A NOBLE BoY.-The spirit that is stead
fast amid trial and devotion TO principle
always commands the esteem Of good men.
The person who is willing TO be made the
butt of ridicule rather than yield to that
which he believes to be wrong is worthy
of all praise.
a little drummer-boy in our of nur regi-
ments, who had become great favorite
with many of the officers by his unremitling
good nature, happened en- one occasion to
to be in the officers tent when the bane of
the soldiers life was passed around. A
captain handed glass to the little fellow,
but he refused it, saying am cadet of
temperance, and do not taste strong drink. !"
.But you must take some now. j insist on
it. You belong to our mess to-day, and can
no. refuse"
Still the boy stood firm on the rock of total
abstinence, and held fast to his integrity.
| The captain, turned TO the major, said,
aH--is afraid to drink he will never
make soldier" allow is this 2" said the
major, playfully and then assuming another
tone, added" command you to take
drink, and you know it is death to disobey
orders"
The little hero raised his form TO its full
hight, and fixing his clear blue eys, lit up
with unusual trilliancy, on the face of the
officer, said:
"Sir, my father died drunkard; and
and when / entered the army promised
my dear mother. on my bended knees that
by the help of God, would not taste drop
Of rum, and | mean too keep my promise.
am sorry to disobey your orders, sir
but would rather suffer than disgrace my
mother and break my temperance pledge.
The major and his associates are still in
the army, but the little drummer boy is a
wounded sufferer in the hospital at West
Philadelphia.-S. S. Times.

Daniel Webster in his Coffin.

We find the following account of the pri-
vate funeral of Col. Fletcher Webster, and
the inspection of his illustrious fathers re-
mains, in last weeks issue Of the plymouth
"The tomb at Marshfield once again
opens wide its portals to receive the last Of
the sons of the Great Expounder.
The funeral of Col. Fletcher Webster
took place at his residence in Marshiield on
Wednesday, Sept. 10. The body was
sent down from Boston in richly capari-
soned hearse with four horses, by way Of
bingham and South Shore. Several coaclI-
es conveyed his Boston friends from Kings
ton Depot, while large assemblage gather
ed from the neighboring town. Rev. Mr..
Alden, the village pastor, conducted the SER
vices; the body resting on his fathers writ
ing table in the library, according to his dy-
ing request. A large procession followed
his body to the tomb, where the coffin was
deposited with the family whom nation
mourns.
BY request of Peter Harvey, Esq, and
others. the oaken box containing the great
statesman's coffin was opened, and the me.
tallic cover Of the glass removed. How
we're the feelings of those personal friends
stirred within them 10 find those lneaments
and features, which no man ever looked up
on to forget, retaining the same color and
impress--natural as when ten years ago
they gave him up to the grave.
The eyes we're more sunken. but the
heavy shadows beneath the brows were al.
ways there in life. Even in death, and for
decade the captive of the grave, that
kingly presence inspired the same deep rev.
ercnce and speechless awe as when in the
living temple of his matchless mind. Said
one who looked upon his face again, for
got all else, and cannot tell you anything Of
the tomb or surrounding Objects The vel
vet pail with its rich embroidery was in
perfect preservation, though deprived Of its
primitive gloss.
In silence the lid was dropped and the
box recIosed. Farewell, thou great depart.
ed Earth's communion with thee IS DER.
No more shall human eye behold that face
over which thought and feeling once flashed
the light and shade of that Imperial mind
Rest, noble staiesuaan, with thy patriot sons.
Thy memory still lives, enshrined in ma
.ion's admiration and gratitude.

Summers gone and over.
Fogs are falling down
Ard With russet tinsas
Autumns $ doing brown.
Boughs are daily ritled
by the gusty thieves,
And the Bo Ok ot Nature
Gettcth short of leaves.
Round the tops Of houses,
Swallows, as they fit.
Give, like yearly tenants,
Notices to quit,
Skies, OF fckle temper,
Weep by turns and laugh--
Night and Day together,
Taking half-aud half.
So October endeth--
Cold, and most pergrse--
But the month that follows
Snre will pinch US worse.

The Federal army under Gen. Buell. seems
destined to win no aurels from its brief cam
paign in Kentucky. 1t is impossible to read
without humiliation, of the almost uninter-
rupted progress OF Gen. Bragg into the heart
Of the state, OF his apparent success in sup
plying the necessities Of his ragged and desti-
mte army, and his final retreat, with General
Buell. keeping up kind of mock pursuit in
his rear. In the advance and in the retreat,
the rebel general has outwitted the federal
at every point, and at the last accounts
was making his way successfully to
the Tennessee border The Louisville Jour
nal which is friendly to Buell., says of the
rebels, ''they came in as braggarts and blus-
terers, and they flee as sneaks and towards"
But where is its favorite COMMUNICATIVE
suffers this contemplate army to lead him on
FOOLS chase through all that rich country,
and finally escape from before his eyes? The
dispatches charitably say he is Gin pursuit.

brace such vigorous movements if they are
even a part Of his purpose. His dill
atory movements, we are sure, are
no fault of the soldiers under him.
They are brave resolved, and burning to fight
the war to a successful issue, and return home.
Letters from them without number bear test-
mony to the impotence with which they sub
init 70 the almost imbecile and entirely fruit
less campaigning Of their commander. The
fragmentary accounts which come from far
ther south indicate that good work is in pro-
gress by the portion Of Grants army under
Rosccrans. and that the rebel army will soon
find it difficult to make a safe stand anywhere
in northern Mississippi or Alabama. With the
arny under Buell. in equally vigorous hands,
or under control of men who have half heart
ia the work which is given them to do, we
should not be threatened as now with an inef-
iectual winter campaign at the west, discour-
aging alike 10 soldiers in the field and to the
whole country.

The Blow Mt Sumner Is aimed Rt Lib.
.r1v

Let this be fully understood | was present
last week Wednesday, when the president Of
the democratic convention at Worcester,
made his speech. He avowed that the
nomination of Charles Sumner must be de-
stroyed to annihiate the radical element
throughout the country" This sentiment
was greeted with great applause.
BY ''the radical element" they mean the
deep hatred which the masses cherish against
slavery. To rebuke this pro-slayery spirit
Sumner should be returned to the senate in
most triumphant manner.
gentleman Of much influence, a gradu-
ate OF Yale college, said to me, few days
since, 81 had thought that we had better let
Sumner rest from his senatorial labors but
since this violent opposition has COME up,
j am resolved TO aid him to retain his seat"
Brooks did not more designedly strike
against freedom, than those now strike, who,
claiming to represent "the people," are OPP
posing the Hon. CHARLES SUMNER. All their
rage is in vain. The words OF inspiration
say, "fe that love the Lord, hate eytl." This
Is ''He radtc@ clement" which cannot be de-
stroyed. J. X. JouNsov

One Of our exchanges speaks Of the 'es-
sential disloyalty Of the Worcester (repubi-
cam convention" and the fippant accusation
is caught up with alacrity by every anti-ad-
ministraton Journal in the state, as the day Of
election approaches. There is not a candid
and intelligent man in Massachusetts, who
does not know that the charge has not
shadow of foundation in fact, and that its oh.
yious intent is to divert support from the re-
publican candidates for state and other offices.
Democrats and pro-slayery people generally
have cause to be grateful to those who arc
willing TO pull their cbestnuts out Of the fire.
