The rejoicings in Geneva, in honor of the

ment her light ball dress was set on fire and
enyeloped her in flames. The poor victim

shrieked loudly for assistance; but she received
fearful injuries, and died after few days dread

A letter from the Forty ninth n. 7. regi
ment adds one to many romantic incidents OF
the present war A few days since, corporal
in the Twentieth N 7. regiment, was taken
sick, and had to be placed in the regimental
hospital where in thecourse of attendance upon
the sick soldier, it was discovered that female
form had been concealed under corporal jack
ct and trowsers. The woman had been with
the regiment since it first entered the field, two
years ago, her sex never suspected. Vt course,
there was love at the bottom OF the affair, out
it detracts somewhat from the romance OF the
story to learn that the adventurous Amazon
has been tenting all the time with her lover.

A Few Queer Things.

The Point Pleasant Register, under the
head ia Few Queer Things,' gets off
the following very descriptive paragraphs, of
classes of men that infest every community,
ours among the rest. What it says is true
us preaching:
We know lazy, shiftless, triAing devils,
who never paid dollar of taxes in their
lives, who are bowling twelve out of twenty
four hours about the enormous taxes we
are burdened with
We know men, the seat of whose panta-
looms displays the tag of distress at half
mast, who could not buy toe nail ofa mig.
ger il able bodied slaves were selling ut a
dollar dozen, who fly into passion ii they
hear OF an attack upon slave property" :.
We know men who never did DAYS
work in their lives--save when borrowing or
stealing WAS impossible--who are howling
like wolves about free iSggers coming into
West Virginia to compete with the labor OF
poor white men.
We know men who never had an entire
dollar in their lives, spend hours in expati
ating upon the dangers OF paper currency.
There are queer people in the world. =
Nlno-tenths OF all the talk on the above
topics is done by the classes mentioned.

A Word about the Election next
Monday


Next Monday is the day fixed BY law for
the election of Township officers and officers
Of cities and incorporated towns. Usually
it is very difficult to get good men on these
tickets. These offices generally go begging.
We regard this Springs election, however,
as very important one. Thousands of
men who have acted with the opposition
are just now undecided what course to pur
sue. You can secure them to the Loyal
side, ifyou will just put good tickets in
nomination, and give the matter your at.
tention. Talk with your neighbors. Talk
earnestly with them. They are loyal, but
are misled and deceived by disloyal men. -
Remove their prejudices. Convince them
that we have all got to stand or fall with
this Government. Show them that We all
stand on one common deck, and when
might and the tempest close around us, +"
we Will all go to ruin together. &
We implore the Union men of every
Township in Belmont County to go to work,
and do not cease until sundown on next
Monday. We have already given great
deal OF precious blood in the two years of
war. Let us not insult the memory of our
noble dead by electing men to Office who
have heaped reproaches upon the cause in
which they fell
