What IN economist IL Nature, 30 made
by Godl She economies even the light
she so immensely possesses; catches it on
the moon rs candle, after the sun has
gone down, as ne say, when be il but
rising on other lands; and sends it in
conceivably far to us from the stars. She
economies heat, equalizing it for the life
and health Of the whole world, by cur
rents in the air and ocean and of the cleo
trio fluid. She economies water, to an
swer thousand successive important
purposes, in thousand different places,
with the same drop. How nicely and
carefully she sits out its minutest por-
tioDs from the briny sea, to cleanse the
air and revive the plants at this season, to
fill the springs, and paint the sky, and
support all human life! H-w, with her
mighty elemental agencies, she crumblcs
and bears down the barren rock from the
mountains and hills, to fertilize, for
boundless and endless crops, the valley
and the plain? Now she makes the ashes
even Of the dead spring into grass, and
blossom into flowers! Now, applying the
same economy to crude mineral, from the
very gravel in the ground she distills a
curious, delicate wash to protect the ten
der stalks OF the growing grain, though
you may not think what perhaps cuts your
hand to bleeding is this varnish of flint
How she saves every hair, particle, nail,
pairing, and exhalation, to turn it to some
account How she converts ice, and the
snow that manures the poor man g ground
into harvests of corn and wheat! How
she nourishes her vegetable offspring, Sc
that her animal may not die of hunger
The roots of shrub, thirsty for suppl,
that had been drawn aside by an arti6cia
channel, have been known, in their reso
luton not to be defrauded, to find lhei
way to the aqueduct under ground, ant
bore hole through its soft wooden plug
that every fiber might drink its fill, as wa
divinely intended. To one who look
with careless view on Nature, it seem
as if everything with her we're in extrava
CANT excess. We quote the line abou
''many flower born to blush unseen,
| and we talk of the floods that are pouret
away to no purpose. But a closer in
speotion cerrects this error, and show
how frugal her utility, and perfect he
order; enough, but mo room to insert
PARTICLE" however Art may rearrang,
her forms to educate and give scope t
human power Rev. G. A. Bartol.

returned to Memphis last night, and

again.
We have had a terrible time-have been
cut all to pieces. Out of FIVE regiments
of infantry and one battery, but about
$50 have been saved, all the rest being
killed, wounded or taken prisoners. Col.
Humphreys, of the 95th Illinois, and Col.
McKeag, of the l2Oth Illinois, were kill
ed. l saw Colonel Humphreys when he
was shot, and afterwards saw his body at
Ripley. Colonel McKeag was shot dur
ing our retreat. 1t is impossible to tell
who are killed and wounded now, and
will be for some time to come. The
18th regiment left here with about 300
men, the balance being on duty at this
place as a guard to Irving Black-only IS
have returned. The only officer that ]
know of in that regiment that was killed
was Lieutenant Conway-he was shol
