A letter from Louisiana says the irccdmcn
realize their obligations. They have ceased to
hope for the donation of land aud mules
They have ceased to apprehond any attempt to
reduce them again to bondage. They labor
with more regularity, and although the pro
duct of their labor is not so great as formerly,
it can be relied OH as u fixed quantity.

Death chooses his own lime; till that IS worn,
All evils may be borne.

Each nerve recoiling from the cruel steel. =,

Yet to our sense the bitter pangs reveal
That still, although the trembling flesh be torn,

We see sorrow rising in our way,
And try to 1y from the approaching iii,
We seek some small escape-we weep and pray
But when the blow falls, then our hearts are still
Not that the pain is of its sharpness shorn-
But think it can be borne.
We wind our life about another life
We hold it closer, dearer than our own
Anon it faints and falls in deadly strife,
Leaving US stunned, and stricken, and alone;
But ali we do not die with those mourn
This, ALSO can be borne.
Behold, we live through all thngs-famine, thirst,

The gossps of certain fashionable part Of orr city

the gentlemen referred to to Virginia from the
far South at the call of bis country early in the late
unfortunate struggle for liberty. He was not actually
in the field but did good service for the Confederaey
in more limited sphere He was stationed in Rich

and of stylish demeanor, soon became popular with

PANNIER AND THE GRECIAN Bend" John Paul in
late letter from Saratoga, thus discourseth:
The sylph-like maiden of the present season is
humpted like camel, and not altogether unlike a
whale.
Panther, you must know, is French for anything
that sticks ont. Steel whaebone and stufing enter
into its composition. Regular as the evening sets in,
the curious and medtave guests seat themselves in
position to view the pannier-ama.
Indeed, there is much to see and considerable to
learn Grecan bend first attracts attention. This is
achieved by hosting the shoulders into the ear throw
ing the chin upward the chest forward and the trunk
backward and dangling the little hands from the waist
baud like kangaroos short forepaws. 1t is rumored
that species of martingae to bring about the
most stylish Grecian while others absolutely hold that
sticking plaster is used to maintain the unnatural posi-
ton. Practiced in the wds it would be bad enough !;
but 7" oh it is ptitu near whole city full"
Why do not the clergy, who have so earnestly
preached against the :" Black Crook, take the Grecian
bend in hand.

ailng when they came to the Springs, showed symp-
toms Of the Greeian after their arrival, and Sc
cured it chroneay before leaving.

raj effect Of the waters. To tell the truth I've some
times felt that way myself, but generally took pep

The Early Life of General Grant

The Ledger contains the first two O

eral Grant, describing the early life q
the General. 1t gives at the same tim,
/ portraits of the father and mother o
the General, which aro unusually faith
fnl. Grant, 1t seems, was from a yer,
early age passionatcly fond OF horses
1.-THE leading passion of Ulyssus, al.
most from the time he could go alone
was for horses. The first time he ever
drove horse alone he was seven and
half years old. I had gone away from
home, to Ripley, twelve miles off.
went in the morning and did not get
back until night. Iowned at the time
three-year-old colt, which had been
ridden under the saddle to carry the
mail but had never had n collar on. -
While was gone Ulyssus got the col,
and put n collar and harness on him.
and hitchcd him up to sled Then put
"A single line on hin and drove off. and
loaded up the sled with brush and came
back again. He kept at 1t, hauling sue
ccssive loads all day, and when came
home ut night nc had pile of brush a.
big rs cabin.
He used to harness horses when he
had to get up in the marger to put the
bride and collar on, and then turn the
half bushel overan stand on 1t to throw
the harness on.
At eight and half years of age he
had become n regular driver and he
used to work my team all day, day after
day hauling wood. There would be n
man in the woods to load and another
at the house to unload, but Ulysses
would drive the team.
"At about ten years Of age he used to
drive apairof horses alone, from George
town, where We lived, forty miles, to
Cincinnati, and bring back load of
passengers.
"He always broke his own horses. /
never knew horse to balk with him
He used to get one colt perfectly broken
and then put another by the side of him.
He had most wonderful faculty for
breaking horses to pace; it became
known i'm the neighborhood, and rco-
pie used to apply to him to break their
horses to pace; but he had an idea that
it was degrading and would never un-
dertakc it

promising to repeat the dose if he spoke

WOman's Grave.

Mortimer gives utterance to these
theugots
II can pass BY the tomb of man with
somewhat calm Indifference; but when
| survey the grave of IA female sigh in
voluntarily escapes me. With the holy
name of woman | associate every soft,
tender and delicate affection. | think
of her as the young and bashful virgin,
with eyes sparkling and checks crin-
soncd with each impassionate feeling OF
the heart; as the chaste and virtuous
matron, tired of the follies of the of the
world, and soon preparing for the grave
to which she must descend, Oh. there
is something in contemplating the char
acter of a woman raises the soul far
above the level of society.
She was born to adorn and hunanize
mankind, to soothe his cares and strew
hispath with flowers. In the hour of dis
tress she is the rock on which lie leans
for support, and when fate calls him
from existence her tears bedew his grave.
Can you look upon her tomb without
emotion. Man has always justice done
to his memory woman never. The page
of history lies open to one; but the meek
and unobtrusive eXcellencies Of the 9TH
er lie with her in the grave. In her
may have shone the genius of poet,
with the virtue of saint. She too, may
have passed along the sterile path Of ex.
istence, aud felt for others as I now feel
for her"
