For the Register.
Rev. Daniel Waldo.

Clarksburg, during the past few days,
has been honored by the presence Of this
distinguished and veteran servant of God.
He is in the ninety-fourth year of his age,
and in the sixty seventh year of his min
istry, He graduated at Yale College, in
1878, and in the following year entered
upon the work of the christian ministry in
connection of the Congregational Church
He preached thirty years in Connecticut,
his native State, ten years in Rhode stand
and the remainder in the State Of New
York
His patriotism and bravery were early
developed. At the age of sixteen he en-
listed in the army, and took up arms in
the defence of Liberty and his country
Nor did he willingly lay them down.
When he was surrounded by the invading
foe, and pressed on every side, though but
a youth, he refused to surrender twas
not until the baycnet was pressed hard
against his breast and a gun withndeadly
aim was flashed at him that he dropped
his arms and gave himself. up prisoner
of war. He was captured by the Tories
at Horse Neck, and carried to New York
and there imprisoned but at the end of
g
change of prisoners. But this slight de.
feat, nor yet the walls of the prison could
"hate the swelling tide Of the patriotism
and love Of liberty that filled hislheart.-
But Providence reserved for him higher
destiny. Instead Of lighting as soldier
in the ranks of the armies of nations, he
was appointed leader in the armies of
Israel, in which he has done noble service
nearly three. quarters Of a ce ntury.s- e,i

By.the>way, DR.. Bland, besides being
a most excellent physician, is one Of the
best surgeons in Virginia. We heard
some time ago. an incident in his practice
which is characteristic Of the man. He
was called upon to vista child that had
been attackee with Group. When he ar
rived at the bedside Of the little sufferer,
he found the child to all appearances
dead, and the attendants about to prepare
the body for interment. Upon hasty
examination, the doctor concluded that
the child was suffocating by the swelling
of its throat, and his cool presence OF mind
and ready-wit, at once suggested rene
dy. He called for quill and after cut
ting of the ends so as to form tube, and
making an orifce with his lancet, he in
serted it in the ohild's wind pipe, to the
great CONSERVATION of the weeping moth
er. The air whisted through the quill to
the child's lungs. and it Immediately began
to revive. After short time, the doctor
left his patient breathing comparatively
quiet through the gull. In short time,
the throat of the child was cured, the
quill removed. the hole in which it as
was inserted healed up. and it's life saved.
The child was afterwards as well as ever,
with the exception Of having weak voice.
