Brig. Gen, c. 8. Hamilton,

a correspondent of the Cincinnati Ga
sette gives the following sketch Of Gen.
Hamilton, who commands division in
Gen. Grants army, and was after the de-
parture of Gen. Rosecrans from Coriuth,
in command of the forces at that post:
The commander of the LETT wing of the
forces of West Tennessee, Brig. Gen. G. S.
Hamilton, is a man about forty, five Years
old, rather stoutly built and of medium
height. He is extremely quiet and unob.
trusive, but courteous and agreeable in
manner, and impresse5 one with an idea
that his character is solid and reliable
His home is in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin.
He graduated at West Point in 1913, in
the same class with Franklin. Quiubv,
Steel. Augur and Others, and served in the
regular army from As to '53, and was bre-
veted captain for meritorious conduct at
Cherubusco and Contreras, during the
Mexican war.
Upon the breaking ont Of the present
war he organized the Third regiment of
Wisconsin volunteers, and went to Har
per's Ferry in July, 1861. He command
ed tie first brigade of Banks division
from August, 1861, till March, 1852, and
commanded the forces which drove Jack.
son out of Winchester, Va, last spring
He then took Heintzelman's division of the
army OF the Potomac and led the move
ment to the Peninsula at Yorktown, until
recalled by Mcclellan for manfully pro
testing against the unnecessary overwork-
ing OF his division. He then came to the
Southwest and took part in the operations
before Corinth under Halleck. and was as
signed to the command of the left wing of
the army the army of the Mississippi, but
took command OF the third division, and
fought Il battle of Iuka, one of the hard
est fought fields in the history Of the war.
General Hamilton is as much deserving
Major Generals commission, and is better
qualified for it, than many other generals
in tie field. He has clear eye, a cool,
steady head and firm hand, all of which
qualify him to command an
army,

THE CJJMRERTANn

AT anchor in Hampton Roads we Law.
on board OF the Cumberland sloop -of-war:
And at times from the fortress across the bav
The alarum of drums swept past
Or bugle blast
From the camp on the shore.
Then far away to the South uprose
little leather of snow-white smoke
nnu we hne" ehat the iron ship of our foes
Was steadily steering its course

Of our ribs of oak,
Down upon US heavily runs.
Silent and sullen, the floating fort.

Ana leaps the terrible death,
With fiery breath,
From each open port.
we are rot idle, but send her straight

AS nal! rebounds from roof of slate,
rebounds our heavier hail
from each iron scale

+" Strike your flag ~ the rebel cries,
In bis arrogant old plantation strain.
F." NeTerv' our gallant Morris replies;
1t is better to sink than to yield!'
And the whole air peaed
With the cheers of oIr men.
Then like kraken huge and black,
She crushed our ribs in her iron grasp
Down went the Cumberland all a wrack
With sudden shudder of death,
And the cannon's breath
For her dying gasp.
Next morn, as the the rose over the bav
Still foated our flag at the manmast-bead
Lord, how beautiful was thy day
Every watt of the air
Was whisper of prayer,
Or dirge for the dead
Ho brave hearts that went down in the seasl
Ye are at peace in the troubled stream.
Ho ] brave land! with hearts like these
Thy flag that is rent in twain,
Shall be one again,
And without a seam

MORNING IN ITALY

The stars burnt out in the pale blue air.
And the thin white moon lay whitening there;
To tower, and cavern, and rift, and tree,
The owl and the bat fled drowsily
Day had kindled the dewy woods
And the rocks above, and the stream below
And the vapors in their multitudes.
And the Appen nines' shroud of summer snow
And clothed with light OF ary gold
The mists in their eastern uproll'd.
Day had awakened all things that be-
The lark, and the thrush, and the swallow free,
And the milkmaid's song and the mowers scythe
And the matin bell and the mountain bee,
Fire flies were quench'd on the dewy corn.
GLOW worms we mt out on the rivers brim
Like lamps which student forgets to trim:
The beetle forgot to wind his horn;
The crckets were still in the meadow and hill

Those who are most ready to make
fnss about other peoples want of modesty
ore often they who are themselves most
ohnoxloas TO rebuke. Thus, it was a
shrewd girl. and not devoid of true mod
esty either, who remarked, when other
girls were making fun OF her short skirt
and white hose, and affecting to be much
shocked at the exhibition thereof at a par.
ty: .If you'd only pull your dresses
about your necks, where they ought to be,
they'd be as short as nine!" She was
not troubled any more.

course OF Governor Solomon amid the

Governor Solomon has shown a cool de.

pLAtT TOBACCO SEED.

THERE'S no part Of the Northwestin which
the soil and climate are not well adapted
to the successful culture Of tobacco. In
Illinois, Indiana and Iowa, it grows luxu-
riantly; and in all localities where the crop
can be sheltered from the prairie wind,
which in hot days in July and August
turns up the leaves, and by exposing them
to the sun, makes them liable to be "burnt,"
it can be very prohtably produced.
On The clay lands bordering all the
streams in these States, on farms in Indiana
which have been cut out Of the timber, and
in fact, wherever else tobacco will grow,
the inducements are such as should lmpel
our farmers to give it their attention
They would find their reward IN it in
ordinary tines; in these times when tie
prospects are that the crop in the tobacco
growing States will be very small, that the
foreign and domestic dcmandiwill be large
and that prices will be high, the induce
| ments tovary the produce Of our North
western farms by this staple ought not tc
be overlooked. We do not know whert
the seed can be procured but have nj
doubt that when demanded it will be forth
coming in such quantities as may be neces
sary, and Of the quality adapted to our eli
mate. Let the farmers tryit-

From the Alexandria (va.) Chronicle, 2jth inst
When, after walk through the rain, We ar
rived at the slave pen yesterday, NC were re-
warded for our journey by tindius no less than
seen there for some time. OF these, dye were
soldiers and two civilians. Three Of them
were arrested for drunkenness. one Of them
was so much Intoxicated that the guard
were obliged to convey him to the pen on q
whee}barrow. Another had q canteen OF
whisky. The lieutenant took the cantcen
from him, and poured the contents upon the
ground, wherenpon the soldier got upon hl5
Knees, and in few moments, the pavement
was as dry as though it had been wiped with 8
cloth. We have seen some curious drinking
cups in the course OF our life, but although q
fagstonc may do in the absence Of anything
else, we think it would be rather rinconvenien1
to carry about. The improvement in th;:
place since 1t has been placed under the charge
Of Captain Myers has been great, and oifers 1
great contrast to what it was month ago.

DIVIDE THE dEONDHS,

While great honor should be awarded TO
the Illinois troops for their share in the
Fort Donelson victory, let it not be forgot
ten that the Iowa Second, the Nebraska
First, the Missouri Eighth and the Indiana
regiments are entitled to high praise. The
Iowa Second IN particular is band Of he
roes who had not their superiors on the
field. The Nebraska First, too, as the sup
port Of the Chicago Artillery On that hard
fought Saturday, did nobly, and SO dideve
~ Hoosicr On the field. Illinois did well
but she did net do all.
