The soldiers in this subdstrct are therefore, as
sured that it is plain duty TO rebuke IN becoming

graceful acts and nsubOrdnatlon and also TO abstain

The Late Chas. G. Halpin.
Hrs INTIMATE RELATIONS WITH BEN
NETT, GREELEY, AND GENERAL Hun
TER.

The Citizen, in an elaborate obituary
of its editor, Gen. G. g.. Halpine, has
the following:
Charles G. Halpine, from his earliest
youth, possessed power of fascination
WAS surrounded vito an atmosphere OF
electrical sympathy, which it WAS i'm
possible for man or woman TO resist !.
He won his way to every heart without
III effort. Kind to others; open and
frank, he recognized honesty and open
ess in others. There were three men
with whom, be was more closely sllied
than with any other individuals outside
his immediate family. These were James
Gordon Bennett, Horace CIR eley aud
Major General David Hunter. The FIRST
had done him a thousand favors when
he WAS struggling Ia make name and
a career; he repaid them with the mos,
devoted gratitude. n" man could utter
n word against Mr.. Benuett in the pres
euce Of Charles g. Halpne. with lut n
robuke; no occasion would he let pass
when he could IN sny degree repay the
obligations he was under without avail
ing himself Of it. The intercourse OF
these two men is most credible To both,
AMI there are certain facts of ii which
must vet be- written to disabuse the pub
lie Of unjust prejudice NJ. Bennett,
with his clear Judgment was the first L.
recognize the rising genius. and having
recognized. he generously strove to de-
veop and foster il.
Towards Me-. Greeley, Halpine had
the yeueratlon of sou 20 n father He
almost worsbipped the true hearted, Sim
pie-minded. bur strong headed philoso-
pher, whose real charactar is just begin
ming to he appreciated by his fellow cit
izers. He spoke Of him on all occasions,
in season and out Of season, with the
strongest affection. He loved to bring
him into the bosom of his family, and
10 see his enjoyment of The pleasures OF
the little ones he delighted in his so
ciety, enjoyed his conversation, and
seemed dawn towards him by some
invisible bond Of sympathy. Towards
General Hunter he felt the strongest
esteem and devotion. He had been by
the side of the brave soldier under many
Trying circumstances. and had seen him
prove equsl to them oil. He had served
under him through almost the entire
war: had been with him when he faced
death hundred times, and had suffered
with him when he endured starvation.
and bowed down in respect before the
man of iron with the gentlest OF hearts;
had seen him strip the officers coat from
a coward OF sneak, as he would tear
the hide from wolf, and had seen him
melt like child at the distress of wo
man. -Four years of such companion
shiphip had created tie that death alone
could part. These three men stood first
in his heart of hearts.

- GEO. d Prentice thus pleasant
~ writes, drawing inspiration from his
own experience
Blessings on the heads of these who
send fowery presents to those whose
energies Lave been desolated by disease
Flowers impart not only fragrance ard
beauty to ones sick room, but they alb
solutely light up the gloom that langs
around il like dark curtain, and cause
cheerfulIness 10 take the place of heavi-
ness and oppression of heart. Often has
our soul felt exceedingly grateful to
those dear women who have considered
our low estate, and sent flowers, fresh
fragrant and beautiful, to cheer our in
yalidism. Could we strew their path
way through life with flowers, how ca
gerly would our hands perform the task
Had flowers no other office than to min
lister to the pleasures of the sick. that of
itself should be reason sufficient why
:hey should be cultivated. But when
we remember that they are not only an
ever pleasant joy to the eve, but are also
true and genial teachers of moral truth,
and excellence. as well as tender pron,p
tiers TO the highest as well as the most
refined sentiments, we can perceive Of
how great importance it is that the hand
and heart of woman's power is in Der
loneliness, and she ought to do every.
thing to encourage it. Her loveliness has
broken the bondage in which many a
sinful man was bound. and which has
resisted persuasion aud force through
many a year. Let her increase her
power by adding to her loneliness, and
this she will not fail to do if she gives
her heart up to the beautiful poetry of
earth.
