Latest Northern News.

We are indebted to q friend for S, Louis Un ion of the 5th inst, the latest date we have seen From it we gather the following;
 "Gen. Lew. Wallace left Cincinnati on Iridly to join his division of the army. 1t is at He lena, or some point below, having gone down the river tc join Gen. Curtis some da!s s.nce.'
 The federal government have determined to place 10 iron plated gunboat', carrying two guns each, on the Ohio, to protect the river against guerrillas. The war in Kentucky must be pretty warm.
 The state of affairs produced in Missouri by Gov. Gambe's order to enroll the militia became so se rous that the bogus governor had to modify and explain bis order. Disloyal persons, he says, will not be required or permitted to do duty in the Mis- sour militia.
 DRAFTING DETERMINED rroN AT TIE NORTH.
 Volunteering at the North is an uphill business The drqtf, aiter much hesitation anl many doubts, has been finally determined upon. The Yankees are getting tired of the war At all events, they are getting tired of fighting reJels.

A Mr. Colin Mckenzie applies for the bodies, which are placed in walnut collins on whicl are plates whereon are engraved the names. ages and deaths.

Stirring Scene

A correspondent of the Chicago Tribune
who accompanied.an expedition from HEX
man to obion, on the Mississippi, tells Of this
scene:
st the ford Of tie Obion we come TO Davis
Mill, owned by large hearted Union man. a
native Tennesseean. It was an inspiring sight
to witness the Old mans emotion upon our
arrival. He received US with a shout and a
hurrah, and away his hat went flying in the
ar The old man with his gray locks float
ing in tie wind, was perfectly wild with ex-
citement. Tears chased each other rapidly
down his furrowed cheeks and he insisted on
embracing every man he met. He peremp-
torily ordered his negro man to shut down
the mill gate. No more grinding and taking
Of toll that day. Tn the excess Of his graf
itude he offered Col Hogg two thousand
bushels Of wheat and as many pounds of
bacon as a freewnl offering to the cause. For
over two months he had eaten and slept III
his dingy, dusty mill, never having dared to
visit his loved ones at home. The old
woman must see the Federal cavalry" He
mounted horse and promptly returned with
his wife bearing aloft the glorious old banner
Of the Union. She had concealed that flag
under her house for year, and though often
sought for by the rebels, she had managed to
prevent its capture.

HAIRY MOORE,

ALL my lite long I had known Mary Moore
Our mothers were old playmates and first
cousins. Ny first recollection is Of young
gentleman in turkey red frock and morocco
shoes, rocking cradle, in which reposed a
smny-haired, blue-eyed baby, not quite a year
old. That young gentleman was I, myself
Harry Church that blue-eyed baby was Mary
Moore.
Later still, saw myself at the little red
school house, drawing my painted sled up to
the door, and arranging my overeoat upon it.
that Mary might. ride home. Many a black
eye have I gained on such occasions, for other
boys liked her besides me, and she, I am afraid
was something Of a firt, even in her pinaiore
How daintly she came tripping down the steps
when called her nanel How sweetly her
blue eyes looked up to me from the envious
folds Of her winter hood How gaily her
merry laugh rang out when by dint Of super
human exerti0n, I kept her sled before the
rest, and let her stand upon the steps exul-
tingly to see them all go by. The fairy laugh!
No one but Mary could let her heart lie up so
on her lipsl followed that laugh up from
my days Of childhood, till grew an awkward,
blushing youth: I followed it through the
heated noon Of manhood and now, when the
frosts Of age are silvering my hair, and many
children climb to my knee and call me faith
er, find that the memories Of youth are
strong, and that, grey hairs and all, I am fol-
lowing that music still.
When was fifteen, the first great sorrow
Of my life came upon me. I was sent away
TO a western school, and was obliged to part
with Mary. We were not to see each other
for three long yearsl This, to me, was ike a

thought Of Mary Moore, it was to imagine
how I would dazzle and beWilder her with my
good looks and wonderful attainments, never
thinking that she might dazzle and bewilder
me stin more. I was a sad puppy, I know;
but as youth and good looks have fed, trust
I may be believed when say that self-eon-
ceit has left me also.
An advantageous proposal was made to me
at this time, and, accepting it. I gave up all

Music for Hogs,

The correspondent of The Cincinnati Times,
with Gen. Mitchelrs 1mmand is responsible
for the following yarn:
The hogs in this part of the country arc
musically inclined, andssn come up to break
fast to the tune of Dixie" On every plan
tation, the Oldest "darzey" has the honor Of
playing music to the hogs for about an hour
every morning, and from the very moment
when he first commences, till the end of the
piece, the shrill, piercing notes Of the hogs are
heard coming from all directions, and blend
ing with the music Of the darkey, from the
very full grown sow to the smallest Of the lit
ter; these notes are audible for a mile distant
I can never forget when first witnessed the
scene. and for the life Of me I could not tell
or make out what it meant.
I was on my way from ShelbyyiIle, Tenn,
to Huntsville, Ala, and being alone, I started
very early, so as to overtake the army, who
were a day in advance of me. Riding up a
very steep hill, heard a sharp sound, and
thought it must be a locomotive. At this time
I was surrounded by trees on either side.
The sound continued. Finally, heard such
a terrible rumbling in the woods among the
trees that I put spur to my horse and started.
of as fast as I could go, and the further and
more swiftly sped the greater the rumbling.
At last I came to the serious conclusion that
I was "played out, and must surely fall into
the hands of the Rebels.
halted, and in less than FIVE minutes saw
hogs of every grade, color and species, making
the tallest kind of tracks down the hills to-
wards where the music came from. There
were black hogs, white hogs, yellow hogs,
speckled hogs and gray hogs-aI running in
one direction. I paused for moment and
surveyed the scene, and, finally, followed in
the train, and as I descended, there stood be-
fore me q nigger, as black as ebony, blowing
away on an old horn, and surrounded by at
least five hundred attentive listeners in the
shape Of hogs. As approached, the old dar-
key saluted me with Good morning, Mas
sa."
"Wel, my friend" remarked, "what in
creation are you blowing that Internal old horn
for?"
Old Ebony opened his wide mouth, display
ing for the same time as fine a set of teeth as
I ever looked at and laughed as loud as he
could, and then said:
"Massa, you'se bein, from the Mort, where
none Of these things is gwine on"
I answered, YES but what does it all
mean 2"
"You see, massa, responded the old man,
d" all those hogs thar, before commenced play
in thar, wasn't one hog here, but when first
bIowed this horn they all started from every
part of de woods and come up here. Ise at
dis bisinis for de Lord knows how many years,
and has brought in millions ofhogs with dis
music. set to play every morning at day
light alongside dis fence and den stop for one
hour, and at de end ob de hour all massa's
hogs are in from de woods. Ise a good lnu-
sic man, massa, is"
Il then asked him what tune he liked best
and played most to rally the hogs2" he re-
sponded, "Dixie." Well, I thought to my
self, can it be possible that the Southern chiv-
airy and Southern hogs march to the same
tune?

Hon. Amos Kendall on General Hunters Order
The Hon. Amos Kendall, who has 50 nobly
and ably vindicated the rights Of the National
Government against Secession, sends the fol-
lowing letter to the National Intelligencor:
GENERAL HUNTER's LATE ORDER.
WASHINGTON, May IS, 1862.
70 the Editors orEe National Lqtelligeneer;
My attention has been called to a Washing
ton letter in the Philadelphia Press in which
the writer, after quoting a passage from one
Of my letters published in your paper, says:
"Thus it viii seem that even the veteran
Democrat, Amos Kendall, while oIjectiug the
course Of the AboHtiouists, is entitled to the
credit of having made the proposition which
General Hunter has thus practically carried
out"
Now, I should consider myself a traitor to
my country, if I were to approve the late or
der of General Hunter purportirg to set free
all the slaves within his military district While
exposing to the Southern rebels the gulf which
is yawning before them, the conception never
entered my brain that any military command
er, or the President himself could constitu-
tionally, by general order or proclamation.
cOn6Scate their property and emancipate their
slaves, or that such an object could be effect
ed otherwise than by conviction for treason
by due course of law in the courts Of justice.
In the order OF General Hunter I see tie es-
sence Of military despotism, utterly subyer-
sive of the Constitution We are fighting to
maintain; and it is deplorable that the Presi-
dent does not, by the enforcement Of a gener-
al line of policy repress these assumptions OF
power by his subordinates. Every such as
sumption unrebuked by him exposes him and
Congress itself 10 the charge of hypocrisy and
perfdy in their announcements Of the purpose
for which the war is waged; it discourages
the loyal men in all the slaveholding States,
and in an equal degree encourages theIeading
rebels; it will cost the North thousands of
lives and millions of money; it alarms con
.servative men everywhere, and makes them
begin to think their own liberties in danger;
it strengthens dis-loyal men in loyal States,
and enables them to embarrass the Govern
ment in its legitimate operations. In fhe,
there is but one safe course for the Govern
ment to pursue and that is to disregard all
party affiliations and adhere firmly to the pro
gramme originally announced, viz: The
prosecution Of the war for the sole object Of
preserving the Constitution and the Union
wish the rights OF the States intact, to be fol-
lowed be peace as soon as those objects can
be attained" Ifthere be not Grmness enough
in the Administration to do this, we are on
sea of Revolution, with scarcely a hope Of ev-
er again reaching the haven Ofunity and peace.
AMOS KENDALL.
