FRIEND JACK On Friday all the
flags of this city were lowered to half
mast and all outward tokens of sorrow
manifested in honor of the late depart
ed statesman. On Thursday evening
there was meeting held in this place,
and committee appointed to draft
resolutions expressive Of the feelings
of the citizcns Of this place, which
meeting was adjourned to Friday eve.
What resolutions were passed I cam
not say; but great sorrow is mani
tested over the decease of Douglas.
Yesterday there was a flag to be
raised five miles from this place, in
farming community. The farmers
sent teams for the conveyance of the
8. d. Company, and the most of us,
with host of citizens went to the
grounds. As the pole bad been put
up the day previous, all that was to be
done was to hoist the Stars and Stripes,
which was done amid enthusiastic
cheering. Speeches were then made
by Mr.. Burchard, a. Scott Sloan, and
others. Sloan is a good talker, and
speaks to the point. He compared the
South to a disobedicnt child. and rec
commended the remedy Of his mother,
which was, he said, 'sto reverse and
spank; after the child had time to dry
It's tears, it would repent its ,iisobedi
ence and love its parents the more
After the speaking we listened to the
"Star Spangled Banner then returned
home. About one thousand people
were on the ground, among them the
Burnette Home Guards, all mounted,
the most Of them in uniform, number
ing from fifty to sixty all told. They
made uoble appearance.
| forgot to mention that the Hon. A.
Scott Sloan had kindly offered to frank
all our mail matter He calls at the
Clark House every evening and at
tends to that matter, therefore our
friends, our wives, and our sweethearts
may expect to hear from us often while
sojourning in Beaver Dam.
Nonday.--To-day, at three O'clock,
the Hon. Mr. Larabee arrived to mus
ter tie Beaver Dam Rifles into service,
and to deliver to them the oath of al
legiaEce. In the afternoon he cxamin-
ed, and tonight at ! o'clock and 80
minutes they took the oath in the street,
in front of the Clark House. The
boys are all feeling rejoiced over the
prospect of soon being called to ser
vice. There is ten times the rejoicing
to night that there has previously been.
?. S.-The Company, those who
have taken the oath, officers included,
number ninety eight.

- There is a company of volun-
teers in Kentucky who style them
selves ';The Dare Devils" They are
represented as very anxious to come
IN contact with Wilson'S New York
Zouaves. If they do, heaven pity
them, for about one hundred "deyils''
would be transferred from earth to
that other place in q very short time.
- The military Company organiz-
ed IN this City for the war, under Capt.
Catlin, is full and will leave for their
rendezvous at GAINESVILLE in few days.
The Company has q large sprinkling
Of Pinery Boys from Grand Rapids,
who learning that our ranks were not
full, so many of our Young men having
joined the earlier companies in the
neighborhood, came forward promptly
and joined the Beaver Dam Rifles
They were cordially welcomed, and
their strong arms and brave hearts
gili add efficiency to the army Of the
Union. BeGve1, nana Uein

A GOOD IDEA.

The soldiers in the various divisions Of
Of the army, have experienced considerable
difficulty in procuring postage stamps for
the letters they wished to write TO their
friends. Many Of them not having cent
IN their pockets, felt the postage question
to be an important one to them. At some
camps members Of Congress have stayed
Tor days and weeks franking thousands OF
letters for the troops. But whatever the
soldiers saved by this favor on the par: Of
Congl css1nen, the Post Office Department
lost in its rightiul receipts.
On the assembling Of Congress the ques-
ton came up for consideration. Some ad-
Vocated the passage Of an amendment to
the postal laws, comforting on the officers
OF regiments the privilege Of franking
for their men; but this was objected
to On the grounds, that it opened
a wide door for inpositions on the De-
partment- Various other propositions
were made, but none answered the ueces-
saIy requirements until Hon. S. Colfax
hit on plan, which at once met the con-
currenee OF tho House. He proposes to
confer on soldiers the right to mail their
letters Tithou. prenayirg postage en- them.
But the postage is to bc paid by the per
sons to whom they are directed. By this
methcd the soldier when short of money,
can send home his messages Of love or
friendship, and at the same time the
Postal service will not be deprived of It's
revenues. The national teasury is not in
condition 10 make good any larger deficits
u4an cali be helped in Post-of1icc Depart
mcnt, and the nearer seEfsustaining it can
lie made the better. Mr. Coltax introduced
q bill q few days ago to carry the iorego-
11ginto effect, and VIC observe that it pass
ed the House yesterday without opposi-
ton. It will go through the Senate with
out delay, and become law, much to the
satisfaction Of q quarter Of million Of
brnYe soldier bows

TIE THREE MONTHS, TROOPS.

The term Of enlistment Of the three
months volunteers is now expiring. Be-
tween the 18th and 3oth of July the time
OF 10000 men will be out, and most Of
them home OF on their way.
There will be great activity at all The re-
cruiting stations to I'll up the vacancies
thus created. All the regiments previous
u raised for three years, will be hurried
forward to supply the places of those with
drawn. a few months at most will restore
the divisions IN Virginia to their former
strength. The campaign may be checked,
from this cause, for a time, but the delay
can only be temporary.
4 considerable number of the three
months men are Ic-en1isting for the war
before leaving their camps. They get a
turlough after being sworn in for three
years, and come home to visit their friends
and settle up their personal affairs, which
were lett IL loose condition when they
obeyed the first call for volunteers With
such extraordinary a1acrity and rushed to
the rescue of their oountzy's flag.
But Large majority Of the three months
men are returning, with no immediate il
tcntion Of re-enlistng. But after seeing
their friends and spending their pay, and
finding the dull condition Of the cities and
towns, and observing the great scarcity
Oh emp!oyracnt,, nine-tcnt Of them will

will settle down to The quiet of nr;v,t.
