RThe failure to mention the Promenade
Concert of Friday evening in aid of the funds
of the Ladies Sanitary Committee, was purely
accidental. The concert was perfect success
The Hall was filled and the spacious floor covered
with paaticipators in the merry dance. TIE re-
cepts must have been very gratifying, and will
do much to aid the noble work in which the
Ladies Committee are eng aged. Other similar
concerts, We understand, are to follow. l8aW d

gent, of Newburyport, was retiringto rest, last
week, ne set down his lamp and blep out the
light when instantanssously the gas in the lamp
bleac up, giving a report like small pistol
The lamp was not broken, the discharge being
through the tube, but the oil remaining in the
tube was turned as white as snow. This. saws
the Herald, is the third kerosene explosion in
that city within week, and shows that very
inferior article of oil is sold in that market. 1t
is quite sure it is not the Portland kerosene.

The stream is calmest when it nears the tide,
And flowers are sweetest at the eventide,
And birds most musical at close of day,
And saints divinest when they pass away.
Morning is lovely, but holier charm
Lies folded close in evenings robe of balm !;
And weary man must ever love her best,
For morning calls to toll, but night to rest.
She cones from heaven, and on her wings
doth bear
A holy fragrance, like the breath OF prayer !;
Footsteps of angels follow in her trace,
To shut the weary eyes of day in peace.
All things are hushed before her as she throws
Ger earth and sky her mantle of repose
There is calm, beauty and power,
That morning knows not, in the evening
hour.
t.Until the Evening" we must weep and toll,
Plough life's stern furrow, dig the weedy soil,
Tread with sad feet our rough and thorny
way,
And bear the heat and burden of the day.
Ohl when our sun is setting, may we glide,
Like summer evening, down the golden tide +;
And leave behind US, as we pass away,
Sweet, starry twilight round our sleeping day !

would buy a stock of moal or bacon. The
Galveston Neos says: "We saw a pan

establish Sunday school and night
school for them, and also to have them
taught on Wednesday and Saturday after

ORIGIN OF THE COP HYMEN.-Dan-
chet, the French poet, tells us that Hy-
men was young man of Athens, OBJ
scurely born, but extremely handsome
Falling in love with lady of rank, he
disguised himself in female attire, the
better to carry on his amour; and as he
was one day on the seashore celebrating g
the Eleusinian rites with his mistress and
her female companions, gang of pirates
came upon them by surprise and carried
them off to distant land, where the
pirates got drunk for JOY and fell asleep.
Hymen then armed the virgin, and des-
patched the sleeping pirates when, leav-
ing the two women upon the island, he
sped to Athens, told his adventure, and
demanded his beloved in marriage as her
ransom. His request was granted and
so fortunate was the marriage, that the
name of Hymen was ever after invoked
on all future nuptials and in progress of
time the Greeks enrolled him among
their gods.

MEDFoRp. Mass Oct. s. 1865

MEDFoRD, MASS, Oct. ., 1000.
My DEAR SIR: l was so much i'm
pressed with our conversation of last
Tuesday, that l returned Immediately to
my room and wrote down such Of the
points made as l could remember, and
having pondered them all the way home,
am to-day more than ever convinced that,
if corrected by you and returned to me
for either public or private use: it will so
far to promote a good understanding De
tween you and our leading men.
1t will also unite the public mind in
favor of your plan, SO far at least as you
would carry it out without notification
much with men in political life, but rather
with those who, representing the ad-
vanced moral sense OF the country, earn
estly labor for the good of our people,
without hope of, or even desire for Office
or other immediate reward. The latter
class desire earnestly to understand your
plans, and, if possible, support your al
ministration.
l think the publication of your process
of reconstruction, with the reasons for
your faith 10 it, will commend itself to
their candid judgment, aud, as told you,
inspire our whole Northern people with
confidence in your administration
The report is meagre and unsatisfac-
tory, bu. think it conveys, for the most
part, the spirit of our conversation
Therefore, although the whole tenor of
your words led me to believe that it was
not intended to be kept private, [ have
refraned from answering the specific in
quiries Of anxious frierds, whom | met on
my way home, lest [ might, in some way,
leave a wrong impression on their minds.
Truly your friend,
GEORGE i. STEARNs

Execution of Champ FurgusOn.

Champ Furguson, the notorious and
inhuman guerilla, was hung in Nashville
on the goth of October. The Western
papers are full of accounts of the oxecu-
ton. We make the following extracts:
The hour of eleven having arrived,
Champ was warned that the time had come
when he must prepare to die. 81 am
ready when you are," be said to the Off
Ger of the guard. He was then led out to
the scafold. His step was firm, his car
riage erect, and his bearing bold and de-
6ant as ever. On reaching the platform,
he faced the two or three hundred audi
tors and the guards without blenching,
but requested that DIR. Bunting should
pray for him. The Doctor complied with
the request, and implored the Throne of
Grace to have mercy on the prisoner
During the prayer, the condemned wept
the first evidence of emotion which he
had yet given.
The charges and specifications against
him were then read, and the finding Of
the Military Commission. After this had
been done, Col. Shafter turned to the
prisoner and said:
'1a obedience to this order, Mr. Fer
guson, 1t Is my duty to execute you"
81 know it, responded the prisoner.
"Do you censure me?" inquired the
Colonel
"Not particularly" was responded
"Have you anything to say ?''
81 can't speak much," said Furguson !;
81 did some Of the acts charged, but not
all. | desire, Colonel, not to have my
body cut up by the doctors, but want to
have it put in that thing, (pninting to tho
cofhn,) and taken to the graveyard in
White county, Tennessee, and laid there.
You wont have me cut up, will you, Col
onel?"
"No," responded the Colonel; "you
shall not be cut up. Your body shall be
sent to your friends. Have you anything
more to say?
"Well, whenever you say stop, I'll
STOP" said the doomed man 'I an under
your control; 1 wouldn't be here if
could help it, but must submit WhatI
am, l am, and [ can't help it; but you
would not have my body cut up, would
you, Colonel ?'
The Col. assured him that his remains
should be given to his family
II have," continued the prisoner, "some
as good friends as any man; but they
can't help me now. All L have to say is
that l don't want to be cut up by the doc
tors will you put my body in that thing"
again pointing to his cofin-"and send
it to White county, Tenn, and have it
buried in the old graveyard there p
The Colonel again assured him that be
would accede to his request.
The cap of death was then drawn down
over his face, and Col. Shafter said
"HaVe you anything to say? If you
have, say it now, and we will val. on you"
Raising his hand toward heaven, be
said in solemn tone:
"Lord have mercy on me, pray you;"
and as his voice ceased, by stroke of the
axe, the support was severed, and the i
drop fell, and the prisoner was suspended |
between Heaven aud earth.
The drop fell at precisely twenty min
utes before twelve, and no remained |
hanging twenty.fv minutes, when the
body was cut down and laid in the coffn,
and conveyed away. His neck was broken,
and he bled profusely at the nose. After
he fell his bo6y moved but twice, and
that slightly, so great was the shock of
the descent.

with President johnson, in which he

His countenance is healthy even moro

remarked that the people of the North
were anxious that the process OF recon
struction should be thorough and they
wished to support him in the arduous
work, but their ideas were confused by
the conflicting reports constantly circu-
lated, and especially by the present posi-
tion of the Democratic party. 1t is in
dustriousIy circulated in the Democratic
Clubs that he is going over to them. He
laughingly replied: " Major, have you

had differed from your views because you
were in advance of him, claim them as

You and 1 need no preparation for this
conversation; we can talk freely on this

WHAT SHERIDAN. SAYS OF OUR
SOLDIERS.

The Counhy0son Of the 18th publishes a
letter from Rev. George. G. N Mcdonnell;
reporting the substance OF conversation he
had with very intelligent lady, friend of
his, who had been exicd from Atlanta under
Shermrn's edict. This lady had an interview
with Gen. Sherman before she left Atlanta,
in which be. paid juct and yell merited tri-
butte to the valor of our nrms. We copy from
Mr.. McDonnelPs letter:
'Ie (Sherman) remarked that it would be
no disgrace to US if we were subjugated- we
certainly would be-as we had fought against
four or FIVE times our number with degree of
valor which bad excited the admiration of the
world; and. that the United States Government
would gain no honor nor credit if rhey succeed.

rogardea' the Southern soldiers as the bravest
in the world, and admitted that in fair field
fight We could, whip them two to one; but he
claimed for himself and his eerhpeers the credit
of possessing more strategic ability than our
Generals. *You can beat MS in fighting, mad
am" said he. "but'we can out maneuvre you,.
your Generals do not work half enough; We
work day and night, and spare no labor nor

Referring to his evacuation of the trenches
