PROCLAMATION BY THE Gov
ERNOR.
To the People Of Minnesota.

The deficiency in the quota of the State is
less than fourteen hundred men,-the liberal
Government bounties have been extended to
the first of April next, and one more united
effort will supply that number and maintain
the reputation of Minnesota -i.a
1t is due to the old organizations that their
ranks should be filed, and until that be accom-
would seem inappropriate. therefore earn
estly invoke the patriotism of the State to
place beside the veterans of Minnesota this
further contribution of fourteen hundred men
to the great cause of the Union.
While the old regiments have equal claims
upon our sympathies, and all should be
promptly strengthened, I may say that, if the
First Regiment Minnesota Volunteers shall be
filled to the minimum, or Whereabouts, by the
LIST of April, I have the assurance of Brigadicr
General Sibley, commanding the District, that
he will make the necessary application with
myself, to have it placed upon the frontier in
lieu of the gallant Sixth, the officers and men
of which desire southern campaign.
I have not doubt that such an application
to the War Department will be successful.
Let it be remembered that by the blessing of
Providence, the present will be the closing
year of the war,-that an early discharge will
not reduce the liberal bounties paid by the
government and that, if we fail in this holy
duty, the draft must .f'olloU.
l recently said to large audience that
through your Partially was Governor of the
bravest men and noblest women ON earth and
now appeal to my fellow soldiers of the Min
nesOta First-tO the towns deficient in their
quotas,-a to the citizens generally, to aid
me in saving our noble State from the stigma
of compulsory draft.
To those who shall more Immediately respond
to this appeal, have only to say that ;iy-
ing. your sacrifices will he appreciated, and
falling, you will illustrate the truth of the de-
claratiOn, that

In an Grafton at San Jose, on the 4th of
July, George Barstow remarked that
There are writers who inform us that the
dog is the natural servant of man. because
when found on the wild plains of Asia, if he
chance to encounter a man, he comes crouch
ing at his feet and fawns and affectionately
licks his hand, in token of acknowledgment
that man is his master. In the same way
the Copperhead of the North is the natural
servant of the slave power. Wherever he
finds it he crouches and fawns before it, like
the dog before his master"
The Copperhead like carrion bird, be-
fouls his own nest. At the approach of-dan-
ger these lepers of their race crawl into the
ground and hiss, or soaring above the threat
ened danger, flap their butternut wings and
cry s.peace. peace. peace" while there is no
peace, and the robber divides their heritage.
The Copperhead dog will not fight on his own
dung hill, but fawn and lick the spittle from
a traitors lips.
A Northern Coppe,heaa IS tile meanest
,rQrk Of God. To him there is no pride of
country, no dignity Of nature, no love of
home. The rise, progress or fall Of great
nation concerns him not. Its partition into
warning factions exeites not his pity, and the
wall of generations born TO the rule of anar-
chy and tyranny falls deaf upon his ear His
children shall mock his memory. whether
they live to enjoy the greatness others have
won, or-God forbid-live to clank the fetters
his cowardice has riveted upon his native

The KEARssRcE AND THE ALABANA.-A
correspondent in England sends for publica
ton the following letter from an English
sailor who was on board the Alabama during
the fight:
l see in the English papers great deal
too much said to the credit Of the Alabama
and the discredit of the Kearsarge. Even
Semmes himself, in his official report, has
uniustly insinuated against the Kearsarge
that she wilfully fred upon us number Of
times after knowing that our coiors were
down. On board the Kearsarge they believ
ed, as was the fact, that our colors were shot
away. On our side a man was ordered on
the spanker boom to hold up white flag, as
a token of surrender; but on board the kear-
sarge, at the distance they were off, they
misunderstood that for a man persisting in
raising again the Confederate ensign-the
greater part of it being white. They, there
fore, continued firing. We then ired lee
gun, and on board the kearsarge they imme-
diately ceased firing. Now, sir, here is the
point which must be decided by the public,
either in justification of one party or the 9TH
er: After our thus surrendering, another
shot was sent from us at the Kearsarge from
our forward gun, which caused them to re-
turn again our fire, and, in my opinion,
would have justified them in blowing us all to
hell, though thank God that matters are as
He already intended them. On board the
kearsarge our treatment was unimpeachable.
Men, said Captain Winslow to his crew,
. treat your prisoners as your brothers. Give
them everything they desire" He even gave
US our grog he would not have us searched;
everything there we were welcome to. Such
kindness never saw, nor ungrateful retail
alton neither.

Sr. PATRIcK's BODY FoUSD.-When the
workmen engaged in the renovation of St.
Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin-tIie Oldest
church in Ireland-were digging up por-
tien Of the flooring in one OF the aisles. they
discovered large stone coffin of curious
workmanship buried few feet below the
surface. The coffin. when opened. was found
to contain the skeleton of an ecclesiastic,
supposed to have been buried there 900 yearsl
The skull was perfect. and the bones crum-
bled into dust when exposed to the air. On
the lid of the coffin there was full length OF
a Bishop in his robes. 1t was inspected by
some antiquarians, including DR.. Todd, who
expressed it as his belief that it was the orig
inal founder of the church. St. Patrick. 1t
is in good preservation, and is in every re-
spect most interesting relic. When the
church is finished it will be placed in a most
prominent position, because there is no more
remarkable antiquity in the building.

A Coop SIZED CoUPLE-The Easton PA. J
Express says: g Mr.. and Mrs. Amin. resid-
ing near the High Bridge of the New Jersey
Central Railroad, are supposed to be the
la gest couple in this country. The gentle
mans weight is 700 pounds, and the lady's
500. 1t requires six yards of cashmere for
Mr.. AS pants, and nine yards of cloth for a
coat. He and his wife keep public house at
place called Pegs Pebble. 1t is said that
the New York Museum offered the couple
$500 per year and their expenses, if they
would go to New York but they refused on
the ground that they did not wish to be look
ed at so much. They began to increase in
size about seventeen years ago"

APPEARANCE OF THE Sun FROM THE NORTH
PoLE.-To person standing at the north
pole the sun appears to sweep horizontally
around the sky every twenty-four hours with
out any perceptible variation during its cir
cult In its distance from the horizon On the
2lst of June it is $50 eS> above the horizon, a
little more than one fourth of the distance to
the zenith the highest point that it ever
reaches, From this altitude it slowly de-
scends, its track being represented by spi-
raj or screw with a very fine thread, and in
the course of three months it worms its way
down to the horizon, which it reaches on the
23d of September On this day it slowly
sweeps around the sky with its face half hid
den below the icy sea. 1t still continues to-
descend, and after it has entirely disappeared
it is still so near the horizon that it carries a
bright twilight around the heavens in its
daily circuit. As the sun sinks lower and
lower, this twilight gradually grows fainter
till 1t fades away. On the Goth of December
the sun is 230 2S> below the horizon, and this
is the midnight of the dark winter at the pole.
From this date the sun begins to ascend, and
after time his return is heralded by a faint
dawn which circles slowly around the hori-
zon, completing its circuit every twenty-four
hours. This dawn grows gradually brighter,
and on the Goth of March the peaks of ice are
gilded with the first level ravs of the six
months day. The bringer of this long day
continues to wind his spiral way upward, till
he reaches his highest place on the 21st of
June, and his annual course is completed.

A FRUITFUL VINE.-In the Harleian MSS.
we find mention made of certain Scotch
weaver who had no less than 60 children, and
all by one wife. This family included four
daughters, who lived to be women, and the
rest of the three score and two were boys, who
all lived to be baptized. Out Of these, 46
actually reached mans estate. The writer,
one Thomas Gibbons, adds, that during the
time of this fruitfulness on the part of the
wife, the husband was absent for some five
years in the Low Countries, where he served
under Captain Selby and that after his re.
turn home his wife was again delivered of
three children at birth, and continued in
her due time in such births" until she ceased
child bearing. Once Week
