From the Xenia Torchlight. COLUMBIA, MY GLOHV. BY XBS. IXU IRWIN LKE. In dreams, through evening purples zoned with stars. I drifted to the Occidental Deep: And back, twixt Palm and Pine, to the blind bars Whereon Atlantic breaks, and widows weep. And in my dreams, there floated up the hum And murmur of the nations spread below; And never heart was sore when tongue was dumo. And never heart but had a want or woe. So, all these tongues, that, had the land foe. Had shrieked the " Scots wha' hae' wi' Wallace bled." Now. like avenging imps, flew to and fro. To speed Belsliazzar's curse of Pride and Dread. Ye mighty ghosts of Tell and Winkeireid ! t-pea it wi tu y our gory tongues from glory Shall Freedom, bought and sold for miser's greea. Set nations free, and stoop, herself a slave? Yet so the voices spake ; anon ihe Celt, Anon the Teuton and the Saxon, each With each concession new restrictions felt More rights he had, more claimed beyond tils reacn. But still, within my dreams,! onward sped. Ana still the clamors lonowed me amain : And still one subtile strain, celestial, spread le-jjeumsTonnn auumro tne auuian pain; As if the souls of the Heroic Dead, At watch above the sights they sealed sub lime. - Saw, through the heavy tears the living snea7 Columbia's Fntnre srllri the hiehts of time. A yea aud nay is my inconstant story. Like wrinkles crossed in sana aoove tne tide: As men abuse, Columbia, my Glory, The lana wnere license io aouse is wiue. 1 heard the ring of bugles up the street. That shook tne sammer-meilowed bun day calm : And throbbing drums beat into merry feet The piety that skips oeiore a psann. My little Pat and Nora, your degree oiu t.rin set, or win you yea or nay ; But here your luscious cheeks may blossom iree Your feet may hold their own where princes may. Bot Erin pipes to dance another measure ; The loaves and fishes dusty eating make ; A pipe aud stiftWb grog alone wiil pleasure The afflatus for the handle of the rake ; And Erin wills that free America shall wrest the negro's clutches on tne vote. And school her Celtic-children on her knee. To take her coming freedom oy tne throat. Fair Germany, with tresses under burden Of purple-dusted vintage of the Rhine, Thanks, welcome ! If thou brinest us the gueiaun Of a gospel swimming deen in native wine. But Columbia is weeping under curse. The working sinew snapoluK on its strain: I fear me much the drunkard and the hearse W ill follow like avengers in your train. The Sabbath of the new world is our due ; The coming ages tremble in its spell. Endure that we contest an inch with you Who slack not to deiraud us of an ell. Republics are not pillared with a throne They settle to the stature ot a man. Until you show a hero of your own, we moaei on tue w asningtoniaxi pian. O China, statue blind and dumb as blind ! Your idols you resemble, wood and stone: We, who have none, most piously wuJLl grina Your pattan features to our Christian own. But China, flocking to the new-world shores, Has taken up the mattock and the hod ; Her idols oreas: across our western doors ; vv nat cnina asKs oi us is Dut a uoa. As they that love go sobbing thro' the dark At souud of every wail of human pain, As Noau could not drown within the ark ine dying shrieks that wrestled with the rain : So they that suffer in the van of right must reau, m countless aumu patnetic The souls by night that march to God in iignt, Though daily stumbling thro' earth's straightened places. We feel ahead the latter Era tremble : We have not wanted martyrs to the breach : And traitors now, who dare the truth dis- semoie, Must hide before its advent out of reach : For Freedom shall be free when Right is Might, When man is what he can, then man shall be,- The surface-babble shows the gate aright, ine unuer-wainng only ffives uie Key. Who gave a son in trasic sixty-one io seal ine precious iaitn we neia in trust, I ii i i..i i.i i iij ii j t 1 1, i hi wuul ii - uub uone. So treads hlH wt.uuds al'refeli Into the dUBL The " Human' fills the century's refrain. The ballot is its badge for which he fiehts: But still his wrongs must plead with us in vain, Until the church shall train him for his rights. If China standeth to beseech an alms, Her paganism shaking to its fall. If she draw us not as human by her palms, This, verllv. were euiitiest of all. She will scourge us, she will curse us till we ieei. With the bitterness of death within our bones. How a moral wrath, with weapons not of steel, Pierces deeper than a soldier's dying groans. Lo, the poor Indian ! on the far horizon, Which Daniel's goat is pushing to the sea. Write Blood ! when white man hunts him as his bison, For savage beast nor man 1kws he the knee. Now who shall bear the odium of Cain, w nen a Del araws tne dagger oi onense t As the Christian, so the savage in the luain, With a lower Btoop to glut nis savage sense. But all the stains that smear Columbia's shield Must blanch before the Lybian's dusky shape And still St. Paul is dragged i nto the field AO protect the pure Caucasian irom me noe. Bat Columbia hath one way to judge a man, Ann another, as by horns ana iioois, ner kine: And Jesus, tho" a Jew and swarthy, can MaKe room xor someiinng unuer me ai vine. By this my song is ended, and the rather, lhe dreaming voices navmg sped away. - As reapers in the harvest time will gather The wheat and leave the stubble to decay, So I drew up thro' my rhyming the refrain. ine yea and nay, ana tnrew tne "lis away : Another reaper may come by again, Ana reap a ncner narvesi : let it oe. By this my song is ended : we are free, And we are slaves, and so we stand ; With a super-grand Ideal, in the way borne super-numan nmarance to with stand.

The poem has some crudities and ob scurities of rhetoric ; the unpracticed genius has struggled for expression; but the genius isthere, most unmistakably, and ten more years of literary labor would put this woman in the very front rank of American poetesses. In deed, there are passages in this effort that I do not believe there are even now five other women in America capa ble of producing. Verses that will bear, and reward, intelligent study as these will, are exceedingly rare in our days of jingling wishwash and rhetor ical nambypamby. There are all along these lines the glow and flash of that light which was never yet on land or sea that light which, like the bright eyes of Poo s Annabel Lee, cannot be seen, but can only be felt.

It is true, that if entertaining persons will devote themselves exclusively to him, reading and telling stories, he may be kept quiet: but then this is discour aging work, for he swallows a story as Kuver does a piece of meat, and looks at you for another anii another, with out the slightest considera:ioo, so that mis resource is ot short duration, and then the old question comes back. What is to be done with him? Butafter all. Charleycannot be wholly shirked, lor he is an institution a solemn and awiul iact; and on the an swer to the question. What is to be doue with him ? depends a future. Many a hard, morose, bitter man has enme from a Charley turned off and neglected ; many a parental heart-ache has come from a Charley left to run tbe streets, that mamma and sisters might play on the piano and write letters in peace. It is easy togelrid of him ; there are fifty ways of doing that. He is a spirit that can be promlly laid, but if not laid aright will come back, by-and- oy, a strong man armea, when you ein not send him off at pleasure. Mamma and sisters bad better pay a little tax toCbarlev now, than a terri ble one b v-and-by. There is something significaut in tho old English phrase, with whtcn our scriptures render us familiar a man child a MAN-cbild. There you have tbe word that should make you think more than twice be fore vou answer the question, "What shall we do with Charley ?" For to-day he is at your feet ; lo-day you can make him iaugu you can make him cry, you can persuade, coax, and turn him" to your pleasure ; you can make bis eyes fill an ) his bosom swell with recitals of good and noble deeds ; in short, you eau nji'uid him if you will take the trouble. ' - But look ahead some years, when that little voice shall ring in deep bass tones; when that small loot enaii nave a mau't. weight and tramp; when a rough beard shall cover that little, round chin, and all tbe willful strength of manhood fill out that little form. Then you would give worlds for the key to bis heart, to ue uum lo luru auu iiuiuo mm io yuur will: but if vou lose that kev now he is little, you may search for it carefully, with tears, some other day, and never nnd it. Old housekeepers have a proverb, that one hour lost in the morning is never found all day. It has a significance in this case. One thing is to be noticed about Charley, that, rude and busy and noisy as he is. and irksome as carpet rules and parlor ways re to him, he is still a social little creature, and wants to lie where tho rest of the household are. A room ever so well adapted for play, can not charm bim at the hour when tbe family is in reunion ; he bears the voi ces in the parlor and his play-room seems desolate. It may be wanned by a furnace and lighted with gas, but it is hitman warmth and light be shivers for; yearns for the talk of the family, which he so imperfectly comprehends, and he longs to takehis playthings down and play Dy you, anu wiulwbbuj' promis ing that of the fifty improper things which he is liable to do in the prlor. he will not commit one if you will let him stay there. This instinct of the little one is Nature's warning plea God's admoni tion. O, how many a mother who has neglected it because it was irksome to have the child about, has longed at twenty-five to keep her son by her side and be would not. Shut out as a little Arab; constantly told that he i noisy, that he is awkward and meddlesome, and a nlaerne in general, the boy has found at last his own c-impany in ihe streets, in tbe b'llnviws and hedge, where he runs till tl ay comes when the parents want their ton, and tbe sis ters their brother, and then they are scared at the face he brings biek to them, as he comes all foul and smuttv from the companionship to which they have doomed him. Depend upon it, if it is too much trouble to keep your bov in your society, there will oe places found for him warmed and lighted with no friendly fires, where he wh" finds some mischief still for idle hands to do, will care for him, if you do not. You may put out a tree and it will grow while you sleep, but a son you cannot vou must take trouble for him either a little now or a great deal by-and-bv. Let him stay with you nt least some portion of every day; bear his noise and Lis iunorant ways. Put aside your book or work to tell him a story, or show him a picture ; devise still parlor plm s for htm, for he gains nothing by tieina allowed to spoil the comfort ot the vb- le circle. A pencil, a sheet of puper, and a tew patterns will some times kp p him quiet by you for an hour w hile you are talking, or in a cor ner he may build a block-house, annoy ing nohitlv. If he does now and then di-iurli yon, and it costs you more thonuht. and care to regulate him there, balancn which is Ibegreatostevil to be dimurbed bv bim now, or when l.e is Ofall you can give your Ciarley, if you are a good man or woman your presence is the nest and sxfest tiling. God never meant him to do without you anv more than chickens were meant to grow without being brooded. Then let him have some place in your house where it shall be no sin to ham mer and pound and make all tbe litter bis heart desires, and his various schemes require. Even if you can ill afford the room, weigh well between that safe asylum and one which, it denied, he may make for himself in the street. Of all devices for Charley which we have, a few shelves which he may dig nify with tbe name of a cabinet, is one of the best. He picks up shells and pebbles and stones, all oh.Ik and nds, nothing comes amie; and if you give him a pair of scissors and a little gum, there is no end of tbe label be will paste on, and ibe hours he may inno cently spend sorting and arranging. A bottle of liquid gum is an invalu able resource for various purposes, nor you mind though he varnish bis nose and fingers and clothes, (which he will do of course) if he does nothing worse.

Gesebai. : Full of solicitude for the futurof our country, I come ictYA my nearz in my nana to learn tne conditions, M'wAes and intentions of the people of the (southern states, especially to as certain tbe sentiments of that body of Drave energetic aucl sell-sacriticing men, who after sustaining the Cunfed eiacv for four years, laid down their arms, and swore alleeiance to the Gov- ernment of tbe United States, whose trusted aud beloved leader vou have been. I see that interpreting States1 rights to conflict with national unity, bus produced a violent reaction against taem, wnicn is arming us toward con solidation ; and also that so great a country as ours even now is, and i certainly to be, must have htate gov ernments to attend io local details, or eo further and tare worse. It is plain to us, at the West and North, that the continuance of semi-auarch v, such as has existed for the last three years, in lea states oi our union. I a reel v in creases Ihe danger of cnntralizatior swells our national expenditures, di minishes our productions and our rev enue, insures aouuis or our political nd financial stability, depredates the value of our national bonds and cur rency, aud places the credit of the rich est below that of the poorest nation in cnristenaom. vve know that our cur rency must be depreciated so long us our bonds are below par, and that. therefore, the vast business and com merce of our country must suffer the terriblii,evil of a fluctuating standard of value until we can remedy the evil condition of things at Ihe South. We also see other mischief quite possible, u not prooaoie, to arise, such as irom a failure of crops, a local insurrection. and so many other unforeseen contin gencies, which may still more depreci ate our credit and currency, provoke discontent and disorder among our peo ple, ana tiring aemagogicai agitation. revolution, repudiation, and a thous and unnamed evils and villainies on us. We know that the interest of the peo ple of the South are for law and order. and they must share our role of good Or ill. I believe everyone I know, who reflects, believes that if ibe people ot the Southern States could be at peace, and their energy and good will he.iniiy applied to repair the wastes of war, recognize their business, set ihe freed men peacefully, prosperously and con tentedly at work, invito capital, enter prise nd labor from everywhere, to cme ireely among them, they would soonrebuiid their ruined :ortunes,mul- tiplv manifold tbe value of their lands. establish public confidence in our po litical stability, oring our Government bonds to a premium, our currencii to a gold standard aud assure for themselves aua tne wnoie nation a most nappy ana prosperous future. Seeing this anu now ail lust interests concur in the work, I ask, the ollicets and soldiers who fought for the Union ask, every thinking man of the great West aud North asks, why it can not be done We are told by those who have controlled the Government for the last four years that the people of the South will not ao is ; mat it ever a one at all t must be done by the poor.t-iinole. un educated, landless freed men and tbe few whites, who, against the public sentiment of the intelligent white peo ple, are willing to attempt to lead, and make tnetr living on tness ignorant, nexpenenced colored people ; mostly men who must be needy adventurers or without any of those attributes on which reliance for good guidance or government can be placed. We are told that this kind of government must be continued at the South until six or eight millions of intelligent, energetic white people give in to it, or move out of the country. Now, 1 think, the Union army thinks and the people of the North and West, I dare say, believe there must be, or there ought to be, a shorter surer wav toget good government for all at the South. We know that they who organ ized and sustained the Southern Con federacy for four years asrainst triizantic efforts, ought to be able to give peace, law, order ana protection to tbe whole people of the South. They have the interest and the power to employ, pro tect, educate and elevate tbe poor freed men, and restore themselves and our country to all the blessings of which I have just spoken. The question we want answered is, are they willing to do it ? I came down to find what tbe people f the South think of this, and to ask vou what tbe officers and soldiers who served in tbe Confederate army, and leading people who sustained it, tbink of these things. I come to ask more. I want to ask you, in whose purity and patriotism I here express unqualified confidence, and as many good men as you can conve niently consult, to say tvtat you thinkof it, and also what you are willing to do about it. I want a written expression of views that can be followed by a con currence of action. I want to know il you and the gentlemen who will join in that expression, are willing to pledge the people of tbe Snath to a uoivslrous and magnanimous devotion to restor ing peace and prosperity to our com mon country. I want to carry that pleige high above the level of party politics, to the late officers and soldien of the Union army, and to the people of tbe North and West, and (o ask them to consider it, and to take tbe necessary ac'ion, confident that it will meet with a responce so warm, generous and confiding, that we sball ee iy is sunshine s he rainbow of p-ace io our pol ticl rky, now black with clouds and impending storm. know you arc a represimlative man in deference and regard for the Union, the the Constitution, and the welfare of the country, and t bat what vou would sav would be indorsed by nine-tenths of the whole people of the South, but 1 should like to bave the signatures of all the representative Southern men here who concur fn your views, and ex pressions of their concurrence from tbe principal officers and representative men ttnougbout the South when they can be procured. This concurrence dl opinion and wills, all tending to peace, oider a nd stability will assure ourUnion soldiers and business men who want :uiiHtantial aud solid peace, and cause i hem to ri.e above the level of party politics, mid take such steps to meet voiits as will insure a lasting pence, w ith all its countless blessings. Vi ry truly, your lriend, W. S. Roskcrans. To General R. E. Lee. GEN. LEE'S KKPLT HE DICTATES CON DITIONS AND MAKES KNOWN HIS WISHES BUT DOES MOT BAY HE WILL FOBU1VE BOS EC BANS. White Sulphur Springs, West Va., August 26, lSOil. General: I have had the honor to r ceiv your letter of this date, and In aec-ririi.-e with our suggestion, I I... e on :cri ed w I n a number of geh ilciiio trtln the South, in whose judg ment Iluve collided, ai.tl who are ac quainted w ith tho public sentiment of their respective States. They have kindly consented to unite with me in replying to your communication, and their names will be found, with my own, appended to this answer. With this explanation we Drooeed to irive to give you the following statement of wuai. we oeiieve to De the sentiment ot the Southern people in regard to the subject to which you reTer : Whatever opinion may bave prevail ed in the past in regard to African Bla vory, or the right of a State to secede from the Uniou, wo believe we express the almost unanimous judgment of the Southern people when thev declare that thoy cousider theso questions were de cided by the war, and that it i their intention in good faith to abide by that decision. Atihecloseof ihe war the Southern people laid down their arms. Hud sought to resume their former re lations with the U n. ted States Govern ment. Through their State Con vent tins ttiey abolished slavery and annulled their ordinances of secession, and they returned to their personal pursuits i n-ilh annrnnu In tnlnll .11 l.huir llllliu under the Constitution of the United States, which they bad sworn to sup - port. If their action in these particft lara bad been mot iu a spirit of frank ness and cordiality, we believe the old irritations would have passed away, and the wounds inflicted by war would nave neen in a great measure healed. As lar as we are advised, the people of the South entertain no unfriendly feel ing toward the Government of the Uuited States, but they complain that their rights under tbe Constitution are withheld from them in the administra tion lhere f. Tlii idea that the people are hosUu to the nenroes, Bud would oppress them if . ; wer in their power to do s.., is entiri y unfounded. They have grown up in our midst, aod we have been accustomed from childhood to look upou theiu with kindness. , The change iu the relations of the two races has wrought no change in our feelings toward them. They still con stitute tbe important part ot our la boring population Without their la bor, the lauds of the South would be comparatively unproductive. Without the employment which Southern agii cnlture atlorils, tbey would be destitute of the means oc subsistence, and be come paupeis, l pendent on public bounty. Self-itin lest, even, if there were no higher motives, would there fore prompt the whites of the South to extend to t he negroes cre and piofcc tion. Toe import.int fact that tne two races are, undet existing circumstances necessary to eactfi other is gradually be coming apparent . both, and ae be lieve tuat, but i'oi iuiluences exerted to stir up tho assio..of tho negroes, the relations of the two races would soon adjust themselves on u, basis of uiulu al kindness nnd ndvautage. It is true that the people oi the South, together with the people of the North anu Vest are, tor obvious reasons, opposed toany systems of laws which would place tue political power ot the country in the bands of the negro race, but this njfc, posttiuu springs irom uo leeliny of en mity, butlroui atleep-seated couvictioii that at present, the negroes have neith er the intelligence, nor other qualifica tions which are necessary to make them sfe depositories of political uower. They would inevitably be the victims of demagogues, who lor selfish pur poses, would mislead them, to .be seri ous injury of the pub. ic. The great want of the South is peace. The people ean.estly desire tranquility and ihe restoration of the Union. They depreoate disorder aud excitement as the, tuost serious oostacle to their pros perity. They ask a restoration of rhuir tight under the Constitution. If tliev desire relief liotii oppressive misrule. above all, they would appeal tt lheir Countrymen for the re-establishment tu the Southern States wfthat which has been just y regarded as1 the birth right of every A mericau, tbe right of seil-goverument. Establish t hat ou a firm basis, and we can. a!ely promise ou behalf of theSiuthern people, that they will obey the Constitutiou and laws ot the United ctatcs, treat the ne gro with kiudness and humanity, and luinii every uuty lticunioent on peace ful citizens loyal to-tbe Constitution ot ilieir country. , , We believe Ihe above contains a suc cinct reply to tbe general topics em braced in your letter, and we venture to say on behalf of the Southern peo ple, and ot the officers and soldiers of the late Coulederato army, tbat they will concur in ull the sentiments which we bave expressed. Appreciating the patriotic motives which have prompted your letter; and reciprocating your expressions of kind regards, we have the honor to be, v ery respectiujiy ana truly, F. W. Perkins, S. C R.

General Rosescrans writes to Robert E. Lee that he belieyes him to be a patriot.iiL whom Rosecraos has "un qualified confidence;'.' and roquestshim after that piece of soft sawder, to 'pledge the South to a chivalrous and magnanimous devotion to restoring peace and prosperity to our common country" whatever that may mean. How does Rosecrans wish Lee to "de vote himself ?" W hat is Lee to do? He is to write a letter, as a representa tive oi tne soutnern people. Lee answers attcr tne same iashiou. He speaks of the southern Democrats throughout, as the only "peoplo of the South." He asserts, contrary to truth, that "the people of the South," meaning the southern demo cratic party, abolished slavery; and he writes as though their whole submis sion to the laws of the Union wasvolun- tary, when it is well known that John son had to use sharp words with the rebel leaders to induce them to accept, in words the abolition of slavery; and it is even supposed that Grant and Lincoln had to use something sharper than words for the same purpose. Finally, Lee adds, coolly, that the only way to have peace is to let what be calls 'soutnern people -that is to say the southern democratic party rule as they did before tho war, and trust to them to 'treat with humanity and kind ness' the political opponents.thesouth- j em Republicans, whom he will not even ! allow to bo a part of the southern people. as to Lee s patriotism, wnereare tne evidences of it? When a parcel of demagogues in 18C1 began an insurrec tion whose avowed omecc was to over throw tho Union, and disgrace and ex terminate the flag, Lee deserted from the army, and went over to the enemies of his country. Was that the act of a patriot ? Since the war ceased, Lee has been sulking in Virginia. He has doubtless great influence among the southern democrats; ho might have used this influence for the good of the country. He might have told his admirers that they ought to obey the laws ; that they ought not to be intolerant of others' opinions; that they do wrong to abuse and kill the whites and blacks who were loyal during the war, and now. belong to the Republican party. He might have told his adherents thet peace means good will on both sides. That would have been patrotic. Has he done so ? No; he has chosen to sulk, in silence, determined apparently that tho restor ation of peace and good will shall not have the help of his potent voice. Whatever influence he has had since 1K6-3 has gone to increase the noble ar my oi "soreneatts ' in tne southern states; the crowd of the dissatisfied who feel in their hearts what Robert Toombs spoke out the other day, that "as the late war was produced by the defeated democratic party in I860, we shall never have peace till it is restored in 1868." But Lee's patriotism is no more use ful than his humanity, of which ho himself boasts would bo trustworthy. When he talks about humanity and kindness to those whom he wishes to be left in helpless dependence, does ho imagine that peoplo here forget An dersouville and Belleisle? Does he think men and women here forget the cold and hateful cruelty of the rebel commander-in-chief, who saw thous ands of our brave fellows starve and freeze under his own eyes in the hor rible swamp of Belleisle, near Rich mond? was Lee humane when our men rotted in the Andersonville pen and he refuses to write the brief order which would have ensured them sulli cient food, clean water and space to aleep in? Was Lee humane, when in grim and cruel silenoo ho suffered thousands . of Union soldiers to perish ot want and cold in llellislo but a mile or two from Richmond, wnicii ne constantly visited? Is it not a little too impudent for Lee ...IT. .. 1 1 . . - . ....... uccv. U ,Ji ' VI . .1 I.

But this "patriot,'? in whom Rosocrans has nnauestioned confidence, and who starvod a good many of Rosecrans's soldiers to death a few years ago, no more hcsit.ites to talk of huiiiitniiy than Howell Cobb, Bucliiiuau's Secretary of the Treasury, hesitates to talk ubotit honesty, or Wado Hampton obout "chivalry," or Simon Bolivar Huckner about honor, or Ferdinand Mondes Pinto Beaure gard about truth, or than any of the whole gang of demagogues who tor years tried to break down and destroy the Constitution, now hesitates to weep over the stirred noss of that instrument.

There are people here simple enough to think that arrogance very little befits the leaders of the late rebellion; and that unhanired rebels are not perhaps the most proper expounders of the laws, or the most fit persons to rule the country they did their best to ruin. And even if our memories were feebler than they are, thev are likely to be refreshed when Wade Hampton denounces southern Union ists as "scalawags" who ought to be driven out of society and out of the country; when a thrice-perjured trait or like Toombs asserts that there Whall be no peace unless his feWow-demo-crats can rule; when Cor, Xi ho, as the Secretary of the Treasury, treacher ously broke down tlie credit of the United States before going over to tho councils of faVis, now denounces southern wKte Unionists as infamous, and calls upon his hearers to give them "no mor?y," but to "drive them from the prfle'of socialand politicalsocietv;" or when Lee, the most cruel and das tardly ofall, guilty of the horrors and miseries of Bellelsle and Anderson- ville, haughtily demands that the re bel leaders shall be restored to power, and that we shall trust to his and their "humanity and kindness."

He wuz one uv them wrct sholdered his fowlin peece to roswt the draft up in this county, and wuz taken by bloo-coated hirelins and carted off to Camp Chnse where he wuz kept in deorance vile for weeks, with nothin whatever to live onto but the yoosual rashens uv a soljer ! One old relic uv the war, wich his name it wuz Babbitt, accompanied Vallandy gum through the lines, wich lines wuz commandid bv Rosecrans. He wuz present when that accursed villain t that tool uv the despotic ape Linkin hed the impudense to aboose our martyred Saint, and his blood biled cz he heered it. At this pint, the entire assemblage profaticd. The letter uv Rosecrans to tho Legislator Uv Ohio wuz dooly read, and the andashus sen timents thereiw contained wuz dooly and emphatically damned. Ez the lik ker circulated, we got more and more enthoosiastic on this pint, and our blood warmed and throbbed more vilently through our veins ez we toast ed Vallandygum and forever and ever cursed the wretched hirelins who op prest him, and through him, us. Finally we heerd the rumblin uv wheels over the hill and we knowd that it wuz Squire Pettibone a com in from the stashun with tho news nv the Convenshun. He drove up and we rushed out to greet him.

" shouted Pettibone, "My friends 'ror for Rosecrans and victory !" ' " Wat ? " rcmarkt a dozen uv us. "Who?" remarkt the others. "Hell !" remarkt tho balance. " Yoor trifllin with us!" rcmarkt Pepper. " None uv yoor jokes," ojackilated Bortle. And tho astonisht Pettibone wuz in danger uv bein roughly handled. But he finallyconvinst them that Rosecrans wuz reely and trooly the Dimocrntie nominee, and that it wuz no joke wat ever. I hed a great deel uv trooble with 'cm. They wuz bound not to touch Rosecrans, and they swore they hed bin betrayed and sold out. The plat form, however. saved us. When I red it to em and expliincd how cleerly it con demned the war by refoosin to pay tho indebtedness inkurred in prosokoolin it, and how indignantly it spurned the adiiiinistrashcu aud so on, thoy became cool.
