"Corporal Green I™ Hie Orderly cried;
"Here 1" was the answer, loin! and clear;
From the lips ol a soldier who stood near;
Aud ''here:' was the word the next replied.
"Cyrus Drew ["—then a silence fell —
This time no answer followed she call ;
Only bis rear man had seen him fall,
Killed Or woilsuled, blj SO old not tell.
There thev stood in the failing light,
These men of battle, with grave dark locks,
As plain lo tie read as opi-n nocks,
While slowly gathered the shade's of night.
The fern on the hill-sides was s-ibi.-hitr with blood
And down in the corn where the poppies grew
\Vere redder ibe stains than the poppies knew,
And crimson-dy-d tras the river's flood.
For the foe had crossed from tlm other side,
That day, in tlm faec ol a murderous lire,
That swepi tbem down lo its terrible ire ;
And th.dr Iff*, flood went to color the tide.

Wounded and bleeding to answer his name.

They went brothers, these two; the sail wind

And a ebodder crepi through the corn-field oear.

"When our ensign vei- shot, i Sell him dead;"

Two years ago tbe United Statea were at the Bum-
mit of eurtbly prosperity. Kingdoms gray with
centuries Bought its alliance, nations whose record
was the history of civilization, gaaefl with wonder 01
the new star that appeared in tbe political firmani
cut, the oppress..>r loolted to it wills wondering
dread, and the oppressed with yearning love and
reverence. In every tongue it wus. a synonym for
freedom, and its, example Ural the heartand nerved
the sarm of struggling patriots in every alnd.
America! —the very name suggested images of
smiling peace and plenly, a land flowing wi'li milk
and honey, a people prosperous and contented—
honored abroad iirel happy at home. No cilizen
iu Home's, palmiest days, bore st prouder title than
he who hid led Irom the Republic of the West. Then
an American citizen meant a freeman—one who
owned no lord "saving the Lord on high,1' who hold
Ins rights at the option of no petty despot, who owed
allegiance only to liifi country, and fealty only to his
God. From Maine to Telas, from the Atlantic to
tbo Pacific seaboard, resounded tho hum of thriving
Industry, for pence was within her borders, and we
were at peace with the world without. Two short
years ago wc might have defied lhe world in arms;
now we trcmblo at*thc thought of Intervention,
Two years ago tbe complications in European politics were ot no account to us, save when our sympa
thies were aroused by the gallant Struggle of some
oppressed nationality j now wo look to these up-
riaingH as a providential diversion In our favor, and
calculate thojeffect they will have; 011 the duration
and ultimate result of our war of the sections
i,l thiol and why ia thero sorrow in the dwellings,
and wildings throughout the land'? "Nobody's
hurt."
"Nobody's hurt!" Yet on tho plains and in the
valleys of Virginia fell thousands upon thousands ol
American citizens, whose death loft a gsip In many
a desolate heart, who died without religious consola
tion or medical aid—without tho soothing ministration of friends, or the loving csire of kindred—amid
tha horrors of battle, with tho sound of carnage, or
tho HUh ot charging squadrons, OF the groans of
wounded comrades in their ears, with the earth for
a pillow and tho wind for t\ requiem.
'■'Nobody's, hurl!'-' Vet Irom the waters of the
Mlaslaslppt, from tbe barbor of Charleston, and
from the waves of tho Ocean and the Gulf comes up
a gurgling cry, heard faintly and nt intervals amid
the iron storm that lashes the waters into frenzy,
and tliis cry gives the lie direct to tha axlomatized
untruth.

cano burst forth again just an it seemed extin-
e;-iished, more fiercely than ever, aud tbe whole
work had lo be done over again, when there is
neither time nor means to do it. And what
hope is there for England ? Who will be; her successor ? Who knows Iu her heart tlisit It will be
James? but she cannot bring herself to name him.
To bequeath, the 1'ruit of her labors to a tyrant,
a liar, and :i coward I (for she knows tbe man but
too well) it is too hideous to be faced. This is

It never could have been ; and she must endure to
the end. "Therefore, I hated life ; yes, I bated al)

wise man or a fool? Yet shall he rule over a
my labor, wherein I have showed myself wise, i

The dark day was ou the 10tb of May, 1TR0.
Where I then resided tbe darkness* at eleven o'clock
was no great that a caudle was lighted and placed
on tbe loots ; toe fowls « cut, to roost; tho sheep
sill huddled around hi a circle wiib their heads in-
,'ard. The grass to look nt it through tbe window
earned ofa yellow green, the same as to b ok
through smOke? glass upon greed grass. I well
remember that the gentleman of tho bouse retitl the
following scripture by the candle to his numerous'
family. "The sun shall be turned into darkness!
and the moon into blood, before tbe great and no-!
table day of the Lord's coming " The darkness1
was so great in the night lime that it was said by
one Dr. lliackington, who had resided near the
north part of Rehobotb, and who bail occasion to
be out among sick patients that night, that be
cou id not Bee his white haadkercoeif placed before
his eyes. Tbo darkness was so thick lhat it could
be felt.
The year 1780 was celebrated for its many north-
era lights ; covered the whole horizon over ; they
would flash like lighting aud fill the air with the
smell of sulphur. Tbe lights were so red that the
flashes would bring warmth against the face.
Tnegreatenow fall wasiu December, 1779, or
January 1780. It snowed seven claya ; tbe snow
waa estimated to be about four feet on the level and
drifts from eight to leu feet high. The snow
oame moist and coarse, and it was so cold that it
Congealed very hard. Tbe people traveled over
stone wails wilh their teams. It is said to be a
fact that for thirty days the snow did not melt from
the eaves on the sunny side. The bunks were fo
high that the sheep were buried up in them, until
they were found by their air holes, and dug out
alive.

There cannot he found iu the world a nation or
people where obedience lo law and its forms is
more religiously observed than in tlm loyttl States
ol this country to-day. It is observed Irom inibit,
education, and a sense that tbe safety ol" each demands Irom all tola obedience. The a.-st.oiiim.
then, that it. is necessary to override civil law by
military authority, is an insoleiil asm motion, biise
iu fact and Iheory, and insulting lo the people, Tiie
assertion lhat il. ia necessary in any one of these
Stales is not warranted by a single ciiciiuiniance
that has transpired in eillier; or LbOt muy be justly
apprehended.
What are the nei-oui; advanced for the substitution ol'civil lor military authority t Tbe ehiel one
is ibe alleged effect of the teachings of those who
oppose the War, intiainiiig public opinion againf!I
it. Added lo this are minor considersilions v'hich.
when t-eparr.ti.dy consitlered, are- too puerile for
notice. The time has been whell public np.siion
was vital 10 the Mipport ol the adininishi-atiou in
its conduct of the war. Public opinion responded
lo its claim, and gav«*. nil and more than a aa asked
ol men and means. The cbairman of . the Senate
ComroJUeti oo Military Affairs, in March, 1881,
said we were raising too many nieii, and thai enlistment must be stopped, and they were suspended. Il public opinion does not now respond with
"generous cmiidenee" then shown to tiie call
for voluntceis, whose is the fault? The people
uow, a« keenly as then, feel the necessity of ioalo-
luining lhe Union. As tbe probabilities of ila de-
StruCtion have increased, llieir leverence ior au in-
li'iest in it lias grown.
it is the adminiivjaliori Itself that bus driven
from itself lhe confidence asid respect ol ihe people.

In every tongue it wus. a synonym for freedom, and its, example Ural the heartand nerved the sarm of struggling patriots in every alnd. America! —the very name suggested images of smiling peace and plenly, a land flowing wi'li milk and honey, a people prosperous and contented— honored abroad iirel happy at home. No cilizen iu Home's, palmiest days, bore st prouder title than he who hid led Irom the Republic of the West. Then an American citizen meant a freeman—one who owned no lord "saving the Lord on high,1' who hold Ins rights at the option of no petty despot, who owed allegiance only to liifi country, and fealty only to his God. From Maine to Telas, from the Atlantic to tbo Pacific seaboard, resounded tho hum of thriving Industry, for pence was within her borders, and we were at peace with the world without. Two short years ago wc might have defied lhe world in arms; now we trcmblo at*thc thought of Intervention, Two years ago tbe complications in European politics were ot no account to us, save when our sympa thies were aroused by the gallant Struggle of some oppressed nationality j now wo look to these up- riaingH as a providential diversion In our favor, and calculate thojeffect they will have; 011 the duration and ultimate result of our war of the sections i,l thiol and why ia thero sorrow in the dwellings, and wildings throughout the land'? "Nobody's hurt." "Nobody's hurt!" Yet on tho plains and in the valleys of Virginia fell thousands upon thousands ol American citizens, whose death loft a gsip In many a desolate heart, who died without religious consola tion or medical aid—without tho soothing ministration of friends, or the loving csire of kindred—amid tha horrors of battle, with tho sound of carnage, or tho HUh ot charging squadrons, OF the groans of wounded comrades in their ears, with the earth for a pillow and tho wind for t\ requiem. '■'Nobody's, hurl!'-' Vet Irom the waters of the Mlaslaslppt, from tbe barbor of Charleston, and from the waves of tho Ocean and the Gulf comes up a gurgling cry, heard faintly and nt intervals amid the iron storm that lashes the waters into frenzy, and tliis cry gives the lie direct to tha axlomatized untruth. - *'Nobody's hurt!"

Where I then resided tbe darkness* at eleven o'clock was no great that a caudle was lighted and placed on tbe loots ; toe fowls « cut, to roost; tho sheep sill huddled around hi a circle wiib their heads in- ,'ard. The grass to look nt it through tbe window earned ofa yellow green, the same as to b ok through smOke? glass upon greed grass. I well remember that the gentleman of tho bouse retitl the following scripture by the candle to his numerous' family. "The sun shall be turned into darkness! and the moon into blood, before tbe great and no-! table day of the Lord's coming " The darkness1 was so great in the night lime that it was said by one Dr. lliackington, who had resided near the north part of Rehobotb, and who bail occasion to be out among sick patients that night, that be cou id not Bee his white haadkercoeif placed before his eyes. Tbo darkness was so thick lhat it could be felt. The year 1780 was celebrated for its many north- era lights ; covered the whole horizon over ; they would flash like lighting aud fill the air with the smell of sulphur. Tbe lights were so red that the flashes would bring warmth against the face. Tnegreatenow fall wasiu December, 1779, or January 1780. It snowed seven claya ; tbe snow waa estimated to be about four feet on the level and drifts from eight to leu feet high. The snow oame moist and coarse, and it was so cold that it Congealed very hard. Tbe people traveled over stone wails wilh their teams. It is said to be a fact that for thirty days the snow did not melt from the eaves on the sunny side. The bunks were fo high that the sheep were buried up in them, until they were found by their air holes, and dug out alive.

At tlm appoinle I hour the place was crowded wilh persona anxious to see the sight. When Palmaltl entered his den, the tiger appeared little disposed to go through his performance, and soon assumed such a threatening attitude that tho spectators became alarmed, ami Dried out, "That's enuiis;h 1 Leave him !''— At first tho tiger obeyed his orders, hut most unwillingly, after reciving several sirokes from his master's whip. After Ibis chastisement, tin mal lay down across tlm entrance ed the clou. ;md glared furion-ly at i'aimili as if about to spritq, at him, The man saw bis danger and attempted v. coax the animal away Irmu the door. Not cue C'.'d'.ug, he struck it three or four times with hi whip. The tiger then made a sudden spring, I lire, w bitu clown, and began fearing him with me teeth., to the horror of ail present.
