feel that facts as they really are ought to
be made known. Now, these are the facts
in the case: We met with the church for
the purpose of holding covenant meet
ing; before religion or charity got there,
political christianity was discussed, in which
| was let down on with heavy hand,
called names, and one Of my beloved sis
tiers could not fellowship me; the conduct
of some, the most prominent members be-
inc present, was disgrace to any church,
and reminded me of the Spanish lnqui-
sition, the Roman Church or the Salem
Witchcrrft Infatuation. | concluded to do
as Pael told Timothy: from such NTH
draw Myself | asked for letter and
being refused | made a motion to have our
names stricken from the church books,
which motion was carried, with the under
standing that we were honorably dis
charged with our own consent; the week
after our withdrawal we were called on to
attend a church meeting to have a hear
inc, but as we had no wish to pleet with

of more value than two of gospel, we de-

EDITOR HERALD The heading of this
line will reveal to you my whereabouts.
The Legislature is i'll full blast; so was
Camp Randall until yesterday, when the
proclamation for three years enlistment or
"during the war" caused considerable ex-
element among volunteers. Chief Justice
Dixon administers the oath. A shaking
OF dry bones commenced, they only hay-
inc an hour to consider the matter The
companies all suffered more or less. The
Beloit Company, Capt. Slaymaker. being
dsbanded, composed principally Of stu
dents. Capt. Mckee only lost fourteen Of
his company, being less than the average.
Mckee left here this morning recruiting,
having ten days to fill his company; since
be left, fresh orders have arrived from the
War Department changing the number Of
ren in companies as follows:
i Captain, l LIST Lieutenant, I'd Lieu
tenant, / lst Sergeant, Sergeants, s
Corporals, 2 Musicians, ! Wagner, 80
Priyates; Total. l0l.
This is reliable as regards Volunteer
Companies, but not the regular ARM.
As YOU will discover that Captains report
ing companies must have at least SO ant
not over 1Ol members, including officers.
The Legislature wisely refuse 20 do any
business except that relating to the war.
Clark tells me the committee on the war
bill will not be ready to report until Mon
day next, at which time they will adjourn.
Cobb will undoubtedly receive an appoint

Now in Capitol Square, choosing their Of
ficers, composed entirely of members Of
the Legislature; hey will tender them
selves to Uncle Sam forthwith, Jared

were ordered off at once.

Much obliged for your friendly interest.
We have had every moment occupied, or
when not. writing is out Of the question.
thought that should be able to write to
YOU often, but so far it has been impossible.
We are getting along very well at the
Camp. Food is abundant and good
enough--and our quarters are quite COM
Portable, All the company are in good
health; one has been sick but is now get
ting well. We are all growing rugged and
soldierly. We are improving rapidly in
our drill, and | am proud to say that the
Grant County Greys are second to none
in the regiment.
To-day at 10 o'clock the oath Of enlist
ment was administered to the regiment by
companies Chief Justice Dixon ofiiciated
Previously however. the companies were
mustered separately and talked to by their
officers, after which those who chose not TO
take the oath as prescribed were permitted
to withdraw from the service; such were
ordered to step PAGES in front; we lost
in this way 5 men, and there was but one
company on the ground which did better,
viz: the Belle City Rifles, Capt. Strong.
He lost but two OF three men. Some COM
panies lost from one-third to one half Of
the number. We are allowed 10 days to
fill up AMI we shall doubtless do SO within
3 DAYS. | have from the start felt proud
Of the Gyeys and Of old Grant, but to-day
| feel prouder than ever; couldn't think OF
living permanently in any other county ~
the State
There was no prejudice or i'll feeling on
III part Of those who withdrew from our
company against their ofticers-as they
have nearly all certified written statement
which we hold. Their decision was
was formed upon other grounds--some al
lodging one ason, some another, but
mainly the condition or opposition Of their
families. and the long time aohich they
were required to ser0e. They were not re-
preached by those remaining.

EE Tennessee is practically out of the
Union; the commissioners appointed by
the Governor to meet the Southetn Con-
gress under pretense Of peace making, SO
arranged with the traitors that Tennessee
is pledged to supply a secession army, and
this arrangement has been confirmed by
the Governor, whose action will be true to
JEFF. Davis. Tennessee is gone, and we
think Kentucky and Missouri will go in
like manner-saye only that the troops of
loyal States will stand in their way.

A Card.

The undersigned, having been members
of the Grant County Greys, and having
this day retired and been discharged from
said company for the reason that we did
not deem it our duty at the present time
to enlist in the service for term of three
years or for the war, as required by the
proper authorities, take this opportunity,
freely and voluntarily, to state that We are
not influenced in taking this step by any
prejudice against or hostility to the officers
Of said company, or either of them, but
that we are solely influenced in this de-
termination by our family relations and
affairs. We ara and have been
perfectly satisfied with the conduct Of our
officers.

The Missouri s-ceasioniets.


JUST WHAT OUGHT TO BE DoNE.-The
ST. Louis Democrat says that the general
government intends to hold every banker
or individual in Missouri amenable for tre0t-
son, WHO advances any money to Coy,
Jackson, on the bills which passed to arm
the State. The object is so clearly to make
war on the United States, that the govern
ment will not hesitate moment. 1t also
SAYS that if Gov. Jackson attempts to seize
the School Fund, Or the money (S5Oe.000
ia the possession Of the Banks to pay the
July interest on the State Bonds, the GEN
eral government VIII hold Gov. jackson
guilty Of treason. We like this. 1t is the
proper way to treat the enemies of our
country-whether they be Governors or
private citizens. Let Gen. Harvey occupy
jefferson City, with 1000 Of the Missouri
Volunteers, and the treason which the in
famous Gov. jackson has been Matching,
viii be strangled in the bud. There is not
a greater coward in America than that
same Claiborne f. jackson; but like the
Maryland Secessionists, be will become pla-
cable, when he sees visible evidences of the
power ofthe United States. Gen. Harvey
is just the man to deal with Secession Pr
rates. He is fearless and unshrinkang of
all and every consequence to himself, when
he has orders from the Commander-Ip-
Chief. His late visit to Washington has
impaired yigor and efficiency TO bis 10y
ulty, and sagacity in meeting treason,
that is securing for him the profound adj
miration Of the loyal citizens Of the West.

DuNLEITH ADvERrTsER.-This paper
has been suspended, and Mr.. Paul has
purchased The Gaena Cou,ior office and
VII publish a weekly paper at Galena for
the present, the Daily Courier being also
abandonded. The new arrangement will
doubtless be acceptable to the former read
ers Of the Dunleith paper and the Galena
Courier. Mr.. Paul is man Of singular
and remarkable abilities as an editor. We
do not say that he is not excelled as a
writer, but al. an editor he is surely without
a superior in the countrr. His ability to
dress up news and to CLEAN from exchanges
just SO much no more of what viii be read ;
his expert use Of the scalpel in sore places
and bis ingenious method of dealing with
politics and parties without giving offense
and yet without seeming to care who is
shot, are some Of bis peculiar part. He
ought TO be remarkably successful and
quite fortune builder, and we think he
viii be where he is now placed. Nobody
will regret patronizing Paul; like first
class show, his paper will be worth pay
ing to see every week, apart from the music
and fun.
