May we lift up our faces with one accord, BelvrredHf'om his smiting, and thank the Lord For our impious daring what fell price paid, The lost graves where our dear dead are laid, Beaten for ever from search and from sight By the feet of the hosts that swept on in the fight; And our bosoms left torn by the awful fear That they.jCried for aid when no aid was near, Whenever the Lord seemed not to hear? So is the price of slave tears and blood Lapped by Sout: ern sands, in his sight made good ? Then might not his bared arm be withstood? Soldiers return not with trumpet’s loud glee, Proclaiming you victors, though victors you be. Come as we walk from the tombs of our kin, Gravedo observance, and saddened within. But that nations may know how a foul wrong dies, Shake out the old flag that from henceforth flies— An attainable heaven to languishing eyes! We will put off our weeds for the dear ones sakes, God holds the lost graves till each occupant wakes. We will welcome you home. Lo ! the morning breaks-!. THE LATE 1’RESMT. :I. AUGUST'S HANGEL’s REMINISCENCES OF ABRA- HAM LINCOLN. HI i the last number of the Revile des Deux Maudes appears an interesting article on president Lincoln. The writer is M. Au guste Langel, whose pen has often, and never without profit to his readers, contributed to the same periodical. M. Langel paid a visit to Wasliinatoi) some months ago, and .had ru condition of the Cnjpd it broke out, and on the dency ; but the most a’ .nraci-r. The following scene, fot s graphically sketched : - ill. thy or olkmsive. jmunis ojuste u UL lit AIL£ mtj oxen f La,. 2d A& i1 ■ y where the State keeps a few invalids : nee the Mexican war. In his walks he saw the,' beautiful woods cut down to make room for the parapets and glacis of the forts; and at a short distance wus the large burial ground, where ten thousand graves, all arranged in lines, were still fresh. 1 have seen amidst these woods, this city of the dead, with its long parallels of alleys, its ten thousand white stones, all alike, and each one marked with the name of a soldier. One seems to pass in review these interminable ranks, the sameness of which has .something terrible. These soldiers, who now sleep in an order which, nothing will trouble more, Mr. Lincoln had beheld young, vigorous, and full of health !” While' at Washington M. Langel had the honor of an invitation to accompany Mr. Lincoln to see “Lear” performed, to Ford's playhouse, and in the same box where he was so soon after foully murdered ; “The Washing on theatre is small, and in a state of decay. You reached tlie President’s box by an open passage behind the galleries, and you had only to open and draw a curtain to enter. The front of the box was covered with a piece of red velvet, ,but. the interior was not' covered with either cloth' or velvet. I I was, as may be supposed, more occupied with the President' than'the performance.-- lie, however, listened with attention, though he knew toe play by heart. He followed all the incidents of it with the greatest interest, and talked- withpMr^ Summer and myself only between tlie ac s. His second son, a boy of eleven, was near him, and Mr- Lincoln held him nearly the whole time, leaning on him and often pressed the laughing or abton- ished fans of the child on his bro.d chest.— To his many questions lie repli d with' the g rp a t e s t r p a t i e 1 :. . o King Lear to the sorrows of paternity causeda cloud to pass over the PresideniA brow. for ■ . . : ’ said my friend Charles Sumner Orme, lie told .me that the Prcsi-- . .... a w ik, - ■ •- ter h : his occupations, his cabinet to all vL o to address a petition or claim to him. out for the White House, and entered mom's cabinet, where, without being ho were waiting for their turn-.

The Pla ntat.on Bitte-s are pot only made of pure ma- terial, but the people are told what it is. The Recipe is published around each bottle, and [the bottles are not reduced in size. At least twenty imitations and counterfeits have sprung.up. They impose upon the people once and that’s th e last of them. The Plantation Bitters are now used in all the Government Hospitals, are recommended by the best physicians, and are warranted to produce an immediate beneficial effect. Facts are stubborn things. “ * * I owe much to you, for I verily believe the Plantation Bitters have saved my life. REV. W. IT. WAGGONER, Madrid, N.
