"I am Dying Egypt, Dying

The letter Of our Louisville correspondent,
written on board the steamer General Lytle,
will be found of more than ordinary interest.
The name Of this -teamer recalls one Of the
most chivalric and pleasing incidents Of the

and which of them our memory does. not

only from printer to editor but from private
to General, was killed far in advance Of bis
command while gallautly leading au assault

our lines, and the steed and bis dead rider
were both captured. Soon asst was known
that the author Of that rare poem, IS familiar

they took him up, and when the battle was
over an escort Of honor, appointed from among
the leading Confederate officers, bore him back

Deferred Articles.
Good Citizens from the North are
Welcome.

The opinion is widespread among The cid-
zens Of Northern States that they would not
be wcll-rcccived by the Southern people, and
are deferred from settling in our midst. Good,
well-meauing, industrious citizens and capi-
talists arc welcome. The following Is the way
that worthy man, now Of Virginia, but, who
only few years since removed from Pennsyl-
vania, Hon. Wm Mines, Jr.,-whose worth
the people of his adopted State were not slow
to discern but manifested their appreciation Of
it by sending him to Congress- mentioned

He has a fine library He keeps abreast Of the
literature of the day by the best books and

the Union with hearty contemptlor the Radi-

have disgusted him with plfering and peddling
politicians. When there was an effort to OBJ

That we touch the heart Of foe.
1t is not by dwelling on fancied wrongs
That We feel oGr sting grow less:
And malice once entering the heart Is sure
To crush out all tenderness.
Forgive, forget, though the wrong be great,
And your heart be stricken sore
For thinking of trouble makes it worse,
And its pain Is all the more.
Do kindly things to your neighbors, con
Though they do not so TO you,
Though they be wrong, unjust unkind,
Keep your own heart ever true. is
The heart is a garden our thoughts the flowers
That's spring into fruitful life;
Have care that in sowing there fall no seed
From the weed Of cruel strife.
Oh loving words are not hard to say,

And the kinder the thoughts you give to others,
The kinder their thoughts for you.
