THE ORPHAN.

Lonely and weary, child of sorrow,
Whittier tend thy inexperienced feet:
Where wilt thou rest thee on tomorrow
In quiet home or on crowded street:
All! why so sad-sO full of weeping!
Thy garments rent and ill adjusted!
Hast thou no friendly place of sleeping
Where thy young heart may nestle trusting:
Why do'st thou gaze so long and sadly
On children gathered at their mothers knee?
Hast thou no home to enter gladly,
Where fondly caressing waits for thee
Has'e to thy home, for night is coming;
Black clouds gather on the evening sky,
Loud thunder, in the distance booming,
Warns us-the pitiless storm draws Nigh.
have no home-tO-day I wandered
Lone. torsaken-trom that friendly door,
From which the cruel landlord plundered
70 the last of all its scantv store.
Ny strong father laid him down and died
When could but club upon his knee:
And late, my mothe-. IN words so mild,
Dying, whispered, d will care for thee. >
Now I'll sleep while t:-e black clouds lower,
And dream the rain drops are tears for me,
Winds shall kiss me as they do the flowers
And the thunder sing m lullaby.

wrong to hold the government responsible,

gentleman from Minnesota has made a
personal explanation against some remarks
of Governor Andrew. The Senator should
know that we are criticised at home on
telegraphic dispatches purporting to give
what we say or do here. People know
but little of what we do here save by tele-
graphic dispatches, the Globe having to

must endure Mr.. Wilson considered the
reports of the associated press, considering
their length, as good as could be made.
We should be careful and not censure the
President, nor the Secretary of War, nor
Gen. Halleck, for the faults and misfor-
tunes OF others. When victories are won
they are claimed by the officers winning
them. They are both to share it with the
war authorities.

NEWSPAPER PATRONAGE.-This thing called
newspaper patronage is curious thing. 1t is
composed of as many coorS as the rainbow, and
changeable the chameleon
One man subscribes for newspaper and paws
for it in advance he goes home and reads it
with the proud satisfaction that it is his own
He hands in an advertisement, asks the price
and pays for it. This is real newspaper patron
age.
Another man says, Please put my name in
your list of subscribers y and he goes off with
out as much as having said ''pay'' once. Time
passes, your patience is exhausted, and you dun
him. He flies into passion, and perhaps pays,
perhaps not
Another man has been subscriber long
time. He becomes tired of you and wants a
change; thinks he wants city paper; tells the
postmaster to discontinue, and one of his papers
is returned marked g refused. Paving up for
it is among the last of his thoughts besides,
he wants his money to send to the city publisher
After time you look over his account and send
bill of u balance due" But does he pay it
cheerfully? We leave him to answer.
Another man lives near you. Never took your
paper-it is too small-don't like the editor or
something else; yet goes regularly to read his
neighbours by good fire-fnds fault with its
contents, disputes its positions, and quarres
with its type. Occasionally he sees an article
that he likes, gives dime and begs number
Another sports a fine horse, or perhaps pair
OF them Is always seen with whip in hand and
spurs on foot-single man-no use for him to
take a newspaper-knows enough. He finally
concludes to get married-does so-sends no.
tice of the fact, with 'tplease send me a half
dozen copies" This done, does he ever pay for
notice or paper? Nary time ~
Another man (bless you, it does us good to see
such men J comes and says, I" The year for
which paid is about to expire-I want to pay
for another" He does so and retires.
Reader, isn't newspaper patronage very
queer thing? And in that great day when honest
men get the reward due to their honesty, which,
say you, of those enumerated above, will obtain
that reward. Now it will be seen that while
certain kinds of patronage are the very life and
existence of a newspaper, there are certain other
kinds that will kill newspaper stone-dead.-
Do you see the point?

Ode for the Times.

following beautiful and patriotic lines write
Hon. Daniel s. Dickinson, of New York. in answer to
lestion by lady, "whether he for peace:l
Gam for peacel Yesl
For the peace which rings from the lannon's throa
And the suasion of shot and shell,
TIL the rebellion's spirit is tramped down
To the depths Of it's kindred hell.
For the peace which shall follow the squarons tram
Where the brazen uumpets bray.
And, drunk with the fury Of storm and strife,
The blOod-red chargers neigh
For the peace which shall wash the eprous stain
OF our slavery, foul and grim,
And shall sunder the letters which creak and clank
On the down trodden dark mans limb.
will curse him a traitor and false Of heart
Who would shrink from the conflict now,
And will stamp it with blistering, burning brand
On his hideous Cain-like brow.
Out out Of the way with your spurious peace,
Which would make us rebellions slaves;
We will land from their traitorous grasp
Or cover 1t over with graves.
Out out Of the way with your knavsh schemes,
You trembling and trading pack
Crouch away in the dark, like a sneaking hound
That its master has driven back.
You would barter the fruit of our fathers blood
And sell out the Stripes and Stars,
To purchase place with rebellion's votes,
Or escape from rebellion's
By the widows wall, by the mothers tears,
By the orphans who cry for bread,
By our sons who fell, will yield,
Till the rebellions soul is dead"'
