"MOVE ON, MEN!” 
[“Much obliged to you! Move on, men!’’ was General 
Burneidb’s answer, on the reception of tile flag presented to 
him at an early period of the war.) 
Move on. men; and the men moved on 
To the good old song our father's sung. 
Move on, men; and the men moved on 
'Neath the good old flag our fathers flung; 
7 Mid the million hopes and the million fears, 
A nation’s prayers and a nation's cheers. 
Move on, men; nnd the men moved on, 
Moved on with their banners gay 
Through Columbia’s darkest day. 
Move on, men; and the men moved on, 
Step so firm and heart so brave, 
Moved on o'er the watery wave; 
Moved on ’mid the dismal mar 
Of the mighty winds, from shore to shore; 
Moved on, moved on. tempest tost, 
With the ruddor broke and anchors lost— 
Braved the tempest, stemmed the tide, 
For the good old ship, the nation's pride, 
In which our dithers fought and died, 
Where God's voice in thunder spoke, 
Whilst the waves tumultuous broke, 
Burnside moved to Roanoke, 
When an hundred years are o’er, 
tVheu other hearts sliall read the lore 
That's written on Columbia’s shore, 
When old Time's assuaging liand 
Hath wreathed it* ivy o’er the land, 
Then the poet's soul shall flow, 
Then the patriot’s heart shall glow, 
Then romance, with magic spell, 
To the listening world sliall tell 
How the winds nnd waves awoke, 
Mingling with the fiery smoke, 
Cannon's roar, and saber stroke, 
When Burnside moved to Roanoke.

“Such an ugly old ark as this baby-wagon is,” 
exclaimed my pretty Cousin Clara, as she arranged 
the pillows in the capacious willow wagon, prepar¬ 
ing to give Master Harry an airing— “I declare I 
am ashamed to go into the street with it. Where 
did you ever pick up such an outlandish affair?” 
“ Pick it up, indeed," said I, with an indignant 
tone. “ You will please to understand. Miss Clara 
Ames, that I paid the whole of ten dollars for that 
wagon, and consider it was cheap at that; for it has 
seen more service, and done more real good, than 
half a do*/,en of your dainty, velvet-lined cabs could 
endure.” 
“I believe it,” said Clara, laughing. “ Why its 
just the right size lor my Shetland pony to draw— 
wish I had him here now, I would harness him in 
and take the family out.” She dumped the baby 
down among the pillows, made a pretence of stand¬ 
ing on tip-toe and looking in “to see if he hail slruclc 
yet," and then started off on her excursion. 
While she is gone 1 will tell you the story of that 
willow wagon, that you may judge if it was not 
cheap at ten dollars. 
It was gelling near spring-time; the blue-birds 
had come, and here and there the grass was growing 
green. I watched it all with delight, and one of my 
first thoughts was, “now baby must have a carriage, 
and go out every day to get fresh color into his 
pale cheeks,” 
Almost the first sunshiny day, 1 mentioned the 
subject to my husband at the dinner table, and he 
proposed I should go that very afternoon and select 
one, saying he had noticed some very handsome 
ones at the furniture stores. 
Just as be was leaving the house he turned hack, 
saying, “By the way, Mary, one of my men told 
me the other day that his son had been making a 
willow wagon this winter, and was very anxious to 
sell it- It is that deaf and dumb boy of Neal’s. 
He is very ingenious, and with a little help from his 
father has made the wagon to amuse himself, and in 
the hope of earning a trifle. I am afraid it will be 
too clumsy to answer your purpose: but it will do 
no harm to call and look at it. Don’t feel at all 
obliged to buy it if you don’t like it; I can take it of 
him to send packages around in.” 
Now, from the very first thought of a carriage 
my mind had been made up as to just what kind of 
one it should be. A vision of my darling’s happy 
face looking out Ifom the silken curtains of a stylish 
little cab with its cushions of crimson velvet, was 
always the picture I saw: and that awkward willow 
wagon, with its clumsy proportions and probable 
stripes of red and green, thrust itself into my fancies 
in a most unwelcome manner. 
“There is no use in looking at it,” I said to 
myself, as I was dressing to go out; “of course I 
shall not buy such a thing.” Still I thought it 
hardly right not to comply with my husband’s 
wish, and so I found myself soon afterwards knock¬ 
ing at the door of Mr. Neal’s little brown house. 
Such a scene as there was when I entered! Six 
children, alt under ten years old, beside the deaf 
and dumb boy, who looked about fourteen. The 
noise and confusion seemed enough to drive any 
one distracted; and the pale, nervous mother, who 
stood at the ironing-table with her baby upon one 
arm while she moved the iron with the other, seemed 
ready to drop with exbaustiou. The eldest boy was 
washing the. dishes, and the mother told me that the 
children managed to amuse the baby very well most 
of the time, but now he had the measles and would 
stay with no one but her. 
I remembered my own petted baby, and the days 
of eickuess when no place but mother’s arms would 
satisfy the little sufferer. Did she not love her 
moaning baby as well as I my 11 one little chiclet 1 ” 
I believed she did. 
Meantime a very intelligible pantomime was 
going on between the deaf and dumb boy and his 
mother, by which he was soon made to understand 
that I was the wife of his father’s employer, and that 
I would like to see the wagon he had uutde. His 
eyes sparkled with pride and pleasure as he drew it 
in from another room, and began with the expres¬ 
sive language of signs to point out to me how 
strong it was, and how well made in every part. I 
could easily see that it was carefully made, and it 
was neatly finished, with nothing to offend the taste; 
but then it was so large, and so very, very plain. 
It was clearly fit for nothing but to send out parcels 
from the store as my husband had suggested; so I 
said as much to Mrs. Neal, and she in turn trans¬ 
lated it to her son. His eye fell, and he seemed dis¬ 
appointed; but he only shook his head, patted the 
wagon in a consoling a way, as one would a child, 
and drew it away from the room. 
It was but a short walk to the well-stocked furni- 
me, I could not feel satisfied with a plain one. 
On my way home it occurred to me to call and 
see what had become of a poor woman who used to 
come to me for plain sewing, but who had not made 
her appearance for some time. This took me into a. 
miserable part of the city, where it seemed as il the 
sweet breath of spring-time could never find its way. 
Up three flights of stairs, in a low, dingy room, 1 
found the object of my search busily sowing, while 
a little girl was trying to quiet two puny looking 
babies. I had often beard her speak of her twin 
babies, but had never seen them before; and iheir 
pale faces, sunken eyes, and little bony hands, 
made my hoait ache ,as I read in them the story 
of neglect, hunger, and sickness. Sickness! Who 
wouldn't be sick, to spend day and night in that 
hot, close air. I felt suffocating in it, and looked in 
a restless way toward the window. The poor 
woman saw my glance and said, 
“ I know the air isn’t good for one, ma’am; but it 
costs so much for coals, that when I gel the room 
warm in the morning I can’t afford to lose any heat 
by airing it. It’s good that summer is coming, when 
the Loud will warm the world ‘for us.” She said 
this with a sad smile, and glanced at her babies as 
she spoke. 
“Are they sick?” I asked. 
“Only the cough, ma'am," said she, “but It's 
wearing them away, poor things. The doctor says 
fresh air would cure them if 1 kept them out two or 
three hours every day, but I must sew, ma’am, or 
we must all starve together, and little Mary here is 
not strong enough to carry them. If I could borrow 
a wagon she could draw them nicely, but nobody 
around here has one.” 
“ Mrs. Merrill had one made for her twins,” 
said I; “ you sew for her, don't you?” 
“ Its too nice to lend, ma’am,” was the only reply. 
“Too nice to lend!”—yes, and so would my ele¬ 
gant ten-dollar cab be. Only careful hands must 
touch it; only well-dressed babies could sit on its 
velvet cushions. My decision was made, and I 
resolved to commit myself at once, with those poor 
little babies before me, so as to leave no room for 
relenting. 
“I shall have a wagon by to-morrow,” said I, 
-that will carry a dozen snch little creatures as 
these; and if Mart will come for it she shall have 
it every forenoon as long as you want it;” and with¬ 
out. waiting to hear the last of the grateful mother’s 
thanks, L hurried away. 
“Now.” thought t, “for Jimmy's go-cart. He 
will be very glad to get five dollars for it; so there 
will be something saved at any rate.” But a moment 
more bettered that thought, by suggesting that 1 
should give Jimmy the ten dollars which I had 
intended paying for the cab, and thus bestow a 
charity upon a needy and deserving family, encour¬ 
age the industry of the hoy, and at the same time 
supply my own wants. 
It was beautiful lo see the delight of the dumb 
boy when made to understand that I had really 
purchased his wagon, and that I gave him so much 
for it He took the money, turned it over in a curi¬ 
ous way, then he would clap his hands and laugh 
outright. Then ho began a series of rapid gestures 
by which he intended to tell me that it would buy 
clothes, and food, and coal; and then in a most 
amusing way he put his hands in his pockets, and 
strutted about the room, meaning, his mother 
explained, that ho was a great man, and had earned 
money. He insisted upon drawing the wagon home 
for me himself, and when he left it he patted it in 
the same way he had done before. By this time I 
was fully satisfied with my purchase, and could bear 
very well my husband's good-mil tired ridicule of my 
“ ambulance wagon,” as he styled it That was the 
very name for it; and all the spring and summer it 
went on its daily mission of mercy. There was 
room enough iu its capacious lap for both the sick 
babies, even after the fresh air had covered their 
little skeletons with solid muscle; and as for my 
own little boy, he never missed the more dainty 
furnishings of the carriage he came so near owning. 
It is a capital wagon. It answers to go to market 
with; no jolting over the rough pavements have 
shaken the firmness of screw or nail; it will bear 
handling by childish hands: it is not too nice to 
lend; and bids fair to descend as an heir-loom to 
another generation.

THE CLOVER BLOSSOM. 
In the beautiful June morniug, wbon the golden 
light rested on the hill-tops and in the valleys, and 
the air was full of the pleasant sounds of country 
life, a little red clover-blossom, in its humble home 
by the dusty roadside, lifted its head, still wet with 
the refreshing dew-drops, to see what all the world 
was doing. In the meadows and on the hill-tops 
the trees were standing in their wonderful beauty— 
the graceful elm, the stroDg oak, the drooping wil¬ 
low, the slender birch, and the dark, solemn pine. 
Along the road came the market wagons, carrying 
an almost endless variety of beautiful fragrant 
roses, and many other flowers of early summer; for 
there was to be a grand floral festival in the neigh¬ 
boring city, and large prizes were to be awarded to 
those who brought flowers of the rarest beauty. 
The clover-blossom grew very sad as she thought 
ol the use and beauty of everything around her. 
“Of what use am I, a homely little thing living 
here in the dust? If I were handsome, so that peo¬ 
ple would look at me and admire me, I should be 
happy; but now I might as well be out of the world 
as in it.” 
The day wore away; but before the sun had gone 
down, a large family carriage came slowly down 
the hill. At the foot of the bill, an unfastening of 
some portion of the harness caused the coachman 
to dismount. A little girl, with a pale, thin face, 
was lying in the arms of her nurse. She raised her 
head and looked from the carriage window. “See, 
Nanny, the little red rose! Can you give it to me?” 
The pale hands grasped eagerly the little clover- 
and cold that summer day so long ago. No one 
among his reckless companions knew what power, 
gentler yet stronger than all the powers in the 
world, drew one of their number from the snares of 
the destroyer, and made him strong to fight the 
good fight and win the victory. 
The old farm house is seldom silent now, for 
children’s voices again ring within its walls, and in 
the summer they all come from their city homes, 
till old Jacob and Martha, surrounded by so much 
young life, forget that they are very old, and their 
journey’s end is very near. The little red clover 
blossom, whose home was the dusty roadside, and 
who, in her humility, thought she might as well be 
out of the world as in it, now rests in the old family 
Bible, pressed against the leaf that bears the record 
of Frank’s^death.— N. Y. Christian Inquirer.

edition of the first of bis writings issued in book form. The 
Publisher's Preface is as follows —“A small edition of this 
work, published in 1857. having been for some time entirely 
out of print, a constant and increasing demand for it has led 
to its republication. The very great popularity of the author's 
subsequent Works, which have, in the aggregate, nearly reached 
the sale of one hundred thousand volumes, would, of itself, 
give unusual interest to this volume; but it is With special reli¬ 
ance on its own merits that it is again offered to the public.’’

ries with reference to Engines of small capacity, that would 
noswerfor propelling n email amount of machinery with 3 little 
expense, ami with this in view we have just inveuted, and have

A Primary Geography on the basis of the Object Method of 
Instruction Illustrated with Numerous Engravings and 
Pictorial Maps. By Fokdyck A. Ai.LF.N- Principal of the 
Chester County Normal School, West Chester, Pa. Quarto, 
56 pp. Printed in Oil Colors. Philadelphia: J. B. Lippin- 
cott & Co. 
As an educational work, we "consider this initial volume of 
“ Lippincotts Geographical Series ” the perfect embodiment of 
a happy thought. The design is novel but natural, and both 
author and publishers have well executed their portions of 
the labor Mr. Allen’s object has evidently been to feed the 
mind rather than fill it—Gut true method of instruction—and 
no one can peruse this volume without readily acknowledging 
his complete success. Rev. E. A. Beaman, author of ‘ 9 he 
True principals of Education ” speaking of this work, says— 
“I like this geography, because it gives the child something 
to mentally eat and drink — something adapted to its present 
wants and capacity, and for the sake of its present nourish¬ 
ment und healthy action. I like it because it makes no mis¬ 
erable and unnatural attempt to adapt to childhood what does 
not belong to childhood. I like it because it leads the child 
into that warm sunlight of opening thought which is most (except Monroe confity. where it goes ft**.) and 6 >i cents to a»f 
essential to healthy mental growth. I like it because it regards ot ) ier state or Territory, if paid quarterly in advance a 1 •“ e
