10 CORREsPoNDENTs.--Thc pressure OF
other matter upon our columns this week
makes it impossible for us to publish n
beautiful poem, written by an accom-
pllshed young lady Of Winchester to 'one
of the Brotherhood"
The communication entitled "Happiness
and Misery Is declined. We should bc
happy to publish It If it were not SO mis-
erably long.
We intended to publish the communities
ton Of Mid" solne two weeks since, but
1t was not possible. We extract as follows
from his article, albeit the day is late. He
had been in attendance, by invitation, up
on the services of the Rev. Mr.. Carter, on
grand old Cumberland mountain, and pas

church, and says:

plies her evening %care;" where piety has
gained a fOothOld; where industry has
met its reward, and where contentmcnt has

good people of The Sixteenth" Ga title by
which that neighborhood is familiarity
KNOWN to their place Of worship, a place
dear to every i~nhabitant Of the district.

to worship their Creator; here, also, ma

teaches to man, that even upon this grand
old mountain, where invalids go to reg in

"At the appointed hour the pastor an
nonnced his text "COmc, see aman. which
told me all things that | ever did: is not
this the Christ?' After Il few appropriate
remarks upon the necessity OF the spirit to
aid the minister in his services, he pro-
ceeded to explain the text in aclear and
forciblc manner. At the close Of the SER
mon he called upon all christian people,
of every denomination, to pledge them
selves to pray for the protection of the
youthful members of his church during
the Christmas holidays. As | witnessed
