THE SOLDIERS LETTER.
BY l.. HATTIE g. ALpRIcH.

IL 81
Days, and weeks, and months have heightened,
wrought Of moments like to years,
Filled with deeds renowned in story, filed with strife,
and hopes, and fears,
since parted from ysu, darling, with q heart too
sad for tears.
All the air the moonlight flooded touched the distant
hills with gold,
Bids we're singing, and the woodlands flung out
banners manifold,
And the with solemn murmurs rocked the star
light white, and cold.
Vaguely thought Of our bridal, Of the years that
lay between,
or the home that love made royal Of the homo where
thou vast queen,
OF the sunshine, and the blessing, that thy life to
me had been.
For above my hearts quick leading, rang the
date of the land.
Thrilling with its mighty music every loyal heart
and hand,
Freemen surging back responses, thzobbins, eager,
fall, and grand.
And saw this holy fervor hudle in thy glowing
cheek,
grows strangely weak
huu tuy sao eyos iookeu tne pesuS tuos tny uusueV
voice failed to speak.
To these CORY Southern borders loyal soldiers came
sweet wife,
In the Aercest Of battles fearless fought amid
the strife,
And full oft a great-souled comrade yielded up a
martyrs life.
Mid the thunder of the cannon, and the lightning
fash of steel,
Darling, have fought beside them, with q spirit
firm, and lesl,
And it nerved me in the struggle thy fond yearning
for my veal.
By my camp fire. weak, and wounded, from the battle
cloud, and dust,
With no hand to soothe my anguish, i'll felt not all
thy trust,
Knowing thou vert praying for me, believed that
God was just.
Tempted, tried and sometime, doubling, when my
feet would turn aside
From the paths Of virtue to the beaten paths
and wide,
guard and guide.
Sometime IN the joyous future,-"when this cruel
war is o'er,''
If death spare me, thy dear presence then shall glad
me as before,
But if not Gods kindes angels guard and bless thee
evermore.

SUNTER.-A letter from Morris Island has

SUNTER.-A letter from Morris Island has
the following:
"On the 2sth, deserter came into our
lines, bringing the intelligence that the
enemy has, in Sumter, fourteen mortars,
facing our batteries, and faur neavy guns
beering upon the channel. He states. too,
that Sumter internally is undergoing many
changes, and that as a means Of defense it
is stronger than ever. Our authorities
placed so much confidence in his state
ments that at IL NJ, the 2Sth ult., terri
ble fire was opened upon the apparently
mass Of ruins. Though l witnessed the
siege of Wagner and Sumter last summer
and autumn, more terrific firing than that
Of yesterday never saw. A fierce gale
came up from the north short time after,
and the fire somewhat slackened, but il
continues to-day. The enemy does not re-
ply. The front has become interesting
again."

EXCITING SCENE.-The saloon Of river
steam boat attacked by guerrillas presents
scene quite as comic as it is exciting. To
those who can at all control their nerves,
the ludicrous positively banishes all
thoughts Of the tragic; to see great big
fellows, with and without shoulder-straps,
sprawl flat on their bellies, behind every
conceivable projection Of chair or table, ut
the first rattle of musketry. and going
through the absurdly impossible process Of
trying to make pancakes of themselves
Near to my cabin door, where was sitting
reading when the alarm commenced, saw
behind the leaves of table, piled up about
two feet high, United States officer-not
neOf the l33d-lying fiat on his face; on
top of him negro, waiter, and on top Of
the latter gaunt, petritied, long bearded
sutler, whose eyes seemed ready to leap
from their sockets. Poor fellow know

when We ly reached this place at IL

AssAuLr-TnE WEAPON NOT PROPERLY
DESCRIBED IN CoMPLAINT.-On Friday, the
lst inst, Frank Golden went out collecting.
and evidently impressed with the idea that
great necessities required strong measures
for relief he took his knife along with him to
enforce his demands. His debtor being call
ed on. excused himself by saying he had been
sick for some time, and had not the kali. .
Frank, though a caballero of the pure Cas-
tilian stamp, used very abusive language
habit acquired by long association with
American pure bloods; he also protected
himself by drawing and holding in readiness
his knife while he regaled his hearer with
bllfngsgate eloquence. Frank was arrested
for an assault with a deadly weapon, but 1t
appearing to Justice Danielson that the as
sault was with filthy weapon instead, and
the deadly one only held in reserve, the bel
ligerent was discharged and the county saved
some expense.

SERIOUS AccIpENT-Dud. Shuffieton. a
resident of our town, late in the afternoon of
the 4th, while under the influence of distilled
patriotism, took his pistol-a six. shooter
and announced to his wife that he intended
to kill himself. His wife demonstrated with
him, objecting to such q summary mode of
shutting off this mortal coil. Dudley listen
ed, was convinced, and thereupon threw his
pistol on the floor. The concussion exploding
the percussion on one of the barrels, propell-
ed a eonical ball into Dud's right thigh, and
up along the inside of the heavy muscles
through into the left hip, where the ball is
now supposed to remain. His attending
physicians consider his situation as critical.
