ThyVwdy and Thy bloodGive inc the Quest I
Lord, I am taint nnd tired ; my soul is sick
Of all tho falseness, all the little alms,
The weary vauitiea, tho g wping jo ys,
Tho slow procession of this satiate world !
Dear Lord, I burn for Thee I Give mo thy Quest I
Down through the old reverlierating time,
Iisec Thy knights in wonderful nrray
Oo out to victory, like the solemn stars
Fighting In courses, w ith their conquering swords;
Their sad, fixed lip, of purity nnd strength,
Their living glory, their mnjestic-death.
Oive mo Thy Quest! Show ino the Snngroal, Lord I
H lay upon a mountain's rocky crest,
80 high, that all the glittering, misty world,
AH autumn's splendid tempests lay below,
And sudden lightnings quivered at his feet ;
Kostttl, not any sound of silcntncm
Expressed tho silence, nor the pallid sun
Burned on his eyelids ; all alone and still,
Save for the prayer that struggled from bis lips,
Bsokcn with eager stress. Then he arosn.
But always down the hoary mountain side,
Tnrougli whispering forests nnd soft-rippled streams,
In cluttering streets, o'er the grent city's roar,
Still from his m-vcr-sated soul weut up,
'(jive moTliy Quest! Show 111c the SiingreiU, Lord!"
Through all tho land there poured n trumpet's dang,
And when its silver anger smote the air,
Men sprang to onus from every true nam's homo,
And followed to the Held. ., He followed, too
All the mud blood of manhood in his veins.
All the fierce instincts of a warring ruco
Kindled like flame in every tingling linib.
And raging in his soul on firo with war.
He heard a thousand voices call him bin
liivs hot with anguish, shrinking their despair
From swamps and forests and tho still bayous
That hide tho wanderer, nor bewray his lair;
From fields and marshes where the tropic sun
Scorches a million lalorcrs scourged to work ;
From homos that are not homes ; from motlior
' hearts
Torn from the infuntt lingering nt their breasts ;
Vroni parted lovers, und from shuddering wives ;
From men grown Hind with whips nnd tyranny;
From a country groaning in its chains.
Nor sleep, nor dream beguiled him any mow ;
He leaped to manhood in one torrid hour,
And armed, and sped to battle. Now no more
lie cried or prayed : " Show nie tho rfangi onl, Lord !"
; I
So in front of deadly strife he stood j
The glorious thupder of the roaring guns.
The resfless hurricane of screnming shells,
flid quick, sharp stinging ol tlie rille-l alls,
The sudden clash of snbi es.ond the heat
Of mpid horse-hoofs galloping at charge,
Mndcngreatcliorus to his valorous soul.
The dreadful music of a grappling world.
That fiurrled him to fight. Ho turned the tide, ,
But fell upon its turning. Over him
rtutlwod the starry flag, and fluttered on,
WWIe.be lay helpless on the trampled sward,
Itis hot life running scarlet from its source
And iril his soul in sudden quiet spent,
As still as An the silent mountain-top ;
So-still from tho quick reinemliered heart
Burst tluit old cry, '-show 1110 the Snngroal, Lord I"
' .'.(,-
Then a bright mist descended over him,
And in its central glory stood a shape,
Wounded, yet smiling. With his blooding hands
Wretched toward that bleeding side. His eyes divine
IJke anew dawn, thus softly spake the Lord
" Tho blood poured out for brothers is my blood ;
The flesh for brothers broken is my flesh ;
No more in golden chalices I dwell,
No longer in a vision, nngel-borne :
nitre is the Sangrenl, here the Holy Quest,
Thy prayer is heard, thy soul is satisfied :
Come, my beloved I I am oomo for tlioo.
At, first I broko the bread and poured tho wine,
80 T have broken thee nnd poured thy life, ,
So do I bless thco nnd give thanks for thee,
So do I hear the in my wounded hntids."
Smiling. Ho stooped nnd kissed the tortured brow,
Andoyor ai II its anguish stole a smile; 1.
Thc blooil-sonlcd lips unclosed ; the dying breath
Sighed, like a rain sound in n summer wind,
Sobbing; but sweet" I see the Snngroal, Lord "'
THE NATIONAL BANKS
Success cf Chase's Financial
.j;.:. Svslcm. : '
LETTER FROM It, J.. WALKER.
' We have heretofore presented our
viows quite fully in regard to tlio com
pleteness of Mr. Chase's system of Na
tional' banking, for the great objects of
. providing ways and means for tho sup
r port of the Government in tho proso
' ctation of tho war against rebellion,
'"and at thosnmo timo giving to tho poo
pld'of tho whole country a sound, uni
foi'pii,1 and 1 national currency. We
nowj lay toforo our rcadors tho sub
joined ( lottcr from Hon. Robert J.
Walker; on this subject ; commending.
it 'for tho' perusal of our friends as an
exceedingly clear, ablo, and yet brief
exposition of tho great system which
Mr. -Chaso has so wisely olaboratod
rbm 'tho fundamental' principles of
jTjjbanco and Currency that underlie
tfio '.hole. '
. 3ir.! Walker,, spoaking of this na
(tiouid baacing system, says :
",''1. A loan to tho Government lip
oid its bonds, reimbursable in twenty
yiaars,nut redeemable after nvo years,
ttt tho option of the Nation, the interest
being at Bix per cent, payable semi
annually in coin, as is also the principal.

per cent, stock.
" 3. Tho authorization of tho hanks
recommended in this report, whoKci-ir-culutiou
would bo secured not only by
privato capital but by adequate de
posits of United States stock with the
Government.
"A. To maintain in tho moantime us
hear to specie n practicable this fed
eral ennvney first, by making it re
ceivable in all dues to the Government
except lor customs; second, by priv
ilege of funding it in United Suites
stock; third, by enhancing the benefit
Df this privilege, not only by making
the stock, both .principal und intercut,
payable in specie, but y making it
gradually tho ultimate basis of our
whole bank circulation, winch, as
shown by the Census Tables before re
ferred to. (including deposits,) nearly
doubles every decade.
"5. By imposing such a tax on the
circulation of the Stato banks as, to
gether with Stato or municipal taxes,
would induce them to transfer their
capital to tho new banks proposed by
tho Secretary.
"6. To relievo tho new banks from
all Stato or municipal taxation.
"7. In lieu thereof to imposo a mod
erate Federal tax on all bank circula
tion ns a bonus to bo paid cheerfully
by these banks for the great privilege
of furnishing ultimately ' tho whole
paper currency of the country, and the
other advantages secured by these
bilk ... "
'This tax. is proposed by tho Secre
tary, was one per. cent, semi-annually,
which in effect, would have reduced the
interest on our priticipleJoaus from Fix
to four per coin, per annum, so far as
those loans were inside the basis ol hank
circulation. Congress, however, fixed
this tax at about ono-hnll", tints making
the interest on such loans equivalent in
fact to live per cent, per annum, so far
as such loans, at tho option of the hold
er, sre made the basis of hanking and
of lunik circulation; - This is u privil
ege which gives groat additional value
to these loans for ll e right to issue
bank paper circulation of tho country
free from State or municipal taxes is
worth far. more than one-half per cent,
semi annually, to be paid on such cir
culation. That this privilege is worth
moro than tho Federal tax, is proved
by t he fact that many banks arotilreudy
being organized under this system and
by the further-fact, that more than
820,000.000 of the legal tenders have
already been funded in this stock, and
tho process continues at tho rate of
from one to two millions of dollars per
day. It will bo obs -rved that the hold
ers of such bonds can keop them, if
they please, disconnected with all
banks, receiving the principal at ma
turity, as well as the semi -annual in
terest in gold, free from Jill taxes.
"But, besides the financial benefits to
the Government of Mr. Chase's system,
its other advantages are great indeed
It will ultimately displace our whole
State bank syscm and circulation, and
give us a national cwfcitcy, 'based on
amplo private capital and Federal
stocks, a currency-. of; viiifurm value
throughout tho country, and always
tvrtainly convertible on demand into
coin. Besides, by displacing the State
bank circulation, the whole bank-note
currency of the Union will bo based
on tle stocks of the Government, and
give to every citizen who holds the
bonds, or the ciiiTcncy(who will em
brace the whole community in 'every
State) a direct interest in the mainte
nance, of tho Union; ' '
"The annim! losses which our peo
plo sustain under the seperato bank
system, in tho rato ot exchange, is o
normo'ud, whilst the constant and ever-
recurring insolvency , of so many of
theso institutions, 'accompanied by 8
general bank suspensions of specie
payment, havo from time to time
spread ruin and devastation through
out tho country. I believo that, in a
period of twenty years, tho saving to
the people of tho United States, by the
substitution of tho new system, would
reach a sum very nearly approaching
the total amount of our public debt,
and in time largely exceeding it. As
a question, then, of national wealth, as
well as national unity, I believe the
gain to the country in .timo by tho a
doption of the new systein will far ex
ceed the cost of the war. '..It was the
Slate bank system in the rebel States
that furnished to secession mainly the
sinews of war! . These banks are now
generally insolvent, but if tho banking
system now proposed bad been in ex
istence, anil the circulating medium in
all tho States'had been a uniform, na
tional currency, bused entirely on" the
stocks of the United States, the rebell
ion could never have 'occurred; Every
bank and nil -it stock holders, and all
the holders' of all' the stock and notes
of all the banks, 'embracing our wholo
paper currency, would jiave been nni
ted to tho Government by an interest-
so direct and: universal that rebellion
would have been impossible. Hamil
ton and Madison, Story nnd Marshal,
and tho Supremo Court of tho; United
States, have declarod that to tho Federal-
Government belongs" tho 'ontiro
regulation bf tho currency of tho coun
try.' That power they havo now ex
ercised in tho adoption of tho system
recommended bv tho secrotary. 'Our
whole currency, in coin as well ns pal
por, will soon now all bo national,'
which is the most imnortaht moasure
for tho security and perpnity of tho1
Union ana the welluro ot the people
ever adoptod by Congress. It is to
Congress that tho Constitution grants
the cxclusivo power 'to regulate com
merce with foreign nations and among
tho States;' and a sound uniform cur
rency in coin, or convertible on demand
into coin, is one of tho most essential
instrumentalities connected with trade
and exchange." " ' '

joining m- regiment until I was disa

countermarching and fighting,;that
when I did havo a little time to myself
I was only too glad to use it in recrui
ting my exhausted system.
Last summer (the summer of 'G2) I
had the plcasuro of visiting and spend
ing a few niontlm in the citwof Rich
mond. This is the way it happened.
On the morning of the 2Sth of June,
(tho morning after tho battle of
"Gaines' Mill," I awoko to find that1
I had made my bod in a pool of blood, !
or rather that I had lost so much blood lion have complied ; but a proposition,
during the night from two wounds ro- "' llint ",U "thing from any per
, ., ,ir ii- son, would have been the signal of
ceived the day belore, mid being una-1 1 4 1 1 -.i

tried to change my position; but try ! deigns of Generals Lee, Joo Johnston,
as I would, the most I could do was to j Bragg. Beauregard, Smith, Holmes,
raise mvself on my. elbows-thc sight ! M:,nl,,, r; 11 j" Yancey, etc. They all
, , . . ' . . , , expect to be President of the Confeder-
that then met my view, was too much ; Kt.t(,s. helore they would see
even for me, so I was glad to sink buck ; the restoration of the Union thereby
to my old position in tho saud and
blood.
I have often been told that " ichcre
Ihcre is auill there is a way" but 'my
experience demonstrates that it won't
hold good. My will was certainly
strong enough to get up and leave the
battlo field, but tho way was not forth
conrng. Tho third morning after the battle
I was waited on by a select committoc
composed principally of "Southern
Chivalry" and members of tho "first
families of Virginia," who expressed a
strong desire to have me visit Rich
mond. As I had every reason to be
lieve them in earnest, I could not find
if in my heart to decline tho pressing
invitation. To uiako a long story
short, I accepted, and was conducted,
with great pomp, to their imperial
city, where I was furnished with splen
did quarters in that first class hotel,
" Libby Prison." On being carried in
to' the hotel I was struck to see so
many guests and so few waiters; but
then it must bo borne in mind that
this "bousa" was kept on a plan dif
fering entirely from that usually
adopted by all first class hotels in the
north ; being on a new plan it was
merely an . experiment. They were
trying to demonstrate satisfactorily
how long a "Yankeo" could live with
out eating. I believe I said I was sur
prised to sco so few waiters. My sur
prise did not last long, for I soon dis
covered we. were all waiters waiting for
our meals which wo seldom received,
I had not been a patron of the Home
very long when I was forcibly re
minded of tho old ballad commencing
"Still to giMitlyo'cr inc Htpulinji," 4c.
I remained thcro until their hospi
tality became irksome, when I bid all
a sad farewell, (what a whopper) and
returned to the North whero I will re
main if I can at least I will not .Visit
Richmond again very soon if I ean
help it.
Fossibly you may romomber that in
case I was wounded I was to come
and stay with you until I got well.
When I mado the remark little did I
think that a few months would find mo
i ;
suffering from tho effects of two severe
and dangerous wounds. Often while
in my Prison Hospital did I wish my
solfinyour house, but wishing done
no good. Notwithstanding tho sever
ity of my wounds I was not cast do':;n,
for tho thought that they wero received
while in the discharge of my duly,
was sufficient to keep my spirits from
drooping. My only desiro now is to
return to tho field, which I think I will
do neJft spring, the Lord and tho sur
geon willing. . .
. " When this' cruel war is over" I in
tend visiting Lanenstcr and will stay
with you whether you desiro my com
pany 'or not.
'j I: cannot close this hastily written
lotton without thonking you for your
many acts of kindness during my short
stay at your bouse. . On reviewing the
the past I will always remember my
sojourn in Lancaster as ono of the very
few bright spots with which my life
has been blessed.
Hoping you may be pleased to re
ceive this with favor, I remain respect
fully, 4o.

willing to take it upon the terms of the
United States Government, let them be 1
'bat they may. A large majority of
mo ijiiaisiana volunteers, commanded
Jby Brig-Gen. A. Mouton and Green
and Si,nt, will never cross Sabine riv
er to go into Texas. I will stake my
cxistiinc-c on it. tha", two-thirds of Tay
lor's armj- deserts him beforo he gets
into Texas.
There is a great disaffection among
the citizens ol the country, who, previ-
ous to the emancipation proclamation
of the President of the United States,
were good Secessionists, are now as
trood Union men as they were rebels.
Thy saw plainly that by complying
with the proclamation tho war could
be brought to a speedy close, and the
further c'l'iision of blood evaded. But.
ah! why did not the. people of the rebel
Slates comply ? Gladly would seven-
eights of the noil slavcholding popula
blasting forever their political expecta
t ons lor. the liilnro they would see
the soil of Texas crimson with the blood
if lwi' ("niii-iN- ili.liirl.ft nnil . tivi'ilon
j down) people.
I assert, positively, thr.t it is not the
: hnilt of the citizens of the States in re-
hellion that the Avar is not ended and
the Union reconstructed. Twelve
months ago, if the legal voters of the
rebellions States could have gone to
the polls arid voted 'their sentiments
perfectly untrammelled, they would
havo voted reconstruction by two
thirds majority. The U. S. Govern
ment should wage a war of exterinina
tion against tluni. and never lay down
tho sword until Jeff Davis with every
other lender of this rebellion, may be
s.'en dangling from the limbs of trees
at tho end of a rope. 1 have witnessed
scenes in the confederate army, perpe
trated upon tho helpless and unoffend
ing by Confederate soldiers, that would
make inhumanity itself blush. When
Gen. Taylor retrea cd from the Teche
last, summer (or the latter part of last
spring, I believe), there was scarcely n
farm house on the line of march but
what bore oecul.ir proof of the depre
dations of Sibley's men ; and the only
excuse they made for robbing the citi
zens was that they did not want to
leave it for the Yankees.
The- even went so far as to shoot
cattle down on the prairie, and leave
them for the buzzards. I saw a Texas
soldier shoot a soldier's wife's cow in
her yard, and it the only i ne she had
and because she remonstrated, set
her house on fire and turned her and
her little ones out doors.
Who, I ask, is responsible for all this?
Echo answers, Jell'. D.ivis k Co . and
the ghosts of thousands of helpless wo
men ami children, and poor deluded
soldiers, will loom up before him in the
day of judgment, and point, their long
skeleton lingers toward his naked spi
rit, and enumerate the sufferings and
insults which he caused them in this
world and the testimony will sink
him deeper and deeper into his Satanic
Majesty 's den, till the creakings of the
fastenings will die away in tho dis
tance. Tho stronghold of the Western rebel
forces is Galveston, and is nothing to
compare with those at Vickshurg and
Port Hudson; and, indeed, they may
be forced to evacuate Galveston with
out firing a gun. If Gen. Banks pen
etrates Texas from the cast toward
Houston as far as thcNatehes orTrin
it' river, Magruder will fall back to
Houston. The supplies of the Colora
do river cut off from tho confederate
army, they aro lost. A want of cloth
ing, provisions and money has com
pletely demoralized tho trans-Mississippi
Department.

The ImmfUillr of the Great Eoalern.
The novelty of the Great Eastern
has passed away, but the ship is. in it
self, us much a wonder us ever. She is
now in New York, after her eighth
voyage across the Atlantic, and a wri
ter in the New York Herald gives an
interesting sketch of her from which
we quote the following, as giving a bet-
ter idea of her mammoth proportions
than can be had bv a mere enumeration
of statistics
breadth, &c.
regarding
her
length,
Like the Pyramids she seems rather a
. i. . V.. . . .i i . . i . !
great, win kui mini man uiiiing mane
with hands. Numbers in feet and
inches are of no assistance in the at
to not fo understand her si.e. Every
link of her great cables weighs seventy-two
pounds; she carries four thous
and of such links, as much iron as two
hundred carmen's carts could carry,
forged into the single item of chain ca
ble 'by iron tools.' There is ono engine
of sixty horse power, whose only busi
ness it is to miningo these cables and
the hooks at the ends of them. These
hooks, anchors, if you prefer that
name with which the great ship tum
bles about in the deep, for the granite
formations the ribs of an antediluvian
world, to hold fast by, were also made
with tools nnd have some weight of
their own. There are four of these.
If ono was cut into seven pieces, each
piece would bo a load for one of tbe
largo coal carts which go about our
streets, carrying, if tho coal dealers
don't lie, two thousand pounds apiece.
Or it world take just forty-six shots of
General Gillmore's 300 pounder to
throw ono of theso anchors from Mor
ris Island into Charleston city. The
four great anchorsof the Great Eastern
would make ono hundred and eighty
six of lliosc pills. Oh! that they might
fall on tho Ues of Jeff. Davis.
Beside tho four anchors which we
have thus reduced to pills and popular
appreciation, tho Gient Eastern has
six other anchors for ordinary occa
sions, and not so large.
Similar heavy jobs to that of tho
anchors aro divided among tho differ
ent steam engines on board; for, in ad
dition to her crews of engineers nnd
sailors, this Great Eastern has a com
plete crew of steam engines. Theso
fellows are notoften mustered on deck;
but they nro kept in none tho less ex
cellent order for that. They number
just thirty-three. Now, thirty-three
stcriin engines not only require a very
largo number of tools to make them,
but, being made, they can do an im
munso amount of work. They do all
sorts of chores lift heavy weights,
pump water and so on. They make
themselves goncrally useful. Wo num
ber with tho rest the main engine, by
which this great mass of materials is

was directed chiefly on the southwest

carried a war twice.but speedily replac

the flag ol the 12th Georgia was used
instead. The casualties on Saturday
were two killed and four wounded. The i

A Sharp Editor. Editors, like oth
er shrewd men. must livo with their
eyes and em's open. A good stor' is
told of oiii wbo started 11 Tinner in n
western town. Tbe town was infested
i with gamblers, whose presence was a

told the editor that if he didn't come
out against mem iney wouiu not pal-. provisioll lor t!l0 respectability ofpeo
roimo his paper. He replied that he , 0 wll0 arc iu hllmblo circUmstances.
would give them a "smasher next j We ,lol d out il)dutement8 to them to
day. Sure enough his next issue con- j livc icyond tlteir means. In Europ
turned the promised -smasher; and on I .,,, M ;,.. n,,., ,i..,f ,1Pfl intnl!i-nf.
the following morning the redoubtable
editor, with seisors in hand, was seated
in his sanctum, when in walked a large
man with a club in his hand, who de
manded to know if the editor was in.
"No, sir" was the reply, '-he has step
ped out.. Tako a seat, and road the
papers; he will return in a minute."
Down sat the indignant man of cards,
crossed his legs with club between them
and commenced reading a paper. In
the meantime the editor quietly va
mooshed dowu stairs, and at the land
ing he met another excited man with a
cudgel in his hand, who asked if the
editor was in. "Yes, .sir" was the
prompt rcsponee. "you will find him
up stairs reading a newspaper." . The
latter, upon entering the room, with a
furious oath commenced a violent as
sault upon the former, who resisted
with equal ferocity. The fight was
continued until they had both rolled
to the bottom of tho stairs, and had
pounded each other to their hearts'
content.
Jitst the Girl Ton Him. The
Springfield Republican adds to the sto
ry of the man, who when told by his
landlord that he could not leave his
house until he paid his bill, replied,
"Good; jist put that in writing, make a
regular agreement of it; I'll stay with

Temptation to Dlahoneetf. '
There are temptations to dishonesty
that spring from extravagance. Our
society is very vicious in its whole
structure in this regard. We make no
tmd refincJ can entertain their friends
in u plain room, with plain furniture,
und treat them to a plain repast, and
nothing will be thought of it. A Ger
man will invite his friends to come
and see him, and they together will net
iu common fellowship and in pleasant
conversation, and make their repast
from a loaf of bread and a pitcher of
water, and there will be no thought
but that the host is respectable. And
1 think that if a loaf of bread and a
pitcher of water were, a moro frequent
meal, there would be less dyspepsia.
In Europe they are not ashamed to
live plainly, even for economic reasona,
and men respect each other for it ,But
in American society we have a vicious
to vdency to make men ashamed to live
within their means. They say: "I will
not have comprny unless I can have it
as my neighbors do." They aro slaves
to other people's opinions. They have
not courage to say, "this is my place,
here are my means, and I can afford to
entertain my friends in my wayjbutif
they cannot como to see me as I am,
they need not come at all." .
Young people want to begin further
along than they are able to. They want
to keep house as twenty years of suc
cessful nnd fruitful industry have en
abled men to do it. They measure ev
ery thing on the pattern of somebody
else. There is a want of self respect
founded on one's good breeding and
fundamental honesty. Extravagant
is almost invariably married to dishon
esty. B.Thero are thirty -five hospitals
in Nashville, Tennessee' A late letter
from that city says: - .
"A largo part of the wealthy popu
lation of this aristocratic cityt were in
Peragg's army, under Breckinridge and
Cheatham, at tho late battle and great
numbers have boen killed. Out of
sixteen hundred under Breckinridge
thirteen hundred were killed and
wounded. It is said that three-fbai th
of the ladies of the Episcopal Church
are in mourning for their dead. Ive
orything looks . warlike here.. From
seventy-five to one hundred cars gp
out every morning, with cotton, troops
or supplies." ,
