And call them now to witness
To the love / bear to thee.

A VETERAN OF THE RRvoLUTIoN.-We had
the pleasure of receiving call on Teusday
from Mr.. PETER BAsHAw, of this county, one
of the few honeredsurvivors of our Revolution.
The SHOWS of ninety two winters have wifi
tened his venerable head, and his once tall and
stheletic form, enfeebled by age, now beIds
under the weight of years. Yet he is by no
means, even at bis advanced age, in any de-
gree helpless. He rides to the city on horse
back, and when at HON walks about his place
and attends to his home duties, daily. His
reccollection of the stirring events of those
times that tried mems souls, is singulariy vivid
and accurate We listened 10 the relation OF
important historical events, falling from the
lips of one who, then in the full flush of boy
hood, participated in them with all that en-
thusiasm, so characteristic of the American
youth of those days, with new and increased
interest. Our venerable friend served under
General MORGAN, and participated actively in
the battle of the Cowpens. Subsequently he
enlisted under Capt. JENNINGS, his first term
Of service having expired, and assisted, as he
expressed it, in ''trolling" CORVALLIS up little
York river to Yorktown, where he participa-
ted in his capture. Having assisted in con-
veying the prisoners taken on that occasion to
the station designated for them near Winches-
ter, he retired from the service; and in the
year 1910 removed with family consisting of
wife and ten children, to this county, where
he has ever since resided. Out of thirteen
children, ten were raised to manhood and wo-
manhood. His pension as q private in Infantry
is dated 4th of March, 1881. He was born in
1898, and was about Is years Of age when
he retired from the service.
But few of the gallant comrades of our
friend are left with him to tell the story of
their tolls and privations, and every year the
number WAKES smaller. But their valuable
services will be remembered after them, and
when the senseless sod shall hide them, one
after another, from the mortal sight of their
friends, their children's children will perpetuate
their herOsm in the written and legendary
history of their country, and often by the
winter ire-side, fight their battles DER and DER
again.

Importanca of Railrnada.

The labors of the advocates of railroads
have been materially lessened by the valuable
assistance rendered in the matter of abundant
crops This Columbia Mirror throws off the
following practical argument, which is worth
more than two hours hard speaking after the
old fashion,. With these sort of digs under
the ribs, anti-railroad men will soon become
exceedingly scarce: 81,

per bushel--and it has been worth il and will vet
in s probability be worth It before the next crop
and you would have the sum of two hundred thou
sand dollars for the single article Of wheat. This
article would bring cash. Now take one half of
the proceeds, one hundred thousand dollars, aud
you have means enough from one years growth of
wheat alone 20 construct some teu miles OF railway.
