The Greek Fire.

The preparation of the ancient Greek
Fire has been, for long time, among the
"lost arts " The Chicago Tribune says
the Greek Fire shell in use at Charleston
is the invention, patented a few months
since, of citizen of Buffalo, and adopted
by the Government. The base of the ter
rible agent is petroleum, chemically COM
bined with other highly inhammable in
gradients, the whole forming an utterly
inextinguishable compound, which, once
ignited, burns triumphant over all ordinary
means Of quenching fire. 1t burns even in
water, and can only be put out by being
burnt out. This fearful war agent is con-
tanned in light metallic chamber, en-
closed in the common form of percussion
shell, that, itself discharged by striking
the object aimed at, ignites the fire, which
is scattered broadcast, its fierce flames Civ
ing new terror to the perils of war.

history of the currency Of our enemies, since
the beginning of the war, is humiliating to u.s.
Either had foreign credits both had powerful
established State governments to back them.
We were united in favor of the war; they were
divided. They have kept twice the number in
the field that we have upon half the money,
and paid their soldiers better than we have.
Their treasury notes are still at 4 discount of
less than thirty per cent; ours are more than
one thousand The reason is solely that their
government has better understood and more
firmly adhered to the true principles of curren-
cy than ours. In all else we had an advantage.
TooMBs proceeds, and says that 'taxa-
ton, rigid and comprehensive, and loans,
are the only ways by which sound cur
rency can be obtained" He thus con-
clud"s: "We must act and that quickly.
The public interest and public safety no
longer allow delay. Our present system
is utterly insupportable. 1t is upsetting
the very foundation of private rights !;
daily weakening public confidence in our
cause at home and abroad sowing among
the people dangerous discontents, which
are daily deepening and widening. Pat
riotism demands that all good men should
unite to correct the evil"

Prem allure.

The reports published on Sunday, of
the surrender of Sumter and blowing up of
Wagner, were premature, and are contra
dicted in our dispatches.
1t will be we'll to receive such reports with
some care, unless they are officially con-
tirmed in the same issue. The Govern
ment is net in the habit of keeping back
good news, and when any Of the impor-
tant defences of Charleston are fairly ours,
the gushing STANTON will let the public
know it.
1t is not likely the city will be taken
Immediately, OR utterly destroyed by long
range Smelling. The destruction of Sum-
ter is only one of the preliminaries of its
capture. The next thing is to complete
the conquest of Morris Island. The storm
of shot that has been hurled upon Sumter
will be turned upon Wagner and Gregg,
and the iron clads, undisturbed by Sumter,
will give the obstinate sand batteries the
benefit of a cross fire. In the meantime,
the regular approaches upon Wagner will
be necessarily advanced, and if the rebels
dc not run away under cover of the night,
their forts will prove man-traps for them.
When Morris Island is wholly ours, Gen.
GILMORE will probably turn his attention
to dislodging the rebels from James Island,
and that will be another tedious job The
fleet has still to overcome the harbor OBJ
structions, and brave the torpedoes with
which the channels are strewn. Sumter

The Monroe Doctrine,

Mr.. Everett closes an able paper in the
New York Ledger, upon the policy of the
United States in Central America, with
the following remarks upon the Monroe
doctrine in its present application:
viii add but two remarks at present upon
the subject of this much maligned Monroe
doctrine. First, that when the ground on
which it rests was originally assumed by Pres
ident MOnrOe's administration, it was. as far as
1t bore upon the affairs of Spanish America,
with the concurrence and warm approval of the
British -ecretary of State for Foreign Affairs,
Mr.. George Canning. He regarded it as very
important step. in furtherance of the policy
then deemed of vital importance to England,
viz: that of counteracting the design enter
tanned by Spain, backed by the Holy Alliance.
of recolOnizing the Spanish American States.
Secondly, that when Louis Napoleon has es-
tablished few more empires on the American
continent, England will perhaps again view the
Monroe doctrine with MIR. Canning's favorable
eye She may then also, regret the counte-
nance she has extended to the Calhoun doc
trine of secession, which, by paralyzing the
Government of the United States, has enabled
imperial France to commence the execution OF
the most high handed measures OF the Holy
Alliance. But the end is not yet.

The Draft In Minnesota.

Captain SEE, Provost Marshal of the
outhern District, informs us that the en-
rollment in his department has been COM
pleted for some weeks, and that he is
ready to proceed with the draft, but he
declines to give any information as to the
time when the drawing will take place, or
the number to be drawn We find, how
ever, in the Rochester Post, an item
which may throw some light on the last
point. The Post says:
The time for the draft in Minnesota is not
yet determined, or at least made public; but if
we were to venture another guess, we should
place the time about the 14th of September
Captain See has received six hundred and
twenty-six complete outfits for the new con-
scripts, which looks very much as if that was
the number of men Uncle Sam calculates to
take from this District in any event. Probably
over one thousand persons will be drafted from
this District, but the exempts will reduce the
number at least as low as the number above
indicated.
If the above guess is correct, the num-
Der called for from the State is about two
thousand, which will probably nett suf-
ficient number to fill up our organized
regiments to the maximum.
In Captain KEIrH's District, comprising
the northern part Of the State, we under
stand the enrolment is not yet compile
ted, but that it will be in the course of a
week or ten days. Those who are on the
sunny side of thirty-five, and bachelors
under forty five, may look out for the rev.
olution of the "wheel of fortune" about
the middle of this month.

Overland Route to bayfield,.

To theSEditor of the Pioneer:
Although you have lately published an
account of this popular route, it may not
be uninteresting to your readers to know,
that since that time, several parties have
performed the trip from St. Paul to Bay
field and back, and were delighted with it
Mrs. Bishop Whipple, Mrs. and Miss
Nixon, Mr.. Dana, (of Bostor) DR.. Isham
and lady, (of Connecticut) are among those
thus alluded to; and, On Thursday last, a
party consisting of G. E. Rittenhouse,
ESQ.,, three of his daughters, his son, Miss
Whita!l and Miss F. Riley, OF George
town, and Miss Kall and J. F. CalIan, of
Washington, ID. c., arrived here from
Bayfield,, overland, and represented the
trip as perfectly charming.
Travelling only by day they were six
days on the road, in private conveyances
without change of teams and they all,
particularly the ladies, speak in unmeas-
ured terms of the entire trip.
Taking their ,wn time, they travelled
on the average thirt7- miles a day,
fishing and hunting all the way, they found
pleasure without toll. AS choice, they
camped out one night, and prepared two
of their meals Il III pic mic. They found
at all the stations good accommodations,
and the passing through successive belts
of noble pines, lofty cellars, and majestic
oaks, over smooth and easy roads, sufli-
GENTLY shaded and airy, with every varie-
ty of soil and exposure, the scene WIS
"ever charming, ever new" and they
were as little fatigued after their ride of
21O miles as if they had travelled but a
single day, while they are loud in their
praises of the road and the surrounding
country-its beautiful prairies, lofty TIM
Der, and numerous lakes, following each
other in pleasing variety.
The whole party enjoyed the finest ap-
petites during the journey. and at each
and all the stations they found the tables
of their hosts to groan under the substan-
tial viands spread upon them It may he
invidous to make comparisons, but it wculd
be unjust to Mrs. Taylor at that delight

Person al Bravery.

An "Old Soldier" of the Louisville
Journal, furnishes some remarkable in
stances Of personal bravery:
In the Indian fight which took place near
the mouth Of Cannon De Sbelle, in November,
1860, private Wilson of Company l, Mounted
R11es, displayed the most remarkable courage
when he saw his captain surrounded by the
bowling NayajOes, he dashed recklessly into
the fray, killing two Indians and wounding one
or two Others In an Incredibly short time. In
the melee he was wounded, but he never left
the field until after hs bad travelled some miles
IN pursuit of the flying foe. In this fight the
gallant Capt. Mclean, Of the Rifles, was killed,
and, strange to say, his fate was foretold in a
jest which passed between him and Gen. Cam
by at the setting out Of the expedition. They
were standing near the quarters of the latter,
when Hitter was cnIried past them Mclean
iestingly remarked that the litter was not
Dng enough or strong enough to bear a
wounded man, to which Candy replied, Take
care Captain how you Jest; you NAV try it
first yourself" The words proved lut too
true. Capt. Mclean was the first MAJ, laced
upon tha1litter; it was too short ana il broke
under hstweight.
In June, 1860. Corporal Coney, of Company
K, 9TH Infantry, was attacked By party of
some twenty Indians. Yet, sucn was his pres
ence Ct mind that he let them wound him once
or twice before he fired g. shot; but every shot
he fired Che was armed with revolver brought
man. He killed three and wounded two of
the enemy, and knowing that to fire his last
shot would be certain death, he kept them at
bay by continually turning and pointing his
pistol at them, until succor arrived from herd
guard which overheard the firing and fastened
to his relief. This brave man was wounded in
six different places, still he continued on his
feet for some time, even aftsr the Indians had
been driven away 1t may not be amiss to
state here that the .>avajoes were armed prn-
cipally with bows and arrows, the arrows be-
Ing pointed with large heavy iron points The
force with which they discharged these arrows
was truly surprising: saw one drive ain az
row through the pummel of Il saddle, a SOL
dierS great coat strapped thereon, and had the
watslbeit plate net stopped its progress, it is
probable it would have killed the soldier.
