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 />

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 />

BY ONE OF THEM.<br />

A quiet, uneventful life was mine, until I<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 />

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 EXAMINEE AND HEEALD, <strong>and</strong> have<br />

had the sole control <strong>and</strong> management<br />

STATE TICKET.<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 />

yet in doubt.<br />

The Ohio <strong>and</strong> Indiana elections have<br />

gone Democratic while Iowa has gone<br />

largely Republican.<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 />

LAID IIP.<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 />

their faces again, after they get the<br />

money.<br />

dence of what he can do in that line we<br />

subjoin a few ohoice specimens from his<br />

paper of yesterday -.—<br />

THE GENERALS KILLED AT PERBYVILLE,<br />

Brig Gen. Wm. B. Ferril, reported<br />

In 1853 he was breveted as second<br />

lieutenant in the 3d artillery. Two years<br />

afterward he aoted as Assistant Professor<br />

of Mathematics at the Military Academy<br />

at West Point. In 1856 he was promot­<br />

ed to a first lieutenancy in the Fourth<br />

Artillery. He was sent West with his<br />

battery, <strong>and</strong> fought during the cam­<br />

paign in Tennessee.<br />

Col. <strong>and</strong> acting brigadier Wm. H. Ly­<br />

tic, also killed at Perryville, was a native<br />

of Ohio. He served as a lieutenant in the<br />

Mexican war: was elected Colonel of the<br />

10th Ohio Regiment at the breaking out<br />

of this war, <strong>and</strong> served under Gen. Mc-<br />

Clellan in Western Virginia. He fought<br />

gallantly at Rich Mountain, <strong>and</strong> was<br />

wounded in the affair at Summerville.<br />

He was ordered to Kentucky in Novem­<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 />

<strong>and</strong> that Gen. Huribut <strong>and</strong> Major Campbell.<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 />
