72nd REGIMENT.

Col. r. P. BUcKLAND informs us that he has
been notified by the Adjutant- General of Ohio,
that the 72nd Regiment must be filled up ready
to march by the 18th of December next. Over
600 men have been reported at head quarters,
and about 100 others are known to have enlist
ed and will be in Camp in few days. In ad-
dition to these commissions have been issued for
raising two companies in Medina county, and a
company in Seneca county, from which there
have been no reports. 1t is expected that these
counties will furnish at least one company each
thus leaving about 100 or $50 men more to be
raised in this county to fill up the regiment.
Need we appeal to the young men of the
county to come forward at once, and fill up the
regiment. You are wanted now. Your coun-
try calls for you, and must have you. You are
wanted for the battle feld-to fight with sword
and sabre, and bayouet and rfc-to build for
tiications and dig entrenchments---to make long
marches, and to risk your lives in the great
struggle to defend and preserve the country of
your birth and your hopes.
Fighting men are wantcd-men strong of
frame, and great of soul The safety of our
homes-our happiness, security and prosperity
as people-the just pride we feel in having a
glorious Nation is worth preserving at all haz-
ards-requres us now in time of extreme per-
il, to labor and fight and stake our lives for our
Country, its unity, and the perpetuity of its
greatness, its power and its liberties.
Wanted-MES, true men and brave. Oul
Generals, now marching thousands to the field
want thousands more. Patriotic men--men
with their hearts in the right place, and who can
face danger in it's most terrific forms. Strong
men who love freedom and are willing to fight
and to die for a cause in which their own well
fare and that Of their posterity is involved.
Another such an opportunity to serve your
country may never offer. The regmental Off
GERS of the 72nd are worthy of your aid. They
are competent, patriotic and brave. Then join
the regment-ioin itn now. You are wanted inn
mediately. Delay is unnecessary and may
prove disastrous

The rIississIppI FIotiIIa.

Attention is generally being drawn TO
operations on the Mississippi with reference
to an important expedition down that
thoroughfare, which now seems TO be rap
idly approaching readiness for departure. :
The Chicago Journal of the 22d says of it:
without pretending to have any definite
knowledge as TO the future plans of the cam
paign in the west and southwest, but iudg-
ing from facts and indications, we think VIC
can safely state that very extensive expe-
Idilion is now preparing to sweep down the
Mississippi river. This is the object of re-
calling the troops of Gen. Fremont's late
army to St. Louis, and this is the object of
the gun boats that are building and arc
nearly ready at ST. Louis and Mound City,
and Of the heavy guns and ammunition that
have already reached and are continually
arriving at ST. Louis and Cairo. This also
is the object of now hurrying our Illinois,
Wisconsin, Town and Minnesota regiments
to Louisville and ST. Louis, aud as the arri-
val at Cairo, of 500 marines from the Poto-
mac, for the new gun-boats-m who have
heen practcing at guns for the past three
months. These facts aud indications, as
our readers can Judge must be designed for
an important river expedition that will soon
be made. We say soon, for tho reason that
winter is at hand, when tho river will be
frozen over, and the expedition must start
before the ice distractions set in."

Hints for our country Friends,

In the rural districts during the present
husking season, the best busk might be Sc
lected, which, split fine on hetchel or 9TH
erwise, and thoroughly dried, would bo Of
great use in our army hospitals, in the
form Of pillows of several sizes, half size
quarter size, and less, as supporters to wound
ed limbs. They would not retain heat like
feathers, and would therefore be better aud
less expensive. Tho selecting and prepsr.
ing the husk would afford pleasant recrca
ton to boys, and awaken their love of coun
try, while mothers and daughters could as
sist by making ticks and cases for them.

Whatever may be the opinion in regard

General IIaIIecl,,. inaugural.

General Halleck has inaugurated his ad-
mnistration in Missouri, by an act indicative
of calibro which does not promise any
great execution in the Department Of the
Mississippi He had not the courage to
face the popular consequences of reversing
Fremont's policy toward the slaves of rebels
and of instiluliDg the virtual protection Of
such slave property, so he ISLANDERS the
slaves, calls them spies, and orders them
rigdly excluded from our camps. It's re-
gardcd as considerably meaner to steal from
a negro than from a white man. 1t is pro.
portiouately meaner to slander negro
General Haleck may have right 10 drive
negroes into the ranks Of the enemy, that is,
if n military officer has the right 10 drive
bis allies into the ranks Of the enemy and
contribute to his own defeat but he should
do it like a man, and not attempt to sneak
out of the popular effect by silly SANDER
on the hapless negroes.
General Halleek of course does not ex.
pect anybody TO believe that story. Ne.
groes are governed by motives the same as
those Of fairer complexion. We can safely
rely on any class of beings being governed
by their interest. The fugitive slaves look
upon our armies as their friends until the
contrary conviction is forced upon them by
our hostility. The idea of their being spies
is contrary 10 nature. General Halleck
invented the theory as dodge. In his
moral weakness he is driven to sandcr
upon negroes, rs an excuse for his weak
military policy. As Mr.. Lincoln is wont to
observe 'tbere is nothing JOcksonian about
that" and it will not raise very high hopes
.of General Halleck's generalship. Gin.

How TO Cure Coughs, Colds, &c,

The winter is setting in wet and cold,
and thousands of poor soldiers will have
fearful colds and coughs. An army surgeon
told me that they needed a portable cough
medicine, and l recommended DR.. Lunt's
lozenges. l am as much opposed to patent
medicines rs you, but having tried these
lozenges, and having seen them thoroughly
tested, must do humanity the favor to
speak Of them. Brother Lunt is an timer
ant Methodist preacher, and does not adver-
tise as do some others, hence his medicine
is not generally known. The lozeuges are
composed of valuable medicinals, and arc
perfectly safe, which is more than can be
said of all cough lozeuges. A number Of
ministers have told me that no other mod
icine has ever helped them as have these
lozenges. Rev. w. R. GOODWIN.
