THE LATE CAPT. WARD. U. s. N.

Captain Ward, who was unfortu-
nately killed in a reconnaissance at
Matthias Point on the 27th of June,
was born in the year 1906, in the city
of Hartford, Connecticut. On the 4th
Of March. 1928, he first entered the
United States service, sailing as mid
shipman, under Commodore M'Do-
nough, in the frigate Constitution.
After serving faithfully for four years,
under the above Commodore, he was
promoted to the position of Lieu
tenant, and was for some time at
tached to the Mediterranean squadron.
Many years Of his life were spent on
the coast of Africa. He served also
in the Gulf as commander of the
U. 5. Steamer Vixen indeed, nearly
all of his naval life was spent on the
ocean: he had served some sixteen
years at sea and only nine on shore.
He held for time very responsible
professorship in the Naval School in
Annapolis, and still later was placed
in command of the receiving ship
North Carolina, lying at the Navy
Yard. This position he held for near,
ly four years, and while in it made

into the large parlor in the right wirg
of the house ; it was perfectly spen-

carpet, a nice piano, fine library of
miscellaneous books, rich sofas, elc-
giant chairs, with superior needle
work wrought bottoms, what-nots in
the corners, loaded with articles of
luxury and taste, and refinement, and
upon mahogany ccntre-table lay a
Bible and lady's portrait. The last

Albany Regiment stretched on tho

been carried, and eight of them NOR

the sight was dreadful. l cried like
a boy, and so did many others. l
Immediately thought of my decanter
of brandy, took a tin cup from a SOL

filled it (the cup with water from a
canteen, and from one poor boy to

pale and Guivering lips the invigorat-

fellows looked at me as they saw, by

officer and commander had become to
them the kind and tender-hcarted
woman, by doing for them woman's
holy duty. One strong fellow, wound-

Lieutenant General Winfield Scott.

The present crisis was essential to
the full perfection of Gen. SCOTS fame.
Had he died a twelvemonth since, his
tory might have classed him as
mere successful soldier. That he will
now 60 down to postcrity with no
name between his and Washington's
is certain. His earl y career was an
unexampled success. Though he was
bred a lawyer and not a soldier, his
first campaign as captain of volun-
teer artillery developed the mettle
that was in him he rose, without
patronage, without friends, without
money. Or favor, from grade to grade,
winning each step with his sword on
the battlefield, until he was q Major
General in the United States Army at
the age of twenty.eight. This was
forty-seven years ago--when few who
read these lines we're born. How hon.
orably and uscfully this long stage of
forty.seven years has been spent by
him in the service of his country, no
history fails to recount. And now
his long career Of greatness is being
fifty closed by the noblest and most
splendid ofhis achievements. Itmust
never be forgotten that when the loyal
people of the nation were sleeping, in
October last, Winfield Scott foresaw
the present war, foretold it to the Bu-
chanan Cabinet, and showed how the
rebellion might be crushed in the bud
by a few very simple precautions. 1t
was not his fault that the hoary imbe-
cilc who then disgraced the Presiden-
tial chair nursed discomfort into re.
bellion, and sedition into open war
But Providence orders all for the best

The Young Volunteers Farewell.
By j. II. ELLIOT.

Come up to my little chamber, mother,
Come and bless me before | sleep,
lis the last night III be here. you know,
And it will do me good to weep
l have said good-bye to the rest, mother,
have parted with all but you,
And the great hot tears fell thick and fast,
But the words that we spoke were few.
And nv heart aches with the parting, mother
" God bless you" was all that they said,
With quivering lips, and wistful eyes,
As though were already dead.
So come to my little chamber mother,
AS you used to come long ago,
When the twilight shades were gathering,
And the west was all aglow
l want you to pray with me now, mother.
With your arms wound around me tight,
Pray God to protect and keep me safe,
And to make me brave in the fight.
This war is a horrible thing, mother,
| shuddcr to think of it so,
That visions of blood sweep past my brain,
Till my soul seems flooded with woe.
But my country calls for me now, mother,
Ii calls for me almost by name,
Anu Cdifhot stay at nome IN peace,
When her tlag is trlmplcd in shame.
| shall fight to the very death, mother,
For our cause is righteous, know,
shall fight till the Stars aud Stripes once more
Float rs pure and spotlcss as snow.
So pray to God with your whole soul, mother,
As you used in the days gone by
And it will not shame nv manhood now,
If lean on your breast and cry
Ii l come back TO you again. mother,
You II be glad | went to the fight,
For yictor's crown upon my brow,
Will answer your prayer tonight.
If fall on the field of battle, mother,
You will know that | died for the right,
And your heart will be glad while you weep,
When you think OF our goodbye, tonight.
Now here in my little chamber, mother,
With my head pillowed ON your breast,
I'll whisper my last goodbye to you,
Aud prayerfully go to my rest.
I'm off with the early sunrise, mother,
l shall leave you all asleep
There are stirring times ahead for us all,
have no more time to weep.

many friends. At last the troubled
state of the country demanded the
service and experience of such officers
as Captain Ward, and he placed him
self at the command Of the Govern
mcnt. Approaching his abilities,
they placed him in command of the
steam tlotilla at that time fitting out.
1t was placed in commission on the
10th of May. He had hardly arrived
in Chesapeake Bay when he made an
attack on rebel battery, silencing it
and driving the soldiers away. Since
that time he had proved himself to be
one Of the most able and energetic of.
ficers that we had, fearing no danger,
and placing those under him in none
that he would not gladly lead them
through.

Crew of the Privateer Savannah.

The Captain of the Privatcer Savan-
nah calls himself 7. Harrison Baker.
lie says that he was born in Philadel-
phia, and is now 81 years old. He is
tall, full bearded, by no means a re-
pulslve looking man, and was neatly
dressed in suit of blue flannel. lie
has lived in Charleston for a long
time, and has "foIlowed the sea-
more or less for fifteen years. He is
great on prccedents. Everything that
he has done has been, to use his own
phrase, as privateers usually do"
John Harleston is the first officer.
lie is South Carolina man, twenty
eight years old and says he is not
sailor nor does he look like one, but
appears as he says, like a man
brought up in business delicate
rather gentlemanly looking
man.
The sailing master, Henry c. How
land, is North Carolina man, is
twenty-cight years old, and sailor.
The purscr of the Savannah, C. S.
Passailaigue, is young South Caro-
linian, "only nineteen years old,7 a
decidedly good-looking wcll-behaved
young fellow who has been mailing
clerk and assistant book k-keeper in the
Charleston Mercury office. This is
his first, and it is safe to say last
cruise as purser of a privatecr.
The officers of the Savannah will
compare very favorably with the pris-
oners. They were a "hard.lookinr
set" was the natural descriptive
phrase applied to thcm-and despica-
bic rather than desperate. Nor did
their captain have a very exalted
opinion OF their seamanship or cour-
age. We give almost verbatim (omit-
ing his terse Saxon phrases) his
official account of their conduct during
he brief but brilliant engagement
With the Perry:
" 1t was about four o'clock in the
afternoon when we first saw the Per-
y she gave chase, and at 8 p. NJ. |
was within half mile of us; she
opened fire, and when the shot began
TO fall pretty thick around us, my men
slowed themselves away some where,
God only knows where | don't. Only
me man and my officers stood by me
he rest were dreadfully scared in
lalf an hour after the Perry first fired,
surrendered. And here | am"

Major General John C. Fremont,

Public fancy points to Gen. Fremont
as one of the most probable heroes of
the campaign just begun. He is
known to possess almost unrivalled
qualifications for the command he has
just obtained. His campaign in Cali
tornia was one of the most brilliant
military operations in our history.
He is believed to be thorough soldier.
theoretical and practical. His energy,
rapidity of combination, and daring,
are notorious. He has potent incen-
tives to develop whatever may be in
him for he must vindicate the judg-
mcnt of the million or more citizens
who desired to make him President
in 1856. We are inclined to believe
he will be found the right man in the
right place.

Reinforcements for Canada.

The Liverpool Daily Post, which is
a little facetious on what it calls "the
very civil war in America refers to
Mr.. Russel's letters from the South.
and says: a conviction NAV he
traced i'll them that there is no hope
of the South making any real fight
against the North. 1t is very evident,
too, from the gingerly way in which
the two parties deal with each other,
that they even yet scarcely consider
each other enemies. 1t is quite possi-
BILE that if our the British Govern
ment, persist in their irritant policy.
of which the engagement Of the Great
Eastern to convey the troops to Cana
da is another example, the Union may
be rehabiltated, and all family quar-.
rels patched for the sake of resentinr
our interference" Here is an English
journal Of high character confessing,
as much in sorrow as in anger, that
the policy Of the British Government
towards US has been irritant, and that
the transmission of additional troops
to Canada--a step taken, the Times
says, to protect British North Ameri-
ca from assaults or inyasions from the
United Statcs-is only continuing
part of the "irritant policy" in qucs-
tion. This may be borne in mind by
some journalists who affect to think
that there is nothing mischievous nor
threatening in the increase of the
British army in Canada, at this crisis.
The United States Government, how
ever, is investing and strengthening
the Notifications at Rouse's Point and
other places on the Canadian frontier,
as a precautionary measure of
course. But there is apprehension
that too many precautionary measures
on each side may lead to aggressire
measures by and by.

THE METROPOLITAN GENERALS.

The attacks of the New York Times
and Tribune npon General Scott for
not pushing forward our troops and
giving battle to the rebels on their
own chosen ground, are utterly reck-
less and shameless. If not the legit-
innate offspring of ignorance, these
assaults are dictated by reasonable
desire to give aid and comfort to the
enemy by inOlving our forces in de-
feat. We charitably set down tho
vaticinations of the New York editors
to ignorance. Their crude disposi-
tions upon military movements have
made them the laughing stock of mill
itary men. Fortified with military
dictionary, they discuss the move
ments Of the Government and criticise
what they assume to be the plans of
the commanding General with pre-
sumptuos egotism. They move ar
mics with stroke of the pen, and
win battles with equal facilty.-Boston
