without a guiver ofa muscle, or the
tingle of q nerve. She was con-
stantly at his bedside, administer
ing consolation and whispering
words Of comfort in his ear
smoothing his pillow, cooling his
burning brow, and quietly pointing
him to q physician who healed the
.1cprosy and raised the dead. No
war-tfained veteran ever strobe
over the field of battle with more
courage than that meek woman
displayed in the presence Of that
dread messenger of death, in whose
grasp Col. Meredith lay struggling
for life. The most skillful physi-
clans were doing all that mortal
man could do to save the COL, but
still he continued to sink. When
all hopes of his recovery had failed,
he turned to his angel wife for
counsel. She kneeled down by his
bedside and prayed as only a Chris
tian wife could pray for a repentant
dying husband, and with his dying
blessing upon her head, and his
contrite soul imploring the for
giveness of his sins, he died in the
arms of his devoted, sainted wife.

much of what is known by the city
minister, is just as we'll known by
the great bulk of his congregation;
and they have both the means and
the facility of acquiring knowledge,
which the people at large have not;
consequently, the preachers for the
people, are placed in circumstances,
in which a degree of general infor-
nation on their part is required,
which cannot, in the nature of
things, be more necessary for city
ministers, than for those in the
country. If town and city minis
ters would turn out and labour as
preachers for the people, as well as
ministers of select parties, they
would, in that case, needthe same a.
mount ofinformation as the preach
ers for the people ought to carry
about with them, as their intellec-
tual stock.

TO Tie Editors Of Tie Enquirer:


SIR Inclosed you will find a
cursed Abolition document-it will
speak for itself-which the negro
worshipers are distributing among
the soldiers in large quantities.
Comment, if tits worth comment
and of course it isl leave you to
make. If 1 had time, I would
write a long article on the subject,
but have not. as I am but a private
end that is the reason I got the
document. Prlvates are supposed
to have no sense, or just sense
enough to be made to believe and
do anything; but the paper got into
the wrong hands this time. And,
further, I will say or ask, if such
papers are allowed to be distributed
among the soldiers so profusely.
when will this war end? This
much l would like to say to them;
I am not fighting to free negroes;
and if they want them freed, let
them do the fighting themselves
I will not. Iwould as soon shoot a
real Abolitionist as a Secesh. l
consider that they are as much the
instigators of this war as any man
in the South, and even more SO;
yet they claim to be Union men,
Such Union men ought to be in
purgatory. They now boldly de-
clare their purpose, and are dis
tribu ting their internal trash
among the ignorant soldiers, as
they suppose; but there are some
of them sharp enough to see what
they are driving at.
l am a native of Ohio, but not an
Abolitionist, by any means; and |
am fighting to put down rebellion,
not to free negroes. A SOLDIER,
Forty-fourth Ohio Regiment.

Who is VIM. A. Crofut?

The New Albany Qnd.) Ledge,
in speaking of VIM. A. CRoFFUT,
the individual who reported the
conversation between the President
and General LANE, published in the
New York Tribune, and which has
been since contradicted, says:
"This fellow Croffut is an
habitual liar and slanderer. On
one occasion he was whipped with
in an inch of his life by Captain
Harris, of the Upper Mississippi
steamer Gray Eagle, for slander.-
He was also run out of a Minnesota
town for his ultra Abolitionism."
If this is CRoFFUT's character,
not much reliance is to be placed
in his statements.

The, Democracy of Michigan.

The Democrats of Michigan will
meet in State Convention, at De-
troit, on the 5th of March, for the
purpose of nominating candidates
for State offices. The Detroit Free
Press in most cordially endorsing
this action, remarks, after noticing
the attempt in progress to con-
struct an emancipation party:
The Democracy, therefore, are
forced into the field. They must
raise the standard around which
the supporters of the Crittenden
resolution, alllovers Of the Consti-
tuition and the Union, as establish
ed by the fathers of the Republic,
can rally. 1t is not a matter of
choice, alone, with them, but OF
positive duty, that they shall move.
They have q country to save-free
institutions for white men to pre-
serve. 1t is their duty to enforce
good faith to those shareholders
who have staked their lives and
fortunes in the Federal cause, to
prevent the war from being prosti-
tuted to political ends, and thereby
to lead all good men in the path Of
exact loyalty. As they have been
forced into the field, so they must
remain there VIGOROUSLY, not for
the mere sake of party, but be,
cause theirs is now the only organi.
zation which has no aim or princi,
pie outside ofthe Constitution and
the laws. They must move and
speak everywhere. They are the
army of the Union against North
ern treason. They have no right
to be silent when utter ruin threat
ems the country"
In almost every State the De-
mocracy are sounding the old rally
ing cry, and marshaling for the
coming contest. Let them who
assert that the Democratic party is
dead, be not deceived; it still lives,
and will live while there is a Con-
stitution to defend, q Union to re-
construct, or people to save from
ruin, and despotism.
Its triumphal march will be hail
ed with joy by the farmer whose
labor has been swallowed up by
enormous taxes; by the merchant
whose business has been ruined, by
the mechanic and the laborer whose
means of support have taken from
them. Abolitienism and section
alism will cover and quail before
the onward march of it's mighty
columns. The bright winged mes
sengers of peace will perch upon its
floating banners. Its triumph
and it is sure to triumph-will be
the greatest achievment of ancient
or modern times.-Dayton Empire.

An Original Sketch.

BY ]. oBLINGER.

LAURA MEREDITH What q floot
of sweet recollections and colder
memories flow back upon me al
the mention of that once magic
name. How it thrills the soul, and
makes the warm blood tingle in
every vein, and vibrate upon every
nerve, calling back to life and
light those tondly cherished remi.
niscences which cluster around the
Star of Maple Grove When
first looked upon Laura, she was
the embodiment of female beauty
and perfection. She was gliding
like a Sylph through the merry
mazes of ballroom dance. Hel
rich rosy cheeks were flushed with
exhilaration and excitement her
bright blue eyes sparkled with ex'
uberant delight; her voluptuous
mouth was wreathed with smiles;
her glossy auburn hair dangled in
heavy masses of golden clusters
around her neck and shoulders,
which looked as if they had been
sculptured out of alabaster. Her
finely chiseled features, her full
round form. her graceful move
ments, and her commanding look
gave her the prestige Of 'one born
to rule
1 thought then-I think now,
never gazed upon a human form
invested with such o profusion Of
personal beauty, as adorned the
person of Laura Mer edith at the
time of which I speak. She was
the star of that brilliant assemblage
of youth and beauty. All eyes
were bent in undisguised admira-
ton upon her. Noble looking men
bowed to her with the deterrent
submission of loyal subjects, while
dandies and fops stood aghast and
stared with greedy eyes upon the
peerless beauty, which was all the
more dazzling because it was be-
yond their reach. She was con-
stsntly surrounded by bands Of
ladies and gentlemen, all eager to
do honor to one so surprisingly
lovely, SO transcendantly beautiful.
At the piano she thrilled all hearts
with the rich melody which flowed
from the instrument and her voice
combined. But her mind was no
less brilliant and accomplished
than her person was beautiful
She was the daughter of the
wealthy and aristocratic Col. Mer-
edith, who lived in q style of
opulence and splendor unsurpassed
in the country. His noble mansion
was a stately edifice, constructed
upon the most approved plan of
architecture, and decorated and
adorned with all that a refined
taste could suggest, and an enlarged
liberality, coupled with the most
ample resources, could procure
His grounds were laid out in plats
and walks and parterres; and rare
and beautiful flowers in great pro-
fusion, and Of exquisite odors con-
stantly filled the atmosphere with
their delicious perfume. The i'll

The Countersign

Alas. the weary hours pass slow,
The nights very dstk and still,
And in the marshes far below
hear tho bearded whip-poor-will;
] scarce can see yard ahead,
Ny ears are, strained tocatch eschsound--
n hear ne leaves about me shed.
And the springs bubbIng thro theground
Along the beaten path pace,
Where white rags mark my sentry'S track
In formless shrubs seem to trace
The foeman's form, with bending back;
Lhink see him crouching low
stOp.and list-I stoop and peer,
Until the neighboring hilloeks grow
Togroups of soldiers, far and near.
With ready piece wait and watch,
Until my eyes familiar grown,
Detect each harmless earthen notch,
And turn guerrilla into stone;
Aud then amid the lonely gloom,
Beneath the tall old chestnut trees,
My silent marches resume,
And think of other times than these.
"Haltl Who goes there p my challenge cry
1t rings along the wItchful line
"Relicr" hear voice reply
Advance and give the countersign."

The corporal gives the mystic spell
With arms apart l charge my mate,
Then onward pass and all is well
But in the tent that night awake,
Task, ifin the fray fall,
Can the mystic answer make
When the angelic sentries call
And pray that heaven may so ordain,
Whsrc'er 60, what fate be mine,
Whether in pleasure orin pain,
still may have the countersign.
