Yesterday uftoruoon, Mr. Poniofoy l?tt the city, to fill engagements oh the stump iu tne interior, and has played us a uieo trick. Finding a returned soldier ou thc street, with au old hand-organ, oh which ho pays ton dollars a year license, which goes to. tho support of the bondholders, he hired,him to come to thc office Of thc Democrat, and, from l o'clock till 4 every afternoon, play "Dixie!" And j hero ho is, under our window. . We like it, biit the editors of thc *S'im are out raged! One of them says it is a d?d nuisance! Another says it is damuuble! Ami there ho sits and grinds. "Oh! 1 wish I was in Dixie? ?'Way duwn South in Dixiu" hour aftor hour. Thc man won't move; he says Pomoroy hired him by thc week. Thc Sun folks don't like it. Passers-by wonder why in thuudor ho don't change his tune! One- man, front Goshon, Orange County, stood there an hour, to-day, waiting to hoar thc next tune. But no other tune comes out the horrid instrument. And there ho sits, grind ing: "Way down South in Dixie? Ohl 1 wish 1 whsin Dixie!" Yesterday, Pomcroy had a row about the matter. A radical, who had offices close by, came down, and ordered the soldier to more on ! "Can't do it," replied the cripple. "Why?" "Cause I'm hired to stay hero, on these steps, under this window, aud play this 'ere ttiuc IV "Well I'll see, and hp-stairs came thc excited radical. He raved and swore?threat ened arrest and all sorts of trouble. "Can't help it." said Pomcroy; "that man was a soldier?ho fought, he saved his country ?he pays ten dollars a year to grind his machine?I have hired him for thc season, aud I shall have him play that samo tune day after day, to remind thc working men thai '?Way down South in Dixie, are a lot of niggc?-s, scalawags aud carpet baggers they must support. And," said he, "If you touch that soldier, I'll mash your loyal head. I rent these premises; that sol dier has paid bis license; I pa}- for the music, and I'll have it just as I want it!" And the man is .-'ill grinding away "Way down Snuth iu Dixie 1" How longv he is to grind at that mill, God and Pomcroy only know. Hut it's a funny idea, compelling us to sit here hour al'ter hour to listen to that soldier grinding out of hlU tcu-dollar-licenso organ "Way down South in Dixie!'' We tried to coax him to change his tune, but he won't. He says that Pomcroy hirtjl him to grind it till his return. If tic wnl hasten back, we'll pay the bill and call it quits.

With all our souls, O land, we give The ehihl Thy luve bath snatched away: On earth we would not have him live, With us we would not have him stay? No : if a wish could call him back, We would not have nur darling son, tiroilgllt from his everlasting rest, Snatched from Iiis Hcuvcrily father's breast. Dil'.u.?On the 1st nil., the angel of death visited a domicile in thin vicinity ami captured for Heaven the most innocent little lamb the reader of this 110 Iice ever beheld. She was the daughter of Col. 1). H. llAKTON, and was just five years id' age on the tl:iy of her death. For one of her age she was unrivaled for loveli ness and intelligence. it is a well known fact thai death has no particu lar season for his captives, and at the same lime im poses upon humanity the most sorrowful ami griev ous ordeal through which this lite must pass. Vet whenever a call is made for an emblem of our nature ti<i chaste ami sweet as dear litt1? .IUI.I.A, whose silky tresses are how resting on her kind mother's most atfeetionale bosom in L'aradiso, where they are both enjoying the bliss and bright est hues of Heav en, and would not therefore exchange, situations with the noblest queen on earlh, we should submit to the same with resignation, rather than indulge in sadness. Had t li i.s beloved little one, who was the favorite of her evei'j' friend, been 11111113' degrees less at tractive, she would never have been forgotten. So, she assumed the name of one the Cllphoi)3'of whose name will forever ring in the ears ot her be reaved parent and taiii'ly. and fan to the brightest llumc tin; most minute spark of memory. 'Tis true?'tis sail, HtUo .If i.i a has parted lo meet them on earth no more: and therefore left a vacuum which can never again be tilled. Hut there is no position on ibis ruined earth that can lie compared with her character would never have excelled that of her il lustrious and noble mother. Xo, not even did our future present lo us such da\s as wo have enjoyed in the must joyful times of the pastj arid her charac ter passed in perfect purity through ihat ordeal in which every U3'? seeks a spot and evcr\' ear invites a scandal. When I compare all I have said, with the joyful meeting of this little seraph and her Heavenly mother, the former seems as but a chaos, -whilst Um?luttu* pictures to mine eye a moment which t will not here attempt to describe, for 1113 pen would be, l^v far. too inadequate lo %tlie grand and magnificent task. Yes. ihe\- hav ? met. and that ecstasy of bli.-s which ho one will ever expe rience short of Heaven, now thrills their every neiwe with extreme delight. Though dearest little JII 1,1 a never knew the eare of a dear mother, still every attention, thai kind ness mid affection could confer upon her, was be stowed 1>3- the htiliil of one who possesses every vir tue of female excellence.
