Of the s'Excelsior Premium Grain

D. Now, that so many of the workers
ofthe County are serving their country in
the camp and On the battle fields, those
who aid in supplying their places in the
harvest fields, by the introduction of la
bor saving machines, are likewise doing
patriotic service to their country
From all sections of the State there is
an earnest call for laborers, Never was
Tabor more in demand than at present
$50 great, in fact, is the demand, that it
will be extremely difficult to save the
golden grain, now ripening into the
harvest And in this scarcity of la
borers, an unusual demand has sprung
up for agriculturli implements. We
can assure all who have occasion to pur-
chase, that they will find Mr.. Ellis a
reliable man, and his machines Just
what he represents them to be.

--- The Government and loyal citi-
aens are compelled, for humanity's sake
to feed the thousands of starving
wretches in the South who have been
ruined by the rebels. Wherever the
rebel armies have been, they have de-
stroyed whatever property they did not
consume, and then left the starving pop.
ulation to die Of hunger, or be support
ed by the benevolencs of the Govern
ment and people they were attempting
to destroy. At New Orleans the rebel
authorities deliberately burned and de-
stroyed more than ten millions of dol
lars worth Of property, and then left
their dupes to starve, or be fed by the
United States. And so it is everywhere

A recent visitor to Norfolk was as
sured by Union man who had been
imprisoned for sig months by the Reb-
els, despoiled of his property, and sepa-
rated from his family, that he and the
loyal men of his acquaintance in the
city were in favor of a stringent confs-
cation law. He pointed to store full
of goods which was closed, the owner
having gone to Richmond with the army
and asked by what principle the prop
erty Of that man who was one of the
blood -thirstiest prosecutors of Unionists
in the South was to be spared? Rebel
prisoners now here said in conversation

Our contemporary, the Courier, o.
yesterday, in long editorial eulogizins
President Davis, whom it calls "oul
Moses" makes the following assertion
"Yet we have been reliably informed
that men of high official position among
us-men of good intentions, but of mis-
taken and misguided patriotism-are
sowing the seeds of discord broadcast in
our midst by preaching a crusade
against President Davis, and calling for
a general convention of the Confederate

Here it is put forth that there are
men of "high official position amongst
us'' who are preaching a Crusade
against President Davis, and calling for
a general convention of the Confederate
States to depose him and create mill
tary dictator in his place!" The Cour-
ier is our author for the grand revolu-
ton it discloses. We know no other
That President Dauis Is an incubus on
oar cause ace do not doubt. Although
carefully covered over with the mantle
of secresy by Congress, enough has
been disclosed by stern realities to STOW
his total incompetency to govern the
affairs of the Confederacy. He has lost
the confidence of both the army and the
people, and, if an election to morrow
was to come off for the Presidency, we
do not believe that he would get the
vote of single State in the Confederacy.
Yet we have seen nowhere any opposi-
ton to him advocated or proposed,
other than as such as the Constitution
clearly authorizes. If the provisio nal
Congress had done it's duty-if the pres
ent Congress would do its duty-Presi-
dent Davis could be readily driven into
a course of efficiency. This is all that
we have seen advocated.
But if President Davis is to be treated
as ''our Moses we really do not see
the use of Congress. The military die
tator the Courier seems so much to ab-
hor, is practically upon us. The sooner
Congress is abolished the better

On the morning of the lth inst, at the res
idence of Edward D. Mansfield near Morrow,
| in the 26th year OF her age, ELEANOR WORTH
1HGToN, wife of Daniel E. Smith, and daughter
of Charles R. Pomeroy, Esq, of Pomeroy, o.
| Gin. Gazette.
The death of Mrs Smith cast deep gleom
over our entire community, where she was so
well known, and so much beloved-where
''none knew her but to love her--none named
her but to praise" She endeared herself to
many by her unselfsh devotion to the "dear
ones at home" Since her mothers death, she
has been daughter, mother, sister, in her love,
her care her counsel to the younger members
of the family; and her memory will remain a
guiding spirit to them, until they meet her
where there is no parting.
The poor received her especial sympathy and
attention. Faithfully did she obey the injunc-
tion-ovisit the fatherless and widows in their
affections, and many desolate homo has been
cheered by her presence.
May the Lord comfort the husband, for
whose loss all words of sympathy are vainl-
May He sustain the family in their great be-
reavement and guard and guide the infant
child for whose life she gave up her own, and
impart to it its mothers christian grace, her
charity, her love. And may we all be the bet
ter prepared to acquiesce in this seemingly
hard Providence, by the reflection that "Death
is but kind and welcome servant, who un-
locks with noiseless hand life's fower-encircled
door to show US those We love-" K.

Additional Particulars of the Battle o.
Cress Keys.


FRONT ROYAL, June Is.
The results of the Port Republic bat
tie, on Monday, are now ascertained as
near as possible.
Many thought missing are doubtless
badly wounded, and necessarily left on
the field In our retreat before superior
mum bers. Many missing will doubtless
return.
The force engaged was mostly west
ern regiments, who fought heroically, a
foe more than five times their number
for four hours, and then retiring in Or
der, except one or two regiments, which
were surrounded and took to the noun
tains
The 7th Indiana did nobly. Col
Lamon repeatedly charged the rebels,
driving them like sheep. They left
Fredericksburg 800 strong, and arrived
at Port Republic with 500-remainder
left along route, sick aud disabled
After the fight the regiment numbered
only 140. The 29th and Both Ohio
lost heavily.

ing Cotton.

ing Cotton.
In convers tion with son Of our
large New England manufacturers, we
learn that Indian cotton is getting much
in favor with them, and some of them
have sent large orders out for this cotton,
preferring it at the present prices to
American. They regard it more favor
ably than the English spinners, since
they have had experience in working it.
As to the burning of the cotton at the
South, our manufacturers consider it
will operate benefcially to them if one
half OF the crop ID burned. The stocks
Of goods on hand are so large that there
is no doubt of an ample supply of cotton
to meet the consumption for many
months to come, and the manufacturers
will be benefited rather than injured by
having the staple come forward for the
remainder Of the year slowly and at
high prices. Some of oar shrewdest
and largest manufacturers are we'll con
vinced of this, and as far as their inter
est is concerned, would not be sorry to
see two miiion bales destroyed in the
planting region during the coming sum
mer. The consumption and the produe
tion of goods are both expected to be
very light for several months.
