WEARING OF THE GREEN.
"The following is the celebrated song which
created such intense excitement throughout
Great Britain, and for the incorporation of
which in it Mr. Boncicault's piny vArrali na
I'ogue" had to be withdrawn from the London
Stage: 1 ' ' ' ' '
-" : -: '
' Oh ! I'addy, dear, and did you hear
' The news that's going round,
. The Shamrock is forbid Ly law to
' To grow on Irish srround.' ' .
' Ho more St Patrick's Day we'll keep, '
The color can't be seen,
For there's a bloody law against the .
' Wearing of the green,
1 met with Nappy Tander, and he took
Me by the hand, :;" '
. And said, "How's poor ould Ireland.,
And how does she stand'"
She's the most distressful country that '
fiver you have seen.
There's bauging men aud women there for
Wearing of the greeD.
.' 11. '' ' '
Then, since the color we must, wear is
England's cruel red, ' ;
Sure Ireland's sou's will ne'er forget the '
.. Blood that they have shed. . . y
You may take the Shamrock from your hat
And cast it on the sod; ':
It will take root and flourish there, ' --
' ' ' Though under foot it's trod. . r
- When the law can keep the blades of grass
, From growing as they grow,
And when the leaves in summer time
Their verdure dare not show,
Then I will change the color
I wear in my can been; , .. , .
But till that day, please Ood, I'll slick
To wearing of the green I
'. in. ' : i
But if at last the color should

Of the conspicuous devices, upon the bonds.
the portraits of the well known Irish patriots,
Robert Emmet, Wolf Tone and Fitsgerald are
prominent These are skillfully engraved from
authentic original pictures. The composition
of the crinciual allegorical viznette UDon theae
bonds deserves particular notice from the fact
that one of the chief officers connected with
this interest furnished suggestions adopted by
the artist in its design. Erin is represented aa
a maiden pointing to the sunburst from behind
distant mountains, which are typical of the
centuries of oppression, and of the difficulties
to be overcome before the just sun of liberty
will be in the ascendent With the right hand
she points to the unsheathed sword lying upon
the ground, thus indicating the only hope for
the regeneration of Ireland. An Irish soldier
is represented as stooping to grasp the sword
with his eyes nxed in the direction 01 the na
ing sun. In the foreground accessories of the
picture is shown the Irish wolf-hold, crouching
at the feet of the figure -AVin, and the ancient
harp of Erin. In the background, one of the
ancient round towers of Ireland in a conspicu
pus point in the landscape.
UNPROFITABLE FARMING.
1. Purchasing poor land at a low price, in.
stead of the best at a high one.
3. Want of underdraimnir in all places where
work is retarded, growth lessened, and manure
lost by a surplus ot water.
J. Inefficient fences, admitting depredators
to destroy crops, and deranging farm order.
4. .Building poor barns and stables, and al
lowing them to become dilapidated.
a. w mtering cattle, sheep, and colts at stacks
in the open fields.
b. Plowing badly, on the shallow cut-and-
cover system, instead of throwing up the soil
into a fine deep, even, mellow bed of earth.
7. Covering seed imperfectly, in conseouance
of such bad plowing, and thus allowing weeds
and grass a joint occupancy of the land.
o. 1'lanting and sowing too late, thus dimin
ishing the crop to an-amount equal to what
would be the whole nett prefit; that is, throw
ing away the entire avails.
9. Allowing corn-fields to be filled with a
dense undergrowth of weeds, and potatoes and
turnips with a dense overgrowth of the same.
1U. f rocuring cheap implements, and losing
many times the cost of good ones by the slow
and imperfect work they perform.
II. Leaving implements exposed to the
weather, to crack, warp aud decay, scattering
them in fields, about the barn-yard, or along
the side of the public highway.
14. Throwing brush, rubbish, Ac, aloiiglhe
fences and highways, thus promoting the
growth of luuUios, thistles, burdocks, and net
tles, instead of destroying such brush by fire,
and leaving neat and clean borders to the fields.
1J. fjantingthe same crop year after year in
the same field, thus diminishing the product,
and filling the land with weeds.
14. Omitting to spread manure at the right
time, and then selling or giving it away to get
rtd of it
15. liaising hump-back cattle aud lauk-pike
hogs, that will consume monthly their entire
alue in feed, instead of the best animals which
fatten easily on little, aud sell quickly for cash
at high prices.
A SINGULAR STORY.
The Macon Telegraph tells tbe following aad
story of the war: "I learned yesterday the cir
cumstances of a melancholy quandary in Which
an young lady, one ot the most estimable and
lovely in this part of the country was placed.
A gallant young officer was betrothed to her.
He fell on the fatal field Of Sharpsburg. She
loved him dearly, and was afflcted far beyond
what lovers ot a more buoyant temper would
have suffered. She went into mourning seclud
ed herself from society, devoted herself to re
ligious and charitable deeds, and was "dead to
the world." A few months ago, a young gen
tleman of great wealth, superior talents, and
handsome person,- accidentally formed her ac
quaintance, in the progress of a nusiness trans
action. He was fascinated with her; persever
ed until he overcame her aversion little by lit
tle, aad finally they became engaged to be mar
ried only a fortnight ago. She had already
made out her order tor an elegant trosseau.
But four days ago her first lover returned. He
had been carried to a Northern hospital from
tbe battle-field, with no hope of 'lite, and bad
just been liberated and returned. He has a
frightful scar across nis iace, only one eye, and
is an invalid lor Hie, and is poor; but in his
bosom burns a manly and noble soul. The
poor girl has shut herself up, and will not see
either 01 uiem. 1 ne meeiing oeiween nar and
her first lover the other day is said to have been
distressing. His letters had failed to reach her,
and she firmly believed him dead till he stood
before her the ghastly ruiu of her lover, once so
handsome and manly. Poor fellow! I have
caught a glimpse of him once as he passed along
the street, with his crutches and melancholy
face."

GENERAL SHERMAN AND THE SHERMAN
FAMILY.
Col. Bowman, who is soon to bring out
a history of Sherman's Campaigns, gives
a glimpse of the General origin and early
life.; He says: ,,,, , ,,. . '
-3illiaiu Tecuuiaeh Sherman was Lorn
in Lancaster, Ohio, on the 8th of Febuary,
1820. The branch of the Sherman family
to which he belongs is deeeudeut of the
Hon. Samuel Sherman, of Dad ham, in the
county of Essex, England, who came to
Massachusetts in the year 1634, iu com
pany with his brother, the- Rev. John
Sherman, and their cousin,: Captain John
Sherman. The two latter settled at Mil
ford, in Connecticut, ami became the foun
ders of useful and influential families.
Roger Sherman was a descendent of the
Captain's- - Samuel Sherman, after resid
ing for a time at Wetherstield, Connecti
cut, removed to Stamford, aud finally to
Stratford, , jn the same, Statewhere'the
family remained for many years-
His death left this large family iii very
moderate circumstances. Shortly after
wards, being theu but little past nine years
of age, William- Tecumseh was adopted by
the Hon." Thomas Ewing, one of his fath
er's most intimate friends, as a member of
his own family. Mr. Ewing sent him to
sclicx 1 in Lancaster until his sixteenth year,
when, having as , a member of Congress
from Ohio, the privilege of nominating a
youth from his Congressional District for
apiiointment as a cadet at the Lnited States
Military Academy at West Poin he exer
cised this right by procuring the warrant
for his youthful charge. .
SHERMAN AT WEST POINT.
Iii June, .1836, cadet Sherman eutered
the Academy, w here, with the exception
of the mouths of July and August, 1838,
which his class was ermitted to spend at
home on furlough, he remained pursuing
the course studies and military duties then
iu force, until the 30th of June, 1840, when
he graduated, standing sixth in the order
of general merit of his class of forty-two
nembers all that remained of a hundred
and forty who had entered the institution
with him. Among his class mates were
Stewart Vau Vliet, George H. Thompson,
Richard a Ewell, George W. Getty, Wil
liam Hays, Bushrod R. Johnsou,. and
Thomas Jordan. - ,. ,
. Here is a glimpse of his tastes and oc
cupations : -
TASTES AND OCCUPATIONS.
' Ths last encampment, take it all in all,
I think was the most pleasant one I have
ever spent, even to me, who did not par
ticipate in the dances and balls given every
week by the different classes; besides, the
duties were of altogether a different nature
from any of the previous ones, such as act
ing as officers upon guard and at artillery
drills, practicing at target firing with long
twenty-four and thirty-twos, mortars,' how
itzers, dec, as also cavalry exercise, which
has been introduced this year. As to
lording it over the plebes, to which you
referred, I had only one, whom I
made, of course tend to a plebe's duty,
such as bringing water, polieing the tent,
cleaning my gun and aeoutrements, and
the like, and repaid him in the usnal cheap
com advice; and since we have com
menced studying I made him bone
(study), and explain the difficult parts of
Algebra and the rrench grammar, since
he is a good one and a fine follow ; but
should he not carry himself straight, I
should have him found in January and
sent otli that lieing the usual way in such
cases, and then take his bed, table and
chair, to pay for the christmas spree.
THE TITLE TO PIT HOLE PROPERTY.
r Pit Hole seems to be in a bad way as to
Al - A?i.l ' A 'iL . - 1 1 ,
me ti no to me grouna upon wnicn sue
stands. It seems that in 1836 a treaty
was made with the Indian chief, Cornplant-
er, by w hich he reserved the spot on w hich
Pit Hole stands, but afterward sold it for
1270 to some whitu speculator. Corn-
planter proceeded down to Pittsburg where
he found $200 of his money was counter
feit, and like a good Indian, he spent the
$70 and returned, demanded good money
for his counterfest or the surrender of the
title deeds. The deeds were given up on
the repayment of the $70; but in the
meantime the deeds had been recorded,
and the Indian, not knowing the effect of
that, did not take the precaution to get the
title transferred to him on the records,
and so the question now is how that diffi
culty is to be obviated. .
THE LAST ROMANTIC AFFAIR.
In a recent elopment from New York,
an editor describes the lady as fair, fat and
forty, one who led, the fashions, the tea
drinkings, the prayer meetings, and char
itable list, in her own little clique had a
fortune in her own right, and was thus an
independent woman ; also possessing sev
eral olive branches and a husband. She
met and loved a maker of pills, upon
whose young brow (according to novelists)
scarce nineteen summers had shone. She
therefore presented him with herself, her
forty winters, and some thousands of dol
lars in very hard cash, thus gilding the
pills for him to swallow. They have gone
over the seas. There was no pursuit, for
the grief-8trickan family have wisely re
solved to let them go their way, eventually
by far the greatest sunerers of all,

A RESTROSPECT.
From tbe London Anthenxum, September Smb..
A year a little year a?o. a imrt of
the British public was invited by its teach
ers to believe that the American civil war
was over. Ihe two great armies of the
North were said to be ruined. General
Grant, without a plan, but with a demor
alized mob of armed men, was pictured as
uounaenng in ine mud ol tne James River,
whence he would tind it hard to escaue
from Lee, even with the loss of his stors
and artillery. , General Sherman having
been withdrawn from his base bv Johnston
and being unable to hold Atlanta in the
face of Hood, was discribed as breaking up
his tamp and Hying towards the seaf in
the hope, unlikely to be fulfilled, of find
ing shelter from the enemy in his ships.
Men who felt no objections to the rise of
a slave empire, and women who admired
the chivalry of Preston Brooks, were incited
by their teachings to kill the fatted calf,
and subscribe to the Confederate Loan.
Some people did as they were told. Clubs
were jocose, and Chapel Court rejoised.
Money pored in, and the prospects of the
cotton loan improved. Yet to the soldiers
who paid a fair attention to events, it was
already clear that the South was broken,
and its submission was but a question of
detail and of days. Lee was locked fast in
Richmond, just as Floyd had been closed
iu Fort Donaldson, and Pemberton in
Vicksburg, with no avenue to escape left
open to him but such as led to capture
and defeat Sherman had split the Con
federacy into halves' seperating Lee from
his supplies and paralyzing Hood.
Of course the critics who pratted about
Grant being without a plan,'and 8herman
being drawn into a trap, knew little of these
great Captains; not even the facts of their
campaign during the current war. A sol
dier who had studied the strategy which
led to the capture of Donaldson and Vicks
burg would have found nothing to perplex
him in Grant's approaches towards Rich
mond. Ulysses Grant is a man of genius ;
a soldier of new ideas; one who will be
found to have contributed fresh materials
to the art of war. With him a siege is a
campaign. Instead of driving of the cov
eriug army from the fort or city, as old
rules insisted should be done, before com
mencing operations against it, Grant ma
neuvers to keep the covering army near
him, to throw it within the lines, to com-
Slit to take part in the defence, and to
1 when the beleaugured fortress falls.
This plan has the disadvantage of makino-
a siege appear long, perplexing critics , who
cannot see that the close of the siege is to
be, under this new system, the close of the
campaign.
At Donaldson, at Vickspunr. Grant's
plan was carried out; in each the coverin-
army fell with the fortress, and in each the
blow was final The fall of Fort Donald
son and its covering army put an end to
the war in Kentucky and Western Tennes
see ; the fall of Vicksburg and its covering
biujt ujrcuou tuo iivor jujssissippi, never to
be closed again by Southern guns. Each
campaign was final; not only sweeping
away the army in the field, together with
the stores, guns, clothing, and amunition,
but crushing in the catastrophe all sparks
of rebellious fire. Where Grant has been
it is found imposible to raise a second reb
el corps. The fighting spirit is subdued.
And that w hich had been done by Grant
in the states of Tennessee and Mississippi
was now being ' done by him on a large
scale and with a stronger enemy, in Vir
giniawas being done precisely in the
sanip manner, and w ith precisely the same
object. Grant had to w eaken the Confed
erate army, shut it up within the lines of
Richmond and Petersburg, and compel it
. i i . .. - ... .
to surrender wnen me capital feu.
Hence the battles he fought on his way
to York River; hence his refusal to assault
the lines on his approach. He was mak
ing a eampaign, not simply conducting a
siege. Davis had boasted that the war
could be maintained, in Virginia alone for
twenty years after Richmond fell ; but, like
many other critics; he made the mistake
of altogether misunderstanding Grant
This captain knew his object and the means
Dy wnicn ne could, obtain it Richmond
without Lee would have given him little:
Richmond falling with Lee would give
him everything he wanted victory, union,
ptiace. In spite of all military critics, bis
plans were crowned with magnificent
success. The war was finished at a blow,
and the surrender of Pemberton was ius-
tinea in me surrender ot .Lee.
Sherman, when we came to know him
at all, was in some respects better compre
hended by the critics than Grant had been.
After Savaunah fell into his hands, all non
sense about his being drawn from his base
and flying to hit ships died out among us.
The Horse Guard bagan to study his re
markable march; and the Duke of Cam
bridge went to preside at a meeting of the
Unted Services to hear an explanation of
in detail From that day forward,
simply because we began to know him.
Sherman became our hero of the war.
A HEAVENLY CONCERT.
There is n preparation a grand concert of
music, which will infinitely surpass those of
earth. None but performers will be admitted
there, and none shall unite in that concert who
have not learned the song of Moses and the
Lamb. Instead of an orchestra of sixty per
formers, unnumbered millions with golden
harps will join the grand chorus, and the thun
dering notes of the cherubim and seraphim will
break forth in a strain that shall awaken the
universe. Miriam, the sweet songstress of la
rge, will rise ta sweeter, higher notes than
when she sang that song of deliverance on the
banks of the Red Sea. David will sweep his
golden lyre in strains to mortal eyes unknown.

VERY SHARP PRACTICE.
As au instance of sharp practice, it is related
that a merchant going to America aud back
went to an insurance office and wished to insure
separately 1000 cigars, valued at $100, against
loss by fire or water. The insurance was agreed
to. After the elapse of six months he made
hia appearance at the insurance office and de
manded hia money, as the cigars had been all
burned. "But not onboard the vessel sir,"
said the secretary, for she is in dock now."
"Yes, on board tbe vessel. I smoked them, and
therefore burned them all myself; and the in
surance says against tire." The secretary waa
taken aback, and had nothing to say, so the
merchant said he would call the next day for
his money. Ths next day he called, but was
met by the solicitor of the company,, who told
him if he did not relinquish his claim he would
be prosecuted as one who had knowingly and
willfully set dire to goods insured by the com
pany. The biter was bitten.

ALL THE COUNTRY'S WOES DEMOCRATIC.
1 ?t he f Rebellion was' Democratic It
broke out in Democratic. States, Itlsrat
hatched by Southern Democrats. It was
fostered by Northern Democrats. Demo
crata officered the Rebel army. ; Democrats
made up its rank arid file. Democrats fill
ed every suffice in the Confederate Govern
ment, froui the Presidency down to' the
clerkships and the messengerships. There
wasut a Republican with a shoulder-strap,
or a musket, or "a place," in the devilish
concern. ,In the Democratic City of
Washington, under the Democratic Ad
ministration of Buchanan, the Rebellion
was conspired and prepared. A Demo
cratic member of that Democratic Admin
istration stripped the North of arms, and
smuggled over to the South, and sent the
army where it would be unavailable, or
could be easily captured. A Democratic
member of that same Democratic Admin
istration scattered the navy over the world
so that it could not be used on the Rebel
seaboard. A Democratic Secretary of the
Treasury plundered his trust to. supply
the Rebellion with money. A Democrat
ic President, entreated to do something
to save the nation, refused, declaring and
arguing that the Government could not
constitutionally defend itself,, and he sat
sullenly down, like the Democrat and trai
tor that he was, and : allowed the nation's
arsenals to be plundered, and the nation's
ships, navy-yards and fortresses to be siez
edT and the rebel armies to be organized,
without lifting a finger to prevent Dem
ocrats throughout every Northern and
Western State applauded tbe - conduct of
their Democratic President adoptecland
defended his Democratic doctrine, that the
Government has no right to apply force to
suppress a rebellion and, from the word
"go,n politically and personally opposed
every legislative, financial, military "and
moral measure taken to speedily and suc
cessfully prosecute tbe war, and save the
nation's-life. The Country's past and
present woes are Democratic all and eve
ry one of them, without one solitary excep
tion. This truth, as of the GospeL was
thus uttered by a Western orator: "
"Let Democratic journals and orators
howl over the debt ami taxes their war has
brought They but magnify their own
sins. Every dollar of debit is a Democrat
ic legacy. Every tax is a Democratic
gift Every government stamp is a Dem
ocratic stickiug-plaster. Every person in
the United States drinks in Democracy in
his tea, his coffee and his whisky, and in
the sguar wherewith he sweetens ihem.
Each ingredient pays its quota for the cost
of Democracy to the country. The smo
ker inhales Democracy. The laboring man
gives about one hour's labor every day to
pay for Democracy. The capitalist pay
one tenth of his income for the cost of the
Democratic party. Every transfer of prop
erty is saddled with the Democratic bur
den. Before he is be-rotten. the ehiU i
subject to the Democratic tax. From th
cradle to the grave he is never free from
it The funeral mourning must first pay
the penalty of Democratic rule, and a por
tion of that which he leaves behind must
go into this Democratic vortex. Genera
tion after generation Tvill carry this Dem
ocratic burden from birth to death.- But
for the Democratic party, the hundreds of
thousands of young men whose bones are
strewn over the South would be product
ive laborers and the support and comfort
ot tamuies now desolate. JNo one can at
tempt to deny this indictment No one
can pretend that the Democratic party had
any cause ior reDeliion. x et it has the
effronty to cry over the burdens of taxa
tion. As the father of the Democratic
party, when he had stripped Job of fam
ily and possessions, charged it to hia own
sins, and sought to draw him from his in-
teSTltv 80 ti Democratic sons now come
forward with equal effrontery and charge

ABRAHAM LINCOLN IN THE FUTURE.
And surely some hundred years hence,
when the staid and schollarly. disciples of
the historic Muse bring their grave eyes
to scan and their brief tape lines to meas
ure the altitute and attitude, properties and
proportions of our deceased Chief Magis
trate, their surprise taking them to behis
torians of the present stripe will be in
tense beyond expressions. It has been for
centuries the tradition of their tribe to
model every public character after the ityle
of the heroic antique. Their nation-founders,
warriors and law-makers have been
invariably clad in flowing togas, crowned
with laurel or oak wreaths, and carrying
papyrus roll or the batons of empire in
their outstretched hands. How can we so
educated these poor, dwarfed ransackers
of the past, who have always regarded
greatuess in this illusory aspect ever he
brought to comprehend the creniua of
character so externally uncouth, so nathet-
ically simple, sounfathomably penetrating,
av irrcaviuMj uu yet so lrresisuoie, so biz
arre, grotesque, droll wiae and perfectly
beneficient in all its developments as wit
that of the great original thinker and
statesman for whose death the whole land,
even in the midst of victories unparalled,
is toKiay arapea m mourning! It will
require an aitogetner new breed and school
of historians to begin doing justice to this-
type-man ot tne world s last political evan
gel. No ponderously eloquent George Ban
croft can properly rehearse those inimita
ble stories by which, in the light form of
allegory, our martyred President haa so
frequently and wisely decided the knotti
est controversies of his Cabinet, nor can
even the genius of a Washington Irving or
Edward Everett in some future age elecu
tionize into the formal dignity of a Creek
status the kindly but powerful face of Mr.
Lincoln, seamed in circles by humorous
thoughts, and furrowed crosswise by migh
ty anxieties. It wiU take a new school of
historians to do justice to this eccentric
addition to the worlds gallery of heroes;
for while other men as interesting and orig
inal may have held equal power previous
ly in other countries, it is only in the pres
ent age of steam, telegraphs and prying
newspapers reporters that a subject so em
inent, both by genius and position, could
have been placed under the eternal micro
