BIZ JOHN @. WHITTIER.

Men said at vespers: All is well!
In one wild night the city fell;
Fell shrines Of prayer and marts Of gsin
Before the frey hurricane.
On theree-score spires had sunset shone,
Where ghastly sunrise looked on none:
Men claspel each others hands, and said |:
Tho City Of the West is dead!
Brave hearts who fought, in slow retreat,
The fends Of FIRE from street To street.
Turned, powerless, to the binding glare,
The dumb defiance Of despair.
A sudden impulse thrilled each wire
That signaled round that Sea Of Gre;-
Swift words of cheer, warm hear,-throbs
came;
In tears Of pity died the fsmel
From East, from West, from South to North,
The messages of hope shot forth,
And, underneath the sovereign wave,
The world, full-handed, reached to save.
Fair seemed the old but fairer still
The new the dreary void shall fill,
With dearer homes than those erthrown, -
For love shall lay each cornerstone.
Rise, stricken city from thee throw
The,sshen sack-c!oth Of thy woe,
Aid build, as Thebes to Amphion's strain,
To songs Of cheer thy walls again!
How shriseled in thy ho. destress
The primal sin Of sel6shness!
How instant rose, to take thy part,
The angel in the human heart!
Ali mott in vain the flames that tossed
Above thy dreadful holocaust
The Christ again has preached through thee
The Gospel OF Humanity!
Then swift once more thy towers on high,
And fret with spires that westean sky,
To tell that God is yet with us,
And love is still miraculsusl
L Atlantic, for December.

Gently announced, was a captain in the
confederate army from Louisiana, and his

head, and he was left upon the field to be
buried ~ Grants army. He was quite
well known in the Western army, and at

in-law of Mr.. Lincoln. In camp, when be

An old-fashioned woman remarks, with
pathetic retrospeetiveness: II can remember
when eight yards of print and ten or twelve
hours work, without a sewing machine,
would make dress, which required only
pretty collar, a black silk apron and a
brooch to arrange into a very neat toilet.
But that was when ladies did homework in
the forenoon, dined in the middle of the
day, occupied themselves in sewing in the
afternoon, and had tea at six o'clock"
