years of age, hero in history, and that
part of history which will read ike romance
His career in the army was filled with exploit,
his last browning all. In the tall of 1862 he
led daring expedition into Fredericksburg,
routing three hundred rebel cavalry with
one fourth their number. and this act Gen.
Sigel pronounced one of the most brilliant in
the war. Under Hooker his raids, and dan
gerous but always successful missions, were
many. On Lees second invasion of Mary
land he took but ten men and destroyed the
enemy's pontoons at Williamsport, and at q
later day with about one hundred, he went
round the rebel lines, captured the famous
order from Davis to Lee, destroyed 179 wag>
ons, and when surrounded by overwhelming
numbers dispersed his men, nearly all OF
whom regained the Union lines. In gallant
charge at Hagerstown, on the 9th of July, he
received the wound which cost him his leg,
and gained him the Colonelcy, which he
richly deserved Like Decatur, Dahlgren
was Pennsylvania, and young Pennsylva-
MIA owes him monument. The last infor-
nation received by the government shows
that the body of Dahlgren was most brutaIly
treated by the devils who shot him. His
ring finger was cut off, his body entirely
stripped and thrown into swamp-outrage
and ignominy the more keenly felt when we
remember the military genius unsurpassed,
almost unequaled bravery, cbivalrous spirit,
generosity, modesty and kindness of this
young and unquestionable hero.-Philadel-

W The dispatches state that Gen. But
Ter has sent to Richmond 800 rebel prisoners,
and has received in return 600 Federal priso-
ners. The Richmond Dispatch announces
that we are to surrender .f0ur Of their men,
rank for rank, for every three of ours that
they deliver to us. The Dispatch further
more asserts that they are thus to get back
thesurplus of prisoners we now hold, and
that without any stipulation or understanding
respecting our black soldiers. That is to say:
there are to deliver the white Unionists they
hold as prisoners and receive the far greater
number of their men now in hands in ex-
change for them and then they are to be at
perfect liberty to hango or shoot our blacks as
they may see fit. We wish to know if it be
true, that our authorities have really made a
bargain of this sort with the rebels.

CULTURE OF ON1oNs-A HINT TO FARMERS

CULTURE OF ON1oNs-A HINT TO FARMERS.
The extraordinary rise in tie price of on
ions, caused by the great demand in our
camps and army hospitals for this most valu-
able of all common vegetable anti scorbutics,
has doubtless Sufficiently indicated to intel
ligent farmers, that the onion crop will be
one of the most profitable which they can
cultivate this season. In order to assist them
in this most promising work, we copy the
following hint from the communication of a
farmer to Western paper:
The prevailing opinion is that to grow good
onions, the sets grown the previous year
should be planted. This is an error. Better
onions and larger crops can be grown from
seed than from sets. The seed should be first
sown in hot bed as thick as they can stand.
AS soon as the seed is up, open the beds to
the air and water freely. In April prepare
your ground and plant the sets from the hot
bed, singly, one by one, three inches asunder,
in rows ten inches apart. 1t the ground is
very good and they are well cultivated, you
may have eight hundred bushels from an
acre

HORSE THIEVES AND DEsERrEBs.-Two
citizens of New London, Henry county, whilst
at STEMS Hotel last Sunday, recognized five
men who came 10, as deserters. Not aware
Of the fact that deserters might be appre-
hended hy any person, whenever found, they
made no attempt to arrest them, but started
out in search of the Provost Marshal. Whilst
hunting him, the birds, taking the hint, de-
camped, and have not since been heard from.
Three of them were brothers, named Middle
ton, residents of New London. The other
two were Missourans, who have for some
time resided near that place. Our informant
did not know their names. About six weeks
ago one of the Missourians and one of the
Middletons were taken by Vigilance Com
mlttee at New London, and hung up by the
neck, for stealing horses. The other three
were suspected, but nothing was done with
them. They were finally released on condi-
ton that the entire party would enlist, which
they did. They were sent to Davenport and
there assigned to the 18th infantry. On their
way to the regiment, whilst in Missouri. they
deserted and made their way back. Officers
are now on their track, and it is hoped they
may be arrested.
