THE FUNNY CORNER BARBARA FRIETCHIE. BTJOHX G. WirtTTIEK. From the Atlantic Monthly. Up from the meadows rich with corn, Clear in the cool September morn, The cluster spires of Frederick stand, Green-walled by the bills of Maryland. Boond about them orchards sweep, Apple and peach-tree fruited deep, Fair as the garden of the Lord, To the .-yes of tiie famished rebel horde . On that pleasant morn of tbe early fall, When Lee marched over the mountain-wall Over the mountains winding down. Horse and foot, into Frederick town. Forty flag with their silver stars. Forty nags with their crimson bars, Flapped in the morning wind : the sun Of noon looked down and saw not one. Up roae old Barl-ara.Freitchie then, Bowed with fcer fourscore years and ten ; Bravest of all in Frederick town, Sbe Uwi up the dag tbe men hauled down ; In her attic window tbe stuff she set, To show that one heart is loyal yet, Up the street coe the rebel tread. Stonewall Jackson riding ahead. I'iidr bis slouched hat left and right, lie glanced : tae eld Sag met his sight.

Halt: "FireT" " 1 he dust-brown ranks stood fast, out blazed the ride -blast. It shivered the window, pane and sash ; It rent the banner with seam and gash. yuick, as it fell from tbe broken staff. Dune Barbara snatched the silken scarf; She leaned far out on the window-sill. And shook it forth with a royal will. " Shoot, if you must, this grav old head. But spate your country's dag ," she said . A shade of sadness, a blush of shame, Over the face of the leader came ; TUe nobler nature within him stirred To life at that w, man's deed and word : " Who touches a hair on yon gray head Hi Tike a dog ! March on" he said. A 1 day Ions through Frederick street Sounded the tread of marching feet : AU day 1 eg that fre nag tossed Over ih acais of the rebel host. Ever its torn fo'.U nwe and fell On the loyal winds tiiat loved it well ; A: thr. Ub. the hill gaps sunset light Shoe over it with a warm good-night. Barbara Fri-tchie's work is e'er, And the rebel rides ou his raids no more H : r to her 1 and let a tear Fall, lor her sake, on Stonewall's bier. Ovw Ba Horn Frietrhfe's grave Flag cf Freedom and Union wave ! Peace ar;d order and Ix-iuty draw Ronsd thy symbol of light and law ; And ever the stars above look down On thv stars below at Frederick town '. Rich Scene on a Railroad Train. An affair worthy of notice occurred a j few days since on the train between Bal- j timore and this city. A number of sol- j dier3 were on board the train. Two of them wore blouses of a different color ! from those worn bv the re&L An old j copperhead on the train noticed this, and supposed them to be " Southern brethren." He approached them and entered into a conversation something like the following: Copperhead " ou gentlemen do not belong to this party of soldiers? ' Soldiers ' No sir." Copperhead " Do you belong to the Southern Confederacy?" Soldiers " Yes sir." Copperhead " Have you any money?'' Soldiers " No sir." Copperhead " Have you no Confed- j erate money?'' Soldiers " No sir; we lost every thing j Eve dollar bill). : It is a pity that gentlemen engaged in a good cause should be robbed of every thing." After this generous act on the part of the old man, he asked: ''What State in the Southern Confederacy do you belong to?" Soldiers" From the State of Maine!" Copperhead simmered down, and left the train before it had fairly stopped at Hanover Junction. Harrisbxtrg Telegraph. Ax Affectionate Sox. The Cleveland Herald heard the other day of a man applying for exemption from the draft because he had an old mother who needed his cherishing care. To show how much feeling this affectionate son has x'or his old mother, his neighbors say he has had her coffin in the house for over two years. He came to town with a load of wood one day, and, being unable to sell it, he contrived to trade it off with an undertaker for a coffin his mother being old, might die suddenly, and then, as Toodles says, " how handy it would be to have it in the house." Being of a frugal as well as ingenious turn of mind, he put the coffin in the cellar to keep turnips in, until such time as the old lady might "drop off." Ax Acceptation xo Compliment. The Paris feuilletonists are laughing over a joke perpetrated by Rossini. lie was recently invited to dinner by a lady, who. evidently imagining so great and poetical a composer, must be indifferent to the pleasures of the table, provided an ordinary and somewhat insufficient repast ( n receiving the adiex of her farfamed guest, she insinuatingly demanded when she might hope to have him dining at her house again. ;'Now, at once," was the quick reply, that briefly embodied a volume of criticism on the meagre entertainment LIQUORS. 2ST JE2 jF1 X X?. 3N.

Tlie heavy rain of Wednesday night, if genera! and steady all along the whole line of the river as at this point, the decline in the river may be temporarily checked. The river, however, is still falling, with no favorable hope of a chasm before the first snow melts. The Oelaware arrived from Louisville about daylight yesterday morning, and returm d about 10 o'clock. The K. K. Dnnkerson came in from Bowling Green, and aftr-r discharging her freight, dropped down below tbe lower wharf, where she will lie up until a rise takes place. The Colonna will leave for Cairo at noon to-day. ('apt. Tom. Balus is in command, and is an experienced and accommodating officer, and the Colonna gets over the shoals at Cairo without trouble. She arrived last night with a I big trip. The New Albany Ledger of yester day says: A passenger, who got on the steam boat Gladiator, which arrived at Cairo Monday, says that he belonged to one of six boats that had been burned by the Confederates. According to his accounts. four passenger and two gunboats were lying at Prairie Landing, on the South side of White river, and twenty-five miles above ths month; the soldiers on board had gone back some distance to attend to some matters committed to their care, when a party of Confederate soldiers came upon them, seized the boats and burned them. Beside the two gunboats, it is stated there were the Belle Creole, Sallie List, Altamont, and Clara Bell, all boats well known here The statement goes on to sav that tbe steamboat crews were allowed fifteen minutes to get out their baggage and leave, out me gunooatmen were captured. We shall see how far late arri vals shall confirm the statement. There is not a word of truth in the statement, as we have good reason to believe. We are informed that before evacua ting Little Rock Gen. Price burned the following boats : Arkansas, Talequah, Chester. Asblev. Little Rock, Julia Roane, St. Francis, and Milton Brown. The latter boat was fQ.rn)erb...tUe;B..0CaVo,u Re'CCAie Simmons, which has been altered iiro a gunboat called the Pontchartrain, was also burned: her guns were at Arkansas Post, and were captured when the place was stormed and aken several months ago.
