interview yesterday with VIM. II. Dorsey,
ofSthis vicinity, a private in Company A.,

the 9TH of December, on account of chronic
diarrhoea. and was transferred from hos
pital to hospital, till he arrived at Tripler
Hospital, near this city, about ten days
since. When he left Company A it consist
ed of only six men fit for duty. 1t went
from this city in August, 1862, over one
hundred strong-all well developed and
promising young men. In any event. come
peace soon or late, but very small fraction
of this gallant company will ever reach
their homes. afEL'.

THEFRozEN TERM.-We hear talk in sum-
meraboutthe cheated term" But this win
ter will be long remembered for its protract-
ed frozen term. 1t has been sleighing term
too, continued beyond any other known
in this latitude for many years. And this
frozen, sleighing term still continues, and,
for any present sign to the contrary, is
likely to continue. 1t commenced about
Christmas Since then we have had alter
nate rain and snow, the latter, however,
maintaining its empire over the earth in
tact Occasionally it has thawed a little
butasubsequent freeze would soon make the
dominion of the snow and ice king frmer
than before. The roadways, streets and
sidewalks are generally now covered with
a bed of solid frozen snow or ice, as hard
and immovable as granite almost. Yester-
day was one of the coolest days of this
long frozen term; 50 was the day before
Probably to-day will turn out to be another.

leaning upon his arm she went below. The GER
emony was performed, and half an hour later a
sweet young face half hidden by its bridal lace,
looking tearfully out from the carriage window,
bidding silent adieu to all, and that was the
last of Ethel Carlton.
Six years later sad, pale woman stopped at
one ofthe hotels of the city of S. 1t was Mrs.
Thorne, our little friend Ethel. Life was des-
.ined to be to her weary pilgrimage. Her mar
riage had proved unfortunate. Her husband
was cold, cruel, causelessly jealous, and worse
than all nova bloated mebrate.
How singulerly threads of existence are inter
woven. How strangely fates run across. Sit
ting quietly in the public parlor of the hotel,
Ethel raised hfr eyes to meet the earnest gaze of
the only ml.H She had ever loved, and from
whom, for nearly half her life, she had been sep
arated. He came eagerly forward at her glance
of ofrecogntion, clasped her hand eagerly, then, as
if remembering their social positions, dropped
and stepped back respectfully, saying earnestly,
"Ethel, tell me, are you happy? Do you find
all the bright dreams Of early life realizedY'
What right had ne to question her? He, the
author ofall her trouble? For a moment her
cheeks paled and her eyes sought the ground,
but pride again came to the rescue, and She re-
piled firmly, eyes"
He spoke not for a moment; his eyes filled with
tears he gazed upon her with such lingering,
hopeless tenderness. At length with trem-
bling unatural voice he said:
"Ethel, life is worthless to me-"
Then turning he left her, passed out of the
house, and she knew he had gone to return there
no more.
For a week her brain was in a constant whirl
of excitement, hundred different emotions stri-
wing for the mastery. At the end of that time
a sudden summons came to her. Her husband
crossing rickety bridge in the night, had fallen
into the river and was drowned. His body af-
ter a long search had been recovered.
With dismay she hastened home, feeling in
her heart almost that she was his murderer, as
that the shock had fallen as ajudgmentupon her
for the wickedness of entertaining feelings for
another which in themselves were sin.
The funeral obsequies were performed-and
in her desolate home Ethel sat down to muse
over her singular yet wholly unhappy life
Clouds and darkness seemed closing with den
sity around her. There were no struggling rays
Of sunshine-naught but deep impenetrable
gloom.
And thus days ana weeks went by-and then
/ Nothing save The tatgled web of life was made
smooth. All that had seemed strange and mys-
terious in the past WIS explained by the appear
ance of Frank Eaton, who true to the first love
Of his heart, had walled on through long hope
less years firmly belieyng that the time would
come when the one wish of his heart could be
realized, the wish to claim his little Ethel as his
own loved bride.

Our Sorrow.

There was time when whispers soft
Breathed from that sunny strand
Where an unending summer smiled
Upon beauteOus land
Where peaceful as Christians thoughts
The silver waters flowed,
And natures hand most bounteously
Her choicest gifts bestowed.
There was time when links Of love
Bound that fair land of flowers;
When heart with heart and hand with hand,
Made common cause with ours;
When gTandly rose nations voice,
Attuned to Freedoms strains,
In tones shat shook the dungeon walls
And loosed e'en Europe's chains.
There was a time when glowing skies
Bent kindly over all,
Undimmed by these Exchanging clouds
That now seem freedoms pail
Ere yet the bravest and the best
To wars mad rage were given
Ere vet the ties that bound us one
By passions touch were riven.
That time isin the vanished past;
The hurying years roll on,
Till all but magic memory's dream
Is faded past and gone.
Wars thunders roll their terror far
Where lutelike strains breathed love!
Wars clouds obscure the blessed light
From heavens bright spheres above.
In vain, Oh, wicked man, III vain
Thy long-mouthed cannon's roar,
Naught will ye gain but folly's wrecks
Strewn on Times bloody shore.
To reunite the severed links
Of Unions golden chain,
Lies in true Christian words and deeds,
Not DER the battle plain.
There is power more potent fur
Within loving word,
Than all the murd'rous battle shocks
Stunned mortals ever heard.
The torch may light the yictor's path,
The sword its realms increase,
Yet win a mead of lasting hate
Instead of Love and peace.
From out this night Of bitter woe,
Ruler Of earth and skies
If It's Thy will, bid brighter suns
And purer mOrns arise;
Shed DER the land the light divine,
The symbol of Thy form;
Call back Thy messenger OF wrath,
The thunder clouds and storm.

HAsTY MARRIAGE.-There is no city, there is
scarcely a township, which does not number
among its inhabitants women who have married
on a very short acquaintance, only to be abused,
deserted, and left life long sorrow in the fami-
lies which theyimprudently and improperly de-
serted to share the fortunes of relative strangers
If young ladies would only realize how grossly
indelicate, as well as culpably reckless, such
marriages appear to the eyes of the observing,
they would surely forbear. A years thorough
acquaintance with the most circumstantial ac-
counts, from disinterested and reliable witness
es, of the antecedents, from childhood, are the
very least guarantees which any woman who re-
allies what marriage is, will require of stran-
ger. Even then, if her parents arc not fully sat
sfed, as well as herself, she should still hesi-
tate. Marriage is an undertaking in which no
delay can be so hazardous as undue precipita-

BIG SNoozE Away out in Missouri they
live the primitive system. People sleep as
well as eat in companies, and in many of the
hotels there are from three TO dozen beds in
eacn chanahep~ on cold winters night, a
weary and fo0tworn traveller arrived at one of
these carayansaries by the roadside. After step
ping into the bar-room and taking the requisite
number Of 'drinks," he invoked the attention
of the accommodating landady with this inter-
rogatory:
81 say, ma'am, have you got q considerable
number Of beds in your housel"
eyes, answered she, ~ reckon we have"
elbow many beds have you, about this time,
that ain no ways engaged?
"Well, we've one room up stairs with eleven
beds in it,"
"Thats just right, said the traveller, ''I will
take that room, and engage all the beds, if you
please"
The landlady, not expecting any more c0mpa-
ny that night, and thinking that her guest might
wish to be alone, consented that he should oc-
cupy the room. But no sooner had the wayfar
er rested, than large party arrived, and de-
manded lodgings for the night. The landlady
told them she was very sorry, but all her rooms
were engaged; true there was one room with
eleven beds in it, and only one gentleman"
''We must 60 there, then-we must have beds
there.
The party accordingly proceeded to the cham
Der with beds, and raped. No answer was re-
turned They essayed to open the door-it was
locked They shouted aloud, but received no
reply. Al last, driven to desperation, they de-
cded upon bursting open the door They no
sooner did so than they discovered every bed
stead empty, and all the beds piled upon one
another, in the room with the traveller sound
asleep on the top. They with some difficulty
aroused him, and demanded what in the world
he wanted with all those beds.
"Why, look here, strangers, said he, "I ain t
had no sleep these eleven nights; so 1 just hired
eleven beds to get rested all at once, and make
up for what have lost. | calculate to do up a
considerable mess of sleeping; I've hired all
these beds, and paid for them, and hang me il

How TO BECOME UNHAPPY.-In the first place,
if you want to be miserable, be selfish. Think
all the time of yourself and of your own things.
Don't care about any body else. Haveno feel
ing for any one but yourself. Never think Of
enjoying the satisfaction Of seeing others hap
py, but rather if you see smiling face, be ieal-
Gus, lest another should enjoy what you have
not. Envy all who are better off in any respect
than yourself; think unkindly toward them
Be constantly afraid lest some should encroach
upon your rights; be watchfu against it, and if
any one comes near you, snap at him like mad
dog Contend earnestly for everything that is
your own, though it be not worth a pin; for
your frightsV are just as much concerned as if
it were pound of gold Never yield point.
Be very sensitive, and take everything that is
said to you in playfulness in the most serious
manner. Be jealous of your friends, lest they
should not think enough of you; and if at any
time they should seem to neglect you, put the
worst construction upon their conduct you can.

WHAT HOLDS THE EARTH Up?-A teacher in a
western county in Canada while making his
first visits to his Constituents" came in con-
versation with an ancient 'Varmount' lady, who
had taken up her residence in the 'backwoods.
OF course the school and the former teachers
came out for criticism; and the old lady, speak
ing of his predecessor, asked: ''Wa'al master
what do you think he larnt the scholars Could
not say maam; pray what did he teach p"
"Wa'al, he told EN- that this ere airth was
round, and went areound, and all that sort o.
thing. Now, master, what do you think about
such stuff? Don't you think he was an ignorant
feller?" Unwilling to come under the category
Of the Ignorant, the teacher evasiyely remarked;
''lt really did seem strange; but still there are
many learned men who teach these things'
"Wa'al, says the old lady, "if the airthis round
and goes round, what holds it up2" go these
learned men say that it goes around the sun, and
that the sun holds it up by virtue of the law of
attraction" The old lady lowered her specs
and by the way Of climax responded: "Waai,
if these high larnt men sez the sun holds the
airth, l should like to know what holds the
airth up when the sun goes do DOWN."

A SINGULAR TRADITIoN. the Seminole
Indians there is q singular tradition regarding
the white mans origin and superiority. They
say that when the Great spirit made the earth,
he also made'three men, all of whom were fair
complexioned; and that after making them, he
led them to the margin of small lake, and
bade them leap in and wash. One obeyed, and
came out Of the water purer and fairer than be-
fore; the second, hesitated moment, during
which time, the water, agtated by the first, had
become muddleG and when he bathed he came
up copper-colored; the third did not leap in
til the water became black with mud, and he
came out with his own color. Then the Great
Spirit laid before them three packages, and out
of pity for his misfortune in color, he gave the
black man the first choice. He took hold Of
each of the packages, and having feltthe weight,
chose the heaviest; the copper colored man
then chose the next heaviest, leaving the white
man the lightest. When the packages were
opened, the first was found to contain spades,
hoes and all the implements of labor; the Sec
ond uwrapped hunting, fishing and warlike ap-
paratus; the third gave the white pens,
ink and paper, the engines of the the mind-the
means Of mutual, mental Improvement, the So
cial link of humanity, the foundation of tho
white mans superiority.
