' When first the skies grow warm and bright,
And flush with gold the hours,
And in her pale, faint robes, the Spring,
Is calling up the flowers ,'
When children, with unslippered feet,
Go forth with hearts of glee
To the straight and even furrow-
Where the golden corn must be;
What a beautiful embodiment
or case, devoid of pride,
Is the good old-fashioned homestead,
' With doors still open wide.
But when the happiest time is come
That to the year belongs,
Of uplands bright with harvest gold,
And meadows full of songs ;
When fields of yet nnripened corn,
And daily garnered stores,
Remind the thrifty husbandman
0f ample threshing floors—
How pleasant, from the dln'and dust
0f the thoroughfare aloof.
Seems the old-fashioned homestead
With steep and messy roof.
When home the woodman plods, with axe
Upon his shoulder swung, '
And in the knotted apple-tree
Are ICythe and sickle hung;
When light the swallows twitter
’Neuth the rafters of the shed,
And the table on. the NM porch
With decent care is spread—
Then hearts are lighter and freer
Than beat in the populous town,
In the old-fashioned homestead,
With gables sharp and brown,
When the flowers of Summer perish,
. In the cold and bitter rain,
And little birds with weary wing,
Bav'e gone across the main;
When curls the blue awoke upward
Toward. the Inner slur.
And cold, along the naked hills.
And white the snow-drifts lie-
In legends of love and glory '
They forget the cloud and atom
In the good old-fashioned homestead.
With hearthstone large and warm.

The Young Widow.
BY ROBERT JOSSILYN.
She is modest, but not bashful,
Free and easy. but not hold.
Like an apple, ripe and. mellow.
Not too young and not too. old;
Half inviting, half repulsive,
Now advancing, and now shy.
There is mischief in her dimple ;
There is danger in‘ber cyo.
She has studied human nature;
She is schooled in all her arts;
She has taken her diploma,
As the mistress of all hearts.
She can tell the very moment
When to sigh and when to smile:
0, a maid is sometime charming.
But a widow all the while.
Are you sad? how very serious
Will her handsome face become ;
Are you angry ? sheis wretched,
Lonely, friendless, tearful, dumb ;
Are you mirthl’al? how her laughter,
Silver: sounding will ring out;
She can lure, and catch and play you,
As the angler does the trout.
Ye old bachelors of forty,
Who have grown so old and wise ;
Young America of twenty,
With the love looks in your eyes ;
You may pructice all the lessons,
Taught by Cupid since the fall,
ButI know a little widow,
Who could win and feel you all,»
mes TOWN, 111a,}
July 13th, 1863.
. 'DEAR Brmcrom—Since you left us at
Gettysburg, the 17th have had a new experi-
ence in connection with the cavalry. Yes-
terday morning at 3 A. M., the order came
for our Division to accompany Gen. Kilpat-
rick on a reconnaisaucc to Hagcrstcwn.==
Our untlcipgtions of a quiet Sabbath were
thus blighted, even before the daylight had
appeared. We were not aware of the true
object of our mission, or of the place of
our- dcstination until we were approaching
the twin Just outside of it our cavalry
came upon the rebel’ pickets, directly be-
hind which was a small force. At the first
shot they broke and ran into ,the town and
through it,_ hotly pursued by our (191111113
cavalry. The infantry iollowed on the
double-quick, immediately took possession
of the town, barricaded the entrance to it,
and sent out skirmishers in front of the tab
e1 fortifications. We captured about 100 of
the enemy, including a CO]. or a Major, also
paroling a number of rebel wounded found
in the town.
The whole of Ewell’s force, at the least
calculation 10,000 men, were behind the
(grtlfilcaticns within 34 of a mile from the
town, and yet a force of less than a thou-
sand men, with two regiments of cavalry
and four pieces of artillery held them at bay,
and the town which had been in their pos-
session for four weeks. It wasa most suc-
cessful dash and accomplished, besides re-
gaining the town, the ascertaining of the
rebel position on the left. In the mean-
time the udvance forces of the enemy fell-
bank from Funkstown, to within their line
of fbrtifications and our right wing :1de
At sundown we were ordered to leave the
town, the cavalry occupying our position,
Our reception by the citizens was most de-
lightfully pleasant. More than two-thirds
of the people are enthusiastically Union,
while the small minority qre equally en-
enthusiastic in their secession sympathy.—
T-he number of young ladies is remarkably
large, and the joy and delight, they mani-
fested at the presence of the Union sol-
diers, together with their efforts in furnish-
ing us refreshing food and drink, furnished
a striking contrast to what we saw and ex-
perienced in Pennsylvania. The town is
still held by a portion of our Division and
cur cavalry. At any time the rebels might
retake it, if they were not apprehensive of
alarge force there to receive them, or 'of
some trap into which they think we wish
to lead them. They were certainly fooled
yesterday and that too by a portion of the
11th Corps, which they have affected to de-
spise. Since, however, the battle of Gettyse
purg, where thcinvincible Louisiana Tigers
were several times repulsed by our brigade
and principally by the 17th, they have essen.
tialy reversed their opinion. We may meet
them again and if we do we shall enable
then to strengthen their opinion.
This recon'noisance of the Ist Division,.in
which the 17th bore a part, will be record.
ed as one of the boldest feats of the war.
The rebel force was scatteredlike sheep
before ahaudful of} men and two regiments
pf cavalry, and as the 12th mustering only
120, muskets, stood at the barricade thrown
up at the entrance into the city, by the
Clear Spring road, in full view of' the rebel
intrenchments, a half a mile distant, it was
really a joke worth laughing at and fur-
nished the good people ofthat portion of
bragged over their ability to hold the towu
and defeat any Yankees.
The mail agent is now leaving and I
hasten to close. You will soon hear from us
again. Nonwm.

WWhen Longstreet made the deeper:
ate attempt to turn the left flank of Meade‘s
Army, Thursday afternoon, Lieut Col. Mc-
Gilvery, formerly captain of the 5th Maine
battery, was in command of the artillery in
that part of the field. The correspondent
of the Boston Journal gives the following
accountof his dispositions for repelling the
assault, and of the admirable pertinacity
with which his efforts were seconded by
the Ninth (Bigiow’s) Massachusetts battery :
“A division was detached b Longstreet,
which moved upon Sickles’le flank, to of
between him and the base of Round op
Hill.
"Send up batteries and said up men," was
Sickies, request. They were close upon Big-
elow’s battery. It was its first experience un
der fire. -
"I want you to hold on till I can of it
two batteries on the ridge,” said Col cGli-
very, in command of the artille on the left.
“Give them grape and canister, ’ he added.
Capt. Bigelow gave them all he had, the
lee round, and commenced on spherical
case.
The rebels were desperate. Sicklec was
driven back. It was impossible forhun to
stay so far in front. There was no rout—
no disorder, but a steady backward move—
ment toward the ridge as orderly as if at
dress parade.
A rebel battery hastened u and unlim-
bered close upon Bigelow. c gays them
ashot and they limbered up in. ‘The
two batteries were not yet up, an the Cap-
tain and his brave men would not leave:
The rebels rushed u n his guns. He blew
them from the man es, and filled the air
with legs, heads and arms—Still they came
with demoniac screams, climbing u n his
limbers and shooting his horses. out
two of his men were wounded, and himse f
shot through the side - also four men miss-
ing, but he held on till McGilvary got n his
two batteries He brought of five 0 his
limbers and two of his pieces, dra ing them
in part by hand i More than half is horses
were shot. The rebels seized the four
pieces with shouts, waved their flags and
came on for new triumphs.
But the two batteries, with McGiivery
there to so rintend them, were doing fine-
ly. The division which had come on Sick-
lcs flank received an cnfilading fire, and was
driven beck. Bigelow’s guns were recovered.

DISCHARGE!) men Tun Axum—It is ata-
ted that the returns in the Medical Direct-
or’s office show that since the war commen-
ced 135,000 soldiers had been discharged
from the army on a surgeon’s certificate.
This does not of course includeanyone whose.
time was out, but comprises those whose
health and physical inability to be a soldier
prevented them from being ,of service in the
army.
