~ Col John 5. Mosby was arrested
in LSasbIrg on last Monday, and is held
subject 70 the orders Of Gen. Ayre, the
military commsndant az Winchester.
He is charged, we understand, with
having hanged tvs Federal soldiers in
The Valley during the war, in retaliation
for the murder Of some OF bis men. The
Richmond Examiner in referring % the
arrest, says.
When we remember that Col Mosby,
,bougHh Of that class known as Partisan
Eaneers, was d regularly commissioned
.sscsy in the service OF the Confederate
-fates. and. as such, received the parole
.warded The officers Of Gen. Lees army,
his arrest seems extraordinary and natiy
in- violation OF the terms Of the parole.
For .ome months Col. Mosby has been
quietly predicting law in Narrenton
demeaning himself Is a good and loyal
citizen Of bis section.

The Dead,


1t is strange what a change
is wrought to us in one hour
by death. The moment our
friends are gone from us what
sacredness invests us? Every
thing they ever said, or did,
seems to return to us in new
significance. A thousand things
we would fain say to them.-
Those are sad hours, when one
has passed from our door never
to return any more-and when
we 90 back to set the place in
order, the room looks lonesome
and desolate. The death of a
friend teaches things we never
knew before. The books we
once read with them-the "Old
Bible" and familiar hymn book
and some little articles of
fancy made dear to them by
some peculiar taste; they are
now dear in our eyes. We value
them not for their beauty or
worth, but for the frequency
with which we have seen them
used by our friends that are
gone. But, there are relics of
our lost ones more precious
than the books, pictures, or the
vase-let us treasure them in
our hearts, let us bind to our
hearts, the patience which they
will never need again let us
collect in our thoughts all those
cheerful and hopeful sayings,
which they threw out from time
to time as they walked with us;
and test our own daily life by
what must be their perfect es-
timate-and, as they once
walked on earth with us, let us
try to walk with them in Heav-
en-. We may learn at the graves
Of our lost ones, how to live
with the living. 1t is a fearful
thing to live 50 carelessly as
often as we do with those near
est to us, who may at one mo-
ment be gone forever. Let us
walk softly; let us forbear and
love, for; we may he talking
to-day with those whose names
may, tomorrow be numbered
with the dead Western Re
corder.

Oh! Be Not the First /!

Oh! be not the first to discover
A blot on the fame of friend
A flaw in the faith of lover,
Whose heart may prove true in the end.
We none of us know one another,
And oft into error may fall
Then let us speak well of our brother,
Or speak not about him at ALL
A smile or a sigh may awaken
Suspicion most false and undue;
And thus our belief may be shaken,
In hearts that are honest and true.
How often the bright smile Of gladness
Is worn by the friend that We meet,
To cover a soul full of sadness,
Too proud to acknowledge defeat
How often the sigh of detection,
Is heaved from the hypocrite's breast;
To parody truth and affection,
Or lull a suspicion to rest
How often the friends we hold dearest,
Their noblest emotion conceal
And bosoms the purest, sincerest,
Have secrets they cannot reveals
Leave5base minds to harbor suspicion,
And small ones to trace our defects
Let ours be a nobler ambition,
For low is the mind that suspects.
We none of us know one another,
And oft into error may fall
Then let us speak well of our brother,
Or speak not about him at all
IN o. Picayune.

BEAUTIFUL.-When the sum-
mer day of youth is slowly
wasting away into the nightfall
of age, and the shadows of the
past years grow deeper and
deeper, as life wears to a close,
it is pleasant to look back
through the vista of time upon
the joys and sorrows Of our
earlier years. If we have a
home to shelter and hearts to
rejoice with us, and friends who
have been gathered around our
firesides, then the rough places
of our wayfaring viii be worn
and smoothed away in the
twilight of life, while the bright,
sunny spots we have passed
through will grow brighter and
more beautiful. Happyindeed
are they whose intercourse with
the world has not changed the
course of their holier feelings or
broken those musical chords OF
the heart whose vibrations are
so melodious, so tender and
touching in the evening of age.

GENTLE ANNIE.-We love
that song. Its pathos steals.
over us like its associations
move. What more becomes a
lady than gentleness? It has
won many a heart-it has
checked many a hasty and
wicked resolve-it has soothed
man a torn bosom, and called
many a wanderer to the paths
of virtue. We often wonder
why women ever study to be
pert, when softness and kind
ness do so much more good /?
Why are they eyerso quick and
sharp, ever resentful and fever
Iish, ever talk with a barbed
] tongue, when their meek and
gentle manner, may conquer

Religion is the tie that
connects man with his Creator,
and holds him to his throne. If
that tie is sundered or broken,
he floats away, a worthless atom
in the universe, its popular at
fractions all gone, its destiny
thwarted, and its whole future
nothing but darkness, desola-
ton and death. A man with
no sense of religious duty is he
whom the scriptures describe
in so terse but terrific a manner
as Giving without God in the
world" Such a man is out of
his proper being, out of the
circle of all his duties, out of
the circle of all his happiness,
and away, far, far away from
all the purposes of his Creator,
