Scattered on Southern fields they lie.
Where iropic breezes gently sigh;
Beneath the shade OF orange tree,
Upon the banks of Olustee;
Or on the 'ssndy drifts which pile
The barren waste of Morris Isle;
Buried in melancholy lines
Along the swanps OF Seven Pines;
And hundreds more halfsburicd still
On slopes of Gaines and Malvern Hin:
Lying beneath the waving grain
On broad Manassas war scared plain;
Scattered 'mong gloomy WOODS, that dress
The lone haunts Of the Wilderness;
Meath Carolina's sobbing pihes.
Or where they fell in serried lines
On Vicksburs's bloody heights. or where
Brave Thonlxs turned the wave of war;
Adown the Mfssissippis coast,
Among the winding bayous lost,
Or with nations tears inferred
In thy great tomb, oh. Gettysburg
hest, ye brave mon, where er ye lie,
Your valor brought US victory;
Green be the sod above your graves.
Der which your iag in triumph waves;
Green be your memory which lives
With all the brightness valor gives;
Hsllowed by nations saved from wreck,
With pioas honor your graves shall deck.
Hsllowed your virtues live again,

Though In uncoffined graves ye lie,

A Tempest of Bugs at Red Wing.

The straneest phenomenal ever witness
ed In this section, has astonished and Ter
rIfied travellers on the river, for tie past
few nights, at Red Wing, MINI. 1t con
sisted OF shower, amounting almost to
a tempest, of flies and bugs What the
exact species or name of the bugs is, we
are not aware. They are called by a va
rlety of names. by the liver men, but are
more generally known as 'Momon Flies. ;
We learn from residents of Red Wing
that they are not at all troublesome
except upon the arrival Of boats at night
Then they seem to be attracted by the
lights, and appear in perfect swarms.
We came down the river on Saturday
night last, and witnessed the show
Before the boat landed all the doors were
shut and the lights turned down, but as
soon as the torch used in landing was
lighted, the bugs swarmed down upon the
boat IN perfect clouds. So dense was the
swarm that the torch was almost instantly
and the men stihed by the
mass. The decks of the boat
and barges was covered with great heaps
OF the bugs. Bushels Of them were
swept off into the river. The officers of
the boat informed US that on their up trip
the bugs made their first appearance, and
literally took possession of the cabins.
The strangest feature Of this singular
is the fact that nothing is
seen Of the bugs, except upon the arrival
OF boats, and that no trouble is expert
enced from them Immediately after leav-
ing Red Wing.-La Crosse Leader.

PROFESSOR HUXLEY.
Some Account of Him-HOW he Extin-
guished an Oleagin0us Bishop.
fFrom AnnIeton,s Journal

Mr.. Huxley is quiet, deliberate, fluent,
and we might almost say colloquial. To
these traits it may be added that, socially,
he is genial, racy and brilliant 1t is very
well known that Professor Huxley is
leading exponent of the views of Mr..
Darwin. An incident relating to his
early companionship of these doctrines
though often related, is characteristic
and will bear repeating. just after the
.'Origin of Species was first published,
the subject came up at the Oxford meet
ing Of the British Association, in which
Samuee Wilberforce, the Bishop of Ok
ford, participated. The Bishop is a man
of elegant, oleaginous manners, who has
acquired the s06rlqnet of 'Soapy Sam,
which he wears very goodnaturedly. A
lady once asked him how he came by this
curious title, to which he neatly replied
that 1T must be because | so often get
into hot water, and always come out with
clean hands" The Bishop closed a
sarcastic speech against the Darwinians,
by turning to Professor Huxley, their
leading representative, and bandly ask
ing, In the presence of the large audience,
us the learned gentleman really willing
to have It go forth to the word that he
believes himself to be descended from
monkey ?" Professor Huxley rose and
replied In his quiet manner, 1t seems
to me that the learned bishop hardly
appreciates our position and duty as men
of science. We are not here to inquire
what we would prefer, but what is true.
The progress Of science from the begin
ming has been conflict with old prejud-
ices. The true origin of man is not
question of likes or dislikes, to be settled
BY consulting the feelings, but it is a
question of evidence, to be settled by
strict scientific investigation. But, as
the learned Bishop is curious to know
my state of feeling upon the subject, [
have no hesitation il saying that, were
it matter of choice with me (which
clearly it is mott whether [ should be de-
soended from respectable monkey, or
from the Bishop of the English Church,
who can put his brain to no better use
than to ridicule science and misrepresent
It's cultivators, l acoutd catainly choose
the monkeYr The storm of applause
which followed showed that the hit was
appreciated, and Huxley was afterward
known as ''the man who had extinguish-
ed 'Soapy Sam. -

TIE INCOME TAX.-The income tax is
regarded with great horror by many who
care not 70 think Of the justice of It. Ne
grant 1t needs amendment. modification
Improvement; but the principle of the
lax is just, it was established in England
300 years ago. Let US take the case OF
he largest income return in the United
States-A. L. Stewart, whose income was
over S3,000,000 in 1868, aud on this ne
paid SI50,0 600. This is very large tax
but then, he had very large income.
Now repeal the income tax, and tell US
what A. L. Stewart pays OF taxes to the
support Of the government which pro-
tects our life and property If he has
houses and stores, the tenants pay the
taxes, He buys goods at home, and i'm
ports them from abroad. The purchas-
ers pay him the cost Of the goods, all
charges for freight, insurance, carriage,
etc, and aproft besides. But when Mr..
Stewart ascertains how much he has re-
ceived during the year over and above all
taxes expenses, etc., the government
requires of him FIVE per cent. on his
profits, and he pays it. Otherwise he
would not pay more to the government
than some of his servants. Let US amend
IL inc ome tax law, but not repeal it
A. L. Post.

the Governorship says: There is one
name mentioned as candidate that is
gaining popular favor, and that is Hon.
A. NJ. Thompson. of GAINESVILLE. We be-
lleve him to be the man for the emergen-
cy. His administration as Speaker OF the
Assembly for the past two terms, his
great natural ability. his demeanor as a
working man, have won for him, even Ip
so short space of time, host of warm
friends. \ man of unblemished charac-
ter, friend to the taxpayer, and gener-
Gus to fault, we believe he will make a
Governor that will be source o. gratifi-

A PROPHECY. Miss Gadsey, the won
derful sleeping woman, who died recently
in one of the Southern States after ex-
listing in somnolent condition almost
continuously for fourteen years, just be-
fore her death, prophesied that the great
eclipse Of to-day was the beginning of
the end; that the sun would never again
shine as brightly as before, and that the
great day Of destruction would soon fol-
low.
