The Vse Of SaXon Words.

1t is well known that the English language
has received many words of Latin origin, as
the result of the Norman conquest in 1866,
and through the cultivation Of the Latin
classics. What our language would have
been without the use Of words thus introduc-
ed, is a curious problem. Dean Trench sug-
gests, that conhning ourselves to the use oil
pure Saxon words, we might have said SaHa-
iraste, for desert; blood-bath, for massacre :;
siH-7ood, for deluge; sca-rojJcr for pirate :
Irater-tright. for hydrophobia st0lr-hoHness'
for hypocrisy; g0id-hoard, for treasurer :
,rsH-riAHgness, Tor beneyolence; i0ldeadI-
ness, for immortality; lHteiljie. for lnetiabie :
gregf-doi1gjy, for magnifcently; s1ur-doHgh,
for leayen; m0WaingncsS. for Ignorance :
oye-bie, for iascinate; eRg1ps. for embrace
,Gr-Shrtf, for auricular confession dJpper.
for baptist, &c.
Those familiar with the German language
viii notice that the Saxon clements, having
had but little outside influence to prevent
their natural expansion in that language.
have taken nearly the form suggested above
Thus we have IHgsr-hGf. for thimblc room
man, for carpenter; cffier. for tailor; tour
word tailor means a cutter. from the French
taller, 10 cut y cloth dc0iF, for draper; foot
folk, for infantry: riders, for cavalry &c
And it Is another fact noticeable in this con
ncction, that there are a large class Of words
in which we do now use Saxon compounds,
instead of borrowed words that are to COM
mon ears purely conventional and meaning
less We give few among the many mu-
sic-teacher, book-biuder, writing g-desk, watch

Leopold of fAnhalt-Dessau. The bayonet was
proceeded by various contrivances. such as an
AK attached to the barrel, then dagger, &C.,
stuck into the latter. But as this was an i'm
pediment to firing, ring was added, about
1891, to the bayonet, whereby the blade, in
stead of covering the muzzle, came to be flush
with its rim This, however, was still in
convenient for loading, so at length the bay
onet was provided with neck, as it now Is.
This was about 1905. Cartridge boxes were
also introduced; at first they were very
small, but the Germans soon enlarged them
so as to contain forty of them. Neyerthe-
less, for long time after, printing was done
with the powder horn, until at length the
plan of using some Of the powder of the cart
ridge was hit upon. DR.. Meynert's work
may now be considered the completest history
of military Improvements that has as yet
appeared.

NUMBER THIRTY-FIVE.
Patriotic Views Of Gen. Longsirest.

The Washington correspondent of the Troy
Times has had an interview with Gen Long
street and gives the following interesting account
thereof
He was exceedingly cordial and communicl-
tive, full of hope for the future, and glowingy
sanguine that the South, purified from the blight
of human slavery and recognizing the equd
rights of all men, would grow, and flourish, ami
blossom all over, like unto a second land Of pro-
mise.
" General - said l, what more peril have
these obstructonists at the South undergone, what
more suffering have they endured that they should
revile you for the frank renewal of your 10y
atty to the government n'
d" None" he exclaimed.
Z" Then why not follow your example" " | in
quired, " and give US the fruit for which We
Fought
''Simply," said he, because you Of the North
Il rather mean your administration-made a
wrong start when the war ended II vigorous
means Of reconstruction had been put in force
when the Confederate armies surrendered, there
would be no obstructi0nists now. Il was the
dallying policy Of Andrew johnson, tolerated too
long by your people, that fed the spirit Of the
South with false hope of recovering the supre-
macy they had lost, and while these false hopes
prevailed, it required no small amount Of mo
ral courage to take the stand that ] did Up TO
the Sd of last November this same delusiOn ex-
listed, aud had Seymour and Blair been elected,
good-by to peace and reconstruction at the South.

mass Of the Southern people secretly rejoice at
Grants election | myself am growing IN favor
with them every day, which is an excellent sign,
and but for the Internal tyranny Of politicians,
who will hold on as long as "a breath Of p0pUlari-

pleasant recollection. 81 we dinel together We

8. Grant to my mind, is the bean ideal of a sol

might lay it down as a rule that a soldier dete>ts
long sentences of rhetaric-he prefers q short,
uim5le mode Of expression, and likes a man Of
general information who Is not bore. Grant
has not read very extensively, but il is amazing
how clear and precise he Is ON every subject. His

The Bells Of shandon.
With fond affection
And recollection

With fond affection
And recollection
think upon those Shandon bells
Whose sounds so wild would
In the days of childhood
Thus fling around me their magic spells
'Tis thus ponder
Where'er wander,
And grow the fonder, sweet Cork, of thee,
With thy bells of Shandon
That sound so grand, on
The pleasant waters Of the river Lee
I've heard bells Ginning
Full many a cline in,
Tolllng sublime in cathedral shrine
While at glib rate
Brass tongues would vibrate
But all their music spoke nought ike thine.
For mem'ry dwelling
On each proud swelling,
OF the belfry knelling its bold notes free,
Made the bells Of Shandon
Sound far more grand, on
The pleasant waters Of the river Lee.
I've heard bells tolling
Old d" Abrams Mole'' in.
Their thunder rolling from the Vatican;
And cymbals glorious,
In the gorgeous turrets Of old Notre Dame
But thy sounds were sweeter
Than the dome Of Peter
Filings Ger the Tiber, pealing solemnly;
o, the bells Of Shandon
Sound far IOre grand, on
The pleasant waters Of the river Lee.
There a bell in Moscow.
While on tower and kiosko
In st. Sophia the Turkman gets,
And loud in air
Calls men to prayer
From the tapering summit oftallminarets;
Such empty phantom,
freely grant them,
But there's an anthem more dear to me
'Iis the bells Of Shand0n
That sound So grand, on
The pleasant waters Of the river Lee.

involving no important point, excited much
sport and no little attention. lady was mar
RED there about four years ago and had a lash
ionable welding. The services Of haIr-dresser
were required and seem to have been put forth
to an unusual degree, as the bill rendered was
S34 80. The brides father became iusolvent
and could not pay, whereupon the artist in hair
smell the lady's husband All the hair-dressers
in the city were called upon by the plaintiff to
prove that the bill was a just one; the defend
ants counsel went through the form Of cross-ex-
animation and nothing was left untried to prove
the strict justice of the claim; but when the
plaintiff had closed his case the defendant sim
ply introduced testimony to show that the lady
was under age at the time of her marriage, and
of course incapable of contracting debt. This
Immediately settled the case in favor Of the de-
fendant 4 neater example of knocking the un-
derpinning from the enemy one does not often

Passing a neat little martin box Of house
last evening, we happened to see a man waiting
at the door tor admittance. At the instant,
green blind above Just opened little way, and
by the gas-light, We caught glimpse Of a pair
Of brilliant eyes, and n hutter Of something
white. and a bird-toned voice softly said, who's
there 80 . It's me-" was the brief response.
The eyes and futter disappeared from the win
dow, like stars in a cloud, and we almost fanced
as we passed on, We could hear the pattering Of
two little feet upon the stairs, winged with well
come.
1t was a trife; it all happened in an instant,
but it haunted us for an hour. rs me! Amid
the jar of the great city those words fell upon
the quick ear aloft, and met a glad response.

a hearts life, no doubt; the tree a vine was
clingng to; the " Defender of the Faithful" in
the best sense of the word.

half their hearts, and more than half the hope
in them, for one such recognition in this '' wide,

but on that threshold, and within those walls,
It's me and nothing more; and what more Is

THE REMAINS OF J. WILKES BooTH.-J. Wilkes
Booths remains, by strange coincidence, were
temporarily deposited on Monday night in the
stable behind Ford's Theatre, at Washington,
which he had fitted up, and where his horse was
kept until he mounted and rode away after hav-
ing assassinated President Lincoln. The stable
is now used by the undertaken who disinterred
the rerna ms. where he took them to avoid a Gu
rious crowd which had collected at his shop The
box in which Booths remains were originally
inferred was somewhat decayed, but the body
was in good state of preservation, and the
clothing was uninjured. except that a portion of
one leg of the pantalOoDs had been cut of. The
cavalry boot on his left leg was in extra good
condition, looking to be nearly new, and the
shoe on the right foot-a common hrogan-which
he procured at Dr. Mudd's house, had slit cut
down the front, but otherwise was IN good con-
dition. In consequence of want OF time there
was little examination Of the remains male at
the stable. but it was observed that the head was
not connected with the body, and that one or
two of the vertebrGe, as also the small bone Of
the leg, were missing. 1t was also observed that
the hair of the deceased was in good state Of
preservatiou-the long curly locks, looking as if
they had been subjected to the barber's hands
The remains were taken to Baltimore, where
they were placed in casket and deposited IN a
receiving vault.

TuE MusKEr.-We CLEAN the following in
teresting summary of the various changes ef-
fected in the musket from Or. Hermann
Meynert's 4" History Of the Military Art and
Organization of Armies, the third volume
of which has lust come out at Vienna. The
musketeer was. as late as 1859, provided
with a heavy wooden fork, which he had to
stick into the ground with the prongs upper
most, TO serve as a support for hls matchbox,
which he had to load with his powdcr-horn
and measure, keeping the ball meanwhile be-
tween his lips The wadding he had to get
irom bis hat. Nevertheless the wheel-lock,
provided with pyrites instead of flint. had
long been invented. but seems never to have
come into general use in armies, except for
cavalry pistols The French lock which pre-
cele- tie percussion system was invented as
carry as l54O, though it Of course received
successive Improvements. But even before

desirous Of getting spliced at once if only

lar as to whom she accepts, but nevertheless
shows that she is not yet engaged.
