OUR VETERANS HOME.

The order has been promulgated giving our
brave veterans the privilege to return to their
homes and the peaceful pursuits ofprivate life.
And by virtue of this order thousands nave
left the fields oftheir late bravery, whercon trey
displayed such gallant heroism and daring, for
their homes in tho different States. The cars
and engines of the various railroad lines over
which they had to travel, have been busy for
week past in transporting them to the places
of their destinations and, it was glorious
sight to see these brave fellows, with their
hands and faces Drowned with toll, and their
muscular strength increased by the hardships,
of the campaigns through which they passed,
standing erect in the majesty of their greatness.
the heroic defenders of our National honor
and flag. Having accomplished their mission
thev now have come home, with the honors of
the land. and the wreaths of peace upon their
brows. For the past four years they have
stood like flint with their faces to the foe
they have met the flower of the rebel army in
the shock of battle and came off victorious =
Their lives have been living commentary on
the power of our military arms, and their de-
votion to country has elucidated greater
principle than was ever evolved by any other
age or nation. In after years their deeds will
be recounted in classic story, and when their
children become grandfathers they will take
pleasure in rehearsing the deeds and adven-
lures of their fathers to those who are growing
up around them. A great deed can never die !;
therefore is it that the noble works which our
brave soldiers have accomplished will live in
storied Immortality in the hearts of future
generations.

Official Map of New Jersey.

The following notice from the Salem Stand
ard we fully endorse and copy entire.
FL. Ii. Lloyd & Co., well known through
the country for their enterprise in publishing
maps of different sections of our country, as
well as for the excellence of their work, have
just completed a large map ofthe State of New
Jersey. This map is an official one, and is
from drawings and plans furnished by DIR. W.
5. kitchell, the late State geologist, who per-
sonally visited every part of the State and
carefully examined its physical and geographi-
cal features. So complete and thorough were
his researches made by legislative authority
and direction, that years must elapse before
another publication will be rendered necessary.
In addition to an accurate delneation OF State,
county, township and city lines and boundaries,
1t possesses many other features of equal value.
All the public roads are carefully laid down
that by aid of this map alone, an entire stranger
could travel from one place in the State to al
most any other in it, without any fear of losing
bis road. The farm houses are indicated by
dots along the roads, so that he could even go
to friends house under its guidance. The
physical features-mountain, hill, valley, plain,
woodland, forest, swamp and marsh, are all rep
resented, so that at glance th6 leading char
acterlstics of our much abused State can be
seen. Upon marginal map the meterologi-
cal condition-the annual fall of rain, the tenn
perature, marked by isothermal lines, and ap-
propriate figures are given. These features,
modern ones in map drawing, in addition to
the well known excellence in engraving usually
given by the Lloyds, makes this the most COM
prehensive and desirable map of the State ever
published. In work of this kind, of course
but limited number of copies will be pub
lished. No person who feels the interest he
ought in our noble State should neglect to
have copy to ornament his house or office.
In family of children this map is worth vol
ume in giving to them an accurate knowledge
of the State, and for giving relish for the
study of Geography Tho p-;es vf .iro map rs

terial of all kinds used in its manufacture. F.

That histry ever traced;
The Right is now victorious,
The guilty are abaaed
We now have names OF yaior

Our foreign foes, in paiior,
Are looking on aghast
Well did that bIest Commission

The wounded body's anguish,
And shelter to obtain
For those else doomed to anguish
Upon the bloody plain.

THE WORMS ON THE TREES.

We sing OF the dlsagreeable worm,
See him wrggle, and twist and squirm;
See him spinning his web from the tree
Ready-to swing against you and me-
This ugly creature, the ''measuring worm,"
Delights to wrggle, and twist and squrm,
And though he's ugly, he won't refuse
TO look at his various patterns and haes:
Some are black and some are b.acker,
And some the shade of u bit Of tobacco.
Some dingy sort OF green,
The ughest thing that ever was seen 4N
And there's peculiarly ugly fellow,
All strip ped with black, and spotted with yellow
This dismally wretched reptile crawls ;.
On the ladies' bonnets and parasols.
And sometimes. indeed he gets Into their faces
Whereupon they Indulge in unhandsone grimaees,
And bring down their hands with an elegant whack
On the top of the horrible creatures back;
This in most instances, puts him to death,
By suddenly taking away his breath
DO you ask. if you would like to know,
Why the creature. SO patient and slow, ~------~
A nuisance to you and a nuisance TO me?
This is the reason; I'll just tell you,
He hasnG anything else to do!
The good time to buy clothing has come at last and
people from all quarters are improving it, by making
their purchases. We still have good assortment,
