By little girl who has brother in the - CoSFED-
ERATES."
In the cemetery of Canton reposes the remains
of Capt. Z. G. HENRY. The futtering spark OF
vital fame has left his manly form. Yes, he Is
gone to the grave, and he sleeps the sleep without
dreams. No more will he wander in the sunny
realms of earth. The summer winds that once
famed his noble brow in life, viii now pass mourn
fully among the willows that droop Ger his grave.
But he fell in a noble cause, calamity leading on
his men in bis countryis Defence he fell sacrifice
to his ZEAL and many regret his death. The brave
followers to whom he father, mourn deeply
their loss but SUCH alas is too often the sad des
tiny of the WARRIOR hundreds who left their sunny
homes-their fathers mothers, sisters and brothers,
with joyful hearts, now slumber in i" deaths icy
clasp - and the bright aurels which they glori-
ously won, are the only links that bind them to
this world.
Capt. HENRY is gone forever, but his generous
conduct and noble deeds indelibly imprinted on
our memory. Let his deeds be initiated with an
ardent emulation and may they inspire his men
with wish TO fall, if taHt they must, the field of
glory.
Rest soldier, rest; thy warfare's DER"
The spot where thou reposest is holy ground. An
other viii fill the military station made vacant by
his death, and it will be easy for society to find
Idols. But there ere hearts which feel a vacuum
which must foreUer ache places which. knowing
him more, wear the sadness and desolation of
the tomb. His homestead is Garkened, and deep
must be the chill upon its many affectionate hearts
The aspect of nature appears changed. The winds,
which sung anthems of praise among the trees, now
wall with dirge-like melancholy through their
foliage and 1.-THE moon shines with a sickIy lustre
as if mourning for a departed worshipper"

COSMOPOLITE.
CAMP LEE, near Richmond,
Tulv OSth- 1890

July 10Th, 1867.
Dear Citizen !: The great battles before Richmond
have been fought and won; the shackles which
have so long bound fair portion of Virginia to a
relentless despotism are being Embossed, and we
once more breathe freely in prospect of the dawn
ing day of Independence for cur young Confedera-
cy. Although we have beaten back the Vandals
from beeagured capital. there are no rejoicngs,
grand Examinations to celebrate the victory but
the blood rushes back upon.the heart and leaves
palld h1e upon each countenance, as each day re-
veals TIE losses among troops. From Mechan-
icsve to Malvern Hill the soil has drank up the
most precious blood of the Confederacy. History
has chronicled such wholesale destruction of
human life and in short time. In some places
men stricken down in scores, while here and
there lay the corpse of soldier who had yielded up
his life, with his face turned 30 Heaven if watch
ing the departing spirit in its ascent to haven of
rest. Truly, war is horrible, and to look upon the
slaughtered thousands of battlefield is indeed
fearful reminder of that slender thread on which
hangs everlasting things
. Although our loss was very heavy, amounting
probably, to twelve thirteen Thousand in killed
wounded and missing. it is net great as the enc
my's. who probably lost twice that number.
But victory is not valued by the number of
killed, wounded and missing, but by its physical,
political and moral effects. The grand army of
invasion which was to crush us in its anaconda
folds has been driven. reeling and discounted, to
the brink of the James River and will be compelled
to remain there for months before it can recover
from the grand strategic movement" Now is
the time for government to strike and strike
vigorously. The troops are ready and anxious to
be led forward, and until the line of march is taken
for the North, we must make up our minds to en-
dure long and exhausting But it is graf
flying to know that the Government is taking every
advantage of McClel.an's defeat, and we conf
IDENTIFY look for sharp, sh ort and decisive" cam
paign. "Old Stonewall'' Jackson is on the move
again, and You may soon expect happy greeting
from bis command Hurrah for Stonewall.
The New York Times gives the following state
ment of their losses in the recent battles before
Richmond: Killed, 1865; wounded, 7T0l; missing,
$685. Toati. 1924. The Times says this is from
official source, but when it is recollected that
we took something over 1900 prisoners, we know
it is far from the truth.
Negotiations being made for general ex-
change of prisoners the cartel of 1912 is the basis.
This instrument stipulated for American agents
at Halifax and other places and for British agents
to the United States; and stipulated not only fer
an exchange of prisoners of the same rank, but for
equivalents in men. where they were of different
ranks, aud for the parole of the surplus" This

had the opportunity to witness the consum-
mate skill and celaity with which he "sets a
squadron in the field"

THE CONSERVATION last Monday morn
ing large number of conscript soldiers left
this point for the general rendezvous, or
camp of instruction, at Brookhaven, in Law
renee county, and at all the depots along the
route the number was augmented by addi-
tional recruits. They were, " in the main, "a
fine looking, healthy, able-bodied set of men.
Notwithstanding this external appearance of
health and corporal ability however, we
have no doubt nearly all % the ills that flesh
is heir to" prevailed among them, as we
gathered from conversations going on {most
persons travelling in the cars talk at the top
of their lungs, quite unnecessarily, too that
many of them expected to be excused, some
upon one pretext and some upon another.
One had enlargement of the spleen; another,
asthma third, rheumatism fourth, dis
ease of tire heart fifth, liver complaint;
sixth chronic diarrhea. One was halt, ano-
Their was (nearly) blind, and third was deaf
One had broken arm, another dislocated
shoulder, third one short leg, and fourth,
t,Oo short legs, Now, we do not say nor even
intimate, that among all these there was
single pretender; but it must be confessed
that war is wonderfully potent to develop
the infirmities and the hidden diseases of
men. Doubtless many who went to Brook
haven would have preferred some other
haven and we suspect that many who ex-
pected to be discharged, from one cause and
another, were sadly disappointed, and wore
faces as melancholy as " grim visaged
war itself.
There was a great disposition manifested
by the volunteer soldiers on the cars to have
fun at the expense of the Conscripts. All
sorts of remarks were INDUCED in some wit
ty and some otherwise. One fellow was
particularly severe, and we apprehended once
or twice that he would g get his mothers
monkey in trouble but he got to Brookha-
ven with whole bones and an uncracked head,
which is more than we can say he deserved.
AS a specimen of his sarcastic remarks the
cars passed carcass on the roadside huge
bovine beast that had come to its latter end
without the assistance OF the butcher, and
had. not been properly salted down, the odor
from which was not as savory as that arising
from barbecued meats, and of the pleasant
ness of which the enrolled soldiers, as well
as others. expressed their dissent by Pc
culiar twitch of the nasal organ; whereupon,
Nc Volunteer remarked, that ''the Conscripts
needn't turn up their noses at that carcass;
il was from such that the Government issued
rations to the Conscripts" Again he said
that " the Conscripts reminded him of a hard
mouthed mule worked with sharp bit, caus
ing the under-lip to hang down prodigious-
"" We observed that these remarks nettled
the (" Conscript Fathers" and sons somewhat,
but they bore them quite phiiosorhically, oil
