WEDNESDAY. MARCH a. 1869.

The TRUE LIFE The mere lapse of
years is not life. To eat, and drink,
and sleep to be exposed to darkness
and the light to pace around in the
mill of habit, and turn the wheel of
wealth; to make reason our beok-keeper,
and turn thought into an implement of
trade-this is not life. In all this but
poor fraction of the consciousness of
humanity is awakened and the sanctities
still slumber which make it most worth
while to live. Knowledge. truth, love,
beauty, goodness, faith, alone can give
vitality to the mechanism of existence;
the laugh of mirth which vibrates
through the heart the tears that fresh
en- the dry wastes within the music
that brings childhood back !; the prayer
that calls the future near the doubt
which makes us mediate the death
that startles us with mystery the hard
ship that forces us to struggle the anx-
iety that ends in trust--are the true
nourishment of our natural being.

LIFE's HAPPIEsT PERIODS. -Kingsley
gives his evidence on this disputed
point. He says: "There is no pleasure
that I have experienced like child's
midsummer holiday-the time I mean
when two or three of us,used to go away
up the brook and take our dinners with
us, and come home at night tired, dirty,
happy and scratched beyond recog
milton, with great nosegay, three lit
tie trout, and one shoe, the other having
been used for a boat, till it had gone
down with all hands out of sounding.
How poor our Derby days, our Green
wich dinners, our evening parties,
where there are plenty of nice girls,
after that Depend upon it, a man new
er experiences such pleasures or grief
fourteen as he does before unless in
in some cases in his first love-making,
when the sensation is new to him.

The DEATH OF GEN. KEARNEY-IN-
TEREsTING REMINIsoENcE.- are in
formed by prominent lawyer of New
ark that while sojourning in Amboy one
night, he passed a pleasant hour ip com.
pany with former rebel officer, who
was attached to Stonewall Jackson's di-
vision of the Confederate army during
the war, and who related an interest
ing Renaissance of Gen. Kearney, of
which sad event he was an eyewitness.
1.-THE gallant Kearney," he said, ere
ceived his death wound from q private
under my command, and when he fell
from his horse. I fastened with many
others, to the point where he lay, not
supposing that his wound was mortal
one. just as we reached his body, how
ever, his limbs gave one convulsive quiz
yer, and then all was over. Seeing that
he was Major General, word was sent
to headquarters to that effect, and Gen.
Jackson coming to the spot Immediate
ly gave one glance at the dead officers
features, and exclaimed, "My God,
boys, do you know who you have killed?
You have shot the most gallant officer
in the United States army. This is Phil
Kearney, who lost his arm in the Mex
lean war;" He involuntarily lifted his
hat, every officer in the group follow
ing his example, and for moment q
reverential silence was observed by all
Subsequently the body of the dead
soldier was placed upon two boards, a nd
when being removed to headquarters,
was followed by Gen. jackson, Gen.
Ewell and other officers, while regi-
mental band preceded it playinga dead
march :" With the incidents connected
with the recovery of the body after
wards, our readers are quite familiar,
but we doubt whether any of them ever
read theinteresting "Reminiscences related

The Barawcll Sentinel says: "Whcncver we
have inquired OF the planters and farmers of
our country about their business for this year,
they say that they will be sure of plenty of
provisions. They arc more particular than
usual as to these crops-using more manure of
home manufacture, as well as town stuff on
them. Some Of the best Of them say that il is
better to make corn at cost of two dollars per
bushel on the farm, than to pay one dollar a
bushel in town for it. This may seem little
odd at first glance, but when the short measure
they get, the hauling, freight and outward
bound money is placed on one side for he
Northern shclcd corn. and on the other. their
cob, corn shucks, fodder, peas, vines, &C., the
fine crab grass aBa cronifvott, It appears that
there is money in it. This kind of talk from,

Few of them are SO pushed about money mat
tcrs that they are willing to risk great deal
of future comfort and happiness to make big
crop of cotton, when big crop always sells
for little price. Those who tried the big
crop plan in 1867, paid pretty dearly for it.
They learned that there was no money in it
if there was, they didn't sec it, for it went into
other peoples pockets. We are glad to learn
also that they arc bringing in finer breed of
hogs and cattle. A pig that will be large
enough for q good bacon hog at ton and twelve
months old, can be kept up AMI attended to at.
cost much less than the meat, which he will

more in the range like in other times, unless

STRANGE NUPTIALs-AN ANGRY Hus-
BAND PARTS WITH HIS WIFE AT THE Altar.
Some time since we'll known young gentle
man appeared at one of onr metropolitan
churches with very beautiful young lady,
and, invoking the services of the minister. was
Immediately united to her in marriage. The
lady appeared deeply agtatod. and there was
a stern determination visible on the countenance
of the youth-a pale angry faec-cyincing any
thing but joy in the nuptials. As soon as the
ceremony was concluded the man turned to
the lady with the remark: "I have kept my
premise "e~-yon arc married to me; but I
will never look on your face again"
There was frantic appeal in the girls
actions aud tears; she begged, implored him to
recall his words-promiscd some wild things
better left unprinted-and then sank faintins
to the floor. The man turned on his heel aud
quilted the apartment. What did it mean ?
The simple relation pf facts look like tho
coloring of romance, yet are they true in every
particular. When it is further stated that the
parties are Of high social position, have nu-
merous relations, aud that they were utterly
unattended, .he mystery will appear ::.ore
strange. Their friends have tried vainly to
reconcile the matter. An obstinate silence
greets every appeal in behalf Of the lady, aud
she, if indeed she can, refuses any explanation

AN EXCELLENT IDEA.-An exchange says:
"a meth"d employed in Germany TO keep rose
buds fresh in winter, consists in first covering
the end of the recently cut stem with wax,
aud then placing each one in closed paper
cap or conc, so thut the leaves do not touch
the paper. Tho cap is tl.cn coated with glue
70 exclud, air, dust and moisture, and when
dry it is stood up in drawer in a cool place.
When wanted for use the bud is taken out of
the cap and placed in wdtcr, after cutting of
the end, when the rose will bloom in few
hours"
