Daring Exploit.


Among the many instances where the bra
very of our officers and men have shown
conspicuous, the one we are about to relate
is almost unequaled:
Capt. Spencer, aid to Gen. Wool, receiv-
ed information from two ladies who went
from Norfolk to Fortress Monroe with flag
Of truce, that near midnight 6-oared boat
was to leave Norfolk for Richmond with
money for the payment Of the rebel soldiers.
He requested permission of Major General
Wool to attempt their capture, and was told
not to place too much confidence in the in
formation received. Nevertheless permiss-
ion was given, and selecting two good oars
men on whom he could rely, with their oars
mufied, he started at dark, and awaited the
coming of the enemy's boat. He had pre-.
viously given direction to his men to pull
directly for the boat, and on the moment Of
striking to "back water" instantly. About
midnight the boat was heard approaching
and taking his station in the bow, with a
nine inch shell in his hands, he gave the
order to 'give way" The moment his bow
struck the rebel boat he throw the shell in.
TO the middle of it, and was himself drawn
back, luckily receiving no injury from the
explosion. Not so the boat and occupants
however; the former of which was broker
IN two, and the latter were scattered in al
directions in the water, not, however, befor,
discharging their pistols at him, two ball
going through his cap and three perforatiDG
his coat. The men were then told that !
they submitted quietly they would besaved
otherwise he would leave them to their fate
They preferred the former, and arming him
self with his pistol in one hand and dirl
(taken by him at the battle of Bull Rur
from ''secesh") in the other had them tax
en- into his boat one, by one, handwriting
them as they were pulled in. In addition 4

was with some difficulty that he reached th'
Fort, the gunwale of the boat being almos
level with the water by its increased freight

Our Gun is Now Loaded.

A little while ago, 10 speaking of the ap-
parent tardiness of our war preparations, VIC
took occasion to tell the story Of Daniel
Boone and the Indian, as illustrative of the
condition of the country.
The Indian surprised the old hunter
asleep in the forest, and Boone awoke in
time to save his life by dodging behind a
tree. His gun was unloaded. Il lodged
and ran as we'll as I could" Boone used to
relate, ''the Indian so close on my heels
that could not get time to load my gun.
My knife had fallen to the ground. The
Indian was fully armed and knew / had
nothing. He kept me moving; and as 1
ran l had to load my gun. That was the
longest loading ever did 1t took me
half an hour at least. AT last l got the
bullet down, and then / changed my tactics
and made short work Of the cussed var
mint"
Boone's case, we said, was the nations case
as against the insurgents. They caught US
asleep and disarmed us. Fully armed
themselves, and ready in al things, they
have kept us on the defensive, warding off
blows with one hand while we loaded with
the other: but at last our gun is loaded.
The first reports of its discharge come to us
from Piketon and Port Royal: next week
we shall hear from East Tennessee, and the
firing will not cease until the white Indians
are made to bite the dust-TN. Y. Post.

bane-a Tennesseean-says:
l have seen Mr.. Lincoln, and / am not
ashamed to say in print what 1 have said
to my friends in Tennessee believe him
to be the right man in the right place, at
the right time. He has the features of
jackson and Hancock, whose statues are be-
fore the Presidential mansion. He looks
firm, honest, capable, great; we have all
seen he is faithful to the Constitution,
wherein his predecessor was faitbless. His
is the most majestic presence was ever
in. / have heard him represented as a
man unfit for high station. But to my eye
he looked the President of the Great Re-
public. His inaugural is the ablest State
paper ever read--the whole thing was
mapped out there--and nobly has he stood
it. Had he been little man he would
not have surrounded himself by Cabinet,
the ablest that ever assembled round the
council board. What American Statesman

Pregnant words.

In his reply to the address Of Count Pi-
per, the Minister Resident Of Sweden and
Norway at Washington, the President said:
"This country maintains, and means to main
tain the rights Of Human nature and the ca
pacity of man for self government"
"Words are things" in these days, as in
all great cricises in history; and We are glad
to hear once moro phrase which was
watchword in our revolutionary struggle,
but which has been little if at all used since
in public addresses. 1t was "for the rights
of human nature" that Franklin Jefferson,
Washington, Adams, all the patriots Of '76
believed themselves 10 be struggling. 1t
was the lofty and unselfish faith that
they were doing and suffering not for their
own petty welfare, but for tho interests OF
all mankind-that their cause was the cause
of humanity, and its triumph the triumph
Of "the rights Of the human race"-that
upheld them in their distresses.
We, too, are "maintaining the rights Of
human nature" against men who despise
labor, hate liberty, and openly rely for sue
ces upon the temptations thoy can hold out
TO the sel6shness Of foreign nations. The
cause for which We fight is to-day the cause
for which our fcrefathers fought in l77e,-
"the rights Of human nature."A- ". Y. Post.

BEHAVIOR OLE ouR MEN.

But very few of oursaiors had ever been
in action before, owing to the peaceful con-
dition of our National affairs Of late years,
which have entailed no wars on US; but 1
cannot learn that a single man flnched OF
faltered. Several of the captains have told
me that they now look upon their men as
already veterans in point of bravery, cool
ness, and utter indifference to danger.

Tho rebels chuckled not little when
they learned that MAsbf ADD StniEtL bad
succeeded 10 making theit eocape from tho
South, and snapped their fngers in high
glee at the yankees bidding them do
their best, aud enjoying hugely the ''morti-
fcation' which said 'Yankees" would feel
at tho result. The following from tho
Richmond Examiner Of Oct 20th, is0 sam
pie Of this cxultation:
"By this time our able representatives
abroad, Messrs. Mason and Slidell, are pret-
ty we'll over the briny deep towards the
shores Of Europe. We commit noindiscre-
ton in stating that they have embarked
upon vessel which will be abundantly abb
le to protect them against most Of the Yam
kee cruisers they may happen to meet, and
the chances are consequently hundred to
one that they will reach their destination
with safety. The malice Of our Yankee
enemies will thus be foiled, and the attempt
to capture them fail Of success. Great will
be the modification Of the Yankees when
they shall have learned this result Our
ministers did not choose to leave at any
other port than one Of our own, or under
any but the Confederate flag. q
"We believe that, at no distant day, Mr..
Mason will have the pleasure of signing .
treaty of amity on behalf of the Confeder-
ate States with one of the oldest and great
est dynasties Of Europe, and thus cement
those relations of commerce upon which our
future so largely depends"
We apprehend that the Ezominer
"laughs from the other side of its mouth"
by this time. The "resut" thus far Of the
attempt to send rebel ministers to Europe,
VIC can assue that paper is not specially
"mortifyiug" to the Yankees, and they will
await with due patience and interest the APP
pearance Of the "treaty of amity" which
those worthless are to sign.-Bldde.

THE WATCHER.


bl - hs MhiAAiEhs
Beside a stricken field l stood
On the torn turf on grass and wood,
Hung heavily the dew of blood
Still in the fresh mounds lay the slain,
But all the air was quick with pain
And gusty sighs and fearful rain.
Two angels, each with dropping head
And folded wings and noiseless tread,
Watched by that valley of the dead
The one, with forehead sanity bland
And lips Of blessing not command,
Leaned weeping, on her olive wand.
The others brows were Scared and knit,
His restless eyes were watch-hres lit,
His hands for battle.gauntlets fit.
"How long ri knew a voice of Peace,
as there no respite?-no released
When shall the hopeless quarrel cease?
"Oh Lord, how long lone human soul
Is more than any parchment scroll
Or any flag that winds unro1.
"What price was ELLSWORTH s, young and bravei
How weigh the gift that Lyon gaye2
Or count the cost of Wnthrop's grave?
"Oh brother2 if thine eye can see
Tell how and when the end shall be;
What hope remains for thee or me-"
Then Freedom sternly said: 81 shun
No strife nor pang beneath the sun
When human rights are staked aud won.
81 knelt with Ziska's hunted flock,
l watched in Toussiant's cell or rock,
walked with Sidney to the block.
"The moor of Marston felt my tread,
Through Jersey SHOWS the march led
My voice Magenta's charges sped.
"But now through weary day and night,
watch a vague and aimless fight
For leave to strike one blow Alright.
"On either side my foe they own;
One guards through love his ghastly throne,
And one through fear to reverence grown.
"Why wait we longer, Knocked, betrayed
By open foes or those afraid
To speed thy coming through my aidF
"Why watch to see who win or fall?-
shake the dust against them ALL
l leave them to their senseless brawl."
may" Peace implored "yet longer wait;
The doom is near, the stake is great;
God knoweth if it be too late.
"Still wait and watch; the way prepare
Where l with folded wings of prayer
May follow, weaponless and bare.
"Too late I" the stern, sad voice replied;
"Too late !" its mournful echo sighed;
In low lament the answer died.
Arustling as of wings in fight
An upward CLEAN of lessening white,
So passed the vision, sound aud sight.
But round me, like silver bell,
Hung down the listening sky TO tell
Of holy help, sweet voice fell.
"Stll hope and trust" it sang, "the rod
Must fall, the wine-press must be trod,
But all is possible with God"

PLUCK.

The case Of Thomas Jackson, coxswain
of the Wabash, deserves notice. He was
struck by a shot, or splinter, which SC
nearly cut his leg off as to leave it hanging
by small portion of the muscle and skin.
Partially rising and leaning painfully against
a gun, Jackson glanced at his mangled
limb, and, in instant preceived its hopeless
condition. Feeling behind his back ir his
belt, where seameu always carry thir knives,
he drew his sheath-knife from its leather
scabbard and deliberately began to saw
away his leg, but the knife was dull and
he could not cut the limb off. AS he was
borne below by his mates and afterward,
he asked continually how the fight was
going, and kept saying II hope we'll win
it, | hope we'll win" In two hours he
died, his last words being a wish for our
victory in this battle, and a word of thanks
that he had been able to do something for
the honor of the "dear old flag"
now THE SOLDIERS cHEERED THE SAILORS
The enthusiasm of the soldiers over tht
blue jackets, after the action, Utterly knew
no bounds. Whenever boats crew O
men-of-war's-men came alongside a trans
port, there was rush to the side to catcl
a nearer view Of the gallant sailors, and
possible, to clasp a tarry hand; and when
ever they appeared the cheers were frantic
ally loud and long drawn out, and the brav
Jacks were happy and proud as men can b,

A BRAVE BOY.

On almost every vessel after the fight,
the men were called aft and publicly thank
ed by their respective Captains. On the
ship Bienville, particular mention was made
and special thanks returned, in presence of
the ships company, to William Henry
Steele, boy not IA years old, who con-
Quoted himself with distinguished bravery.
He is powder boy, and not only never
flinched or lodged shot, but when two
men were killed at his gun he did not turn
pale or cease for an instant his duties, but
handed the cartridge he had in hand to the
gunner, STEPPED carefully over the bodies,
and fastened below for more ammunition.
Young Steele, is smart, active, intelli
gent boy from Williamsburg, N. H., where
his parents live. He cannot fail to make
such sailor as his country will yet be very
proud Of.

Some of the shots played queer pranks
One solid Columbiad shot of 100 pounds
weight ricocheted four times after striking
the water, and then seemed about TO pass
through the Bienville just above the water
line, when it suddenly took flying leap clean
over the latter ship, passing 10 or IL feet
above her decks, and struck the the Au-
