HARTFORD NEWSPAPER MEN IN THE
WARE. G. B., /" for six years one of the
editors of the Hartford, Conn, Erening
Press, in an article upon the history oi
that paper, gives the following personal
"reminiscences:
In April 1861, there came a SumpteT
Sunday and the next day there came
e call for 75,0U0 men, signed "A. Lin
eoln.' There was good deal OF excite
ment in the Press Office that morning,
and little work. Pretty soon 'Jo' spoke
out. NO ohense-that means ex.Gov.
ernor HaWley, then chief editor of the
Press.j "Boys," said he throwing down
his pen with which he had been vainIy
trying to write an editorial suitable for
the occasion-"Boys, am going to do
the fighting for this Office; you must
run the paper" And away he vent,
Captain of the first company of the first
regiment from this State. He came
home again, in good order, after Bull
Run, when the three months men were
disbsnded, and commenced a graphic
history of that memorable battle, for
the Press. Alas, it never was finished
never will be, fear. He went off again
at the head of the Seventh regiment,
and saw it out returning in 1865 with
a Major Generals stars. he did not
do all the fighting for the Press Office.
We remember Capt. Smith. of the
Twentieth, who was killed in Virginia /;
Capt. Post. Of the Twentieth killed at
Atlanta; Corporal Flower, of the Six
teenth, starved at Andersonville, and
Others of the employees, who came safely
home again.

Strong as the power. whose strange control
Impels the torrents force;
Directs the needle to the pole,
And bids the waves Of ocean roll
In their appointed course;
So poWerful are the ties that bind
The scenes Of childhood to the mind;
So firmly to the heart adhears
The memory Of departed years.
Whence is this passion in the breast?
That when the past We view,
And think on pleasures, once possessed.
In Z Faney's fair est colors dressed.
Those pleasures We renew
And why do Memory's pains impart
A pleasing sadness to the hearth
What potent cha rm to all endears
The days Of our departed years?
True-mauy rosebud. blooming gay.
Life's opening path adorns;
But all who tried that path will say,
That mid the flowers which streW its way
Are cares eorrodinE thorns,
Yet still the bosom will retain
Affection ev'n for hours Of pain;
AMI we can smile. though bathed in tears,
At memory of departed years.
'Tis distance. our bswiIdered gaEe
On former scene beguiles.
And Menory,s charm the eye betraysi
For while enjoyments it displays
And robes the past IN smiles.
Its hattering mirror proves untrue.
Conceals the sorrOE from our view,
And hides the griefs, the doubts and fears.
That darkened our departed yearsl
Time, when our own, We oft despise-
When gone. its loss deplore;
Nor the feeting moment flies,
Do mOrtals le arm to prize,
When 1t returns no more.
For this an anxious look We cast,
With fond regard on hours long past
For this the feeling heart reveres
The memory OF departed years

THREE GOLDEN RULES. Industry,
honesty and economy, are three prin-
ciples which. if strictly adhered to by
any young man, will, sooner or later,
place him in independent circumstan
ces. They are entire strangers to the
world-fail. Industry and honesty are
two great stand-points, which give a
man a high reputation among his fel-
low creatures. They at once possess
the power of winning him friends-not
such as vanish when a cloud appears
but true, honest friends, Who are aware
of the great, invaluable service man
who possesses these qualities is to any
community. The next essential point
to advance his progress is economy. A
man may be getting a large salary, and
vet at the end of the year have nothing
left. This in itself shows the vast i'm
portance of practicing economy, if any
honorable and lucrative object Is sought
after. A spendthrift is a man with no
determination of character. He must
buy all that meets his gaze; his will to
resist is not brought into action, if in
deed such a will exists within his heart.
Therefore, he moves onward through
life until the end is exactly the same
as The beginning. This should induce
Young men to heed this advice, and if
thew do so, they will, years hence, feel
thankful that they ever read tins
article. 1t is worth trying.

ONE OF THE WORLDS WREcKs.-A cor.
respondent in Paris writes: II have
myself seen a poor old woman, long
crazed, feeble in body, going about the
streets with an old guitar which had
lost all its strings bat one, and singing
in q horribly cracked voice some
snatches of old songs of forty years
ago. She was once, they tell me, re-
nowned singer in Paris, and sung more
than once before old King Charles X.
in the Tuneries; had led dissapated
and reckless life; had lost her high
place in her profession, and with It her
reason; and now imagined herself stili
the favorite of the multitude, and the
songs she sings the delight of all who
hear them. People give her a sou here
and there, and pass pitying on; and
the moving wreck still fails to warn
the other thoughtless ones from the
rock on which it shattered"

OLD AGE WITHOUT RELIGIoS.-Alas
for him who grows old without growing
wise, and to whom the future world
does not set open her gates, when he Is
excluded by the present. The Lord
deals so graciously with US in the de-
cline of our life, that it is shame to
turn a deaf ear to the lessons which he
gives. The eye becomes dim, the
tongue falters, the feet totter. all the
senses refuse to do their Office, and
from every side resounds the call, "Set
thine house in order, for the term OF
thy pilgrimage is at hand" The play
mates Of youth, the fellow-lsborers OF
manhood, die away, and take the road
before us- Old age is like some quiet
chamber. in witch, disconnected from
the visible worlo, we can prepare ID
silence for the world that Is unseen

Nor APPRECIATED.-An exchange
says it is q wholesome fact that a man
having any truth in him, important to
be given to his generation, need not
much concern himself as to where to
speak it. How often are we sickened
with the twsddle that genius is not
appreciated. Young men part their
hair in the middle, roll down their
collars, indulge in exeesses until they
grow POLITICALLY pale, and 60 whining
among weak school misses about the
cold, cold world; and others dream
that if they had such position in such
city, such a professional mans prac-
tice, such o theatre of display, they
would make their mark. How true it
is that many a young poet, preacher
and student goes into this log. But 1t
is all a mistake. It is a shrewd old
world with which we have to deal, and
it generally knows the price of things.
An eminent divine once remarked,
and truthfully, too: There Is little
unappreciated genius, little worth
keeping that the world allows itself to
lose, and no uttered sentence worth re-
membering has ever been forgotten.-
The world may appreciate some things
too highly for a season, but in the long
run the value of ali things comes to be
.ascertained. If you have on your slate
a poem that is live vOieS, hath appre-
ciable articulate speech for the human
heart, you may print an edition of only
one copy on brown grocer's paper, and
give it to a bOot-black and go your way,
and live or die, but that true musical
thought of yours will surely get itself
repeated TO the generations to come
GO, walk up and down in the wilder
ness, and say your say and cry your
cry, and Just as sure as the truth is IN
it, it will empty the city and fetch the
people to your voice. Away with your
talk about not being appreciated
Whenever a man in any society talks
about his talents being neglected, We
may be sure that they deserve to be
neglected"

call Sam is ringleader. A few months
ago Sam was srraigned one morning be.
fore the domestic Judiciary, when the fol-
lowing dialogue occurred:
"Now, my son, you are getting to be 8
very bad boy. Why will you not mind
your parents and act more like man, and
not be getting into all sorts of scrapes ?"
Sam looking down 10 the foor quite
serious and demure, meekly replied, "Yes
sir.
The reverend parent, thinking he was
getting good hold of the boys feelings,
added: Ny son, If you don't take q diff
ferent course have very great fears. DO
you know what M great fear is, Samuel
the fear that distresses me day and
night?"
"Yes'r," said Sam, his long face almost

Sam had leave to start for school about
that time.

al DEss You FoRDor ME.n-A certain
minister had promised little boy of hi.
that he should accompany him to church
on the following Sabbath. The little fel.
low, although not quite four years old,
was still old enough 70 remember the
promise. But when church time came II
happened that he was fast asleep, and his
parents went away leaving him IN bed.
Some time after he awoke, and calling to
mind the promise given him, he hurried
down stairs only to find his father and
mother gone. Determined not to be frus-
trated in this matter, he made his way
into the street, and crossing TO where the
church stood, he entered the open door.
The minister at that moment was COM

his father, the little fellow tOddled up the
aisle in his night clothes, until directly
opposite the pulpit, when he halted and

EDITOR OHRoEICLE:-Thinking that
perhaps q few, at least os the numerous
perusers of your pages would like to know
how we are prospering in this " western
country" l will give you few thoughts
on the subject. Port Andrew is q small
bnt pleasant village, situated on the right
bank of the Wisconsin river, in the town
Of Redwood, and will, without doubt, be
an important place in a few years. We
expect before another winter rolls round
to see steamboats, plying their way to and
fro on the Wisconsin river, and ere long
will connect the Boaus operandi OF the
Mississippi river with that of the crest
LIKES, via the Wisconsin river and canal
from the head of the Wisconsin river to
La ile Michigan.
West of the villagerlies very fertile
prairie, four miles wide and ten miles
long, with the river running through the
central part. The prairie is bordered on
the right and left sides with high bluffs,
the tops and sides of which are heavily
timbered. The soil, both on the prairie
and on the Bluffs, is adapted to the raising
of grain. The only objection we have to
the land on the bluffs, is that the greater
part of it is located edgewise, so that it is
impossible TO cultivate it.
Grain is selling for higher price here
this winter than usual. Wheat sells from
one dollar and seYenty-fve cents to two
dollars per bushel, and corn from fifty
cents TO seventy-fve cents. The sleighing
has been splendid since the 4th of January.
The snow here is now eighteen inches
deep. We have had some severe cold
weather; one week, about the middle of
January, the thermometer ranged from
twenty two TO thirty-two degrees below
zero. On the morning of the 10th inst.
we had serious thought concerning the
north pole-did not know but it had bro
ken down and fallen this way-for when
we awoke We found that Jack Frost"
had been making himself very prominent
during the night, the mercury having
frozen in the mereurial thermometers. The
alcohol thermometers indicated forty-eight
degrees below zero. The schools are in
very thriving circumstances. The great
est impediment is, there are not enough
teachers to supply the schools. Teachers
wages (for teaching district schools) range
from forty to seventy dollars per month.

HOLD on DEyIL-In the early days
of the State of Indiana, the capital was
Croydon, and the annual session of the
General Assembly usually brought
together as wild a set of wags as could
be found in the State, who had to rely
on their own resources for amusement,
for there were then few theatres, con-
certs or shows.
The lovers of mischief had establish
ed mock Masonic Lodge, into which
they would entice such as were consid-
cred a little green, and take them
through a variety of ridiculous ceremo-
MES, to the infinite amusement of the
crowd.
On one of these occasions, it being
understood that a very good-natured,
athletic young man, about half sim
pleton, was to be initiated, the room
was crowded, Judge Grass lit being a
character in which he was particularly
happy consenting to act the role of
the devil; and to make the service
more impressive, had put on false
face and a large paper cap, surmount-
ed with horns, and with some chains
in his hands, placed himself behind a
screen.
After taking the candidate through
variety of ceremonies, he was brought
to a stand before a screen and told that
he had to confess all crimes he had
committed during his whole life The
candidate confessed some trivial ofencs,
and declared that he could recollect no
more.
At this the Judge made his appear
anee from behind the screen, groaning
and shaking the chains. The fright
ened candidate related some other
small matters, and then declared he
had disclosed all the crimes he had
committed. --At-this the groans of the
pretended devil became furious, the
chains ratified, and he shook his horns
in the face of the terrified candidate,
who, starting back in alarm, cried
out:
"H-hold on, Minister D-d-devil, if l
m-must t-tell you, l d-d-did k-kiss
J:j-udge G-grass's wife a c-couple of
t-times 20
The groaning ceased and the devil
disappeared.
