Tho Wtif In ibo Valley. The following is an extract from "Briok" Pomeroy's lettor from .Wiuohestcr, showing bow ofton and suddenly that town changed hands during tho war : ?Ono day it would bo in possossion of tho Northern troops. Tho next day theso would bo driven out, and the Southoruers hold tho placo. One day thoro wero livoly times at Winohoster. Tho Confederate flag had float ed for several days, and was floating at 4 o'clock in thc morning. With the early sun rise carno loDg lines of armed men on horse baok. Thore was a yell-a surpriso-down oamo tho red and white, nud at 7 o'clock up wont tho red, whito and bluo. Northern soldiers quartered themselves hero and there as i to romain. Soon there was to bo seen a lino of horsemen coming from tho foot of tho mountains away off to tho Southeast. And eoon another line of humanity was seen ad vancing towards the place from thc northeast. Very soon after thcro was a shook of con tending armies, and those who wero finding quarters and places io rest after tho victory of tho morning hastened out moro rapidly than they came. At 10 o'clock tho soldiers in bluo had left and the soldiers in gray took their places. Tho red, whito and bluo carno down from tho flag-staff over yonder, and again tho breeze kissed the red and tho whito, aa it floated in triumph wi. ?rc all might seo. At 2 o'clock in tho afternoon thoro was rallying, just back from where wo aro stand ing, a concentration of blue-olnd men on foot and on h orso. Then carnea fow thousand moro Northern troops from tho northwest. Thoro was a yell, a charge, a fight, and away baok to tho waters of tho Shenandoah were driven tho Confederates. And down came tho red and the whito, and up went the na tional emblem, tho flag of our country forev er. Thon thcro was rejoicing along tho Northern lines. Tho wounded were cared for. Those who wero hungry wore taking food, and the viotors thinkiug the war well-nigh over, when back to Winohcster, liko devils who had forgotton something, carno tho ar mies of gray whioh, but a few hours boforo had boon flying to tho east. They came as tho wav?s como when navies aro stranded j as tho winds como when forest are rended. They oamo on foot and on horse-rough and vapid riding mon, with that peculiar yell whioh Northorn troops knew meant business. They oamo in this street, and they came up that-through gardens, over fences, through nlleys, into and up streets, dbwn streets, and across streets. Blood ran liko water. Men who but an hour boforo were thinking of home, wero lying ull about hero breathing their last. Baok upon tho hill where wo stand, and back to tho fields beyond, wero again drivon the troops from tho North, leav ing dead and dying in tho streets of tho pince, and all about hero. Then down carno tho stars and stripes, and up, with a yell and a shout, and a loud huzza of triumph, went tho flag of tho Confederacy, whilo thc viotors made ready for supper. And this was ono day during tho war at Winohcster I Eighty-seven times during tho war did property obango hands in this place. It was Mdood the scone ^nd in thc track of contend ing armies, A few rod? bank of whero wo stund was a fort ocoupicd by General Milroy, who/ when ho took possession thereof, gave it OUt as- fr public ?announcement that he should romain in possession hore till hell frozo ovor, tho rebollion onded, and his*army mado rich from tho plunder. Ouo day the- General wanted a plaoo for headquarters, so be march ed in upon the finest residence in the oity. Thinking that to tho viotors bolong the spoils, lio boxed up tho pianos, tho books, tho pic tures, tho elegant bedsteads, chairs, sofas, nod all tho furniture ho could lay his hauds on, from gutter to- collar, and shipped the eamo to his home in tho North or elsewhere, at the expenso of tho Government. It did dot seem by this timo that ho intended to re main here till'tho pandemonium should be come a skati ng-pod. Hardly.bad ho dispatch ed tho property thus confiscated to a distant home, whon there eame along a few regiments of gray. And, -worst of all, they oamo in'tho sight. Some of tijera orawled up behind, nod roiohed this littlo hill, just in front of UB. A fow moro planted n battery with far reaohiog guns on tho spur of tho mountains over thoro to tho left. A fow moro took quar ters- just behind the fe?cos, tho houses, tho hedge?, and? tho trees> olear to tho very piok eta who were guarding Milroy, his fort, and his property.. Amt then thoso who hod takon these pla?oe remained, very quiet-- quiet ns cata about io spring dldf th?y' Ho. Not a whisper-?not a sound was heard. Tho fires nn<li lights of tho fort could be seen distinctly. Here and there-a littlo fire marked where ?entin?is and piokets-^ stood' guarding-those whv Biept, tu?t t/-?y might ii Ot bu Burpr?seif. Up goos o rookefc away up there to the righi I A ted, flory, bursting rockofc away, tip- towards-the clouds. In ? minute by tho watoh up goos another from ovor beyond the town. And before tho ono high rising from tho left hopd dlod'o?t, up wont another from beyond thot ]fUl$ hill justin frontibf us. So maah for. the aoottraoy of timekeepers, and .tho regularity bf military/ moYomotote whop positions are to bo taken? i ?noVthon thoro.was a ohorgo and a fight Tho shells from.th?se far-reaoliing guns drop {ieddown shout tho fort, into the fort, over t, and around ii-, bursting, and scattering death on all sides. And General Milroy went out before ho ox pee tod, to. Ho followed to JL|l.U?J.J? JL -H U AL.,lt'g....UJJllilLJl?t??J?lL^ Vrard Harper's Korry tho pianos and furniture jdo had saut forward. And ouoo moro tho gray-coated battlers for their homes took pos session of Winohestor. But tho story of tho fighting, the battles, and tho changing of hands hero would ooou py pago after pago, so we will not endeavor to ro?ate furthor. Just in front of us is a pile of bricks and stones thrown into acollar; wCjjds growing here and thoro, marking tho spot where once was thc abodo of wealth. This was "Selma," now a placo o? ruins. Looking down upon this pilo of deon's, rain washed and storm-beaten, ono would hardly imagino that but a fow years agohcro was the finest residence in this part of tho country. That hore stood a magnificent mansion whoro night after a night wealth and fashion did congregate j lamps illuminating parlor, draw ing room, and library, as the wit, v;oalth, and worth of the place boro assembled, onjoying themselves at whist parties, listening to mu si?, or tripping their feet as do merry, light hearted dancers. You havo edi \oard of Slidell and Mason, the Southern Senators, who went abroad du ring tho war. Well, this is whero Mason lived. Whoo the Northern troops took pos session and learned that this was Mason's house; that that was his ico-houso; that his kitohcn was just ovor there, and that his carrin go-houso was ju ot ovor yonder, they mudo Bhort work of "Selma." They entered into and took possession at once. What was worth stealing thoy stole. What was worth sending homo they sent ; and to take rovonge upon Southern mou thoy loft not so muoh as ono foot of wall upon tho other. We found hore a few old boots and old boot-soles, warp ed, twisted, and dried from exposure ; pioces of glass, china-ware, and a few necks and bottoms of ohampagno bottles; and kicking among tho rubbish wo fouud an old spoon, indicating, co matter who might have been hero, Butler was not 1 THE POETRY OF DIRT.-A writer in Good IJealth says : Old Dr. Cooper, of South Caro lina, used to say to his students, "Don't, be afraid of n little dirt, young gentlemen. What is dirt ? Why, nothing at all offensive, when chemically vie? ed. Bub a little alkali upon that 'dirty grosso spot' ou your coat, and it undergoes a chemical chango, and be comes soap. Now, rub it with a little water, and it disappears ; it is neither grease, soap, water, nor dirt. That is not a very odorous pilo of dirt you observe th ojo. Well, scat ter a little gypsum over it, and it is no longer dirt. Everything you call dirt is worthy of notice, os students of chemistry. Analyse it. ! It will separate into very olean clemens. Dirt makes corn, corn makes bread and meat, and thoymako a very swoetjroung lady thnt I saw ono of you kissing last night.' So, after all, you wero kissing dirt, particu larly if sho whitens her skin with chalk, or Fuller's earth. There is no telling, young gentlemen, what is dirt."
