THE FORTUNE

''Thank fate! l shall never be the
prey Of q fortune-hunteri'
AS Sally Beauolerc uttered these
words, she threw herself back upon
the sofa, and tossed her head with a
light laugh
"Your fortune is your face" re-
Joined her companion, as he gazed
adpoiringly on her fine features.
Sally opened her large eyes in asto-
nishment.
GA compliment from you, Tom!'
she exclaimed.
The gentleman colored. Il know
[ am not much given to pretty
speeches, but you know, Sally, that
I admire you all the same
To tell fhe truth, Tom Middleton
had, for along time, loved Miss Beau
clerc with all the strength of an ear
nest and constant nature; but he was
very diffident; he had shrunk from
making known his attachment, fear
ing Sally's ridicule, though, had he
been more confident of himself, he
might have read, long ago, secret
that Sallys eyes took little pains to
conceal. But Tom never imagined
what desirable fellow he was in him
self, and, knowing that he had no
great fortune to bestow, he did not
venture to offer his hand to the daugh-
ter of Senator Beauclerc and the
reigning belle of the city. Sally was
one of large family, it is true, and
portionless, but her fathers position
and her own beauty made Tom ina
gine her to be far removed from him.
Now, he only looked hurt, when she
thus playfully sneered at his small
compliment, and, turning away to
the window, did not catch the tender
look that stole over Sally's handsome
features.
"Well, what is the weather." she
asked, after a moment, as he still
stood gazing out into the night.
cit is beautiful moonlight, and l
think [ had better 60"
"Go! Oh, no, Toni Why this is
the last time I shall see you for ever
SO long"
'And will you care?" he asked, as
he came again to her side.
Sally blushed. "Of course 1 shall
care, Tom"
''No, Sally, tomorrow you are
going to Washington. You will be q
belle there, as you are everywhere,
and you will soon forget me-
"No, indeed, Tom!' she replied
earnestly. among all those strange
faces and people don care anything
about, [ shall long to see my old
friends"
''But not me. You won't care
much whether I am among the num-
ber or not"
eyes, SHALL
Tom was fool where women were
concerned, or he, would have known
what those words, in that soft, low
tone, meant. AS it was, wild hope
did spring up in his heart, but when
he looked again at that beautiful wo-
man, it died away. 81 am not bril-
liant enough for her." he thought;
but he plucked up sufficient courage
to put out his hand and take one OF
hers.
"You are very kind, Sally" he
said. "I shall come on to Washing
ton by and by, and then / shall know
how sincere your words are
Sally's cheeks burnt; but at that
moment the doors opened. Tom
dropped her hand, as one of the
numerous younger sisters came in,
and the golden opportunity passed
away, for they were not alone together
again that evening.
On that very same night, nearly
thousand miles away, two gentlemen

Have Faith and Struggle On.

t A swallow in the spring
Came to our granary, and meath the caves
Essayed to make nest and there did bring
Wet earth and straw aud leaves.
Day after day she toiled
With patient art, but ere her work was crowned,
Some sad mishap the tiny fabric spoiled,
And dashed it to the ground.
She found the ruin wrought,
But not cast down, forth from the place sne new
And with her mate fresh earth and grasses brough
And built her nest anew.
But scarcely had she placed
The last soft feather on its ample floor,
When wicked hand or chance again laid waste,
And wrought the ruin Ger.
But still her heart she kept,
And toiled again; and last night, hearing calls,
looked and To-! three little swallows slept
Within the earth made walls.
What truth is here, oh, man!
Hath Hope been smitten in its early dawn!
Hath cloud o'ercast thy purpose, trust, OF plan
Have FAITH, and struggle on!

The Mortality in War.

The report of the Provost Marshall General,

ing statistics concerning the military resources
of the States which lately opposed the South
in men, together with an account Of tho NUM-
befs, losses, desertons, enrollments, &C., of the
Union armies during the war. complete ex-
hibit of the resources OF the northern States in
men thus given shows that under the conscnp-
ton law of March Sd, and its amendments, the
aggregate number of 2,254,063, had been en-
rolled, not including 200, l6 soldiers actually
under arms when hostilities ceased. The cas-
ualtes in the entire military force Of the nation
during the war, as shown by the official mus
ter rolls and monthly returns, have been COM
piled with, in part, this result: Killed in actor

cord Of mortality in war, but Of course it Is mol
to be presumed that all these would now BE-

BURIED GRIEFS.

Oh! let them rest, the buried griefs:
Why should we drag them to the day?
They lived their hour of storm and shower;
They lived and died and passed away.
Oh! let them rest-their graves are green;
New life shall rise above the mold;
The dews shall weep, the blossoms peep,
The flowers of sympathy unfold.
So. on the solitary moor,
The soldiers graves are bright with flowers
The wild thyme blooms, and sweet perfumes
Attract the roamers Of the bowers.
There stays the bee to gather sweets,
And give his booming trumpet rest;
There waves the heath its purple wreath,
Aad there the linnct builds her nest
So let them rest--the buried griefs-
The place is holy where they lie;
On life's cold waste their graves are placed,
The flowers look upward to the sky.
