That Flower.
Though not a glance of those beaming eyes
Illumes my heart and bids mff live,
Still may I thy sacred office prize
While hope bids me love und liv*8.
" Token of Friendship" (?) how I.pr i ?c.! h cc,
Thou bast of my thoughts a double share,
And while, enraptured, I gaie on thee
I'll think pf ber who placod thee there.,. ?
Art thou a mess.igo from that noble heart
That ia life's weal or woe 1* fain would share.
Or art thou a sharp and cruel dart, '
Intended for my bosom hare ?
"Whatever thou^art I know, the haud
That placed thee, guileless, in mino.,
And that hand I would surely demand,
But would she ber claim resign.
.Perhaps net, for mine is a hr\rdcss fate,
Unshared by any. sbuiineTly all ;?
Dost thou thea deserve only my hate, '*
Art designed only to secure my fall ?
No, thou .art not a messenger sent,
Of love and peace my life to ches.:,
But art thou nu:love's.trusty agent*
Assuring my-heart a?3,:ust. defeat? '
Delusive uteara, thou ?rtxotlov??s self,'
But thou hast spread around my soul
A sweet enchantment,^ sweet relio",*
Thou messenger of my heart's idol.
Fair one?wt.nld I could share thy. lovo indeed!
Kui soon nibo a thc-uguQoss rcjver,
Aud dots not Miss-'s bosom bleed
To lon vc so cloar, so, fond a. lover."

Above the'bed^
W?ere sleeps fbi? dearest one among

Sweep gently o'er thc grassy moued,

Where my own loved and lost bath found
A dreamless pillow !
To sunbeams ! r i ye play upon

Thc above are the words of-tbat great and
good niau, tuat bravo and noble patriot, (yen
eral Robert E. Lee. Tho an? w?rds that
should Jail .with buroieg impress upon eyerv
true and patriotic heart. 'They.ar?; tho orh
cular words of a ?un who ha's shown to i he
_ world thc p'twer el greatness ..'mired b\ boo
est patriotism, fervent devotion tb bis coun
try, and a devout reliance upon (?od. in all his
? undertakings. They are Mle; words of a niau
who ha.> done more by hi.-i gairaniry and mi
itary prescience to defend thc South fruin th?*
Til?; Northmen than any other livinir man. Ja
short, thev arc words of a man who baa ra
lenti}* pursue?! the "cveif tenor o? his way?"
. in tito full discharge of ail Lis duties, without
murmarinir or wituout fault lindin^- wilb his
goverr,men*t and those who administer it.
For these reasons, wo repeat, toa*, all Gen.
Lee utters should bc received as tho oracles
of a great and good man. and should inspire :
every heart with the sentiments which art* j

If We arc true lo ourselves. t.?G ? aud to
posterity, there never was a truer.-sentiment J
uttered by monal man thau thc caption of j
this article. This Gen. Ceo know-, and every
sensible man must admit, whatever moy 1.4 I
the extent of oiir present reverses. Ono of {
the English Irrds once rema:ked, in the time j
of the revolution of our ibreCnbers, that
" three millions of people, determined to be
free, could never be conquered.'' Then with
how much more force does such a declaration
apply to eight millions of people struggling !
like we are in the same c^use ! History should
inspire every "heart with confidence, and
nerve every arm* with strength. The fr.te
winch awaits us in subjugation should enkin
dle in every bosom the fires of patriotism^ and
high resolves should ascend from every JS<>U!
that would speak, trumpest tonged, to thc
world our undying, our .-"Unflinching determi- ;
nation never to submit to the faul doteinatiou
of Yankee rule. ' . ' .
*. We must not, wo cannot bc subjugated."
These words should ring in eiWy ear liko tie j

in high Ide," which recently occurred tn
Washington C:ty, resulting in the death of j
the two arch fiends of thin revolution
It appears thal on tho evening?<?( the -Hrh,
Lincoln, much against his will, was per.sua- j
dtd'to visit the tueaCre in the Federal capita:,
where was to be represented a popular piece,
entitled " Our American Cousin." Ue ocen
pied as usual on such occasions a private box,
accompanied by his wile. Thc representation,
of tiie drama had hardly begun when a pistol
shot wa$ beard, but this noise created no stir
in toe large assemblage, and no excitement
?.as manifest until far above the buz and h nm
of rhe many-Voiced multitude, came the
SCreansS and cries ol' Mrs. Lincoln.*
Immediately n man jumped from tho box
in front of the foot .light* brandishing a dag
ger, and-exclaiming, M Ste semper tyrannic !
Virginia is ata-r?c(?.'" The crowd, ?a il
stricken with paralysis, offered no obstacle to
thc egre33 of the author of this doughty deed,
ind he escaped.
Great excitement prevailed when thc na
ture of thc catastrophe was understood. Lin
?olifwas ?hot through the bead, and survived
amil next d.iy.
About the same hour thia little dramatic
mectacloj not announced in ih'e bill, was ba
ng presented st. this theatre, a gentleman
called at the residence of Mr. Seward]; and
;aiied for th'?? right To?or?b'e Secretary. The
servant responding lu tho bell, stated that his
master wax sick, and had refused company.
Tiie gentleman persisted, statins that he had i
t prescription from an eminent physician of ;.
(Vashington. and must sec him.
' At this juncture Mr.?F. W. Seward -npear
id upon 1 be scene, and denied thc vi-*.to:- ad

He went with this Company to Virginia in June
I Sill,'nail thara served 'aitijiaUy ?ad efliciertfly
for nine m.'?.th--, evincing alwaysco'dness, hraye
ry, and toe highest st ? of duty, lu December
lSt31, thc disease, to willoh be tin olly ?eil a vie
tim, became so afflictiro thar, he was hoaorably'
e^charged from the army. Returning homo, he
remained in quietude for three months; hut dis
daming to ho inactive while his former comrades
were bearing tho boat and burdea of the (Jay, he
soon returned to tho ranks of tho army. In
March ISG'2, he re-enlisted iu bis old Company,
then under thc command of dipt. STUART HAR
RISON'. And now again he serged tivcvo months
in Virginia, honored bj- his officers and comrades,
and .-hcdrliii^ honor upon himself, his family, bis
native District. In Mareil "?S6-1, disease again
drove him from tho field of action. But after
threo or four months ropose he again rallied, an>!
once moro buckled on the armor, which during
two years of r.rrtm.us service, ho had preserved
bright and un tarnished. And j et once moro be
followed tb:/flag of tho' South; thia time for six
months. In June IStH, ho succumbed to bis old
and relentless disease, und was brought home to
?lid among those who lo vc J him aud those whom
ho loved.
In his death, thc 7th Regiment was do
prived of one of its mu.H useful members. He
was a bravo soldier, a trne patriot, aud a kind
und loving soi. Nor do his aurvivug fi iendH grieve
as tliose who uavo no hope. Fur some time bo
fore bis death, his mind had been directed to the
subject of religion. Death therefore found him
prepared. His faith in Christ, the Conqueror of
Dcaih, was strang and enduring. Haviug pa-'
tien?V endured tho trials, and heroically dis
charged thc duties, of sn eurtbly warfare, under
taken in behalf of his nfllic'cd country, he passod,
with victory over " tho last enemy," into the
Christiau Soldier's eternal rest.
As long as a grateful country shall road on her
Mil of worthies, thc record of those who died
that fhn mi^lit lire, so long will the rinmo of
i'll.KS D. Jonxsox be honored and lamented.
To bis ber. avod and mourning inothor, and bis
sou blul brother and sifiers. wo would say this:
What there bs ol' sipa ru tim is bat fur a while ; it
should reconcile cs lo tho grave that our greatest
