Ilidtlen away tlicre in a deep glen, not many miles from Vulk-y Forge, a quaint old i'ann liouse rose darkly over a wide waste of *now. It was a cold, unrk winter, and the snow began to fall, while from the broad fire plaoe of the old farm house the cheer ful blazo of massive l.igs flashed around a wide and spacious room. Two pem-i«s sat by the fire—a father and child The father, who hits yonder with a soldier's belt thrown over his far UKT'S dreBB isa man of somo fifty years, bil eyes blood-shot, his face wrinkhu and hulloucd by care, and by dissipation more than caie. And the daughter, who si's iu the fuli light of the blasts opposite her father—a lender formed girl of some seventeen years, is clad iu a coarse linsey skirt and rchief, which roade up thu cnsiuin.. of a fanner's daughter iu the days of the Revolution, She was not beautiful— ah uo! Care—perhaps that disease consump- tion, which makes the heart grow cold to name—1);IR been busy with that young face, sharpened its outlines, and stamped it with a deathly paleness There is no bloom on that young wo- man. The brown hair is laid plainly aside from the pale brow. Then tell me ivhat it is you see when you gaze in her 'ace You look at that young girl, and see nothing but. the gleam of huge eyes, that burn into your soul. Yes, those eyes are unnaturally large, aud dark and bright; perhaps consump- tion is feeding them. And now then, as the father sits there so sad. and silent aud pale tell me, I pray, he story of their lives. That man, Jacob Manheim, was a peaceful, happy man before the Rcvolu- ion Since the war has begun, he hasj become drunken and idle; driven his wife, broken-hearted, to the grave ; and worse than all. joined a gang of tory refugees, who scour the land at dead of light, burning aud murdering as they 5°- To-night, at the hour of two, this tory band will he in wait at a neighboring pass, toattack and murder Washington, whose starving soldiers are yonder in heir haunts, Valley Forge Washington, in his lonely journeyit.gs .8 wont to pass this farm-house; the cut throats are iu the next chamber, drink- ing and feasting us they wuic for two o'clock at night. And the daughter, Mary— for her mime was Mary—they loved that name in the gocd uid times—what wag the story '•!' her life ? She h;.d been reared by the mother, now dead, and taught to revere this man | Washington, who will to night be attack i ed a' d murdered to revere himnext to | God. Nay, more, that mother on her death-bed, joined her daughter's hand to a partisan leader, Harry vv llliams, who i mv shares the crust aud cold at Valley Forge. Well might the maiden's eye flash with unnatural brightness—well may her p le face gather a single Imrning flush in the centre of each cheek. For yesterday afternoon, she went four miles, over roads of ice and snow, to tell Capt. Williams of the plot of the refugees. She did not reach Valley Forge until Washington had left on one of his journeys; so this night at twelve o'clock, the partisan company occupied the roeks above the neighboring pass to trap the followers of George \\ ashing ton. Yes, that pale and slender girl, remem- bering the words of her dying mother, had broken through her obedience to her father, after a long andbitter struggle in a faithful daughter's heart ! Sue hud betrayed his plot to the enemies, stipula- ting first for the life and safety of her father. Aud now, as the father andchild aro sitting there, the shouts ot the tory refu- gees echo from the next chamber as the kt!!ii of theold clock is on the hour of eleven. Hark! there is a sound of horse's hoofs wtthin the itnn jwd, there is a pause ; the door open: and a tail fig- ure, wrapped in a thick elo: k, white with snow, enters, advances to the tire, and in brief words solicits some refreshments aud an hour's jv; Why docs the tory .Manheim start jigjm.et »t the sight of the stranger's blue and gold uniform ? Then mumbling to his daughter about getting some food for the traveler, ho rushes wildly into the next room where his brother tories were feasting. Tell me. why does that young girl stand .ling before the tall stranger, veiling her eyes irwi hat calm face, with its blue e)cs and kiudlj smile'.'' Ah ! if we may believe the legends of that time, few men, lew warriors, who dated the terrors of battle, with a smile, eould stand unabashed before the solemn presence of Washington. For it was Washington, exhausted with along jour- ney, his limbs stifl'ened and his face be- numbed with cold, who returning to the camp sooner than his usual hour, was forced by the storm to aku refuge iu the fanner's house, and chum a little food and an hour's repose at his hands. In a few minutes, behold this stranger, With his clock thrown off, sitting at that old oaken tab's eating the food spread out by the girl, who stands trembling by his side. And look ! her hand is extended as if to warn him of his danger, but she makes no sound. Why all this silent agony for the man who sits so calmly there? One moment ago, as the girl in pre- paring the hasty supper, opened y ler closet adjoining the next room, she heard the low whispers of her father and the tories. She heard the dice box rattle, as they were easting lots who should Stab Washingto in his sleep! And now the words, " Beware ! on this night you dieI" trembling half form- ed upon her lips, when her father conies hastily from the room and hushes her with a look. '• Show the gentleman to his room, Mary," (how calmly polite a murderer cai. be !) ' that chamber at the head of the staiis on the left, you niiud.' 1 Mary takes the light, trembling Mid pale. She leads the soldier up the old, oaken stairs They stand at the loading, in this wing of the farm house, Composed of two rooms, divided by thick walls from the main body of the mansion. On one side, the right, is the door of Mary's chnmber; on the other, the left, was the chamber of thesoldier, tq him tho cham- ber of death. For a moment Mary stands there, trembling and confused. Washington gazes upon that pale girl with a look of surprise. Loot ! she is about to warn him of his danger when see there! ber father's rough face appears above the head of the stairs. " Mary, show' the gentleman into that room on the left And, look ye, girl, its getting late, and you had better go into your room and go to sleep.' 1 While the tory watches from tho head of the stairs Washington outers the chamber on the left; Mury the o*ie on the right. An hour passes. Still the storm beats on the roof; still the snow drifts in the hills. J3efore the fire, iu the dim old hall, of the farm house, are seven drunk- en men. with that tall fciry, Jacob -Man heim, sitting in their widt;t, the murder- er's knife in his haudj for the lot has fallen on Lin.. lie is to go up and sub the sleeping man. Even the half drunken murderer turns pale at the thought; how the knife trem- bles in his guilty hand—trembles »/ the pistol barrel; the jeers of his com- rades arouse him to the work ; the light is in one hand, the knife iu the other; he goes up stairs; he listens, first at the Soot of his daughter's roo;n on the right, and then at the door of the soldier's ou li ft. All is stiil Then he places the Light on the floor; he enters the eh:im ber on the left; he is gOne a moment. Silence ! there is a faint groan. He comes forth again, rushes down i-tuirs, and stands before the lire with the bloody knife in his hand. '' Look 1" he shrieks, as he scatters the red drops over his comrades, and over the hearth into tho fire. " Look! it is the traiiOi, Washington ?" His -omrados gather around him with yells of joy; already in fancy, they count tho gold which will be theirs for this deed ; when lo ! the stair door opens, and there, without a wound, stands George Washington, asking calmly for his horse! "What!" shrieked the tory Manheim, " can neither steel nor bullets harm you ? Are you a living man ? Is there no wound in your uniform ?" Tiie apparition drives him mad. He starts forward ; be places his hand tremblingly upon the arms and breast of Washington. He then looks at the bloody knife, clasped iu his right hand, and stands there quivering in the death spasm. While Washington looks on in silent wonder, the door is thrown open ; the bold troopers from VaKey Forge throng the room with the gallant and bronzed visage of Capt V> illiams id their midst At this moment the old clock iu the room struck twelve. Then a horrid thought crashed through the brain of the tory, Manheim. £ie seizes the light, rushes to the room o! his daughter, on the right. Some one had just risen from the bed- the cham- ber was vacant—then towards the cham- ber on the left, with steps of leaden heaviness ! Lo ! now the kuite quivciv iu his hand. He pauses at the door—he listens—lug blood curdles in his reins.— Gathering courage, he pushes open the door—goes towards the bed, through whose curtains he had struck so blindly a moment ago. Again he pauses—not a sound; stillno-ss more terrible than the grave Heflingsaside the curtains There, in the full light of the lamp, her form but half covered, buthed in her own blood—there lay his daughter Mary. And do not look upon the face of her father, as he starts silcntiy lack, ttot in stone ; but in the pause of horror, listen to the mystery of the deed. After the father had gone down stairs an hour ago, Mary silently stole from the chamber on the right, tier soul shaken from a thousand fears She opened the door on the left, and beheld Washington sitting at the table. She thought her existence was in the act, she asked him, in a tone ol calm politeness; to enter the room on the right. Mary entered the chamber ou the left. Can you imagine the agony of that girl's soul, as. lying ou the bed intended as the death couch of WashingUm, she silently awaited the knife although that knife might be clenched in a "fathers haiid. And now that father, frozen to stone, stood thefe, holding the light in one hand the other stiil clenching the red knife. There lay his child, the blood stream- ing from that wound in her arm, her eyes covered with a. glassy lilm. "Mary !" shrieked the guilty father— for robber and tory as he was, he called to her but that was all he could say. Suddenly she seemed to wake from that stupor. She sat up in bed, with glassy eyes. The strong hand of death was on her. As she sat there, erect and glausy, the room was thronged with solders — Her lover rushed forward, and called her by name. Noanswer. Call'd again —spc ke to her in that familiar voice of olden time; still no answer. She know himnot. Yes, it was true—the strong baud of death was upon her, " He has escaped ?" she said, with a husky voice. " Y e » P shrieked the father. "L\e, Mary, ossly live, and lo -morrow I will join the camp at Valley Forge." There that girl • thehero woman—dy- | ing as sho was, not so much from the wound in her arm as from tho agony which has brokeu her last chord of life, spread forth her arms as if she beheld a. form floating above the bed beckoning her away 11 Mother!'' she whispered, while there grouped the goldiers—there, with speech- less ago.) y ou his brow, stood the lover — there hiding his face with one hand, while the other grasped the light crouch- ed the father—the light flashing over her dark bed, with the form in its center " Mother, thank God! For with my life I have saved him—" Look ! even as staring on that bloody couch there, she speaks that half finned ! word, her arms stiffen, her eyes wide open, «t iu death, glare iu her lather's face. She is dead. From the room her spirit has gone That half formed word, st : 'l quivering on the lips of tho heroic woman—that word uttered in a husky whisper, choked by the death rattle, was— WASHINGTON lr mthe K»w Y".j.

Th town or village is Mount Pleasant The thirty miles ot ooust from Bull's Bay South to Charleston barber bears the peculiar character of tho whole southern shoreline, being a seri islands, atul inlets to creeks ruoning between the islands and the mainland. These creeks, c nmriunicate with ( lest oh harbor and Sullivan's Island and the mainland, but are suitable for navi- gation only by light draiiijh! vessels. If, however, the expedition proceeded to Port Rival entrance, our fleet finds itself in the finest harbor of South Carolina, and 01 e of tho noblest inland waters of the whole S -itth The har- lior of Port Royal or Be'iufort is about 75 miles southwest of Charleston, and is about equi di-tant between that city and Savannah.

The mouths of the rivers and the inlets of she ocean inclose a number of islands of consid- erable eiise, among which may be j mentioned Hilton Head, St. Helena and Port Royal.

" ONLY MOTHER;" Or, tiie First Lessons in Drilling. The July sun wns almost overhead iu the hcivcns, drinking up the water from the little brooks, and fairly scorching tl-e shorl grasses in the pastures. The cattle left feuding in the meadow and stood knee deep in the pond, where the thick shadows of the wood fell over it. It was far too warm to work, or even to play, so the boys who had been standing all the morning with their fishing lines dang- ling over the railing of the bridge, put up their books and throw themselves down in the cool shade of the old elms on the bank. They lnndo a very pretty picture as they biy there, with their shirt collars unbuttoned, and their moist hair pushed baou from their flushed faces,— Uueof them, Willie Downer, had a pic torial newspaper in his pocket, with large engravings of the companies ol soldiers at VV ashington, their camp grounds, il igs, and cannon, and the uniforms they wore, He spread the paper on the grass, and began explaining the pictures to his com- jiaiiion, Archie Morris, " If I was only old enough," S-iid Wil- lie eanio tly, " I should enlist for a sol- dier. It would be so grand to go and for the country, and defend our ltb- t ill. s Don't you witih you were a man, Archie?" " Yes," said Archie, " I should like to be a nriij, but mother says *ve need not wait till that time to be bravo ; we can show our courage now." " I know," said Willie ; " cousin Ly- man joined tho company, and he is only three years older than I, but then he ia as tall as father, every bit." "That wasn't what mother meant," said Archie; "she said a good soldier must be ready to undertake any duty, and it took t great deal more oour do little disagreeable things than to march up iu the face of an enemy in bat- tle. Then the first duty of every soldier was to learn to ebey orders, and that is just what we boys are doing." \\ illie looked a good deal dissatisfied, and did not seem tolike this view of the mutter; but just at this moment some- came to the door of one of tho white cottag»« just below the bridge, and called. '• Willie! Willie!' He did not stir, but on examining the paper. "douiebody called you, Willie," said Archie, looking toward the house!). ''It's only mother," replied JVillie; " she wants me to go of somo errand, and 1 alii not goiug out isi this hot sun."

"Justin tune Archie," said his mo- ther, placing the b;;by in his arms. '^1 see my volunteer means to be on hand whenever his orders come " Now, Archie really disliked tending baby veiy much, especially on such a very warm day, who,; it took nil his patience. and tngeuuity toamuse his little brother, m ide u usually fretful by the heat. But one glance into the heated kitchen, where hi:; mother was busy over the glowing stove, made him think himself very for- equate to be able to reinaiu .11 the si room, with closed bliiiiis and open win- dows. But baby wi.s not at all pleased with the darkened room. He would not sit on the fiobr androll Archie's ball ; he would not laugh at all atArchic's an- stic and grimmaces; he wanted to be car rieil, and carried he must be. •'Come on then," said Arohie, tossing him to his shoulders. " Now I'm on a fuFOed luiireh froia Washington to Texas, and this is myknapsack and blanket.— Heavy load, h.it weather—mercury up to £00 degrees in the shade — whole aimy of secessiouers running away from us bound to get there before morning—bund strike up 'Yankee DooJle"—and he 30m menced rapidly pacing the room, whis tling Yankee Doodle, to baby's great sit.is action. Just as ho was beginning to find it pretty hard work, the door opened, and his sister Sarah came iu from school.— •' Turn out and relieve guard," said Ar- chie, dropping the baby into her lap, and throwing himself full length ou the oar pet " You're full of your war nonsense," said Sarah, laughing.

The Art of Shopping, Wo are all sa'isiied that gentlemen have no genius for shopping. They are not ''{juul to it. Nature has left their fa- cilities imperfeot in that particular.— They can write books and make speeches, and all that sort of thing, but they are not up toshopping. It takes the ladies for that, Men go to the store select what ' they want, and buy it. But that is not shopping; that requires r;o genius. Men pretend they do not like to go shopping with tho ladies. I wonder "who ever ask- ed them? What lady would have such an inoumbrarrCe on such occasions? Men are well enough iu their places. Young gentlemen are convenient to take us to concerts, andgee us home from church, and brings us bouquets and music ; and litisbas.ds are useful to pay the bills, &c, but for a shopping excursion they aro quite out of place. Do you understand mo to insinuate that I have distinguished ability that way? Not at all; t only speak of my sex. In fact, I acknowledge myself a poor hand at it. But my friend, Sallie 11 is a model shopper, I em taking lessons of her, and hope to be perfect by the time I am married.— A few days since she invited me to go with her. "I wish to look at the new stylo of silks," said she. " Why, do you want to get a new L asked. " Really," said Sallie, " if it was not impolite, 1should say that you area ver- dant I don't want a dross, but that's lu) reason why I should not see the ma- terial." So Sallie and I sallied out. Tho first storo wo entered she asked whether tho merchant had received his .spring goods. Lie. said he had, and inquired what sho would like to see? "»how me your new style dress goods," said she "such us barege rubes, and lawn robes, and handsome striped plaid Bilks; brocades and changeable sii'js are 1. it : much worn this spring, but I'll iuok at your solid colors." 1 he merchant soon had his counter spread with goods. She examined and tossed them about, making various creas- es iu them to s'.'o whether they would come out again by rubbing "What style is worn?" said Sallie to the clerk. "Well, wo sell probably more plaid stripes than any other. ' "tiave you any with chene stripes?" inquired Sallio •'Oh, yes! somo very fine," aud a num- ber of pieces were produced. '•Well, I can't say, after all, that I like the chene stripes; the green is very pret- ty." So Sullio held it in various lights, rub biug it andcreasing it "Well, it don't cre.iso much," said she, "I wonder whether it will cut?" "No, it is boiled silk; and we find that the plaid* aud stripes wear very well." "lour silks are very pretty, and you may cu: oil'a sample if you please/' con- tinued Sallia This the merchant was forced to do, though with rather a bad grac \ B is I of his goods wero VJ patterns aud he feared spoiling the piece. "Will you bd kind enough to givo me samples of the solid colors?" They were all furnished. "This plaid, you say, is $1.37 ? Is that the lowest?" "Yes, we can't take less." "How many yards in tho pattern?" "Fourteen." "I'd rather have eighteen; perhaps I might conclude to have flounces Well, &e the simple :u;J show it to my mother, ana then make np my mind.— Have you any Coated' eottou !—give rae a spool, No. o3." This was handed bar; she paid five oentH and v:e left. I looked at my '.vatch. We Lad been there exactly an hour! ('What a cheat! I can buy the spools for four cents," said Sallie, when we were fully out; "and, besides, we forgot their shawls." So wo went to another store. "Have you any Stella shawls?" "Yes, some beautiful o:ies, just opened. W r ould you like to seo the broche borders or printed?" "15..th." "Any particular colors" "No, sir; I'll look at them all," said Sallie, Different colors aud patterns were ac- cordingly produced. "What is tho price of green centre broche border?" "Wo cm ail'oi'd you that for $9; same style siiid for Si5 two months ago." Somo printed borders were put up for $4.50. "No, I prefer broche; but can't you take less?" I saw a twinkle in the merchant's eyo, which made mo think he knew she was only shopping. "Now," said he, "if you won't mention it, V\l let you have it for $6." Sallie looked surprised. She knew the a tide wss selling at SO. "Six dollars, ia that, your lowest?" "Well, te oblige you I will say Si!" said the merchant. A pau.,e ensued "Then you think $4 is the lowesi?" <f Ahi in! have a large lot and want to disposo of ihein I'll say $2.50!'' •'Ai e you sure it is a first rate piece of goods?' 1 "I'll warrant it all silk and woolj" said the mei chant. My friend was caught. Turning to me she whispered: "I do wish I had brought some mon- ey!" and then addressing tho merchant, said, ' I will call again." 1 never Was so glad to get out of a store before; f .r tiie clerks had gathered aroiAd us, seeming to understand the joke. But S:i!lio wont home, got the money, and incited upon my returning with her to the store for the shawl. The trader said hewas sirry, very, but thy shawl had just been sold! And so was Sallio, too, I thought We went shop- ping no more that afternoon. One Kind Aet. When Mary and 1 we?b married Wo were young and foolish, for wo had no thin a" to bo matriod -vith ; but Mary was del.cute, and I thought I could take caioof her best I knew I had a strong arm and a brave heart to do pend upon. AVe reiiiod a chamber and went to housekc pirii^. Wo got to getlier a little furniluro —a table, bed- stead, dishes—but 0:1 r money failed UH before we bought the chairs. 1 told Mary sho must turn up a tub, for 1 could not run in debt. No, no. It wan not lorjg before our rich neighbor, Mrs. M—, found us out, an.l kindly enough supplied us; hulf a dozen chars w.ar« added to oar stock. Thsv , wore old ones, to be suro, but answered j 1st as woll for us. . I shall nev'tsr for- got tdo new face those, chairs put on ; oui' snug quarters, they nevor looked 1 just right before, Tho tables are j turned with Mrs. M— and mo now, she i has turned a poor widow; but HIIO i shall 1,ever want while I have anything, nover. I don't forgot those old chairs. Ah! now the secret wan out: It was tho interest of the old chairs which maintained the poor widow. She was living on the interest and tho compound interest of a little friendly aotof years befori, and it sufficed for herself and daughter. How beautiful it is toseo bow God blesses l.ho operation of his great and moral law, " Love thy neighbor; " a;;d we should oftpn sou it, could wo look into the hidden part of life, and find that it is not self interest nor l'amo that binds heart to heart! The simple po.ver of a friendly act can do far more than they. It ia these, tho jii.'iidiy acts, the neighborly kindness, the Christian sympathy of one towards another, which robs wealth of its A compliment is usually ac- companied witii a bow, as if to beg pardon for paying it, ™ Engaged—it is a common word, quickly written, often and easily spoken ; but the length and breadth, the L and depth; of its import is measured on ty by tho Months audyears of a human life; it is a word whioh never, like the susoessive turns of akaleidoscope, giyes only brilliant colors—bn great joys have corresponding sorrows. £3iJ" One should not dispute with a man v.ho either through stupidity or tlii'.melessucss denied plaiu aud visible truths. , r wealth of its power to our so, extracts bitterness from sorrow, and opens wells of gladness in desolated home*. We do not always see the golden links shining; in the chain of human events; but they !ire there, and happy is he who fee's their gentle but irresistible influence ! Gen. Meridian's War Horse. A write.'in Porter's Spirit thus da scribes tho horse which sorre gentle- men in Cincinnati bought ip St. Louis and presented to Gen. iLClellan, when he took charge of the army iu Western Virginia: " Dan Webster, or Handsome Dan," the familiar sobriquet by which ho was knot n to ibo men, women and children throughout the cry, is a gilding of a beautifully dappled mahogany bay color, with three white feet u:id a star, very heavy flowing black irnino and tail, the latter a regular " spout." " Ho is sixteen hands hisih, and woitjlis in ordinary flesh 1.260 pounds. He was fiired by General Jackson, dam of Sir Archy and Messenger Wood He has a fine, bony aud intelligent head delicately tapeivd ear, and a proud, beautilully arched neck, capital shoul- ders, very long and muscular arms, whoso symmetry could not bo improved were they carved to order ; his chest is broad and deep, bis legs fine, fiat and bony, with his hocks and knees well down to his heels, and his fetlocks almost toj the ground, with a round, well ribbed barrel of tremendous length, and aline and hips remarkable for strength and beauty ; indeed his fine points and evenly balanced pro- portions make him in thofullest sense of the term, amodel horse, not only for symmetry, but for speed and acute- ness." •' As n field horse, I never saw his superior, being »ry " top.v " when in action, with a proud and nervous step his head as high as his rider's when mounted, and his throat latch and the tips of his forefeet almost on a perpen- dicular lir.e when in repose, Ila pos- sesses nanny characteristics common to no other one of his species I have ever known. For instance, he will not stamp bis foot nor shako ofl a tiy if there were a thousand on him, seeming to enter- tain a contempt f:>r all lessor anim.ls; and his confidence in and affection for the human species is such that he will not, uncUjr any circumstances, suffer hi« attention to bo drawn trorn his muster by any minor object.

From the N. Y. Evening Post, Sntur<?aj. Gen. George B, McClellan. The resignation of Gen. Scott TIM placed tho responsibility of the Groiou armies upon the shoulders of a retflarkn- b!e man. This is trua not only in the common but tho original acceptation 1 ' of the word. BlcClellan ha* always' bceu, a marked man. And novr e!>p«*iaVly, when ." All tongue gpe&k 01 Htpig Andttie Ulearcd sights are ftpectach '1to .see h i m / ' a brief review of his past life and sen f- eea is as much a duty as a pleasure to every citizen who' helps him carry tho weight of our threatened commonwealth. G-eorgo B, McOlellan' was horn iu Philadelphia on the 3d of December, 1826, his father being an eminonO physi- cian of that city. At the age of liS, or in 1812, he entered the West Point Academy, and in 18-16, at the age of twenty, was graduated second in his olag* On the first of July of that year lie was brevetted seoond lieutenant of enginoera) By an act of Congress passed during tlio' May previous, a company cf. sappers-, minors and poutoniers was added' to tho engineer corps and in this company 2ktc* Clellan was commissioned. Brevet Brigadier General Tottbnj Chief j!ji;gineor of the army eommauded by Gen. Scott befo-'O Vera Cruz, speaks' of MeOlellan's genius andenergy in th'st- company in the highest terms. His et- ertions in drilling the recruits who cama into his company to be prepared for tho arduous labors of tho Mexican war Wcra indefatigable. With the aid of but two' other officers he succeeded so perfectly in drilling the seventy-one raw men who had come into his hands only two months- before, that on tho 24th of September they sailed from West Point, reported by Genera] Toticn as "in a- state.of admira* ble discipline/' During the war this company wa? rft- duced to forty five effective men and two officers—one of whom was McClellan.— He is repeatedly mentioned in connection with the corps as exhibiting cousumnnte patience and ability. His company cer^r ouce lost its discipline, and perforu>«»J some of the most toilsome duties of tlio war under very trying circumstances?— Gen. Tottea makes especial mention'O? tho labors performed by McClellan be- fore Vera Cruz He speaks of him 1 as " animating his corps by his own devo- tion and z al," of '' the unsurpassed in- telligence. a;.d zeal with which he took his share in the direction of the siege." At Coatreras McCleilan was selected, with another engineer to rcconnoitre'tlia strong breastworks of the enemy. They had their horses shot under them, and barely escaped capture by the Mexican pickets. When theaction commenced McClellan was with Magruder's battery'. While it was still doing good series; its- commander, Callender, was wouuded:— McClellan immediately took command of it, and managed it until it was entirely disabled, with such success as to sustain its previous reputation. Gen. Twiggs immediately presented hi3 name for pro- motion to Gen. Scott, and after showing consummate bravery inthe action of Churuboseo, which took place next day, he was brevetted first lieutenant: In the uext battle, Molino del Hoy—hia^be- havior was so gallant that ho was eleva- ted to a captaincy. He declined to rc- ceivo it, aud continued lieutenant on ! the day of Chapultepcc, when Gen. Scott mentions him as " winning the admiration of all about him." Ho was the first to enter the Almeda with a company Which ho commanded, and during the day of the assault repulsed a body of Mexicans, greatly outnumbering his own corps, with a loss of twenty to the enemy. He continued in aciive service'from the commencement of his company's 1 or- ganization until Gen. Scott occupied tho city of Mexico. He returned from 1 the war with therank of o.tptain of tha company, now greatly augmented; of sappers, miners and pontoniers. Be- tween 1818 and 1S51 he translated 8 from, the French a manual ol bayonet exiriiiao, > which has become the text book of' the army. In 1851 ho superintended tho 1 ' con- struction of Fort Delaware. In 185-2 he explored tho lied River, under Cajp,t. Marcy, and surveyed the harbors aird rivers of Texas as the senior engineer on the sUff of Ge:. Persifer F. Smith; In 1853 McClellan was employed'oa » survey to ascertain the best rout*fora railroad between the Mississippi aud. tha Paciflv—also in the exploration cf the 47th and 49th parallels of north latitude. His report gained the commendation <*f Jeff, Davis, then Secretary of War. For three years more McClellan WM variously employed. After executing a secret service commission in the West In- dies, andreciving a commission in the U. S. Cavalry, ho was appointedone of a military commission of three officers to. proceed to the Crimea and Northern Rus- sia, for observation of the conflict then existing, and his report on " Tho' Opera- tions of the War," is thought by army officers a most valuable work. In 1857 Ue resigned his positidn'in the army, the peaceful condition of the coun- try scorning to demand his services no longer, to take a place in the manage- ment of the Illinois Central Railroad as its Vice-President and Chief Engineer. After years of work upon that road he became general Superintendent of th» Ohio and Mississippi line. He waff-act- ing on that po3t whou the rebollion broke out. Gov. Curtin, of Pennsylvania,- ap- plied to him to undertake the drganiji- tion of the volunteer forces of that State; but he hud previously accept ;d a s milar oft'r from Ohio. In the assjm- blin,'of the forces of the litter State, and n pi c ng them on an efficient war footing, h< exhibited so much of that de- termination and originality which had characterized his former sarvieeg in M»V ioo, tint he was appointed Bliijor-Gens- ral in the U. 8. Army, with command of a department, which included Ohio and Western Virginia. Since that time his reco d is not history—it is the preterit. Gen. McCleliau married within the last two of three years, tho daughter of Capt Marcy, under whom he made his Rod River Exploration.

VALLEY_FOIIGE.A LEGEHD OF THE REVOLUTION.

Ilidtlen away tlicre in a deep glen, notmany miles from Vulk-y Forge, a quaintold i'ann liouse rose darkly over a widewaste of *now.

It was a cold, unrk winter, and thesnow began to fall, while from the broadfire plaoe of the old farm house the cheerful blazo of massive l.igs flashed arounda wide and spacious room.

Two pem-i«s sat by the fire—a fatherand child The father, who hits yonderwith a soldier's belt thrown over his farUKT'S dreBB is a man of somo fifty years,bil eyes blood-shot, his face wrinkhu andhulloucd by care, and by dissipationmore than caie.

And the daughter, who si's iu the fulilight of the blasts opposite her father—alender formed girl of some seventeen

years, is clad iu a coarse linsey skirt andrchief, which roade up thu cnsiuin.. of

a fanner's daughter iu the days of theRevolution,

She was not beautiful— ah uo !Care—perhaps that disease consump-

tion, which makes the heart grow cold toname—1);IR been busy with that youngface, sharpened its outlines, and stampedit with a deathly paleness

There is no bloom on that young wo-man. The brown hair is laid plainlyaside from the pale brow. Then tell meivhat it is you see when you gaze in her'ace

You look at that young girl, and seenothing but. the gleam of huge eyes, thatburn into your soul.

Yes, those eyes are unnaturally large,aud dark and bright; perhaps consump-tion is feeding them.

And now then, as the father sits thereso sad. and silent aud pale tell me, I pray,he story of their lives.

That man, Jacob Manheim, was apeaceful, happy man before the Rcvolu-ion Since the war has begun, he hasj

become drunken and idle; driven hiswife, broken-hearted, to the grave ; andworse than all. joined a gang of toryrefugees, who scour the land at dead oflight, burning aud murdering as they5°-

To-night, at the hour of two, this toryband will he in wait at a neighboringpass, to attack and murder Washington,whose starving soldiers are yonder inheir haunts, Valley Forge

Washington, in his lonely journeyit.gs.8 wont to pass this farm-house; the cutthroats are iu the next chamber, drink-ing and feasting us they wuic for twoo'clock at night.

And the daughter, Mary— for hermime was Mary—they loved that namein the gocd uid times—what wag thestory '•!' her life ?

She h;.d been reared by the mother,now dead, and taught to revere this man |Washington, who will to night be attack ied a' d murdered — to revere him next to |God. Nay, more, that mother on herdeath-bed, joined her daughter's hand toa partisan leader, Harry vv llliams, whoi mv shares the crust aud cold at ValleyForge.

Well might the maiden's eye flash withunnatural brightness—well may her p leface gather a single Imrning flush in thecentre of each cheek.

For yesterday afternoon, she wentfour miles, over roads of ice and snow, totell Capt. Williams of the plot of therefugees. She did not reach ValleyForge until Washington had left on oneof his journeys; so this night at twelveo'clock, the partisan company occupiedthe roeks above the neighboring pass totrap the followers of George \\ ashington.

Yes, that pale and slender girl, remem-bering the words of her dying mother,had broken through her obedience to herfather, after a long and bitter struggle ina faithful daughter's heart ! Sue hudbetrayed his plot to the enemies, stipula-ting first for the life and safety of herfather.

Aud now, as the father and child arositting there, the shouts ot the tory refu-gees echo from the next chamber as thekt!!ii of the old clock is on the hour ofeleven. Hark! there is a sound ofhorse's hoofs wtthin the itnn jwd , thereis a pause ; the door open: and a tail fig-ure, wrapped in a thick elo: k, white withsnow, enters, advances to the tire, and inbrief words solicits some refreshmentsaud an hour's jv;

Why docs the tory .Manheim startjigjm.et »t the sight of the stranger's blueand gold uniform ?

Then mumbling to his daughter aboutgetting some food for the traveler, horushes wildly into the next room wherehis brother tories were feasting. Tellme. why does that young girl stand

.ling before the tall stranger, veilingher eyes irw i hat calm face, with itsblue e)cs and kiudlj smile'.''

Ah ! if we may believe the legends ofthat time, few men, lew warriors, whodated the terrors of battle, with a smile,eould stand unabashed before the solemnpresence of Washington. For it wasWashington, exhausted with a long jour-ney, his limbs stifl'ened and his face be-

numbed with cold, who returning to thecamp sooner than his usual hour, wasforced by the storm to aku refuge iu thefanner's house, and chum a little foodand an hour's repose at his hands. In afew minutes, behold this stranger, Withhis clock thrown off, sitting at that oldoaken tab's eating the food spread out bythe girl, who stands trembling by hisside.

And look ! her hand is extended as ifto warn him of his danger, but she makesno sound. Why all this silent agony forthe man who sits so calmly there?

One moment ago, as the girl in pre-paring the hasty supper, opened y lercloset adjoining the next room, she heardthe low whispers of her father and thetories. She heard the dice box rattle, asthey were easting lots who should StabWashingto in his sleep!

And now the words, " Beware ! onthis night you die I" trembling half form-ed upon her lips, when her father conieshastily from the room and hushes herwith a look.

'• Show the gentleman to his room,Mary," (how calmly polite a murderercai. be !) ' that chamber at the head ofthe staiis on the left, you niiud.'1

Mary takes the light, trembling Midpale. She leads the soldier up the old,oaken stairs They stand at the loading,in this wing of the farm house, Composedof two rooms, divided by thick walls fromthe main body of the mansion. On oneside, the right, is the door of Mary'schnmber; on the other, the left, was thechamber of the soldier, tq him tho cham-ber of death.

For a moment Mary stands there,trembling and confused. Washingtongazes upon that pale girl with a look ofsurprise. Loot ! she is about to warnhim of his danger when see there! berfather's rough face appears above thehead of the stairs.

" Mary, show' the gentleman into thatroom on the left And, look ye, girl, itsgetting late, and you had better go intoyour room and go to sleep.'1

While the tory watches from tho headof the stairs Washington outers thechamber on the left; Mury the o*ie onthe right.

An hour passes. Still the storm beatson the roof; still the snow drifts in thehills. J3efore the fire, iu the dim oldhall, of the farm house, are seven drunk-en men. with that tall fciry, Jacob -Manheim, sitting in their widt;t, the murder-er's knife in his haudj for the lot hasfallen on Lin.. l ie is to go up and subthe sleeping man.

Even the half drunken murderer turnspale at the thought; how the knife trem-bles in his guilty hand—trembles »/the pistol barrel; the jeers of his com-rades arouse him to the work ; the lightis in one hand, the knife iu the other; hegoes up stairs; he listens, first at theSoot of his daughter's roo;n on the right,and then at the door of the soldier's ouli ft. All is stiil Then he places theLight on the floor; he enters the eh:imber on the left; he is gOne a moment.Silence ! there is a faint groan. Hecomes forth again, rushes down i-tuirs,and stands before the lire with the bloodyknife in his hand.

'' Look 1" he shrieks, as he scattersthe red drops over his comrades, and overthe hearth into tho fire. " Look! it isthe traiiOi, Washington ?"

His -omrados gather around him withyells of joy ; already in fancy, theycount tho gold which will be theirs forthis deed ; when lo ! the stair door opens,and there, without a wound, standsGeorge Washington, asking calmly forhis horse !

"What !" shrieked the tory Manheim," can neither steel nor bullets harm you ?Are you a living man ? Is there nowound in your uniform ?"

Tiie apparition drives him mad.He starts forward ; be places his hand

tremblingly upon the arms and breast ofWashington. He then looks at thebloody knife, clasped iu his right hand,and stands there quivering in the deathspasm.

While Washington looks on in silentwonder, the door is thrown open ; thebold troopers from VaKey Forge throngthe room with the gallant and bronzedvisage of Capt V> illiams id their midst

At this moment the old clock iu theroom struck twelve.

Then a horrid thought crashed throughthe brain of the tory, Manheim. £ieseizes the light, rushes to the room o!his daughter, on the right. Some onehad just risen from the bed- the cham-ber was vacant—then towards the cham-ber on the left, with steps of leadenheaviness ! Lo ! now the kuite quivciviu his hand. He pauses at the door—helistens—lug blood curdles in his reins.—Gathering courage, he pushes open thedoor—goes towards the bed, throughwhose curtains he had struck so blindly amoment ago. Again he pauses—not asound; stillno-ss more terrible than thegrave He flings aside the curtains

There, in the full light of the lamp,her form but half covered, buthed in herown blood—there lay his daughter Mary.

And do not look upon the face of herfather, as he starts silcntiy lack, ttot instone ; but in the pause of horror, listento the mystery of the deed.

After the father had gone down stairsan hour ago, Mary silently stole from thechamber on the right, tier soul shakenfrom a thousand fears She opened thedoor on the left, and beheld Washingtonsitting at the table. She thought herexistence was in the act, she asked him,in a tone ol calm politeness; to enterthe room on the right. Mary enteredthe chamber ou the left.

Can you imagine the agony of thatgirl's soul, as. lying ou the bed intendedas the death couch of WashingUm, shesilently awaited the knife although thatknife might be clenched in a "fathershaiid.

And now that father, frozen to stone,stood thefe, holding the light in one handthe other stiil clenching the red knife.

There lay his child, the blood stream-ing from that wound in her arm, hereyes covered with a. glassy lilm.

"Mary !" shrieked the guilty father—for robber and tory as he was, he calledto her but that was all he could say.

Suddenly she seemed to wake from thatstupor. She sat up in bed, with glassyeyes. The strong hand of death was onher. As she sat there, erect and glausy,the room was thronged with solders —Her lover rushed forward, and calledher by name. No answer. Call'd again—spc ke to her in that familiar voice ofolden time; still no answer. She knowhim not.

Yes, it was true—the strong baud ofdeath was upon her,

" He has escaped ?" she said, with ahusky voice.

" Y e » P shrieked the father. " L \ e ,Mary, ossly live, and lo -morrow I willjoin the camp at Valley Forge."

There that girl • the hero woman—dy-| ing as sho was, not so much from thewound in her arm as from tho agonywhich has brokeu her last chord of life,spread forth her arms as if she beheld a.form floating above the bed beckoningher away

11 Mother!'' she whispered, while theregrouped the goldiers—there, with speech-less ago.) y ou his brow, stood the lover— there hiding his face with one hand,while the other grasped the light crouch-ed the father—the light flashing overher dark bed, with the form in its center" Mother, thank God! For with mylife I have saved him—"

Look ! even as staring on that bloodycouch there, she speaks that half finned

! word, her arms stiffen, her eyes wideopen, « t iu death, glare iu her lather'sface.

She is dead. From the room her spirithas gone

That half formed word, st:'l quiveringon the lips of tho heroic woman—thatword uttered in a husky whisper, chokedby the death rattle, was— WASHINGTON

" ONLY MOTHER;"Or, tiie First Lessons in Drilling.

The July sun wns almost overhead iuthe hcivcns, drinking up the water fromthe little brooks, and fairly scorching tl-eshorl grasses in the pastures. The cattleleft feuding in the meadow and stoodknee deep in the pond, where the thickshadows of the wood fell over it. It wasfar too warm to work, or even to play,so the boys who had been standing all themorning with their fishing lines dang-ling over the railing of the bridge, putup their books and throw themselvesdown in the cool shade of the old elmson the bank. They lnndo a very prettypicture as they biy there, with their shirtcollars unbuttoned, and their moist hairpushed baou from their flushed faces,—Uueof them, Willie Downer, had a pictorial newspaper in his pocket, with largeengravings of the companies ol soldiersat VV ashington, their camp grounds, il igs,and cannon, and the uniforms they wore,He spread the paper on the grass, andbegan explaining the pictures to his com-jiaiiion, Archie Morris,

" If I was only old enough," S-iid Wil-lie eanio tly, " I should enlist for a sol-dier. It would be so grand to go and

for the country, and defend our ltb-t ill. s Don't you witih you were a man,Archie?"

" Yes," said Archie, " I should like tobe a nriij, but mother says *ve need notwait till that time to be bravo ; we canshow our courage now."

" I know," said Willie ; " cousin Ly-man joined tho company, and he is onlythree years older than I, but then he iaas tall as father, every bit."

"That wasn't what mother meant,"said Archie; "she said a good soldiermust be ready to undertake any duty,and it took t great deal more oourdo little disagreeable things than tomarch up iu the face of an enemy in bat-tle. Then the first duty of every soldierwas to learn to ebey orders, and that isjust what we boys are doing."

\\ illie looked a good deal dissatisfied,and did not seem to like this view of themutter; but just at this moment some-

came to the door of one of thowhite cottag»« just below the bridge, andcalled. '• Willie! Willie!' He did notstir, but on examining the paper.

"douiebody called you, Willie," saidArchie, looking toward the house!).

' ' I t ' s only mother," replied JVillie;" she wants me to go of somo errand, and1 alii not goiug out isi this hot sun."

Archie looked at him a moment inastonishment, arid then asked " But whatwill sh say wbcu you go hoaoe?*'

' •0 ," said V-. illie carelessly, "BIIO won'tk>,o,v I beard her, for I didn't turn myhead a bit."

" She is going to the spring for water,"said Archie, still watcihiug Ihe house ;" 1 would scorch my f&oe to a blister be-fore L would lie here and let my motherdo tha£.'

' Pooh I" said Willie, " that's nothing;she is so us ; er the Lot stovethat aho doa't iniud it much."

Just toman with a baby in herto the window of the other

cotuae and called Archie." Ay, aj I ' said Archie, springing up,

and swinging bis hat towards the house>'•Don't go yet, Archie," said Willie;

•'just wait till we iiunh this paper; itI make any difference."

" I'm learning to obey orders" saidArchie; ' besides I know mother wantsme to take care of tho babv while shegets dinner."

'' I do hate biby-tending; it's iiirlswork,'' svid Willie.

'• So is cooking and washing clothes,but the soldiers have to do both. Rightabout face.'" s:.id he, shouldenifish pole, r.ml starting for home, " myoornapny has received marching orders."

" J u s t i n tune Archie," said his mo-ther, placing the b;;by in his arms. ' 1see my volunteer means to be on handwhenever his orders come "

Now, Archie really disliked tendingbaby veiy much, especially on such a verywarm day, who,; it took nil his patience.and tngeuuity to amuse his little brother,m ide u usually fretful by the heat. Butone glance into the heated kitchen, wherehi:; mother was busy over the glowingstove, made him think himself very for-equate to be able to reinaiu .11 the siroom, with closed bliiiiis and open win-dows. But baby wi.s not at all pleasedwith the darkened room. He wouldnot sit on the fiobr and roll Archie's ball ;he would not laugh at all atArchic's an-stic and grimmaces; he wanted to be carrieil, and carried he must be.

•'Come on then," said Arohie, tossinghim to his shoulders. " Now I'm on afuFOed luiireh froia Washington to Texas,and this is my knapsack and blanket.—Heavy load, h.it weather—mercury upto £00 degrees in the shade — whole aimyof secessiouers running away from us —bound to get there before morning—bundstrike up 'Yankee DooJle"—and he 30mmenced rapidly pacing the room, whistling Yankee Doodle, to baby's greatsit.is action.

Just as ho was beginning to find itpretty hard work, the door opened, andhis sister Sarah came iu from school.—•' Turn out and relieve guard," said Ar-chie, dropping the baby into her lap, andthrowing himself full length ou the oarpet

" You're full of your war nonsense,"said Sarah, laughing.

" 0 well;* said Archie, " anything toamuse baby and keep a fallow good-uatured,"

The Art of Shopping,Wo are all sa'isiied that gentlemen

have no genius for shopping. They arenot ''{juul to it. Nature has left their fa-cilities imperfeot in that particular.—They can write books and make speeches,and all that sort of thing, but they arenot up to shopping. I t takes the ladiesfor that, Men go to the store select what

' they want, and buy it. But that is notshopping; that requires r;o genius. Menpretend they do not like to go shoppingwith tho ladies. I wonder "who ever ask-ed them? What lady would have suchan inoumbrarrCe on such occasions? Menare well enough iu their places. Younggentlemen are convenient to take us toconcerts, and gee us home from church,and brings us bouquets and music ; andlitisbas.ds are useful to pay the bills, &c,but for a shopping excursion they aroquite out of place. Do you understandmo to insinuate that I have distinguishedability that way? Not at all; t onlyspeak of my sex. In fact, I acknowledgemyself a poor hand at it. But myfriend, Sallie 11 is a model shopper,I em taking lessons of her, and hope tobe perfect by the time I am married.—A few days since she invited me to gowith her.

" I wish to look at the new stylo ofsilks," said she.

" Why, do you want to get a newL asked.

" Really," said Sallie, " if it was notimpolite, 1 should say that you area ver-dant I don't want a dross, but that'slu) reason why I should not see the ma-terial."

So Sallie and I sallied out. Tho firststoro wo entered she asked whether thomerchant had received his .spring goods.Lie. said he had, and inquired what showould like to see?

"»how me your new style dress goods,"said she "such us barege rubes, and lawnrobes, and handsome striped plaid Bilks;brocades and changeable sii'js are 1. it

: much worn this spring, but I'll iuok atyour solid colors."

1 he merchant soon had his counterspread with goods. She examined andtossed them about, making various creas-es iu them to s'.'o whether they wouldcome out again by rubbing

"What style is worn?" said Sallie tothe clerk.

"Well, wo sell probably more plaidstripes than any other. '

"tiave you any with chene stripes?"inquired Sallio

•'Oh, yes! somo very fine," aud a num-ber of pieces were produced.

'•Well, I can't say, after all, that I likethe chene stripes; the green is very pret-ty."

So Sullio held it in various lights, rubbiug it and creasing it

"Well, it don't cre.iso much," said she,"I wonder whether it will cut?"

"No, it is boiled silk; and we find thatthe plaid* aud stripes wear very well."

" l o u r silks are very pretty, and youmay cu: oil'a sample if you please/' con-tinued Sallia

This the merchant was forced to do,though with rather a bad grac \ B • is Iof his goods wero VJ patterns aud he fearedspoiling the piece.

"Will you bd kind enough to givo mesamples of the solid colors?"

They were all furnished."This plaid, you say, is $1.37 ? Is

that the lowest?""Yes, we can't take less.""How many yards in tho pattern?""Fourteen.""I'd rather have eighteen; perhaps I

placed tho responsibility of the Groiouarmies upon the shoulders of a retflarkn-b!e man. This is trua not only in thecommon but tho original acceptation1' ofthe word. BlcClellan ha* always' bceu,a marked man. And novr e!>p«*iaVly,when

a brief review of his past life and sen f-eea is as much a duty as a pleasure toevery citizen who' helps him carry thoweight of our threatened commonwealth.

G-eorgo B, McOlellan' was horn iuPhiladelphia on the 3d of December,1826, his father being an eminonO physi-cian of that city. At the age of liS, orin 1812, he entered the West PointAcademy, and in 18-16, at the age oftwenty, was graduated second in his olag*On the first of July of that year lie wasbrevetted seoond lieutenant of enginoera)By an act of Congress passed during tlio'May previous, a company cf. sappers-,minors and poutoniers was added' to thoengineer corps and in this company 2ktc*Clellan was commissioned.

Brevet Brigadier General TottbnjChief j!ji;gineor of the army eommaudedby Gen. Scott befo-'O Vera Cruz, speaks'of MeOlellan's genius and energy in th'st-company in the highest terms. His et-ertions in drilling the recruits who camainto his company to be prepared for thoarduous labors of tho Mexican war Wcraindefatigable. With the aid of but two'other officers he succeeded so perfectly indrilling the seventy-one raw men whohad come into his hands only two months-before, that on tho 24th of Septemberthey sailed from West Point, reported byGenera] Toticn as "in a- state.of admira*ble discipline/'

During the war this company wa? rft-duced to forty five effective men and twoofficers—one of whom was McClellan.—He is repeatedly mentioned in connectionwith the corps as exhibiting cousumnntepatience and ability. His company cer^rouce lost its discipline, and perforu>«»Jsome of the most toilsome duties of tliowar under very trying circumstances?—Gen. Tottea makes especial mention'O?tho labors performed by McClellan be-fore Vera Cruz He speaks of him1 as" animating his corps by his own devo-tion and z al," of '' the unsurpassed in-telligence. a;.d zeal with which he tookhis share in the direction of the siege."

At Coatreras McCleilan was selected,with another engineer to rcconnoitre'tliastrong breastworks of the enemy. Theyhad their horses shot under them, andbarely escaped capture by the Mexicanpickets. When the action commencedMcClellan was with Magruder's battery'.While it was still doing good ser ies ; its-commander, Callender, was wouuded:—McClellan immediately took command ofit, and managed it until it was entirelydisabled, with such success as to sustainits previous reputation. Gen. Twiggsimmediately presented hi3 name for pro-motion to Gen. Scott, and after showingconsummate bravery in the action ofChuruboseo, which took place next day,he was brevetted first lieutenant: Inthe uext battle, Molino del Hoy—hia^be-havior was so gallant that ho was eleva-ted to a captaincy. He declined to rc-ceivo it, aud continued lieutenant on! theday of Chapultepcc, when Gen. Scottmentions him as " winning the admirationof all about him." Ho was the first toenter the Almeda with a company Whichho commanded, and during the day ofthe assault repulsed a body of Mexicans,greatly outnumbering his own corps,with a loss of twenty to the enemy.

He continued in aciive service'fromthe commencement of his company's1 or-ganization until Gen. Scott occupied thocity of Mexico. He returned from1 thewar with the rank of o.tptain of thacompany, now greatly augmented; ofsappers, miners and pontoniers. Be-tween 1818 and 1S51 he translated8from,the French a manual ol bayonet exiriiiao, >which has become the text book of' thearmy.

In 1851 ho superintended tho1' con-struction of Fort Delaware. In 185-2he explored tho lied River, under Cajp,t.Marcy, and surveyed the harbors airdrivers of Texas as the senior engineer onthe sUff of Ge:. Persifer F. Smith;

In 1853 McClellan was employed'oa »survey to ascertain the best rout* for arailroad between the Mississippi aud. thaPaciflv—also in the exploration cf the47th and 49th parallels of north latitude.His report gained the commendation <*fJeff, Davis, then Secretary of War.

For three years more McClellan WMvariously employed. After executing asecret service commission in the West In-dies, and reciving a commission in theU. S. Cavalry, ho was appointedone of amilitary commission of three officers to.proceed to the Crimea and Northern Rus-sia, for observation of the conflict thenexisting, and his report on " Tho' Opera-tions of the War," is thought by armyofficers a most valuable work.

In 1857 Ue resigned his positidn'in thearmy, the peaceful condition of the coun-try scorning to demand his services nolonger, to take a place in the manage-ment of the Illinois Central Railroad asits Vice-President and Chief Engineer.After years of work upon that road hebecame general Superintendent of th»Ohio and Mississippi line. He waff-act-ing on that po3t whou the rebollion brokeout. Gov. Curtin, of Pennsylvania,- ap-plied to him to undertake the drganiji-tion of the volunteer forces of thatState; but he hud previously accept ;d as milar oft'r from Ohio. In the assjm-blin,'of the forces of the litter State,and n pi c ng them on an efficient warfooting, h< exhibited so much of that de-termination and originality which hadcharacterized his former sarvieeg in M»Vioo, tint he was appointed Bliijor-Gens-ral in the U. 8. Army, with command ofa department, which included Ohio andWestern Virginia. Since that time hisreco d is not history—it is the preterit.

Gen. McCleliau married within thelast two of three years, tho daughter ofCapt Marcy, under whom he made hisRod River Exploration.

From the London Star, Oct. 17.

Lord*John R'isseil should havo obMtved th>' rigidly constitutional ntti-tudeof Mr. Linc i ln's governmeni beforehe rashly de.-c:ibed it as that of a corn-bat-ant i" r ' em | i r e . " Would our For-eign Secretary permit its applicationto his OAU government, by the minister«ither of a despotism or a republic, ifr«abllion were to show itself in one ofib« three kingdoms?

•ransforuiations. It lifts up one and putsdown another with an almost despotic au•r.o.-ity. It is a touchstone that bringsout to vkw the native character and realtspacity of wpiranta for military com-mand. Ho HI whom there is the 6tufffrom which a great commander is madebecomes manifest, while all the artificialglitter that may have surrounded the in-eompetent officer in time of peace isItripped away.

On one occasion, an officer in the ar-my of tho first Napoleon solicited thebaton of a Marshal. " I t is not I thatinako Marshal.-",'said Napoleon; " i t isTictories." Capacity for command, pro•en by tho emergencies was what ho re-quired, l ie asked for what he was ac-customed to call " a military bead" inhim who wished to be the head of mili-tary movements.

Changes among an army's superior offi-een«, except for imperative reasons, are tobe deprecated. The period of transi-tion from the control of one officer tothe direction of another, is liable to be areason of disaster. And if it is notfraught with positive danger to the army,yet it is likely to bo a season of compara-tive inefficiency. Such changes shouldonly be made for cogent military reasons,to bo decided upou by competent inilitary authority.

The demands of civilians for militaryfhanges cannot safely be allowed greatweignt,-because their opinions on such• abjeuta a.re so liable to the suspicion oferror. Tlie judgment of the civilians ofthe opposition, who flourished half a cen-tury ago on the hustings and in the British Parliament, was utterly adverse tothe continuance of the Peninsular War;if it had been allowed to decide, it wouldhave deposed Wellington from his com-mand at any time between his first landing at Mondego Bay and his last conflict«t St. Sebastian. The result of the cam-paign, however, and the final expulsionef the Freuch from Spain, fully justifiedtho sagacity of Lord Castlereagh in the•election of the commanding officer, andthe wisdom of Wellington in his plansfor tho prosecution of the strife. Butwhen competent military authorities de-cide, from evidence presented, that anyofficer has not the capacity for a generalQOinmaud, we must choose tho smallerevil, and he njust yield his place.

I t is by success that a General is final-ly to be mad"—success in a large andcomprehensive military view. This iswhat Napoleon meaut. He never domanded, as the price of tho Marshal'sbaton, a record of advances, with no ro-treats, successes with no reverses, gainswith no losses. Ho well knew that mtnnjay losi! battles, yet win campaigns; thatihoy may err at particular points, yetfully compensate for their mistakes bythe ujagnitude ot the graud results whichthey achieve. The achieving of finalresults was, in his esteem victory—such»ictories made tha Marshal.—Phil. Jth

Philadelphia. Nov. 12The fitqnirtr has tho following fro^i i

Fortress Monroe, derived from rebel Isources: " I n anticipation of ('.,o srri- jval of the great expedition, the rebelshad been engaged in erecting batteriesupon a point at Hilton's Bead, and onthe opposite neoli of land. The princi-pal fortification on Hilton's Head wasdenomiuatod Fort Walker, situated onlow land, cni partially coticejled bytrees and under brush. Adjoining itwore odiet batteries of smaller size, butso connected as to prove a formidablebar to tho entrance of vessels.

'• Fort lienufort was of considerableimportance, having been mounted withheavy guns. The garrisons are supposedto have been composed of South Caro-lina regiments assisted by additional regiinents sent fiom Richmond. Tho bat-teries at Buy Point, opposite HiltonHead, were equally formidable.

' ' Inside of Port Royal entrance, and .behind the batteries, lay the fleet ofCommodore Tatnall, which consisted only iof small vessels carrying a few heavj !guns but principally light ones. Tugs jConstituted a great portion of the fleet.Many of these remained outside of theentrauce till the arrival of our fleet, whenthey formed in miniaturo line of battle,in the position already stated, behind theguns of their own forts, aud across theentrance.

" On the morning of Thursday last,the Unsted States fleet, numbering forty-two vessels, headed by the flag ship, ap-proach the mouth of Port lvoyal entrance.This was at half past 9 o'clock. Severalof the transports remained off the coast.Upon arriving at a suitable position, theguns of tbo fleet opened a continuoustire upon Forts Walker and Beauregand,as well as upon those of Bay Point.—Under 3over of this fire an effort wasmade to run tho gauutlct of the batter-ies which the}7 did. A number of thevessels pushed through the fire from theshore batteries, with very trifling injuries.At least fifteen of thorn succeeded inpassing up beyond the reach of land bat-teries.

"As the Union fleet sailed up, tho mos-quito fleet of Tatnall opeucd fire, butseeing the impossibility of making anyresistance, BOOH dispersed. .Somo wereforced to run on shore. Others weredriven up the inlets out of eiyht.

" Com. Tatnall woot on shore with hisme".i to assist in working the batteries,and use them against our vessels, whichwere endeavoring to follow tho" advanceof the others. The passige of the fleetthrough the channel was not accomplisheduntil the firing had continued from half-past four in the inoruing till nearly fivein the evening.

" One of the Union gun-boats is be-lieved to have been burned aud threesteamers disabled.

" I t is acknowledged by the enemythat they had twenty men killed in FortWalker, but it is impossible to state whattheir loss was at the other batteries,doubtless very great, as our tiro is said tohave been very effective and the gunswc-1 aimed aud of heavy calibre.

" No sooner did our vessels go past thobatteries at Port Royal eutranuo andsliue into what is termed Broad River,than they made for the mouth of the in-lets lead.ng to Beaufort, Savannah andCharleston. These they immediatelyblockaded though not iu time to preventthe escape of small rebel vessels.

" Not one of the Federal vessels wassunk, and the only one believed to havebeen destroyed by fire was tho gun-boatreferred to above. The crew are said tohave passed through a murderous fire toanother vessel, which they reached withvery little, if any, loss.

" The Union vessels acted under specialinstructions in blockading the inletswhich led to the most important points,aud which afforded loop holes of escape tothe enemy.

" VV hile a portion 6*F the fleet enteredupon this duty, four ships made at oucofor Beaufort, and at three o'clock onThursday these vessels were in sight ofthe town.

" A dispateh dated Beaufort, Nov. 7th,to the Charleston Mercury, saj'3 at thattime the Union forces were preparing toULCI, evidently with the design of throw-ing^up iatrenchments and attacking thetown.

" Wo havi no means of knowing theexact loss of the Union forces, but therebels confers that their own firing wasvery bad, and thoir artillery men werebadly in want of practice. They declaremoreover that the guns iu the fort wereuO!- Droperly mounted. When Commo-dore' 'IVuall went to assist tho men inthe forts, he f'nind that many of theircannou were dismouti'-ed by their own re-bound. To this fault the rebel journalsattribute their defeat, and louu'ij' call up-on the Confederate government to til'Aout where tho blame rests.

" A telegraph dispatch, which JcftRichmond on Saturday, stated that therewas nothing particularly important fromthe Southern coast. I t is evident fromthis that the rebel government has pro-hibited any further information fromcoming north of Richmond. This im-plies that they have suffered a heavydefeat.

"The Charleston Mercury, after sum-ming up results, says: "The Yankeesseem to have driveu Commodore Tatuall'sMosquito Fleet up the creeks leading toSavannah, aud cut off all water commu-nication with Charleston by sailing upSkull Creek. Although the Yankeeshave, effected as yet uo landing, it is cer-tain they havo made some progress, a nilit behooves jus to immediately send suchreinforcements as may be needed tooheek any movements they may mako to-ward* gaining even tho smallest footholdou our soil. If the invaders can"'takeCharleston with 25,000 men, let them, aswe w u l d be unworthy to po-scss it, andit will be a fit memorial, laid in ashes, ofour own Southern imbecility.'

" The following is a special dispatch tothe Charleston Meicury:

" Hendersonville, Nov. 7 , - 9 P . M." The practice of our artillery at Hil-

ton Head has been very bad, hence thesuccessful passage of seven of the ene-mies men of war. Their transports arostill outside. Our loss thus far been hasvery slight, and the troops are good inheart.

" The firing of the Yankee war vesselswas very accurate. Hiltou's Head andBay Point, as at first reported, receivedthe brunt of the attack. Our failure tosink apy of the vessels which passed ourbatteries is owing to the poor practice ofthe artilleryidts.

" The enemy's ships, which passed ourbatteries, can be distinctly seen fromBeaufort. Forts Walker and Beaure-gard are still firing.

"The enemy has lost one gunboat,which was burned. Shells can be scanfrom here bursting in the woods.

" Our lines of communication are senthere with artillery and cavalry.

" Four ships are now in sight near tlieland and up as far as Skull Creek.

11 There is reason to believe that theenemy aro now making preparations toland a large force at Hilton Head, eitherto-night or to morrow morning.

Coffee Drinking1,How stroujj should coffto be taken,

is nn inquiry of much practical impor-tance. How much should be taken atn nheal, is scarcely of less moinont.Coffee, like any other beverage, maywholly ruin the health ; the vary useolit tends to this ruin, as certainly usdoes the use of wine, cider, beer, orany other unnatural, stimulating drink.There is only ono safe plan of usingcoflee, and that is, never under anycircumstance.", except of an extraor-dinary character, exceed in quantity,frequency or strength; take only onecup at the regular meal, and of agiven, UBtf&rying strength. In thisway it may bo used tor a lifetime, notonly without injury, but with greateradvantage, than an eqnal amount ofcold water, and for the simple reasonthat nothing cold should be drunk at aregular meal, except by persons inyigorour health.

One pound of tho bean should makesixty cups of tho very best coffee. If aroan takes coffee for breakfast only, onepound should last him two months, orsix pounds a year.

One pound should be made to last afamily of ten persons, young and old,one week. Put about two ounces ofground coffee in a quart of water, orrather, divide the pound into sevenportions, one for each breakfast in theweek, and make a quart of coffee outof it, which will bo sixty-four tablo-ppoonfuls. Give the youngest twotaalespooniuls, and lite oldest a dozen;the remainder of the cup being filledup with boiled milk. This will give acup of coffee sufficiently strong tor allhealthful purposes, lor the respectiveages; and for various reasons,pecuniary, as well as physical, someeuob, systematic plan as this should beadopted in every family in tho landHow to make the cup of coffee? is athird question. It is perhaps as goodand as easy a plan as any to buy thecoffee in the grain, pick out those thatare imperfect, wash it, parch as muchas will la^t a day or two, with your eyeupon it all the time until it is of a richferown, with no approach of blue!;about it. Grind only enough for theday's ufe; grind it fine, for the greatertho surface exposed to tbo hot waterthe more of the essence you will have :

pour the boiling water on tho coffee,close it up and boil it ten minutes, letit stand to clear ten minutes, then use.—IlaU't Journal of Health.

How the Chinese Make Dwarf Trees.We have all known from childhood

how the Chinese cramp their women'sfoot, and so inana^o to make them" keepers at home," but how the}' con-trive to grow miniature pines and oaksin flower-pots for half a century hasalways boon much of a secret. It isthe product chiefly of skillful, longcontinued root-pruning1. Thev aim,first and last, at the seat of vigorousgrowth, endeavoring to weaken it as farus may cousist with the preservation oflife. They begin at the biginning.—Taking a young plant (any a Beedlingor cutting of a cedar) when only twoor three inches high, they cut oiF itstaproot as soon as it has other rootletsenough to li /o upon, and replant it in ashallow earthen pot or pan. Tho endof the tap-root is generally made lorest on tho bottom of the pan, or on aflat stone within it. Alluvial clay isthen put into the pot, much of it in bitsthe si/.o of beans, and just enough inkind and quantity to furnish a scantynourishment to the plant. Waterenoi'gh is given to keep it in growth,but not enough to excite a vigoroushabit. So, likewise, in the applicationot' light and heat. As tho Chinesopride themselves also on tho shape oftheir miniature trees, tlioy use strings^Wires, nnd pegs, and various othermechanical contrivances, to promoteRVmmetry of habit, or to fashion theirpets into odd fancy figures. Thus, byI te use of very shallow pots the growthof the tap-root is out of tho question;by the use of poor soil, and little of it,and little water, strong growth is pre-vented. Then, too, the tap and sideroots being within easy reach of thegardener, are shortened l;y his prun-niflg*kni£e, or searod with his hot iron.So tho little treo, finding itself headedon every side, gives up tho idea ofstrong growth, asking only for life, andjust growth enough to livo and lookwell. Accordingly, each new set ofleaves becomes more and mere stunted,tho buds and rootlets are diminished inproportion, and at length a balance isestablished between every part of thetree, making it a dwarf in all respects.'In some kinds ot trees this end isreached in three or four years; inothers ten or fiftoon years aro noces-t*i<y. Such is fancy horticulture amongthe Celestials.

EHow THK TROOPS ON THE GULP FARE.

•—The only communication with FortsTaylor, Pickuns and Jefferson, on theGulf, is by water. Once a fortnight,and oftenor if necessary, a steamer•goes down from Now York laden withsupplies of all sorts for these garrisons.All summer the troops at these postshave been constantly supphod not onlywith salt provisions and deesioatedmeats, but with an abundance of flushbeef nnd other meats, together with£a_rge quantities of ice. Our troops ontho Gulf have fared far better than therebels in the States. Apart from thesupplies sent by the government, everyslcamcr lias carried cart loads of lux-uries sent to the officers and men bytheir families and friends.
