Bill tottered away to fetch his rife; but
he returned in q few moments with firm
and certain step. With his gun in his
hand, he swung himself with his right
hand over the shattered trunks, and stood
again by the side of his dear brother, who
looked affectionately in his face.

smile; q" do not tremble, and good. bye"
He offered him his hand as he turned his
face away.

many months in the wild dreams of fever,
carefully nursed by his friends. No enough
of this sOrrowful tale. His brothers blood

THE SILENT TEAR.

Who has not marked the silent tear
Course down the sorrowing check,
Betok ming sympathy, pure, sincere,
In language no tongue could speak
I've seen men muse DER n loved one dead
In a retrospective dream,
And noting the one bright tear drop she'd,
Have tenderly changed the theme.
have known man of noble soul
To fail in the high pursuit
Of good, and sink, thro' the mad ming BOWL
To the level of beast or brute;
But dceming that still the erring heart
Might with gentle words be won,
l have seen the silent tear drop start,
And-felt that my work H-7~i dom
A mother stood by the dying bed
OF her first and only child,
And gently pillowed its dropping head
With resignation mild;
And its spirit, free from guile,
Was borne to the brighter sphere,
The angel Mercy fingered awhile,
Till it marked the silent tear.
I've seen, in the crowded walks of life,
The poor beggar thrust aside
By the wealthy ones whose breasts were rife,
With naught bA naughty pride;
But mark a poor man now draws near,
And the plaintive tales retold;
Heihas naught to give, but that silent tear
Is a holier gift than gold.
Oh the silent tear transcends your gold,
In its pure and priceless worth;
As Heavens best gift that heart hold
To which it owes its birth.
And when the cares of life are DER,
My task being ended here,
One boon I'd asl-I would crave no more

Nymen's Carnival.

From April 20, 1864, when the new mar
riage regulations were first promulgated to
the freed people by the Secretary of War,
there had been recorded at Vicksburg, four
teen hundred and tifty-six marriages before
the Ist OF November. The record is requir-
ed to show the color or blood of the parties
united in marriage, and of the parents of
each of course, the color of ak persons
should be recorded for each marriage Out
OF these fourteen hundred and fifty-six mar
rlages there were one hundred and sixty six
persons who were the children Of one white
parent, and three of them were children Of
white mothers. 0ne-third of all the mar
rlages recorded so far are of parties white or
partly white on one side or the other The
general fact seems to be that the lighter
colored mulattoes are rather proud Of their
relationship. while the darker ones are
rather unwilling to own it, or are ignorant of
1t. large part of the marriages recorded
were OF those who had lived together as hus-
band and wife-perhaps for many years.
One old man, at Memphis, was married,
with several others, one morning. No soon
er was the ceremony completed, than he
turned and tenderly embraced and kissed
his now legal wife, with evident thanksgiv-
ing that she was now, in the eye of the law
and OF civilization, as she had long been in
the eye of God, his own recognized wife,
One old man, of almost three-score and ten,
was thus Joined in lawful marriage to his
venerable wife. At the conclusion of the
ceremony, when the chaplain extended his
hand with the nuptial benediction, and dis
missed them, as was the custom, in short
prayer, they both dropped on their knees to-
gether, their eyes streaming with tears of
thanktulneSs, and at the close, still kneeling,
the old man reached out both arms and hug
ged her to his heart, saying aloud: My
dear old woman, [ bless God that | can now,
for the first time, kiss my own lawful wife" !"
There seems to be tides in this matrimonial
sea. One chaplain married one hundred and
two couples in one day, which shows to what
perfection art may attain with sufficient
practice. He would be - well-to d0n in the
world, if northern notions of marriage fees
prevailed. Unhappily for the chaplains they
do not. One received silver dime for
marrying q couple. Several times the par
sons have been presented with dime postal
currency, and half dime has been given as
q marriage fee. The oldest person married
was eighty eight years old. He brought to
the altar an elderly young woman of fifty
thirty eight years younger than himself
One man Of eighty married woman of forty.
The greatest disparity of ages was forty-six
years. A mature gentleman of sixty-six
united to himself girl of twenty. She
made sure Of getting . man old enough to
be respected. Three white men married
colored women. One old slave trader mar.
ried a handsome quadroon whom he had
bought for $1,000, and had been offered
IS 900 for.

The REPUBLICAN PARTY.-For some time
past, the San Francisco Flag has strongly
urged the name of republican and the crea-
ton of a party under that distinctive title.
The name Republican is dear to us from
old associations. We are glad now to think
that we were among the first, who trained
under its banner more than ten years ago.
amid the SCOTS and .ieers of the rabble, and
we are happier still to have lived to see its
principles honored, respected and in the
main triumphant. The Republican party
was based upon the broad ground of univer-
sal liberty. That party entertained new
ideas, believed in progress, in the principles
of Justice, in the morals politics, and that
liberty was something more than name.
whats in a name ?'' :" Republican" is
pleasant to US, but the principles of repub-
iicanism are dearer still, and we are con-
tent to labor for the Advancement of any par
ty which is imbued with the spirit of social
order and good government.-D -Doionieoitte
Messenger.
The Flag copies the above with the evi-
dent intention of proving by it that the
Flags policy of organizing third party, to
be known as the Republican, is endorsed by
one Union Journal in the State. We cannot
see it as the Flag sees it. The last sentence
in the paragraph reads just as the Flag
should write, and Just as every true Union
journal throughout the land does write.

France, caused by the armed intervention of the
latter power, was ZIG 900, 900 francs This great
increase, butt is not all for on looking back to
