iekrtti. florin!. JEbxt Confederate Dead. ^,^om the broad and calm Potomac, To tho Rio Qrande's wares, . Have the brave and noble fallen, And the earth is strewn with graves. In the vale and oa the hill-side, Thro* tho woods and* by tho stream, . Has the martial pageant faded, Like the vision of ? dream. Where the reveille resounded, And the stirring call " to arm3," Nod tho downy Leads of clover To the wind's mesmeric charms; Where the heels of tramping squadrons Beat to dust the mountain pats, Hang the dew-drops' fragile crystals, From the slender stems of grass. Where the shock of meeting armies Roused the air in raging waves, . And with sad and hollow groaning, Echoed earth's deep hidden caves : Where the cries of crushed and dying Pierced the elemental strife, Where lay death is sick'ning horror *Neath the maddened rush of life? Quiet now reigns, sweet and pensive, Ail is hushed in dreamless rest, And the pitying arms of nature Hold her heroes on her breast. Shield them well, oh, tender mother, While the morn and evening breath Whispers us, the sad survivors, Of their victory, in death. What though no stately column Then cherished names may raise, To dim the eye and move the lip With gratitudo ind praise? The blue sky, hung with bannered clouds, Their solemn deme shall be; . All heaven's choiring winds shall chant The anthem of the free. Tho spring with vine-clad arms shall clasp, Their hillocked resting places, And summer roses droop above, With flush and dewy faces; Fairy daisies, rayed and crowned, shall spring, Like stars from ouflheir dust, And look to kindred stars on high With eye3 o:' patient trust. And vainly shall tho wilting lips Assail with envious dart, The fame of our heroic dead. Whose stronghold is the heart? G.'he nation's heart?not wholly crushed, Though each throb bo in pain ; For life and hope will still survive, Where love and faith remain. Gen. Longstreet and the Battle of the Wilderness, May 6,1864. The Old First Corps of tbe Army of ? Northern "Virginia had but little rest when there was any hard fighting to bo done. After the second Maryland cam? paign, we had been sent out to the Army Of Tennessee; our corps had maintained the high reputation of the "Virginia troops;" at the bloody battle of Chica :mauga the old Sharpsburg soubriquet was set aside, and Gen. Longstreet, no longer called the ""War Horse," was generally known among the men as the 'Old Bull of the Woods." Then came tho skirmish? es of "Le Noir's" and "Campbell's Sta? tions," the siege of Khoxville, and tho tor riblo winter of 1863?'64, in detsolate East Tennessee. Our men had borne, unmurmur'ngly, hardships greater than any to which even they had before been accustomed; they had not complained, although with insuffi? cient food, without blankets, with ragged clothing, and, too, often without shoes, they had tramped with bleeding feet for many a weary mile. On the march, and in bivouac, during tho freezing day and comfortless night, in hunger and in thirst, they had been sustained by the remem? brance of their dear Southern land. All things, however, have an end, and in the spring of 1864 wo joyfully roturned to Virginia. On tho 3d of Hay, 1864, we loft our camps, near Gorclensville, and on the night of the 5th out two divsions?Field's and Kershaw's?went into bivouac a few miles from tte Wilderness. By daybreak in the morning the troops were again in motion, and marching toward the field of battle! The Federal troops had made a fierce attack upon the right of Gen? eral Lee's lino, and had been repulsod.? Again they came on and in an increased force, until at last Heath's and Wilcox's divisions, in spite of their steady and de terirrined fighting, wcro driven back in confusion. "With a cheer, tho Federal troops pur.hed forward; our exhausted men could do no more; there seemed no hope of further successful resistance; but there was a cloud of dust on tho road, and General Longstreet, followed by his col? umn, came rapidly on. Kershaw's divi? sion was in advance: without halting, tbe men filed into line, and charged with a furious yell. Nothing could stand before them?they were insplr?d irith furious, unhesitating valor?the on30t of the enemy was checked, and the next moment they were being slowly driven back. Repeatedly did the Federal officers bring up their" shattered regiments, reinforcements were put in only to be speedily broken, and the arrival of Field's division and the magnificent body of men commanded by Gen. Robert Anderson, enabled Gen. Leo to re-establish his original line. We had lost heavily, many of our most gallant men had fallen; but the reverse of the early morning liad been retrieved, and our success was so far complete. It is well known that the section of country usually called tho "Wilderness" is covered with a dense growth of pines, the under growth of bus'ues and briars Doing so matted and tangled that .it is very difficult to force a way through' it, while at a distance of forty or fifty yards the form of a man could scarcely bo dis? tinguished by any but a quick-sighted ob? server. The Federals were now resting comparatively quiet, taking, perhaps, a long breath before "trying it on" again; but they were not to have it all their own way; and we, in turn, became the aggress? ors. Mahone's brigade, with, I think, two others, was ordered to move around and attack Grant's left; Generals Leo and Longstreet, lying on the ground near the plank road, quietly awaitod the result. The rapid firing quickly told us that the "boys"-wero at them, and before long a mounted officer rode up to announce the successful completion of the move? ment. Grant's left had been routed and driven back on the centre, and tho plan now was toraako a vigorous assault whilo the iron was hot, and finish tho work be? fore us. The whole of our corps was in readiness to move, and General Long street and staff rode down tho plank road, where a portion of tho corps was already formed in column, We had ridden but a short distance, when Lioutenant Colo nol G. M. S-, Assistant Adjutant Gen? eral of tho first army corps, joined us. LTo had accompanied the flanking par? ty, winning tho hearts of Mahone's brig? ade by an exhibition ofchivairousgallant? ry, akin to that which they havo shown on many a bloody field; and he now brought us the mostcncouragingaccounts of the position of affairs. Gen.. Jenkins, a noble son of South Carolina, an admi? rable officer and courteous gentleman, was also with us, and his face was. lit up with joy and confidence as he congratu? lated tho "old chief." It was now pro? posed to give three cheers for Gen. Long street; and Jenkins, fearing lest his men should appear to bo behind time, called out, "Why don't, you cheer, men ! Why don't you cheor!" The air fairly rang with lusty shouts; again and again tho men cheered, till voices wcro cracked and tears of exhaustion ran down many a dusty chook. Every heart was confident and gay?and so we moved forward. Suddenly tho snapping of a cap was hoard in tho woods, on our right, and then the report of a musket, sounding strangely sharp and clear. Instinctively we turned, and there in tho woods, with? in a few yards of us, was a long lino of uniformed men. There was no time for thought; another riflo shot was heard, and another, and another, without an in? stant's pause; the red firo flashed along tho entire lino, and a deadly volley was poured into us. It was unexpected as the crack of doom! Could it bo the ene? my, or was it our own men. None of us could toll! The troops were for a moment thrown into confusion, but they rallied immediately under tho exhortations of their officers. I see it as plainly now as if it was but yestoi day. f Gen. Longstreet, curbing his horse, which plunged with excitement, calm and inflexible as a statuo of bronze, his head ! turned defiantly towards the firing, like some old lion whom tho hunters had brought to bay; and Jenkins, waving his j hand to his men, whilo in loud, clear, j tones he cried, "Steady men ! for God's sake steady!" Poor fellow ! tho words were scarcely uttered, tho namo of his God was still upon his lips, when a bullet pierced his head, and rising convulsively in his 'stirrups, ho foil to the ground, mortally wounded. Now Longstreet reeled in his saddle; he was also woundad, and, it was feared, fa? tally. Tho firing had ceased as sudden? ly as it had begun. It was our own men who had done the harm. Jenkins, gallant-fellow, was beyond all earthly assistance, and it remained for us but to grieve for his loss.^ Longstreet was lying by a tree at tho sido of the road, the blood flowing with terrible rap? idity from his neck. General Field, the senior division commander, now assumed command, and kneeling by our beloved General received a few words of instruc? tion. The General grew rapidly weaker, but as conciousness gradually left him, ho still could summon up energy enough to say in deep and earnest tones: "Press them on, General Field; press them on, sir!" A litter was obtained, and Gener? al Longstreet was carried slowly to tho rear; his hat concealed his features, and tho men anxiously asked who was woun? ded? It was known too soon, and to honor their General, as they thought for the last time the men gavo a prolonged and enthu? siastic cheer. Tho General heard them; he could not be deaf to their voices, and it was a touching sight as ho slowly, faintly, raised his hat, showing, for a moment, that well known face, now so ghastly and pale. One incident particularly struck me. When the General was hit, a private soldier took his horso; ho mount? ed him, and fully equipped with rifle, with blanket and canteen, was now rid? ing behind tho litter. One of our cou? riers told him to dismount, and his reply was characistic: "No, sir-ree! Look hyar. man ! General Longstreet gave me this -hyar horse to mind, and all hell can't get him from me without his say-so." Nor shall I over forget the sad expres? sion of General Lee's face, when he, too, heard of our disaster; nor his gentle, sympathizing voice, as ha said, "I hope,! General, that you are not seriously hurt." At the time that Longstroet was dis? abled, a combined movement had been commenced which tho Federals could not then have well withstood ; hut new plans and deliberation became necessary, and fron ten minutes past twelve, the hour of tho accident, nothing of impor? tance was done?no advantago was gained. ? From tht MelropolitanRccord. T:rue Southern Feeling. There is no more contemptible sight on the lace of the earth than a man who is falso to his country. And depraved beyond all measure must be he who un blushingly proclaims himself ao in the face of uhe world. The Southorncr who can truly say, that during tho last four years., ho never felt flie first emotion of sympathy with the Confederate cause, that hi.'i heart throbbed cxultingly at the news o:.?a Southern victory, or sank at the rumors of a Federal triumph, is a man wo would not care to trust. He who could live in a struggle, see tho courage with which it was sustained and the sac? rifices unmurmingly endured, that it might prove successful, who could live amid the fluctuations of the war, mark the tide of success ebb and flow, sec socie? ty breaking up around him, feel the agi? tation and upheaval caused by the throes of the nation in its agony, and remain unmoved, his equanimity undisturbed, his pulsos even beat unaccelerated or un retardod, is a moral phenomena; or a man to be marked and avoided forever.?The veriest schoolboy as he pores over the pages of Greek and Eoman story, takes side unconsciously, and tho calm philo? sophic studont of history glows as he reads of some brave deed, or glorious struggle. Every ono who can remember for himself the absorbing interest with which ho followed tho course of this or that hero of antiquity, how real was his intoreut in Caesar, how genuine his sym? pathy lor Hannibal, \ ow glowing his ad? miration of Aristides. And aro the qualiti es wo admired in the men of old to oxcito no enthusiasm when found in our contemporaries 1 Are tho virtues that challenge our rev crenco in the patriots of other times and other lands, to be sneered at when illus? trated in tho lives and deeds of our fellow countrymen 1 "We say, without fear of contradiction, that the Southern man who took r o part in the glorious strugglo of his section, who felt no interest in the result, and no prido in the noble qualities displayed by his countrymen, would nov er hare shouldered his musket in the Ecvolution, never have starved with Ma-; rion, nor triumphed with Gates. Such a man would havo hounded Washington to death had ho been unsuccessful, he would have been a parasite to LTowo and a lickspittle to Cornwallis, ho would have blazoied forth his "loyalty" to his King, by denouncing his countrymen as rebels, and iroved his fealty to Britain by trea? son to his native land. Thero are somo such men in tho South to-day, but not many ? not many who would purchase placo or preferment by befouling the names of the Confederate leaders, or in? sulting tho memory of tho Confederate dead. Tho Southern people have nothing to be a.shamed of in their struggle, and noth? ing to bo sorry for but that their sacri? fices were made in vain. Even the true hearted Unionists of the South glory in tho prowess, endurance, and the dash of their poople, their energy and actions, thei r fertility in resources, their modera? tion in triumph, and their fortitude in de? feat They exult in tho deathless famo they have acquired, the lofty qualities the}' have displayed, and tho immortal names they have addod to tho world's roll of fame. They reverence the hal? lowed spots? " Where- the veteran drooped beside the springald, j Whore sank strength and symmetry in line." They sympathize with tho victors of' Chr.ncellorsvillc; and they stand where stood the few and fearless followers of Lee and Johnston when they surrendered, and realize with a sense of sympathy, that is painful in its genuineness, "how patriots fell when all but life and honor's lost." Ten thousand times better are suc'a men than thoso who fought through? out the war, and at its close fall in with tho victors and cry peccevvi. - ? PncsNixiANA.?"John Pliceuix" has been lecturing on Astronomy in Califor? nia. Tho following droll illustration oc? cult in his elucidation of the working of th(s celestial machinery, to the citizens of the Golden State: "Tho earth moves round the sun from west to east in a year, and turns on its axis in a day; thus moving at tho rate of G8.000 miles an hour in its orbit, and ro.ling around at the tolerably rapid rate of 1,040 miles an hour. As our readers may have seen that when a man is gal loping a horse violently over a smoooth road, if the horse from viciousness or oth? er cause suddenly stops, the man keeps on at the same rate over the animal's head; so we supposing tho earth so suddenly ar? rested on its axis, men, women, children, horses, cattle and sheep, donkeys, editors . and Members of Congress, with all our goods and chatties would be thrown off into the air at ? speed of 173 milos a min? ute, every mother's son of us describing the arc of a parabola, which is probably tho only description wc ?honld over be ablo to give of the affair. This catas? trophe, to one sufficiently collected to en? joy it, would doubtless be exceedingly amusing; but as there would be no time for laughing, wo pray that it may not oc? cur until after our demise; when, should it take place, our monument will proba? bly accompany tho movement. It is a singular fact that if a man travel round the earth in an eastwardly diroction, he will find on returning to the place of de? parture, ho has gained one whole day; the reverse of this proposition being true also, it follows that the Yankees who are constantly traveling to the West, do not live as long by a day or two as they would if they had staid at home; and supposing each Yankee's time to be worth $1 50 per day, it may be easily shown that a con? siderable amount of money is annually lost by their roving dispositions." " -o Girls.?There are two kinds of girls. One is the kind that appear the best abroad?the girls that are good for par? ties, rides, visits, balls, etc., and whose delight is in such things. Tho other is the kind that appears the hosts at home ?the girls that are useful and cheerful in the dining-room, the sick-room and all the precincts of home. They differ widely in character. One is often a torment at home, tho other a blessing. One is a moth, consuming every thing about her; I the other is a sunbeam, inspiring life and gladness all around her path-way. The ! right education will modify both a little, and unite their good qualities in one. "CHEAP GOODS!
