Dea n of Col. AEban.

E0. Journal II IS with much pain that
lam forced to the belief that Col. j. S, Al
Ban, of The 18th Reg. Wis. Vol, is dead.
Ny personal acquaintance with Col. Alban
was quite brief, but of sufficient duration TO
impress upon me the fact that he was one of
Wisconsin's nobIest, purest patriots On the
sd day of March, myself with another friend
spent some time with him at his quarters in
LIZ lamp Of the 18th, then in Milwaukee. At
N J.ae. my reflections were that onr cause
nus rlAy be a noble one, when such men as
Col Allan should feel it to be their duty To
Islvtothe rescue.
Although past the prime of life, with high
GIVE honoFs resting upon his patriotic brow,
be ts.t, a, he said to me, that it was his duty
10 take tie the battle field"
Nay bis family bear with resignation their
great grief, and may the people of Wisconsin,
never forget that a "k-ro sleeps his last

The Dutch Hunter.

There is a German living in the Northeast
ern part ofthis county, who gets his living en-
tirely by hunting, and is known familiarity as
the dutch Hunter" While up in that re-
gion last week, We had the pleasure of looking
over his premises. He has large park fenced
in, in which he raises and keeps great num-
Jcrs of deer The fence enclosing the park is
50 arranged in places, that deer can get in but
cannot escape. In this way he catches many
wild deer, who are called into the enclosure by
the tame ones.
His buildings are constructed i'll the most
singular style, with numerous gables. and The
roof on all sides extending nearly to the
ground. The inside walls and ceiling of his
house are completely covered with deer and
elk horns, and other trophies of the chase. He
dresses entirely in buckskin and lives almost
exclusively on meat. He is quitc communiea-
tive, and takes pride in showing his knives.
guns &c. used in hunting, and the deer which
by his ingenuity lie has captured. We have
never seen better representative of the pio-
neer than the Dutch Hunter" Long may he

1t is probable that no announcement ever
so thrilled and saddcned the whole people Of
this State, as the above has done. A great
and good man has gone-one upon whom the
State leaned in this hour of rerplexity and
peril-in whose ability she had confidence.
and i'll whose integrity she could safely con-
fde
To the many who were blessed with the
personal acquaintance and friendship of Gov.
HARVEY, his loss will seem a personal and
private one. but the greatness of the public ca
lamty dwalfs all minor griefs.
Last Autumn when all patriotic men were
searching with imploring eyes for a man al lie
and honest-clear-heade and right-hearted,
to take the chief position in the State. the
choice fell with singular unanimity upon
LOUIS P. HARVEY. 1t fell upon him because
ho lad been tried. and proved. and not found
wanting'-becaUse he was known to be a poll
tician without a stain-a statesman ithout
reproach-an official who dIgnified office-one
who valued personal integrity ard the inter
ests of the State bove all else. and in the
Ia ,tice of private virtues and the
discharge of public trusts, came up to the
standard of an ideal manhood. Of his brief
but arduous career as Governor, it is sufficient
to say that he has filed the measure Of public
expectation.
He is gone! Adler hands than ours will
write his eulogy, which only able hands sho'd
write. And now that he has passed into the
presence of the Great GOVERNOR of all-in the
prime of life, crowned with honors, burdened
with responsibilities pressed by busy cares,
without moments warning stepping from
the bustling world into Eternal Silence, it is
pleasant to remember that he was in the path
OF duty till the last, and that the journey on
which he met his death was undertaken at hui
mainly s call. 1t is pleasant, too, to remem-
Der that he was a Christian Man-one who
reveIen.ly bowed to the authority and meekly
followedth the teachings OF the DIVINE MASTER,
and in whose daily life practical p;ety worked
out its benificent results.
Wondering why he should be taken, who
can 50 lily be spared. we remember that

We, the undersigned, Commissioned
Officers of the 18th Regiment Wisconsin,
Volunteers, in view of the resignation Of
Captain Norman Mcleod, Of Company
A, hereby adopt The following rs express
i've Of our sentiments towards him, now
that he is about to resign his command
and again retire to private life. For the
past FIVE months our association with
HIM has been Of the most friendly charac-
ter. His uIban;ty Of manners. moral
department, aud activity in the duties
assigned to him, have. and will continue
to be worthy Of imitation; and from the
time Of enlisting the United States ser
vico at Madison, to the present, he has
always been foremost in adopting those
measures that are calcu ted to advance
The interest and cement friendly feelings
between the different commands of our
regiment. Although he has had 40 OPP
portunity to display bis bravery on tho
battle field, still we have no doubt, had
the 18th regiment been called to face the
rebel fire, be would not have faltered, but
at the head Of Company A would have
cheered on his command to victory or
death. AS lie leaves US and returns to
the endearments Of home, he will take
with him our best wishes that his future
life may be cloudless, and that rotros-
pection will at all times render pleasant
the past associations of camp life that by
bis resignation are closed. And when
this war shall come to an end, our broad
land freed from the grasp of rebels, may
we be permitted to return TO our own
Wisconsin. and in civil life cement the
bands of friendship that have been so
harmonious during the past five months.
