My thought* wander off frov the theme* 1
like noil
To Ibe col<l( lonely sentinel on lib dark post.
When cold Mow* the wintry wind user the
plain.
And cheerlessly drireth the pitiless rain,
I start from my wnrni bed and pillow of down
To think of the sentinel walking his round.
For faithful he stands, in the sunshine or
storut.
Through the darkness of atght, in the gl.tness
of morn ; <
All unsheltered front wind, or from rain, or |
from snow,
In silence and solitude watching the foe.
And though marshalled strong In embattled ]
array.
Our foes wait the moment to spring on their
p .*;
Yet our army and ualioti may sloop without
icar, ; 1
For liia signal will warn when their ewhorU 1
draw near. I
F.rr again unto slumber my eyelid* are given,
My hear! and my lips frame petitions to Heaven,
i
That the angels of God might the sentinel
keep
Who paiufiillyjwaichea while we owcetly sleep. ,
' <>, Thou whom the winds and the waters
obey,"
1 pray, "lull the storm, drire the dark clouds
away.
And to brighten his watch, and his lone
hours Wguile,
Heud the stars with their light and the tnoon
with her smile."
?'Aad his spirit to cheer, and his bosom to j
warm,
Give him memories dear, and sweet thoughts j
of home:
And may hope paint the future in colors so
bright
As to lighten about him the darkness of j
night."

"Receive for a truth this exact mathematical
maxim?Two pcraon* spend less I
than one. I see uiany bachelors who remain
sueh front altoer fright at the expensivcoe<a
of matrimony, and yet spend >
iuGnitcly more than a married man after
all. Thev lire dearlv at the cafes and
restaurants,
and at the theatre*. Havana
cigar a, amoked all day, are to tueir solitude
an extravagant necessity. Why do
they smoke? "To forget," tliey say.
Nothing can be more disastrous. We
abould never forget. Woe to him who
forgets evils, for he never seeks their
antidote. The man, the citiien who '
forgets, ruins not only himself but his !
country. A blessed thing it is to have
by your hearth stone a reliable and loving
woman, to whom you ean open your
heart, with whom you oan suffer. She
will prevent yon from either dreaming or
forgcttiug. Wc must all suffer, and love,
and think. In that ia the true life of
man. If tho wife has no female friends
whose rivalry incites her to extravagance
io dress, she spends almoet nothing
She reduce* *11 jour exponsee to ?uch a
degree tUat the formula given above ia
no longer correct. We must not lay
"two persons," but "four person* spend
leea tban one." 8he supports the two
obildren besides. When tbe Marriage is
judicious, entered into with forethought,
when the family does not increase too
rspidlj, tbe wife, far from being a hindrance
to liberty of action, is, on the
oontrary, its natural and essential element.

decisive than even the Northern acouuutt
htd led ut to believe. The information
received here it to the effect that on Sunday
last Geo. Crittenden, with eight
regiments of infantry and six pieces of
artillery, attacked tho enemy at a place
called Fishing Crock, near Somerset, iu
Southeastern Kentucky. The Federals
were under the command of Generals
Schcepf 6d Thomas, and were strongly
posted and entrenched behind Fishing
Creek. The result of the action was
disastrous to our arms. Gen. Zoilicoffer
was killad, and immediately on his fall,
our army was seised with a p:?uic and
was utterly routed, losing all its artillery,
baggage and camp equipage, and leaving
500 in killed and wounded on the
field. ^
At last accounts, Gen. Crittcudcn was
in full retreat on Knoxville. It ia not
stated whether or not the enemy was in
pursuit. w
Soincr?(t is situated in I'uluski county,
Ky., #nd is by an air line, about
eighty miles Northwest of Knoxville,
and by the road probably over a hundred.
The intervening country is
mountainous, and might offer serious
impediments to a nursuiug force.
The scene of the battle-field was North
of the Cumberland river, which would
interpose another obstacle to the advance
of tho enemy in case Gen. Crittenden
baa destroyed tho bridge over that at ream.
Of course it is to bo supposed that ho
has done so.
The route from Somerset to Knoxville,
Tcnn., docs not run through Cumberland
Gap or any of the aveuuea leading hito
Virginia.
Well 1>one.?Some days ago one of
the Tcx&i Hangers in Kentucky, whilst
out on a M-outing expedition, roJo suddenly
and unexpectedly into the presence
of a Federal picket. Keforc he had tiiuc
to cock his trusty rifle, the picket brought
his Minnie to bear on him, and ordered
him to surrender. The Ranger fell that
he was in a fix?he was fairly in for it,
and could not do anything more than to
throw down his gun with best grace possible.
Having done so, tbc picket stoop
ed to get it when, iu an instant tbo
n " - *
nanger a lusso wai thrown a^aixl him,
and be Felt liiinsclF dragged along as fast
as a horse at full gallop could carry him.
The picket yelled, but it was no use?
the Ranger bad him to bis heart's content,
the Ranger returned, got his own
and the picket's gun, and proceeded with
bis prisoner into cauip. It is not often
that a man escapes uuder such circumstances.
The Yankee was badly hurt in
the dragging, but it taught hiui a successful
lesson. When be gets loose, and

Once upon a time there lived an old

such a conversion, asked the gudc wife

Docoit in Warfare
Deceit in war, is as unjustifiable and
as unworthy, as it is under any other !
oircuinsUuces, and we would have our
Gcucruls (o wage an open, fair und man|
ly war, even if they are contvudiug
agaiust enemies who practice all maunsr I
of 1'uuic cunning and Grucian sublilty.
The late disaster in' Kentucky, in nil I
probability, was the result of a base
1 deception, practiced upon us by the
Federal Generals?and wo are not surprised
that a people, who have lived by
, craft and cheating, and who boast of
their abilitj in making fortunes by trick- f
cry, should practice double dealing and
treachery in war. May we never obtain
i a victory by fraud, und when wo suffer a
defeat, the result of treachery or niisad- |
( venture, and ti"t for want of valor or
manly fighting, wo should not bo discoui- I
tiled or east down. They who resort to j
deceit, confess themselves to be cowards,
and tbey are welcome to n victory
achieved by fraud and not by courage j
and valorous contest. The Great Alexander
ouco (undo the following answer to .
< some oue, who persuaded hiiu to surprise
ltarius in the night time, "No," |
said he, "it is not for such a man as 1
to *tcal a victory. 1 had rather laaieut
a defeat, thuu be ashamed of a victory."
