DRIVING HOME THE COWS.

Out of the clover and blue eyed grass, ig
He turned them into the riyer-lane;
One after another he let them pass,
Then fastened the meadow bars again.
Under the willow and over the hill, ssa.4.p
He patiently followed their sober pace:
The merry whistle for once was still,
And something Swallowed the sunny face. q
Only boy and his father had said
lie never could let his youngest go;
Two already were lying dead, t iH
Under the feet of the trampling foe.
But after the evening work was DONE
And the frogs were loud in the meadow swamp,
Overhis shoulder he slung his gun, ls ttyi
Aid steathily followed the foot-path damp.
Across the clover and through the wheat,
With resolute heart and purpose grim, =
Though cold was the dew on his hurying feet
i And the blind bats flying startled him. -
Thrice since then had the lanes been white
And the orchards sweet with apple bloom,
And now, when the COWS came back at night, ele
The feeble father drove them home 5ivqi7tI.f
For news had come to the lonely farm, tt
That three were lying where two had lain
And the old mans tremulous, palsed arm
Could never lean on son $ again.
The summer days grew cold and late, t.pItf
lie went for the cows when the work was done ~
But down the lane as he opened the gate
He saw them coming one by one.
Brindle, Ebony, Speckle and Bess, ~.
Shaking their horns in the evening wind;
Cropping the butter-cups out of the grass
But who was it following close behind i. -.
Loosely swung in the open air
The empty sleeve of army blue,
And worn and pale, from the crisping hair,
Looked out a face that the father new.
For Southern prisons will sometimes yawn, m F9
And yield their dead into life again;
And the day that comes with cloudy dawn
In golden glory at last may wane
The great tears sprang to their meeting eyes; -
For the heart must speak when the lips are dumb,
And under the silent evening skies =.
Together they followed the cattle home. ~ r7.

Is not that good system that increases
our profits, while it elevates the other race
in the scale of being? And is it not bless
ed system that makes US all do more work,
and get along with less help--that converts
drones, white and black, into active and in
dustrious workers.
On the Eastern Shore of Virginia. am
told the change of system works most ad-
mirably. But that may be the result of
most excellent system adopted bv Colonel
White, the military commandant ON tho
Shore, who has applied fine powers to the
practical consideration of the subject. The
prominent feateres of his plan are, that Il
is founded in strict regard to the relative
rights and obligations of the former mas
ters and the liberated blacks, and that it
gives constant employment to the freedmen
at proper rates of compensation. The sys-
tenn prevailing there gives quiet, tranquility
and prosperity to the community and to
both races
When experience shall have developed
a perfect system for the management of
freedmen's affairs, few will be found to re-
monstrate against or regret emancipation.
Fortunately, Congress has, in this matter
taken step in the right direction. 1t has
transferred the whole subject from the
Treasury Department, where it never be-
longed, to the War Department, where it
should be, and must be until the war is end
ed, because there only is to be found the
energetic sanction required for the admins
tion of this delicate and difficult depart
ment.
Let it pass to the sagacious and vigorous
statesnlauship of Secretary Stanton, and
emancipation much dreaded as it has been,
will leave no horror behind to tell weep
ing tale. sp 4a a8ls @
On the whole, after observing much, l
have come to the conclusion which five
years ago would have shrunk from-that
speedy emancipation is the best possible
policy for the South ITSELF And this po-
sition | may attempt to maintain in another
communication i9ods1 s'itaa yah &. S.

cannot think of it. She knows now he don't
love her, or he never would think of shut
ting her up in an old mouldy hole picked
out OF rotten wood; and he knows she does
not love him, or she never would want to
make him uncomfortable all his DAYS by
fitting and swinging him about as no decent
bird ought to be swung. Both are dead-set
in their own way and opinion; and how is
either to be convinced that the way which
seemeth right unto the other is not best +?
Nature knows this, and therefore, in her
feathered tribes, blue,jays do not mate with
orioles and Sc bird-houseksepng goes on
in peace.
But men and women as diverse in their
physical tastes and habits as blue-jays and
orioles are wooing and wedding every day,
and ceming to the business of nest-building
alias housekeeping, with predictions as
violent, and as incapable of any logical de-
fence, as the orioles partiality for swing
nest and the jays preference for rotten
wood. 1 a1alai
Our Hero and Leander, then, who are ar.
ranging their cottage to-day, are examples
just to point. They have both of them been
only children,-both the idols of circles
where they have been universally deferred
to. Each in his or her own circle has been
looked up to as model of good taste, and
Of course each has the habit Of exercising
and indulging very distinct personal tastes.
They truly, deeply, esteem, respect, and
love each other, and for the very best OF
reesons,-because there are sympathies OF
the very highest kind between them. Both
are generous and affectionate,- both are
highly cultured in intellect and taste
both are earnestly religious and yet with
all this, let me tell you that the first year
of their married life will be worthy to be
recorded as gear of battles. Yes, these
friends so true, these lovers so ardent, these
individuals in themselves so admirable, can
not come into the intimate relation of life
without an effervescence as great as that OF
an acid and alkali; and it will be impossi-
BILE to decide which is most in fault, the acid
or the alkali; both being in their way OF
the very best quality.
The reason of it all is, that both are in
tensely set an their aoay," and the ways OF
no two human beings are altogether coin
cident. Both of them have the most sharp
ly defined exact tastes and preferences. In
the simplest matter have pay,-an exact
way,--which seems to be dear to them as
life's blood. In the simplest appetite or
taste they know exactly what they want,
and cannot, by any argument, pursuasion,
.Cr coaxing, be made to want anything else.

Farmers of the Northwest, Make a
Home Market .
At the late National Convention OF
Boards of Trade in Detroit, an important
meeting of leading merchants, Mr.. Little
ton, of Oswego, N. Y, in an able speech,
in favor of a Niagara rhip Canal on the
American side, large enough 10 pass YES

present modes of transit are inadequate to
carry Eastward the vast produce of the
West, and all new outlets and enlarge
msnts We can reasonably expect to make
will be filed by their increasing products"
An experienced Chicago grain buyer said
also, that "the freight charges often cover
seven-eighths of the value of q bushel Of
corn at Liverpool More than halt the cost
Of t0heGt IS also covered by the present in
adequate modes of transportation"
In view of these fscts, would it not be

In 1862 the North western people bought
merchandise to the value Of $5s per head,
and Of this SIG per head of foreign manu-
~fscture, and a large share of the balance
from near the sea board. Rven our. vast
grain exports were insufficient to pay for
these goods.
Is it not large enough that we ought to
manufacture a large share of these goodr,

msterials-woOl, coal, iron, &c.2 Have we.
not skill too, and can we not induce expe,
rience and labor TO come here2 We have
both, indeed now, and want them increased.
1t is high time we studied our best inter
ests more carefully, and saw the sdvsnt-
sges Of home manufactures in the North
west and asked for such action, public and
private as shall foster and build up our
manufactures and agriculture together,
each helping the other.
There would still be enough Of our extra
produce TO crowd the avenue of transit
East and satisfy the needs of our friends
IN that region; and we should be, mean
while, saving a vast drain, and gaining q.
great wealth, which we now fail to secure.
