West. Forrest and Stoneman, Morgan
and Grierson, Moseby and Fitzpatrick
were his imitators. He inaugurated the
grand raid which taught Sheridan the no
thingness of distance, and emboldcncd
Sherman to tear the continent like a map,
The fervid imagination of the South
ern people, demonstrated in feats Of ro-
nance, like Stuart's, made them, during
the war, the great suggestive captains
They built the first ironclad, made the
first of the great raids, and, under Stone
wall jackson, executed the earliest of the
great infantry marches. But the colder
sscaptabiIity of the North developed eve
ry hint from the South into perfect svs
tem The experiment of the Merrimac
has grown to the Dictator, the Dunder
berg and the Ironside The engineering
assiduity of Beauregard, initiated by the
North, has marked the camps Of our ar
mics, as if the protecting mountains had
followed our columns. But it may be
doubted that any division commander has
yet arisen to rival the infantry genius of
Jackson.
AS Lee was master of maneuvre, Jack
son was the great captain Of aggressive
warfare. He combined the cunning and
the boldness of Napoleon. TO cover his
great movement by the flank in 1852 he
did not hesitate to fight Pope's whole ar
my with adivision, and the celebrity Of his
march up the Shenandoah, to appear again
on the field Of Bull Run, was only equal
led by the energy Of his attack. He mo
we'd infantry with the speed Of horse, and
having hurled three commanders back
from the Old Dominion died before the
lustre of it's arms had diminished in that
flush Of victory when rebellion had assu-
med. indeed, the proportions of nation.
He was the most republican of rebels,
stern and simple as any Roundhead, and
this is why we hold his memory greener
than that of his companions, whose de-
fectiOn to the Union was augmented by
their treason to popular institutions.
There were other personages identified
with this grand historical defence, but
these are the great statures-Davis, Lee,
Jackson, Stuart, Beauregard.

Put Your Shoulder to the Wheel.

There is voice that speaks us,
If we own no craven heart,
As we pass along life's pathway,
Taking ourappointed path;
And it bids us bear our burden.
Heavy though it seem and feel,
And with strong and hopeful vigor, ~
Put your shoulder to the wheel.
What though clouds are darkening DER us,
They but hide tranquil sky; .l q
Or should storm drops fall around us,
Soon the sunshine hides them dry.
Never doubt, never faint and falter,
Heart be stout and true as steel;
Fortune smiles on brave endeavor--
Put your shoulder to the wheel.
Folded hands will never aid us
To uplift the load OF care
"Up and stirring" be your mOtto
Meek to suffer, strong to bear.
IT'S no chance that guides our footsteps,
Or our destiny can seal;
With a will, then. strong and steady,
Put your shoulder to the wheel.
Men of worth have conned the lesson,
Men of might have tried its truth,
And many lips have breathed its maxim
In the listening ear of youth; m
And be sure, throughout lifes journey,
Many wounded hearts would heal,
If we all are friends and brothers,
Put your shoulder to the wheel.

MISCELLANY.
A Northern Estimate Of the Confederate
H e."s Leaders.

We extract the following from a long
review Of the late war in the New York
Citizen, q Republican paper, edited by Col.
Halpine, late Of the United States army
Let those loyal gentlemen, disciples of
Mr.. Abbott, who worship the character oil
Bonaparte, make some consistent hom-
age to the brilliant directory Of Jefferson
Davis. Both were men of destiny, and
the personnel Of the survivor is, by far,
the nobler. Of the fallen angels whose
dark plumage swept from our Senate
halls, he made the most courtly adieu.
OF all the traitors he was most entirely
in earnest OF all decision he was the
sagest, the promptest and the most endu-
ring. He, only, of the conspirators, felt
that his quarrel with the Union was irrec-
oncilable, and dby his capital till the
last, and has never yet advised submis-
sion. His captivity has been belittled by
none Of Bonaparte's querulousness.
Blind and grey and wasted, his dominions
are narrowed to casemate, while the
Republic be would overthrow reaches to
the silent oceans.
In Robert Lee the same austere Prov
dence, to purify our republicanism, shat
tered our faith in traditional respectable
ity. The heir Of Washington went with
the rest of the new chivalry, and with
ten times the talent of that great Fabius,
crushed the armies Of our own lesser re
spectabilities, till he met in Grant a man
without pedigree. He was the equal Of
Wellington in maneuvering great bodies
Of troops upon small interior forces.
The Duke, at Waterloo, fought his whole
army upon mile and quarter arc but
Lee, at Cold Harbor, for five days pre-
sented solid line Of battle wherever we
sought for him, till his whole force seem
ed mancuyered by the wink of his eve and
every salient that we touched was corps.
While the Notifications of Richmond
stand, his name shall evoke admiration.
The art Of war is unacquaintcd with any
defense 50 admirable Splendid as were
the triumphs Of his engineering, the vic
tories Of his infantry were his best mon
uments. But over the glory Of his tai
ent fell shadow as eternal as his memo
ry-the frown Of resolute Democracy,
whose sacrifice was longer than his art.

Have lightly seen.

Tell of heart that's free from guile:-
Nae unco thoughts, nor passions vile,
Can live the whffc. Aeas.

Her thrilling lips Loves rosy hue;
And her form ofgrace to thenraptured view
Tells you 'tis-SUE.
