No sickness tb ere
J?o weary irma tine of the frame away:
No fearful shrinking from the midnight
No dread of summer's bright and fervid |
ray.
No bidden grief
No wild and cheerless vision of despair;
No vain petitions for a swift relief;
No tearful eyes, no broken hearts are
there!
Care has no home
Within the realm of ceaseless praise aud
song!
Its billows break away and melt m foam,
Far from the mansions of the spirit throng.
The storm's black wing
Is never spread athwart celestial skies!
Its Wallings blend not with the voice of
spring,
As Borne too tender floweret fades and
dies!
No night distils
Its chilling dews upon the tender frame;
No moon is needed therel the light which
fills
That bind of glory, from its Maker came!
No parted friends
O'er mournful recollections have to weep;
No bed of death enduring love attends,
To* watch the coming of a pulseless sleep.
No blasted flower,
Or withered bud. celestial gardens know;
No scorching blast or fierce descending
shower
Scatters destruction Uko a ruthless foe.
No battle word
Startles the sacred host with fear and
dread;
The song of peace, creation's morning
heard,
Is sung wherever angel minstrels tread.
Let us depart,
If borne like this await tho weary soul!
Look up, thou stricken one! Thy wounded
heart
Shall bleed no more at sorrow's stern con?
trol.
With faith, our guide,
White robed and innocent to lead the way,
Why fear to plunge in Jordan's rolling
tide,
And find the ocean of eternal day?
A? Interesting Story- or the War
Facts Stranger than Fiction.
There are now living in Cincinnati
a family, the history of which forms
something so romantic as to consti?
tute a most interesting story:
In the summer of 1859, Charles
Geroux became a graduate of a col?
lege in the Southern part of this
Stete. He waa the descendant of an
aristocratic family who lived in Lou?
isiana, and, to be brief, he was then
a full embodiment of the " chivalry,"
r \ inst having entered his majority,
while attending college, he had
formed the acquaintance of ClaraJ
Gt--, who attended %,-XoJ^ge~for
young ladiesinj^'city, which ac?
quaintance Opened into attachment
?af Jpjfc, and, just before the break
v ""'ut of the rebellion, they were
ed, and removed South. Misa
was an orphan, possessed of a
nsiderable property, which was
" ~ in trust by her uncle, a South
minister, who had raised her
infancy, and personally super?
iten ded her education. In addition
o the endowments of a collegiate
education, she was possessed of a
strong character, bordering almost on
the masculine, but tempered with a
sweetness and mildness not often
combined in the same person. She
was at once handsome and womanly.
Within a year after their marriage
and settlement in the South, came
the fierce, wild blasts of war from
Sumter's parapet, and there was none
more ready to enter the deadly fray
than Charles Geroux. His political
tutors were practical secessionists, and
he entered upon the war with a fer?
vor and zeal to command the admira?
tion of his friends, and which secured
him a major's commission. His wife
Opposed his mad scheme with all the
ower of a woman's eloquence, bat
o no avail. She openly espoused the
cause of the Union, and steadfastly
refused to co-operate with her new
friends and neighbors. Notwith?
standing her love for the old flag, and
pen Unionism, her husband loved
er, and, while her husband was at
home, the neighbors respected her.
Geroux invested all his ready proper?
ty, which included his wife's fortune,
in Confederate bonds, placed them in
her hands, gave her a kiss for a short
farewell, assuring her that the war
would soon be over, and, marching
at the head of a victorious column of
his country's defenders, she would be
proud to welcome him. After his de?
parture, her treatment by his re?
latives and neighbors became almost
intolerable because of hoi- hatred of
secession.
After two years of service in the
Confederate army, he was captured a
prisoner by the victorious Sherman,
in his march to Atlanta, and sent to
Camp Douglas,
"'"'his was good news to his wife,
who could no longer endure the per?
secutions she received at the South,
and she resolved to make her way
North and rejoin him in his prison
home, and if she could not secure
his pardon, to at least .^tny near him.
Her Confederate bonds were worth?
less, and she was penniless; she made
" er way to the Mississippi Uiver, and
took passage on the ill-fated steamer
Sultana for the North ; she sold some
jewelry for money sufficient to carry
her to Chicago. Arriving at Mem?
phis, her child was taken very il!,
and by the advice of tho captain of
the Sultana, she remained there to
secure medical aid for the child.
Within twenty-four hours thereafter,
e boiler of the Sultana exploded,.
" 200 h ves weredost.
oux fared ill at ease in Camp
nd_made many stratagems
e finally succeeded in
sentinel to let him pass;
pursuit, a resort to de
i
ception became necessary. A com?
rade of his was on the point of death.
His mess dressed the dead soldier in
the Major's uniform, and conveyed
him to the dead-house, and gaye his
name as "Major Charles Geroux,
Third Louisiana Regiment, Con fed e
! rate States Army." The next morn?
ing the body was taken away and
buried, and the rank, name, regi?
ment, and place of burial, were duly
recorded in the register of Camp
Douglas dead by C. H. Jordan, the
undertaker for the Government at
Chicago. That night Geroux es?
caped. His absence created no in?
quiry, as he was reported dead. For
the purpose of avoiding public roadj
and conveyances, he took a horse
from a pasture near Camp Douglas,
belonging to J. L. Hancock, former?
ly President of the Roard of Trade
of Chicago, and by avoiding public
roads as much as possible, reached
Momence the next day. His actions
excited suspicion, and he was arrest?
ed on suspicion of having stolen the
horse, and was lodged in the Kanka?
kee jail. He was taken out on a
writ of liabeas corpus, and no proof
being found to hold him, he was dis?
charged.
Coming thence to this city, he ob?
tained a situation in a wholesale gro?
cery house.
After the usual delays in passing
letters through the lines, he learned
that his two brothers were killed in
tho battle of the Wilderness, that his
father's estate had been confiscated
to the United States Government,
and his father had voluntarily exiled,
himself to Mexico. Of his wife and
child, the only information was that
they had sought to get North, and
took passage on tho Sultana, since
which they had not been heard of,
and no doubt remained that they had
perished. His true position had been
studiously concealed, and he avoided
his former acquaintances. Shortly
after he received this intelligence
from the South, Sherman had started
on his grand march from Atlanta, and
Grant marshaled his grand army be?
fore Petersburg, and the Confederate
States army vanished almost as a
vision. During the past summer,
Geroux returned to the South, and
was fully confirmed in the informa?
tion he had received about his family,
and that his real estate had also been
confiscated. He gave his wife and
.child np as lost, and^gi?riiied 4r 6?25
cinnati. .... *
Aftfr*-??8 -wife and child had re?
mained in Memphis, and escaped the
disaster of the Sultana, she started
for Chicago, and reached Camp Doug?
las. Impatient at the delay, she hast?
ened there with expectations high to
meet him who was dearer to her
than life. The reader can picture to
himself thc agony of this sad wife.
A stranger, ^stitute of money, car?
rying in her arms a weakly child not
yet recovered from a severe illness,
and she herself worn out with fatigue
and anxiety, when she learned that
her husband was dead. There was
no doubt of his death; the registry
kept at Camp Douglas showed it, and
the grave was pointed out to her,
which bore this inscription on a pine
board:
"MAJOR GEORGE GEROTJX,
Third Louisiana Infantry."
The same grave this day is neatly
sodded over, and at its head grows a
rose-bush.
Broken-hearted and bowed down
with grief, she wended her way on
foot to the great city of Chicago-not
knowing why she went. A stranger
among strangers, with no one to aid
or pity her, save the good God, who,
in her utmost heart, she believed had
forsaken her.
She was taken in and cared for by
the Sisters of Charity until she could
hear from her friends in Ohio, from
whom she had received no intelligence
for the past four years. A letter was
received, stating that immediately af?
ter the war her uncle had died, and
that, soon after, his widow had re?
moved to Iroquois County, Illinois, j
to Uve with her married son. Mrs. I
Geroux was supplied with money to
enable her to find her friends in Iro?
quois County, where she lins since
resided.
Geroux returned to his situation at
Cincinnati, and was sent by his firm
to collect a debt due in Iroquois
County. While there, he sought out
the attorney who had him discharged
on the habeas corpus to learn tho
whereabouts of tho horse that did
him such good service, and to secure
his assistance in collecting his debt.
He soon made himself known, and
while they were discussing about the
stolen horse, a lady and child entered
the same office. There was a mo?
mentary pause, and husband and
wife were in each other's arms. Wo
shall not attempt to describe the
scone which followed. Thc husband
found a wife and child whom he firm?
ly believed to be dead, and the wife
found a husband over whose grave
she had shed bitter tears of woe.
Mrs. Geroux was visiting the same
attorney to find out about her hus?
band's confiscated property, and t*
apply to thc Government to have his
property restored to li or.

"Father," said a cobbler's boy, as
ho was pegging away at an old shoe,
"they say that trout bite now."
"Well, well," replied tho jld gentle?
man, "stiel to your work, and they
won't bite you."
"Faith and sliure," said Patrick,
meeting an engine, "that's the divil."
"Och, no," said Mike,*"it's only a
steamboat hunting for wather."
THE EJURLY NEWSPAPER PRESS OF
AMERICA.- From a report of a lec?
ture on this subject, reooatly deli?
vered by W. XJ. Stone, at Bergen, N.
J., "we make the following extract:
The first press was established in
Cambridge, Mass., eighteen years
after landing of the Pilgrims, where
it was operated for forty years with?
out a rival in America. In 1644, cen?
sors of the press were appointed. In
1674, the first press was established
in Boston. In 1704, the first news
5aper appeared, called the Boston
fews Leiter, of the size of a half
sheet of foolscap, edited by John
Campbell, who announced, not long
afterward, that he was "thirteen
monti? behind in giving the news
from Europe !" In 1719, the Boston
Gazette was issued, of which James
Franklin was the printer. In 1721,
Franklin established the New Eng.
land Courant, and being soon after
imprisoned, was succeeded by his
brother Benjamin. In 1727, James
Franklin established a paper at New
Sort. In 1731, the Boston Weekly
Rehearsal-afterward called the Bos?
ton Evening Post-was started by
Thomas Fleet. New York, it seems,
was twenty-one years behind Boston
in newspapers, the first paper having
been established in 1715, by William
Bradford, under the title of tho New
York Gazette. The size was about
half-a-sheet of foolscap.
NOBLE SENTIMENTS.-This is an
agreeable world after all. If we j
would only bring ourselves to look at
tho subjects that surround us in their
true light, we should see beauty
where we behold deformity, and lis?
ten to harmony where we hear noth?
ing but discord. To be sure, there |
is a great deal of vexation to meet;
.we cannot sail upon a clear coast for?
ever; yet if we preserve a calm eye
and steady hand, we can so trim our
sail and manage our heirn, as to avoid
the quicksands and weather the
storms that threaten shipwreck. We
are members of one great family; we
are traveling tho same road, and shall
arrive at the same goal. We breathe
the same air, subject to the same
bounty, and we shall lie down on the
bosom of our common mother. It is
not becoming, then, that hTGtiier
should hate brother; it i? not proper
that friends. sk??*iu deceive friends;
it is 2I?? right that neighbor should
injure neighbor. We pity that man
who can harbor enmity against his
fellow; he loses half the enjoyment
of life; he embitters his own exist?
ence. "Let us tear from our eyes the
colored medium that invests every
object with the green hue of jealousy
and suspicion; turn a deaf ear to
scandal, and breathe the spirit of
charity from our hearts.
A strong room recently constructed
for a London bank is thus described :
The walls, two feet thick, are formed
of hard bricks laid in cement, and
with hoop iron worked in. The room
is lined throughout with wrought iron j
half an inch thick. There are two
Soors-the outer a strong iron one
with two locks, and the inner one of
jombined steel and iron, of extraordi
aary strength, with two locks throw?
ing ten bolts. A safe placed inside,
weighing eight tons and throwing
twenty bolts, contains the cash and
jecurities. An alarm in the resident
clerk's bed-room is attached to the i??
ude of the strong room, so that if j
:he outer door is opened, a gong is set
?oing. A porter sleeps on a bed in I
iront of the outer door, and by puli?
ng a handle he can set the alarm off !
f necessary, and there is a watchman
ilways on duty.
A Paris correspondent writes: "The
extravagance and eccentricities of |
adies of high life in matters of dress j
ire really beyond all description. '
With all you have heard, you will not i
ic surprised to hear that ladies, not 1
;ontented with wearing crinolines, ;
:he springs of which are made of
nire gold and silver, have now taken j
i fancy to boots with heels plated ?
.7'th the same precious metals. These I
joo s may actually be seen in the shop |
?ir dows of some of our fashionable
ilioemakers. "
French like to emigrate to any i
ither part of the world rather than
Aj French colonies. Of 778 emi?
grants who quitted Havre last Janu
?ry, 636 sailed for New York, l?? for
S'ew Orleans, 35 for La Plata, 1 for
Quebec, 1 for Rio Janeiro, and none
for the French colonies or Mexico.
Aman, who got drunk at an elec?
tion, said it was owing to his efforts
to put down "party spirit."
Somebody told us the other day
that one-half the lawyers live without
\ cause and die without effect. ''
