-1 H ? m i 1 Baby Looking Ont for BI?. Two little busy hands patting on the win? dow ; Two laughing, bright eyes looking out at me ; Tvro rosy-red cheeks dented with a dimple; Mother-bird is coming; bahv, do rou seo? Down by tho lilac-bush, something white and azure Haw I ic the window aa I passed the tree; Well I knew tho apron and the shouldor knots of ribbon. All belonged to br.by, looking out for me. Talking low and tenderly To myself, as mothers will, Spake I softly, "God in Heaven, Keep my darling free from ill. Worldly gains and worldly honors Ask I not for her from Thee ; But from want and sin and sorrow Keep her ever puro and free." # * * # * Two little waxen hands. Folded soft and silently ; Two little curtained eyes, Looking out no more for me ; Two little snowy cheeks, Dimplo-dented nevermore ; Two little trodden shoes, That will never touch the floor ; Shoulder-ribbon softly twisted, Apron folded, clean and white ; TUBBO are left me-and these only, Of the childish presence bright. Thus He sent an answer to my earnest praying, - Thus Ho keeps my darling freo from earthly stain ; Thus He folds tho pet lamb, safo from . earthly straying : But I miss her sadly by tho window pane, Till I look above it ; then with purer vision, Sad, I weep no longer the lilac-bush to pass. For I see uer, angel, puro and white and sinless, Walking with tho harpers, on tho sea of glass. Two little snowy wings Softly flutter to and fro ; Two tiny, childish hands Beckon still to mo below ; Two tender, angel eyes Watch mo ever earnestly, Through tho loop-holes of* the start, Baby's looking out forme. On Marrying. Some fellow who seems to think well of the "institution," discourses of marrying. Here him: Get married young man, and be quick about it, tool Don't wait for the milleneum, hoping that the girls may turn to angels, before you trust yourself with one of them. A pretty thing you'd be longside an angel, wouldn't you-you brute! Don't wait another day, but right now-this very night ask some nice, iudustriors girl to go into partner? ship with you, to help clear your pathway of thorns and plant it with flowers. Suppose she "kicks" you, don't you know, you blockhead, that there is snch a thing as trying again, autlikat the "minnows" having bit? ten at 'the hook and run away, there is now a chance to catch a better fish? Marrying won't hurt you-it won't. It'll sew the buttons on your shirt, and mend your breeches and jour manners too-it will! Going to get out of this subjuga? ted country, and try your fortune in Mexico or Brazil, are you? "Well, if you will go, take somebody with you who will love and care for you, where all others may be indifferent to your welfare. But don't go-at least, for a time. Get married! There never was a better time, for we are all sub? jugated rebels together, and no one will "make remarks" about tho scan? tiness of your wardrobe, or the coarseness of furniture. You can cut the wood, and she can do the cooking, with a nice little stove that won i COB? much. Plenty of freedwomen to wash and iron, and clean up generally. Stop your whining about being poor, and get married! Stop drinking whiskey, chewing aud smoking tobacco, and playing cards, and save the money thus fool? ishly-worse than foolishly spent. Your wife-that is to be-will take care of your savings, and furnish you in return with woman's affection, and pure coffee to warm your .frozen nature. Get married-you especially who are in the "sear and yellow leaf" of bachelorism, and if you don't, may you freeze to death some of these cool nights. You ought to freeze, you good-for-nothing buttonless crea? ture! ON MARRYTNO. Some fellows, who don't seem to think well of the "institution," dis? course of marrying. Hear theni : Don't get married, young men, and thus show your good sense. Wait even until the millenium, hoping that the girls may turn to something nearer angels or femalo perfection. s A pretty thing you'd be, tied fast to one of those "bread and butter misses," woiddn't yon? You'd be a pretty hen-pecked fool. Don't wait another day, but banish the thought this moment. This very night stay at home, and don't you go and ask any frisky, fashionable young lady to go into partnership with you, to strew your path with thorns and crush its fra? grant flowers. Suppose sho does try to ensnare you, don't you know, you blockhead, that there is such a thing as a rebuff? and that the eels, having bitten at your hook and run away, there is no chance to catch a fish so slick that the grip of the strongest of you is insufficient to hold it? Marrying svill hurt you, it will. True, it will sew the buttons on your shirt and mend your breeches; but it will rend your happiness, it will. Get out of this subjugated country and go to Mexico or Brazil, or some country where you can be free from the wiles and guiles of women, and uot carry with you a woman that will harass and tease you to death; but take 'with yon some disinterested male friendrwhose friendekip is constant and win not provo indifferentste yon/ welfare. But don't go-at -least for a time-and getmarried. - There never was a better time for old batchelors, "for we are all subjugated rebels to? gether, and no one will make remarks about the scantiness of our wardrobe or the coarseness of our furniture." We can cut the wood, and there are plenty of freedwomon to do our wash? ing and cooking, &c, with a nice little stove that "won't cost much." Stop whining about buttonless shirts and getting married! Conclude at once that your money spent in tho enjoyment of your celi? bate state.is not foolishly spent, and listen not to the lectures of those who have tasted the sweets of married life. They advise stop drinking whiskey, chewing and smoking tobacco and playing cards, and taking a wife to curtail such expense. Take a wife, indeed! Your wife-that is to be will increase expense, and furnish you in return with a callous affection, and cold coffee to freeze your generous nature. Don't get married, but remain in the "sear and yellow leaf" of bache? lorism; and if you don't, may your little responsibilities keep you up some cold night until you freeze to death. If you do get married, you ought to freeze for being such a fool. SOME OF 'EM. P. S.-Written in reply to "On Marrying," that appeared in the Neus, of tho 22d March. [Goldsboro News. Tile Twin Bro!lier?-A Tine Story of tile Siege of Port Hudson. It is said that fact is stranger than fiction. How true this is, is exempli? fied in the following true story of two brothers, twins, which occurred during the memorable siege of Port Hudson. Passing one day through the streets of that little town, we no? ticed two corpses lying upon tho gal? lery of the carpenter's shop, awaiting their turn for the boxes dignified with the title of coffins, to consign tliem to their last resting-place. They were bodies of tall stature, strong and well-built, betokening the hardy backwoodsmen of tho South-west. Over the face of each was thrown a ; cloth, through which she blood was j oozing, showing that they had re? ceived their death-wounds through the bead.. It was no uncommon sight during the siege to see death in ?very form, j from tho body pierced by tho single j bullet to tlie uno shattered to atoms by the cannon ball or fearful mortal ! shell. Yet there was something in j the appearance of those bodies which riveted our attention and induced the I inquiry as to who they were. A j rough, grizzlv, weather-beaten Con federate was sitting by their side, whose arm, tied up, showed that for the present he was unlit for active ser- j vice. The tears were trickling down his cheeks as he gazed mournfully upon the dead before him, while his quivering lip told better than words that they had l>oen moro to him than simple comrades of the tent and field j He related their story in a few words: "They were my sons," said he, "and wero twins." "One of thom I joined at the same time ? did. Wo carno here with Oeneral Beale, ami ? have done our duty to the best of our j knowledge, and I believe to tho satis- ? faction of our officers. "This morning, sir, while at the j breastworks, one of my boys, in order j to get good aim at the sharp-shooters i outside, thoughtlessly raised himself too high, when a rifle ball pierced bis ; brain, mid he fell dead at my feet. | His brother, seeing him fall, sprang j forward to pick him up, but in to j doing, exposed himself above the linc j of defenses, when he, foo, received a , ball through the brain, and he fell ; dead upon tho still quivering form of his brother. As they came into the j world, so they went out of it-to- j gerber, fn removing their bodies from tho breastworks, T got this j wound, which shattered my arm. | Would that I had died with them, ! sir, for I have no one to love upon ! this earth." "And their mother-your wife?" ; "Died, sir, in giving them birth." ! One coffin received the remains of i thc twins, and a few days after, while .? sitting in front of his lent, an ex? ploding shell gave a death-wound to \ the heart-broken father.
