Of Row0a county, N. c.
How oft the wayworn soldier feels,
The need OF friends around
How rare a peaceful world that heals
The soldiers bleeding wound?
How oft the solCie thinks of home,
And knows his friends are there?
How oft he prays the time may come
When he their smiles may share?
Dear friend, tits often thus with me,
think of friends away,
Inow remember when with thee,
So oft I heard you pray.
How oft my mind the past reviews,
And sees you while you stand
P~roclaiming mercy's glorious news,
To these on ev'ry hand.
But now thy voice l never hear,
That church 1 never see,
Inever meet with loved ones there,
For l am far from thee.
Inever now for worship meet,
With those I've often met.
Methinks / see the vacant seat
never can forget!
l often wish to meet again
Around that family stand,
And there for each the cross sustain;
In hopes of Canaan's land.
But oh l never see thee more,
At noon, or night, or morn,
They tell me too, from earth's rough shore,
Thy soul may soon be borne.
That silvery locks adorn thy he d,
And burrows mark thy cheek,
That tn tomb, which many so much dread,
Thy body soon will seek.
But as thou drawest near to death,
Methinks | see thee stand,
Determ'd, through Christ, the victor's wreath.
To carry n thy hand.
Still waiting for that happy day,
When Geo shall thee require,
70 lay aside this earth aud say
1t Is enough, come higher"
But still / hope the Lord Will spare,
And let u meet again;
And answer yet cur feFvent prayer
That peace return and rei-u.
But should l never see thy face,
III pray that you may tell,
Your friends around, at deaths embrace,
That = Ali is Wells we'll"

The reply of Col. Aldrich to the repeated at.
tacks made upon him by the New York ITi.
bune, on the mileage question, will be found in
the atlas this week, and is, as was to have
been expected by those who knew the man q
mixture of speciOus pleading. sophistry and
falsehood, highly seasoned and cOlOred with
egotism and impudence.
The above appeared in the Minneapolis
Atlos, of Wednesday, and astonished US be.
yond expression. Our first thought was,
that some interloper, ambitious of the noto>
riety attained by JOHN PHOENIX when he
changed the politics of the San Diego Her.

not know the man" so we'll as "W. s.

Proposition for an Irish Regimen,

We direct the attention of our Irish fell
low citizens to the exceedingly liberal pro-
position contained in the order of the Ad.
jutant General, for regiment of Irishmen
from Minnesota. The Governor simply
asks that five gentlemen shall raise fifteen
men each by the 18th instant, as condi
ton of calling for another 1.-THE 8th) regi>
ment from Minnesota, to be CONFUSED OF
Irishmen, who will have the privilege of Sc
Letting, not only their company officers, but
the field officers and chaplain-or in other
words, they will have the whole organiza-
ton of the regiment in their own hands.
We trust this proposition will be favorably
received by the Irishmen of Minnesota.
The honor of every Irish citizen in Mime.
sofa is involved in the response that will be
given to this proposition. The brave and
heroic CoRcoRAN and MEAaHER, of New
York, and the lamented CAss, of Boston,
and the gallant spirits who rallied under
their leadership to the defence of the coun-
try, have well sustained the reputation &C.
quired by their countrymen on all the battle
fields Of Europe. Let their noble example
be emulated by the Irish citizens of this
State.

The Process Of Drafting.

The extraordinary process of drafting is
simply this: Rolls are prepared containing
the names of all able.bodied men between
the ages of 1S and 45-and the requisite
number of names are drawn by lot in the
presence of prescribed officials. The per-
sons drawn are notified and given opportu'
nifty to prove themselves exempt. or provide
suitable substitutes, failing in which they
are compelled to serve. or submit to heavy
penalties. All male citizens of the United
States are liable to be drafted, except those
who are employed in the civil service of the
Government, from President down to mai
carriers, and all those who are disabled by
age, disease or personal inability.
The weekly pioneer and Democrat. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. Territory) 1855-1865, 1862-08-15

"A correspondent of the New York
Express speaks thus of the strict discipline
of the army of the Potomac:
The discipline of this army, is now extreme.
ly severe, fully up to the regular standard.
The men are drilled three hours every day in
Kearney's Division, and even longer in other
sections. The slightest offences are severely
punished, and our volunteers are just begin.
ing to discover, that not only in the field, but
in the camp there are duties to be performed.
This brings out class of strikers, who in time
of battle, are not to be relied upon, unless they
are first taught their duty. 1t is astonishing to
see the change, SO great has it been. The late
battles first made soldiers of many, who had
before never met an enemy, and now it is hop.
ed that strictness of discipline, equal to that
of any service in the world, will make reliable
men of others. An officer appeared on parade
today with a straw hat, and he was immedia.
tely notified that repetition of it, would be
promptly punished as an offence. All ranks
are served alike.

How We shsuld Trsat D1aloynl 1en.
We believe there is less avowed dialoyalty
10 Minnesota than in any other State. 1ta
open expression would not be tolerated for
moment. But there are those, not yet
ostracised from; contact with loyal men, ID
politics, business, and sociallife, whose daily
conversation evinces more sympathy with
the South than with the North. They mag
nifty rebel successes, and the strength Of the
rebels. They belittle the national victories,
and use what influence they may have in
discouraging enlistments, and are constantly
rehearsing the assumed grievances OF the
South as excuses for atrocious crimes. The
law will not reach such men, and public vio-
lence is to be deprecated. What shall be
done with them? The time for federation of
open or covert treason, has gone by. Dis
loyalty must be branded as infamous, wher-
ever met with-whether in politics, bust.
ness, or social life. That man, be he who
he may, who at this time, either openly or
covertly, opposes the use by the Government
of all the means known to civilized warfare
to crush out the rebellion and punish the
rebels, who sneeringly or otherwise seeks to
disauade men from volunteering in the Union
armies, is as much foe and as much
traitor as he who takes up arms against the
Government. His hands are red with the
blood of our sons and brothers, and be should
