DEo OPT MAX

DEO OPT MAX.
Father Of all in every age,
In every cline adored.
By saint, by savage and by sage,
jehovah, Jove, OF Lord.
Thou great First Cause, least understood,
Who all my sense confined
To know but this, that thou art good,
And that myself am blind;
Yet gave me, in this dark estate.
To see the good from i'll;
Aud, binding nature fast in fate,
Left free the human will,
what conscience dictates TO be done,
Or warns me not to do,
This teach me more Than hell 10 shun,
That, more than heaven pursue.
What blessings thy free bounty gives
Let me not cast away;
For God is paid when man receives
To enjoy is 70 obey.
Yet not 10 earth's contracted span
Thy goodness let me bound.
Or think thee Lord alone of man,
When thousand worlds ara round.
Let no. this weak. unknowing hand,
Presume thy bolts to throw,
Ard deal damn alton round the land,
On each judge Thy foe.
III am right, thy grace impars
still in the right 10 stay;
IfIam wrong, oh teach my heart
To find that better way.
Save me slike from foolish pride.
Or impious discomfort.
At aughi thy wisdom has denied,
Or aught thy goodness lent.
Teach me 10 feel anottefs wos, u
To hide the fault ! see;
That mercy To others show,
Tha, mercy show to me.
Mean though am. no, wholly so.
Since quieken'd by thy breath;
oh lead me wheresoe'er 60,
Through this days life Or death.
This day be bread and peace my lot;
All else beneath the sun,
Thou knew'si If best bestow'd or not.
And le, thy will be done.
T. Thee, whose temple l. ell space,
Whose altar. earth, sea, skies.
One chorus let al beings raise,
All natures incense rise.

We know that majority of the officers

This is certainly one of the most ex-
traordinary attacks upon army officers
we have yet read, and out Herods
Herod in unpatriotic zeal for the Val

doubt some men among the officers
who are governed there as they would
be at home by mercenary motives, but
that all or majority of those who are
hourly liable to be killed or wounded,
expose life and all they hold dear for
the sake OF few dollars salary, is a
libel upon them as unjust as it is un-
generous. We could give numerous
instances of both captains and colonels
who have endured all the privations
incident to war, who could have lived
at home at their ease in the endowment

happy homes and good situations, with

neA The official soldiers vote of this
county, published in another column,
bears upon its face refutation of the
libels of the Democrat on the officers
of the army influencing their votes.
According to it, there are no honest
officers in it unless they are VaIlandig-
ham sneaks, and the judges, inspect
ors and clerks, although taken from
both officers and men, are all rascals OF
the most approved stamp. The real
wonder in the vote referred to is that
50 many should have voted for candi-
dates who opposed allowing soldiers
to vote at all

1t would seem from the following
remarks of Jeff. Davis in his speech at
Augusta, Ga, just prior to Hoods ad-
vance, that the latter, which has turn
ed out so miserably, was undertaken
in aid of the peace party of the North:
'' We must beat Sherman we must
march into Tennessee; there we will
draw from 10000 to 10000 to our
standard, and SO strengthened, ece mast
push tie enemy bach to the Ohio, and thus
gipe the peace party Of the North an ac-
cretion no puny editorial can give.

lie was taken to Hannibal, No. tried
and executed on the eth October bv a
detail of twenty-four men. The Cour-
ler OF that place says:
The prisoner gave his name as Hughey
Is. Bloom, and stated that he had married
his present wife, who resides in LYONS,
Clinton county, Iowa under the assumed
name OF Smith, at Little Rock, Ark a few
years since, and that his wite'is ignorant of
his real name. One of his statements is
TO the effect that he enlisted in the rebel
service and served three years. when he
deserted and enlisted in the Federal service
ut Chicago, receiving bounty of $500
deserted at Springfield, ILL.,, last Tuesday,
ana made his way to Quincy, took boat
tor Lagrange, where he was arrested and
sent to this place. Another statement
which he made, that he had been with
Anderson, and had taken part at the late
massacre at Centralia, and we learn that he
asserted that he knew some of the men
that belong to Capt Theis' company. The
coat which he had on was identified we
learn as belonging to one of the members
OF Capt. Lancaster's company.
There was we learn a man of tba
name of Hugh B. Bloom resident of
this place years ago, and although the
name OF Lawhaton is evidently an
error, 1t is no doubt the same person.
