WELL PUT.-An illustrated paper printed
at Leipsic, Germany, compares the North and
South in this forcible way: "What the South
lacks-Money, men and the favor of God
What the South has-Niggers, yellow fever
and the alliance of Satan. What the North
has-Money, men, righteous cause and the
sympathy Of humanity. What the North
lacks-Piratos and thieves"

Negroes In Uniform:


Col. Brodhead, of the First Michigan
Cavalry, seems to have imbibed the idea
that this is white mans war. So we
infer from an order which he issued the
other day, in the words following:
The commanding officer is surprised and
mortified to learn that negroes the servants of
officers, have dared to parade this camp in the
uniform of soldiers.
The honorable distinction which the soldiers
uniform confers, and of which every true soldier
is justly proud, cannot, and in this command
shall not, be so dishonored and degraded.
The negro hereafter found wearing the uni.
form of the soldiers of this regiment will be
stripped at once, and, if within the encamp.
ment, summarily elected. a 4a Hv
Agood idea. There is growing popular
impression that the abolition attempt to
magnify and exalt negroes at the cost of the
peace and prosperity and happiness OF thirty
odd millions of white people, has been
tolerated long enough. Col. Brodhead acts
upon this impression when be draws the line
beyond which, within the province of bis
command, negroes must not step. 81 ali

We have the pleasure of announcing that
Capt. N. J. T. DANA, Of this city received
his commission from the Governor on the
I'd, as Colonel of the First Regiment of
Minnesota Volunteers, and left this city
the next morning to join his regiment on
the Potomac. Those who are acquainted
with the record of his military lie, will
acknowledge his eminent fitness for the
position assigned him by the Governor, but
for the benefit of those who have not that
knowledge, we shall briefly recapituIate its
principal events.
Colonel DANA was born and raised from
infancy in the army and among military
men. He entered the Military Academy at
West Point in l838-graduated in 1872
and received a diploma recommending him
for promotion in Artillery, Ordnance, To.
biographical Engineers, Infantry or Dra-
goons." Electing the infantry, he joined
his regiment in Louisiana in September
1912, and served with it there for three
years prior to the Mexican War. 1t may
not be improper to state here, that, as we
are informed, he is intimately acquainted
with the Gulf Coast from the mouth of the
Sabine to Pensacola Harbor and from
Arkansas Bay to Vera Cruz.
He landed at Corpus Christi in 1845,
with the second detachment sent to sup
port General TAYLOR. He was one of
the garrison that defended Fort Brown
during its eight days bombardment. He
was in WORRIES division during the three
days. assault on Monterey. He was in
TwIGGs division during the eighteen days.
siege of Vera Cruz. He was in HARNEY's
brigade in its desperate assault on the prin-
pal height at Cerro Gordo, where be was
brevetted for gallant conduct" and was so
seriously wounded in the hip that be did
not get on bis feet again till after the close
of the war. He continued in active front.
Ter service till March, 1855, when be re-
signed, having served four years as Cadet,
FIVE years as Lieutenant, and eight years
as a Captain-in all seventeen years.
When the seventy>ive thousand volun-
teers for three months service were called
for by the President, he was rendered the
command of the First Regiment from this
State by the Governor, but at that time he
could not leave his important private bust
ness to enter the service for so brief PEI
Rod, but subsequent events having shown
that the war was to be Of longer continu>
ance than at first anticipated, he made i'm
mediate arrangements for closing up his af-
fairs, which be accomplished at no incon
siderable sacrifice, and rendered his military
services to the country.

Col. WilIich's German Regiment.

From the Indianapolis journal of Monday.
DEPARTURE OF I'RooPs.-On Saturday
evening, about 6 o'clock, COLONEL Wiich's
German Regiment, handsomely uniformed
and equipped, marched down from their
camp to the Madison depot, and embarked
for that place, where we presume they will
remain only so long as there may be app
prehensions of trouble in the portion of
Kentucky adjoining. As few knew of
their time of departure there were rot so
many out to see them off as usually witness
the departure of our Regiments, but those
who did see them saw the finest military
display that has yet been exhibited in this
city. The regiment was nearly full, over
900 in 1.-THE rest will join in Madison, we
were told-and as the long line marched up
Illinois and down Washington street, at
quick step, and with the regular swaying
motion of old soldiers, it could be seen at
glance that they had been learning their
business to some purpose. There were no
struggling lines, no broken sections, but all
was solid, compact, and as accurate as dis
cipline could make them. Colonel King, of
the Regular Army, remarked that if he had
not known who they were he would have
taken them for regiment of regulars, and
he added that such body of men were
worth three undisciplined regiments for SER
vice. 1t is beyond all QUESTION the finest
regiment that has left our State, and we
doubt if any State has sent out body of vol
unteers their equals in all respects. A large
portion of them are old soldiers, and all are
picked men, held to the most rigid disci-
pline, drilled with unremitting attention, and
taught by one of the most thorough trained
soldiers in the Union. AS they passed the
BBtes House, the ladies on the balcony
waved their handkerchiefs, and the men in
response waved their hats, every company,
as they arrived opposite the balcony, lifting
their hats and waving them until they
passed. But there was no shouting, very
little talking, no fuss or parade. Col.
Which marched on foot, as did all the field
officers. On Delaware street, they were
halted in three divisions, to facilitate their
getting on the cars, and the divisions were
marched up, put aboard, and got off more
rapidly and quietly than we ever saw it done
before. There was no disorder nor running
bach. and forth. Every man knew his place,
and when the order came, they moved, and
not before. We predict that this regiment
will make its mark if it has halt chance.
The arms are Enfield rifles for over 400, and
Springfield rifles Tor the rest, most splen.

traitors newspapers are disloyal, ne sup
presses their circulation. Thus the whole
nation is made to feel that there is : ruler
at the Capitol, who i fully equal to the
situation, (" and to the world be has demon
strated this great fact: that our government,
supposed to be the weakest among
nations, is in truth the strongest, because
subject, in this period OF danger, to the
will Of one great, directing mind; and
that furthermore, the President of free
people may exercise all powers necessary to
the preservation of their nationality, which
Kings may venture upon only when hedged
around by mercenary armies. His solution
of one question, upon the issue of which the
fate of the Union depends, gives assurance
Of his qualifications for every exigency.
The party which gave him power clamor-
ed for war of emancipation as the only
path to victory. 1t was the clamor of UNI
reasoning passionate echo of Coward to
Richmond" which had induced his generals
to commit a terrible blunder. The question
was one of craftsmanship and like States
man did he disprove of it.
And this brings before us the "other man"
of "great expectations" Pathfinder,
who never found a path in his life, and nc
yer attempted to find new path without
losing his way, but, following beaten trails,
won undeserved reputation; who, magni-
fed Of late by the heated atmosphere Of
party politics, seemed to loom up on the
horizon of this war to the stature of great
intellectual and military giant, but on
nearer approach dwindles down to man of
very small proportions.
This weak man, who is strong only in
will, arrogance, ambition, conceit and vani-
ty, has, however, served good purpose.
He has destroyed his own reputation as a
great military commander,for which neither
talents nor education fitted him in the
slightest degree and with him goes down
the whole tribe of political Generals and the
fanatical party which has been working to
convert this war for the defence of the
Union into crusade for the utter destruc-
ton of the institutions of the South.
No mind can divine events of the future
but what has already transpired in the pro-
gress of this civil war, seems to lead to 9
conclusion in which all old political organ
izations will be broken up, all hostility to
the government crushed, all differences suf-
fciently reconciled, and the Union preserved
under the guidance and direction of ABRA-
HAM LINCOLN, who will, in that event
thenceforth rank among the greatest bene.
factors of mankind. Nl
