(From th« Nïtdha* ( Misa .) Courier.
A n officer of the late Confederate army,
died a prisoner at Camp Chase, being en
gaged at the time of his death to a South
ern lady. A letter came to his address a
few hours only after his doath, announc
ing her faithlessness to hor engagement,
which was aöswared by a friend of the
deceased soldier, (Col. H., a fellow -pris
oner,) in the following scathing lines, to
wit:
Your letter came, but- cam« too late.
For Heaven had claimed it« own ;
Ah! Huddcn change** from prison bars,
Onto th« great white throne ;
And yet, I think he would hare stayed
For one more day of pain,
Could ha have read M ima tardy word«,
Which you have mini in vain.
Why did yon wait, fair lady, through
So many a weary hour?
Had you other lovers with you in
'i'hat silken daily bower?
Did others bow betöre your eharmN
And twine bright «arlatid» th«r,..
And yet I ween in all that throng,
Uta spirit had no fear.
I wish that you were by roe now.
As I draw the sheet aside,
To nee how pure the look be wore,
Awhile before he died;
Vet the sorrow that you gave him still,
Has left its weary trace.
And a meek and xaintly sadness dwellt
Upon that pallid face.
"Her love," he said, "would change for me,
The winter's cold to spring
Ah! trust of thoughtless maiden's love!
Thou art a bitter thing,
Kor when these vales in May onee more,
With fragrant blooms shall wave,
The northern violetn shall blow,
Above bis bumble grave.
Tour (|ole of scanty words had been
But one store pang to bear,
Though to the last be kissed with lore,
This tress of your soft hair—
f did not put it where he said,
{'or when the angels come,
t would not have them find the sign,
Of falsehood in his tomb.
f've read your letters, and I know
The wiles that you nave wrought,
To win that noble heart of his,
And gained It, fearful thought!
What lavish wealth uten sometimes give,
For a trifle, light and small,
What manly form» are often held
In folly's tlimsy thrall.
You shall not pity him, for now
He's past your hope and fear,
Altho' i wish that you could stand
With me beside bis bier ;
Still t forgive you—Heaven knows,
For mercy you'll have need,
Hince God Dis awful judgment sends
On each unworthy deed.
To. night the cold whistles by
As I my vigils keep,
Within the prison dead house, where
Few mourners come to weep.
A rude plank coffin holds him now.
Yet duath gives always grace,
And I had rather see him thus,
Than clasped in your embrace.
To-night your rooms are very gay,
With wit, and wine ana song.
And you're smiling just as if
ïou never dUl a wrong;
Your hand so ntir, th«t none would thiol.
It penned these words of pain,
Your skin so white—would God your soul
Wer» half s» free of staia.
I'd rather b" this dear, dear friend,
Than you in all your glee,
For yon are held in grievous bonds,
While, he's forever free.
Whohi fierve we in this life, we serve
In that which is to come,
He chose his way—you >ours, let God
Pronounce the fitting doom.
Strategy .—A young lady was
addressed by a youog man who,
though agreeable to her ; was disliked
by her father. Of course he could not
consent to the Union and she deter
mined to elope. The night was fixed,
the hour came, he placed the ladder
to the window, and in a few minutes
she was in his arms. They mounted
a double horse, and were soon some
distance Irom the house. After a
while the lady broke the silence by
saying. "Well you see what a proof
1 have given you of my affection ; I
hope you will make me a good hus
band." He was a surly fellow and
gruffly answered : "perhaps I may
and perhaps not." She made no re
ply, but after a silence of some min
utes she suddenly exclaimed. "Oh
what shall I do ; 1 left my money be
hind me in my room." "Then," said
he, "we must go back and fetch it."
They were soon again at the house,
and the ladder remounted, while the
ill-natured lover waited below. But
she delayed to come, and he goutly
called : "Are you coming ?" she
looked out the window and said "Per
haps I may and perhups not;" then
shut down the window and left him
to return upon the doubla horse alone.
Was not that a happy thought on
the lady's part—a famous joke.
Hon. Jamks G. Tauakerko .—We
clip the following from the Washing
ton Republican :
Among the most favorably spoken
of in connection with the Governorship
of the State of Louisiana by the Re
publican party, may be mentioned
"the old roan eloquent," the Hon.
James G. Taliaferro, whose memora
ble protest against the ordinance of se
cession, bearing the classic impress oi
the polite and erudite scholar, and
stamped with his own peculiar and
characteristic statesmanship, found its
way, as have many drippings from
his pen, into the first Journals of the
British metropolis.
A Nick Placi .—Among the rults
at the hotel in the "digging," at
lieeves Itiver, are the following :
Lodgers inside arise at 5 a. m .: in
the barn, at 0 o'clock, each man
»weepi up hi# own bed ; no quartz
