Colonel EIlsworth.

The death Of this gallant and prom
ising young officer, at a time when he
was just entering upon q career for
which he seemed so peculiarly adapted,
will be everywhere, throughout the 10y
al States, deeply regretted; and this os
pecially, as he was permitted to fall by
the hands of an assassin The thous-
ands who had watched the process by
which he had transformed a mass Of
not very subordinate citizens into a
body Of brave and efficient soldiers, will
feel sad at the thought that he was not
spared to win even a frstling Of that
crop Of laurels that seemed so nearly
within his grasp, and will long to see
bis death avenged by his followers upon
some well-fought battlefield.
Colonel Ellsworth was a native Of
New England, and was for q time at.
tached to the United States Military
Academy at West Point, where he ac-
quired extraordinary proficiency in mil
itary evolutions and the use Of arms
A few years ago he took up his resi-
dence at Chicago, at which city he en-
rolled and educated a corps Of Houaves,
whose appearance in the principal cities
Of the North attracted so much attention
during last Summer.
1t was the intention of Mr.. Lincoln
who had, while candidate, formed a
strong attachment for Colonel Ellsworth
to attach him to his person. and the
Colonel was invited, in February last,
to form one of his escort to the City Of
Washington. His prospects were for a
prominent position in the War Depart
mont; but when it came to be seen that
war was inevitable, the ambitious spirit
of Colonel Ellsworth prompted him to
| prefer a service that opened a field for
greater activity, aud a higher reputa-
ton. His soldiers eyes had detected
in the New York Fire Department the
material for body of soldiers such as
/ he desired to command. His name and
reputation brought him to a multitude
and in two days he enrolled over q
thousand volunteers. of whom ten com.
panies were accepted. The history of
the progress of his regiment to Wash
ington, and since it arrived, is vel
! known.
At the age of twenty-seven years hc
has fallen, at the very threshold Of, as
all who knew him believed, a glorious
career. The profound sensation which
his death produced at Washington viii
be exI erienoed wherever bravery, faith
fulness and devotion to the country ar
regarded as titles to reputation.-T Gin

Hints to Volunteers-Keep Your
Shoes Easy,
a soIdier neodg. besides big soldiorly

A soldier needs, besides bis soldiorly
drill,
Good feet.
H. A good stomach
III. And after these come the good
head and the good heart.
But good feet are distinctly the frst
thing Without them you cannot get
to your duty If a oomrade, or a horse,
or a locomotive, takes you on its back TO
the field you are useless there. And
when the field is lost you cannot retire,
run away, and save your bacon.
Good shoes and plenty of walking
make good feet. A man who protends
to belong to an infantry company ought
always to keep himself in training, SO
that any moment he can march twenty
or thirty miles without feeling pongor
raising blister Was this the case with
even a defamation Of the army who rush
ed to defend Washington? Were you
so trained, my comrades Of the SEVENTH
A captain Of o company who will let
his men march with such shoes as
have seen on the feet Of some poor fol-
lows in this war, ought to be garroted
with shoe strings, or at least compelled
to play Pope and wash the feet of the
whole army of the Apostles Of Liberty.
If you find a foot soldier lying beat
out by the roadside, desperate as a sea
sick man, five to one his heels are too
high, or his solos too narrow or too thin,
or his shoe is not made straight on the
inside, so that the great toe can spread
into its place as he treads.

tions Of the suffering and death have
known for want Of good feet on the
march, l say to every volunteer.

Gen. McClellan's Address to the Vir-

On the advance Of the o. S. troops
into Western Virginia, Major.General.

lamation:
HEAU-QUAnrERs DEPARTMENT or rHE ONO }
CfSCtNsArf, May 20, 1901. :
To the Union Men Of Western Virginia.
VIRGINGANsl-The General Govern
mem has long enough endured the ma.
chinations of few functions rebels iu
your midst. Armed traitors have In
vain endeavored to deter you from eZ-
pressing your loyalty at the polls
Having failed in this Infamous attempt
70 deprive you of the exercise Of your
dearest rights, they now seek to inaug-
urate a reign Of terror, and thus force
you to yield to their schemes, and sub
nit to the yoke of the traitorous con-
spiracy, dignifed by the name Of South
ern Confederacy.
They are destroying the property of
citizens ofyour State, and running your
magnificent railways. The General
Government has heretofore carefully alb
stained from sending troops across the
Ohio, or even from posting them along
tits banks, although frequently urged
by many Of your prominent citizens to
do so. 1t determined to await the re.
suit of the election, desirous that no one
might be able to say that the slightest
effort had been made from this side to
influence the free expression Of your
opinion, although the many agencies
brought to bear upon you by the rebels
were well known. You have now shown
under the most adverse circumstances
that the great mass of the people Of
Western Virginia are true and loyal to
that beni6cent Government under
which we and our fathers have lived so
long. As soon as the result Of the elec.
ton was known the traitors commenced
their work Of destruction. The Gener.
al Government cannot close its ears tC
the demand you have made for assis
tance, l have ordered troops to cross
the river. They come as your friend.
and brothers, as enemies only to the
armed rebels who are preying upon you
Your homes, yOUr fumHieS aad youI

All yoUr rights shalt be rcligtousy re.

Notwithstanding all that has beer
said by the traitors to induce you to be
lieve that our advent among you viii
be signalized by interference with you
slaves, understand one hiag clearly, no
only 10W zoe abstain from all such inter
ference, but zoe l0U, on the c0ntyary
,oith an iron hand, crush any attempt u
insuryection on their part Now that W,
are in your midst, l call upon you t

Government Sever the connection
that binds you to traitors: proclaim tt
the world that the faith and loyalty 81
long bOasted by the Old Dominion ar
still preserved in Western Virginia, AM
that you remain true to the stars an

General Scott.

The Washington correspondent of
tho New York Evening Post, writes:
One of the most intimate personal
friends Of Gen. Scott, and who is daily
in his company, informs me that, saving
an anHoying and painful swelling of
the ankles, the illustrious old chief is in
good physical condition, while his spiF.
its never flag. His patriotism is of the
highest and truest type, and apart from
this, dislike for jeff Davis, who, with
Pierce, heaped unwonted indignitios up
on him, warrants the belief that he will
spare no pains to efFectually thWart the
plans Of that arch traitor.
General Scott is daily advancing his
plan for the campaign, which when
finally and fully developed, will reflect
great credit upon his military skill and
experience, and satisfy the country
He will move his troops in large mum
bors, and do a certain and terrible work,
but notuntil all things are ready
There will probably be some skirmish-
ing at Fortress Monroe, Harper's Ferry,
and Alexandria, but it is not likely that
any great aggressive movement will be
made this season. The veteran General
will not be caught mapping, however,
under any circumstances.

A Ramarkabie statement.

We find this remarkable paragraph in
the editorial columns Of the Rochester
Union, a Democratic paper:
This great and long standing oonspir-
acy was we'll known in its outlines to Mr..
Buchanan himself. We heard from his
own lips, previous to his entering upon
the duties of the Presidency, that he had
been reliably informed Owe think he said
by Gov. Wise) that the officers of the
army and navy had been polled on the
question whether, in case of rupture
between the two sections of the Union,
they would respectively 60 with the
North or the South; and that nearly eve
ry Southern man answered he would ad-
here to the section which gave him birth,
Here we have proof not only that this
conspiracy had assumed its present de-
terminate shape five years ago, aud
only waited for opportunity; but that
Mr.. Buchanan was perfectly we'll aware
of the fact at the very time when he took
some of the leaders into his Cabinet;
aud when he was passively aiding Cobb,
Floyd Thompson and Touoey, in their
plans 10 cripple the Federal Govern
ment, and assure the success Of the re-
bellion,

THE MASSACHUSETTS EIGuTH-The
Atlantic Monthly has a a contributor in
the New York Seventh, who speaks as
follows of the Massachusetts, Eighth:
Gas soon as the Massachusetts, Regi-
ment had made prize of the ferry boat,
a call was made for engineers to run
her. Some twenty men at once stepped
to the front. We Of the New York
Seventh afterwards concluded that
whatever was needed in the way of skill
or handicraft could be found among
these brother Yankees. They were the
men to make armies of. They could
tailor for themselves, shoe themselves,
do their own blacksmithing, gunsmith-
ing, and all other work that calls for
sturdy arms and nimble fingers In
fact, 1 have such a profound confidence
in the universal accom- plishment of the
Massachusetts Eighth, that have no
doubt, if the order were, Poets to the

She has performed the meanest and most
sneaking part in this whole business
