As might be supposed, eome A the applications for exemption are founded on very trivial, and even ludicrous grounds, and cause many an inward chuckle on the part of the examiners, The reports lately in circulation rela- ‘ive to the inaccessibility of the enrolment to per- gous desiring to determine whetber or not they were properly enroled, have ennsed an official ore ler to be issued by Provost Marshal General Fry, ttaving that a)! required !nformation shall be given to applicants, Ho directs that inquiries on all or- dinary subjects connected with the enrolment, draft, exemptions linbility to draft, credite and accounts of men furnishe!, shall be addressed to the Provost Marshal of the Congresaionnl District in which the inquirer resides, In cases where the Morshal {« not able to decide questions, they must be addressed to the Provost Marshal General of the Btate, A considerable number of troopa have lately been forwarded from this city to the Army of the P ito- mux, On Wednesday 500 goliiers were sent from Hart's Inland to reinforce Gen, Gravt and a like number are expected to leave to-day for the same purpose, On Thursday morning a squad of fifty- nine colored troops arrived in the city on their way to the front, and were rent to Hart's Tasland t 46 at transportation, The Jatter place is used aa. tort of rendervous for the assembling of recruits «-d substitutes previous to their departure for the trmy, and numbers are constantly arriving from tho various counties in thia military district.

Armed with these instructiona, a@ soon aa we had finished our breakfast we atarted across the fields, snd after a pleasant Walk of twenty minutes we found ourselves in av old churchyard, amongst a cluater of the most picturesque ruins we had ever seen, With the exception of the tower, we had espied from the ina, and which doubt- less been the belfrey, the remains were not consid- erable, There wae the outer wall of the chancel, and the broken step that had led to the high altar, and there were sections of aisles, and part of a clolater, al! gracefully festooned with mosses and ivy; whilst mingled with the grase-grown graves of the prosaic dead, there were the massive tombs of the Dame Margerys and the Sir Hild obrands of more romantic perlods, All was ruin and decay, but such poetic ruin! uch picturesque decay ! And just beyond the tall gray tower, there wax the loveliest, smniling little garden, and the pret- tiest cottage, that imagination ike aoe The day wre brizht, the grass so green, the flowers so gay, the air so balmy with their sweet perfumes, the birds sang #0 cheerily in the apple and cherry troes, that all nature seemed rejoicing. “Woll,"* said my friend, as she seated herself on the fragment of a pillar, and looked around her, * now that I see thin place, I understand what sort of people the Loveils were."* ** What sort of people were they ?"* said I. “Why, as I said before, interesting people, In the first place, they were both extremely hand- forme," ** But the locality had nothing to do with their goxl looks, I presume," said I, * Tam not sure of that," she answered ; * when thero Is the least foundation of taste or intellect to got out with, the beauty of external nature, and the picturesque accidents that harmonize with it, do, f am persuaded, by their gentle and elevating influence on the mind, make the handaome hand- somer, and the ugly less ugly. But it was not alone the good looks of the Lovells thas struck mo, but their air of refinement and breeding, and I should say high birth—though I know nothing about their extraction—combined with their undiaguised poverty and as evident content- ment, Now, I can understand such berks Snel here an appropriate home, and being satisfied wii their peaait guess of the world's goods ; because here the dreams of romance writers about Love in & Cottage might be somewhat realized ; poverty might Le graceful and poetical here ;.and then, you know, they have no remt to pey.”’ “Very true"? asid I; * but suppose they had sixteen daughters, like @ balf-pay offwcerI once met on board a stenm-packet 9" “That would spoil it certainly,” said Mrs, Markham; “but let us hope they have not.

Ordinary funerals with their unwieldy hearses sud feathers, aud the ab- surd looking mutes, and the “inky cloaks’? and weepers of bired mourners, always seem to me like a mockory of the dead; the sppeintments border so closely on the grotesque; Wey are go little in keeping with the true, the only view of death that cau reuder life endurable) There ie such @ tone of exagperated, forced, hasvy, over-acted gravity about the whole thing, that one had need to have a deep personal interest involved in the scene, to be able to shut one's eye to the burlerque side of it, But» military funeral, how differcnt! There you see death in tite and life in deat! There is hothing over-strained, nothing overdone, At once s.anple and silent, decent and decorous, consoling, yet sud. The chief mourners, at beat, are gener- ally true mourners, for they have lost a brother with whem “they sat but yesterday at meat;"* and whilst they are comparing memories, recalling how merry they had nmny a day been together, and the sulemn tones of that sublime music float upon the air, we can imagine the freed and satis- tied soul watted on those harmonious brestbings to ‘16 Heavenly home; and our hearts are melted, our imaginations exalted, our faith invigorated, and we come away the bester for what we have seen.
