E|We have been permitted to copy
the following items from letter written
to friend in this county from volun-
tcer in the Seth N. Y.
= CAMP GooDHoPE, JAN. l6, 1862.
FRIEND -: suppose you get some
kind of information about the war, perhaps
as much as we do, but you don't have the
"rumors" as often as we do. We hear
some ''yarn" every day, and each pew tale
makes subject for speculation with us
for short time. You have no doubt
heard of the Dranesville fight, | have a
cousin in the "Bucktai' Regt. lie
thinks Que more such "skrimmage" would
offset Bull Run and Balls Bluff.
We are encamped about three miles
from Washington. The Camps and
Forts around here make it one of the
strongest fortified cities in the world
The woods have been cut down, and there
Is scarce foot of ground but is guarded
by some gun. Besides the proper bat
teries, rife pits are interspersed so as to
clean the ravines that are SO numerous.
All the forts that l have yet seen are in
sight of the dome of the Capitol, which
is the signal tower of the whole. Army
officers with their signal flags can trans
NIT orders as far as they can see man
with their field glasses.
The general complaint is diarrhea,
some have been sick who say they never
knew what it was to be sick before. Our
food is as we'll as We would average at
home.
The weather has been very cold, but
in our tents with our army stoves we are
quite comfortable. The small tents are
raised by building up ,quare frame of
poles and banking up or mudding the
cracks like Potter County log house or
stable. We have built hunks so we do
not lay on the ground. For beds we
have cedar boughs and straw to sleep on.
| have slept as we'll on bed of cedar
boughs as | ever did, and sometimes
when it was cold enough to freeze ice in
a canteen close to my head. A. A. Ii.

1t is instructive to observe how the
plainness with which the republican jour

government. surprises the locofoco organs,
1t was never so when their folks were in

the days of Buchanan, Pierce, Polk, Van
Buren and Jackson, all they dared do
was to approve. Even when Floyd stole

did not dare to open their heads in dis

awaken hopeful confidence in the breasts
of thorsa nds whose solicitude and patri.
otic impatience have shaken their faith
ir. the clearness of the Executive head
and in the courage of the hand that is al

There were present at the time Presi-
dent Lincoln, Gen. Lane, Senator Pome-
ROY, Commissioners Dole, few members
of the House, and few officers and
clerks from the different departments OF
Government.
On turning to leave, Gen. Lane said
"Well, Mr. Lincoln, you know my way
| shall pursue :he policy upon which J
began, and somebody will get hurt"
To which the President replied:
"Yes, General, | understand you. And
the only difference between you and me
is, that yOu are willing to surrender fugi,
tives TO loyal owners in case they are will
ling to return while 4 do not Geliere
Mc United States Government has uny
right to giue them up IN aoy case. And
if 1t had, the People would not permit us
to exercise it,"
Gen. Lane rejoined
THAT remark, Mr.. President, makes
m happier than anything that has trans
pi red since the commencement of the
war. And if YOU will announce that as
the active policy of the Administration,
au d let US win one victory on it, you will
be the most popular man ever on this
CO ntinent."

Felix IA. XOlliCOner.

Felix h. Zollicoffer, General of the
Southern insurgents, who fell mortaily
w ounded at the battle Of Somerset, Ken
t'Icky, January 10Th, 1862, was born of
S wiss parentage in Mowry county, Ten

b : trade, and edited, when % years of
. re, The Columbia Observer; in 1885
was made State Printer; and in 1912
became editor Of The Nashville Banner,
then the leading Wing paper in the
State. In 1858, lie was chosen to Con-
grcss as an "American," served three
terms with considerable credit; and was
a leading champion of BELL. EVERETT
Unionism in 1860. When it became
evident that the rebellion would gain the
upper hand in Tennessee, he plunged
into the current, and has since been a
prominent rebel, In September last, he
Was made Brigadier General, and sent
into East Tennessee as commander in
that department, where he did very much
20 crush out or stife the hitherto over
whclming Union sentiment He was a
man of narrow but acute mind, and OF
good personal character and habits, whose
early Jacksonism and later Whiggery
qu"llfied him to exert powerful lnfu-
ence in East Tennessee.

FRESH MAPLE MoLAssEs.-A CORES
pondent of Field Notes, gives the follow
ing Maple moaSses well made and put
UP in cans right from the kettle, and her.
metically sealed, as you would can and
seal fruits, will keep as fresh as when
first boiled from the sap, and this is de-
cidedly the best plan for keeping, as
when made in cakes, if exposed to the
air, it will lose somewhat of the peculiarly
delightful favor for which it is SO priced,
and is often injured by insects. All this
is obviated by canning while hot. To
many families who do not make on a
large scale, this need be but little expense,
as the cans that have been eMptied
through the winter can be used until au-
tumn fruits demand them again. Fut
up your best in this way. Where large
quantities are made for market, the buy
ers must select and can for themselves.
