LOVE AND MORAL COURAGE.<br />
11 Bat why don't yoa like him, Agatha?'*<br />
(l Oh—because I"<br />
" "What philosopher ever solved the mys<br />
tery of thia true woman's reason 1 ''Because"<br />
means ten thoasaud things that pretty, dim<br />
pled lips don't choose to put into shape—it<br />
means that they know why perfectly well<br />
themselves, bat won't tell; <strong>and</strong> not all the<br />
coaxing of cariosity, can get it ortt of them !<br />
And so pretty Agatha Milne played with<br />
the knot of scarlet roses, whose velvet peta's<br />
glowed in her belt-ribbon, <strong>and</strong> lifted up her<br />
Boft hazel-brown eyes with a provokingly ab<br />
sent, unconscious look.<br />
"But, Agatha!'* pursued Ruth Ellenwood,<br />
stopping for a moment in her occupation of<br />
braiding <strong>and</strong> arranging Agatha's beautiful<br />
waveB of auborngold hatr, "I'm sure a plea<br />
sant partner at balls <strong>and</strong> parties, <strong>and</strong>—oh,<br />
Agatha! don't jerk your head so, or I shall<br />
have to braid all these str<strong>and</strong>s ovur again !''<br />
"Nonsense! that's no test at alU" said<br />
Agatha, pettishly, the peach-like orimson<br />
mounting to her cheek ; " what can you tell<br />
about s young man, from a mere hall-room<br />
acquaintance ? Auy one can be agreeable<br />
enough to hold your boquet, or bring you an<br />
Ice-cream; that is if he knows enough not to<br />
tread on your toes in the polka, not to step<br />
on your flounces in a promenade !"<br />
" I know it," said Ruth, " but the question<br />
la I Don't he remind you of Don Quixote in<br />
hleyomhfal days?"<br />
" Probably Bhe has money to leave one of<br />
these days," said Agatha, the diBtruBtful ele<br />
ment uppermost in her mind for the mo<br />
ment.<br />
" Not a solitary red cent, I know, for I have<br />
inquired. She is "in reduced circumstances'*<br />
—that's the term, I believe—but Stanton is<br />
very fond of her, nevertheless. She has come<br />
up to town from the back woods for a few<br />
days, <strong>and</strong>—"<br />
He paused abruptly as the very pair in<br />
question approached, still absorbed in picture<br />
gazing. " My dear Charles,'' said the old lady<br />
at length,*• you oannot imagine what a treat<br />
this is to me—I have not seen each pictures<br />
as these since I was a child. How thoughtful<br />
of yoa to bring me here I"<br />
"I knew you would enjoy it, aunt 1"<br />
"And you are not ashamed of your old-<br />
fashioned relative among all those gay young<br />
people V*<br />
" On the contrary, dear aunt, I am as proud<br />
as a monarch while you are leaning on my<br />
arm l"<br />
Agatha heured it all, <strong>and</strong> Bhe also heard<br />
him answer, in reply to the gay challenge of<br />
some companion :<br />
" Thank you, bat don't reckon upon me as<br />
one of your party this evening at the opera.<br />
I am going with my aunt, who is passionately<br />
fond of muaio, so you must excuse me for<br />
once." I<br />
"I told you so I" said Filz Aubyn, in a sot- |<br />

As down the red <strong>Oct</strong>ober hills,<br />
The swollen torrents leap their rills<br />
Past broken flumes <strong>and</strong> waiting mills,<br />
With rushing noise.<br />
So h<strong>and</strong> to h<strong>and</strong>, with parting thrilla,<br />
Sweep forth our boys.<br />
Not fierce to hate but strong to dare,<br />
They hunt the traitor in his lair;—<br />

What songs of cheer to heaven resound,<br />
What prayers that peace may yet abound,<br />
Each heart employs;<br />
While tears fall on the hallowed ground<br />
Where sleep our boys.<br />

you ever see saoh a fellow as Stanton !» | ^ tho desk of ° ook kee P er in «« wholesale<br />
" Never," was Agatha's reply, but it was : clothing establishment of Shean & Presoott,<br />
so emphaticly spoken that Fitz Aubyn start- j *n tfie busy town of A-<br />
And that night while the courted beauty ;<br />
" But the question is," interrupted the im<br />
perious yonng beauty, "how do I know that<br />
Air. Fitz Aubyn, silver tongued as he is to me,<br />
with his homage <strong>and</strong> his compliments, don't<br />
go home <strong>and</strong> swear at his mother <strong>and</strong> sisters?<br />
How do I know that Mr. Jennings, who has<br />
the whole liotionary at hiB fingerendB, doesn't<br />
cheat his l<strong>and</strong>lady ?" What means have I of<br />
ascertaining that young St. Simons, who is<br />
> such a graceful waltzer <strong>and</strong> agreeable small-<br />
talker, doeB not finish his evenings in a drink<br />
ing saloon? Oh, Ruth, we have te3ts for as<br />
certaining spurious dollars <strong>and</strong> counterfeit<br />
bank notes, but how on earth are we to know<br />
a counterfeit husb<strong>and</strong>, until he is tied to our<br />
unlucky apron-string for life ?"<br />
She laughed as she sprang up to look for<br />
her bonnet, but the long eyelashes drooped<br />
with a snspiciouB moisture.<br />
"Well," said Ruth, caressingly patting Aga<br />
tha's tiny baud, " 1 am very, very thankful<br />
that Providence didn't make me a beauty <strong>and</strong><br />
an heiress, Bince it has such a tendency to<br />
awake suspicion <strong>and</strong> distrust. But Agatha,<br />
in Bpite of all yoa have said, I feel convinced<br />
that Charles Stanton is a noble fellow."<br />
" Very likely," said Agatha, lightly ; " but<br />
here comes Fitz Aubyn, with those splendid<br />
hoises of his, so give me my shawl."<br />
"And whither are your footsteps to be di-<br />
leoted to day ?"<br />
"Oh, we intend to go to that private view<br />
of pictures in street, which I told yon<br />
of."<br />
And Agatba swept out of the room with the<br />
port of a queen.<br />
The white luBtre of moonlight, pouring<br />
down through the circular dome of frosted<br />
glass, gave a life-like glow to the superb<br />
paintings whose gilded frames literally cov<br />
ered the walls of the spacious apartments.—<br />
Here <strong>and</strong> there, gionps of absorbed dilettanti<br />
moved, with subdued whispers <strong>and</strong> br<strong>and</strong>ish<br />
ed opera glasses, as if it were a forbidden<br />
thing to Bpeak above one's breath in the pre<br />
sence of these fair l<strong>and</strong>scapes <strong>and</strong> scenes from<br />
history's page.<br />
Directly in front of one of the finest works<br />
of art stood a pair who had unconsciously<br />
been the object of many a curious glance <strong>and</strong><br />
whispered observation of the other sight<br />
seers—a tall, stylish-looking young man,<br />
with an old lady leaning on his arm, whose<br />
antique dress of snuff-colored bombazine <strong>and</strong><br />
oddly-shaped beaver bonnet occasioned a great<br />
many covert smiles <strong>and</strong> half concealed titters<br />
from those present.<br />
" Oh, by the way, Miss Milne," said Fitz<br />
Aubyn, as in their progress round the rooms<br />
this couple gradually came in view, "you<br />
have not seen the greatest curiosity of all<br />
yet." a Managers <strong>and</strong> one Treas<br />

Kitty And " Please-'<br />
Kitty had of late got a bad tone to hervoice<br />
It was a tone of comm<strong>and</strong>, vary unbecoming a<br />
little girl. Instead of sayiDg, "Will you he<br />
kind enough to do this, or that ?" or, " Please<br />
do this ?" or, " Will you ?" in a gentle tone,<br />
she said, " Do thiB," or " Do that," like a lit<br />
tle tyrant. Her mother, as you may well<br />
think, was very soTry, <strong>and</strong> talked with her<br />
little girl about this new fault.<br />
One day her shoe came off while she waB<br />
playing. When it was near dinner-time she<br />
called Bridget to put it on.<br />
" Bridget," she said, " I want my shoe on.<br />
Pat it on quick, for my pa will come soon.''<br />
Bridget was doing something in the oloset,<br />
<strong>and</strong> did not immediately oome out.<br />
Bridget," she called again, "don't you<br />
hear me ? Come <strong>and</strong> put my shoe on."<br />
Her mother was in the next room, <strong>and</strong><br />
over-hearing her little daughter, said:<br />
Say * please/ Kitty, <strong>and</strong> Bridget shall pnt<br />
your shoe on."<br />
Kitty pouted hot did not Bpeak. She took<br />
her shoe, sat down on floor, <strong>and</strong> tried to pat<br />
it on herself, which was alt very well, had she<br />
not done it angrily, for children ought at way 3<br />
to help themselves. Kitty tugged <strong>and</strong> tug<br />
ged at her shoe; bnt her little fat foot having<br />
grown fatter since the Bhoe was bought, it fit<br />
ted in hard; in fact, Kitty could not get the<br />
shoe on.<br />
Soon she heard her papa's step in the entry<br />
<strong>and</strong> began to ory.<br />
" Bridget wilt help yon, Kittv." Baid her<br />
mother, looking into the chamber; " ask her,<br />
my child."<br />
Bat Kitty looked "No I shan't" thoughshe<br />
did not say so in so many words. The din<br />
ner-bell rang.<br />
" Yoa can Btay here, Kitty, until you can<br />
ask Bridget properly to put on your shoe;"<br />
<strong>and</strong> her mother went down-stairs.<br />
Kitty turned very red, <strong>and</strong> hurst out into a<br />
hard, angry fit of crying. Then she got up,<br />
ran into a little- dresssing- room <strong>and</strong> shut the<br />
door. 0 naughty, foolish Kitty 1 How much<br />
trouble she was making herself, <strong>and</strong> how<br />
grieved her parents were to Bee no* dear little<br />
Kitty in her own high-chair at the table, <strong>and</strong><br />
for such a reason too ; that was the worst of<br />
it.<br />
By <strong>and</strong> by her papa came up-stairs, <strong>and</strong> not<br />
finding her in her mother's room, went to the<br />
little-room.<br />
" Where is my Kitty!" he asked, in a sad,<br />
sorry tone.<br />
The little girl jumped np from the corner,<br />
<strong>and</strong> going towards him, said:—<br />
" 0 papa, 'please* wouldn't come out my<br />
throat; it staid there; it 'moat choked me I<br />
but may be it will now."<br />
She took her father's b<strong>and</strong>, <strong>and</strong> pioking up<br />

INDIAN SUMMER.<br />
A SCRAP -FROH MY JOURNAL—BY S. W. B.<br />
" There st.-inds the seer <strong>and</strong> withered briar<br />
Counting the red beads on its atom,<br />
For snow will quooch its leaves of tiro<br />
As doath will blanch cheeks rod like thorn.'*<br />
" No bud to bloom—no beak to sing—<br />
No flowor to greet the eager oye—<br />
No oriole with sunny wing—<br />
No songs botweon us <strong>and</strong> tho sky."<br />
I am sitting here ou the withered grass on<br />
the hillside where I have sat many times be<br />
fore, gazing on a scene that met my view<br />
many years ago—often when spring had oloth-<br />
ed the earth in vernal beauty; <strong>and</strong> again<br />
when the mellow radiance of the full moon<br />
was gleaming on the proud brow of mid-sum<br />
mer; bat now I am surrounded by all of au<br />
tumn's glory. The sun, sinking slowly be<br />
hind the red, <strong>and</strong> green, aud russet-robed trees<br />
frames in this western heaven a gorgeous pic<br />
ture—floored as it is with graggy olouds of<br />
brilliant hues, some red, some purple—all lit<br />
aglow with the golden tinge of sunlight mak<br />
ing purer by contrast the etherial block of<br />
blue that gleams from its rocky eetting like<br />
an orient's dream of paradise. And as I oast<br />
my eyes downward to the silvery willows by<br />
the spring, I behold golden motes dancing in<br />
the brilliant light, seemingly too happy to be<br />
still—while the dreamy hum of all the iuseot<br />
world mingles with the gentle murmur of the<br />
rill gurgling at the base of the hill.<br />
Sammer has departed leaving with ns only<br />
the memory of its tinted flowers, <strong>and</strong> golden<br />
radiance—only the memory of its joys <strong>and</strong><br />
sorrows; hopes <strong>and</strong> fears. And how greatly<br />
the last predominated only those know who<br />
have eagerly, tearfully watched for the com<br />
ing of a loved one from the far off battle-field,<br />
or for news that the '* ratling shell <strong>and</strong> bomb,"<br />
the din <strong>and</strong> crash, <strong>and</strong> slaughter of impend<br />
ing conflict has passed harmlessly by the one<br />
dearest to them- As we st<strong>and</strong> again iu the<br />
dreamy haze of Autumn gazing at the waning<br />
sunbeams wistfully, not knowing whether we<br />
shall ever again watch the spreading of her<br />
crimson robe around the beauteous form of<br />
mother earth—we pray sincerely that the<br />
smoke of battle fields may not veil our beau-<br />
tifnl l<strong>and</strong> when next creation as hers in this<br />
dreamy season ; but that peace <strong>and</strong> harmony<br />
may reign supreme!<br />
What a change bias been made in the syl<br />
vian retreats of the grove, Jn a few short<br />
weeks ; now I sit down on the withered grass<br />
<strong>and</strong> twine the faded flowers into sober looking<br />
garl<strong>and</strong>s, then casting my eyes upward at<br />
the varigated boughs, some swaying leafless<br />
in the whispering breeze—I think it all cor<br />
responds with that inner feeling of the soul—<br />
the crumbling away of the statuary of love,<br />
baauty, aud hope; the subtle web of world-<br />
liuess dimming the freshness of youth. The<br />
sweet images of childhood gleam no more iu<br />
the halls of the soul, for—<br />
" Something beautiful ia vanished,<br />
And wo foel for it in vain,<br />
For wo know that something sweet,<br />
Followed ug with flying feet<br />
And will never como again."<br />
Indian Summer I there is poetry in the<br />
name, as in the atmosphere, which.brings to ns<br />
pictures of the time when dusky warriors trod<br />
these primitive forests at will, <strong>and</strong> the smoke'<br />
of whose oamp-fires girdled the earth with aB<br />
bine a veil of mists as now. Bnt it is not now<br />
the smoke from their smouldering fires that<br />
frames the earth in suoh a dreamy haze—un<br />
less it is from fires lit on the great hunting<br />
gronnd of the Indian's mystio spirit world I<br />
Pare pictures are framed by imagination<br />
aud hung on the walls of our soul as we walk<br />
beneath the ioflnence of the brown-eyed,<br />
mist-veile"d deity of Autumn; <strong>and</strong> we almost<br />
weep we know not why as we hear the sad<br />
interlude breathed on her lyre—the low re<br />
quiem chanted by winds, <strong>and</strong> waves over the<br />
burial of all that is bright <strong>and</strong> beautiful—we<br />
weep because we know—<br />
" Tbo life blood of tho year is ebbing slowly,<br />
Staining witb crimson drops tho fallen leaves;<br />
He who was onco so proud, now lies tbero lowly,<br />
While Autumn garners up her golden sheaves/<br />

The Breckinridgers claim that their<br />
State ticket is elected by from one to<br />
three thous<strong>and</strong> majority. Our most re<br />
liable advices up to last evening do not<br />
indicate this as correct by any means.<br />
All we can now say is that the result is<br />

TEE FALSE CEY OP PEACE.<br />
According to the Breckinridgers before<br />
the election, all that was necessary to end<br />
the war, was to vote their ticket, <strong>and</strong> it<br />
Would end in tixty days. But pray how<br />
are they to end it?<br />
We anppoe* by shaking h<strong>and</strong>s with<br />
Jefferson Davis, calling him much abased<br />
<strong>and</strong> oppressed brother, <strong>and</strong> inviting him<br />
to rule over us, as the correspondent en<br />
dorsed by the Intelligencer, did. The<br />
way to make peace—permanent, enduring<br />
peace is to drive the traitors like Davis,<br />
out of the country or hang them, disperse<br />
their followers <strong>and</strong> compel obedience to<br />
the constitution <strong>and</strong> laws.<br />
This course to bring about peace is not<br />
in keeping with the followers of Breok-<br />
inridge, <strong>and</strong> the defenders of the course<br />
of that imbecile or traitor James Buchan<br />
an, in allowing treason <strong>and</strong> traitors to rob<br />
our mints, seize upon forts, <strong>and</strong> dragging<br />
States out of the Union at their will <strong>and</strong><br />
pleasure. To have the Union divided <strong>and</strong><br />
treason <strong>and</strong> secession defended <strong>and</strong> justi<br />
fied. There is where they will give us<br />
peace. Peace with them is but another<br />
name for treason <strong>and</strong> treachery to the gov<br />
ernment. Under the shallow cry of aboli-<br />
ionism <strong>and</strong> negro equality they are uniting<br />
the ignorant <strong>and</strong> treacherous against the<br />
government, <strong>and</strong> at the right time they<br />
will develope the Hughes doctrine of recog<br />
nizing the Southern Confederacy, <strong>and</strong><br />
switching Pennsylvania into the bosom of<br />
rebeldom. Mark our prediction. There<br />
is where they will give you peace. Not<br />
by hanging traitors, for having compelled<br />
you to send forth your sons <strong>and</strong> brothers to<br />
slaughter <strong>and</strong> death for Union <strong>and</strong> liberty.<br />

GEO WING BOLD.<br />
The doughty Knight of tho Intelligen<br />
cer has grown exceedingly valiant since<br />
the election, <strong>and</strong> in his paper of yester<br />
day gives vent to his feelings in language<br />
more emphatic than elegant. Relying<br />
upon the strength'<strong>and</strong> ability, the prowess<br />
<strong>and</strong> patriotism of the Breckinridgers who<br />
^ave Buchanan's c<strong>and</strong>idate for Congress<br />
343 majority in the City, he breathes<br />
forth fire <strong>and</strong> flame against tho " villain-<br />
ions sheets <strong>and</strong> the vile crew" who dare<br />
doubt the patriotism, honesty <strong>and</strong> loyalty<br />
of George S<strong>and</strong>erson, James Buchanan,<br />
or Juhn C. Breckinridge. Doubtless the<br />
old man felt good after relieving his liver<br />
of so much bile, <strong>and</strong> presided with bis<br />
usual equanimity of temper <strong>and</strong> disposi<br />
tion at the trial of the loafers brought be<br />
fore him this morning. He is an amiable<br />
man <strong>and</strong> the world knows it. A patriotic<br />
man <strong>and</strong> Hen Schaum <strong>and</strong> Company<br />
know it. A brave man <strong>and</strong> all the<br />
" Black Republicans" <strong>and</strong> " pestilent<br />
abolitionists" know it; but still in all<br />
kindness <strong>and</strong> charity we will tell bim<br />
that whenever through the columns of bis<br />
paper, he denounces the administration,<br />
falsifies its record <strong>and</strong> upholds <strong>and</strong> apoli-<br />
gizes for men hostile to the government<br />
<strong>and</strong> false to their duty as loyal citizens,<br />
we will not only denounce the Treason<br />
but expose the Traitor.<br />

B£F The Intelligencer oi yesterday has<br />
a fling at the non-resistant voters of our<br />
county, who on Tuesday last did their<br />
whole dity by voting to sustain the gov<br />
ernment. They " always vole but never<br />
fight 0 ' says our very spunky neighbor.<br />
Before the election the Duke street con<br />
cern <strong>and</strong> hangers on were very busy with<br />
the non-resistants trying to convince them<br />
they ought to vote <strong>and</strong> vote against the<br />
war <strong>and</strong> for peace; that there never would<br />
be peace unless they voted the Breckin<br />
ridge ticket. But as they did not suc<br />
ceed in convincing them that it was<br />
right to sustain men who when they were<br />
in power could not preserve the Union,<br />
they turn about <strong>and</strong> taunt them about<br />
their religious convictions. If they do<br />
not fight we can tell the writer of the edi<br />
torial in tho Intelligencer <strong>and</strong> the editor<br />
who endorses it, it is not for the same<br />
reason that they refuse to serve their<br />
country. They love the Union while the<br />
aforesaid Breckinridgers hate it, <strong>and</strong> stig<br />
matize those who are fightiug for it, <strong>and</strong><br />
defending it as Abolitionists. If they do<br />
not fight, it is not because they are cow<br />
ards <strong>and</strong> sympathizers with traitors, but<br />
simply because they are honestly <strong>and</strong> re<br />
ligiously opposed to the taking of human<br />
life, as their fathers were before them.<br />
Can the Intelligencr clique say as much ?<br />
A dispatch from a correspondent with the<br />
Army of the Potomao states that tho doable<br />
reconnoisanco made on Thursday <strong>and</strong> oonolu-<br />
ded yesterday, was a complete sucoesa. The<br />
force under Gen. Humphreys, which crossed<br />
at Shepherdstoirn, met the enemy's advance<br />
beyond Kearnyaville, whom they repulsed af<br />
ter a spirited skirmish, in which we had one<br />
killed <strong>and</strong> two wounded,t<strong>and</strong> the rebels two<br />
killed <strong>and</strong> several wounded. The foroe then<br />
pushed on to Leetown, where it encamped for<br />
the night, <strong>and</strong> started forward in the morn<br />
ing, but returned by orders from headquar<br />
ters. Gen. Hnncock, who comm<strong>and</strong>ed the<br />
other expedition, alao returned yesterday<br />
morning, having captured 1,600 bushels of<br />
wheat in the possession of Union men, <strong>and</strong><br />
ascertained more fully the position of the en<br />
emy. The rebels were discovered to be in<br />
force between Bunker Hill <strong>and</strong> Winchester,<br />
their main body on a line parallel with Bun<br />
ker Hill <strong>and</strong> Berryville, <strong>and</strong> their right flank<br />
on the Shen<strong>and</strong>oah. On Friday our pickets<br />
advanced three miles from Cbnrlestown, on<br />
the Horry ville road, <strong>and</strong> subsequently Captain<br />
Heuo, with a small cavalry force, made a re-<br />
connoissauce to within five miles of Bunker<br />
Hill. There are indications that a great bat<br />
tle is imminent between the two gr<strong>and</strong> armies<br />
now so near each other.<br />
There are rumors that an engagement took<br />
place at Black water river, beyond Suffolk,<br />
on Tuesday a week between our troops <strong>and</strong><br />
the rebels. A lieutenant <strong>and</strong> three men of<br />
tho Eleventh Pennsylvania Cavalry were kill<br />
ed. No further particulars have been received.<br />
By an official order just issued Major Gen.<br />
Grant is^ssigned to the comm<strong>and</strong> of the l>e-<br />
p irtment of the , Tennessee, which includes<br />
Cairo, Fort Henry <strong>and</strong> Fort Doneison, North,<br />
ern Mississippi, <strong>and</strong> the portion of Kentucky<br />
<strong>and</strong> Tennessee west of the Tennessee river.<br />
Official dispatohes from Nashville, reoeived<br />
at. Louisville on Thursday, atnte that on the<br />
lllh a large force of tho rebels were near that<br />
city, <strong>and</strong> sent a flag of truce dem<strong>and</strong>ing the<br />
surrender of the town. The federal force be<br />
ing sufficient for the defense, Gen. Negley de<br />
clined to surrender.<br />
On Friday a week last a gang of about one<br />
hundred guerrillas entered Hawesville, Ind.,<br />
<strong>and</strong> for a time held possession of the town,<br />
creating considerable alarm. They Btole a<br />
number of horses <strong>and</strong> considerable provisions,<br />
until driven across the river by the Cannel-<br />
ton Home Guards.<br />
The Washington Star of Friday afternoon<br />
states that the rebel General Stuart, with a<br />
force of between 2,500 <strong>and</strong> 3,000 cavalry,<br />
reached Leesburg on Sunday last <strong>and</strong> halted<br />
there until near noon of Monday. In the<br />
meantime a considerable foroe of rebel infan<br />
try <strong>and</strong> artillery approached within sup<br />
portable distance of Stuart, in hope that an<br />
attack wonld be made on Stuart of our army,<br />
not being aware that he was supported.—<br />
Stuart, however, took good care to move to<br />
Winchester before a considerable force from<br />
tho vicinity could get up to him.<br />
The rebel force comm<strong>and</strong>ed by Colonels<br />
Anderson, Johnson <strong>and</strong> Martin, <strong>and</strong> which<br />
robbed the steamer Hazel Dell on Wednesday,<br />
is supposed to have numbered 2,000. Groce<br />
ries, clothing <strong>and</strong> powder were taken to the<br />
value of three thous<strong>and</strong> dollars, <strong>and</strong> they<br />
threaten to burn all boats falling into their<br />
h<strong>and</strong>s after the first of November.<br />
The Admiral <strong>and</strong> Philadelphia, two trans<br />
ports, were burned at Columbus on Wendes-<br />
day, supposed to have boen the work of an in<br />
cendiary. The Admiral, while burning, float<br />
ed against the Philadelphia, from which a<br />
thous<strong>and</strong> kegs of powder were taken before<br />
she was destroyed. Major Dodge was slightly<br />
wounded by a fragment of a shell. The IOSB<br />
is estimated at seventy-five thous<strong>and</strong> dollars.<br />
All the old rebel earthworks on the Poto<br />
mac have been destroyed ty our gun-boats.—<br />
While engaged in destroying the fortifications<br />
at Cockpit point, the rebels, with four field<br />
pieces, made their appearance, but a few<br />
shells, however, caused them to refrain from<br />
uny hostile movements.<br />
Gov. Curtin has written a letter dem<strong>and</strong>ing<br />
an investigation into the conduct of certain U.<br />
S. officers. Hesays that he has been inform<br />
ed that the General in comm<strong>and</strong> at Ilugers-<br />
town knew that the rebels had crossed to the<br />
borders on Friday morning.<br />
All the Uabel infantry <strong>and</strong> artillery have<br />
left Western Virginia, after having Eecured<br />
large quantities of salt from the wells in the<br />
valley. It is conjectured that they have gone<br />
to East Tennessee to re-enforce Bragg. There<br />
are no rebels now in the Kanawha Valley, ex<br />

Our Democratic legislators of last<br />
Winter, Messrs Peters <strong>and</strong> Worley. have<br />
been mast effectually laid up in picket by<br />
the voters of <strong>Lancaster</strong> county. One ses<br />
sion of these brilliant luminaries was all<br />
that they could st<strong>and</strong>, <strong>and</strong> they have been<br />
" squelched" completely. Tho " Man-<br />
heiui" debating society will again have<br />
the benefit of Mr. Worley's excrutiatingly<br />
severe logic <strong>and</strong> bewildering flights of<br />
rhetoric, much to the relief of the fortu<br />
nate wights who will occupy seats, in the<br />
" Assembly" this winter. Mr. Peters<br />
will have more leisure to see that the<br />
Normal School turns out first class teach<br />
ers than he had last winter, while his<br />
seat in the Legislature will be profitably<br />
occupied by that veteran Democrat Judge<br />
Champneys.<br />
ELECTIOH OF TJ. S SEKATOB.<br />
The Hon. SOLOMON FOOT has been for<br />
the third time elected to the UnitcdS&<br />
Senate from Vermont. He has been in'<br />
public life for nearly 30 years. From<br />
1833 to 1842 he was most of the time in<br />
the Legislature from the town of Rutl<strong>and</strong>,<br />
<strong>and</strong> was for three years Speaker of the<br />
Houso. In 1842, he was elected a mem<br />
ber of the National House of Represen<br />
tatives, where he served two terms, <strong>and</strong>,<br />
declining a third election, resumed his<br />
professional practice in Rutl<strong>and</strong> for some<br />
four or five years. At the expiration of<br />
that time he took his seat, March 4,1S51,<br />
in the United States Senate, where his<br />
career for two terms as Senator, <strong>and</strong> as<br />
presiding officer for a considerable portion<br />
of the time, is well known to the country.<br />
FBOM THE AEMY OF THE POTOMAC.<br />
On Saturday Gen. Stahl, with a detachment<br />
of cavalry, mot a large force of Itebel cavalry<br />
<strong>and</strong> one battery of artillery near Thorough<br />
fare Gap, <strong>and</strong> attacked them, capturing 80<br />
prisoners <strong>and</strong> one caisson filled with ammuni<br />
tion. The enemy was routed, <strong>and</strong> Gen. Stab]<br />
followed in hot pursuit. As our troops, under<br />
~,en. Humphreys, were returning from the<br />
onnoiBancc of Thursday, the Rebels follow-<br />
d with cavalry <strong>and</strong> artillery to within a short<br />
distance of Saepherdstown, opening with the<br />
latter whenever they could get within range.<br />
Our loss was one man killed <strong>and</strong> six wounded<br />
The troops safely recrossed at Shepherdstown<br />
ford, bringing a number of prisoners. The<br />
Rebel wounded, numbering 100, left at<br />
Charlcstown, were brought within our lines<br />
were they will be paroled. The Rebels had<br />
between forty <strong>and</strong> fifty killed <strong>and</strong> wounded on<br />
Thursday night, in disputing the advanco of<br />
Gen. Humphreys's troops. A dispatch from<br />
Headquarters dated Saturday evening says<br />
that one hundred <strong>and</strong> fifty of the cavalry, in<br />
eluding several officers, engaged in the recent<br />
raid into Pennsylvania, have been aaptured<br />
on this Bide of the river. They nro stragglers<br />
from the main body.<br />
THE DRAFT.<br />
Had the advice of some of the most<br />
loyal <strong>and</strong> earnest in putting down this<br />
robellion of the slaveholders, been taken,<br />
<strong>and</strong> 50,000 loyal colored troops been rais<br />
ed, as might have readily been done, this<br />
draft would have been avoided. But<br />
false democracy <strong>and</strong> treason disguised<br />
prevented it, <strong>and</strong> brought this on us.<br />
When will the people learn to disregard<br />
the tricks of demagogues <strong>and</strong> traitors 7<br />
t&~ The War Department at Wash<br />
ington has determined to allow Drafted<br />
men twenty days in which to procure<br />
substitutes.<br />
In this connection we would caution<br />
drafted men not to be imposed upon by<br />
persons who visit them in the country,<br />
offering to go as substitutes. We have<br />
heard of such, who are going from house<br />
to house, offering to go for all they meet,<br />
but want some money down. Of course<br />
these are swindlers <strong>and</strong> will never show<br />

FROM THE SOUTH WEST.<br />
There are countless rumors from the South-<br />
West concerning war matters. As, for in.<br />
stance: Bragg on Tuesday, with 40,000 men,<br />
•was at Camp Orchard, intending to camp a<br />
few miles below, lie is rapidly retreating<br />
toward Mount Vernon. Kirby Smith was<br />
going out of Kentuckey on the road to Man<br />
chester, Clay County; thence by the road<br />
whereon Bragg ia retreating, toward Cumber<br />
l<strong>and</strong> Gap. Ia Mississippi County, Mo., the<br />
Rebels are very active, <strong>and</strong> the Secesh in the<br />
surrounding neighborhoods aro flocking into<br />
Rebel camp, twenty miles from New-Madrid,<br />
in large numberB. The Rebel force in that<br />
vicinity is from 1,000 to 1,600. On Thursday<br />
the steamer Emile was taken possession of at<br />
Portl<strong>and</strong> by 200 guerrillas. They passed<br />
Linn, Osage County, on the following morning<br />
on their way north. Gen. Price is said to be<br />
gathering a large number of troops at Holly<br />
Springe, with the viow of attacking some<br />
point on the Mobilo <strong>and</strong> Ohio Railroad.—-<br />
There is a rumor at Cairo that an attack has<br />
been made by the Rebele on the Union troops<br />
at Isl<strong>and</strong> No. 10. N"o boat has arrived at Cairo<br />
from Memphis in three days, <strong>and</strong> trouble is<br />
feared on the river.<br />
From EiiBt Arkansas, intelligeance is re<br />
oeived that the Rebel force, about 7,000, has<br />
been concentrated under McBride, at Poca<br />
hontas. Gen. Carr, in comm<strong>and</strong> at Helena,<br />
reports Holmes <strong>and</strong> Hindman with a con<br />
siderable force on the west Bide of the river,<br />
threatening to attack him, their object being<br />
to do so before he could be re-enforced.<br />
Tho Rebel rough-rider, John Morgan, matU<br />
a dash into Lexington, Ky., on Saturday<br />
morning, but did not Btay. Our men fought<br />
awhile, but he was too strong for them ; we had<br />
six killed, <strong>and</strong> 125 were taken prisoners, but<br />
immediately paroled. On Sunday, when<br />
between Vet sailles <strong>and</strong> Frankfort, Morgan<br />
was met by 2,500 of Gen. Dumant's eavalry,<br />
who, after a short fight, routed <strong>and</strong> dispersed<br />
the Rebeli. Ltxiagten is BOW In powMikn<br />

It will be rsoolleoted that after the rebel<br />
attack <strong>and</strong> defeat at Corinth, Miss., they re<br />
treated to Hatchls river ou Saturday, the 4th<br />
last, where the; strongly posted themselves<br />
on the opposit* side, beside planting a battery<br />
of artillery, <strong>and</strong> detailing a considerable force<br />
across the river in front of the bridge which<br />
crosBed it. Two divisions of national troops,<br />
under comm<strong>and</strong> of Gens. Huribut <strong>and</strong> Veatch,<br />
had marched to the assistance of Roseorans at<br />
Corinth, with the added design of cutting off<br />
the rebel retreat, <strong>and</strong> came upon the enemy<br />
in foroe after a march of twenty-six miles,<br />
<strong>and</strong> after some heavy skirmishing, <strong>and</strong> bi<br />
vouacked in line of battle in front of the col<br />
umns of Price <strong>and</strong> Van Dora. Tho Tribune<br />
correspondent desoribes what followed on Sun<br />
day:<br />
" The oountry in the vicinity of the river<br />
is very broken—short, sleep hills, <strong>and</strong> the<br />
valleys filled with a thick underbrush of tim<br />
ber. Our army was faced directly east on the<br />
line which divides the State of Mississippi,<br />
<strong>and</strong> approaching the Hatchie river, which at<br />
the point of crossing runs nearly from the<br />
south to the north.<br />
Early in the morning our army began to<br />
move, shelling the bights with the artillery,<br />
the 14th Illinois <strong>and</strong> 28th Indiana acting as<br />
skirmishers, <strong>and</strong>, together, driving the ene<br />
my's cavalry <strong>and</strong> skirmishers from every po<br />
sition.<br />
Soon after the march commenced, Major-<br />
General Ord arrived on the field <strong>and</strong> took the<br />
chief comm<strong>and</strong>, though he made no changes<br />
in the disposition of the troops or the plan: of<br />
the engagement.<br />
The first important contest was openedabout<br />
nine o'clock for the possession of the hill,<br />
whose slopes <strong>and</strong> the bottom beyond stretched<br />
three-quarters of a mile to the bridge acroas<br />
the river. The enemy had planted a battery<br />
of four 12-pound howitzers immediately in<br />
front of the bridge to protect the advance of<br />
their infantry, which had already been massed<br />
in the timber on both, aides of the wood. Du<br />
ring the fire of thiB artillery upon the hill, our<br />
line of battle was advancing up the opposite<br />
side, preceded by the artillery.<br />
Bolton's battery was quiokly planled in po<br />
sition on the hill, which was no sooner per<br />
ceived by the enemy than they started a col<br />
umn of infantry on their left, facing our right,<br />
to flank it, which movement was checked by<br />
throwing out Bumap's bafery to the right of<br />
Bolton's battery some distance, which opened<br />
upon the advancing column of rebel infantry a<br />
most destructive fire of grape <strong>and</strong> canuister,<br />
which, with the aid of some sharp practice of<br />
our in fan try, send the whole mass belter skelter<br />
back through the timber, across an open field<br />
<strong>and</strong> into the woods beyond, so far that they<br />
were never seen afterward. Immediately af<br />
ter, both batteries were brought to bear upon<br />
that of the rebels in front of the bridge, <strong>and</strong><br />
after a sharp contest, were enabled to silence<br />
it.<br />
The first line of battle had been formed by<br />
the Second Brigade, the First being held as<br />
a reserve." Gen. Veatch, led on his line in gal<br />
lant style. His right was speedily engaged<br />
by fresh troops which the enemy had thrown<br />
across the bridge <strong>and</strong> deployed to their left,<br />
but with little effect in stopping, the onward<br />
march of our troops. The left wing of our<br />
column, with Capt. Fox in its lead, were feel<br />
ing their way thiough a point of timber <strong>and</strong><br />
over a deep gully, <strong>and</strong> endeavoring to draw<br />
tho fire of the rebels posted 'o the right of<br />
their battery. This they did not succeed in<br />
doing until they reached an open space, when<br />
tho fife of the rebels told plainly where they<br />
were, <strong>and</strong> that in numbers not to be despised.<br />
The infantry engagement which followed was<br />
sharp, short <strong>and</strong> decisive.<br />
In twenty minutes from the time tho rebels<br />
opened their fire, four hundred of them threw<br />
down their arms <strong>and</strong> surrendered, while hun<br />
dreds of others escaped, some by throwing<br />
themselves into the river <strong>and</strong> reaching the<br />
opposite bank ; a few made good their retreat<br />
acrosB the bridge; others broke for the right<br />
<strong>and</strong> left, some throwing away their arms in<br />
their flight. The rebel battery was then drawn<br />
to our rear. During this march dowu the hill<br />
Col. Davis of the 40th Illinois was severely<br />
wounded, while gallantly leading his regiment,<br />
<strong>and</strong> the comm<strong>and</strong> devolved upon Lieut. Col.<br />
J. J. Jones. During this time the rebels open<br />
ed another battery on an eminence a quarter<br />
of a mile in rear of the bridge, <strong>and</strong> comm<strong>and</strong><br />
ing it, <strong>and</strong> were throwing a galling fire from<br />
it, as well as from their infantry, which lined<br />
every available point on that side of the river.<br />
At this time Gen. Huribut was just bring<br />
ing up ihe reserve brigade, or all of it but<br />
two companies, which proves the desparate<br />
character of the engagement. All of the ar<br />
tillery was also being hastened forward.<br />
"Pretty warm work," says Gen. Ord to Gen.<br />
Huribut. "Not very," was the cool reply.<br />
"That battery," pointing to the one across the<br />
bridge, " must be silenced," said the comman<br />
der. "It shall be in twenty minutes," was<br />
the reply. Some doubt being raised as to the<br />
proper point of placing a section of Bolton's<br />
battery, "Show me the place," Baid Senior<br />
Lieut. J. N. Moore, "<strong>and</strong> J will plant it there<br />
if it is in—." Such was the spirit <strong>and</strong> deter<br />
mination of the whule army.<br />
Gen. Ord had just ordered the 53d Indiana<br />
to cross the bridge, <strong>and</strong> they doing BO under a<br />
most terrible fire from the battery <strong>and</strong> from<br />
the infantry of the enemy, when GQW. Ord re<br />
ceived a shot in the leg, just above the ankle<br />
joint, the ball fortunately passing between the<br />
bones of the leg, but necessarily disablinghim<br />
from further immediate duty. This was not<br />
far from 10 o'clock. Gen. Ord had been very<br />
active <strong>and</strong> devoted in conducting the battle.<br />
So far everything had prospered, <strong>and</strong><br />
yet Vfee troops were entirely unacquainted<br />
with%aeir new comm<strong>and</strong>er. However bravo<br />
<strong>and</strong> skillful he might be, they did not know<br />
him. Huribut they did know <strong>and</strong> believed in<br />
him, it was sure. He had planned this engage<br />
ment, <strong>and</strong> undoubtedly the troops thought<br />
they could eiecute it better, <strong>and</strong> with more<br />
confidence, under the man they knew <strong>and</strong><br />
trusted than any other. It was natural.<br />
The 53d Indiana was struggling against a<br />
storm of lead <strong>and</strong> iron, which swept the en-<br />
rire length <strong>and</strong> breadth of the bridge. The<br />
25th Iudiana, tho 14th <strong>and</strong> 15Lb Illinois,<br />
sprang in to share the danger, <strong>and</strong> nil pushed<br />
through the storm, the Indiana troops crowd<br />
ing to the right along the narrow space be<br />
tween the road <strong>and</strong> the river, which made a<br />
short bend just above the bridge ; the Illinois<br />
troops deploying to tho left. Col. Morgan of<br />
the 25th Indiana, I believe, was the fh-Bt to<br />
io cross the bridge. The 12th Michigan, the<br />
08th Ohio, <strong>and</strong> the 46th Illinois immediately<br />
followed, <strong>and</strong> all the artillery was close io<br />
their rear, <strong>and</strong> opened fire as soon as it was<br />
fairly across, while Gen. Lanman's brigade<br />
WOB hurrying up the steps to join in the des<br />
perate affray that closed up the glory of the<br />
day. The most of these troops, deploying to<br />
the loft, drove the rebel infantry from every<br />
poBition they attempted to maintain, <strong>and</strong> Col.<br />
Hall <strong>and</strong> Lieut. Col. Rogers led their regi<br />
ments up the hill to flank tho rebel battery.<br />
Gen. Veatch here received a stroke on the<br />
head of bis scabbard from a passing round<br />
shot, which for a time completely paralyzed<br />
him. The rebel battery, perceiving the loss<br />
of its infantry support, <strong>and</strong> the imminent dan<br />
ger it was in from our advancing columns,<br />
was rapidly hauled off to another eminence,<br />
some distance to the northwest of itn old po<br />
sition, when the hill in front of the bridge was<br />
immediately occupied by the 1st Missouri <strong>and</strong><br />
Bitmap's Batteries. Bolton's Battery was<br />
planted on anoiher eminence to the left, <strong>and</strong><br />
the 15th Ohio still further to the left. Another<br />
rebel battery opening upon the 15th Ohio Bur-<br />
nap's was ordered to its assistance, <strong>and</strong> in<br />
these positions our artillery at 4 o'clock could<br />
find no reply to their discharges, nor discover<br />
the retreating forms of our enemy.<br />
The weary troops camped on the ground of<br />
their victory. The cavalry followed up the<br />
retreating rebels, who, in small squads, made<br />
their way for Cram's Mills, six miles up the<br />
river, where they effected a crossing, <strong>and</strong> kept<br />
up their retreat southward all night.<br />
In the morniDg our troops gathered up the<br />
fruits of their victory—four rifled howitzers,<br />
five caissons, 1000 st<strong>and</strong> of arms, 500 small<br />
arms, <strong>and</strong> a few horses <strong>and</strong> mules. Between<br />
400 <strong>and</strong> 500 prisoners-were sent to Bolivar,<br />
where they are yet retained. After scouring<br />
the country in every direction for two daya,<br />
the army returned to Boliver.<br />
It is needless for me to add one word of<br />
praise, either of particular officers or of the<br />
men. They all did their duty.<br />
The infantry <strong>and</strong> (he artillery were worked<br />
together in admirable harmony, <strong>and</strong> confident<br />
ly relied upon each other to perform their par<br />
ticular duties in the battle. And, in my judg<br />
ment, the best criterion of officers' abilities ia<br />
the opinion (f the men who fight under them;<br />

gte*.<br />
The Draft for Militiamen—The draft so<br />
long talked of, so long dreaded <strong>and</strong> so often<br />
postponed, commenced on, Thursday last, the<br />
16th Inst, Precisely at 10 o'clook the Com<br />
missioner, James L. Reynolds, Esq., <strong>and</strong> htB<br />
Assistants commenced operations in the Or<br />
phans' Court Room in the Court House. A<br />
large number of persons were in attendance,<br />
but the proceedings were conducted without<br />
interruption, <strong>and</strong> with great fairness. How<br />
ever unpopular the measure may be with Borne<br />
olasses of our citizens, all must admit the draft<br />
has been made with great impartiality. We<br />
doubt whether if in any other county in the<br />
State, it has been attended with the same<br />
degree of popularity as in <strong>Lancaster</strong> county.<br />
This, in a great measure, is owing to the per<br />
sons superintending it. "Men of character<br />
<strong>and</strong> position, the public was assured in the<br />
outset that the draft would be an honest <strong>and</strong><br />
an equitable one.<br />
A email per centage above the quota was<br />
drawn in each district, to meet any emergency<br />
which might occur. Those persons, therefore,<br />
who have been drawn after the quota is at<br />
tained, have a very fair chance of escaping<br />
altogether.<br />

Mr. W. C. Gner, of Kentucky, writes a let<br />
ter to MB friend, L. W. Hall, of Ravenna, Por<br />
tage county, Ohio, in which he relates the<br />
misfortunes <strong>and</strong> troubles he recently experi<br />
enced at the h<strong>and</strong>s of rebel cavalry led by<br />
John H. Morgan, a notorious guerilla <strong>and</strong><br />
thief, who holdB the rank of general in the<br />
rebel service :<br />
"I am now," says Grier, " a refugee. The<br />
torch of the incendiary rebel has been put to<br />
my mills, tny store, <strong>and</strong> my dwelling. All is<br />
consumed ; the labor of nearly twenty years<br />
is destroyed. On last Wednesday night, the<br />
rebel cavalry of John H. Morgan, to the num<br />
ber of 800, encamped within two miles of my<br />
place. Through the whole night they were<br />
momentarily expected to come upon us. Ev<br />
ery person left the house <strong>and</strong> hid in the woods.<br />
I could not do so ; my wife was near her con<br />
finement, <strong>and</strong> my anxiety for her kept me<br />
near my dwelling, but to allay her fears for<br />
my safety I had to appear to be absent. No<br />
thing occurred during the night As the<br />
morning dawned, I went further from my<br />
house, <strong>and</strong> took a view of the premises <strong>and</strong><br />
the roads leading to them. I could see no re<br />
bels, <strong>and</strong> I determined to seo my wife, let the<br />
consequences be what they might. As I was<br />
nearing my door, eight rebels suddenly ap<br />
peared before me, with their guns presented<br />
to my breast, <strong>and</strong> took me prisoner. Soon the<br />
whole rebel b<strong>and</strong> was upon me. Morgan<br />
cursed the men for taking me prisoner, say<br />
ing that he had ordered me to be shot down<br />
on sight. He then opened my store <strong>and</strong> told<br />
his men to rifle it of everything they desired<br />
<strong>and</strong> then set fire to it. I implored him not to<br />
do so, as it was so near my dwelling that it<br />
also would be consumed. I informed him of<br />
the condition of my wife—for myself I asked<br />
nothing, but I begged of him, in common hu<br />
manity, not to destroy my wife <strong>and</strong> little<br />
children. He answered, with a fiendish oath,<br />
that be intended to burn ovorything I had—<br />
be would put fire to my house <strong>and</strong> born my<br />
wife <strong>and</strong> children up in it—he would wipe out<br />
the whole Abolition concern. This threat was<br />
applauded by many of his men, who said they<br />
went in for killing men, women <strong>and</strong> children.<br />
I was then placed upon a horse, without a<br />
saddle, <strong>and</strong> conducted to the front of their col<br />
umn, <strong>and</strong> orders were given to shoot me down<br />
if fired upon by bushwackera, as they Btyled<br />
them. I assured them they would be fired<br />
upon if the people had any spirit, <strong>and</strong> I be<br />
lieved they had. When they saw the confla<br />
gration of their homes, they would waylay<br />
<strong>and</strong> fire upon them, even if their number was<br />
ten times greator. After firing my property,<br />
he (Morgan) rode past me <strong>and</strong> said, pointing<br />
to the flame, " You find your loyalty to your<br />
Abolition government pretty expensive, don't<br />
you V<br />
That he was not subsequently shot, although<br />
the rebels were a second time fired upon, was<br />
owing to the fact that the captain of the squad<br />
who had him in charge had not been sworn<br />
into the rebel service, <strong>and</strong> did not therefore<br />
hold himself responsible to Morgan. Shortly<br />
after this promise on the part of the captain,<br />
the friends of Grier commenced emptying the<br />
saddles of his captors. The firing finally be<br />
came so hot that the captain could no longer<br />
protect his prisoner, <strong>and</strong> so said. He con- I<br />
tinues—<br />
I soon took advantage of the excitement pre<br />
vailing, <strong>and</strong> jumped from my horse <strong>and</strong> fled<br />
to the woodB unobserved, <strong>and</strong> made my escape.<br />
I reached where had been my home at dark.—<br />
1 found my wife had been carried by eomc<br />
kind ladies to an unocupicd bouse, <strong>and</strong> a phy<br />
sician was with her, who eaid he would fctay<br />
with her. It was not more than twenty min<br />
utes till Morgan's guerillas were agnin upon<br />
mo. I escaped through the fields to the woods,<br />
making iny way to Portsmouth, 35 (riles, my<br />
nearest point of complete safet3', where I ar<br />
rived next morning, without food, sleep or rest.<br />
I immediately came to this city (Cincinnati),<br />
where there was owing me about $75, with<br />
which I will purchase a Ballard rifle, <strong>and</strong> re<br />
turn to tne vicinity of my family, hide in the<br />
woods <strong>and</strong> caves, <strong>and</strong> pick off every butternut<br />
I see, until I oan get my family away to some<br />
place of security, <strong>and</strong> then—<strong>and</strong> then I will<br />
not make peace with them.<br />
It is evident Morgan <strong>and</strong> bis followers have<br />
aroused u devil in Grier—one who will be am-<br />
ply avenged on the thievish crew before he is<br />
through with him. It seems Mr. Grier has<br />
been cured of his sympathy for slavery <strong>and</strong><br />
the blessings which follow it, <strong>and</strong> ia now for<br />
its annihilation in Kentucky <strong>and</strong> elsewhere.—<br />
He Bays:<br />
Why is all this p?rsecution of me ? U ia'<br />
becauso I condemned this wicked rebellion,<br />
urged a vigorous prosecution of this war, ami<br />
in my place in the Senwte of Kentuckey op<br />
posed the temporizing policy of my own parly.<br />
For this I am burned out <strong>and</strong> hunted out of<br />
Kentucky. I am now unequivocally for con<br />
fiscation 1 subjugation, extermination, <strong>and</strong> hell<br />
<strong>and</strong> damnation.<br />
That's the talk! We may rest assured that<br />
he will not temporize with traitors in arms, or<br />
make terms with murderers. He is not only<br />
for a vigorous prosecution of the war, but for<br />
" confiscation <strong>and</strong> subjugation." What have<br />
the " Peace Democracy"—the members of a<br />
party who would ratherhwe the Union broken<br />
than slavery " disturbed"—to say to a man<br />
who has experienced so much as Senator<br />
Grier of Kentuckey ? Perhaps a similar<br />
course of" sprouts" in their own persons<br />
would awaken them to conviction that, how<br />
ever much distance lends enchantment to the<br />
view, a near approach to slavery may not be<br />
so enchanting as even the unfortunate Grier<br />
<strong>and</strong> his sick wife have found it.<br />

<strong>and</strong> Capt. Jackpon, of his staff, Gen. Veatch<br />
aDd Capt. Fox of his Btaff; <strong>and</strong> Gen. Lauman<br />
<strong>and</strong> the comm<strong>and</strong>ing officers of the various<br />
regiments, have the unbounded confidence of<br />
the soldiers in their ability <strong>and</strong> discretion,<br />
there is no doubt. This division is willing to<br />
trust itself whereever Gen. Huribut tells it to<br />
go-<br />
The enemy, scattered <strong>and</strong> broken as ho has<br />
been in his attack upon Corinth, <strong>and</strong> in being<br />
attacked at Hatchie river,^ had undoubtedly<br />
made the best of his way to Holly Springs,<br />
where the rebel prisoners report Pillow in<br />
comm<strong>and</strong> of about 6000 men, most of whom<br />
are the lately exchanged prisoners<br />
A dispatch has been received at Washing<br />
ton from Comm<strong>and</strong>er Scott, of the United<br />
States gunboat Maratanza, off Cape Fear<br />
river, the 11th instant, which states that on<br />
that date the rebels opened on him with two<br />
Armstrong guns, from a battery -constructed<br />
on the beach the night previous. The second<br />
shell struck over the port-quarter of his ves<br />
sel, killing two men <strong>and</strong> wounding several<br />
others. The vessel- got under weigh, hut "a<br />
sheU pai«ed over her at the dlttanea of four<br />

THE LAST WORDS OF A DYING HES0-<br />
The following letter of Col. Brodhead, kil<br />
led in one of Pope's battles, to his wife, writ<br />
ten in hiB dying moments, has been published<br />
at the request of friends who believed that it<br />
belonged to the Nation, as well as to his fami<br />
ly. His touching pathos <strong>and</strong> high-toned pa<br />
triotism will awaken fresh regrets for the death<br />
of this noble soldier <strong>and</strong> (rue man:<br />
MY DEABEST WIFE—I write to you, mortally<br />
wounded, from the battle field. We are again<br />
defeated, <strong>and</strong> ere this reaches you, your chil<br />
dren will be fatherless.<br />
Before 1 die, let me implore that, in some<br />
way, it may be Btaled that Gen, - has been<br />
outwitted, <strong>and</strong> that is a traitor. Had<br />
they done their duty as I did mine, <strong>and</strong> had<br />
led as I did, the dear old flag had waved in<br />
triumph.<br />
I wrote to you yesterday morning. To-day<br />
is Sunday, <strong>and</strong> to-day I sink to the green<br />
couch of final rest.<br />
I have fought well, my darling, <strong>and</strong> I was<br />
shot in the endeavor to rally Dur broken bat<br />
talions. I could have escaped, but would not<br />
till all hope was gone, <strong>and</strong> was shot—about<br />
the only one of our forces left on the field. Our<br />
cause is just, <strong>and</strong> our Generals, not the ene<br />
my's have defeated us. In God's good time<br />
he will give us victory.<br />
And now good-bye wife <strong>and</strong> children. Bring<br />
them up, I know you will, in the fear of God<br />
<strong>and</strong> love for the Savior. But for you <strong>and</strong> the<br />
dear ones dependent I Bhould die happy. I<br />
know the blow will fall with crushing weight<br />
on you. TruBt in Him who gave manna in<br />
the wilderness.<br />
Dr. Nash is with me. It is now after mid<br />
night, <strong>and</strong> I have spent moBt of the night iii<br />
sending messages to you.<br />
Two bullets have gone through my chest,<br />
<strong>and</strong> directly through the lungs. I suffer but<br />
little now, but at first the pain was acute. I<br />
have won the soldier's name, <strong>and</strong> am ready to<br />
meet now, as I must, the soldier's fate. I<br />
hope that from Heaven I may see the glorious<br />
Old Flag wave again over the undivided Union<br />
I have loved so well.<br />
Farewell, wife <strong>and</strong> babe*, <strong>and</strong> friends. We<br />
shall m»«t again. Tour lorini;<br />

LOST LABOE—FALSE ECOHOMY.<br />
The coat of agricultural jrodneta is em<br />
braced in<br />
1st. The Cost of Preparing the Soil.<br />
2d. The cost of Seed. ~<br />
3d. The cost of Manure <strong>and</strong> its appli<br />
cation.<br />
4th. The cost of Cultivation of Crops.<br />
5th. The cost of Gathering Crops.<br />
The best farmer then, is he who can<br />
get the largest <strong>and</strong> best returns with the<br />
most economical expenditure for the above<br />
items.<br />
1ST. THE COST OF PREPARING THE soni.<br />
This does not refer to the securing the<br />
least outlay, but rather to the greatest out<br />
lay that can be made with an increased<br />
ratio of profit.<br />
With this fact before us, what farmer<br />
can afford to put out his early surplus<br />
earnings on bond <strong>and</strong> mortgage at seven<br />
per cent., if his farm has never been un<br />
der-drained or sub-soil plowed? Expe<br />
rience has fully proved that money may<br />
be judiciously applied to under-draining<br />
<strong>and</strong> sub-soil plowing, <strong>and</strong> that it will re<br />
pay itself in full with interest, from in<br />
creased income, in the first five years,<br />
leaving a continuous increase of income<br />
for the future, while the original invest<br />
ment being already returned, may be ap<br />
plied elsewhere.<br />
Shallow plowing, then, without under-<br />
draining <strong>and</strong> sub-soil plowing, is false<br />
economy. Since soils fully prepared, as<br />
above, never suffer from drouth, <strong>and</strong> pro<br />
duce larger results with the same amount<br />
of outlay for future culture it clearly<br />
proves that under-draining <strong>and</strong> sub-soil<br />
plowing are not lost labor.<br />
2D. THE COST OP SEED.<br />
Poor seed is dear at any price; good<br />
seed is always cheapest.<br />
In soils prepared as above suggested,<br />
seed germinates with greater certainty<br />
than in shallow plowed soils, <strong>and</strong> as mea<br />
dows so prepared never run out, no re-<br />
seeding will be called for. Taking care,<br />
therefore, to raise or buy good seed is not<br />
fake economy.<br />
When seed is required to be used<br />
broadcast, do not sow it by h<strong>and</strong>; Ca-<br />
hoon's <strong>and</strong> other broadcast seed sowers,<br />
will distribute it more evenly, in less<br />
time, <strong>and</strong> less seed need be used. As<br />
one man can sow as many acres with these<br />
machines, as ten men without them, in<br />
the same time, his labor is not lost. When<br />
seed is to be planted, or sowed in hills or<br />
drills, it may be done with greater regu<br />
larity by proper machines, thus lesseuinjj<br />
the amount of labor in their after culti<br />
vation as with straight rows, horse, in<br />
stead of h<strong>and</strong> tools, may be used, <strong>and</strong> one<br />
man do the work of ten with h<strong>and</strong> tools.<br />
Thus, the farmer who uses cheap seeds,<br />
or sows them by h<strong>and</strong> instead of by ma<br />
chine, will loose labor <strong>and</strong> practice false<br />
economy.<br />
3d. THE COST OF MA.VURE AND ITS AP<br />
PLICATION.<br />
If soils are inert <strong>and</strong> require lime or<br />
potash, it is false economy not to apply<br />
them, for other manures seldom contain<br />
them in so cheap a form as shell lime aud<br />
unleac-hed wood ashes, nor will other ma<br />
nures avail with full economy, if lime <strong>and</strong><br />
potash be wanting. Therefore not to use<br />
these is false economy, <strong>and</strong> as the texture<br />
<strong>and</strong> loosences of the soil will be improved<br />
by their use, they will prevent lost labor.<br />
The proper composting of barn-yard<br />
<strong>and</strong> other manures of the iarm, with a<br />
drainage-cistern at the end of the heap,<br />
provided with a pump to throw back the<br />
drainage <strong>and</strong> prevent fire fanging, is not<br />
lost labor.<br />
The adage should not be "With how<br />
little manure can I raise a crop ?" but ra<br />
ther "How much manure can be used<br />
with increased profit ?" As probably no<br />
farmer has ascertained how large a quan<br />
tity may be used with increased profit,<br />
aud every farmer knows that he cannot<br />
possibly create as much manure on his<br />
farm as he miyht use with increased pro<br />
fit ; he should buy freely of such fertili<br />
zers as he finds the most profitable. It is<br />
both/«&c economy <strong>and</strong> lust labor to grow<br />
crops without full application of fertili<br />
zing materials.<br />
It is false economy <strong>and</strong> lost labor to<br />
cart materials, of little worth as manure,<br />
<strong>and</strong> of great weight, even if at no original<br />
cost, for a distauce, which renders the<br />
cartage more than equal to the manorial<br />
valne. We have seen thous<strong>and</strong>s of loads<br />
of nearly valueless swamp muck, spent<br />
tan, saw dust, apple pomace, gas-house<br />
lime, <strong>and</strong> other things, improperly appli<br />
ed, <strong>and</strong> the cost of transportation was<br />
many times as great as would have pur<br />
chased more valuable fertilizers.<br />
1th. TIIE COST OP THE CULTIVATION - OF<br />
CROPS.<br />
This is the greatest with rusted tools,<br />
<strong>and</strong> particularly if of an inappropriate<br />
kind.<br />
Forks, spades, shovels, <strong>and</strong> hoes, are<br />
lighter, stronger <strong>and</strong> less liable to rust if<br />
made of steel than of iron ; but it is false<br />
economy to use even these in any case<br />
where the small horse tools may be ap<br />
plied, while the latter prevent lost labor.<br />
In cultivating row crops, the lifting sub<br />
soiler, carrot weeder, horse hoes, etc.<br />
save nine-tenths of the cost of cultivation<br />
as compared with h<strong>and</strong> tools, while the<br />
work may all be done in lime, <strong>and</strong> simply<br />
because less time is required to do it.<br />
5th. OATIIERI.NO CROPS.<br />
Any farmer having twenty acres in<br />
grass or grain, is guilty of false economy<br />
if lie uses a scythe or cradle, instead of<br />
reaper or mower.<br />
H<strong>and</strong> tools should not be used for dig<br />
ging potatoes; the horse potato digger<br />
prevents lost labor, even when used on a<br />
single acre.<br />
Row crops may be loosened, so that<br />
they may be readily picked up by h<strong>and</strong>,<br />
by running a large sized sub-soil lifter<br />
along side of them at full depth; beside<br />
leaving the soil in better tilth to improve<br />
by winter frosts; <strong>and</strong> the use of h<strong>and</strong><br />
tools in digging carrots, beets, parsnips,<br />
etc., is lost labor <strong>and</strong> fake economy.<br />
To continue the use of the old style<br />
sub-soil plow, in place of the lifting sub<br />
soil plow, in place of the lifting sub-soilcr,<br />
is false economy.<br />
Rusty tools of all kinds should be<br />
cleaned before being used, <strong>and</strong> a single<br />
experiment with a rusted plow, spade or<br />
fork, compared with bright ones, will<br />
fully illustrate the fact.<br />
Use such plows as by the Dinamometer<br />
have been proved ' to require less force<br />
than those you have, for to continue the<br />
use of any inferior implement, is lost labor<br />
Mid false economy.<br />
In the use of h<strong>and</strong> tools, endeavor to<br />
acquire proper tact (skill) in h<strong>and</strong>ling.<br />
Never cut wood with a dull axe. Kemem-<br />
ber, that the force with which an axe<br />
strikes, "is equal to its weight multiplied<br />
by its velocity," <strong>and</strong> great velocity can<br />
only obtained by a free woodman's swing,<br />
<strong>and</strong> not by inappropriate expenditure of<br />
strength, for it is lost labor. Remember,<br />
that while Richard Cour de Lion prided<br />
himself on cutting in two an inch bar of<br />
iron with his heavy sword, that Saladdin<br />
showed his superiority by throwing a<br />
silken scarf in the air aud severing it, while<br />
falling, by expertly drawing a light scym-<br />
tar across it. The cutting of the iron<br />
bar was lost labor, as no occasion could<br />
probably offer for any use which the ex-<br />
pertness of Saladdin would not be equal<br />
to, with a less expenditure of force <strong>and</strong><br />
greater quickness of repetition.<br />
Do not carry heavy loads in h<strong>and</strong> carts<br />
<strong>and</strong> wheel barrows for long distances, nor<br />
light loads in wagons <strong>and</strong> carts for short<br />
distances; it is lost lalor<strong>and</strong> wast of time.<br />
The use of badly fitting collars <strong>and</strong><br />
harness is fake ecouomy.— Working far<br />
