LOVES PHILOSOPHY,

The fountains mingle with the river,
And the rivers with the ocean,
The winds of heaven mix forever
With a sweet emotion;
Nothing in the world is single;
All things by law divine
In one anothcr's being mingle-
Why not l with thine?
See the mountains kiss high heaven,
And the waves clasp one another:
No sister flower would be forgiven
If it disdained its brother;
And the sunlight clasps the earth,
And the moonbeams kiss the sea
What are all these kissings worth
If thou kiss not me

The Union Soldiers and Sailors Associa-
ton Joined yesterday, with the other civic
and military organizations In the great and
good work of decorating the graves OF the
Union soldiers reposing under the mounds Of
Chalmette. They were received under driz-
cling rain by Capt. Sambola's Fifth Company
Orleans Artillery, who opened ranks to the
right and left for their passage, with eolors
flying. They express themselves as highly
pleased with their reception, and at the same
time could not help feeling that the Grand
Army Of the Republic did not so much as notice
their presence. It must be stated In this con-
nection, that the Union Soldiers and Sailors
Association are now on the eve of forming a
Gen. Mower Post MOI of the Army Of the
Grand Republic.
