SIT Is said that some of people in this war have
cringed beneath disaster aud compromised with msfor
tune These excepdons they may be IorroWul onee
But in this the people Of the Confederacy, in the
mass, have shown fortitude, elasticity under
verses, temperance in victory, selfnegation In
misfortune, heroic, hopeful patient enduring, working
resolution which challenge the admiration Of the world
Il il not only material evils which bave been thus
endured the scourse OF tyranny, the bitterness Of
lie the dregs of poverty. But the mos. beautiful
circumstance of all is the strange resignation Of our
people in that worst tiAl aud woistSgony Of war-the
consignment Of the living objects Of their love to the
bloody affairs of sacfce. These the real horrors
of war aud patriotism has no higher tribute pay than
the brave AID accomplishing endurancs OF such sgony
We do not ike Me-. Pollards nomenclature and We
do not agree with him that this continent is to be d.

begins to bete the States and to talk Of tbs Agency
as halowed and sanctifed thing.
Doubtless the North aud South are two distinct peo-
pies. Doubtless the Coafederacy will last a while and
serve its purpose just the old Onion did But If
win our independence hs North will be split into many
fragments. Ii NOT We shall have military despOtisms
each side of the Potomac and Ohio; and that IL a
thing not pleasant to contemplate. A glance ut the
map of the late United Staes aud attentive study Of
the physical features of tho continent taken In

BY CHARLES SWAIN.

How is it, DER the strongest mind,
That trifes hold such sway1
A word, nay cen a look unkind
May darken all life's day.
Oh, in this world of daily care,
The thousands that have erred
Can any hardship better bear
Than they can bear a a0Ord
The man who with heroic heart
Can stern misfortune meet,
Unfinchingly perform his part,
And struggle 'gainst defeat
With faith unaltered-yet can lose
His temper, cen for aught
Which falls not as his will would choose,
Or proves not what he sought
And woman can forgive wrong
Which casts her on the world,
Far better than forgive the tongue
That may some sneer have hurled;
Athousand times prefer lot
As hard as want deplores,
Than feel or think herself forgot
By one her heart adores
Alas the human mould's at fault;
And still by turns it claims
A nobleness that can exalt,
A littleness that shames
Of fstrength and weakness still combined,
Compounded of the mean and grand
And trihes thus will shake the mind
That would a tempest stand.
Give me that soul-superior power,
That conquest over fate,
Which sways the weakness of the hour,
Rules little things as great;
That lulls the human waves of strife
With words and feelings kind,
And makes the trials of our life
The triumphs of our mind
