4 COOP ACCOMPLISHED DY THE WAR.
In recent discourse on the anniversa-
nv Of the attack ON Fort Sumter, Henry
Ward Beccher said -
II think you nave seen the end Of
that most I'M American Native-Ane
canism. There is not one nation that
has not contributed its quota TO fight the
battles of liberty. The hioo! of the
Yankee has met the blood OF the Irish
man. Right alongside of our Curtis
was The noble Sigel. Right by the sic
of the wourded American lay the
wounded German Two tongues met
when they spoke the common words,
Country, Liberty, God, and Freedom.
And now there is no foreign blood
among us. They are ours. They have
earned their birth here. Their nativity
Is rs if our mothers bore them and
nursed them. America has received all
her foreign population, now, with more
glorious adoption, and they are our kin
dred. God be thanked for this suhstan
tial benefit. War, with all its horrors, is
not without its incidental advantages"

The New York Commercials York
town correspondent relates the following /:
Last night, an officer was shot by
one of his own men. The officer, Capt.
\. K. Wood, had posted his last picket,
and left him with this order: "Shoot
the first man who approaches from the
direction of the rebels without waiting to
ask for the countersign.' 1t was quite
dark, aud the officer left the picket and
lost his way, wandering from our lines
instead of to them. He soon discovered
his mistake and turned back. He ap
preached the soldier TO whom he had
given the decisive order. In the shadow
the faithful and quicksishted private saw
the dusky figure stealing toward him:
IN an instant lie raised his piece aud shot
his own captain through the side. The
wound was mortal, and thus it turned
ont that the officer had given orders for
his own execution. Such are the chan
ces of war. Picket service here is most
perilous; and, considering that the safe.
ty of the Whole army depends upon the
faithfulness with which this duty is per-
formed, one cannot wonder that those
detailed for it are so ready to execute the
commands Of their superiors."
