Dort. In a late article, we cxplaiued some of thc functions of the aqueous vapor of the atmosphere. We explained its office in checking evaporation fron aniranl and vegetable organisms; in forming rain, tho fond; and the vehicle of the food, of plants ; io forming enow, nature's blank et for tho protection of winter vegeta tion ; and wo showed also how water freezing in tue soil prevents compactness ?nd agglutination of tho noll, and so ren der* the land light, friable, and mellow, when stirred by the pl >w ie opting. We notice (?) the luuction of aqueous vapor in tho fermation of dew. In dis cussing this Bubjcct, wo muat strip it pf its poetical features. We aro not to con sider the dew-drops os tho fleeting dia monds with which nature bedecks even the grass of the field*, nor ns the tears which pilying.augels shed. upon, tho sor* rowing etirth. Tho aubject may ba so treated, however, that it will gain in true dignity and importance. Anybody csu rsikedew si pleasure, ?nd just us nat^ro makes it. ?j When wc put ice and water into a pitcher, the outer surface of the vessels i. covered nt once with drop.-? of water, or dew. There ia always aqueous vapor in tho atmos phere, ?nd aqueous 'vapor is water with a certain amount of latent heat in it. When ibis heat ia tnken away; the vapor becomes water again. Tho chilled bur face of tho pitcher robbing the aqueous vnpor of its Intwnt heat, converts the va por into water. Now, the enrth and all objects in its.surface aro al way s radiating, or titi o zing ofF, heat in;.o freo spr\ce. During thc day tho heat received from the sun is greater than, tho amonnt lost by radiation. Hence, there is no reduc tion, but rather an elevation, of tempera tura. Dut wh?n the sub'sets, the earth continues to lose beat, and receives none. Its temperature, therefore, is reduced, and thc aqueous vapor of the atmosphere, omiug in contact with tho chilled earth, toses its heat, nud is condensed and de posited ns dew. Let un notice some of thc circumstances that modify the deposit ot dew. (1) Thc greater the amount df aqueous vapor in tho atmosphere, tho retreater, other thin.'S being equal, will be the'de posit. When the atmosph?re is absolute ly saturated with aqueous vapor, that U holds no much as possible for its temper ature, tho slightest reduction of temp?ra ture is attended with tho formation ol dew, and if the reduction is considerable the deposit of dew is correspondingly co pious. Hence, not unfrequently, tb? grass becomes wet even before tho sur lias set. Hence, also, wo And tbo grus/ in thc morning, when tho atmosphere ]'. moist, perfectly drenched with dew, pro vided the preceding night bas beet clear and still. On tbo other bnnd, ic drought, tho grass is frequently so dry ir the carly morning that wo may walk ir it at will without dimming tho polish o our boots. (2) Another modify ing circumstance ii thc clearness of tho heavens. Cloudi reflect buck the radiant beat and preven the necessary reduction of temperature The most oppressive night? in summe are generally cloudy nights. The radian heat is not thrown oft" and lost in frei apoco, but is thrown back to tho curth b< the clouds, and hence tho sultry, KU il o eating feeeling we experience on cloud; summer nights. Take n certain weigh of wool und lay it on thc brass ut sunset and Htretcb three or four feet above it ot uprights a thin pieco of cloth. Pla? near by on tho grass, but unprotected an equal weight of wool, and on encl parcel put a thermometer. On examina tiou thc next morning at sunrise, th thermometer lying on the unprotcclei wool will bo lower and that parcel wil also woigh moro than the other. Why One explanation covers both facts. Th unprotected wool radiated, without ob struction, its heat into free spuce. Ilene Its temperature was mo*o reduced am tho deposit of dow, increasing ita woighl was accordingly greater. Hence th practice of gurdo nc rs in stretching loos matting, or even extending a board over tend ff vegetation when fros is feared. Like tho clouds, tho con trivaaces rellcct buck tho ridiant heal and less reduction of temperature is th ie ult. (3) For the deposit of dew to be copiou the atmosphere must bo still. Why Consider a meadow thickly set I: grass. Tho grass is radiating it heat, ns rapidly becoming chilled If the utmosphere bo still, i will also becoiuo chilled by contact witl tho cold grass, and its vnp?r will bo con doused and deposited. But when the at mospbero is in motion, tho snmo stratun of air does not brood over tho cold gras lung enough to have lu tompsratun sufficiently reduced to condense its vopoi It is for these rcasoua, that the fanner particularly tho tobacco grower, whoi threatened by fror'--which Ls but frozei dew -fears tho still, clear night. At tbi close of an anxious day, his fear vanish if clouds appear, or. tho v.lix rises. We summarize these point by saying, that for copious deposits o dew, tho atmosphere must be humid still and sereno. ( I) There is another matter connectei with tho formation of dow, which is wei calculated to arrest attention. All ob jeets possess diU'ereut radiating power? and heneo loso heat at night with differ eut rates of facility. Living vegetatini radiates bent far moro freely than dem vegetation or any form of organic mattel Consequently when tho supply of dew j sparse, living vegetation, which needs i gets all or nearly all ; dead matter, get none or nearly none. Hence nt nil i discoverable on the gravel walks, on tb plank fonces, or ricks of straw. Natur? though prodigal of her gifts, is not tb less frugal. -When the supply of dew i moderate, sho bestows it exclusively o objects tbat need its life-giving powor, un gives it to tho objects that neod it le? only when tho supply is largo nud ?ti can afford to be lavish. What wondei ful wisdom-is that which has cudowe the diff?rent forms of .matter with til ^.__\r i_-J_->?-i ...... J .

To ward off th d inger end to protract and Invigorate ve? etnblo lifo, another beautiful nndgtrikit provision comes into play. * Let us se Wo beat a volume of water at such a ra that its temperatue rises, say, 10. dogre per minute. When tho temperatu teaches 212 degrees, the thermomet placed in tho water ceases to riso, bi becomes "stationary and remains ed f 100 minutos, nt tho end of which time i the water ls gone,-ls converted in steam. During this 100 minutes, tl source of heat being constant, 10 degre entered every minute, and yet th6 wat and escaping steam stood at 212. Wh han become of this 1,000 degrees of hes which has not'mado tho ? water or tl steam hotter, of which the thermomet takes no cognizance? It bas been et ployed in effecting a change of sta', converting liquid water into the vapor water.

All this excess of boat is spent converting a liquid into its vapor, and called latent heat, because neither oi focllnga nor tho thermometer, can dete it.

The cold, cleardsyr.of winter-wbo~o*nnot recall them I Now, let, us apply.this doctrine to the subject in hand. When aqueous vapor is condensed ns dew upon a plant Us latent heat is thrown ont and warms up tho air immediately over the plant, so that tho plant, to get dew, must be chilled, und in getting dew ?B warmed. In thie way* tho period of growth and ripening is uroirac ted to a later period in tho full than would otherwise b? possible, and tho farmer ia" softly admonished of ibo ap proaching advent of whiter. Consider the tobacco field-the broad, bending leaves ripening in tho mild Sop lotuber. ..Those leaves, to bagante heavy and oily, demand dew. To get dew, they must be chilled ; but if chilled too much. tbeji aro ruined. A^4f*jht<taos i <ed ; f ?at fe o vol ved, uj?o A, thant I VMt f? ??t>ar?u?:plttnl * " s , ,?

They can live and thrive for weeks now without rain ; for moisture is stored away in tho oarth for their use between the rain's, and they are, to a large extent, .indopeudegt of the dew. They get but little dew ; they need but little. j. . ? IJ Tho philosophy of dow-formalion ex plains clearly why dew is -most abundant exactly when it lu most needed: In Muy or September, tho days aro shorter and cooler than in July. The earth al sunsot in these two months, is many dr greos cooler than nt nunrc.t in miusum mor.

But tho mel) avl? followed it and the > world which watched its proud advance or defiant stand, see in it still tho un stained banner of tho brave whose final defeat but added lustre to their grand est vicories. Il not 'rhe flag of the Confederacy,- but simply the brinier-the battlo flag--?wat nf the Confederate soldier. As su<di it swpfihl pot share in- the cou??ctuiation which our caine received, or buffer from its downfall. Tho whole world can unite in a chorus of praise to the gallantry of tho men who followed where this banner It waa at the battlo of Manansas, about 4 o'clock of the afternoon of tho 21st of July, 1B61, Wien the bte of the Confed eracy seemed trembling in the balance, that General Beauregard, looking across tho Warren ton turnpike, which passed through,tho.?Alley -between:.tho position of tho Oonfcderato and the elevation -be yond occupied by the Federal line, saw a body of troops inovlug towards bis loll and the Federal right. He wai greatly j concerned to know, but could not decide, what troops they were-whether Federal or Confederate. The similarity of uuilortn and of col ufa curried by.-tho opposing armies, und the clouds of ' dust, mada it a>mo>t impossible to decide. Shortly before this timo Central Beaureg?rd bad receivec* Crom the signal nflicor. Captain Alexander, a dispatch saying that from tho signal station in the rear ho hon uightod the colors of titi? column, drooping and covered with the dint of journeyings, but could not Veli whether they wore ilia stars aud st ri pos or heetn^s and boxs. -He thought, however, that tl?oy were probably Patterson's troops arriving on the ticld aud reinforcing the enemy. General Beauregard was momentarily expecting help from tho right, and the uncertainty and >nxiety of this hour amounted toaugul.h. Still the column pressed on. Calling a niall' officer, Gen eral Beauregard instructed him to go nt once to General Johnston, at the Lewis House, and uay that the enemy were re ceiving heavy reinforcements, that the troops on the plateau were very 1 much scattered, and that ho would bo compell ed to retire to the Lewis Houso and there reform-hoping that the troops orderod up from tho right would arrive in time io enable bim to et abllsh and bold the now line. Meanwhile,tho.i ii no.wn troops were pressing on. Thc J ty wa? sultry, and only at long inte?- ts were thero the ?lignent breeze. The colors of tho mys tarinus column hung drooping on the stuff. General Beauregard iriui again mid again to decide what colojs tbev curried. He used his glass repeated ly, aud bunding it tu others begged then lo look, hoping that their eyes tnijht bc keener than hia. General Beauregard was in a state o great anxiety, but finally determined it hold his ground, iclying on tho promisee help from the right, knowing that if ii arrived in time victory might be secured but feeling also that if the mysterioui column should bo Federal troups the da} Wau lost. Suddenly a puff of wind spread tlx colors to the breeze. It waa ibo Confed erato Hug-tho stars and bars I It wai Early with tho Twenty-foutb Virginia tho Seventh Lousisna. and tbeThirteenlt Mississippi. The column bad by th i time reached the extreme right of tbi Federal lines. Tho moment the flat was recognized Beauregard turned to hi ?uiff right and left, saying, ' See tha tho day ls oural'' and ordered an im mediate advance. In the meuntinn Early's brigade deployeJ into Hue am charged the enemy's right-Ery, also daubed upon the field-und in one bou not an enemy was to be seen South o Bull Bun. While on this fioldand suffering tbi ter. : hhs anxiety, General Beauregard de termiued that tho Confederate aoldie munt have a (lug so distinct from that o ino enemy that no doubt should eve aguiu endanger bis cause on tho field o battle.

General Beauregard approved tb? change, and discussed tho matter frech with General Johnston. Menu n hilo i became known that lb? design for a fla; was under discussion, and many design 'wer?'s?nt in. One come from 'Mississiu El ; ene from J. B. Wallon and E. C iancock, which coiucided with the de sign of Colonol Milos. The matter wu: freely discussed at heaoquartcrs, till fl nally, when he arrived at Fairfax Cour House, Goueral Beauregard caused hi draughtsman'(a Gernun) to make draw inga of all tho various designs which hui been submitted. With theso design boforo them the officers at headquarter agreed on the famous old bannor ihe red field, the bluo crass, and th whiio stars.
