Your lines, dear Olin, are just received,
And while they arc fresh and bright,
I'll answer you immediately
Yes, write to you tonight.
'Tis best to- have letter start
When gladd ming news lights up the heart.
1t is quite pleasant thus tc hear
About your "Fancy Bali
That you say comes off Tuesday night
You mentioned at sthe Hail.
And is it "Birchard Hall, my brother,
Where all you gay ones meet together?
If so, it is the very same,
Where L some years ago,
Went also to that brilliant Hall
At a Festival, you know,
If you remember-but since then
How many changes has there been.
Some scattered here, some scattered there,
Who met on that grand eve.
And one has fallen, saw there.
For which our Army grieve.
Atlanta tells his doom-he died
Aud now lies meath the sod at CLYDE
But pray excuse these sober lines.
My musings thus tonight
For memory with her golden wings,
Came rustling ON so bright
That from your lines / have been
And now | must come hack again
Your Fancy Party" am sure
VIII be a fine affair
And if had pair of wings
I'd soon be with yOu there
That Scottish Chief I'd like to sec.
lnall his pOnlp and dignity
And then, that queer young "Jugglel" too,
would not be afraid,
| think I'd take off his masque
If I a visit paid
He gathered viOlets lOUg ago
For me at "Wildwood" in the snow.
And then that @Organ Grinder" too,
I'd soon jerk off that strap,
From round his neck-and with il give
Him truly-a good slap,
Soaring the monkey" most to death,
Trembling he'd run TO ccdch his breath.
And now for "Early Dawn" says !,

And as she is the last one sought
My heart is much inclined,
To ask OF you my dear young brother
Shall we GEgO np to the "Springs" together

THE CoNsTITUT1oNHL AnIENnMENr.

Gen. John A. McOlernand, of Illinois, has
written letter to the Chicago PoStstrOngly ap-
proving the Constitutional amendment abolish
ing slavery. We make the following extract
from his letter:
Slavery has long been disturbing element
in American politics. 1t has been made sub
ieetof reckless demagogism by extreme partizans
for many years. 1t has served as means of
breaking up the old Constitutional parties and
of establishing on their ruins geographical par
ties. The Democratic party was broken up by
it, because it was a Union party and stood in
the way of the scheme of national dismember-
ment. Later, it blasphemously proclaimed its
immaculacy by provision in the organic law
of the the pseudo Confederacy claiming for it
indefeasibility, and perpetuity. 1t is written,
however, that pride goeth before destruction
and naughty spirit before a fall, and it has
been with slavery. 1t is now dead-virtually
dead by the act and consent of both parties to
the present sanguinary struggle. The rebels
are rapidly emancipating their slaves under the
pressure of military necessity, and are transfer
ring them to their armies to fill up their depleted
ranks. We are doing the same thing, not only
to strengthen our armies, but to weaken our foe.
All that remains OF slavery is to bury its corpse

ASTHMA AND COUGH CURED.

The Pine Tree Tar Cordial gives instanta-
neous relief in cases of Asthma and Whooping
Cough. 1t often cures whooping before it runs
half its course, as it acts at once on the phlegm
and mucus, and expels them from the throat,
and the sufferer is relieved. In case of Asthma,
use Dr. Wisharts Dyspepsia Pills with the Cor
dial, as they have never been known to fail to
cure that disease. .----.--.--- ---------

ANCIENT OIL WORKINGS IN PENNSYLVANIA
The existence of petroleum in this country
must have been known to race of people
who occupied this continent anterior to the
aborigines, found here by Columbus and his
followers, and by whom it must have been
extensively used. This fact has recently
been brought to light by the finding all
through the valley of Oil Greek, and other
oil localities, of hundreds and thousands of
pits, which have evidently been dug for the
purpose of gathering this OIL but at period
SO remote that trees $50 years of age are
found growing upon the earth thrown out of
these pits. 4 very interesting query is
suggested as to who were the people who
dug these pits, and for what purpose was
the oil gathered? They could not have been
dug by the present or recent races of Indians
who have inhabited that country, for they
had neither the means of executing such
work, nor had they any use for such quantities
of the oil as must evidently have been taken
out. These ancient workings must be con-
sidered as another link in the great chain of
evidence which goes to prove that this con-
tinent was once peopled by race of COM
paratively civilized people, the very name
and existence OF which has been forgotten
even in the ancient traditions of the aborigi-
nes found on this continent by Columbus
and his companions.

. UreorvE.-The Chicago correspondent
tho Daily Times relates the story of a
heroine. some of the particulars OF winch are
already known, but which are worth repeat
inc in connection with the additional incl
dents connected with them:
As AN incident to the Fair" says the
writer. ssor rather as an attraction. we have
had as a visitor, Miss Fanny Courtney,
from Tennessee, The name itself is sugges-
five of romance; but her history for the past
four wears is full of romantic and thrilling
adventure, which throw most novels into
the shade. She's fair, fragile, modest. OF
more than ordinary beauty, and not yet
twenty. Her residence is near franklin
and during all the troubles growing out OF
the rebellion, her family, consisting OF her
mother, herself and younger brother, have
maintained their loyalty, and shown upon
every possible occasion their devotion to the
cause of the Union We remember reading
two wears ago, Of one CT her exploits. y
narty of rebel scouts came into the nelghbor
hood She mounted horse, at midnight,
rode fifteen miles TO the Federal lines, and
rave information. A detachment of cavalry
caught the fellows at breakfast. Often has
Fanny performed this kind of service, the
value of which has been acknowledged by
General Thomas And she and her little
brother only twelve years old, went over the
battle fields and through the hospitals. night
and day. caring for our sick and wounded.-
All night long, after the battle of Franklin,
did this little fellow carry water on the field
for the wounded, while Fanny acteda nurse
in the temporary hospital, 1t was touch
ing to see the meeting between her and those
who had been her patients. There was netall
soldier who had his chin shot off in that
battle, and whose head she held while the
wound was being dressed. They met in
Union Hall. The recognition was instan-
taneous. Tears came to the eyes of each,
and with quivering lips did they recall the
circumstances of their meeting, months ago.
She does not speak of her exploits. or of her
labors of love in the hospitals, and it annoys
her to have them referred to IL her presence
but there were too many who had received
kindness at her hands on the battle field or
in the hospital, to permit her good deeds to
remain unknow. OF course she did not es-
cape all kinds of rebel prosecutions. At one
time she and her mother were arrested and
taken before court. As they passed in the
chivalry actually spit in their faces-but
perfectly calm and remarkably selfpossess-
ed, she plead her own cause, and the judge
let them off with warning. The ladies
here, to express some appreciation OF her
services, presented her with an elegant
watch and chain. Tears, woman's eloquence,
was the only reply she could make.
