r IF I SHOULD DIE TO-WIOHT. It may not be amiss to f,ivc somo further information concerning Iio poem, If I should die to-night/ About fifteen years ago a poet whose name at present is unknown to us, but who is believed to Irive been a resident of IMnin Ictphia, published anonymously a touching little poem with the title in question. Our critical friend, Mr. A. 1). F. Randolph, who is himself an author and has the true poetio instinct, recognized its merit, and scissoring it from the columns of tho newspaper iu which it appeared, added it to a compilation of religious poems he was just theu sendiug to the press. Ilis little v'olumo appeared in 187d. Its appearance this ln.--t year, nsorigino'# in Mr. II. ltiilcr I niggard's novel 'Jess' excited considerable indignation in Hnglnnd. That author, at last advices, was at Cyprus collecting, it is supposed, the material fur another sensational story, ilis wife, in response to the public criticism, r^nde a somewhat lame explanation oi the circumstances in whichjthe poem reached I,-- i i 1 ? . m iiunvuuu. .is jnuiiFiicu in -jcss 11 issauiy mutilated, lo inert tlie supposed condition of the heroine, and hence some of the finest lines were omitted. It was at one time ascribed to llettry Ward lleecher, hut this lias been authoritvirely denied by his family. We have an early newspaper eopy which wo Rive to our readers, it is cuiincutly worthy of preservation : If 1 should die t l-night My friends would look upon my quiet face, lie fore they laid it in its rcstiug place, Aud deem that death had left it almost fair *, And, flaying snow-white, flowers against my hair, Would smooth it down with tearful tenderness, A?d fold my hands with liugeriug caress ? 1'oOr hands, so empty and so cold to-night. If 1 should die to-night My friends would call to mind, with loving thought Sou c kindly deed these icy hands had wrought, Some gentle word the frozen lips had said, Krrauds on which the willing feet had sped ; The memory of my selfishness and pride, My hasty words, would all be put aside, Aud so i sh iuM be loved and mourned to-night. , If I should die to-night liven hearts estranged would turn once more to nie, llccallitig other days remorsefully ; The eyes that chill me with averted glance Would look upon me as of yore, perchance, And soften, in the old, familiar way, For who could war with dumb unconscious clay ? So 1 might rest, forgiven of all, to-night. Oh, Friends ! 1 pray to-night. Keep not your kisses for my dead, cold brow. Tins way is lonely, lei mo feel them now; Think gently of me } 1 am travel-worn} My faltering feet are pierced with many a thorn} Forgive, oh, hearts estranged, forgive, I plead ; Wheu dreamless rest is mine, 1 shall not uecd The tenderness for which 1 long to-night. "RECOLLECTIONS'* or TIIK Mc K I 8 81 0 K R A NO B H9 1JV A MKMDKU. Xff. 14. ; As our \iu? ot' skirmishers advanced on Williamsbnrg ou the morning of Otli of Sept. G2, the fog was so dense that you could not ecc distinctly 00 yards ahead of you. In lront stood a negro cabin in the yard of which could be seen persons moving about. A Lieutenant in Company C called out, *lf you fire that cannon here I'll not leave a greasy spot where your'e standing.' It proved to be some little negro.qi ifV? ,l>ad climbed iuto nn old wagon standing in the yard. They look to their heels and left. After riUkc Williamsburg raid we remained several days at our camp near Dispatch Station. \Ve rode the captured horses on duty and gave our own horses a chance to recruit. On the "7th of Sept. 'ij'J another Conscript law was passed, or, in other words, the first one ?;i? so itinrnuvu ad 10 cat! inso service wen up to ">0 jears of ago. lly this means use was foutul for all the cnpulred stock that were fit for duty to mount men who were unable to furnish themselves horses fit for service. Several citizens of Virginia enlisted in our command. These arc some of the cases to which i have already referred as the abominable ctTcct of the Conscript law, and which was the means of implanting discord among the troops. None of llictn were really fit for service, yet they addcl to the numerical value of our command, and thus compelled it to perform more tuan iisyro ruli share of duty. I can't remember but two of them in the Company that ever done any duty?Joe Bell and old man Dew, both Virginians. Kill was an Irishman and had belonged to a Virginia command but was discharged for some disability. OKI man Dew was a kind of clown and kept up his fun alt the time. He was a vulgar old piece. Speaking of these reminds 111c of an incident that tiok place in August '03 while we were camped near Doar Swamp. An old man belonging to Company C. (perhaps he was a * substitute) came past where we were eating dinner. He had a lung stick and was using it in both hands. Joe Leech said 'you've got it, have you?' 'Cot what?' was his reply. 'Got what you went after.' Ain't been after anything yet. Joe said, 'I thought you'd been getting out some fuilough timber.' To this his reply was more forcible than elegant. About the last of September '02, we moved our camp down Chickahominy to Forge mill, or Providence Forge, as the place was known by both names. We were now in a fine fertile country, plenty of clover, hay, etc., for our stock. We took quarters in the Came3 house nud here we expected to spend the winter. Wc stayed there until nbout the first of November, when we recrossed tlw creek and went back towards Tallysville, about 1 miles, to a churcli called Hopewell, I think. At C'nme's place nor this camp did we keep our army style of encampment. The men threw up such temporary cabins and huts as seemed best adapted to their comfort. The Colonel made his headquarters about a quarter of a mile oil, in a house. Here our commissary stores were deposited and a guard was kept on duty nil tho time. A postsd guard was kept on duty at the encampment all the time. The regular guard-mounting and guardhouse formalities were discontinued. It was at this camp we were staying when Lamartine I'cake and Tillman Mil wood were killed by the Federal raiders, the circumstances of which were about as follows : We had three principal picket posts in front, one at Iiiascond bridge, James Gate and Tabernacle church. These posts were about 10 miles in front of our cuuip. A detail of from 10 to 15 men were kept on duty at each of these pests. This line of potts had besu lel4 I ( up for n good while Without uny tuuoytnct J t from the enemy. The uicn begin to feel com- i j paratively secure. The j ickets tvcrc instruc- t ted in case of nn alarm to report (o 0;]l?r i pickets on the line. The Federal scou(< id'f > spies had located our posts nnd knew how to t surprise any of the posts. They made a dash c on the centre post at Jame's gate nnd captured i nnd routed the detail there and pressing on n with all possible speed they managed to fail I into the roa I in rear of and between picket ( headquarters of (he DiaScond detail and camp, tl thus completely cutting off all cbances of cs- I cape for our men. .Moat if not all tlio tnen on n the Diascoud post were from tho ' McKissick s Rangers.' I'ieket headquarters were in a,.little c log cabin with nu opening of an aore or two of Q land nrouud it. Part of the men were on post * about balf a mile <1!. I.amnrtine Pcake and .f Thos. Rodgcr3 had gone to get some horse feed t and the rest were in the little log cabin afore- t said. Tho Federals were around the house be-' fore tho inmates were nwaro of it. 3oiW of t the men were asleep. As Tillman Milwood t jumped out to run ofT ho was shot down. Some 1 got nway nnd the rest were captured. The S enemy moved on hastily toward the picket post, f and mot Lainartiuo l'eake and Thus, ltodgors < who were returning with sumo rodder for tlioir t stock. They hail hear J tho firing and wore suspicious that something was wrong. Coining suddenly upon them in the road they wheeled * their horses and attempted to escape. Thorn, jumped off and escaped into a thicket, Lamar- , tine was captured and re^ ort said that he was < shot iu cold blood and killed. Our men got it I this way, and I have good reason to think that , it was so, too. This impression incensed our ) men so that their indignation knew no hounds, ? An opportunity to avenge Lamar's death was * not long in presenting itself. At Olive Branch J Church, on the 7th of February, '03 tho op- ? portunc moment arrived. Eighty-four of our Cavalry, hacked by tho 5'Jtli Virginia Infantry, ' were called upon to re leent their pledges, j We met a force of bctwccu 200 and 300 Fod. < cral Cavalry at that time and place commanded t by Captain Faith, of 5th Fenn. Cavalry who, 1 it was alleged, had killed Lnmartinc. Meeting j tho enemy suddenly "Cal. Tabb, of tho 59th Virginia hastily formed his line without au ef- I fort to ooncoal his position, and this euabled 1 the Federal commander to halt his column behind a hill and protect them from the fire of tho Infantry. Nearly every man and horse on I the top of the hill and in sight of the Infantry were killed or wounded. Our cavalry line was formed in rear of the church (a brick structure) and parallel with tho road on which , the enemy were advancing. As soon as the In- 1 fantry had'eeosed firiug' we wcro ordered lo I charge. As tho line moved forward at the t gallop the cry was raised, 'now is tho time to t evcrage the death of Lnmar I'cakc'. With this spurs wcro plunged into tho sides of tho faith- ^ ;ul chargers who brought their riders into the ranks of the flying who were hewn from tneir saddles by the dexterous blows of 0 the Confederate cavaliers. In their rout the n enemy foWowod the gencial direction of the o road, though most of them were scattered c through the fields. At a narrow place in the j road a number of Yankees and horses were piled up and as John Faucctt, who e ns riding * a large bay horse that Mrs. Iticc had given (he ^ company al its formation, came upon them, the nurec iiiuue n spring nuu nnaeu lumseir on s tlic opposite side, tossing John on top of j the pile of yankces and horses. He dashed frantically through the line and led the way. c This horse was our greatest loss that evening. 4 The yankccsgot him, but we will make men' lion of him hereafter. From Olivo branch t church to 'six mile ordinary' (a distance of 3 < miles) it was a whipping race. 35 prisoners { and about as many horses, together with a lot ^ of arms was the result of the evening's work. About a dozen Federals were killed, and a ( great many horses were killed and wounded, so as to render them useless. At Williamsburg ( we had got a great inany improved arms and as a consequence our men were now equipped so t as to do good service. Most of them had im- j proveil army pistols and breech-loading carbines. In this raid the writer with several others was determined to arm himself com- c plctely nt the expense of the U. S., and dash- v ing upon an orderly sergeant, presented a six f shooter and ordered him to halt, surrender { and give up his arms. This he did instantly. t 11c had a fine sabre and belt, which he asked to retain?(hcabclt in particular?as it was the ' gift of his lady friend. 11c was told to give 1 his lady friend the writers respects and also .o 3 tell her that lie would take good care of it. s Morgan Leech had on the sabre and belt when 'J he was killed at Itiddles Shop, June 18, '01, and it may be the sabre and bolt got back to its original owner. a We are somewhat in advance of o ur work : From Hopewell Church we moved back to ('nines and camped near our old camp ground. ^ The Ciimes mansion was used as llegiuiontul i headquaitors, Commissary Department, &c. It was while we were at this camp that the battle of j Fredericksburg look place, Dec. 13, '02, in ( which tho immortal Stuart redeemed his pledge to "crowd'em with artillery.' It was also ' while we were hero that an election took place 1 for Clerk of the Court of Union County. The c narwlwIaIp<i \vt?r? r.int I O Mnlt looinV Charles Dolt, Esq., the latter had alieady lost j his leg and was at home. Capt. McKissick was rc-clected. About the first of JAn. '03 w? moved to Diascond bridge. A change had , been made at Brigade headquarters and Gen. Henry A. Wise was now our brigadier. At Diascond bridge we were reiaforced by the 09th Virginia Keg t., Infantry, Col. Tabb, and also a company of Artillery, together with .Major Kobinson s battalion of cavalry. Here we spent the remainder of the winter, with nothing to do but the regular routine of camp and picket duty, except the scouting, which foi ms an independent chapter. We were now prepared for any attack the enemy might choose to make on our encampment. Tho breastworks as well as an impassable stream in front rendered our position comparatively ~ secure. The enemy's scouts and raiders kept ' our piokots annoyed at regular intervals, and c frequently the command was ordered out at L the hour of midnight in the cold slcct or i enow, to re-establish our lino of defense. This 0 work was tho most unpleasant of ordinary j camp life. I remember one night in particular, that the co mjnny was sent to re-establish the liuo at Chickahomi ny church that had been broken by tho Federal raiders. The company v was halted near Diascond cross roads and a ?t detachment of seven men sent forward to as- h ^rUit^ .li oi^Ction/of u&tis. * The nigh #js dnYk i>Fc\nn# Ijie #.i^l l?!cw a per- ( >etual gale.

After boiling a uomcnt the infusion is allowed to stand ind 'sipe' for ten minutes, when it is trained, sweetened, and drunk while warm. Phis quantity is taken twice or three times l day.

Needles, tjhtts and Fish Qooks.?According to tho uiost rccc.it estimate, tbo present production of uccdlcs in llcdditch, Kugluud, is not less than 50,000,000 pel week, and as uiav inferrod from this enormous aggregate, machinery has boon brought to boar upon tho trade in a most extensive degree, nod with marked success. The pointing of the needles, one of the most delicato of all tho operations, is now almost exclusively douo by mucbinory, and so is the cutting, skimming, stamping eyeing, tempering,.counting, heading and tail- 1 ing, blueing, burnishing finishing assorting aud slicking. New and improved machines i* _lt ior an mcse processes nave uccn successfully introduced during the last twenty yogis or so, nod unlike tho experience of other trades, tho machine work about needles is not only cheaper but belter. Tho latest novelty, and one which is pronounced a succors, is tho 'grooving/ machine for qiakiog sewing machine needles tho old stamping process being thereby superseded. Work done by the 'grooving' machine is better and truer, besides being more economical. Tho old process of ether gilding has been almost entirely superseded by the nower aud improved method of electro gelding, lleddiicii is becoming a rival of Birmingham in the manufacture of pins, the ordinary ccimnon household pin bo:ng supplemented by shawl aud scarf pins, with glass and steel heads.

In the course of iho report Mr. Taylor said : 'I have, on several occasions, pointed out that the majority of the wen cugaged as rabbitcrs were making a very high rate of wages, and it is now reported that a number of skilled tradesmen have been known to abandon their ordinary pursuits, and take to rabbiting as a raoro lucrative occupation. However, is the thickly infested districts.' he adds, 'where labor is not scarce, the run o vners have rcoently reduced the rate of bonus j and lie thinks that 'this will result in belter work boing done, as the ineu will requiro to work moro vigorously to obtain good wages, and, consequently, a greater number of rabbits will be destroyed. Notwithstanding the immense number of rabbits which is at preseut beiug kil'cd, it is a matter for great regret that the prospects of eradicating the pest seem as remote as ever?the reports to hand showing that rabbits are slowly, but surely, makiug their way into the northern portion of the colony, and tho run owners in that locality must shortly expect to learn something of tho worry and expense attached to the work of rabbit des truction.'
