THE RIGHT SORT OF TALK.

n
The 2lst, sd and s5th Ind.
regiments-the frsi stationed at
Bonnet Care, La, and the
second and third at Brentwood,
Tenn.--have recently adopted
stirring resolutions In regard to
the "Peace' men at home. They
denounce the majority of the
Legi stature of their State, and
lndorse Gov. Morton and the
Administration. Two of the
resolutions adopted by the 2Ist
regiment are of special interest.
They read as follows:
60. That those who say 'the
soldiers will not fight for the
Union, under the emancipation
proclamation, falsely represent
the sentiments OF the soldlerv OF
the STATE OF Indiana, and that
they do here publicly and firmly
declare, that they will fight for
the Union until ii is fully re-
stored, if our superiors will but
lead us on, though a hundred
emancipation prociamatiors are
issued, and diSloyal men destroy
our homes and make desola;e OUT
native State.
80. That if the resources O
the United States are insufficient
to support its large army anc
navy without peeuniary embar,
rassment to the Government, we
will serve her gratis, and trust
to God, our strong hands, and th'
fortunes of war, Tor our food anc
raiment."

say, not by way Of fattery, that our House
OF Representatives is the model popular

Mn. EpIroR-Dedr SIR: Knowing
YOU to be true friend to Union soldiers
| thought il would not be amiss to send
you few lines, leaving it to you to de-
termine whether worthy of place in your
columns or not. Your endorsement OF
the measures which have been adopted
for the suppression of this rebellion will
ever enlist the favor of the soldiers in
your behalf.
The 9th day of this month will make
TWO years since our regiment was sworn
into tho service OF the Z. S. a. Our
trials and successes are well known toyou,
and trust appreciated by all true and
loval citizens of our patron State 1 can
hardly realize the astounding fact that
our beloved State has traitors Uithin her
oten 5osom-"men who can smile, and
murder while they smile" l will not
call ehem men, but monsters, who have
with their .sweltered venom" done eve-
ny thing to discourage our brave soldiers
who are struggling for the principles Of
free government.
/ will relate to YOU circumstance
which occurred TO me this afternoon while
ON guard | heard Kissing noise close
TO me in my rear. Upon turning around
pc received it to be huge rattle-snake in
the very act of springing at me. To level
nv gun and fire was the act of a second.
did not discuss in my mind at the time
whether it was best to withhold my FIRE
and save cartridge of Uncle Sam ., or
risk the life of one Of his soldiers by
adopting some other means of destroying
my enemy. got rid of my enemy by
shooting him, which of all other means
that we Lave tried, we find the most eff
fectual for getting rid of set of traitors.
Mr., Editor, we have rebels within our
line Is down here in Mississippi who are
"angels Of light" compared with the Cop
perheads of our State. They have out
ragged our army to such an extent that |
dread the fearful rctribution which is
waiting them. 1t may be severe, but 1t
will be just. have no higher claims in
this army than that Of "high private, !"
but my country can have my services for
fvo years to come, if needs be, to crush
out rebellion both North and South. As
matter Of course, look upon the Cop
perheads North as mere disafected fac
ton, but like skunks who emit a dsa-
greeable odor, when brought directly
under our elfaetory organs, We cannot
help noticing them occasionally.
The health of company A, and of the
regiment generally, is good.
am, respectfully, yours,
