IN MEMORlAM.

On Friday evening last brief note
from Col. Stephen Miller, accompanied by
a notice in the St. Paul Press, brought
the mournfal intelligence Of the death Of
his son, Lieut. Wesley F. Miller, who fell
during the terrible battle at Gettysburg,
while lighting bravely with bis company.
The truth seemed too painful to realize,
and doubt cherished by hope, served TO
soften the sad news until subsequent con-
armations proved the first report only too
true.
Wesley Funk sliller was born in Har-
risburg, Pa, April LIST, ls4l. At Dick
ioson Seminary, Williamsport, no rcceiv-
ed a fine academic education. Fora short
time he served as composition in the Office
Of the Harrisburg Telegraph, when in
the spring Of 1858 he came to St. Cloud
and was engaged for two years in tho DEM
ocRAr Office, aud at intervals during the
subsequent year in the St Paul Press and
st. Anthony Ns~s establishments. On
the breaking ont Of the war he enlisted,
lspril 20th, 1851, as private in the slo:
rious First Minneseta, of which his tath-
or was Lieutenant Colonel and with it
won reputation for gallantry and fearless
ness ut the battle II Buzz Run. On the
5th Of August, same year, be MAS appoint
ed I'd Lieutenant n the 7th Regiment u
S. Infantry, aid September 9th was pro-
noted to LIST Lieutenant in the same regi-
ment. On account of his skill and rrof-
cheney in military t'ctics he was employed
Is drill master IN Fort Columbus, New
York IIarbor; and while there gave thor
vugh instructions to many company Of
ticers. In November, rSe2, he was or
dercd to join his rcgim~~., j. siekles' Brig
ado, and take part in the active operations
then to be inaugurated--s change he had
often petitioned for. In the fatal battles
Of Fredericksburg and Charlottesville he
borc gallant part, receiving from the Of
6cers in command tie name Of being Me
best line officer in the regiments praise
we'll deserved. In this last fearful encoun-
ter az Gettysburg, when Slckles' Brigade,
ever sent to the post where danger was
the greatest, went forward to meet the on
pouring columns Of Lees army, and stag
gcring their impetuous charge, drove them
lack soattered, crushed and broken,

United States Uniform, and they are more

has rendered them, secession will soon die.
