Major Noah H. Ferry.

The sad news of the death Of this ster-
ling man and patriot produced more than
ordinarily gloomy sensation in our com
munity, at the thought that so brave and
good man should have fallen, and ms
name added to the long, mournful death
roll of the myriads sacrificed in the de-
tense of their country.
Major Ferry enlisted as Captain, but
a few months ago, in the 9Th Michigan
Cavalry, was promoted for his soldierly
bearing to Major before leaving camp for
the seat Of war. Having repeatedly re-
fused profored promotion he continued to
act most CALAMITY and efficiently in that
position till he was instantly killed, on
tho Sd inst, while charging with his gal
liant regiment battery of the enemy, at
Gettysburg, Pa.
We have been well acquainted with
Major Ferry from his boyhood, and can
bear testimony to his great moral WORTH
his pure and unexceptionable character in
the public and private walks of life, and
no drawer soldier or officer ever fell than
Major Noah H. Ferry. He will be sadly
missed, not only in the family circle Of
Rev. VIM. M. Ferry, of which he was a
greatly beloved member, but also in our
community, where he was highly esteem
cd and honored. We deeply sympathize
with the relatives of the departed in their
great and irreparsble affection.

ENROLLING INprANs.-Provost Mar
shals in localities inhabited by Indians are
enrolling them as subject to the conscrip
ton manifestly against their will. They
do not relish the idea Of being forced tc
fight in the present case, and strong ap
peals in their behalf have gone up to thei
Great Father, at Washington, and The
War Department, by friends Of the rec
man, that they may be relieved from {
service which may be productive Of mucl
evil and no good if forced upon them
Voluntary enlistments, however, are &C
ceptable. Some forty or fifty have al
ready enlisted in the LIST regiment Sharp

A MAN KILLED.-As the western mai

man was discovered walking upon The
track, towards the train, in a STOPPING pc

did all in his power to warn him of bis
danger, but of no avail. The train, it il
said, must have been running at the rate
of forty miles an hour when it struck the
man, killing him Instantly. The unfor
Itunate person, Mr.. Peck, lived at Saranac

sad occurrence happened. We trust this
sad calamity may admonish everybody
who have occasion to walk upon railroads
Of their danger. They can not be toe

OUR VICTORIES.

The dark night that has seemed for
several weeks past to brood over our ma
tional affairs is rapidly giving place to a
dawn at once bright and glorious. The
news of the triumph Of our arms, during
the last ten days, is truly most cheering
and pregnant with hope that the begin
ming of the end Of this rebellion, if not
the end ITSELF is close at hand. Heaven
grant it! The occupation of Vicksburg,
after siege of forty-seven days, the to-
tai discontinue of Gen. Lees army, after
its inglorious but successful raid into
Pennsylvania and Maryland, almost to its
humiliation, the hasty retreat Of the
forces under Bragg, before the veterans
under the indomitable Rosecrans, are
events that infuse sunshine and Joy into
the heart of every lover Of his country.
We rejoice at the glorious events before
us. May similar events thicken till we
hail once moro that peace for which We
as people and nation sigh-a peace
constitutionally honorable, just and per-
manent. II

The Effect.

Ono Of tho happy effects which the
people have right to expect from the re-
cent great victories, is that they will OBJ
viato the necessity for a draft. With Lee
beaten, Vicksburg fallen, and Port Hud-
son as good as in our possession, the area
of the rebellion must be prodigiously con-
|tracted, and the serious fighting of the
war nearly done. The acts of peace, the
policy of amelioration, by which the dis
|couragement Of the Southern masses will
be ripened into absolute disafection to
the Confederate government, will play the
part, if the administration is wise, and
will, if properly directed, accomplish more
lin the future than all the armies opposed
to them, and they are undoubtedly suffi-
Gent for that purpose, so that the people
will owe debt of gratitude to Grant and
TO Meade for relieving them from the con-
|scription. What tho action of the ad-
ADMINISTRATION will be we do not know. If
their determination is TO wage war Of
determination, to remodel the States, and
to carry out the programme against
slavery, which is on the lip of every abo-
|Iitionist, n million more troops will be
needed, and after they are exhausted, as
they inevitably will be in such crusade,
Ia like amount will be required again; but
liz the administration will wisely use the
men they have now, and will adhere to
THE constitution rs it is, and the Union
Jas it was" the path of peace and reunion
is as clear as sunlight, and the rebellion
will die in ninety days. We wish to fix
the attention of the people upon the ad-
vantages of the situation. We frankly
say that we have little hope that the ad-
|ministration will do what is wisest in this
fortunate emergency; but the key is in
their grasp. If the war continues anoth-
Ter year, it will be because they choose
that it shall continue, and throw away the
good fortune which Providence has cast
upon the country.-Detroh Free Press.

Nor IN FAVOR OF THE WAR.-Will
the Union please inform us how he con-
cludes we are not in favor of tho war as
substantially intimated in his last issue.
We stand ready TO compare notes [ not
boastingly,) with our contemporary, as to
liberality, who has done the most to en-
courage enlistmer:s, either by counsel OF
material aid. How many dollars has
been contributed by the Union Office, and
how many by that of the Ne'Os, either to
tho war or relief fund? Which exhibits
the more liberal sum total? When have
We not favored most vigorous prosecu-
ton of the war? Have we not often
complained of the inactivity exhibited by
the Administration for the drawling, inef-
fectual and unconstitutional conduct Of
the war? If We do not agree with the
Administration in its imbecile policy and
fairly and honestly express that dissent,
is that any reason that We are not in IA
vor Of a vigorous prosecution of the war
till the rebellion is finally crushed out9
We think we can appreciate the mo-
tives of the Union in stigmatizing us as
"copperheads," DC. Is there not little
jealousy Of our growing prosperity, and a
disposition to build up on our downfall ?
If so we count the effort vain.
