Select gostru,
HOME AND FRIENDS,

Oh there's power to make each hour
AS sweet as Heaven designed it;
Nor need we roam to bring it home,
Though few there be that find it.
we seek too high for things close by,
And lose what nature gave us;
For life hath here no charms so dear
AS home and friends around US.
We oft destroy the present joy
For future hopes-and praise them
Whilst flowers as sweet bloom at our feet,
Ii we'd but stoop to raise them.
For tn ings afar still sweeter are
when youths bright spell hath bound us :;
But soon we're taught that earth has naught
Like home and friends around us
The friends that speed in time of need,
When hopes last reed is shaken.
Do show US still that come what will,
We are not quite forsaken.
Though all were night if but the light
From friendships alter crowned us.
'Twould prove the bliss of earth was this
Our home and friends around US.

The Indian Expedition.

FORT LARAMIE Oct 1-General Conner
returned On Saturday from the Powder-riv
er Indian expedition. His columns will be
here in six days The results OF the cam
paign were four pitched battles with the
Cheyennes, Sioux, and Arrapahoes, with a
loss on our side of Captain Cole, of the 9th
Michigan, and twenty four men killed and
two wounded, and an Indian loss of fol:
hundred TO five hundred killed, and large
number wounded; the entire destruction of
the village OF the Arrapahoes, and the cap
ture Of five hundred head of horses and
mules.
The Arrapahoes acknowledge the loss of
slxty-elght Of their braves in one battle and
are now coming in to make peace. 1t is
thought, however, that the Sioux and Che
yennes are not half whipped. Not less than
htteen hundred men should be stationed at
Fort Conner, and the campaign continued
during the winter. The citizens fear that the
Sioux and Cheyennes will come back on the
road and interfere with the mails and tele-
graph. The expedition was carried cut un-
der the most embarrassing circumstances.
Not pound of the stores intended for the
expedition arrived in time for USE The
troops were mutinous, and claimed their
discharge because the rebellion has ceased,
and regiments were mustered out almost as
SOOl stS liIcy arrived on the plalnS.

everybody. \ brace Of decanters, tum

there, as if they had stood there from the

and as he beheld the blushing bottles, he

THE PEACE AUTUMN.

ny JOHN @. WHITTIER.
Thonk God for rest where nohe molest,
And none can make afraid,-
For Peace that sits as Plentyi guest,
Beneath the homestead shade
Bring pike and gun, the swords red Scourge,
The negros broken chains,
And beat them at the blacksmith forge
To ploughshares for our plains.
Alike henceforth our hills Of snow,
Aud wales where cotton flowers
All streams that flow, all winds that blow,
Are Freedoms motiye-powers.
Henceforth to Labor's chivalry,
Be knightly honors paid;
Fer nobler than the swords shall be
The sickle's accolade.
Build up an altar TO the Lord,
o grateful hearts Of ours
And shape 1t Of the greenest sward
That ever drank the showers.
Lay all the bloom of gardens there,
And there the orchard fruits
Bring golden grain from sun and air,
From earth her goodly roots.
There let our banners droop and flow,
The stars uprse and fall;
Our roll Of Martyrs, sad and slow,
Let signing breezes call.
Their names let hands Of horn and tan
And rough shod feet applaud,
Who died to make the slave a man,
Aud link with ton reward
There let the common heart keep time
To such an anthem sung,
As never swelled on poets rhyme,
Or thrilled on singers tongue.
Song Of our burden and relief,
OF peace and long annoy
The passion Of our mighty grief
And our exceeding joy
A song OF praise to Him who filled
The harvests sown in tears,
And gave each field double yield
To feed our battle years
A song of faith that trusts the end
To match the good begun,
Nor doubts tn power of Love to blend
The hearts Of men rs onel
