Then, suddenly changing to Ger
man, he cried out:
''Holloa, Vorspann, We are pressed
for time. Spring into the saddle, nv
lad, and use your spurs well, and We
shall have Baerisch ducat for your
stage"
AS if obedient to the command.
Joseph mounted at once; and steep as
the road was, by dint of spurs, whip
and voice, he struck out into q half
shuffling canter, the very utmost speed
his beasts could accomplish. With
many shock and bound. the col,zche
sprang from side to side of the narrow
road, while the same who last spoke
cried out:
$50 much for patriotism! The pro.
mise OF ducat would open the Tyrol
from Bregenz to Trent"
The words were not well-uttered
when q loud cry rent the air: the
horses sprang abruptly to one side.
and the ctldche, with tremendous
jerk, upset; and had not the wheel
become entangled in a stunt9d oak
tree, must have fallen over the cliff.
where, for q second or. two, the horses
hung as if suspended, and then, as the
strained tackle gave way, fell with q
laundering crash into the dark abyss
-aethe last cry of the boy being the
war-cry of his Vaterland, "F5'ei ist
4ko1!"
Such was the devotion of this poor
child-he was scarcely more-that he
dashed the blind horses over the
steepest precipice of the Arlberg,
ready to meet death in it's most terri
bic form, if he could involve in his
fate his country's enemies. His
mangled body was found the following
day beside the stream in the glen.
The travellers escaped with slight in
jury, tobrood over their own unhappy
trifing with PEASANTS faith and u
Tyroler's devotion.

The slee sing Child.

A brook went dancing on it's way,
From bank to valley leap;ng,
AID by its sunny Ina<giu sSY
A lovely infant sleeping;
The murmur Of the pouring stream
Broke not the spell which bound him, ~
Like music breathing in his dream,s
A lullaby around him.
It is a lovely spot to v;cw,.
Within this Ho Id Of sorrow,
Ono spot which still retains the hue
That earth from heaven may borrow;
And such was this scene so fair,
Arrayed In summer brightness,
And one poor being rested there,
One soul OF radiant Whitencss.
What happy dreams, fair Child, are given,
To cast their sunshine Ger theeo
What chord nnites thy soul to heaven,
Where visions pail before thee?
For wandering souls Of cloudlcss mirth.
Der thy fair features beaming,
Say not thought form of earth,
Alloys thine ho,tr Of dreaming!
Sleep, lovely babe! for times cold touch
Shall make these visions wither;
Youth and dreams which charm SO much.
Shall fade and fly together;
Then sleep, while sleep is pure and mild,
Ere earthly ties grow stronger;
When thou shalt be no more child,
And dream Of heaven no longer.

Special to the Eonrier--By Underground
Telegraph,

The Worlds special under date of Febru'
ary 5th, says the rebel peace commissioners
arrived at Washington last night and this
morning, accompanied by old Blair and MAJ
General (ex) Mcclellan, at II O'Clock a.
NJ, they proceeded to the Presidents Man
sion, lit used to be House but has quit
that where they were received by the Pres
ident in person, who vent opt into the porch
to welcome them, gsseefally ignoring all GER
emony, nor waiting for the formal introduc-
tion for which f. p B. Sr. had straddled his
legs, taken off his hat and struck poslsh.
He opened his arms, receiving the leading
reb. therein and bussed him on each cheek,
reb holding his nose, submitted. In turn
each of the Peace Commissioners, each hold
ing his nose between his dexter isaapb and
finger, submitted to like embrace from the
United States. Humbly bowling, Abrnham
backed himself into the mansion, followed by
high headed rebs into the East room, where,
with that grace and sauvity tor which he is so
noted, he motioned them to seats on the Uni
ted States divans, while the United States re-
smained standing before the representative
royalty and thus received their credentials
from JEFF. l. 1t is rumored that the demands
of jefferson are entirely satisfactory to the
United States.
The Herald's special of February 5th, four
O'Clock P. NJ, says rebel Peace Commission.
ers arrived yesterday at Washington, and at
IL A. NJ, preceded BY hand of mnsic and
followed by large procession of o4r most
respectable citizens and Congress. among
whom was Sunset Coy and Sepator McDoug-
al, marched towards the Presidents House.
In the procession flags were flying. the Stars
and Stripes and the Stars and Bars graceful
ly waving and Interviewing, while cheer up
on cheer went up from the vast crowd as the
procession moved up the Avenue.
The Tribune's special of same date. says
Confederate scrip has advanced to bit a
bushel.
The Times special says much excitement
prevails in the gold market in consequence
of the prevalent and seemingly well authen-
ticated peace rumors.
A special dispatch to the Baltimore Amer
ican from Charleston, under date of February
9th, says Sherman is laying on his oars wait
ing the result of the peace negotiations.
The Richmond Enquirer of February 5th
SAYS the water in the Dutch Gap canal has
been running up stream since the departure
of the Peace Commissioners for Washington.
The National Intelligencer of February
says there is no truth in the many reports
that Peace Commissioners have arrived from
Richmond. The whole thing is purely sensa.
tional, and gotten up by Wall street.
