"OnIy a Little Brook"

A simple but very touching incident
has been related to us, says the Maine
Press, in connection with the last mo-
ments of a beautiful little girl in Bath,
who lately died at the age of nine
years and eleven months. A very lit
tie while before she died, as the sor-
rowing friends stood around her
watching the last movements of the
gentle breath, the last faint futtering
in the little pulse, they became aware,
from her broken words, that she
shrank with natural dread from the
unknown way that was opened before
her. She had come to the borders of
the mysterious river which separates
us from the dim hereafter, and her
timid feet seemed to hesitate and fear
to stem the flood. But after a time
her fear subsidized, she grew calm and
ceased to talk about the long dark way,
till ct the very last she frightened
suddenly, a smile of confidence and
courage lighted up her sweet facet
ooh, it's only little brook 70 she
cried, and so passed over to the heav-
enly shore. E

letter from Illinois.
NEAR PITTsFIELD, Pike Co.,
Illinois, july 7. 1866.

ILLINOIS, July I, 1866. I
Mr.. ED1ToR-Dear Sir: No one of your
Township contributors has, so far as have
observed, reported "Newburg." This Ia
one of the best townships, if not the best,
in this county, all things considered. We
have fair crop of Wheat, ranging, as is
supposed, from ten to twenty bushels to
the acre, of most excellent quality,
Winter Wheat.)
Mr.. Carey Hicks, formerly from Old
Highland, has threshed out one field, which
averaged thirty -one bushels to the acre.
This is in Hardin township, little beyond
Time, yet not in Eternity.
"Time r'-What a queer name for a
Town!
Here and there, there is q small piece
not worth cutting. This, in my opinion,
has been owing to injury received in the
fall from some disease resembling rust
generally early sown wheat. From what
can learn there has not been so much
raised in any other part of the county, ex-
cepting along the Mississippi bottoms.
The prospect for Corn is excellent, in
Old Newburg. Oats an average CROP
Potatoes and other vegetables doing well.
Abundance of Cherries. Apples not SO
plenty as last year, yet there will be many
shipped from the township.
have travelled extensively this Spring
and Summer, in the counties of Adams,
Hancock, McDonough, D., Schuyler and
Brown. With the exception of McDon-
ough, the Wheat looked pretty thin. That
county think will cut an average crop
(Sprin9 Wheat. Adams is most excel
lent county-will have good crop of
Corn and an abundance of Apples. The
Corn in the other counties is quite indif-
ferent. Fruit not abundant. In all my
travels have never seen as fine grazing
on uncultivated ground as there is in Ham
cock county. Even in the wild woods the
ground is thickly set in blue grass and
white clover-never saw the like.
Stock of all kinds is sscarce-particularly
cattle, in all these counties, including Pike.
Zone old gentleman told me that one of his
neighbors charged five dollars sight for
hog's track y
have also travelled pretty generally
over Scott, Morgan, Sangamon, Macon and
Logan counties, since came West. These
are all most excellent counties of land
Macon and Logan have considerable rather
fiat land, and quite scarcity of timber.

minent breach" Congress, as the legisla-
tive power of the peoples Government,
which is Republican in form and should
be in fact, has adopted its plan of adjust
ment, fixing the basis of Representation
upon the standard of tho actual voting
population, leaving the States themselves
to determine who shall vote, and punish
ing by exclusion from Office that class Of
rebels, who violated their oaths and raised
their parricidal hands to destroy the Gov
ernment.
We have lived to see a call issued by the
Democratic members of Congress, for a
Convention to meet in Philadelphia, to sus-
tain "my policy'-that is, the tone man
power" against that of Congress. That
call is endorsed by Wood, vallandigham,

nounces the "War Democracy" declares

vention, whom he characterizes as "those
demagogues who have during the past five
years attempted to poison the pure foun.

But strange as it may be, there is anoth.
er class of endorsers of this movement
whose position we must notice. They
claim that the Convention should be COM
posed of loyal Union men, who have stood
by the Government in the past, who have
shown their sincerity by their deeds. Says
one of these endorsers, who carefully ig
nores the action of Congress in the premis
es: "The restoration will be complete
when loyal men are admitted as represen
tatives of the loyal people of the clever
States so long unrepresented in Congress-
Now is this the object of Wood, Voorhees,
Vallandigham & Co., in seizing hold of tn
movements Do they desire to secure tn
admittance of only "ioyal men," into Con

dContO Thursday,

now course through all my veins. Oh, thou
passive, powerless giant, thy spell Is brokeni
Thou didst captivate my sense Of taste,
and 30 perverted all my senses to thy de-
basing uses. All this has changed. Now
my common sense makes Of thee q SER
want in every sense, OF all the senses, which
is altogether more sensible. f-.t..s
You ask me to describe the struggle
Well, sir, the first step was to challenge
the adversary. This / did in form, re-
peating aloud thus: ''Tobacco! theft
usurperi defy thee ~" The same mo-
ment cast the quid from my mouth, say
ing as before, ''Sum Of pollution, re-enter
nevermore."
As might be supposed, his dumb majes-
ty commenced regular siege with all his
available force, under his renowned cap
tains, Habit aud Appetite. The strategy
upon my part consisted in "masterly ac-
tivity," being on the defensive. We at
tempted some JeintS. General Drowsiness
dismissed in disgrace and Colonel obstina-
cy promoted to the vacancy.
Second Day.--A flag of truce from the
enemy, with a summons for surrender
Having intrenched ourselves in Fort Reso-
luton during the night, we couldn't sec
it." We whistled to keep our courage up,
and waited for the onset. 1t came. Cyan
kee Doodle" and 9Hail Columbia" were
spectators of the battle, and told mo after
it was over that Obstinacy and Habit
fought tilt hand to hand, and Habit got
TIE worst of it.
Third Day.-The charges of the enemy
lacked their usual impetuosity. Habit
mortally wounded. Obstinacy says he can
hold out indefinitely. Good general
brave as mule.
Fourth Day.-"Veni, vidi, Uicr'! "WO
have met the enemy and he is ours."--
These classic dispatches are Just in. Appe-
tite escaped in the melee and turks in am
bush. Habit is horS du combat. Tobacco
is prisoner, sir, here in my pocket, and
his forces are at my mercy.
"Now, Mr.. Conservative, you see the
confusion consequent upon so fearful a
contest, and appeal to you, sir, as a
friend-tell me what to do! !"
"Well, my dear Sir Radical, congratu-
late you on your great success. You have
achieved notable triumph over Habit and
Appetite, but sir, violent changes are bad
for the constitution-vcry bad, sir, indeed.
Have cigar, old fellow, have cigar, and
here, sir, take pinch of snuff"

Poetry.
AT THE LAST.


Tho stream Ia calmest when IL nears the tide,
And flowers the sweetest at the eventide,
And birds most musical at close Of day,
And saints diynsst when they pass away.
Morning Is lovely, but a holler charm
Lies folded close in evenings robes of balm;
And weary man must ever love her best,
For morning calls to toll, but night to rest.
She comes from heaven, aud on her wings doth bear
holy fragrance, like the breath Of prayer;
Footsteps Of angels follow in her trace
To shut the weary eye Of day In peace.
All things are hushed before her as she throws
Der earth and sea her mantle Of repose.
There is a calm, beauty, and power,
That Morning knows not, In the Evening hour.
"Until the Evening" we must weep and toll,
Plow lifes stern furrow, dig the weedy soil;
Tread with sad feet the rough and thorny way,
And bear the heat and burden OF the day.
OH when our sun is setting, may we glide,
Like Summer evening, down tho golden tidei
And leave behind u.s. pass away,
Sweet, starry twilight round our sleeping clay.

Must his command obey.

steamer San Salvador arrived at quar-

for the 7th Regulars. There were 28
