WHAT FOR !

There are thousands Of kind hearts
that sicken over the horrible details of
battle, and wonder why the terrible trag-
siv cannot cease. They think the war
is about the negro someway, and feel that
tho object IS not worth the sacrifice. 1t
cannot b too often explained that this
war is for the freedom Of the whole ma
ton; it is to establish and enforce Law !;
il is to sustain Government; it is the
NOS. terrible ordeal to which our institu-
aoas have been subjected. A failure now,
lsa oss Of all that was fought for in the
war Of the Revolution, aud leaves the
problem Of Government where il was
before Washington aad Jefferson under
took its ISOLATION. But there cannot be
failure. The Republic will emerge from
this struggle undivided and entire, with
tue admitted power to repel foreign in-
Yssion or quell domestic revalt. 1t is a
result worth paying the price for,

Gov. Earvey's Death.
PARTICULARS OF THE Dis
4.ASIER. s.- i4 .as


We have the main particulars of the
accident which resulted in the death of
Gov. HARVEY, from various sources.
Having completed the business Of his
mission, the Governor left Pittsburg Sat
urday morning for Savannah. Before
leaving Pittsturg he had arranged with
the Captain of. the steamer Mlnuehaha,
to cali for him at Savannah, and take
himself aud party on board, for the par-
pose of returning honeward. The Gov
ernor was on the steamer Dunleith, at
Savannah landing, Saturday evening,
when the Minnehaha was heard to al,-
proach. This was about ten o'clock.
Gov. Harvey rallied the party, giving his
companions notice that the Minnebaha
was coming. He himself repaired to
the boiler deck, where there was no light
the rest of the party following. What
occurred afterward we give in the lang
uage Of a Wisconsin correspondent, y ho
was one of the party: ...t..
The Governor was walking along the
guards Of the Dunleith, to hail the cap
tain. Just as tue Minnehaha touched
the bow of the Dunleith with her bow,
DR.. Wilson of Walwortb county, jumped
off from her, aud going along to tho
Governor, said few words and pissed
on The Miunehaha was ut tilat time
touching the Duuleith with her bow,
but her stern WAS out in the stream.
The Governor was still walking slowly.
bis eyes fixed on the Miuhehaha, and
hailing the captain.
A moment after DR.. Wilson left him
he heard the Governor fall in. He sank
low, and came up straight. crying ''Hel T."
The Doctor bad nothing but slight
cane, and held it down to the Governor
as he passed down. He grapsed it with
bis whole force, and at once drew it out
Of the Doctors hands, who had nothing
to hold by. .... ..
A moment after, Dr.. Clark, of Racine,
jumped in after the Governor, and catctl-
ing hold Of the wheel of the steamer,
stuck out his feet for the Governor to
take, but he could not reach them, au.l
and after a moments vain beating off
the water, dropped swiftly down tho
stream few rods, and was then seen TO
60 under a barge, after which there was
no hope.
All this transpired almost in m in
slant, while the rest of our party, in the
hurry Of preparation for departure, were
entirely unaware of what was going OH.
When the word came that the Governor
was drowned, all were filled with dis
may, and unspeakable sorrow.
A boat was manned, and party with
a lantern set out Mt once to look for the
body but in the thick darkness nothing
could be done. 1t was then determined
that Gen. Brodhead, DR.. WoIcott. and
Mr.. Stow, of our party, should remain
to find the body, if possible.
The officers of the gunboat Tyler Of
fered their services, and were to fire can
non and drag the river. Every one
there volunteered assistance. aud if it is
possible the remains will he found 1t is
very doubtful, however, if they succeed.
The current is rapid, the river is high,
and runs among bushes in which, if the
body should get caught, it would soon 10
buried up.
