w-VALRNrrNR's DAY.-To.morrow il

RS@VALRNTTNE's DAY.-To.morrow is
st. Valentines day, alluded to by shaks.
peare as an old notion that on the 18th of
February birds began to couple; but the
occasion was originally in the interest of
the little blind god whose feats in darling
the burning fame to aching voids"
have SO much to do with mortals here be-
low. but, who, in later days, no doubt finds
it more an occasion for vexatioa than
pleasure, as 1t now licenses all sorts of jes.
ting in his godship's special sphere, while
formerly it was regarded as day upon
which all persons considered themselves at
liberty to send to their "muchly loved" the
quiuteseuce of their hearts yearnings.-
But the custom has degenerated with the
times, to such degree that instead of the
"smitten SWANS" having the exclusive
rights of the city, to send to their "joys"
and "hopes" genuine old-fashioned valen.
tines, the occasion is taken advantage of
TO send to persons the ugliest pictures and
most ridiculous doggerel that can be found
Some of the missives are handsome. and
may be appropriate enough, but the grea-
ter portion of them are innocent daubs,
and only show how the observance of the
day has been abused.
The practice of observing this day by a
particular custom, arose very early, but
there is some doubt as to its origin, as it
Is variousIy derived. 1t is said by some
that the custom of choosing a val
entine arose in imitation of the reputed
habit of birds 10 mating on this day; but it
ia more probable that it was derived from
the practice in ancient Rome, at the festi-
val known as Luferealia, (Which was cele.
brated at about this season) which was to
place the Dames of young women in a box
from which the young men drew, thus
risking their fate to chance. At a more
modern time, it was the custom for persons
of both sexes to draw their valentines, who
were for the time being, their especial ia
vorites. This custom was much practised
in England and Continental Europe, but it
was changed Oy the efforts of the pastors
Of the early churches, who succeeded in
bringing about reform by innovations upon
customs with which were associated 80
many expectations. The name itself was
derived from St. Valentine, whose special
virtues were love and charity, and who was
beheaded at Rome, A. D., 27O, shortly af-
ter he was canonized Saint.

swaFtE, refugee from the valley OF Yir-
ginia, called upon us last Saturday, and
advertised, as will be seen elsewhere, for
information in regard to his wife and two
children. Mr.. SWartz resided in Shenan-
doah county. Having resolved to leave
his home rather than go into the rebel SER
vice, he despatched his wife and children,
one morning in December last, in the direo~
ton of Our lines, intending 70 leave himself
under cover of the darkness Of the same
night. But the rebels, suhpeoting his de.
sign, set watch upon him and he was
compelled to take to the woods, where he
remained concealed until the 9Th of Jan.
uary. In the meantime, his wife and chill
dreu came on in company with other fam
lilies. Mr.. Swartz, who has been on the
hunt of his family. ever since his arrival
within our lines, finally succeeded in ira
cling them to Parkersburg, but there he
lost the trail. Any information commu-
nicated in accordance with the advertise
meut, will be gratefully reoeiIed by an
anxious husband andftsther.

enlist were compelled to pay the money
which they received NON their principals

the case. Heretofore a, great many subSti-
tutes after having received their money
have given the Provost Marshal the slip
and departed for parts unknown. 1t has
now been determined, and it is thought
wisely, to give the substitute the alternative
of depositing his money or being locked up
in the Atheneum until such time as the
Provost Marshal may see proper to send
him to the field.

fourth was despatched by Mr.. Taught,
advocate Of the court, to Washington, and
endeavored, without success, to obtain

In reply to letter, Mr.. Seward wrote

country without entering the scene of in-
surrection or communicating with the in
surgents. He saw the President and the
