that the U. S. steamer, Harriet Lane, ia At
tempting to force an entrance into Charles
ton harbor was fred into from one of the bat
teries, and was so seriously crippled that be-
ing unable to put TO sea, she surrendered to

Corn AS A FULTON a certain portion of
the Illinois prairies corn is being used as fuel
instead of coal, and is found an excellent
substitute In the district referred to, corn
is 13a cents per bushel, and coal is IL to Il
cents. Not only is the difference in price In
favor of the corn, but bushel OF it gives
more heat than bushel of coal.

The Presidents Message.

We feel that we need make our readers no
apologies for giving in cur columns the Presi-
dents message entire 1t is a peculiar crisis in
our National history, when we are all looking
with interest to the head of the Government for
those principles and measures that will be
adopted to guide on our Ship of State through
the perils that now frown SO alarmingly around
it.
The message is frank outspoken document,
free from political pettyfoggng or special
pleadings, and is evidently dictated by spirit
of undisguised patriotism, and firm and con-
scientious purpose to maintain the Constitu-
ton, and enforce the laws. Itseems to us, that
the pulsations Of hopeful patriotism will be
stronger and freer throughout the country en-
reading it's decided and manly utterances. 1t
throws light on the policy of the Government
in regard to Fort Sumter, and the course pur'
sued cannot fail to meet with general approval
among the real friends of the Government, and
gives us the gratifying assurance that the Ma
tional defence is to be prosecuted with the
requisite strength and vigor to suppress treason,
and overcome the present formidable rebellion.
Our readers will of course give the document
perusal for themselves, and we trust it will
nerve them to more vigorous maintenance OF
our sacred cause, and enable us all, in the final
words of the message, to " renew our trust in
God and go forward without fear and with man
ly hearts ts-Mcssenger.

Letter from Woodstock.
MARRIAGE AT QUECHEE-oUR COUNTRY

Bro. WEBSTER The circumstances connect
ed with the marriage of Capt Seaver, Of the
Vermont Third Regiment, Indicate that the pat
riotic flame of '76 still burns undimme1. He
was married in Church, in his military dress.
and before this will meet the eyes of your read
ers, he expects to bid adieu to the green hills OF
Vermont, leaving behind lovely and accom-
plished bride, and start with his Regiment tor
the seat of war He speaks Of no sacrifices
but cheerlully unclasps his hand from the mar
rage grasp to take the sword and turns FROM
the bridal altar to the camp, and, perhaps, ere
long the battle field. With equal patriotism
and devotion the young vile yields up the hu<-
band of her heart, for her country's defence.
This is the spirit of '76 inherited by the chill
dren of revolutionary parents, and is but an il
Iustration of the fame that burns upon the al
tar of patriotic hearts through the entire North
While this spirit prevails in firm reliance up
on the God of battles, we may dare to prophe-
sy that no Rebel hand, though backed by
swarming thousands, burning with hate and
fierce to destroy, shall ever overturn our Gov
ernment, or pluck down the strong banner Of
the free.
But let us never forget that with all the cour-
age and devotion of patriot hearts, and strength
of patriot hands, our only hope is in that God
in whose Almighty hand is natonal destiny
! Then, while we thank God for the brave defend
ers of our country, who rally from town and
| city, mountain and hill, plain and valley, let
| Christians at homo rally to the holy altars of
prayer, and present to Him our nations inter-
ests and perils, her rulers and soldiers, until cur
beloved country, oar ~ho7c country shall emerge
from the fearful strife with union unbroken
lustre undimmed, and strength unimpaired :;
with Jehovah her God Ills shield her defence,
His hand her guide. A. L. +.
