Ret,rinr the Old Fellows.

From the Army and Navy Journal
Officers of the army will be pleased to
learn that Gen. Meiggs has come out fat
footed in favor of compulsory retirement.
The General has written letter to the Sec
retary Of State-or rather to the gentleman
who was Secretary of State few years ago
in which he gives the President and Secretary
some wholesome advice as to matters per-
tanning to the army.
He tells the Secretary that the army Is en-
numbered with lot of old gentlemen, over
sixty years Of age, who are very much In the
way OF the efficiency or the army, and the
only way to get rid Of them is to retire them
and let their places be filled by younger
men, etc.
It is true this letter was written to Mr..
Seward in 1861, or thereabouts, but we must
take 1t for granted that the gentleman Is OF
the same opinion still.
This letter will be printed IN the first VOL
ume of the Rebellion Records, which we
will be able to peruse in few. weeks.
But IL must not be considered that oil the
general officers or chiefs of bureaus are all
of General Meiggs way Of thinking, Tor we
have before us letter supposed to have been
written by General Marcy, in which opin-
ions quite the contrary are expressed: Inc

Two Hearts That Beat As One.

Orange Co. Corr. New York World. d.
Not far from this place is the home OF two
young ladies-sisters- aged respectively
1s and 20 years. These two young ladies
were receiving the addresses oftwo brothers
who resided in a neighboring village, ana
both couples were engaged to be married.
A few days ago the four were sitting togeeh--
er at the residence of the girls, when the
elder expressed desire to attend Demo
cratic political meeting. She asked her IN IN
tended to accompany her, but he refused
fiatly, giving as reason that he was not not. .
Democrat. The young lady insisted, but he
firmly refused. Finally she turned to the
brother, who Is q Democrat, and asked him U
to accompany her. To the surprise OF OF all pc
at once consented, and off they went to '','"f the
meeting, The two thus let at home .1ll unma- ia,
ted of course felt very indignant. Discus sn
sion made them all the more angry and led %
to the discovery that both were Republican !,
in sentiment, while the two had gone on
were of Democratic proclivities. Little by
little other similarities of tastes and habits
were discovered, and finally they decided to
break off their old loves and form new a.
,iance. No sooner said than done, and the
compact was sealed and ratified with "a kiss
Presently the others returned, and the Re-
publican an who had remained behind informed
his brother Of the new alliance. To hi
great surprise he was informed that the 9th
er couple on their way home had also resoiv
ed on the same course. Unless the couple
conclude to swap again the double wedding
will take place during the holidays. ''.

A New Motor.

The Vi Ina correspondent of the London
Eeomomss gives the following account of =
new vessel for propelling vessel: .-
"AtKiei. a first trial Of the hydromotoqr
ship, inverted by DIR. Fleischer at Leipzie,
was made recently at which Postmaster-Ge Cen
eral Stephen was present. The ship moves
along the water by means Of steam engine
but without the aid of paddles Or. screw.
The force which propels 1t Is hydraulic reac &
tion. There are holes in the ship through
which water passes into reservoir. A cen
trifugal pump, moved by the machinery,
pumps the water Of the reservoir ntI and empt-
les It into the sea by tive pipes which INA have we
their openings In the middle Of the ship, ct
the height ofwater..line. They can be di-
rected either forward or backward. The dis
charge of wa.er can be regulated minutely,
80 tha no other steering will be necessary
The ship has burden OF 100 tons, u Is II
feet broad, no feet long and draws u feet
It makes ten knots an hour, but its dimen-
sions are hindrance to its progress, and the
steam engine Is too feeble for Its size.' The
new propelling power, 1t was argued, proved
far stronger than either paddle or screw. In
one minute 5000 gallons Of water are dis.
charged. After the first start the ship moved
as gently as If it were sailing vessel. The
small steamer on which the spectators had
| arrived could not keep UP With 1t. In the sea
| small sailing vessel me: the hydromotcl
| ship. The pilot approached 1t closely and
| succeeded in stopping the ship in an instant
| by turning the pipes only, by which means
he turned it around also. Afterwards thu
| ship was moved In circle with the Creates
ease. Postmaster-Generai Stephens express
ed the hope that by his new invention al
danger of collision might" evermore .p'
avoided" ... ...,-

The autumn air sweeps faint and chill
Across the maple-crested hill,
And on my ear
Falls. tingling clear,
A strange, mysterious woodland thrill
From outmost twig, from scarlet crown,
Untouched with yet tint Of brown,
Reluctant, slow,
As 10th to go,
The loosened leaves come wavering down.
And not hectic trembler there,
In its decatlence, doomed to share
The fate of all,
But in Its fall,
Filings something sob-like on the air,
No drift nor dream Of passing bell,
Dying afar in dusky dell,
Hath any heard,
Whose chimes have stirred
A tend, rer pathos of farewell.
A silent shiver, as OF pain,
Goes quiv'ring through each sapless vein;
And there are moans
Whose undertones
Are AZ sad as autumn midnight rain.
All, IL without dirge-like sigh,
No lightest-clinging leaf can die,
Let him who saith
Decay and death ....
Should bring no heart-break, tell me why.
