A New Scourge-vvhole Fields OF

We learn from reliable sources that the
farmers OF many of the western counties are
much troubled with pigeons in fact, these

Hooks have made their appearance, the air in
many places being usually darkened; and,
having migrated a long distance from the
south, they are very voracious. These hocks
alight upon the fields of new sown grain.
and rolling over and over like the waves of
the sea, pick up every kernel of grain in
sight. 1t is impossible to drive them away

farmer residing two miles east of Indepen-
dence had sown three acres of wheat, and
was preparing to harrow it in, when the
pigeons made their appearance and gobbled
up every Kernel before he could get it cover
ed. Some fields containing forty acres were
absolutely covered with pigeons, and al
though the sportsmen waged an incessant
warfare against them, and Killed great num-
oers, their places were soon supplied with
others: Hunting pigeons has lost the charm
OF novelty, and the main question is how to
save the grain. With the present high price
OF seed wheat, and its scarcity, this becomes
question of serious consideration

sowed second time, and we hear of some
farmers who are doing it the third time.

Midnight Scene ina Gen. Grants
Camp.

The battle of Arbela was the eloouence
OF daring on the part of the young Ma
cedonian King. That of Thermopyl@ was
the eloquencc of patriotism on the part of
Leonidas and his Helots. The battle of
Austerlitz was the eloquence of bravery
on the part of young Corsica. The scene
OF Valley Forge was the eloquence of faith
ON the part of Washington. The scene
bined all these elements, and added the
eloquence of silence.
The well known result of that fierce
conflict was adverse to the army of the
United States. Gen. Lee had flung one
wing of his army between our forces and
the base of their supplies, which would
require another battle to regain theni.-
Each division and corps commander knew
this sad condition OF affairs. They were
all summoned TO council of war, to be
the saddest steps ever taken by that band
of devoted hearts. Fifteen thousand brave
soldiers, dead or dying, or wounded, were
lying on the field hard by.
One after another entered and after ma
king noiseless salute silently took their
seats. Generals Schofield Meade, Burn
side, Sickles, Howard, and others, l be-
lievc were there. Not word was spo-
ken. A full half hour thus passed by.
Their emotions were too deep for utter
ance. Hopes of millions hung oil the de-
cision of that council
AT length General Grant asked each one
in succession if they had any advice to
protfer. Each one answered with sad
monosyllable, no.
The commander then wrote few lines.
and handed the slip to General Meade, and
he retired. This was repeated until all
were gone, and the General was left alone.
One of the staff of division commander
who was sick, was the last to retire, and he
is authority for the above.
All we're ignorant of each others order.
They felt assured that retreat had been
directed. Any other alternative would
have been believed to be madness Had
they known that the order had been given
to advance, instant and universal mutiny
would have been raised That eloquent
silence for which he has ever been noted,
was the key to his success there.
The next morning each corps moved, and
General Lee, the instant he perceived it, with
vehemence exclaimed "Our enemy have
leader at last, and our cause is lost |" He
had bid his officers the night before to let
their soldiers sleep long. But now he saw
the army he thought utterly defeated mov-
ing round between him and the base of his
supplies.
He fastened to begin retracing his course,
and confessed to an artillery officer of the
Confederate army that the doom of their
cause was sealed

to his cost. He is very sensitive to attack.
especially since he has been suffering from
his present nervous disorder, and his late
alteration with Herr Won Munchausen: the
Hanoverian grand deputy, is said to have

both armies ....
Into ward of the whitewashed walls, u..'
Where the dead and the dying lay ..r
Wounded by bayonets, shells and balls
Somebody darling was borne one day.
Somebody's darling so young and so brave,
Wearing still on his pale, sweet face. t.
Soon to be hid by the dust of the grave,
The lingering light of his boyhood grace.
Matted and damp are the curls of gold
Kissing the snow Of that fair young brow,
Fair are the lips of delicate mould
Somebody's darling is dying now.
Back from the beautiful, blue vened face,
Brush every wandering, silken thread
Gross his hands as a sign Of grace
Somebody's darling is still and dead.
Kiss him once for Somebody's sake,
Mnrmur prayer soft and low,
One bright curl from the cluster take
They were somebody's pride, you know.
Somebody's hand hath rested there;
Was it a mother g soft and white?
And have the lips of a sister fair
Been baptized in those waves Of light?
God knows best. He was somebody's love
Somebody's heart enshrined him there;
Somebody waited his name above.
Night and morn on the wings of prayer
Somebody wept when he marched away
Looking so handsome, brave and grand;
Somebody's kiss on his forehead lay; ~
Somebody clung to his parting hand.
Somebody's watching and waiting for him,
Yearning to hold him again to her heart;
There he lies-wth the blue eyes dim,
And smiling, child like lips apart.
Tenderly bury the fair young dead,
Pausing to drop on his grave a tear;
Grave on the wooden slab at his head
"Someboay's darling lies hurled here"
