A SCRAP or WAR HIsToRY-Mr Beach, formerly of the New York Sua, writing to that paper, lately, from Vicksburg, says;
 But though l am no historian, must re- peat the singular statement of business man who was in Vicksburg during all the eventful period of her history, and who speaks in a practical manner. IL is that there was orig inally no thought of defending Vicksburg that when Farragut's summons was sent, no earthworks had been raised, and not over nine hundred men could have been mustered for it's defence that the "never surrender reply to Farragut's demand was, purely and simply, bombast, and was unsupported by substance; that the delay of five or six days in Farragut's coming to take possession, (as he might have done without firing gun ] enabled the commandant to send for assist ancc, and prepare for little defence, that he might thereby gain some kind of terms and that the prolonged struggle which ensued was nothing but the result of delayed as- sault. Every hour that the defence was con tinued increased the means of defence, until at last, though at the last only, that defence became formidable.

Thoughts for Every Day.

He is rich whose income is more than his expenses.
 taziness travels so slow that poverty over takes it.
 Who gives of his superfuity does good to others. Who gives of bis necessity does good to himself.
 It is an awful thing to feel that all we pos sess is continually wasting away, and at the same time to set our hearts upon it, without enquiring after something more solid and du- rable
 It is immortality that makes life desira- ble blessing. Without this it would be but an unproftable and burthensome trifle, pre- served with anxiety and quilted with terror.
 In matters of great concern, and which must be done, there is no surer argument of a weak mind than irrcsolution-to be unde- termined where the case is so plain, and the necessity 80 urgent; to be always intending to lead a new life, but never to find time to set about it.
 The security which follows long continued prosperity is often the occasion of mems de- struction.
 If half the pains were taken by some peo- pie to perform the labors allotted to them that are taken by them to avoid them, we should hear much less said about the troubles of life, and see much more actually completed.
 If any one speak i'll Of thee, consider wheth- CT he has the truth on his side, and if so re- form myself, was the remark of an old phil osopher.
 To be thankful for what we have, and to be hopeful for what we have not, is the best and happiest way of carrying on merchandise with the court of heaven.
 Horace Mann says that "a teacher who is attempting to teach, without inspiring the pupil with desire to learn, is hammering cold iron"
 The counsels of the good cannot benefit us for the seductions of the wicked injure us without our own free consent. Our wisdom and folly are our own, and we must reaI their fruits here and hereafter
 That was good remark of Seneca, "Great is he who enjoys his earthenware as if it were plate; and not less great is the man to whom all his plate is no more than earthenware.p
 If the Spring put forth no blossoms, in the Summer there will be no beauty. and in AI- tumn no fruit. So, if youth be thrown away without any improvement, HpeT years will be contemptible, and old age miserable"

AN essayist, who evidently knows some thing of human nature, earnestly insists upon the duty of feeding the poor, before attempt says, for famished man to believe that there is Father in Heaven until he feels that he has brothers on earth. Is it surprising, then, that religious truth should find more indiffer- ence than welcome among the hungry and half nourished2 Every one knows how un- amiabie even the best fed are liable to be- come, if kept too long waiting for their meals, and how inaccessible they are at such times to appeals which, after dinner, meet most gracious responses.

TIE DULLNEss OF Without novelty or occupation dulncss will creep in everywhere, and. on the whole, the men and women who arc most free from it are those whose minds are engrossed completely in some particular pursuit or calling, and who have no room for thinking of mere pleasure. Those people, however, if not dull, are the cause of dullness in others and their society is frequently remembered with mixed senti- ments Dullness must be taken to be the common lot of mOrtals. It is some satistac- ton to feel, when it descends upon us, that it will visit all alike.
 It is some qualification to those who have to exert themselves useiulIy to know that those who can and do chose to enjoy them selves will be pursued by the Nemesis. Poets are fond of alluding to that epoch which is known among them as the morning of life, and at this vague period 1t is understood that young persons never dream of the dullness in store for them But this we do not believe. They have tasted it in some kind even at the dawn of consciousness, and will continue to tasfo t to the very end. This may be called on mother way of turning the old advice as tO the vanity of all things, the old sermon with its metaphors of Dead Sea fruit, and other rhetorical ornaments. Still the truth of it Is brought home to us with fresh force when the weather becomes distressingly warm in town. The efforts of men and women at this season to escape their destiny is so notoriously frustrated that one turns to ven erablc causes to account for the effect, if only for the satisfaction of verifying the wisdom of our ancestors. We need not, like Mir. Swifburne, Tccap:tG!ate the burdens which are the end of every mans desire. If we only confine ourselves to the burden of pleasure ! itself Co the burden of mere social pleasure we shall find that 1t is load heavy to bear at this particular ime--L0ad0a Regise.

have believed when Lee surrendered to
Grant, begging generous terms for his
army, that in few years he would dare
to arraign his magnanimous conqueror as
tyrant and oppressor. This he has
done, not directly, it is true, but by the
strongest implication, in that letter which
holds up the Government which Grant
represents as an unconstitutional despo-
tism. 1t is objectionable insolence that
the military chief Of the Rebellion should
pretend that his rights under the Con-
stitution are withheld that he endures
oppressive misrule, and that he can talk
of self government as his birthright-he
who eight years ago broke the oath he
had taken to support the Constitution of
his country, and who fought for years to
destroy the Republic he now claims an
inalienable right to govern Effrontery
could go no further than Gen. Lee has
carried it when he says that if the action
of the Southern people, in submitting to
the Government when they could no
longer resist, had been met in spirit
of frankness and cordiality' by loyal men
our national troubles would have ended.
He and his comrades, and the corrupt
leaders of the Democratic party, throw
the whole blame OF the war; and the debt,
and the miserics which have followed.
upon the North. The men who saved
liberty are accused of plotting to destroy
it, and the worst rebels in the land an
nounce themselves as the only true de-
tenders of the Republic To this have
we been brought by IA generosity without
example. Do we regret it? No. The
insolent ingratitude which repays the
of the American people
makes it the greater virtue We would
still forgive the Rebellion, but we will
