Men Alma Matter.
BY FRANK w. LOCKWOOD.
Mother l what music in the sound
Of-that familiar word,
’Tis sweeter far than all the rest
By mortal beings heard;
The name of her who kindly watched
Our feeble steps in youth,
Drives sorrow from the weary heart
Andwhispers words of truth.
MyMother i had I words to-night
Tliaticould my thoughts reveal
I’d‘tell thee of thine absent boy
, Tlfdlove for thee I feel.
’Twas thine own eye that watched my ways
Wh‘én I was but a child, ’
Andlooked with pleasure on thy boy
And oft so fondly smiled.
Inifeeblest infancy and youth
Yod'Watched my cradle side
And taught me, soon as I could speak,
Myprayer at eventide.
You trained my young and tender mind
The. way that it should lead,
And many other blessed truths
Which now I greatly need.
I call-to mind the many songs
I used to hear you sing,
Which though I heard them long ago,
Still round my memory cling.
I know that I have often caused
Thy heart to throb with pain,
And many times, perhaps you’ve feared
Your words have been in vain.
And-when no car but God’s was near
You’ve breathed your midnight prayer,
ThatzHeaven would deal most graciously
And me in mercy spare.
"l‘isby those prayers I've thus been kept.
Those prayers bedewed with tears
Have (been my guardian angel’s breath,
E'en up to manhood’s years.
But you are growing old, Mother,
Thy days are numbering fast,
Thy mom of life already gone
The. eve will soon be past.
A sheaf already ripe for Him
Who crowns the Harvest Home,
You soon will hear Him say “well doue,”
“ come home my wanderer come.”
Wh6’li care for me then Mother ‘2
Whatkind and gentle hand,
Shall point me o’er life’s pilgrimage
To that far better land ?
Thy lonely boy without a guide,
Shall often sigh for thee,
Foriwho can fill a Mother’s place,
Or who so true can be ?
Without a. Mother, home seems drear
And pleasure tak. s its flight,
The'fairest things that earth can yield
Seem gloomy to the sight.
And when we gather round the hearth
And. see the “vacant chair,"
We often look to see her form,
But Mother is not there.
Then Mother leave me not I pray,
To mourn for thy return,
But Stay with me till life’s frail lamp
For me shall cease to burn.
Then may we go to dwell with those
Who are forever blest,
Andin our Father‘s Home above
May‘we forever rest.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2Ist, ’63.
The work of clearing up, at the Capi.
tOl isbeing briskly advanced, while the
completion of the new dome, and the ele-
vation of the finishing cap, of the statue
of liberty, engrosses the energies . of
all the mechanical force at the command
of {the superintendent. As these new
features of the Capitol extension are lit-
tle understood and must. be of interest to
every friend of the Government, I will
append a few statistical and other des-
criptions furnished me by a friend, who
is curious in the collection of such things :
THE noun. .
This is constructed entirely of Iron and
Bronze. From the base that rests upon
a fouiidation of stone and brick it is 287
feet and 51-2 inches high. The Statue
of Freedom that stands upon it is correct-
ly drewn upon the five dollar greenbacks
and can‘be seen by all parties interested
in its appearance.
The entire weight of iron used is 8,500,-
000 lbs. - The weight of the Bronze
Statue of Freedom is 15,000 lbs ; its
height 19 feet and 4 inches.
The construction of this Dome was
placedgin 1857 in the hands of a most
skillfuland assiduous artizan, Capt. Chas.
F. Thomas, who has had the entire charge
of it up to the present time. He is now
templeting the Tholus upon the top of
.he Dbme and upon which he hopes to
rises .the Statue of Freedom in about
ifteen‘days; The Government have been
nost fortunate in securing the services of
inch a gentleman, wuo with his urbanity,
:kill and indomitable industry, has se-
tured theentire respect and confidence
tot onlyrof the architect, Thomas W.
NaiterijEsq, sand Superintedent CL'L.
Vest, but of the Commissioners and Of.
cars of the Stateand Nation, as well as
11 parties who have been so fortunate as
a make his acquaintance.
To cOnstruct the Tholns and Statue of
‘reedom at such an altitude,has not only
:qnired skill, but the power of invention
as been largely taxed to prepare and
air a scgfiolding of sufficient strength
ad safpty. This has been done by Capt.
has. F. Thomas, the builder, and has
ieited'v'the admiration of the scientific on
)th hemisiphercs. It was built in four
ctionsLits base resting upon the top of
e dome. It is 88 feet 4 inches high,
id its diameter 35 feet 11 inches. Not-
.thstandiug its elevation, the duties to
= performed by it in the hoisting of such
tsses nOf iron, and the extraordinary
les of'ywind that prevail here, it has

ined. '

INTERIOR or ran DOME.
When finished its internal appearance
ll be like that of a glass shade orna-
ated'with historic paintings. The di;
l1.
the external diameter being 124’ feet
9 1.2 inches. Lighted, as it is, waning
windows, also with gas at night, the view
will be sublime—worthy of the American
nation—and no doubt will attract notice,
EurOpe.
But the internal speciality is placed at
the juncture of the passage from the old
Representatives Hall into the new and is
denominated
THE BRONZE DOOR .
This door so full of historic interest was
constructed at Munich, Italy, at a cost
or $40,000, upon an order made by Mr.
Randolph Rogers. It has just been set
in the Capitol and will be an object‘ of
great curiosity 'to all parties who have
any interest in the preliminary steps and
progress of the founding of this Nation,
It is said to be the only work of the
Rind in the world thus constructed, and
weighs 20,000 pounds.
The leading subjects of its embellish-
ments is the history of Columbus. It
has two valves, with four panels in each
valve, and one semicircular panel over
transom. The first panel beginning at
the bottom of the left hand valve, cou-
taius a scene representing Columbus be-
fore the Council of Salamanca '; the sec-
ond panel his leaving the Convent of La
Rapada ; the third panel his audience
panel his departure from Palos. The
semi-circular panel over the transom rep-
resentshis first landing at San Salvador;
the fifth panel his first encounter with
the Indians on the Island of Hispaniola;
the sixth panel his triumphant entry into
Barcelona; the scene in the seventh'pan-
cl represents him a prisoner in chains,
about to be sent back to Spain, and the
eighth panel contains a scene represent‘
ing his death._ There are sixteen small
niches in the border or frame around the
deor, in which are sixteen statuettes rep-
resenting distinguished cotemporaries of
Columbus, and between the panels are
heads representing historians who have
written-on his voyages, from his- own time
”down to the present day, ending with
Irving and Prescott. The ornaments are
highly emblematic Of Conquest and Navi-
gation. When it is understood that all
these scenes are represented by statuettes,
it will readily be understood that “the
pen of a ready writer” cannot portray
them with such language as to convey a
just impression to the mind of the reader.
The task is as hopeless as it would be to
attempt adeseription of Leutzes’ French
picture of Western Emigration. These,
. like a number of ornaments about the
Capitol, must be seen tO be appreciated,

CAMP IN THE FIELD, NEAR VER-
MILLION, La., Nov. 8, 1863. l
Massas. EDITORS: A few words from
us at this time may be interesting to your
readers, because we are so far from home
in this wilderness, where we see nothing
but woods and prairies, seldom a’ house,
but plenty of mud shanties, with few in-
habitants, as the men are soldiers in the
Confederate army, while the women have
been sent to Texas or to parts unknown.
We are now encamped in sight of quite a
village, where the people are all secesh
clear through, for they have very long
faces when we march through the place,
which we have several times of late, to
meet the enemy, some ten miles above, to
what is called Carrion Crow Bayou,
where we had a brush with them on the
15th of last month, and drove them sev.
eral miles. A day or two afterwards we
marched to Opelousas, some 12 miles.
beyond the battle-ground, which was
called Buzzards’ Prairie. On the 4th of
this month, the 13th Army Corps had a
skirmish with them again,- when the rebs
left over 100 killed on the field, besides
80 prisoners, while our loss was 40 killed
and .80 wounded, and about 150 missing,
snpposedto be taken prisoners. That day
news came for us to reinforce them, which-
we did, making the distance of 14 miles
in four hours, and resting but twice;
thatis what we call very good traveling.
I hardly think the time we made last
spring has been beat as yet, and we have
not forgot how it is done. We have been
on the road since the 17th of September
last, or it might be said, since last April,
with only one month to’ rest; but we do
not grumble. We are willing to do any-
thing in the way of soldiering to put this
wicked rebellion down, so that it may
never use again.
We begin to think our time is getting
short in the service, as we have but one
more year to serve. The boys feel aux-
ious to clear out the rebs in this depart-
ment before they go home, so that the
Corps de Afrique can keep the place
under subjection. The government is
raising quite a large force of colored
troops here. It is a very good plan, as
they are more suitable to this warm cli-
mate The weathcr now puts one in
mind of the pleasant month of May at
home, in Connecticut 1 should judge by
appearances that we are to stay here
ai‘c doing until some other time. We are
having drills of all kinds, from brigade
down to squad, as you might _cnll some
companies.
The boys that are sick at New Orleans
are getting better, and may be with us
ill a few days; at least we are in hopes
they will, for we should like them to share
the fatigue with us.
We are very glad to learn that Nor-
walk, and the towns in the vicinity", have
given a good Union majority at their
elections, and begin to think they are
not all copperheads.
We all send our kindest regards to
tb0se anxious ones at home. TIGER.
