that rests upon them rs Christians 10 improve
their talents. and to prepare themselves to
worship God in an acceptable manaer. 1t is
the dsty of Christians to pray for spirit Of
Praise. they often pray for spirit of PRAYER,
but they are seldom heard praying for .pirit
Of Praise: the reason is this: they lose sight
ofthe fact that, If it is necessary to have a
spirit of Prayer in order to serve God. it ia
xlA0 necessary to have spirit of Praise to
enable them to praise him; and thus it ia:
while the former is sought gained and enjoyed

Enfield and Mimic Rifles.

In these piping times of war" we
see great deal in print and hear
much nonsense talked about the En-
field and Mimic rifles. 1t is most gen
orally supposed that the Enfields and
and MINES are peculiar rifles, the one
French and the other English, both
invented by men whose names have
been given to their firearms. The
Enfield derives its name from the
place where it is made, namely, the
government armory at Enfield, Eng
land, and it is in most respects like
the American army rifle made at
Springfield, Mass. The barrel of it is
formed of the best charcoal iron it's
length is 80 inches bore, 5,S0th of
an incl it has three grooves, l-l6th
of an inch wide and 500th of an inch
deep. The pitch of the grooves is
6 feet 6 inches. A hollow concal
ball, with a plug of lockwood placed
in the base, is used in this rifle. A
graduated back sight, set for ranges
from 200 to 1000 yards, is fixed on
all the Enfelds.
The Mimic rifle derives its name
from Lieutenant Mimic Of the French
Infantry, who first applied the hollow
expanding bullet to the army rifle,
and by whose cxertions it was first
brought into use. The French rifles
have four grooves. .O275s inches in
width, .OO7sS in depth, and one turn
in six feet. The bullet is hollow and
conical, and weighs 494 grains no
wedge is now used. Formerly elevat-
ing sights were fixed on all the
French rifles, but these have been
dispensed with so as to render the
arms more simple. The back of the
rifle is elevated at .7S of an inch
above the barrel. A French soldier
of the line aims at the waistband of
the foe, and with his fixed rifle sight
he is sure to strike him within or at
$50 yards distant. When firing at q
greater distance he uses his thumb
nail for back sight, by placing il
across the barrel, and by long prac'

MILITARY,

Tuesday (4th inst. was day full
of excitement. The Masonic Grand
Lodge of Iowa commenced its session,
the County Legislature was in conven-
tion, there was circus in town, and
to cap the climax two military compa-
MES arrived from the west on the af-
ternoon train-Capt John Smiths
company of Cedar Falls, and Capt.
Trumbull's company from Butler coun-
ty, comprising not less than 200 men
in the two. The Washington Guard,
commanded by their Captain, r. G.
Heron, turned out in full force and
gave them a true military reception.
Forming at the depot on the arrival
Of the train, they then escorted them
up Main street to 9th, then back to
7th, and from there to the Park, where
they were welcomed to the hospitali.
ties of the city by Judge Pollock in a
very able and neat little speech. The
patriotic sentiments and cordial cour-
tesy expressed by him were grateful
Iy received by the strangers and cal
led forth prolonged applause. The
Germania Band, who were present,
then played one of their best peices,
after which the whole military parad-
ed an hour, and marched to the Guards
almory and were there dismissed.
A hundred compliments were heard
on every hand from the multitudes
who throngcd the sidewalks to wit

They were truly fine corps of men.

we looked at those double ranks of
sturdy yeomen we were sensible of
the need for pity.

SPLENDID MILITARY CAMPAIGN.

The following details show the
splendor and genius of the campaign
of Gen. Winfield Scott in Mexico.
Let our volunteers remember that un-
der the same chieftain they are to
fight:
He landed his little army, planted
his batteries, and eight days after
ward despatched word to his govern
ment that the flag ofthe United States
floated in triumph over the castle of
San Juan de Ulloa-the same wave
girdcd and battle-scarred fortress
which, in Europe, had been deemed
another Sebastopol. He scaled the
Cordilleras, bore the eagles of his
country in quick succession through
the streets of Jalapa, Perote and
Puebla-with $500 men swept through
the so called impracticable pass Of
Cerro Gordo, defended by $500 Mexj-
cans-with the same number Of 1lcn
defeated $4,000 at Contreras aud
Cherubusco-with 1870 men stormed
Chapultepcc, defended by 10000, and
with 5000 took the city of Mexico.
occupied by an army OF $4,000 He
did his work and he saved his soldiers.
He threw not Il life away that could
be saved, and successfully used every
possible means to secure the health
and comfort Of his men

IOWA RESPONDS.

Right gallantly and nobly has our
sister State of Iowa responded to the
demands of patriotism. Her one reg
iment under the first call of the Presi-
dent, was raised and equipped within
a day or two, or as rapidly as the
mails and telegraph lines could con-
vey orders and signify acceptances,
after the Presidents Proclamation
was issued. But she did not halt
with the simple performance of her
duty. Gov. kirkwood called the
Legislature together in extra session,
to consider the wants of the State and
its obligations to the Federal Govern
ment. That body has just concluded
its labors, and adjourned. While in
session, the two Houses passed and
the Governor approved a well consid-
cred and effective bill for re-organiz-
ing the Militia, bill creating four
regiments of volunteers for instruction
and drill, bill to raise sum sulli-
cient for expenses incurred in the
purchase of arms, &C., bill au-
thorizing towns, cities and counties
to appropriate money for the support
of the families Of volunteers, a bill
paying volunteers from the time of
their acceptance by the Governor un-
til mustered into the service of the
United States, a bill for the defence
of the northwestern frontier against
the threatened attack of the Sioux,
and bill authorizing loan OF
100000 for such contingencies as
may arise in connection with the re-
bollion. This is well but it does not
meet the expectations of the gallant

life, without attaining any possible re-
suits worthy of accomplishment. The
people of the North enter into this
contest under a patriotic sense of du-

FORTRESS MONROE.

We find in the Bradford (Vt.) Telc-
graph letter written by Lieut.. Farm
ham, of the Bradford Guard composing
a part Of the first Vermont Regiment,
and now stationed at Fortress Monroe.
We make the following extract:
Yesterday afternoon our Regiment
gave dress parade in the fort and
we received much praise from ALL
After we get into the fort we shall be
perfectly safe, as indeed we are now,
from any attack of any forces in this
vicinity. The interior Of the fort COW
ers space of Ga acres, and is cover
ed with u beautiful growth of green
and is a beautiful place. The gardens
about the officers houses are filled
with flowers. There are now 2,40O
men here, just the full complement to
man the guns. The rebels cannot
take it by storm. 1t is perfectly i'm
possible. The only way is by siege,
and you may be sure that they will
not be permitted to come up and build
Notifications about us as they did
about Sumpter. We shall just pitch
into them before they can make any
extensive preparations. The walls Of
the fort are about twenty feet high, of
solid, cemented masonry, with a pro-
lection of thirty feet of earth inside.
Immediately outside the walls, be-
tween US and the fort, is o ditch SO

deep. Outside Of all this is well

Oh, glorious country of the free
Where martyr'd heroes bled and died
Where every inch of hallowed soil
Is cherished with patriots pride.
The land for which our fathers fought
Shall we pglorously resign
To traitors, who abjure their oath,
And tramplc on each right divine!
No! sound the tocsin far and wide
Gather, yc hosts, the true and brave:
Defend the countrv c. yuur slres,
or make its funeral pyre your grave.
Forbearance now becomes no more
A virtue in the loyal heart;
1ctton is now the watchword given
To arms-and hold the victor part.
Coin the glory of youth
In manhood's strength for freedom rally
unfurl your banner to the breeze
With treach rous foes no longer daily.
And as the Spartan mothers gave
Their jewels to the battlefield,
And buckled ON with trust and pride,
Exultingly, the spear and shield
So now We matrons of the brave,
Whose sacred blood has made you free,
unshrinking at your country's call,
Rival the famed Thermopyle.
And oh We sons, finch not nor yield,
But bear We bravely in the fight
And be your oriilamme to-day,
AS was of yore-'' God and the Right"
For home, for liberty, for truth,
Strike back the blow that seals them thine
Strike for your birthright, as the foe
Advances with its rcCreant line.
And when in after years. your sons
Shall read on HiStory's page the story
OF noble deeds so bravely done,
Which stamped anew their country story
They still shall guard the holy flame, Ting
Toward them undimmcd its radiance turn
\ beacon light, forever bright,
Of Freedom on her altar burning.

the General has decided to retain all
the negroes who have come. An Of
iiccr has been appointed to take a
general charge of them, taking re-
ccipts of all parties who select SER
wants from his gang, and opening an
account with the rcputed owner of
each negro, charging the expense of
caring for and supporting the non-la-

the men and women employed. So
much for the negro question in its

Correspondence Of the Dubuque Daily Times
The Departure of the Volunteers.

CEpAR FALLS, June 2, 1901.
To-day is the Sabbath, but it does
not appear so from the appearance of
Main street. Capt. Smith and his
company are busy getting ready for
marching to your city. The good la
dies Of Cedar Falls finished a fatigue
dress for the Grcys last night. Much
praise is due them for their kind cf-
forts. The Captain dressed his men
up this afternoon and marched them
into Overman's large hall to hear a
discourse from Rev. l.. b. Ffeld, min
istcr of the Congregational Church of
this place. The gentleman surpassed
his usual efforts and the Greys were
highly pleased with the discourse.
MoNDAY.-Capt Smith brought out
his company at 10 A. NJ. and drilled
them for two hours. At l o'clock the
good people of Waverly played us a
surprise, by coming down en- masse, in
two and four horse teams to escort
some twenty of their boys to join the
company There were about three
hundred men, women and children.
After parading the streets, they stop
ped at the hotel to visit with the de-
parting boys. At half past 2, it was
announced that Capt Trumbull's com.
pany from Butler county were ap-
preaching the town. At nod and
two winks the Greys were ready to
receive them, which was done up
brown. After good time together,
Capt. I. and his company started for
Waterloo to join the remainder of
their company, the Greys cscorting
them out of town. At a o'clock the
Greys assembled to elect the officers
to command them during the war,
which resulted in the unanimous
choice of Capt. Smith as their leader.
Fitz Roy Sessions was elected lst
Lieutenant, and G. H. Mullarky, end
Lieutenant. Everything was unani-
nous. A meeting of the people was
called at o'clock for the purpose of
paying proper tribute of respect to
the Pioneer Greys. The chairman
presented Capt. Smith with $50, on
behalf of his friends here, to purchase
a sword and epaulettes The report
of the ladies was presented, by which
it appears that 100 fatigue uniforms
have been made, and shoes, stockings,
undershirts, SC. supplied to those who
needed them.
TUESDAY MoRNING.-The town is
iammed and crammed full of peo-
pie from distance, who have
come in to do honor to this occasion.
There cannot be less than 5000 pres
ent and all with hearts ovcrflowing
with good wishes and God speed for
the brave fathers, sons and brothers
who are going out to fight our beloved
country's battles. 1t would be impos-
sible for any feeble pen to describe
the parting scenes. Strong men who
were never suspected Of tenderness
or sensibility, wept like children.
The boys filed into their seats, filling
five passenger cars. As the train
moved away, never was heard in the
Cedar Valley such shout as there
went up from that vast multitude.
There were at least 1000 people at
the depot at Waterloo, waiting to see
Capt. Trumbull's company OIL, who
were going in the same train. This
company is los strong and composed
of some regular giants. One man is
six feet four inches in hight, and eight
more arc six feet tall! The ladies of
