THE DAILY HEWS. Uar Lotter*. 1 have brought tuc m boro while thediivlight lincers, *lheso well-known > acketa, to road them through; I have tied them np with my wrinkled unger* in three bri int ri boons-rc I, white, und blue. When the hills are bat Iud lu a solemn splendor, I love, with the daylight fadiug ta<t. To basil in tho iticimlight, soft aud tender, That gilds my hie froni the happy past. They are Bitting all in the porch out yonder I se-i them pla ni -my striplings three; With eyes that tiru softer, I think, and tondcr, They turn t ) ?te sunlight to gaze on me; My vounuest, with s wee. est of all fair taces. With hie laughing eyes aud dust? red hair; His brother, as tull ot mauly graces. And the eldest, with stern, determined air. ? -One moment : tho idle dreim is shattered, For I breathe once more iu tho common day; Tor I know that my children's graves arc Beat? ie ed In lonely places far away. Two sailed wi h Morris-he still, deep water Lies o'er the brave ones sleeping there. Who fought and tel' on that day ot slaugoter; One lies, my youngest- I know not where. He died in battle-TIM lonely hollow, Some rocky deft in the mountain wall; Ever ho pressed where none might follow; Ko eye hath witnessed mv dari OK'S tall, Jtte miy ho laid in bis peaceful slumbers Where the epring's sweet How? rs havo early blow". Where the soft south wind breathes in vernal num bT? Over a lone grave marked-"Unknown." Tho sun his set in a purple glory; Tho shidow? deepen down the bill, AB I tamk on my darling's mournful Giory, Yet patiout watt on the Lo' d'8 . weet will ; Mot ni the du ksomo wuys do I groi e and wander, For my lamp is burning with steady ray; While the bridegroom tai ri- s I deeply ponder His solemn warning to "walch ana pray." Might's holy calm o'er the world is spreading, And the moon peep- forth like a timid maid, A silver flood o'er the landscape sheading; One star follows h r, half afraid.

Three Minute?!n st Sweat-Box-The Mod? ern Form of JPnnish ment in the n avy. Many years ago it waa my good foitune to join a happy party of ladies and gentlemen on a viatt to the United States receiving ship North Carolina, then, as now, anchored off JBrooklyn Navy Yard. Tho ship was in beauti? ful order, the weather was fine, the party was All life and gayety, and the Commodore the soul of politeness. We wore roaming through one of tho deck?) under the water-iinc -the orlop dook, I believe, when he said, "If you . will walk this way, I will show you some apart? ments which are only occupied occasionally." He took us toward the bow of the vessel, through that gloomy deck where lamps are burning- at midday, and then ho chowed us tho "apartments"-a half dozen more or less-ot narrow, dark, wooden, upright cells, each largo enough only to contain one living being, and closed by a thick door, through which five or a x auger holes, at the height of a man's mouth, afforded the only supply of air. "These are the 'sweat-boxes,'" ha said; ? "when one of our men deserves punishment now, siuoe flogging has been abolished in the navy, we lock him in one of these boxes for twenly-fonr hours at a time, or, if a very bad fellow, we sometimes give him forty-eight, without food or water." Bo Himplo and humane a punishment, in place of the barbarous, cruel, and degrading system of whipping, at once called forth tho etilogiums ot the party, and we were just about ?iassing oar unqualified approval and adniira ion ot BO mild and bonijin a penalty, when the Comino .lore said with a smile : "It'd pretty sovere, though. Would any one like to try ii for a minute or two.?!' ' Yes you may give me live,*' I said; and amidst a chorua of tho joyous cries ot tho par? ty, "(Jive him five 1 givw him five 1 Comm i dore," I stepped into the box, aud the door was looked upon mo. I found myself immured within four aid ;d ol' a wooden box, so scanty in room that it touched my body on every olde. I am but of medium stoutness; but what would be done With a prisoner a low inches Bloater than I? As it was there was mt room enough on any side b tween my body and the box for mo to raise my band io my head; and when the door closed upon mo I had to stand up so wt i ai -rut that tho back of my head touched the bick ot the cell, while in trout there was barely an inch of room between the inside ot the door and my woe. An the box was wider timn ic "was d". p, I could not even turn in it. The ui? ai bing holes wero some distance be? low tho level of tho eye; in fact, they were ou a .level with my mouth, so that even the mise? rable consolation of peeping through them up? on a dimly-lighted deck was impossible. For the samo nanon that the arms could not be bent, bending the knees was alike impractica? ble. The box was utterly dark, an i tho first sensation that I began to experience was a sickeuinsf, horrible feeling of vant of air. To bo placed alive in a coffin, and to have the lid closely screwed down over your tace, would havo been no worse than this. 1 was, in fact, inhumed alive. it My chest, began to heave with great violence as I gasped tor frc-h air; the blood rushed to my head and seemed to threaten apoplexy, and I couid not reach my hand to my throb? bing temples. Mea m.mo all remained still as the grave on the out lue, I tmppOBe by the Commodore's orders. Then ? thought of men, living men. imprisoned iu this nairow house, and f rgot ten in tho tumult ot great storms at sea, or perishing by a.ow famine in thia sarcophagus, long after tho crew bad deserted the wrecked ship Think of a mau lying helpless upon his face in such a wooden o?se, perhaps standing on his hoad, (tor such might bo his position ) on a wrecked vessel. But these fearful thoughts as to what might happen to others soon travo way to the real horrors of mv own situation. The suffocation occasioned by the closeness of the air in the box producod in mo a budden desire for water. My lips grew hard and drv, and my tongue was like a chip, with a sudden fever ot unquenchable thirst. Although I had determined to remain us quiet as possible, tbe time being so abort, yet reason itself began to play tantaatic tricks. Perhaps they had de? serted mo I thought; perhaps the Commodore, was a practical Joker, and, instead of a few minut?e, might keep mo here for an hour or so. What was to prevent him? All was still as death outside. Could they have gone to the upper dook and left me? I know t lat these were idle surmise- ; but 1he> wou d come, and como, and wit If in creas? ed po wei, too. Mv neck-clo b became too tight tor my throat; I wus almost stiangled with it, and yot could not r?acu my hand to untie it. Should I cry out? Tho torture and agony were becoming insupportable. 'J he per? spiration began to stream from overy pore The box became intolerably close. 1 fancied it tull of humid vapor. The five minutes muat have elapsed iong ugo; the day itself must havo receded. How long had the sun gone down ? Wus it a d rk night on deck a hove ? Of course, I cai.not nell all the set suions tbat thu* took possession of soul aud bodv in that brief trial of a sweat-b x. lt ivas in vam to o.iii toaaoti to your aid. You could no more dismiss your thoughts at will when iu such a place th.m \ou con d imagino the tetid vapor of tho b x tobo the fresh tho bro zy air of morning. It ia th.s v ry condition of mind, to winch tbo v ctnn of* this living death is brough , tbat forma tho principal torturo of the pui i<hiii(!tai.
