A New KENTUCKY PoLIcY.-Mr. CASEY,
member Of Congress, and other kentucki
ans, are asking that as fast as troops are
raised in volunteer regiments, and under
the new drafting calls, they shall be push>
ed down into Kentucky, drilled and there
subsisted off property Of Kentucky rebels.
They argue that this will he sufficient to
avert all danger in Kentucky, and at the
same time make rebellion in kentucky un-
profitable and support our troops properly.
They ask, also, that all the able bodied ne,
grocs belonging to rebels should be seized
at once and used for camp service as team
sters, etc, but not armed.

Confession of ThurlOW Weed,

There have been mistakes. There has
been peeulation. Weak men have dis
graced and bad men have betrayed the
Government. Contractors have fattcncd
on fat Jobs. Adventures have found the
war source of private gain. Moral des
peradoes have hocked about The National
Capital and lain in wait for prey. The
scum Of the land has gathered about the
source Of power and defiIed them by is
reek and offensive oior. There hos Lcou
mismanagement in the Departments mi
management in the camp; mismanago,
ment wherever great labor has been per-
formed and great sponsibiliues deyoIviu1
even Presidents and Cabinet officers and
commanding Generals-have erred.

On the field of battle, mother,
All the night alone lay,
Angels watching Ger me, mother,
Till the breaking of the day,

And the loving ones at home,
Till to our dear cottage, mother,
Boy again I seem'l to come.
lie to whom YOU taught ne, mother,
On my infant knee to pray,
Kept my heart from fainting, mother,
When the vision passed away.
In the gray Of morning, mother,
Comrades bore me to the town;
From my bosom tender fingers
Washed tie blood that trickled down.
l must soon be going, mother,
Going to the home Of rest
Kiss Inc as Of oh, my mother,
Press me nearer TO your breast.
Would could repay you, mother,
For your faithful love and care;
GoD uphold and bless you, mother,
In thi, bitter soc YOU bear.
Kiss for me my little brother,
Kiss my sisters, loved so well,
When you sit together, mother,
Tell them how their brother fell.
Tell to them the story, mother,
When l sleep beneath the sod,
That | died to save my country
All for love to her and COP.
Leaning on tie merit, mother,
OF the OHG who died for all,
Peace is in my bosom, mother,-
IIark | hear the angels call
Don't you hear them singing mother?
Listen TO the music's swell
Now l leave you, loving mother
GoD be with you-fare you well.

stigmatizes it as one Of the most disgrace
ful examples Of neglect Of duty and lack
of good conduct that can be found in the

merits the extreme penalty which the law
provides for such misconduct, and tha. the
