The apples are ripe in the orchard, The work of the reaper is done, And the golden woodlands redden In the blood of the dying sun. At the cottage-door the grandsire Sits pale in his easy chair, While the gentle wind of twilight l'lays with his silver hair. A woman is kneeling beside him; A fair young head is pressed, In the first wild passion of sorrow, Against his aged breast. And far from over the distance The faltering echoes come Of the Hying blast of trumpet, And the rattling roll of drum. And the grandsire speaks in awhisper : " The end no man can see ; But we give him to his country, And we give our prayers to Thee." The violets star the meadows, The rose buds fringe the door, And over the grassy orchard The pink-white blossoms pour. But the grandsire's chair is empty, The cottage is dark and still; There's a nameless grave in the battle-field. And a new one under the hill, And a pallid, tearless woman By the cold hearth sits alone, Ami ihe old clock in the corner Ticks on with a steady drone.

Taylor, of the Chicago Journal, is writing from the Army of the Cuinlinland t-ketches of life iu the camp and fluid, which surpass, in vivid color- ing, anything we have seen. Here are some of his pictures : SKLF RELIANCE OF TvESTEIlN SOLDIERS. If there are men in the world gifted with the most thorough self-reliance, Western soldiers are the men. To fight in the graud anger of battla, seems to ine to require less manly fortitude, after all, than to bear without murmuring the swann of little troubles that vex the c;mi|i and march. No matter where or when you halt, there they are at once at lnuue. They know precisely what to do tiis', and they do it. I have seen them march into a strange region at dark, ami ;t 1 it,t>&t. iis soon ns iircs would show well, they were twinkling all over tbe field, the fMbley ooues rising like the work <if enchantment everywhere, and the little dog-tents lying snug to the ground, as il Hke the mushrooms, they had grown there, and thearoma of coffee and tor- tured baron, suggesting creature com- fi rts, and the whole economy of a life in canvas cities moving as steadily on as if it had not intermitted. The move- ments of regiments, you know are as blind as fate Nobody can tell to-night where be will be tomorrow, and yet with the first glimmer of morning tie camp is aptir, and the preparations begin fur staying there forever ; cozy little cabins of red cedar neatly fitted, are go- ing mi : here a boy is making a fireplace and quite artistically plastering it with the inevitable red earth ; he has found a crane somewhere, and swung up there- on a two li gged dinner pot; there a fel- low is finishing out a chimney with brick from IHI old kiln of secession proclivities: yonder a bower house closely woven of evergreens is almost ready for the occu- pants ; tables, stools, bedsteads, are tum- bled together by the roughest of carpen- ters; the avenues between the lines of tcrt.s are cleared and smoothed—''po- liced," in camp phrase—little seats with cedar awnings iu front of the tents give a cottage look ; while the interior, in a \\ rutie w;iy, has a genuine home-like air. The bit of a looking-glass hangs against the cotteu wall; a handkerchief of a car- pet just before the 'bunk' marks the step- ping off to the land of dreams; a violin cas^e is s'runtr up to a convenient hook, flanked by a, gorgeous picture of some hero of somewhere, mounted upon ahorse rampant and saltant, "and what a leagth of tuil behind !" The business of living has fairly begun again. But at 5 o'clock some dingy morning, obedient to sudden orders, the regiments inarch away in good cheer; the army wagoners go streaming and swearing after them ; the beat of the drum grows faint- er ; the last straggler is out of sight; tbe canvas city has vanished like a vision.— On such a morning and amid such a scene, I have loitered till it seemed as if a busy city had passed put of sight, leav- ing DOthing behind for all that life and light but empty desolation. "Will you wouder much if I tell you that I have watched such a vanishing with a pang o regret; that the trampled field looke dim to me, worn smooth and beautifu by the touch of those brave feet whosi owners have trod upon thorns with song —feet, alas, how many, that shall neve again iu all this coming and going world make music upon the old thresholds !— And how many such sites of perished cities this war has made, how many bond of good-fellowship have been rent to b united no more ! REOON'NOISANCE ON " PRIVATE ACCOUNT.' Every woed, ravine, hill, field, is ex plored; the productions, animal and veg etable, are inventoried, and one day ren ders these soldiers as thoroughly conver sant with the region round about as il they had been dwelling there a life-time They have tasted water from every spring and well, estimated the corn to the acre, tried the watermelons, gaged the peaches, knocked down the persim uions, milked the cows, roasted the pig? picked the chickens; they know who live here and there and yonder, the whereabouts of the native boys, the names of the native girls. If there is a curious cave, a queer tree, a strange rook any- where about, they know it. You can see them with the chisel, hammer and haversack, tugging up the mountain or scrambling down the ravine in a geologi cal 'passion that would have won the right hand of fellowship from Hugh Mil- ler, and homo they como laden with spec- imens that would enrich a cabinet. I have in my possession the most exquisite of soil buds just ready to open, beautiful shells, rare minerals, collected by these rough and dashing naturalists. If you think the rank and file have notaste for the beautiful, it is time you remembered of what material our armies are made.— Nothing will oatch a soldier's eye quick- er than a patch of velvet moss, or a fresh little flower, and many a letter leaves the camp enriched with faded souvenirs of these expeditions. I said that noth- ing will catch an old campaigner's eye quicker than a flower, but I was wrong, —a dirty, ragged baby will. I have seen a thirteen dollar man expend a dol- arfor trinkets to hang about the dingy neck of an uruhin that at homo and three years ago he would not have touched with the tongs. Do you say, it is for ;he mother's sake ? You huvc only to lee the bedraggled, coarse, lank, tobacco- chewing dam—is it wicked for me to use that word in such a fashiou?—to abandon that idea, like a foundling, to he tender mercies of the first door-step.

A ry spot is a good matress ; theflapsof blanket quite a downy pillow.

The valley of Lauterbrunnen is a mere gorge between mountains. Its entrance is between rocky precipices, which look frowningly upon you.— Through it runs the Black Lutschiae, which is fed by glaciers and mountain streams. The village of Lauterbrun- nen with difficulty adapts itself to the narrowness of the valley, and upon ono side the mountains slanting more gradually, offer a place for the herds- man to construct his chalet, and the farmer to cultivate his field. The glory of the vale, and that which draws many a traveler, is the Staubbach. It is not Niagara: its music is not like ton thousand thun- ders ; nor does it dash over the preci- pice a boiling sea. But it's a mere veil of water—a waving column. Boldly and unitedly it rushes over the look, eight hundred feet above, but ere it reaches the earth below, its enemy the wind, attacks it and scatters it in every direction, and diffuses it into spray.— Yet with skill it unites its wandering forces as it touches the earth, forms once more, and joins the phalanx of the Lutschine—the grand army of the cascades of the valley. Having spent a night in this gorge, on the morrow our company of three set out for a grand promenade. We were the representatives of Ireland, Wisconsin, and Michigan : and with strong limbs and ardent hearts we were bound for an adventure—no less a one than crossing the Wergern Alp, and reaching, ere night, the valley of Grin- delwaid, twenty miles distant. What ared we though old fogies at a dis- tance had said that it was too late to ross the mountains ? What cared we though the timid were sure that the enow covered the passes, and winter :iadset in upon them? Our good landlord at Lauterbrun- nen had said it wasn't so; our own thoughts, too, said amen to this, and we were bound at least to make the trial, and experience for ourselves the tem- perature of the Wergern ! Behold us theD, with our packs thrown over our shoulders and our Alpine stocks in hand, bidding bonjonr princes to adorn the Court of the Alps, attended their monarch and added im- portance to the assembly. Waa there ever a nobler king, or a grander court? Republican that I am, I could not but take off my hat, and cry vive le roi before him. In the presence of this illustrious company we ate, humble as we were And as we sat, suddenly we heard the music of the Court begin. And what think you it was ? A harp of a thou- sand strings ? Or the lyre of Orpheus? No, but it was the grand organ of the Alps—the avalanche! whoso music, soft at ftrst, becomes at length like the thunder of heaven. Then above the Court thin clouds of saow, driven by the winds, curled up majestically, " white and sulphury, like foam from the roused ocean of deep hell!" Think you not the scene paid us for one morning's toil ? Think you not it was distinction to dine in the presence of these monarchs of moun- tains? Come and do likewise, and see how you then regard it. We spent an hour here, rested our weary limbs and filled our empty stom- achs. Then we were again upon the march. The summit was passed and the descent commenced. We noted the forest of withered pines, with its dead trunks all white and scraggy, stripped and bavkless which reminded Byron " of himself and family." "We noted the rocky precipices which tow- ered upon our right and upon our left. We noted the hamlet of the herdsman, occupied in summer but deserted in winter. We noted at length beneath us the Valley of Grindelwald, which seemed to be near but kept receding as we proceeded. The shades of night had fallen ere we found ourselves at the inn of Grindelwald. " Supper and to bed " was our cry that night. Our adventure had been crowned with suc- cess. We had proved the fallacy of old cronies' predictions and women's tears, and had crossed the Wergern among the last of its voyagers. F. W. B. and they were as good as new. is thicker than water." Blood ALWAYS CHEERFUL.—-"Why this con- stant happy flow of spirits?" "No se- cret, doctor," replied the mechanic, "I have one of the best of wives; andwhen I go to work she always has a kind word of encouragement for me, and when I go home, she meets me with a smile and a kiss, and tea is sure to be ready; and she has been doing so many things during the day to please me, and I cannot find it in my heart to speak unkind to anybody." What an influence, then, hath woman over the heart of man to soften it, and make it tbe fountain of et;cerful and pure emo- tion ! Speak geniJv, then; a happy smiie and a kind word of greeting, af- ter the toils of the dav aro over, costs nothing, and goes far towards k' a home happy and peaceful. to mine host and settiDg out for our ourney. Having crossed the Lu f schine, we ivound up a steep ascent by the ineva- Ie "zig-zag." Up, up, we toiled, passing through a hamlet and its sur- onnding cultivation. Now a young- ter comes running out of a chalet to give us a serenade with his squeaking nouth-piece, partly for our pleasure, rincipnlly for our pence. Now we see wo diminutive mountaineers, over vhose heads four summers have passed, lerforming wonderful feats at wrest- ng and rough and-tumbling-all, all or us ! Now a bouquet of doubtful eauties is stuck before us; and now a jeggarly looking fellow kindly offers to juide us over the mountain. How many attentions we do receive ! The whole hamlet seem3 determined to please us ! But at length weleave it behind, and its crowd of pleasant people, borrowing that we could not remain longer in such agreeable so- ciety ! And now as we ascend higher—the valley of Lauterbrunnen becomes small- er and smaller; the Lutschine dwin- dles into a mere brook ; the Staubbach, which had looked down so haughtily upon us, was in turn looked down up- on ; the village seemed a boy's play- and everything below diminu- tiveness itself. The weather joined with the scenery to give us pleasure.— Never was it more beautiful for climb ing the mountains. Tho sun was blight, but not oppressive ; the air was bracing and invigorating. The breath of Autumn hadchanged the foliage of the mountain iorests, and produced a variety of colors surpassingly beauti- ful. No snow appeared save that which enveloped tho summits of the Bernese Alps, which we were approach- ing. At noon we sat down near the top of the Wergern, and took our lunch, which wehad brought with us. We dined in the presence of an illustrious company. Just across the wild gorge which laybefore and beneath us, the Jungfrau and the Deut'd'Argent sat upon their eternal thrones. How glo- rious wero thoy in their robes of daz- zling white, as beautiful as punty, and "shining like truth." Then the Moncb, tb© Wetterhorn, tbe Eigher, noble thing, From the N. Y. World. The Fruits of Victory. The military prospect baa, within the last few days, become so hopeful that we may confidently anticipate the substan- tial annihilation of the military power of the rebels before midsummer of next year. This favorable prospect is not a reason for relaxing, but, on the contrary for invigorating our military operations. The rebels should bo aiiowud no breath- ing spell; no interval for such partial recuperation as their enfeebled resources may permit. They must, with all possi- ble energy, ho pushed to the wall. The war must be ended before they can reap another harvest to replenish their sup- plies of food; before the aspect of Euro- pean politics changes to our disadvantage before the inflation of our currency cul- minates in a commercial crisis. Much may be expected from Gen. Grant's im- mediate operations : and as a winter campaign is perfectly feasible in eueh a climate as that of Georgia, we may, per- haps without being over-sauguiue, expect to see the whole region west of the Alle ghanies and extending down to the Gulf fully recovered before spring. If, mean- while, Gen. GUmore captures Charleston the shrukeu remnant of the rebellion may easily be disposed of in a vigorous spring campaign. With this cheering prospect, we may fairly demand that our successes shall begin to bear some of tbe appropriate fruits of success. The time has come when there is not only no excuse, but not even a colorable pretext, for interfer- ing with the ordioary course of judicial proceedings in the loyal States. Even the blindest and most servile partisans of the administration must now confess that illegal searches, seizures and imprison- ments cannot be justified on the plea that they are required by the public safe- ty. The country has a right to demand that the strong measures which have for the last two years, made the military in- dependent of and superior to tho civil authority, shall immediately be discon- tinued. The reason (or pretense) on which the negro policy of the adminis- tration was originally advocated having ceased, that policy should cease also.— The original argument was, that slavery isjthe main prop of the rebellion, the la- bor of the slaves being the means by which the rebel armies are supported in the field. We do not insist on the fact that this argument has been refuted by the logic of events, there being at present a million more slaves in tho area not yet recovered than there were before tho war. These slaves have been sent there for se- curity from the slave States iu possession of our arms. Had we left slavery un- molested, this million of laborers would have been contributing during tho last summer to the resources of the Union, instead of to those of the rebellion. But this consideration belongs to the past, and we will not now press it. The point wo wish to present is, that from this time forth, the labor of slaves can contribute nothing to the support of the rebellion. In all reasonable probability the rebels have gathered the last crops they will gather before the destruction of their ar- mies. What is planted next spring can- not be harvested before next summer and autumn, when tho rebel armies will be past succor. It is only as a war measure that Mr. Lincoln has ever at- tempted to justify his proclamation ; but even if it had ever any efficacy as a war measure, it is new to plainly obsolete in that view that the argument can no long- er be urged. It ought, therefore, to be abandoned (or at least ignored) in all fu- ture proceedings. Our Generals, if not unduly interfered with, arecompetent to give the coup de grace to the tottering rebellion, and the administration would do well, while giv- ing them efficient support, to devote reasonable amount of attention to the momentuous political problems that emerge in proportion as the rebellion wanes. The wisest thing it can do with the proclamation is to cause it to be un- derstood that it will not take another step in the matter, and leave all the questions of property involved to the de- cision of the Supreme Court. In the present posture of affairs no political proceeding would contribute so much to the termination of the war, and the speedy pacification of the South. In January and February tho leading pratical question with the planters will be, what crops they shall plant the com- ing season. If the war is soon to end, it is neither for their interest nor for ours that they should devote their fine cotton lands to cereals. The country does not want the enormous overplus of bread- stuffs that would result from this direc- tion of Southern industry. The country does need tbe great addition to its wealth which would be made by a successful cot- ton crop the coming year. Soon after the close of the war we must return to specie payments; and we need to pro- vide, by all reasonable means, against the shook to business and tho fall in values which will naturally accompany the change. A large export of cotton would save us the necessity of exporting an equal value in gold, and it would like- wise give increased value to our bread- stuffs by reopening for them a most im- portant market in the South. The coun- try needs this great resource. If there is any statesmanship at Washington, the government will doits best to induce the South to make a cotton crop next year. Another most important question grows out of the hopeful military' situa- tion. The President who succeeds Mr, Lincoln will not be elected on a war issue —which will be obsolete before Mr. Lin- coln goes out of office—but on political is- sues growing out of the condition of the country at and after the return of peace. The subdued South will have even a greater interest in these questions than the victorious North. The South will be fairly entitled, unless wo abandon re- publican principles, to have a voice, and to their proportionate weight, in the ad- ministration of the government in the restored Union. Every facility and en- couragement should therefore be given to the Southern States to participate in the Presidential election. They should be allowed such participation because there it is just in itself and because are no other means so promising for reviving Union sentiment and fellow feeling with the North among the people of that alien- ated section.

Every thing indicates that the cam- paign of 1863 has reached its end, and that, for the next four or five months, ac- tive operations will not be resumed upon a scale of any great magnitude. Meado has desisted from tho pursuit of Lee and fallen back to the hither bank of the friendly Kappahannock; Grant, owing to the necessity of accumulating supplies, and tho execrable character of the moun- tain roads over which his advance must necessarily be made, will not be likely to leave Chattanooga.at present. Long- street, by the defeat of Bragg, had been compelled to raise the siege of Knoxville aud abondon the project of recapturing East Teunessee ; by which quiet prevails at all the prominent points along the line of Federal operations. On the first day of January of the present year the Federal army, under Gen. Eosecrans, was burying its dead which had fallen the day previous in the tremeuduous battle of Murfreesboro, or as generally termed Stone River. That same night Bragg, under cover of dark- ness, withdrew his dishearttr^d forces, aud took up a new line of occupation upon the south side of Duck River. Thus, at the opening of 1863, the reb- els held, west of the Mississippi, all the country south of the Arkansas river, au< on the east of the Father of Waters, n^ ly or all, south of a line which commenced on the river at Vicksburg, ranup the Yazoo river to Yazoo City, then ran o irregularly to the northeast till it reach- ed Bragg iu Tennessee on Duck river.— From this point it continued eastward, including East Teunessee, until it reach ed its terminus in the East somewhere not far from Fredericksburg, on the Po- tomac River. The States held by the rebels were about oue half of Arkansas, nearly all of Louisiana, Texas, aud Mis- sissippi, all of Alabama, Georgia, Flori- da, South and North Carolina, with tri- fling exceptions, and the west part of Tennessee and Virginia. Tho Federal forces held two hostile southern States, Missouri and Kentucky ; held half of Arkansas, half of Tennessee, one-third of Virginia, and had effected lodgments on the coasts of all the others. How much have wo gained during the present year ? Nothing in Virginia ; the remaining half of Tennessee ; of Missis- sippi about oue third, or, practically, the country lying west of the railroad that runs from Memphis to Mobile ; and the navigation of tho Mississippi. In Ar- kansas, tho chief difference between the beginning and end of the year is, that that then the rebels occupied the Arkan- sas River, which is now occupied by us. From this it will be seen that that the gain in territory on the part of the Fed- eral Government is very small. Strategically, we have made greater progress than in territory, At the be- ginning of the year the rebels held Vioka* burg and Port Hudson, through which 1 they were able to avail themselves of thff enormous productions of Texas and west- ern Louisiana. At Duck river they guarded Chattanooga, the door which opened into the very heart of the Con' federacy, and also secured to themselves the posession of East Tennessee, the gra- nary of the Confederacy. From Texat they obtained immense supplies of cattle, and from East Tennessee, hogs, grain, and saltpetre without limit. In capturing Vicksburg and Porl Hudson, we cut them off from the live stock of Texas, and in getting East Tenn- essee, we deprived them of an inexhausti' ble source of cereals aud a vital constitH- ent iD the manufacture of gunpowder. la these two positions they have sustained an irreparable loss. Tho plenty which reigned in the South during the year* preceding hau departed, and in its place comes the grim monarch Famine. In other respects we have inflicted slight damage upon the Confederacy.— The siege of Charleston has, as yet, don* nothing more than close that port against vessels running the blockade. At Wil- mington, we have, bya large and expen- sive addition to our squadron, succeeded in stopping much of the contraband trade while the same is the case at Browns- ville, in Texas. The victories at Vicksburg and Chat- tanooga, especially the latter, give u* other advantages, which, however, are rather prospective than present. The next rebel line of defence> owing to the situation of streams and railroads in tho South, must be formed with its left on Mobile, its right covering Richmond,- and its centre fronting Grant at Atlanta.- It is only by thus reforming their line that they will be uble to preserve eonv munication between the wings—^a condi- tion absolutely essential to the strength and integrity of this cordon, of defence. Small bodies may for a while dispute the possession of such points as Jackson,- Moridan and Dalton, while it is certaiu that guerrillas will infest the whole coun- try north cf the new rebel lino; but alt such operations are irregular and valde- lcss beyond the temporary annoyance' they may cause an advancing enemy, as thoy do not at all effect the vital issues which must be met and settled at Mobile Atlanta and Richmond. This new line upon which the rebel ar- mies are thus forced is their last, and by far the most indefensible one which they have at any time occupied. Its air line length is much shorter than any of the others, but its actual length, owing to the tortuosity of the railroads which con- nect it, so much greater. The condition' of preserving their communication from wing to wing will be greatly enhanoed in difficulty, from the fact that the Confed- eracy lacks for rolling stock and means of repairing its railroads. The result will bo that communication at first will be exceedingly slow and difficult, and, in a little while, from the complete wearing out of cars and tracks, impossible. But while the rebels will lose many conditions of great value, in being forced^ upon their sole remaining line of defence,- they will gain one immense advantage. Every foot that they yield enables them 1 to concentrate upon the shorter inner line of defence, wh;lc it correspondingly weakens us by lengthening our commu- nication as wo advance. Our armies are now so far from their bases of supply that a very slight interruption would be fatal; it is necessary to guard absolutely against any such contingency by leaving a small army at every point as we leave it. Tly# weakens enormously our capacities for offence, and is one of the main reasons why theNorth is obliged to call for men incessantly, iu order to preserve its. ad- vances and at tho same time render its" movements effectivr:. The battles of the present year have, in magnitude, exceeded previous campaign, stand out in contests arc: FrJ lorville, Gettv amauga, to these, we affairs, name by o Amo] checked- cases he drew off his army without de- moralization, and retired at his leisure,- and in good order, and unmolested. Chickamauga was a greater contest than Chattanooga, but was not decisive; it effected no important results, and left the respective armies not materially different from what they were before the engagement. Champion Hills was decisire, for it decided the fate of Vicksburg, and gave us material advantages in the cutting off of Texas from the Confederacy. Chat- tanooga was also decisive, for it gave us "Roar. Tennessee, and has thrown the East' rebels ienee- back upon their last liuo of - «-.*.-• -

BRAVE BOYS ARE THEY.DEDICATED TO THE SISTERS 0PODRT«lHS

TEERS BY HENRY CLAY WORK.

Heavily falls the rain,Wild are the breezes to-night;

But 'neath the roof the hours as they fly,Are happy and calm, and bright.

Gallierino; round our fireside,Though it be summer time,

We sil and talk of brothers abroad,Forgetting the midnight chime.Chorus—Brave boys are they !

Gone at their country's call,And yet, and yet, we cannot forge1

That many brave boys must fal

Under the homestead roof,Ne-tled so cosy and warm,

While soldiers sleep with little ov naught,To shelter them from the storm.

Resting on grassy couches,Pillowed on hillocks damp

Of martial fare, how little we know,Till brothers are in the camp.

Brave boys, &c.

Thinking no less of them,Loving our country the more,

Wi> sent them forth to fight for the flagTheir fathers before them bore.

Though the great tear drop started,This was our parting trust;

God bless you, boys ! we'll welcome you hoiniWhen rebels are laid in the dust.

Brave boys, &c.

May the bright wings of loveGuard them wherever they roam ;

The time has come when brothers must fightAnd si*tets must pray at home.

Oh! the dread field of battle tSoon to l-e strewn with graves:

If brothers fall may they bury them whereOur banner in triumph waves.

AFTER ALL.BY WILLIAM WINTER.

The apples are ripe in the orchard,The work of the reaper is done,

And the golden woodlands reddenIn the blood of the dying sun.

At the cottage-door the grandsireSits pale in his easy chair,

While the gentle wind of twilightl'lays with his silver hair.

A woman is kneeling beside him ;A fair young head is pressed,

In the first wild passion of sorrow,Against his aged breast.

And far from over the distanceThe faltering echoes come

Of the Hying blast of trumpet,And the rattling roll of drum.

And the grandsire speaks in a whisper :" The end no man can see ;

But we give him to his country,And we give our prayers to Thee."

The violets star the meadows,The rose buds fringe the door,

And over the grassy orchardThe pink-white blossoms pour.

But the grandsire's chair is empty,The cottage is dark and still;

There's a nameless grave in the battle-field.And a new one under the hill,

And a pallid, tearless womanBy the cold hearth sits alone,

Ami ihe old clock in the cornerTicks on with a steady drone.

SKLF RELIANCE OF TvESTEIlN SOLDIERS.

If there are men in the world giftedwith the most thorough self-reliance,Western soldiers are the men. To fightin the graud anger of battla, seems toine to require less manly fortitude, afterall, than to bear without murmuring theswann of little troubles that vex thec;mi|i and march. No matter where orwhen you halt, there they are at onceat lnuue. They know precisely what todo tiis', and they do it. I have seenthem march into a strange region at dark,ami ;t 1 it,t>&t. iis soon ns iircs would showwell, they were twinkling all over tbefield, the fMbley ooues rising like thework <if enchantment everywhere, and thelittle dog-tents lying snug to the ground,as il Hke the mushrooms, they had grownthere, and the aroma of coffee and tor-tured baron, suggesting creature com-fi rts, and the whole economy of a lifein canvas cities moving as steadily on asif it had not intermitted. The move-ments of regiments, you know are asblind as fate Nobody can tell to-nightwhere be will be tomorrow, and yetwith the first glimmer of morning t i ecamp is aptir, and the preparations beginfur staying there forever ; cozy littlecabins of red cedar neatly fitted, are go-ing mi : here a boy is making a fireplaceand quite artistically plastering it withthe inevitable red earth ; he has founda crane somewhere, and swung up there-on a two li gged dinner pot; there a fel-low is finishing out a chimney with brickfrom IHI old kiln of secession proclivities:yonder a bower house closely woven ofevergreens is almost ready for the occu-pants ; tables, stools, bedsteads, are tum-bled together by the roughest of carpen-ters; the avenues between the lines oftcrt.s are cleared and smoothed—''po-liced," in camp phrase—little seats withcedar awnings iu front of the tents givea cottage look ; while the interior, in a\\ rutie w;iy, has a genuine home-like air.The bit of a looking-glass hangs againstthe cotteu wall; a handkerchief of a car-pet just before the 'bunk' marks the step-ping off to the land of dreams; a violincas e is s'runtr up to a convenient hook,flanked by a, gorgeous picture of somehero of somewhere, mounted upon ahorserampant and saltant, "and what a leagthof tuil behind !"

The business of living has fairly begunagain.

But at 5 o'clock some dingy morning,obedient to sudden orders, the regimentsinarch away in good cheer; the armywagoners go streaming and swearing afterthem ; the beat of the drum grows faint-er ; the last straggler is out of sight; tbe

canvas city has vanished like a vision.—On such a morning and amid such ascene, I have loitered till it seemed as ifa busy city had passed put of sight, leav-ing DOthing behind for all that life andlight but empty desolation. "Will youwouder much if I tell you that I havewatched such a vanishing with a pang oregret; that the trampled field lookedim to me, worn smooth and beautifuby the touch of those brave feet whosiowners have trod upon thorns with song—feet, alas, how many, that shall neveagain iu all this coming and going worldmake music upon the old thresholds !—And how many such sites of perishedcities this war has made, how many bondof good-fellowship have been rent to bunited no more !

REOON'NOISANCE ON " PRIVATE ACCOUNT.'

Every woed, ravine, hill, field, is explored; the productions, animal and vegetable, are inventoried, and one day renders these soldiers as thoroughly conversant with the region round about as ilthey had been dwelling there a life-timeThey have tasted water from everyspring and well, estimated the corn tothe acre, tried the watermelons, gagedthe peaches, knocked down the persimuions, milked the cows, roasted the pig?picked the chickens; they know wholive here and there and yonder, thewhereabouts of the native boys, the namesof the native girls. If there is a curiouscave, a queer tree, a strange rook any-where about, they know it. You cansee them with the chisel, hammer andhaversack, tugging up the mountain orscrambling down the ravine in a geological 'passion that would have won theright hand of fellowship from Hugh Mil-ler, and homo they como laden with spec-imens that would enrich a cabinet. Ihave in my possession the most exquisiteof soil buds just ready to open, beautifulshells, rare minerals, collected by theserough and dashing naturalists. If youthink the rank and file have no taste forthe beautiful, it is time you rememberedof what material our armies are made.—Nothing will oatch a soldier's eye quick-er than a patch of velvet moss, or a freshlittle flower, and many a letter leavesthe camp enriched with faded souvenirsof these expeditions. I said that noth-ing will catch an old campaigner's eyequicker than a flower, but I was wrong,—a dirty, ragged baby will. I haveseen a thirteen dollar man expend a dol-arfor trinkets to hang about the dingy

neck of an uruhin that at homo and threeyears ago he would not have touchedwith the tongs. Do you say, it is for;he mother's sake ? You huvc only tolee the bedraggled, coarse, lank, tobacco-chewing dam—is it wicked for me touse that word in such a fashiou?—toabandon that idea, like a foundling, tohe tender mercies of the first door-step.

HOW THE SOLDIERS SLEEP.

You would, I think, wonder to see mene right down in the dusty road, underhe full noon sun of Tennessee and Ala-ama, and fall asleep in a minute. I have•assed hundreds of such sleepers. Ary spot is a good matress ; the flaps ofblanket quite a downy pillow. Youould wonder, I think, to see a wholertnv corps, as I have, without the shredf a tent to bless themselves with, lyingnywhere and everywhere in an all-nightain and not a growl nor a grumble. Ias curious to see whether the pluck andood nature was washed out of them,nd so I made my way out of the snug

dry quarters I am ashamed to say I oc-cupied, at live in the morning, to seewhat water had done with them. Noth-ine ! Each soaked blanket hatched outas jolly a fellow as you wish to see—mud-dy, dripping, half floundered, forth theycame, wringing themselves out as theywent, with the look ol a troop of " wetdown " roosters in a full rain storm, plu-mage at half mast, but hearts trumps ev-ery time.

Foreign Correspondence of the Argus.

OVER THE ALPS.LAUSANNE NOV. 9tb.

The valley of Lauterbrunnen is amere gorge between mountains. Itsentrance is between rocky precipices,which look frowningly upon you.—Through it runs the Black Lutschiae,which is fed by glaciers and mountainstreams. The village of Lauterbrun-nen with difficulty adapts itself to thenarrowness of the valley, and uponono side the mountains slanting moregradually, offer a place for the herds-man to construct his chalet, and thefarmer to cultivate his field.

The glory of the vale, and thatwhich draws many a traveler, is theStaubbach. It is not Niagara: itsmusic is not like ton thousand thun-ders ; nor does it dash over the preci-pice a boiling sea. But it's a mere veilof water—a waving column. Boldlyand unitedly it rushes over the look,eight hundred feet above, but ere itreaches the earth below, its enemy thewind, attacks it and scatters it in everydirection, and diffuses it into spray.—Yet with skill it unites its wanderingforces as it touches the earth, formsonce more, and joins the phalanx ofthe Lutschine—the grand army of thecascades of the valley.

Having spent a night in this gorge,on the morrow our company of threeset out for a grand promenade. Wewere the representatives of Ireland,Wisconsin, and Michigan : and withstrong limbs and ardent hearts we werebound for an adventure—no less a onethan crossing the Wergern Alp, andreaching, ere night, the valley of Grin-delwaid, twenty miles distant. Whatared we though old fogies at a dis-

tance had said that it was too late toross the mountains ? What cared we

though the timid were sure that theenow covered the passes, and winter:iadset in upon them ?

Our good landlord at Lauterbrun-nen had said it wasn't so; our ownthoughts, too, said amen to this, and wewere bound at least to make the trial,and experience for ourselves the tem-perature of the Wergern !

Behold us theD, with our packsthrown over our shoulders and ourAlpine stocks in hand, bidding bonjonr

princes to adorn the Court of the Alps,attended their monarch and added im-portance to the assembly. Waa thereever a nobler king, or a grander court?Republican that I am, I could not buttake off my hat, and cry vive le roibefore him.

In the presence of this illustriouscompany we ate, humble as we wereAnd as we sat, suddenly we heard themusic of the Court begin. And whatthink you it was ? A harp of a thou-sand strings ? Or the lyre of Orpheus?No, but it was the grand organ of theAlps—the avalanche! whoso music,soft at ftrst, becomes at length like thethunder of heaven. Then above theCourt thin clouds of saow, driven bythe winds, curled up majestically," white and sulphury, like foam fromthe roused ocean of deep hell!"

Think you not the scene paid usfor one morning's toil ? Think younot it was distinction to dine in thepresence of these monarchs of moun-tains? Come and do likewise, and seehow you then regard it.

We spent an hour here, rested ourweary limbs and filled our empty stom-achs. Then we were again upon themarch. The summit was passed andthe descent commenced. We notedthe forest of withered pines, with itsdead trunks all white and scraggy,stripped and bavkless which remindedByron " of himself and family." "Wenoted the rocky precipices which tow-ered upon our right and upon our left.We noted the hamlet of the herdsman,

occupied in summer but deserted inwinter. We noted at length beneathus the Valley of Grindelwald, whichseemed to be near but kept receding aswe proceeded. The shades of nighthad fallen ere we found ourselves atthe inn of Grindelwald. " Supper andto bed " was our cry that night. Ouradventure had been crowned with suc-cess. We had proved the fallacy ofold cronies' predictions and women'stears, and had crossed the Wergernamong the last of its voyagers.

ALWAYS CHEERFUL.—-"Why this con-stant happy flow of spirits?"

to mine host and settiDg out for ourourney.

Having crossed the Lufschine, weivound up a steep ascent by the ineva-Ie "zig-zag." Up, up, we toiled,

passing through a hamlet and its sur-onnding cultivation. Now a young-ter comes running out of a chalet to

give us a serenade with his squeakingnouth-piece, partly for our pleasure,rincipnlly for our pence. Now we seewo diminutive mountaineers, overvhose heads four summers have passed,lerforming wonderful feats at wrest-ng and rough and-tumbling-all, allor us ! Now a bouquet of doubtfuleauties is stuck before us; and now a

jeggarly looking fellow kindly offers tojuide us over the mountain. Howmany attentions we do receive ! Thewhole hamlet seem3 determined toplease us ! But at length we leaveit behind, and its crowd of pleasantpeople, borrowing that we could notremain longer in such agreeable so-ciety !

And now as we ascend higher—thevalley of Lauterbrunnen becomes small-er and smaller; the Lutschine dwin-dles into a mere brook ; the Staubbach,which had looked down so haughtilyupon us, was in turn looked down up-on ; the village seemed a boy's play-

and everything below diminu-tiveness itself. The weather joinedwith the scenery to give us pleasure.—Never was it more beautiful for climbing the mountains. Tho sun wasblight, but not oppressive ; the air wasbracing and invigorating. The breathof Autumn had changed the foliage ofthe mountain iorests, and produced avariety of colors surpassingly beauti-ful. No snow appeared save thatwhich enveloped tho summits of theBernese Alps, which we were approach-ing.

At noon we sat down near the topof the Wergern, and took our lunch,which we had brought with us. Wedined in the presence of an illustriouscompany. Just across the wild gorgewhich lay before and beneath us, theJungfrau and the Deut'd'Argent satupon their eternal thrones.

The Fruits of Victory.The military prospect baa, within the

last few days, become so hopeful that wemay confidently anticipate the substan-tial annihilation of the military powerof the rebels before midsummer of nextyear. This favorable prospect is not areason for relaxing, but, on the contraryfor invigorating our military operations.The rebels should bo aiiowud no breath-ing spell; no interval for such partialrecuperation as their enfeebled resourcesmay permit. They must, with all possi-ble energy, ho pushed to the wall. Thewar must be ended before they can reapanother harvest to replenish their sup-plies of food; before the aspect of Euro-pean politics changes to our disadvantagebefore the inflation of our currency cul-minates in a commercial crisis. Muchmay be expected from Gen. Grant's im-mediate operations : and as a wintercampaign is perfectly feasible in eueh aclimate as that of Georgia, we may, per-haps without being over-sauguiue, expectto see the whole region west of the Alleghanies and extending down to the Gulffully recovered before spring. If, mean-while, Gen. GUmore captures Charlestonthe shrukeu remnant of the rebellionmay easily be disposed of in a vigorousspring campaign.

With this cheering prospect, we mayfairly demand that our successes shallbegin to bear some of tbe appropriatefruits of success. The time has comewhen there is not only no excuse, butnot even a colorable pretext, for interfer-ing with the ordioary course of judicialproceedings in the loyal States. Eventhe blindest and most servile partisans ofthe administration must now confess thatillegal searches, seizures and imprison-ments cannot be justified on the pleathat they are required by the public safe-ty. The country has a right to demandthat the strong measures which have forthe last two years, made the military in-dependent of and superior to tho civilauthority, shall immediately be discon-tinued. The reason (or pretense) onwhich the negro policy of the adminis-tration was originally advocated havingceased, that policy should cease also.—The original argument was, that slaveryisjthe main prop of the rebellion, the la-bor of the slaves being the means bywhich the rebel armies are supported inthe field. We do not insist on the factthat this argument has been refuted bythe logic of events, there being at presenta million more slaves in tho area not yetrecovered than there were before tho war.These slaves have been sent there for se-curity from the slave States iu possessionof our arms. Had we left slavery un-molested, this million of laborers wouldhave been contributing during tho lastsummer to the resources of the Union,instead of to those of the rebellion. Butthis consideration belongs to the past,and we will not now press it. The pointwo wish to present is, that from this timeforth, the labor of slaves can contributenothing to the support of the rebellion.In all reasonable probability the rebelshave gathered the last crops they willgather before the destruction of their ar-mies. What is planted next spring can-not be harvested before next summerand autumn, when tho rebel armies willbe past succor. It is only as a warmeasure that Mr. Lincoln has ever at-tempted to justify his proclamation ; buteven if it had ever any efficacy as a warmeasure, it is new to plainly obsolete in

that view that the argument can no long-er be urged. It ought, therefore, to beabandoned (or at least ignored) in all fu-ture proceedings.

Our Generals, if not unduly interferedwith, are competent to give the coup degrace to the tottering rebellion, and theadministration would do well, while giv-ing them efficient support, to devotereasonable amount of attention to themomentuous political problems thatemerge in proportion as the rebellionwanes. The wisest thing it can do withthe proclamation is to cause it to be un-derstood that it will not take anotherstep in the matter, and leave all thequestions of property involved to the de-cision of the Supreme Court. In thepresent posture of affairs no politicalproceeding would contribute so muchto the termination of the war, and thespeedy pacification of the South. InJanuary and February tho leadingpratical question with the planters willbe, what crops they shall plant the com-ing season. If the war is soon to end, itis neither for their interest nor for oursthat they should devote their fine cottonlands to cereals. The country does notwant the enormous overplus of bread-stuffs that would result from this direc-tion of Southern industry. The countrydoes need tbe great addition to its wealthwhich would be made by a successful cot-ton crop the coming year. Soon afterthe close of the war we must return tospecie payments; and we need to pro-vide, by all reasonable means, against theshook to business and tho fall in valueswhich will naturally accompany thechange. A large export of cotton wouldsave us the necessity of exporting anequal value in gold, and it would like-wise give increased value to our bread-stuffs by reopening for them a most im-portant market in the South. The coun-try needs this great resource. If thereis any statesmanship at Washington, thegovernment will do its best to induce theSouth to make a cotton crop next year.

Another most important questiongrows out of the hopeful military' situa-tion. The President who succeeds Mr,Lincoln will not be elected on a war issue—which will be obsolete before Mr. Lin-coln goes out of office—but on political is-sues growing out of the condition of thecountry at and after the return of peace.The subdued South will have even agreater interest in these questions thanthe victorious North. The South willbe fairly entitled, unless wo abandon re-publican principles, to have a voice, andto their proportionate weight, in the ad-ministration of the government in therestored Union. Every facility and en-couragement should therefore be given tothe Southern States to participate in thePresidential election. They should beallowed such participation because thereit is just in itself and because are noother means so promising for revivingUnion sentiment and fellow feeling withthe North among the people of that alien-ated section.

From the Chicago Times.THE CAMPAIGNS OF 1863.

A REVIEW OS THE YEAR.

Every thing indicates that the cam-paign of 1863 has reached its end, andthat, for the next four or five months, ac-tive operations will not be resumed upona scale of any great magnitude. Meadohas desisted from tho pursuit of Lee andfallen back to the hither bank of thefriendly Kappahannock; Grant, owingto the necessity of accumulating supplies,and tho execrable character of the moun-tain roads over which his advance mustnecessarily be made, will not be likelyto leave Chattanooga.at present. Long-street, by the defeat of Bragg, had beencompelled to raise the siege of Knoxvilleaud abondon the project of recapturingEast Teunessee ; by which quiet prevailsat all the prominent points along theline of Federal operations.

On the first day of January of thepresent year the Federal army, underGen. Eosecrans, was burying its deadwhich had fallen the day previous in thetremeuduous battle of Murfreesboro, oras generally termed Stone River. Thatsame night Bragg, under cover of dark-ness, withdrew his dishearttr^d forces,aud took up a new line of occupationupon the south side of Duck River.

Thus, at the opening of 1863, the reb-els held, west of the Mississippi, all thecountry south of the Arkansas river, au<on the east of the Father of Waters, n ^ly or all, south of a line which commencedon the river at Vicksburg, ran up theYazoo river to Yazoo City, then ran oirregularly to the northeast till it reach-ed Bragg iu Tennessee on Duck river.—From this point it continued eastward,including East Teunessee, until it reached its terminus in the East somewherenot far from Fredericksburg, on the Po-tomac River. The States held by therebels were about oue half of Arkansas,nearly all of Louisiana, Texas, aud Mis-sissippi, all of Alabama, Georgia, Flori-da, South and North Carolina, with tri-fling exceptions, and the west part ofTennessee and Virginia. Tho Federalforces held two hostile southern States,Missouri and Kentucky ; held half ofArkansas, half of Tennessee, one-third ofVirginia, and had effected lodgments onthe coasts of all the others.

How much have wo gained during thepresent year ? Nothing in Virginia ; theremaining half of Tennessee ; of Missis-sippi about oue third, or, practically, thecountry lying west of the railroad thatruns from Memphis to Mobile ; and thenavigation of tho Mississippi. In Ar-kansas, tho chief difference between thebeginning and end of the year is, thatthat then the rebels occupied the Arkan-sas River, which is now occupied by us.

From this it will be seen that that thegain in territory on the part of the Fed-eral Government is very small.

Strategically, we have made greaterprogress than in territory, At the be-

ginning of the year the rebels held Vioka*burg and Port Hudson, through which1

they were able to avail themselves of thffenormous productions of Texas and west-ern Louisiana. At Duck river theyguarded Chattanooga, the door whichopened into the very heart of the Con'federacy, and also secured to themselvesthe posession of East Tennessee, the gra-nary of the Confederacy. From Texatthey obtained immense supplies of cattle,and from East Tennessee, hogs, grain,and saltpetre without limit.

In capturing Vicksburg and PorlHudson, we cut them off from the livestock of Texas, and in getting East Tenn-essee, we deprived them of an inexhausti'ble source of cereals aud a vital constitH-ent iD the manufacture of gunpowder. lathese two positions they have sustainedan irreparable loss. Tho plenty whichreigned in the South during the year*preceding hau departed, and in its placecomes the grim monarch Famine.

In other respects we have inflictedslight damage upon the Confederacy.—The siege of Charleston has, as yet, don*nothing more than close that port againstvessels running the blockade. At Wil-mington, we have, by a large and expen-sive addition to our squadron, succeededin stopping much of the contraband tradewhile the same is the case at Browns-ville, in Texas.

The victories at Vicksburg and Chat-tanooga, especially the latter, give u*other advantages, which, however, arerather prospective than present. Thenext rebel line of defence> owing to thesituation of streams and railroads in thoSouth, must be formed with its left onMobile, its right covering Richmond,-and its centre fronting Grant at Atlanta.-It is only by thus reforming their linethat they will be uble to preserve eonvmunication between the wings— a condi-tion absolutely essential to the strengthand integrity of this cordon, of defence.Small bodies may for a while disputethe possession of such points as Jackson,-Moridan and Dalton, while it is certaiuthat guerrillas will infest the whole coun-try north cf the new rebel lino; but altsuch operations are irregular and valde-lcss beyond the temporary annoyance'they may cause an advancing enemy, asthoy do not at all effect the vital issueswhich must be met and settled at MobileAtlanta and Richmond.

This new line upon which the rebel ar-mies are thus forced is their last, and byfar the most indefensible one which theyhave at any time occupied. Its air linelength is much shorter than any of theothers, but its actual length, owing tothe tortuosity of the railroads which con-nect it, so much greater. The condition'of preserving their communication fromwing to wing will be greatly enhanoed indifficulty, from the fact that the Confed-eracy lacks for rolling stock and meansof repairing its railroads. The resultwill bo that communication at first willbe exceedingly slow and difficult, and, ina little while, from the complete wearingout of cars and tracks, impossible.

But while the rebels will lose manyconditions of great value, in being forcedupon their sole remaining line of defence,-they will gain one immense advantage.Every foot that they yield enables them1

to concentrate upon the shorter innerline of defence, wh;lc it correspondinglyweakens us by lengthening our commu-nication as wo advance. Our armies arenow so far from their bases of supply thata very slight interruption would be fatal;it is necessary to guard absolutely againstany such contingency by leaving a smallarmy at every point as we leave it. Tly#weakens enormously our capacities foroffence, and is one of the main reasonswhy the North is obliged to call for menincessantly, iu order to preserve its. ad-vances and at tho same time render its"movements effectivr:.

Profitable Investments.Tho Piiiladelp! ia North American

gives Borao excellent advice to those who•wish to invest money, It is well for allwho are ia funds to heed the counsel:"Though money has been temporarilyscareo, capital continues abundant; acdthe rceuut tumble in the stock marketbrought capitalists to n realizing sense ofthe unreliable character of many of thesecurities deult in. It is greatly to' thecredit of the government that its loans,of all tho securities daily dealt in on themarket, have maintained their iutegritvof price better than almost anything else.Its five twenty year six per cent, loan,the interest on which is promptly paidin gold, has been subscribed to, allthrough tho pressure, in the money mar-ket, at an average of more than two mill-ions per day. And what is not tho leastgratifying tact in connection with thedailj largo subscriptions to this popularloan, t«!arcely any of it is returned to thomarket for sale. -It is taken for ipvest-roent, and is held with unfaltering confi-dence in its reliab hty. And why shouldit not bo? It is seen that the govern-ment now, after two years of the mostgigantic war that tho world has everknown, experience no difficulty in com-manding the necessary means to prose-cute it, or paying regularly tho interestin gold as it falls due. If this can bedone while the war is being waged, whocan anticipate any difficulty in readilya'complisiiing it wlieu the war 18 to beended 5 What better investment, then,than the 'Five-Twenty' government loan?Uut if any doubt, let us refer to the'statistics furnished by the census tables•of the various nations of the world. Thefacts which they present will prove themost satisfactory mode of dispelling thenumberless gloomy iipprehensions whicharo being continually conjured up bythose who are di posed to exaggerate theextent of the calamity occasioned by ourrebellion. A reference to the state ofmost of the prosperous nations of theold world clearly disproves such a posi-tion, and shows that the highest condi-tions of national advancement have notbeen materially affected by the extendedwars in which those nations have beenimmeraorially engaged, and that a heavynational indebtedness has not proved anunmitigated evil.

"For instanco, Great Britain, Franceand the Netherlands will undoubtedly beoonceded to represent the highest pros-perity that has been attained by any ofthe European nations. And yet no na-tions have been called upon to endurefiercer or more prolonged wars, domesticand foreign than they. The effect hasbeen, unquestionably, to incur au enor-mous national indebtedness; but neithertheir wars nor their indebtedness havehad the effect to destroy their elasticity,nor to check the progress of their gene-ral prosperity. The result would havebeen different, probably, if these nationsbad been falling into decay, instead of be-ing, as they really were, in a state of de-velopment; and in this respect their caesresembles our own, with enormous ad-vantages in our favor. These nations,while undergoing the trials of war, wereoppressed by the evils of an im-menso exodus of their people, caused bythe deusity of their population, the im-possibility to provide occupation for themthe low price of labor, and the scarcityof territory. Compared with our owncountry, they possessed slight room forfuture development; they were settled inevery part and no vast territory lay in-vitingly open to encourage enterprise andsettlement. Their groat problem hasever been what to do with their surpluspopulation, which, in its turn, has soughtnew fields for adventure and self-supportin countries like our own, where an illim-itable territory waits to be developed,and where incalculable resources inviteindustry and energy. The encourage-ment to be derived from these facts andcomparisons of circumstances is verygreat, and to the mind of any dispassion-ate reasoner is conclusive that the courseof this great country is onward and up-ward, and that its credit will live unim-paired to the end."

The Richmond Whig of the 3d talksin the followitg plain fashion :

" With no other motive or thoughtthan to advance the public interest, wewould again suggest to tho Presidentthe advantage of reconstructing hisCabinet and calling to hie aid the veryablest intellects of the country. Wenave a Department of State that hasnot been able for nearly three years toestablish relations with any other State,a Treasury Department that has failedto keep its finances from running to ru-iD, a War Department in the hands ofa chief whoso studies and course of lifehas been peculiarly civic, a Navy De-partment -without a navy, a PostofficeDepartment with a very shackling sys-tem of mails, a Department of Justicevacant. The business of each depart-ment separately shows tho want of amore masterly hand, and the unitedpowers of their chief councils, if coun-cils are ever held, fail to supply thoquantum of wisdom the country noeds.We are getting into deep waters, anda feeling of dread is shaking the soulsof the people. There is nothing thePresident can do that will so reanimatetheir hearts and stimulate their confi-dence ia an affection for him as thecalling to his side as his daily advisers,a Cabinet of the wisest, truest andmoat experienced men in the country,regardless of what may have been theirformer political associations. The timeis propitious, the occasion urgent, andtho people anxiously expectant for hisown continuing capacity for usefulnessand future fame, as well as on accountof the rarely necessitous and exigentcondition of the country.

From New Orleans.New York, Dec. 7.

New Orleans letters state the forceinterfering with the navigation of theMississippi, below the mouth of RedRiver, is estimated at 3,000, underGeneral Dick Taylor, and a sort of fly-ing corps appearing from time to timeat different points of the river, preyingon its commerce. The merchants ofNew Orleans and traders generally areseriously alarmed at the audacity, fre-quency and success of these attacks,und have applied to the millitary au-tborties to have all river boats armedand manned by a lew artillerists.

Major General Washbum, with hiscommand, is moving in tho direction ofMatagorda, with every prospect ofcapturing the place. Onr forces willthen have a footing on the main land,with a fine harbor to anchor ourvesselsin, and a good base of operations.

The Commutation Clause-New York, Dec. 9.

A curtailment of the list ofdisabilities which now exempts perosnsfrom military serviee will also be urg-ed in Congress.

ANN ARBOR MICHIGAN.

FRIDAY MORNING, DEC. 11,1863.

The President's Message.We had some hoped to give our rea-

ders tho President's Message to-day, butreceived it at too late an hour. We arothe more reconciled to the delay, how-ever, from the fact that in the process oftelegraphing from Washington, it nasbeen go horribly mangled as in manyplaces to be almost unintelligible. Nextweek we shall hope to give our readers]acorrect copy.

The Message is silent as to tho opera-tions of the Army and Navy, leaving thecommunity to get the information theylooked for in it from tho DepartmentReports.

Nearly one-third of it is given to adiscussion of the rebellion, and it is ac-companied by a proclamation offeringconditional pardon to those engaged inthe rebellion, not therein excepted, andmarks out a plan for the reorganizationof the State Governments. We shallgivo this proclamation with the messagenext week.

The City Quota~$100 Bounty Offered.Pursuant to a call made by the Com-

mon Council of this city, a meeting ofthe property tax payers was held at theCourt House, on Thursday evening1 oflast week, for the purpose of consider-ing the subject offering a bounty to vol-unteers to fill tho quota of the city un-der tho last call of the President

The meeting was largely attended,in fact the Court House could hardlyhave held more, and after considerablediscussion the following resolution wasadopted, with but two negative votes :

Resolved, That the Common Councilof the city of Ann Arbor are hereby au-thorized to offer one hundred dollarsbounty for each and every volunteerwho may be enlisted and mustered intothe United States service, and creditedto the city of Ann Arbor; and that thesaid Council are hereby further author-ized to issue bonds to the amount ofseven thousand and nine hundred dol-lars, (seventy-nine men being the quotaassigned to tho city of Ann Arbor,) andbearing interest at the rate of seven (7)per cent per annum, payable annually;and that said bonds shall be paid inthr^e equal instalments by a tax leviedon the taxable property of said city ofAnu Arbor, as follows, to wit: Thefirst instalment to be paid on the firstday of January, A. D. 1806, and thesecond instalment on the first day ofJanuary 1867, and the third instalmentto be paid on the first day of January1868.

At a regular meeting of the Council,held on.Monday evening last, the fol-lowing resolution was adopted :

Resolved, By the Mayor, Recorder,and Common Council of the city of AnnArbor, that we issue the bonds of theeity of Ann Arbor to raise money topay volunteers to fill the quota of thecity by the draft appointed for the fifthof January next, a meeting of the prop-erty tax payers convened for that pur-pose having, by a Diva voce vote, author-ized the Common Council to issue bondsto the amount of seven thousand ninehundred dollars for that purpose, eachvolunteer mustered into the UnitedStates servico and credited to the cityto receive one hundred dollars.

The Council also appointed PhilipBach agent for tbo city to sell thebonds and pay tho volunteers.

The tax payers and Council havingacted, it is now time for our ciiizens tobe moving. The fifth of January isclose at hand, and if the quota of thecity is to be filled somebody must work.There is no time to spare. It is volun-teers or conscripts. Let it be volun-teers. The " First Class," men are es-pecially interested. What do they say ?

Gen. GRANT has ordered Gen.SHERMAN to the command of all theforces of East Tennessee, and (he or-der has been ratified at Washington.—This will relieve Gen. FOSTER, recentlyappoined to supersede Gen. BURNSIDE.

S 3 " WM. ASHLEY, Jr., of GrandRapids, was robbed in that city onMonday evening last, of $4,500, whilegoing from the Express office to hisresidence. A reward of $100 is offeredfor the detection of the robbers.

EiT invite the .attention of ourfriends who have money to invest to theadvertisement in another column, head-ed " U . S. 5-20 'S." These lettersmean United States bonds, runningtwenty years, with the privilege of re-deeming in gold at five years from date.They bear six per cent interest paya-ble semi-annually in gold, and at thepresent rate of premium on that oncecommon coin, are as good as the bestsecured business paper bearing nineper cent. We know of no better in-vestment for money. In another col-umn we extract an article from thePhiladelphia North American pertinentto the subject.

^^"Indications are that Congresswill immediately either largely increasethe $300 commutation of drafted men,or repeal it altogether, and requireeither the man or a substitute. Wethink the latter will be done. In viewof this no stone should be left unturn-ed to fill the quotas of the severaltowns of this county. If bounties willnot get men at home, let active agentsbe put in the field to get them else-where. Tb«re ie no time to lo»».

Congressional.Congress convened in annual session

on Monday last. The Senate was call-ed to order by the Vice President, andthe new members sworn in.

The House was called to order bytho Clerk of the last Hous3, EmersonEthridgo, and the radical majority forth-with proceeded to nullify an act of thelast Congress defining tho duties of theClerk, the obeying of which was likelyto keep some of their friends " out inthe cold " until after the election of aSpeaker. This act was passed to ena-ble a Clerk to control the organization,but in the recess of Congress that officerhaving somewhat changed his position,the radicals could not trust him to exe-cute the law, and therefore took thecompleting the rolls into their ownhands. But as the Speaker was elect-ed before the members were sworn inthey probably considered themselvesnot bound by the law.

This having been done, the Hon.SCIIUYLER COLKAX, of Ind., was electedSpeaker on the first ballot. The votestood : Colfax 101, Cox 42, Dawson 12,Muliory 10, Stebbios 8, King 4, Blair 2,Styles 1.

And this concluded the day's busi-ness.

The House completed its organiza-tion on Tuesday by electing Mr. Mc-PIIKUSON, of Pa., Clerk ; Mr. ORDWAY,

of N. H., Sergeant-at-Arms; Mr. IRAGOODENOUGII, Doorkeeper; and W. S.KINO, of Minnesota, Postmaster.

j£3£*Sinee the last advance and re-treat of the Army of the Potomac—or,lest that may sound harsh, we will saythe last grand reconnoissance of thatarmy—we should think that the powersthat be would begin to see the impossi-bility of reaching Richmond by the landroute. We do not believe it practica-ble, at least with any army the Govern-ment is likely to concentrate in thoeffort. The route to Richmond is bythe Peninsula, and up the James Riversid«. That route Gen. MCCLELLAN

would have taken bad he not beencrowded over to the York River by theformidable rebel ram Manassas—theram which so troubled the dreams ofSecretary WELLES, and which, but forthe arrival of the little Monitor, wouldhave finished our nary in those waters.And MCCLELLAN would have even suc-ceeded by the York routs had Dot hisplans been sacrificed by the withdrawalof MCDOWELL. By the James River,or even the York, the communicationscannot be cut, and with a co-operatingfleet on the James, Eichmond may bereached. Will the politicians permitit ?

U3C*0n Monday, Mr. WASHBCRN, ofIllinois, introduced a resolution intothe House, ordering a gold medal forGen. GRANT. It is also intimated thatCongress will create the office of Lieu-tenant General, and that GRANT willbe appointed. Gen. GRANT is now therising man, and may continue to rise ifhe keeps away fiom the Army of thePotomac—and the politicians there-about.

The Township of Lodi held aspecial election on Tuesday last and bya vote of 121 to 7 Toted a bounty of$200 to volunteers.

Seeing the advertisement of your Society offering to give your me.ticine to clergymen forthe poor of their parishes, I ootained a bottle fora poorgirl of my congregation, who had long been nearly help-less from P.heumatism, and strange to say, that onebottle cured her entirely. I write this hoping it mayaid the Society in its efforts to introduce the medicine,and bless those who may need such a remtdy ; and Iuse strong terms, as I believe its merits will fully justifythe most superlative forms of Bpeech.

Yours, Respectfully,

kfup»From the Savannah News.

Gen • Eardee and the Straggler.We recently heard a camp anecdote,

•which, we think, ia worthy of beingpreserved in print. While on a forcedmarch in some of the army movementsin Mi Bisbippi hist summer, Gen. Har-dee came up wlth'a straggler who hadfallen some distance in tho rear of hiscommand. The General ordered himforward, when the soldier replied thathe was weak, bcoken down, not hav-ing had even halt rations for severaldays.

That's hard," replied tho General,"but you must push forward, my goodfellow, and join your command, or theProvost Guard will take you in hand."

The soldier halted, and, looking upat the General, asked—

"Are you Gen. Hardee ?""Yes," replied the General."Didn't -you write Hardee's Tactios ?""Yes'1 '"Well. General, I have studied them

tactics, and know'em by heart. You'vegot a order tbar to double column atbalf distance, aint you?"

"Well," asked tho General, "whathas that order to do with your case?"

"I'm a good soldier, General, andobey all that is possible to be obeyed ;but if your orders can show mo a orderin your tactics, to doable distance onhalf rations, then I'll f.ive in."

The General, with a hearty laugh,admited that there were no tactics tomeet the case, and putting spurs to hishorse rode forward.

Items.To lie a littlo ia cot possible; he who

lies, lies an entire lie.

The worst feather a military man canwear in his cap is the white one.

Opportunities, like oggs, must behatched when they are fresh.

The selfish tallow clisindler hates thesunnhine; he thinks oi it as a formida-ble rival in buisneps.

Praise may bo ns hurtful as censure.It is as well to be cast into a pit asblown into the air.

You cannot dream yourself into acharacter; you must hammer and forgeyourself one.
