BULLETS LESS DANGEROUS THAN
DISEASE.

The Philadelphia Ledger says:
Recruits going to the war always talk
of their return with proyiso, that the
enemy's bullets do not prevent them
Yet it is an established fact that in mod :
ern campaigns the danger to life is
three to one greater from disease than
from the bullet. The British army ir
the Crimea lost three thousand SIX hun
dred and forty three out Of ninety four
thousand troops Of these only one
thousand seven hundred and sixty one
died of wounds But sixteen thousand
two hundred and ninety ight died of
disease at the seat Of war, and nearly
thirteen thousand were sent home on
account of sickness. Where one man
was under the surgeons hands for
wounds, twelve we're under the doctors S
for typhus fever, disentary, or some
other of the insufficient camping ar
rangements, or the dissipations incident
to crowded camp, in which men have
much idle time.
Seven thousand FIVE hundred French
soldiers were slain in battle; fifty thou
sand perished of disease, and sixty-ive
thousand more were discharged and sent
home from the seat of war, as inyalids.
In our Mexican war our army lost
nearly thirteen thousand men, while
quite as many were discharged for SEEK
ness. Only one thousand five hundred
and forty-eight men were killed, or died
of their wounds, in all the battles fought,
as numerous as they were. These facts,
while it should inspirit the soldiers in
battle, should also make them cautious
of their health when lying in camp, or
on long marches Good plain food eaten
at regular intervals, healthfui and anu
sing exercises, sufficient clothing to pro-
tect the body from the sudden changes
of weather, and the avoidance of all e1
cess in eating and drinking, especially
intox icating stimulants, will do much
to preserve the good health Of the SOL

rea. When in Washington, Rev.
Henry Ward Beecher was presented
with huge ring and staple, to which
the neero-who was found in the slave
pen, at Alexandria, when invested BY
Federal troops-was attached. John
C. Underwood, of Virginia, made the
presentation speech, in which he said:
Take it to the great School House of
Liberty, your own church of Brooklyn:
Show the enlightened, devoted, and
Christian people Of your charge, by this
sign, the great redemption which the
sons of the furitans are now working
out for the sons Of the old Cavaliers of
Virginia. Let it pass from Northern
hilltop to hilltop, over your great
plains and valleys, like the Gross CT the
Hermit, or the signal of the Highlander,
inspiring the brave defenders of liberty
to do and dare for our common country,
our time-honored Constitution. and our
beneficent Union with fervent pray
ers to our Heavenly Father for the
speedy coming Of that good time when
ours shall, indeed aud in truth, be the
! land of the free and the home Of the
| brave. As a citizen Of Virginia, sur
frender this trophy to your hands.

asa- The Nicholasville (Ky.) Del

nA-The Nicholasville (Ky.) Demo-
crat, edited by j. G. Welch, and printed
by Messrs. Hudson & Galbreath, was
mobbed few nights ago, by band of
cowardly, thieving secessionists, who
broke into the Office at midnight, when
they we'll knew that no one was present
to welcome their approach with "shoot-
ing stick" or two, as they deserved
The paper was one of the ablest Union
publications in the State, and its bold
and patriotic editor declares that if ne
cessary, he will die BY the flag of his
country The loyal men of kentucky,
if they do not desire their State to be,
like Virginia, united to the Southern
Confcderacy, in the style of tin pan to
dogs tail, had better instantly crush
out tho rebels.

Think OF It.

Think OF It.
There are still some people in the
North, they are now very scarce we be
Iicve, who do not believe the reported
outrages upon Northern men ana Union
men in the seeded States. Let such
persons, and all others as to that matter,
weigh the following from the Louisville
Journal Remember, leading paper
in slave State, warns one of the most
eminent and talented men in another
Slave State that he cannot go back home
except at the risk of his life:
Mr.. ETHERIDGE-We don't know
where Mr.. Etheridge is at this time, but
wherever he may be, we would warn him
Of the danger Of his returning to Ten
nessce. We could give him facts which
would convince him that he can return
only at the imminent risk of his life.
Instructions have certainly been given
by Gen. Pillow that he shall be hung,
or shot, or otherwise killed at the first
opportunity. He has been watched for
in all directions Men were hunting for
him last night in the cars, near the Ten
neSsee line.
These things are true, and their truth
could easily be proved.-LoHic0i1F

Religion for the Time.

A writer in the Congregationaztst de-
scribcs the religion which the times re-
quire, in the following sensible and
pointed language:
We want religion that goes into the
family and keeps the husband from
being spiteful when the dinner is late,
and keeps the dinner from being late
keeps the wife from fretting when the:
husband tracks the newly washed floor
with his muddy boots, and makes the
husband mindful of the scraper and the.
door mat-keeps the mother patient
when the baby is cross, and keeps the
baby pleasant--amuses the children as
we'll as instructs them-wins as we'll ae
governs~projects the honey moon into
the harvest moon, and makes the happy
hours like the eastern fig treo, bearing
in its BOSOM at once the beauty of tho
tender blossom and the glory of the
ripened fruit. We want religion that
bears heavily not only on the exceed
ing sinfulness of sin, but on the ex-
ceeding rascality of lying and stealing
"a religion that banishes small meas
ures form the counters: small baskets
from the stalls, pebble from the cotton
bags, clay from paper, sand from sugar,
chicory from coffee, otter from butter,
bee juice from vinegar, alum from Bread
strychnine from wine, water from milk
cans, and buttons from the contribution
box.

HOW 1T CAME ABOUT.

She sat in the shade of the portico,
Busy with some sweet task;
The Spanish eyes and the forehead low
Hid by the airy mask
Of the dusky hair that had ripled down
As he sprang DER the fcwer-bed-
In sooth, she had purposed to frame frown.
But she framed a smile instead.
lie took her hand in that certain way,
More eloquent than words;
No sound fell into the silent day,
Save the chirp of the orchard birds:
Her work lay close by her side unscanned,
The book on her knee unread
In sooth, she had purpesed toloose her hand,
But he caught the other instead
And when with the wealth of rosy June,
The bees to their hives had got,
He leaned through the lull of sleepy noon,
And whispered a-you kno,o achaa
She swayed from his earnest eyes, and low
She buried her blushing head
In sooth, she had purposed to say, ''No no!''
But she murmured '.Yes! instead

Getting their Eyes Open.

Getting their Eyes Open.
The following article from the New
Orleans Bee shows how our Southern
neighbors were deceived in their expec-
tations Of divided North in case of
war between the two sections of the
country. The Bee no doubt feels bet
ter after this open acknowledgment,
that "thousands of Southern men were
completely deceived in this matter. -
The Bee says:
awe plead guilty to the charge of
having in times past talked confidently
of and trusted implicitly in Northern
conservatism, The fact is, the professed
advocates of that particular isns ex-
pressed themselves habitually as warmly
in favor of tie South, secuted so 1oftily
the idea of coercion, and advocated with
so much apparent sincerity a system of
Cancellation and concession, that thou
sands Of Southern men were completely
deceived. There is no doubt whatever,
that an opinion prevailed among US
that if Lincoln should attempt to make
war on the South, the conservative ele-
1nent in the North would oyerwhelm
his administration, and by timely di-
versions would extend aid and succor to
US. 1t was thought that thirty thou
sand att Lincoln maj rity in New York
City would act substantially with the
South, or at all events would exhibit its
genuine sympat by with that section by
declining to take up arms in behalf of
the Federal Government. There were
not wanting among US, too, numbers of
shrewd and experienced citizens who
calculated largely on the commercial
ties and identity Of interests between
the South aud the West, and who be-
lieved that ultimately Ohio, Indiana,
and other States in that quarter would
be glad to unite their destinies with
those of a Southern Confederacy. How
the first blast of the Northern bugle
has blown away these bubbles of the
imagination.
