Litchfield enquirer., 1862-09-11

On Monday morn, my boy, whilst was pull ing on pair of new boots that have some mu sic in their soles, there arose near my room door sonnd as of one in dire agony, closely fol lowed by a variously- moan as ot some deserted woman in distress. Hastily dis continuing my toilet, and darting to the thresh old, I beheld one of those scenes of civil wat which impress the sensitive soul with horroI and meet the just reproduction Qf feeling Al. bion.
 Rampant between two marrow-bonss, my boy, was my frescoed dog, Bologna, eyeng, with her, rid fury, Sergeant O'Pake's canine friend, known as Jacob Barker. and ever and anon uttering sentences of supernatural wrath. To these thu excited Barker responded in deep bass of great compass, his nose curling with undisguised dia. dair, and his eyes assmilating to that insid ous and fiery squint which betokens inexpressi ble malisnity. There was something not oi earth, my boy, in the frescoed Bolognas distoc;: tion of countenance as he attempted to keep 0n eye on each bone, and at the same time look full in the face of his foe and there was that in the sounds of his strain which betokensj Sirius indecison.
 | As gazed upon those two infuriated won, ders of natural history, my boy, and recognized the fact that the existence of tive bones in col- tention prevented an actual battle because nei- ther combatant was willing to lose sight of e;- ther of them whilst the presence of but ors bone would have simpli6ed the matter and prc- cipitated decisive conflict, I could not but think that saw symbolized before me the si;a, aton of our distracted country. The United States of America, my boy, and the we'll known Southern Confectionery, are like two irascible terriers praetieing defiant strategy between two bones, ths one being the festive negro question, and the other ihs Union. Now. it seems to me, my boy it seems to ne, that the gay animal with U S., OF his collar would only dispose of the bone nearest him without furthey yocalism, there would be better chance f0l him to secure the other bone in the combat suye to come.
 Dogs, my boy, and men, are very much aIlks
 
 know just exactly which is truly their nagnurr bonuna.
 Ascending to the roof of my architectural steed, Pegasus, on Tuesday, induced the goth ic animal to adopt pace sometimes affected by the fleet tortoise, and went down to Accomac n pursuit of knowledge respecting recruiting Just before reaching that Arcadian locality, ply boy, met Colonel Wobert Wobinson, of the Western Cavalry, who had been dowp there tc induce volunteering and infuse fresh confidence into the masses. He offered bounty of two hundred dollars three dollars to be paid imna- diately, and the rest as soon as the war com, mences in earnest; and promised to each man a horse physically incapacitated from running away from anything.
 Well, my bold dragooD," says l, cordially noticing that Pegasus had already fallen into Q peaceful dose, how go enlistments?"
 The Colonel waved away an abstracted croU that was lowering in deep reverie over my cha, gers brow, and said be- have enlisted all thG people of Accomac."
 "Iwant to know" said I, Bostonianiy.
 "Yes," said he, Il called meeting, and suc cseded in enlisting all-their sympathiss." As gazed upon the equestrian warrior, ny boy, methought saw the youngest offSprins O wink trembling in Q corner of his right eye and felt that the world renowned Snyder wsc at that moment laboring undsra heavy incu. bus. Such is life.
 The state of health in Accomac indicates that the demon of disease is abroad in the land looking chiefly for his victims among those bo tween the tender ages of eighteen and forty-fve Instead of having sling in his hand like the young warrior David, each young man met had his hand in sling, whilst the dexter leg Of more than one abls-boded patriot suggested the juvenile prayer, " Now lame me, down to slip" And there were the women of America fairly crying in terror of the draft, instead of bear ing themselves like the Spartan ribs of old.
 Alas my boy, why cannot our people realize that nation, like cook-stovs, cannot keep up steady fire without good draft. We nssd men for the crisis, and we find only cry sssss 1 for the men.
 could not stay here, so l hastened on tS Paris, where great stratsgstic movement was about to supply the world with fresh recolsc, tions of the late Napoleon. I say lass NApO! con, my boy, because our Napoleon is apt to be behind time.
 As far back as I can remember, have beeu fully aware that this movement was about [" take place, but would not, like too many other correspondents, betray the confidence repossd in me. This bosom, my boy, this manly anu truthful bosom, is about the right shop tor con fdence. Nor is it like the bosom or thoae who lean truthfully say that they never give impor tapt informatiou to the enemy, though every body knows that they sell #.
 On arriving in Paris, I saw at once that prep arations for outgsneraling the poor deceived Con !sdsracy had already commenced; for the 1dowu.troddep General of the Mackersl Brigade had assembled the reliable contrabapas whom, he had used for some weeks past, and was taF, ing leave of them ip heartfelt manner.
 Mounted on small keg. from the bunghol7 of which came the aroma of pleasant rye sslds, the Genera softly wiped his lips, and says he;
 Being members of race which we regard as speshsss of monkeys, ny black children the fact that this is white mans war, will pre- rr tek;no mart in the entirely different
