A Joke Oh LID, Russell,

The Herald tells the following incident Of
the great review at Washington
While the columns were passing in re-
view an officer rode up to Gen. Mcdowell,
the senior officer of the day, and informed
him that liquors were being freely sold by a
person from his carriage On the ground,
against all orders. The General authorized
the officer to have the offender arrested.
The officer complaining took squad OF MIN
with him, and started in pursuit of the all
legged vender OF intoxicating drinks, and soon
halted in front of carriage containing a
basket OF champagne, the contents of which
was being freely dispensed by the proprie-
tor thereof. The officer made inquiry as to
the name of the owner, and was informed
that the proprietor of the team and cham.
payne was Russell. What Russell ?" ask.
ed the officer. Russell of the London
Times" Are you selling this article ~
inquired the officer, pointing no the cham.
payne. Selling the devil. Do you think
l keep grog shOp?" responded Russell.
BY this time the officer began to "smel a
rat" and quietly drove away, finding not
very soon after that it was another person
who was violating orders by selling liquors
on the ground. Said person was accordingly
arrested and placed in the guard house.

The Kentucky Campaign.

Ii General Nelson's federal troops tailed
to make Wholesale slaughter or capture of
the rebels at Piketon, Kentucky, it was not
because they lacked the will, but because
the rebels ran away; tor we find in the
Louisville papers the following proclama.
ton from that officer, dated at Piketon, and
the name be gives his camp tells the story
Of the enemy's fight:
HEADQUARTERS, CAMP HOPELESS CHASE,
Piketon, KY, Nov. 10, 1861,
Soldiers! / thank you for what you have
done. In a campaign of twenty days you have
driven the rebels from Eastern Kentucky
and given repose to that portion of the State.
You have made continued forced marches over
wretched roads, deep in mud; badly clad you
have bivouacked on the wet ground in the No.
vember rains, without murmur. With scarce
half ratiOns you have pressed forward with
unfailing perseverance. The only place that
the enemy made stand, though ambushed
and very strong, you drove him from in the
most splendid style. For your constancy and
courage thank you, and with the qualities
which you have shown that you possess, l ex.
pect great things from you in the future.
w. NELSON.

The Officers of Our Army.

n. p. Willis, in his Washington cores
pondcnce to the Home Journal, thus speaks
of the officers of the " Grand Army:
The bright buttons" too, will make a
great difference this winter! And 1 am
happy to be able to make favorable report
to the ladies on this subject for knowing
the recent sneers at our volunteer officers,
especially by foreign journalists, l have
scanned them closely, with my opportuni.
ties for the last three months. No other
cause or country could have collected so
fine body of young men, it seems to me,
-interspersed as they certainly are with
those instances of vulgarity ana incompe>
tency-the appointment OF political hacks
and their favorites. These blemishes-the
mere superficial froth of newly created ar
my-wiII speedily disappear and it will
then be seen that the war cry has brought
into the field the best spirit and chivalry of
the country. emphatically repeat that I
have nowhere seen finer young men than
the majority of the young officers now
here. There is many youth among them
whom Nature has made more princely than
the Princes who are their comrades.

THE WEEKLY PIONEER AND DEMOCRAT
The Horrors OF Civil War I'm Missouri.

We copy from the Missouri Republican
OF the 23d, the following graphic picture of
the present condition of Missouri
Doubtless no pen will ever describe these
horrors in their full extent and terrible
blackness. Thoughtful men prophecied be-
fore the war set in, awful scenes, without
probably comprehending 1.-THE of the dis
tress, woe and horrors which were in store
for our scourged people. If one will open
the pages of Edmund Burke, and scan the
picture he has painted of the war in the
Carratic he will have a faint idea of the
waste and ruin. which have desOlated SO
large part OF our afflicted State. Read
anywhere the history OF the civil brolis
which have in different ages and among diff
ferent people, set neighbor against neigh
Dor, and given a field OF employment Tor
the robbers and rayagers of property, and
the assassins of reputation and life-which
have covered almost every square league of
territory with hostile camps--which have
split the blood OF citizens in battle or in
murder--which have carried terror over
whole districts and into the bosoms of in
Vulnerable homes--which have set brother
against brother, father against son, in NOR
tai STRIFE, and faint idea again may be
gathered of the dreadful condition to which
Missouri is this day reduced. Her own
children imbrue their hands in each others
blood. and fire each others dwellings; while
enemies from without, who come 10 painting
to gut revenge which is Unsuitable, rejoic-
ingly assist in this devilish work and add to
its horrors and denominations. To-day, a
Union leader. as was Cook in the western
part OF the State recently, will be seized and
his life taken on the spot; tomorrow, q
Judge of one of the Courts, who sympa-
thized with the South, will be murdered,
while a close prisoner in the hands of the
head of an armed force, who has sworn to
protect him, but cannot make good bis
pledge, and the case seems almost hopeless
There is no balm in Gilead, and no physi
clan there. Missouri has within her borders
no men who can, as Missourians, stand up,
and facing those dreadful exigencies, tell
her people now they could be met and what
is the remedy. There is mutual hate and
dstrust. No man believes another honest
in any course of paci6cation that either
may recommend. Men are prone to think
and believe the worst of each other. 1t is
time when every private enemy can graf
ify his revenges; for there is nothing that
malice can invent which will not be credit.
ed by one man OF any other man who even
so much as differs in opinion from him.
At such time, this distressed and har-
raised people ought to welcome, even from
without, any administration which promises
to govern with wisdom adequate to the
emergency. We have confidence in the
power now pending here, and we cherish
hopes that through the jnstice apd discrim-
ination of its exercise, some relief may be
promised for our unhappy State.

End Of the Campaign In Western
Virginia.

Our wheeling Lrteltagencer) advices
from Cheat Mountain are that several OF
the Ohio regiments are ordered, and are now
on their way, to Kentucky. Others, it is
reported, will take up the line of march in
few days for General Kelley's headquar-
tiers at Romney, and in connection with the
force already there, commence forward
movement 10 concert with an expected
movement OF the grand army of the PO~
tomac.
The advance camp of Gen. Reynolds, now
holding the mountain pass, will retain their
position, and will make themselves snug and
comfortable and secure in their strongly en-
trenched blockhouses. The rebels who have
heretofore threatened his advance have
pretty much ali dissipated away. Their own
accounts of themselves, as ascertaincd in
their captured letters, are gloomy enough.
Out of 1900 men in one body, not 300 we're
fit for service. But very few OF Lees
"grand army" now remain on the other
side of Cheat Mountain Pass. Discour-
aged, diseased, demOralized, they have dis
sipated away until our troops find but little
to engage their attention. Consequently
our Generals are removing them to other
fields
We (Richmond Enquirer, l0th,) learn
that the following disposition has been made
of our forces in Western Virginia /:
Gen. JacksOn's command will go into
winter quarters at Monterey.
Gen. Lorings command will be divided ;
a portion will winter atGreen River Bridge,
and another portion will ne moved to VIM
chester, Strasburg, and that vicinity.
Gen. Floyd is still on the Kanawha, his
lines extending from Cotton Hill to Mont
gomery Ferry.
The Third Virginia Regiment, Colonel
Stark, of Wise's Brigade, has been ordered
to join Gen. Fioyd's command.

If any healthy, pious, domestic woman,

not be insisted upon, although "it possible
she should add the throat of the warbler to
the sum of the other attractions. We sup
pose that it must be the just sense of "the
vanity of this world" which induces the
advertiser to be so easily satisfied in part
ner for life. Good health, pety, domestic
habits, and a competency, it seems are all
that would be indispensable to his gratifi-
cation, although musical talent, thrown in,
would be highly appreciated. He is as

up her simple wants in the desire for "noth
