Death Of a Brave Soldier.

Tho untmely death of Charles Stansell,
Co. G.. 4lst Ohio, deserves from me more
than q passing notice. Some time since,
while iu camp with his regiment ut Ready
vilIo Tom, difficulty arose between him
and another toamster. in which starsel was
bit with club upon the head. ErysipoIas
set in. and few days since he died.
Charles stansell was tho fearless driver of
o four horse team from Murfreesboro to
Nashville on that memorable New Years
day of 1868, when in rough army wagon,
Lieut.. wocott and myself were being con
veyed to hospital. lie was tho one who
drove us on the run that day for eight miles,
and would not stop, but rushed on, beedlcss
of our protestations and threats, over seem
ingly impossible objects, thus sayiog our
team, our wagon, and our lives, all of which
would have been sacrificed had we fallen in
to the hands of the robols, who pressed us
so closely that the third wagon in our roar
was captured and burned. Riding his wheel.
horse no lashed tho Others into mad run
and by his coolness and undauntod bravery
while musket balls were whizzing all around
him, d.ovo US safely through. Snch the
circumstances of our acquaintance with
him, who will wouder at our unutterablt
sadness on hearing of his untimely death
and in their sudden and overwhelming nf
Fiction his relatives and friends have oul
beart-felt sympathy. Green grow the grass
over his patriot grave. E. A. f.

HOW A FEMALE SHOULD DRESS.
The following extract from Tobin's comedy Of The
Honeymoon might be read by of our bellies with
great advantage provided they would follow the adj
vice given by the Duke:
Duke, I'll have gllttering gewgaws stuck about
you,
To stretch the gaping eyes of idiot wonder,
A nd make them stare upon piece of earth
As ON the star wrought hrmament-no feathers
To wave as streamers to your vanity
Nor cumbroue silk, that, with its rustling sound,
Makes proud the flesh that bears il. She is adorned
Amply, that in her hu stands eyes looks lovely
The trusst mirror that an honest wife
Can see her beauty in.
JuliGna. l shall observe, sir. s.-r
Duke. should like 10 see you in the dress
last presented you.
Jut The blue ne. sir2 azH57
D,ske No, loye-tLe white. Thus modestly attired
A haf-blown rose stuck in thy braided hair;
With no more diamonds than those eyes a re made Of
No deeper rubies than compose thy lips,
Nor pearls more prec cious than inhabit them;
With the pure red and white, which that same hand
Which blends the rainbow mingles in Thy ch eks;
This wellproportioned form (thiak not hatter)
In graceful motion 10 harmonious sounds,
And thy free tresses dareing in the wind
Fhoul't fix as much observance as chaste danes
Can meet without blush.

A Notifying Event.
From the Examiner, 10th |

The unexpected misadventure on the
banks Of the Rappahannock occupies pub
lie attention in most tdisagreeab!e manner
but the scanty intelligence received from
that quarter is still insufficient TO under
stand or estimate it fully. 1t is said that
the cavalry had been ordered to the rear
for the purpose of recruiting their horses,
and hence the enemy was enabled to attack
without ordinary warning or preparation.
1t is also reported that Hays brigade did
not number more than 500 or Goo men, and
that the loss in prisoners was very much
below what has been supposed However
these things may be, let US hope that an
event so serious and mortifying may have
the good effect of putting conclusion to
the series of similar accidents which have
rendered thsGsghborhood of Brandy Sta
ton and 1elley's Ford an ill-omened
grouad.
What else will Come of it will be Sc
speedily known that speculation would b,
imprudent. Naturally, it might be suppos
ed that the success should tempt Meade t,
immediate battle on an extensive scale
} But he is cautious. He is unwilling t
/ tread the path of his predecessors. Th
capture of two brigades may be suficien

The Position In Tennessee.
From the Examiner IL.

The armies still confront each other in
Tennessee, and the struggle may be renew,
ed there at any moment The lull there can
be only temporary, for the indications are
too clear to doubt that the enemy is deter
mined and preparing for battle. The cor
respondent Of the Atlanta Intelligencer
writes from Missionary ridge:
Our extreme right now occupies Loudon,
the enemy having evacuated their fortica.
tions on our approach, which now gives us
the command of the Tennessee River at
that point, and brings our forces within
twenty-three miles Of Knoxville, under
cover of the enemy's own works. 1t is ex-
pected that there will be important move
ments in this direction at some future da Y
as our near proximity to Burnsides army
naturally suggest.
Our troops are painting for move, hav-
ing become tired Of bivouac life, especially
on these dreary heights and swampy val
leys. The health of our men, considering
their late exposure to cold rains, is very
good The most of the men now in our
army have become well seasoned and har-
dened to camp life and duties. A number,
however, are suffering from colds, &c, but
no serious complaints.
Three thousand fine, heavy English blan
kets have been distributed among Brecken
ridges division, which were greatly needed
and if the Government and people will con
tinue to provide for our soldiers, they will
gradually be more comfortable. Our band;
play mig ght and morning, and our boys are
cheerful and in good spirits.
