VERY LUcID.-The warrior wit who is
just now very conspicuous as the Mars
Of the Union constellation, Orpheus C.
Kerr, in one of his recent communications
describes fierce equestrian combat" be-
tween William Brown. of the U. s. A.,
and Capt. Munchausen, Of the C. S. A.,
and closes the account in this wise:
"Ha!' says William gazing severely at
company 3, regiment 5, as it came pouring
forward, has the Southern Confederacy
concluded to submit to the United States
Of America?" What the answer was, my
boy, am not allowed to say; but you may
rest satisfied that thing has been done
which am not permitted to divulge; and
should this lead, as | hope it will, to a
movement ain not suffered to make pub.
lie, it cannot fail to result in consumma-
ton which am forbidden to make known.
But if, on the other hand, the strategetic
movement which ain not at liberty to de-
scribe should be followed by stroke am
restrained from explaining, you will find
the effect it would not be judicious in me
to set forth will produce that which the War
Department denies me the privilege Of de-
veloping.

INFAMOUS TALK.-A paper called the
Consultation and Union, published in JEFF
ierson county, in this State, in an appeal
to party Democrats not to enlist in the
service of the Government, utters the fol
lowing Infamous sentiments with regard to
the bounty offered to induce volunteering {:
"Go tell your King he has not gold
enough to buy me-" said one of the patri-
OTIS Of 70; and that should be the reply of
every Democrat and true lover of his coun.
try, to king Abraham, when an Office o-
other bribe, military or civil, is rendered
for the purpose of winning him to the side
Of the usurper and from his allegiance to
the Democratic party. Tell him he has
not gold enough, nor honors to bestow to
make you traitor. Spurn with contempt
the attempt, and the one that makes the
offer, to seduce you from your principles"

EATING SHOULD BE CHEERFUL, Social
BUslNEss.-The benefit derived from food
taken, depends very much upon the con.
dition Of the mind while eating. Ii taken
in moody, cross, despairng condition Of
the mind, digestion is much less perfect
and slower, than when taken with cheer
ful disposition. The very rapid and silent
manner too common among Americans,
should be avoided, and some topic of in
t,rest introduced at meals, that all may
partake in and if hearty laugh is occa-
sionally INDUCED in, it will be all the bet
ter.
1t is not uncommon that person dining
in pleasant and social company can eat and
digest well that which, when eaten alone,
and the mind absorbed in deep study, or
brooding over car.s and disappointmcnts,
would be undigested in the stomach, caus.
ing disarransement and pain and much in
dulged in, become the cause of permanent
and irreparable injury to the system.

so unnatural and artificial manner.-
What pity that in the sacredncss of q

that the sweet home cares which sit SO

What pity that husband should not

ground-to our platform-the position the
people and press Of the north must sooner

says:

is in danger Of being ruined by traitors,
who threaten to overthrow the best gov

time nor desire to ponder over series of
resolutions.

political chickering's should cease. and all
unite upon the issue that Of preserving
the government Of the United States Of
America. This is the paramount issue now
before the American people. For the pres

wanted to sustain the government. All

should be employed to accomplish this OBJ

must not be supposed that these new levies
are necessarily raw recruits or undrilled
volunteers. They would consist fot the
most part Of men who had either returnct
home after serving for the term of theif
first engasethent, Or had been in prepard'
ton for al emergency Of this kind. They
are in any case men whose appearance in
arms is perfectly spontaneous. They g.
at the call Of the Federal Magistrate--s cali
endorsed by their own State Governors
but call which they were under no com.
pulsion to obey. The New York Seventh,
Tor example, met early on the morning Of
the 10Th, voted unanimously to respond to
the summons Of their officers, and equipped
themselves for departure at nightfall. 1t Is
