A good story is told by the NewburJ
Herald Of young woman 10 that section
who, convinced Of the death Of her hus-
band in recent battle, put on mourning,
drew the bounty money Of the deceased
and then engaged herself to be married
10 another defender Of his country. The
wedding day was appointed, the gifts
made and everything ready, when the
startling news came that she was no Wild
ow, her unreasonable frat having had
the audaoity to be taken prisoner instead
Of being shot, aud 20 return from Rich-
mond alive and we'll! We hope she had
patience with him.

A. l2mO. PIP. 29i. Harper & Bros
The author Of this volume left the Ital-
ian service moro than a year sinoe for
the purpose Of joining the American ar
nv and of describing the evenis of tho
war. He was attached to the army in
Western Virginia until the close OF OPP
erauons In that quarter, and pending the
time for . complete history Of the Rebel
lion, he has dev0led his leisure 10 pre-
paring an exposition Of military science,
AZ taught by the great European masters.
The present work embOdies the results
oil his labor, giving in apofular form the
principles Of the art Of war, as illustra-
ted BY the most famous campaigns and
battles Of modern times. Among the
sphdal features Of the volume which
oommend il 70 tie favorable attention Of
the public. may be noticed its freedom
nom technical phraseology, the complete
view uhichit exhibits Of the scieuce and
arr ol 'ar' instead Of treating a single
asnoct OF the subject, tho abundance and
apposRonsss Of is historical illustrations,
and the precision and olearness Of its
statements Ia matters Of detail. The
practical convenience OF the work IL
greatly increased by the addition OF q

The following extracts from the Car
Gel under which prisoners are exchanged
In the existing war with the Southern
States, are published for the information
Of this army -
"ARTIoLE All Prisoners of War to
be discharged on Parole in ten days after
their capture, and the Prisoners now held,
and those hereafter taken, to be trans
ported to the points mutually agreed
upon, at the expense of the capturing
party. The surplus prisoners not ex-
changed, shall not be permitted to take
up arms again, nor to serve as military
Police, or Constabulary force in any
Fort, Garrison or Field Work held by
either of the respective parties, nor as
Guards Of Prisoners, Depots or Stores,
nor to discharge any duty usually per-
formed by Soldiers, until exchanged I'M

"ARTIcLE 7.-All prisoners of War now
held on either side, and all prisoners
hereafter taken, shall be sent with all
reasonable dispatch to A. NJ. Aikens, be-
low Dutch Gap, on the James River, Vir-
ginia, or to Vicksburg, on the Missis-
sippi River, in the State Of Mississippi
and there exchanged, or parolod until
such exchange can be effected, notice
being previously given by each party Of
the number of Prisoners it will send, and
the time when they will be delivered at
these points respectively, and In case the
vicissitudes Of war shall change the mill
itary relations of the places designated
in this article to the contending parties,
30 as TO render the same inconvenient for
the delivery and exchange of Prisoners,
other places, bearing as nearly as may be
the present local relations Of said places
to the lines of said parties, shall be by
mutual agreement substituted. But
nothing in this Article contained shall
prevent the Commanders Of the opposing
Armies from exchanging prisoners or re-
leasing them on Parole at other points
mutually agreed upon by said Comman-
ders"
In pursuance Of the terms Of the Car
tel, it is ordered, that all officers and
soldiers captured by this army, be immo-
diately paroled and sent to tho nearest

Rolls being sent TO the Provost Marshal
General at these Headquarters, whose
duty il will be to see that such Prisoners
are promptly forwarded for exchange.
No Confederate Officers or Soldiers,

WEEKLY (CAL.) LEDGER.-Mr. Thomas
Springer, foreman aud printer of the Grant
County FcrcH during tie hrosrietorship aud
editorial career OF Col. ]. M Goodhue, in the
years AS, 46 and Al, afterwards FOR a short
time partner with Mr.. Houghion in The Ga
lena Gazette office, went TO California, we
think, in the year 40, and started newspaper,
the name ef which we have forgotten, but il
was Iaw and order, democratic paper. Over
eight years ago be started the Amador Ledger,
al Jackson, Cal. Last year, he lost the Office
and all his property, by fire, but with the
help Of friends he soon got another Office and
re- recommended the ledger. Mr. Springer was
always a rigid democrat, but has been with the
war party from the day the rebels attacked
TT. Sumter. In late number Of the Ledger,
Mr.. Springer says, speaking peace democrats,
s'they are leaving Ca ifornia, one by one to pre-
vent suspicion to Join JEFF. Davis; d. S. Ferry
aud che Robinson left the other day, both tel
Inc Their friends oftheir design, yet nc demo-
crat charges them with leaving the party;
were these mca to join Ike union army they
would be called recreants, traitors aid aboli-
tiobists; perfectly democratic to destroy the
Government but in conflict with the democrat
ic party Of California 10 fight for the old flag
aud constitutions When these men get
through fighting for jeff. Davis and return to
California, which may God forbid, they will
be received with open arms into the den ocrat-
ic party and welcomed as PATROLS"
Again, in another editorial Springer says
"Why is it that none but peace democrats
leave California tojoin the rebels, and why is
il that editors of so-called democratic papers
never condemn men for leaving with such view
nor censure the act Answer, they have SYM
rathies, not for their injured country, but for
Tie traitors They invented the untruths and
by oftrepeatng think to make men believe that
the administration is the 'corruptest gouern-
sneat Npon edrih,' but they have never word
TO utter against the government OF JEFF. Davis
never word And such is California dem
oeracy. Yet, the Ledger and other democratic
war bapers are censut,d by these rebels calling
themselves depiocrats, for wha'; why, for rec
reancy to democratic principles Yes, we are
recrsanis indeed. if democratic principles con-
sist in a4hering TO the enemies the union in
time fwar--recrcants 10 all such principles
as oppose the war or talk and print lies TO be-
get public discomfort against the government at
this hour Of weakness and peril"
So it viii be seen from What our old
friend Springer says, that California democra-
CIV is essentially the same there as in Wisconsin
with this difference. that in that state, the
peace democrats frequently 60 and join JEFF.
Davis, whereas, in Wisconsin they stay at
home to vote ard breed all the tisqentepi they
can.

EgA copy ofthe Memphis Bulletin
is received from come soldier friend, con
tanning a marked item copied from an
Alabama rebel paper, the State Register,
which compliments the Wisconsin supreme
court in ibis way:
"The decision was unanimous by an adj
ministration court, thatthe anti-draft riot
ers were not amenable to the military
law. This leaves the Lincoln administra-
ton powerless to enforce Its draft orders
in that State, and volunteering, to use
Yankee phrase, is 'played out" The con-
stitution of the Old union, with all the
liberal constructions Of Yankee courts, con-
tains no provisions, except adverse ones,
for carrying on war with seeding
States"

do you like the new allies, the rebels |?
Hadn't you better sell cut to the Copper
heads?
