BUTTER may be made almost as well
at this season as in june. if the feed Of
the COWS is good enough. Sugar-beets
and carrots, with plenty of sweet hay
and corn-stalks cut up and favored
with bran, corn meal, or cotton seed or
other oil cake with salt as condiment,
will make yellow butter without an
MOTTO, and plenty of it.

with refuse grain, bran, ard unsound

there be any on hand. Early made
pork costs less and usually commands
the best price. Keep the pens clean

your posterity. That you may complete the
mission to which you have devoted yourselves,
will require of you such exertions in the fu-
ture as you have made in the past, and con-
tinuOus self-denial which rejects every con-
sderation at variance with the public service,
as unworthy of the holy cause in which you
are engaged. United as we are IN common
destiny, obedience and a cordial corporation
are essential. There is no higher duty than
that which requires one to exert and render
to all what is due to their station. He who
sOwS the seed of discomfort AID distrust pre-
pares for Il harvest of slaughter and defeat.
70 your gallantry, energy and fortitude
you crown this harmony wItA due subordina-
ton and cheerful support of lawful authority.
When the war shall be ended, the highest
need Of praise will be due, and probably
be gwen, to him who has claimed the leas;
for himself in proportion to the service he has
rendered. And the bitterest self-reproach
which may hereafter haunt the memory of
any one will be to him who has allowed sell
fish aspirations to prevail over his desire for
the public good. l tervently hope that this
terocous war, so unjustly waged against our
country, may soon end, and that with the
blessing Of peace, you may be restored to
your homes and useful pursuits; and pray
our Heavenly Father may cover you with the
shield of His protection in your battles, and
endow you with the virtues which viii close
your trials in victory complete.

The seth Regiment.

letter from the Both, dated Knoxville,
Oct. l6, gives some interesting particulars of
the late fight at Blue Springs, in which Lieut..
Col Goodell was wounded. We quote:
1--WE left Knoxville Oct Sd, on the cars for
Bulls Gap. Tenn. There we remained one
week waiting for the rest of the force to come
up, and last Saturday started on the advance
towards GreenyilIe. AT Blue Springs, five
miles from where we started we overlook our
cavalry engaged with the. rebels, formed line
of battle in.a cornfield as support to the
cavalry. We stopped there only few min
utes when we advanced a mile and found
some western troops trying to drive the reb-
els out of the woods and take hill in front
thai would be a good position if we had to
fight the next day. They had four large regi-
mentS to do it with, and the colonel in COM
mand told Gen. Burnside that his men could
not do it, as the rebels were mean enough to
keep behind logs and trees and fire on his
men.
Sour brigade of four small regiments took
their place. The 45th Pennsylvania went in
to skirmsh, and the other three as supports
found out where the rebels were and advanced.
We went out of the woods into wheat field
AMI over two hills under fire, and halted in a
narrow strip of woods to rectify the lines be-
fore going up the last hill All this was done
with run and cheer such as Union men
can give. The rebels could not stand, but
made for the woods and out of sight We
went up the last hill with anoth@ cheer,
but when we got to the top found ourselves
right in front of battery of six guns, that
opened on us, and we had advanced so far
that the regiments on the right and left had
not kept up, and they gave the bullets to us
from both sides We had orders to fall back
just over the brow of the hill; did so, and
then the colonel was wounded. A shell
burst just in front of him, some pieces
tearing his clothes, and one hitting him in the
leg, half way between the knee and hip, 60
ing in to the bone. l went down to see him
yesterday. He is doing frst-rate, is in the
best OF spirits, and has but little pain. He will
be home in two months. Two lieutenants
and three men were wounded on top of that
same hill. The brigade has received the
thanks OF Gen. Burnside tor the style in which
they took the hill The loss in the four regi-
ments is fifty men killed and wounded"

Mortester Daily Spy.
The ThIrty-FOurth Regiment.

An officer in this regiment, writing to his
friends in this county, gives the following ac
count of the late engagement near Charles
ton, Va: =
yesterday, Sunday the 18th, word came
that the 9th Maryland regiment had been COB
bled up by the rebels under Gen. Smith, with
some fifteen hundred cavalry and mounted
infantry. We started Immediately; our COM
pany followed up the batteIy (the 18th Indi-
ana, to support it. We had a hard time of
it, for they ran their horses most of the way,
and we had to go at double quick. We start
ed with the rest of the regiment, but when we
halted two miles beyond Cbarlestown, they
were two miles behind. When they came up
we marched on again two miles further, and
overlook the rebels. Our battery took up It's
position and we filed to the right, and adj
vanced. The enemy commenced throwing
shells at us, but did us no damage. They al
so gave Us Il few discharges of railroad iron.
We tore down fence to let the infantry pass
and then our company was ordered to charge
a stone wall about 100 yards off, with Co. G.,
Capt. Leach in command of the party. We
went towards the wall at double quick and
half the company got over, but were
soon ordered to fall back, as near five
hundred cavalry were close upon u.s.
A line of battle was now formed, and we
charged about half mile, the rebels skedad-
ding Finally we threw out skirmishers on
the right and left of the road, and moved by
the flank. Our skirmshers drove the enemy
some two miles up the road, when they sud
denly opened upon us with their muskets and
the balls few thick and fast, and sung around
our ears in fine style. Not q man of our req.
qment Shirked has duty, all stood up like
men, and took what the rebels sent. We
staid here until our artillery came up and
shelled them out. We lost at this point two
killed and four wounded. The Skin
mishers we sent out soon came in.
They had lost one officer, Lieut.. Cobb,
Co. Z, badly wounded, since dead, and two
men wounded. We were now seventeen
miles from home, with the rebs in our rear
and twice our number. We started for camp,
and arrived at midnight, foot-sore, tired and
hungry; as we did not take any rations. We
marched thirty-four miles. besides going
through fields and forests, and driving the
rebels five miles. Lieut. Cobb was wounded
in the head by a rebel sharpshooter. After
he was struck he gave his orders, and told his
men TO give it to the rebels. He continued
to give orders, until he was unable to do So
He was a very brave man; we shall all miss
him. One Of our killed was the color guard
He stood up with the United States flag until
ordered by the captain to lie down. In the
act Of doing so, he was shot through the head
The 34th is good on inspection, on march,
or in fight"
