of the bone and sincw of the Pinery
left Grand Rapids for the seat of war,

brave boys left, under the command OF
Capt. Samuel Stevens, with a like de-
termination, Mr.. s., aided by his Lieu
tenants, has labored long and assidu-
onsly to accomplish his object, and he
has succeeded, though not to the ex-
tent desired. The company LIFT us
numbering sixty names, with more to
be added before reaching camp. -Four
followed them on the following day.
a vast corcoursc OF our citizens as
sembled to give them God-speed in
their holy mission, and speak perhaps
4 last farewell to sixty Of as brave men
as ever faced a battery. Nearly doz-
en- teams were engaged to take them to
New Lisbon, and as they crossed the
river, with colors flying and drums
beating, cheer after cheer went up from
lips of parents, sisters, brothers and
lovers, whose eyes were bedewed with
the tear Of affection, but whose hearts
throbbed with patriotic devotion to
their country as of primary Importance,
and said s''tis we'll" AS the wheels
rolled away, another shout went up,
and thus, with the ferycnt "God speed
Of patriotic citizens, departed our brave
ssbovs" to spill their blood for the home

''Grand Rapids is beautiful place
now, since the buildings on Main street

The prospect of the surrounding coun-

rocks, and the rapids in the Wlscon
sin River, the serpentine winding Of
the River itself, the pleasant green of
the Islands, establish Grand Rapids
one Of the pleasantest towns in the

to retreat in admirable disorder. Our General with
most prudent foresight, refused TO let pursue the
retreating rebels for fear that ice might possibly
capture their whole .t0yee which we would have
done without doubt. must remark here that we
