As the flow of the smooth gliding
river,
By moonlight or sunbeam caressed,
Bears on from the beautiful giver.
Bright drops on the ocean s wide breast
As the zephyr, that never reposes.
But seeks amid groves something new,
Comes laden with odor of roses.
Inhaled as it sipped the bright dew;
So thought, with its light, noiseless
measure,
And Jaden with perfume of love,
Comes bearing the coveted treasure,
Fond whispers from loved ones above,

A Senator from one of the moun-
tain districts of Tennessee, on his ar-
rival at Nashville to take his seat,
put up a first class hotel, when the
following occurred on taking his seat
at the table :
_ Senator to servant—« What is the
victuals ?” ' Servant—t£ What will
you have sir, tea or coffee ?” What
kind of tea?” Senator—Store tea, by
g—d, do you suppose I came here to
drink sssafrax ?”
Will wonders never cease? Gen.
Butler and the notorious Brick Pom-
eroy are advertised to address the
National Labor Union from the same
platform.

October 1st. ’68 n47-tf.
The coming husband walks out
with his wife on a week day, and is
not afraid of a milliner’s shop. He
even has " change ” when asked for
it, never alludes to it afterward. He is
not above carrying a large bundle or
a cotton umbrella, or even holding
the baby in his lap in an omnibus.
He runs on first to knock at the
door when it is raining. He goes to
bed first in cold weather. He is
melted instantly by a tear. He nev-
er flies up about his buttons, nor
brings friends home to supper. He
never smells of tobacco, He never
invades the kitchen, and would no
more think of “blowing” up one of
the servants than of ordering the din-
ner. He is innocent of a latch-key.
He is very easy and affectionate, keep-
ing the wedding anniversary regular-
ly.
Letters from Lisbon announce the
morganatic marriage of Don'Ferdi-
nand, of Portugal, to Fanny Lissler,
a celebrated danseuse. A morganatic
marriage, all our readers may knor
is one in which a nobleman, in cer‛
tain countries, is permitted “o marry
a woman beneath him, o% any stand-
ing whatever morally or socially,
giving her his 1<C hand, and thus
depriving the offspring of this union
of the right, and privileges of legitis
mate chdren. It is
in other words
• ,S0it of legalized prostitution, in
Vnich a woman is made to hold
the place of mistress publicly,
und, as it were, legitimately. We
had hoped that civilization had ad-
vanced enough to abolish such a
proceeding in any part of the world,

Now making the ocean its pillow,
Now rushing again to the fray ;
Or, like the wild hurricane’s rattle
That sweeps over mountain and plain,
Now meeting the forest in battle,
Now crushing the well ripened grain;
Thought comes with the mad wave of
Fashion,
And tow’ring Ambition’s hot breath,
And all are engulfed in the ocean
Of Discord, Disunion and Death,
A gentleman was chatting with a
little girl on a railway train, who
suddenly looked up and said :
“ You look like Abraham Lin-
coln.”
“Do I?” said the gentleman;
“how do you know I’m not?”
“He’s dead,” said the child, with
an astonished look at the questioner;
“ they killed him!”
“ Well,” said the gentleman, “but
didn’t Abraham’Lincoln have a bro-
ther ?’
The child looked puzzled for a
minute, and then quietly remarked :
“My father saw Abraham Lin-
coln.” 9
“Did he ?” asked the gentleman.
“ Yes ; after he was dead he saw
him. Did you ever see him.”
“No,” said the gentleman, “ I nev-
er saw him.’’
“Then,” said the child, trium-
phantly, “ of course you ain’t his
brother.”
Of Course.—Beast Butler writes
a long letter to a Virginia carpet-
bagger, in which he insists that un-
der the requirements of the Recons
struction Acts the test oath must be
administered to the members elect of
the Virginia Legislature. This ab
solute requirement can, he says, on-
ly be dispensed with by act of Con-
gress.
The Beast’s chief—the man who
got off the famous story on the hero
of Dutch Gap—has committed him-
self to another theory. Gen. Grant
long since decided that the Recon-
struction Acts do not require the
test oath to be taken. Who is right
—Grant or Butler.? Who runs the
the machine called the Federal •
Government— Grant or Butler ?
Whose views will be enforced in the
organization of the Legislature— «

Victor Hugo’s “ L’Homme qui
Bit” is severely criticised in Eng-
land as a “gross caricature of Eng-
lish manners, laws, customs, and so-
ciety in the reign of Queen Anne.”
One writer, who professes himself un-
able to “ understand how the author
after enjoying the hospitality of this
country for so many years, should
devote his time to writing a distorted
and insulting description” of the
England one hundred and fifty years
ago, adds that the “ absurdities the
writer falls into in assuming that the
charters of Athelston and Alfred are
the laws by which the people were
governed during the era of the
Stuarts call forth a laugh of derision.”
How tenaciously woman clings to the
hope of accomplishing what she has
once set her mind upon is well de-
scribed in a homely manner by the
following anecdote: A kind physi-
cian living near Boston, wishing to
smooth the last hours of a poor wo-
man whom he was attending, asked
her if there was anything he could
do for her before she died. The poor
soul, looking up, replied : “Doctor, I
have always thought I should like to
have a glass butter dish before I
died !”

THE OFFICIAL HISTORY
OF THE WAR.
Its Causes, Character. Conduct, and
Results,
By HON. ALEXANDER H. STEPHENS..
A Book for all Sections and all Parties.
FEVHIS great work presents the only com-
plete and impartial analysis of the
Causes of the War yet published, and1'
gives those interior lights and shadows of
the great conflict only known to those’
high officers who watched the flood-tie
of revolution from its fountain springs,
and which were so accessible to Mr. Ste-
phens from his position as second officer
of the*Confederacy.
To a public that has been surfeited with:
apparently similar productions, we prom-
ise a change of fare, both agreeable and*
salutary, and an intellectual treat of the.
highest order. The Great American War
has at last found a historian worthy of its-:
importance, and at whose hands it will re-
ceive that moderate, candid and impar-
tial treatment which truth and justice so,
urgently demand.
The intense desire everywhere manifest-
ed to obtain this work, its official charac-
ter and ready sale, combined with an in+
creased commission, make it the best snb-
scription book ever pablished.
