were brought to light in report submitted
TO the House of Representatives by one of
its committees on the 18th of February, 1868
| The report shows, as set forth in the Wash
ington Republican, that Mr.. Ashley was
charged with 'corrupt official conduct" and
only escaped by ''haw in the Indictment"
He was accused Of obtaining an Office for
"a consideration previously made, and es-
capped because it was not exactly proven that
the consideration bad been previously
agreed upon"
Ashley procured disappointment of F. NJ.
Case as Surveyor General of Colorado
Among the letters offAshley to Case, pend
ing his exertions for the appointment, is one
dated February 2, 1861, in which he dwells
on the importance of the office, saying that
lit would enable a good business man lin
meaning 'Frogue," probability to make for
tune of $4,000 or 100000 and in the
same letter he says: II want my brother as
chief clerk" sOn March IL, 1861, Ashley by
letter informs Case that be had made some
progress, and that "in order to secure the
Indiana delegatlon and Senator Lane to op-
crate on Smith, he had promised that the
sub appointments should be made Jointly,
he giving them the first choice" He asks for
letter authorizing him TO make such pledge.
He also says TO Case, in his letter, that be
wants tounite with him as a full partner in
/ falkland speculations and town sites.

THE SOLDIERS DREAM.

The following touching lines were written du.
ring the war by the Rev. J. T.. Reynolds, of South
Carolina University, in commemoration ofa beau.
tiful instance of woman's devotion, that occurred
while the University buildings, Columbia, South
Carolina, used as hospital
The soldier boy lay Oh his pallet in pain,
Where the student his vigils once kept,
And there came with each throb of his fever
parched brain,
Sweet memories of home, and he wept.
But daughter of earth, in her womanly meekness,
Drew near him her vigils to keep,
And the charm of her voice, in its ssterly sweet
Beguiled the sad soldier to Sleep
As her delicate hand bathed his n-furrowed
brow,
And her fan piled its Office of blessing.
He dreamed of the cline where the heavens en-
The good with an angels caressing.
His hard bed of straw seemed lio hit the air
An angels wings rusted above,
On his pale, sunken cheek fell tremulOus tear,
And voice whispered accents of love.
Bewildered and charmed by the beautiful vision,
Unconscious of place and of time,
He deemed himself now in the regions elysian,
And now in his cliidhood's fair cline.
Thus calming the weeper and soothing the an
gushed,
The vistant watched at his side,
And the soldier boy turned from the bed where he
languished,
With smile to the angel-and died.

we respectfully ask you TO tx the price at
which they shall be sold. Ii you deem it
best to leave the management of the lands
under this Board, we respectfully suggest
that We should be invested with power to
draw on the fund, or Oh the Public Treas
urer, for an amount sufficient to enable the
Board to employ and pay Surveyors and
other agents, to procure and submit to us
the information essential to the discreet
action of the Board.
Since q few years immediately succeed
ing the Revolution of 177G, there has been
no time when Public Schools were SO much
needed, as at the present time. The School
Districts laid off, with School Houses on
them, exist all over the State, but war
swept away the means which long years had
accumulated for paying the teachers. For
the immediate revival of these Schools,
this Board can do nothing. By the proper
management of these swamp Lands, it is
hoped another funl may be created. In
the meantime, if these Schools are to be
revived, the wisdom Of your honor able
body must devise the means Of sustaining
them.
1t believed that the juniper, Cypress
and other timber, of great value or build
ing and other purposes, in many Of these
Swamps are rapidly disappearing by tres
passes. II an active, cnterprising man
could be employed to direct his whole mind
and attention to them, and call public at
tention to the surprising fertility Of some
Of them, as demonstrated. not only by sci
entific analysis, bat by the actual cultiva-
ton Of like owalnps, reclaimed by individ-
ual enterprise, it is believed that they nigh
be sold or reclaimed, giving alternate sect
tions for draining. At present, they yield
nothing to the State, aud it is recommcnd**
ed that the Board be authorized to sell
them, with the pledge that they shall not
be subjectto State or County taxes for ten
years OF other longer period.
If it shall be your pleasurc'to put at the
control of the Board u small amount Of
means, to enable Us to have neelfnl surveys
made, and otherwise to collect and ditf'lse
accurate information, and negotiate Tor
sales, it is confidently believed that pur-
chasers for much Of the land might be
found. JONA IiiAN WONIH,

HEAVY SNow.-The recent heavy snow which WIS.,
tied this section, has led our old inhabitants to
call to mind the various periods at which snow fell
during their recollection, and, regarding one par
ticular heavy snow storm. some little discussion
recently arose, and among many of them differ
ence OF opinion regarding the date exists. We
find by reference to the files of the Journal of 1849
that this event occurred on Sunday, the 18th day
of April in that year. 1t is there stated that il
commenced showing abou+ noon, and by night the
ground was covered to the depth of four or five
inches, and that THAT remarkable and much
abused individual 'the ELDEST inhabitant was to-
tally unable to recoect any similar instance
Doubtless much to the qualification Of the inhabi
tants it did not remain over the next day. but was
melted away by the genial rays of mild and wei

From the Land We Love.
A HERO'S DAUGHTER,

She boasts no AmazOnian charms,
Mnerva's helmet never bound her;
And tho she finds delight in arms,
'Tis when her fathers are around her.
She does not aim to make mark,
Like Philiippa-as Froissart wrought her;
She is no modern Joan Dare,
Like Garibaidi's wife and daughter.
And while there meets in her young veins
Ancestral blood the patriot 's-sage's-
Whose fame rung out in trumpet strains
Goes gathering glory down the ages.
She is not proud, nor cold, nor grand,
No haughtiuess her tone eviuces;
Her heart is open as her hand
Her hand is libe1 al as a princes.
She does not awe You with her eye,
And yet its glances goes strAightway thro' you
A latent fire 20 warn you by
A steady, stellar light to WOO you.
Her smile is like the golden days,
Irradiating every feature
You catch its influence you gaze,
And own" She Is a gracious creature.
SO genial her responsive mind;
With every varying mood agreeing
You wonder how she comes to find
The very keynote Of your being.
Beneath her sparkling surface flow,
The breezy freshness, and the laughter
Wells deep and strong, and undertow
Of rare and racy wisdom, after.
Sweet tire-side graces all are hers;
The chatalane beside the bodice
Is but one token that AYERS
She is very household goddess!
Accepting with unmurmuring lips,
Wars stern decree, it's griefs-its losses;
And n0bler thro' that blood eclipse,
And stronger for its burdening crosses,
She folds no hands in languid pause
Child Of her father-truo to duty,
She weeps st heart the dear g lost cause"
Yet fills the busy hours with beauty.
Her heroism holds in view
Our peoples strife for life-the lesser,
Yet bitter one There's work to do,
And we'll she does it so-God bless her.
