LIFE'S INCONGRUITY.
The following beautiful poem by Lt
Egbert Phelps, is thus spoken of by the
Home Journal:
"The degree to which the melodies
are perfected, and the beauty of meta
phor and rhythm, are more like the finish-
ed work of a classic poet than the inspi- j
ration of an impulsive soldier. It is an !
exquisite gem, and though we never be
fore heard of the author, we are very
M he is not only a soldier, but the tru-
at
est of poets:
Green grows the laurel on the bank.
Dark waves the pine upon the hill,
Green hangs the lichen, cold and dark,
Dark springs the heart.'-ease by tho rill ;
Age mos?es clamber ever bright.
Pale is the water lily's bloom ;
Thus life still courts the sha.les of night,
And Beauty h vers o'er tho tomb.
So, all through life, incongruous hue
Each object wears from childhood down,
The evanescent heaven's blue.
The all-enduring sober brown ;
Our brightest dreams tuo quickly die,
And griefe are green that should be old,
And joys that sparkle to tte eye
Are like a tale that's quickly told.
And yet 'tis but the golden meau
That checks our lives' unsteady flow,
God's counterbalance thrown between.
To poiso the scale 'twixt joy and wue I
And better so, for wen the bowl
Too freely to the parched lip given.
Too much of grief would cru-h the soul,
Too moth of joy would wean from Ilcaven.
Qcerry. "Don't yu believe the
Lord is on our side?" said a strong rebel
to a not over-confident friend, some time
since. "Don't you think, now, the
Lord's on our side?'' " Well, y-e-e-s,"
responded the other; "y-e-e-s, but He's
acting mighty strange about it, mighty
strange!"
An Irish schoolmaster, who was in
structing some urchins in the rudiments
of 11 polite learning," and coming to the
word "posthumous," demanded the defi
nition from a small boy at the foot of the
class. The definition was not forthcom
ing at the customary preliminary head
scratching, and the master growing im
patient, exclaimed, "Och, ye spalpeen,
don't you know that the posthumous
works of a man are rthe books he writes
afther he's deadl
Acknowledging an Obligation. Lt.
J , late of the Sixteenth New York
Regiment, was, a few days ago, walking
down Main street, Utica, when he was
accosted by a fellow, half soldier and
half beggar, with a most reverential
military salute.
"God bless yon honor," said the
mnn. whose accent betrayed him to be
Irish, " and long life to you."
"How do you know me?" said the
Lieutenant
" Is it how do I know yer honor?" re
plied Pat ,; Good right, sure, I have to
know the man who saved my life in bat
tle."
The Lieutenant, highly gratified at
thi3 tribute of his valor, slid a fifty-cent
bill into his hand, and asked him when.
" God bless your honor, and long life
to you, ' said the grateful veteran, " sure
it was at Antietam, when seeing your
honor run as fast as your legs could carry
you, from the rebels, I followed your lead,
and ran after you out of the way, where
by, under God, I saved my life. O, good
lack to your honor, 1 never will forget
you." Pougkkeepsie Press.
Unsuccessful in this Life. I confess
that increasing years bring with them
an increasing respect for those who do
nOl BUCCCed 111 lll'e, aa rinnc ntnao
commonly used. Heaven is said to be a
place for those who have not succeeded
upon earth; and it is surely trilte that
celestial graces do not best thrive and
bloom ia the hot blaze of worldly pros
perity. Ill-success sometimes arises
from superabundance of qualities in
themselves good, from a conscience too
sensitive, a taste too fastidious, a self
forgetfulness too romantic, a modesty
too retiring. I will not go so far as to
say, with a living poet, that " the world
knows nothing of its greatest men;" but
there are forms of greatness, or at least
excellence, that die and make no sign ;
there are martyrs that miss the palm
but not the stake ; there are heroes with
out the laurel, and conquerors without
the triumph.
One Reason why Rosecrans was Re
moved. When Stanton, the Secretary of
War, made his late rapid trip from
Washington to Louisville the following
incident took place at night, on one of
the Indiana railroads : The train on
which Stanton was traveling was switch
ed off to allow another to pass. The
Secretary was indignant at the delay,
and slipped out into the mud, which ex
aspearted him more, and taking the con
ductor by the breast he shook htm and
demanded his reasons for stopping. The
Western man did not understand that
way of asking a question, so he drew
back a heavy wire bound lamp and
threatened to demolish the Secretary if
he did not let go. One of Stanton's
clerks stepped up and informed the con
ductor that the great man he used so un
ceremoniously was the Secretary of War,
expecting to see him sink into the
ground after such an announcement
But the conductor replied that he dicft
care a fig. A tall, big-boned Hoosier
brakesman hearing tie contention, and
fearing his chief, the conductor, would
need help, stepped up and said :
ime btanton 7
Are you the SecreTarv 6t TV at r
"Yes !
"Well, stranger,' , replied the brakes
man, " if you had been in such a hurry
to reinforce Kosecrans when yon knew
he was overwhelmed by numbers as you
are to reach Louisville, the tGeneral
would not have been checked at Chica
mauga." The Secretary rushed into his car, and
being a man of smajl things, he remov
ed Rosecrans to be revenged on the
brakesman. Cincinnati Telegraph.

The river continues to rise steadily,

At Cincinnati the river continues to
rise, with 13$ feet in the channel at noon
yesterday.
Yesterday was another dull day on the
revee, with but few arrivals.
The big Commercial came down on
Tuesday night with a partial load, and
refused freight all along. She took ten
or twelve tons at this point, and would
fill up below.
The admirable little May Duke arriv
ed yesterday morning from Cincinnati,
and left in a short time for Cairo.
ihe May Duke has been sold to pa
ties in Cincinnati for fo,U00 cash, the
cheapest boat sold this season. "Conse"
Miller, of the Cincinnati Commercial,
represented Capt Josh. Throop, and we
are inclined to think he not only sold
the boat bat also sold Capt Josh. The
latter promises to get even with him at
Christmas.
The elaborate Armada left yesterday
afternoon with a stavingly trip. Fred.
Huston is again at his post and looks as
rubicund and jolly as ever.

officers.
The high-headed Charley Bowen will
be the regular packet for Cairo at noan

soul, will set a sumptuous dinner for his
guests, and his handsome clerk will see
that shippers and travelers are made
comfortable and ensy.
The big Grey Eagle arrived at seven
o'clock last night, and reports plenty of
water coming. She returned to Louis
ville about midnight
The Louisville Journal of yesterday
says :
The river is rising fast at this point,
and has risen 12 inches during the last
24 honrs. There is now 4 feet 10 inches
in the canal, and 2 feet 10 inches in the

The Sir John Thomas McCombs has

Major Geo. A. Williams is fitting out
the office of the Tarascon in a style com
mensurate with the elegance of that
splendid steamer.
Major Williams is to be the chief clerk
of the Tarascon, and no one knows bet
ter than he how to keep both books and
office just right
The Missouri Dimocrat of yesteaday,
says the river was stationary during the
past 24 hours. To Cairo there is 6 feet
on the worst bars, except Crawfords's
the depth there being 5 j feet, according
to the latest arrived pilots. There is 7
feet below Cairo, at Point Pleasant.
The river above is slightly rising to
Keokuk, with five feet in the channel,
but above the lower rapids, on which the
water is 32 inches, it is now falling.
The Illinois is about stationary, with
30 inches from Peoria to the mouth.
The Missouri is falling, with 20 inches
at the mouth of the Gasconade, and 33
inches elsewhere.
There are several boats loading for
Louisville, Cincinnati and Pittsburg, a
thing unknown for some months past.
The boats now loading for the Ohio are
the Savanna, to leave this morning for
Pittsburg; White Rose, loading for the
same, and Citizen, for Cincinnati. The
two latter boats have just withdrawn from
the Lower Mississippi trade, and the first
named from the Upper Mississippi. For
the Ohio a large amount of freight is of
fering, but no pasengers as yet
A Cairo letter of the 23d to the Demo
crat says :
The Gen. Anderson arrived from
Memphis at dark with 573 bales of cot
ton for Cincinnati. If she can obtain a
barge, she will proceed to that port; and
if not, she will probably- reship and re
turn to Memphis, unless news of a rise in
the Qhio should reach her in time.
