was generally understood that she had a re-
lapse, The day passed on, and Mr.. Butter
worth arrived he manifested great concern
at hearing of my aunt's illness, and plainly
showed that he had missed the real object Of
his visit. He was dull and silent, and when
my mother left the gentlemen sitting over
their wine, scarcely word was exchanged
between them, and my father was just nod
ding off to sleep when he was aroused by a
loud ring at the gate, followed by the en-
trance OF the servant, who stated that a
rough looking man wanted to speak to Miss
Letitia, and would take no denial. MY father
Immediately went out into the hall, closely
followed by Mr.. Butterworth, and they found
a tail fellow who introduced himself as a
member of the county constabnlary, and who
reiterated his wish to speak with apparently
reading from omething in his hand) "Miss
l.. Pemberton."
"You can't see her." said my father "she's
i'll, and in her room. Pm her brother; what
do you wants"
"Well, sir" said the man, ponderously,
I" there have bin a robbery, and we want the
lady to swear to some of the swag."
"Some of the swag?" said Mr. Bitterworth.
Some of the swag?" repeated my father.
"What does the man mean ?"

'mongst the things broke open was this adj

fancy" And as the wretch spoke he drew
from packet top row of dazzling false
teeth I"
Yes, that was the secret of Aunt Letitia's
illness. A year or two before, when nature
failed her, she called in the assistance of art,
and availed herself of the services of Mr..
Twinch, but an accident occurring on the fatal
boiled beef day, the teeth were sent back to
their creator, who had the strictest injunc-
tions to return them, renovated, by the first
of January. Mr.. Twinch obeyed these orders
implicitly; and, had not Mr. Pond and his
friend selected that very night for the rob-
berry of the mail, all would have beer well.
As it was, the teeth were detained by the
lawyers for the prosecution until after the
trial, at which they were produced, and at
which my aunt also was compelled to appear
though strongly against her will. But when
once on her mettle, she behaved with great
spirit, and gave her evidence with such clear
ness (albeit with pretty lisp that she was
complimented by the judge, and was the
main cause of Mr.. Pond and his friend being
found guilty, and sentenced to fifteen years
transportation.
1t has never been known to this day
whether Mr.. Butterworth was in court. AT
all events, three days after he called at the
Grove, and found that he had business which
would oblige him to take lodgings in the
neighborhood for month. At the end OF
that time l was measured for new suit Of
clothes, and wore them one morning when
they seemed to have dinner-champaigne
cold fowls and things-at twelve o'clock and
when Mr.. ButterwOrtn had ON blue coat
and when aunt Letitia laughed great deal
and cried all over my new jacket, as she babe
us goodbye, and told us she was then Mrs
Butterworth.

little forage that they have had to subsist

Hark a bugle's echo comes,
Hark a ffeis singing,
Hank the roll of far OF drums,
Through the air rs ringingi
Nearer the bugle's echo comes,
Nearer the ife is singing,
Near aud more near the roll Of drums
Through the air is ringing.
War it is thy music proud,
Weakening the braye-hearted,
Memories-hopes-a glorious crowd,
At its call have started
Memories OF our sires of old,
Who, oppresson-driVen,
High their rainbow flag unrolled
To the sun and sky of heaven. .-z
Memories OF the true and brave,
Who, at Honor's bid ding,
Stepped their country s life to save,
To war as to their wedding.
Memories of many a battle-plain,
Where, their blood flowing,
Made green the grass, and gold the grain,
Above their graye-mounds growing.
Hopes-that the children of their prayers,
With them in valOr vieing,
May do a noble deeds as theirs,
In living and in dying.
And make, for children yet to come,
The land of their beguesthing,
The imperial and the peerless home
OF happiest beings breathing.
For this the warrior path We tread,
The battle-path OF duty,
Ana change, tor field and forest bed
Our bowers Of love and beauty.
Music. bid thy mins;rels play
No tunes of grief or sorrow,
Let them cheer the living brave to-day,
They may vail the dead tomorrow.
The heart hath sorrows of its own,
And griefs Il wells from all,
And tears, close-hdden from the world,
In solitude will fall,
And when its thoughts of agony
Upon the bosom lie,
Even Beauty in her LONELINESS
May pass unheeded by.
Ills only on the happy
That she never looks in vain,
To them her smiles are rainbow hopes,
Newborn of summer rain,
And their glad hearts will worship her,
As one whose home is heaven;
A being of a brighter world,
To earth 4 season given.
That time with me has been and gone,
And life's best music now
Il but the winters wind that bends
The leafiess forest bOugh.
And would shun, if that could be,
The light OF young blue eyes,
They bring back hours l would forget,
And painful memories.
Yet, lady, though too few and brief,
There are bright moments still,
When can free my pTisOned thoughts,
Aud wing them where / will
And then thy smiles come DER my hearth
Like sunbeams DER the sea,
And can bow as once L bowed
When all was we'll with me.

No MAN in the nation has done more to nur-
ture the arrogance and folly which resulted
in the secession movement, than Mr.. j. f. w.
DEBow, Of census and review notoriety. He
was a most devoted courtier to King Cotton,
and the unblushing defender of human sla-
very, skillfully manipulating statistics to prove
that it was a source of greatness and wealth.
But even he has been compelled, by the logic
of events, to desert the cause of King Cotton.
In late number of his Review, he announc-
ed his belief in the fallacy of the cotton the
DRY on which the South rebelled, and said
that slave labor, however it might have been,
is not now profitable. In return for this,
JEFF. Davis has imprisoned Mr.. DeBow, and

Mr.. Lincoln has tall. spare, large

Mr.. Lincoln has not a poctical or SEN

Taken separately, his features are BY
no means classical, but, in combination,
they assume very decided and strongly
marked expression of character. Nor is
this the repulsive face his prejudiced op.
ponents or enemies would make it out to
be. On the contrary, it will pass, in all

their own bosoms to the storm, and rally
