FRIESD KEELER:-There has nothing of i'm
portance transpired since last wrote you, more
than that long looked-for Paymaster gave us a
call, and paid us off mp 10 the first of January.
Green Backs are now as plenty as the "gray-
backs" were before the former come. You may
not know what "gray-backs" arc. Some call
them Iiee but we call them gray backs. Some

home, while others spend theirs for every tri-
fling thing they see. am very sorry to see so
many Of them do this.
Some Of our boys are deserving and going
home. There were seven deserted from compa-
ny G and one from company A yesterday. We
had one man desert about two weeks since 1t
will do them no good to desert, for the Govern
ment is determined to hunt them up and punish
them according to the rules of war. They think
that they have Jared hard since they have been
in the service, but there are thousands of our
poor soldiers that have Jared ten times worse
without murlnur. We fare extremely well
here and our burdens are comparatively easy
and there is no just cause for complaint.
Now may be mistaken, but blame their
friends at home for this in great measure They
write dscouraging letters to them. This they
should not do, but on the contrary should en-
courage them in every way. If their friends
have troubles and discouragements, let them
keep them to themselves The soldier has a
good many perplexing scenes to pass through
and then discoaraging letter from home will
put him down below par, when on the other
hand let him get an encouraging letter and he
is all right-he can perform his duty checrfully.

BLOOD VIII Tell.

When the rebels call US mudsills low hire
lings, starving operatives, mean, cowardly
wretches, We should remember that they are
only repeating the abuse which the tories in the
Revolution layished upon General Washington
and his patriotic army. One Of these tories ad-
dressed letter full Of scurrilous abuse to the
Continental Congress, in which be spoke OF the
patriots Of the Revolution as Glow and lousy
beggars, rebel tailOrs, lawyers, pimps. parsons
and cobblers."
We, who are the true descendants OF those
men, and who are maintaining the same cause
which they fought for, must not be surprised il
we receive from our foul -mouthed enemy the
came kind Of abuse. When rebel calls loyal
men names it is only the old tory blood in him

compliments TO Major Eaton aud Capt. Russell,

surrender of the rebels and their return to 10y

Within the past few days Union meetings
have been held in Ballville township, one at the
Nudge School House and one at the Dawson
School House Both were well attended The
former was addressed by Judge John L. Greene,
and the latter very ably by A. Collier. Butwe
regret to learn, as we do, that disposition to
create disturbance at Mr.. Golfers meeting
was manifested, and that he was frequently in
terrupted during the course of his speech. II
seems to us that persons who do not wish to lis
ten to Union speeches. should keep away from
Union meetings. The proper place for then
isin the ranks Of the Army of JEFF. Davis. Thi'
Friday evening another meeting win be held
in the same township at the Batesole Schoo
House, and speeches will be made by Messrs
Caples, Camfeld and others. See notice of NEE
