When she had found that her heart had bee

Who would thoughtlessly pass
Whole hours parsding the street,
While the mother would scrub
All the while At the tub,
Never minding the cold or the heat.

For his patron has bolted, or worse.

They will faint in q trice

Yet their parents were poor,
And we're forced to endure
Many hardships lifes current to stem.
It is SO! It is SOL

But it's 30.
There are many about

Who will pirate for the harm Of q laugh;
Yet they'll cheat all the week,
Though on Sundays so meek
To my mind, they're too pious by half

ATLANTA FOR THE SEA.
About a. IN. of Nov. Is we rode
out of Atlanta by the Decatur road,
filed by the marching troops and
wagons of the Fourteenth Corps; and
reaching the hill, just outside of the
old rebel works, we naturally paused
to look back upon the scenes of our
past battles. We stood upon the
very ground whereon was fought the
bloody battle of July %, and could
see the copsc Of wood where Me-
Pherson fell. Behind us lay Atlanta,
smouldering aud in ruins, the black
smoke rising in the air, and hanging
like pail over the ruined city.
Away off in the distance, on the
McDonough road, was the rear of
Howard's column, the gun.barrels
glistening in the sun, the white
topped wagons stretching away TO
the south; and right before us the
Fourteenth Corps, marching steadily
and rapidly, with cheerful look and
swinging pace, that madel light of the
thousand miles that lay between us
and Richmond. Some band. by acci-
dent, struck up the anthem of "John
Browns soul goes marching on" the
men caught up the strain, and never
before or since have heard the
chorus OF GLORY, glory, hallelujah."
done with more spirit, or in better
harmony Of time and place.
Then we turned our horses heads
to the east; Atlanta WAS soon lost
behind the screen of trees and became

many thought of desperate battle,
of hope and fear, that now seem like
the memory of dream; and ! have
never seen the place since. The day
was extremely beautiful, clear sun
light. with bracing air, and an un-
usual feeling of exhilaration seemed
to prevade all mjnds--a feeling of
something to come, vague and uDde-
| fined, still full OF venture and intense
interest. Even the common soldiers
caught the inspiration, and many a
group called out to me as | worked
my way past them, 'Unc!e Billy,

Richmond" Indeed, the general
sentiment was that we were march

Burglary.

Saturday night the store of Wellman
Brothers, in Brockwayville, in which is
also the Post Office, was entered by burg.
lars, and and all the loose scrip and nickle
in the money drawers, aud some postage
stamps taken. An effort was made to
blow open the safe with powder, but the
first effort was not successful, the powder
bursting inside; and not making any open
ing. Another effort to open the safe was
made from the back, hole being drilled
for another blast but they made SO much
noise that the wife of one of the Wellman's
as wakeped, and the burglars finding
they were discovered, made good their es-
cape.
Constable A. K. Morey and Mr.. Joseph
Taylor started in pursuit,-the burglars
having about four hours Start Of them,-
and followed up their trace down Mill
creek to Port Barnett, and from thence to
Knox vile, where they discovered the party
they were after h I'd taken their breakfast.
From Knoxville they were traced over and
through all the rough roads and by'ways
possible until arriving at Troutville, Clear
field county where they came upon the
game they were after, and made the arrest
of two men, bringing them to Brookviile
on Monday morning, when they had a
hearing before Squire Maize, and the evil
nence being conclusive, were committed to
Jail to await trial at the ensuing term of
court. On their examination they gave
their names as Joseph Foster and William
Austin. A satchel containing full set of
burglars tools were found in their pos ses-
sion, together with oil the supplies neces-
sary in the business they were discovered
engaged in. A map of Pennsylvania, with
their route marked out upon it, was also
found with them. The horse aud buggy
found in their possession is suppO sed to be-
long ct ST. Mary's or Ridgwly.
To the energy and perseverance of Mr.
Morey and his associates, Joseph Taylor
and j. s. Barber. the latter leading the
trail from Knoxville, are due the capture
of these men. They followed the traces
fully sixty miles, and arrested the prison
ers within twenty.f -four hours from the time
the crime was committed. Re

T1oNEsTA FIRE.-We learn from
the Tionesta Republican of last week
that the saw mill OF Mr. Ditheridge of
that place was burned on Monday the
3lst of May. The loss was about SIS,
0C0 and no insurance. About 200,,
600 feet of lumber was saved. The
mill was the most complete and expen-
sive of any ever erected in that region
and its operation gave employment to a
large number of men. The fire
was caused by heated Journal. The
sawyer saw the smoke, but could moi
loca,e the fire until it burst through the
floor.
The Press says G. W. Ditheridge
WIS in Plttsburg at the breaking out Of
the fire, but he was in Tionesta before il
was out, had men at work cleaning away
the debris, and all his plans and specii
cations for another mill determined
upon aud under way before he slept
That's what he's going to do about it
The I'ress puts the loss at over 500,

THE PRESIDENTS THIRD TERN
LETTER. - REVERDY JOHN
SONS OPINION OF 1T,

SONS OPINION OF 1T,
New York, June 4.--The Herald
publishes long letter from Reverdy
johnson, dated Baltimore, in which
the writer, giving his opinion of the
Presidents third term letter, says:
That what sacrifices, if any. the Presi-
dent may have made in accepting the
first or second nomination, they have
nothing to do with his election for the
third term, and whatever abuse he may
have been subjected to during the time
he has held the Presidency, is equally
irrelevant. The Constitution does not
prohibit, and the people are at liberty
TO elect to third term, but until the
time of President Grant, none oil his
predecessors who held the Office two
terms gave the most distant hint OF
wishing to accept the Office again, nor
was it suggested" The idea of TIE
President that the safety of the country
may demand the reelection of a Presi-
dent tor the third term, johnson con-
siders an idle conceit, having no other
support but the most egregious vanity.
The question now agitating the public
mind is whether Grant shall be elected
to third term. johnson believes he
will not be renominated; or if he i,
will hardly receive the vote of a single
State. The President seems to regard
it as mere matter Of dollars and cents,
and johnson infers that if the salary
the President now receives should be
secured to him as a retiring pension, he
would gladly leave the Office at the end
OF the present term"
