now TECUMsEH WAS KILLED.

The Western Christian AdUOcdte of last week
contains an obituary notice of Isaac Hamlin, Sr.,
who died at his residence near Bloomfield, In
diana, few months since, aged about eighty
six years. Mr. Hamlin was a man of deep pi-
ETY. and unquestionable veracity. He was in
the battle of the Thames and the writer gives
the following as his statement, in regard to the
manner in which Tecumseh was killed:
He says he was standing but few feet from
Colonel johnson when he fell, and in full view,
and saw the whole of that part of the battle
He was well acquainted with Tecumseh, having
seen him before the war, and having been pris-
oner seventeen days, and received many ours
ING from him. He thinks that Tecumseh
thought johnson was Harrison, as he often heard
the chief swear he would have Harrison s scalp,
and seemed to have Especial hatred toward him.
Johnson's horse fell under him, himself being
also deeply wounded; in the fall he lost his
sword, his large pistols were empty, and he was
entangled with his horse on the ground. Te-
cumseh had fired his rifle at him, and when he
saw him fall he threw down his gun and bound
ed forward like tiger, sure of his prey. john
son had only a side pistol ready for use. He
aimed at the chief over the head of his horse,
and shot near the center ofhis forehead. When
the ball struck, it seemed to him that the In
dian Jumped with his head full fifteen feet into
the air. As soon as he struck the ground lit
tie Frenchman ran his bayOnet into him, and
pinned him fast 10 the ground.

A SPASM OF PITY.

A few days since the Ohio Statesman was
moved to great thankfulness, that the last pris-
oners of war We're 10 be moved from the Ohio
Penitentiary. 1t said;
This order, happily for Ohio, relieves the
State of the odium of allowing her State Peni-
Tertiary to be used as a receptacle for prisoners
of war, incarcerated without court martial, an
ignominy which has been inflicted upon no 9TH
er State, and which could only have been in
ficted upon Ohio under the administration of
the faithless and imbecle Tod.
What an outraged Prisoners war "incarcera-
ted without court martial" How dreadful TO a
Copperhead conscience! Yet from the begin
ming Union prisoners have been incarcerated in
Southern Penitentiaries and never a spasm eX-
cited in the bosom of the Salesman editOrsl-
Beside there is not a Union prisoner in all the
South who has Jared half so well as these same
rebel prisoners confed in the Ohio Penitentiary.
From Libby to that would he like passing from
starvation 10 plenty, while the change from
Belle Island would be like passing from hell TO
heaven.-SdR Reg.

A HARD HIT.

Major "Perley' (Poore,) the Washington cor
respondent of the Boston Jourl,n says in a re-
cent letter:
John Bull is very fond Of iectuting Brother
Jonathan on the manner in which his rebellious
citizens are sometimes treated, forgetting the
horrible atrocities which have so often been
committed by British soldiers and sailors when
in the enemy country. A few evenings since,
Lord Lyons the British Minister was here was
indulging, at a dinner-party, in some comments
on the conduct of General Wild negro brigade,
during their expedition into Virginia, and his
Lordship concluded by remarking that "Gener-
al Wild must be a hard-hearted man." Yes,
my Lord" replied gentleman sitting opposite,
"a true soldier is always hard-hearted. / re-
member while in England, some ten years ago,

his squadron to bombard Taganrog in the sea

him. begging him to spare the place, which had
for years supplied great portion of England
with breadstuffs, and they added that most OF
the wheat owners were Austrian subjects But
the Admiral only replied So much the worse

EuTURE EXISTENCE.

1t is hard to think when the ties of kindred
and friendship are linked in the heart-intellect
has achieved It's loftiest triumphs and has wo-
ven its power into song, and left it in scu ptured
beauty-when the noble the good the loved,
the beautiful, have passed to the grave-it is
hard to think shall never behold them
again; and we cling to the hopes which spring
up amid those dark thoughts and tell us these
things are so. We look for analogies in nature
to confirm these hopes. We behold the mean,
groveling worm of to-day transformed, on the
morrow, to a thing of glory that futters in the
beauty of new and bright-winged existence,
and we say, "thus shall man die and live again. u
We behold the leaf and the falling iruit-the
snow -wreathed hill and the ice-bOund stream
and when they pass, and when the glad earth
reoces again, and the streams break their fet-
ters, and the trees put forth their ovelness, and
the flowers look up aud smile at us, we exclaim,
Thus shall man, who fades away like the sum-
mer flowers or the autumn Leaf, break from the
bonds of death and exult in new being, in a
new cline, where the sun never sets, and where
all is bright forever.-ChdpjR.

A sweet Wife.

Mrs. x, who resides in our senatorial
district, had neighbor, who was represented to
be quarrelsome in his family, making his home
anything but pleasant abode. She, however,
having heard that his wife was a good deal of a
vixen, thought that the wife might be blamed
for the unpleasant state of affairs in the house.
So, full of charity and the doctrines of the law
of kindness, Mrs. X-visited her neigh
boris house, with the benevolent intent of recon-
Cling the differences existing there and address
sed the better half something in this style:
"Now you know said she, show much pleas
anter it would be ifyou and your husband would
live together without quarreling; you and your
children would be happier; and instead of be-
ing reproach to the neghborhOod, you might
become honOred members of society" "And
it may be-" she continued, "you not alto
gether blameless in the matter. Suppose that
you try and see what the law of kindness prac-
ticed toward your husband will do in effectng
a reconciliation. Itcertainly can do no harm,
and may succeed in touching the tender chords
of his heart, and he may renew his old affec-
ton" ''Try it." she urged 1"and if you do not
succeed you will at least heap Goals of fire on
bis head" and so on.
All this was listened TO, when the reply was
made:-
81 don't know about your Goals of fire; I've
tried boiling hot water, and it didn't do bit of
goodI"-H Hdrpers HGgdzi,e.

HrAr FROM THE srARs.-Dr. Lardner

HEAT FROM THE STARs.-Dr Lardner says:
1T is a startling fact that if the earth were
dependent alone upon the sun for heat, it would
not get enough to keep existence in animal and
vegetable life upon its surface 1t results from
the researches of Pouillet that the stars furnish
heat enough in the course of a year TO melt a
crust of ice seventy-fi feet thick-almost as
much as is supplied by the sun. This may APP
pear strange when we consider how immeasur-
ably small must be the amount of heat received
from any one of these distant bodies. But the
surprise vanishes when we remember that the
whole armament is SO thickly sown with stars
that IN some places thousands are crowded to-
gether within space no greater than that oc-
cupied by the full moon. The eve cannot see
more than thousand at the same time in the
clearest heaven, yet the number is probably in
finite. & ON the first to the sixth magnitude
inclusive, the total number of visible stars is 8.

General stc.Imam and the CoIored Troops.
The Chattanooga Gazette of the 9th says:


Generals Stedman and Hazen attended the
evening parade of the 18th U. S. A. Colored
Regiment yesterday afternoon, and were high
ly pleased with the evolutions of the Africans.
At the conclusion of the proceedings, Gen. Sted-
man addressed the officers in a short and char
acteristic speech, announcing that the regiment
was now attached to his command, and assured
them that no effort of his should be wanting TO
make the regiment efficient He had long been
convinced that the negroes could acquire mill
tary skill and discipline, and he believed they
would fight bravely when called upon to defend
the flag of their country. And if they proved
their willingness to assist in restoring the ma
ton and saving the country, they deserved their
freedom, and it should be guaranteed TO them
for all time. The General concluded his speech
by ASSUMING the officers that in HIS intercourse
with them he would at all times recognize them
as officers of the United States, bravely battling
for the one common cause.-The restoration of
the country from the intrigues of plotting trait
ors and vile rebels. The General is radical to
the core and talks like a man whose preiudices
give place to noble and patriotic impulses.

Why DisgustinS9

The Louisville Journal speaks ofwhat it calls
"a very disgusting thing" namely, a placard
said to have been recently issued by an officer
recruiting negro troops in Kentucky. The Jour
nal describes this disgusting thing"
AOn the back of it are these words: All slaves
were made freedmen by Abraham Lincoln, Pres
ident of the United States, January l, 1863. =
Come, then, able-bodied colored men, to the
nearest United States camp and fight for the
stars and stripes. On the other side is an en-
craving of white officer in epaulettes, pOin-.
ing a sword towards the sky with his right hand
lean flag, Inscribed freedom to the slave mig
ger sch0ol-house filled and surrounded by lit
tie niggers, the nigger schOolmaster is reading a
newspaper, a big nigger in coat and cap of IN
digo-blue striking chains from the limbs Of
male and female slaves, and Niger regiment
rushing after a leader, whose color is designed
ly undistinguishable, under flag marked Uni
ted States Regiment Colored Troops The
placard bears no name. This is the only scrap
of evidence that the recruiting officer who got
it up is not, whilst seeming to court shame stone
dead to all sense oft"
The Journal ought to have explained why
this placard is disgusting" To call upon able
bodied men to fight for the stars and stripes is
certainly not disgusting, except perhaps, to the
rebels at Richmond. Nor can we see anything
disgusting in the promise held out by the pla
card, of schools, in which children shall be
taught to read, or a schoolnaster reading a news
paper, or of a man striking chains from the
limbs of male and female slaves, or of regi-
ment rushing to defend the flag of the Union
That an officer who holds out such inducements
to persons to enter the Union armies "courts
shame" is what we cannot comprehend. We
think, on the contrary, that his appeal does hon.
or alike to him, and 10 the people who can be
tempted to undergo hardship and face death by
the mere promise of liberty for themselves and
schools for their children. Unless liberty is
shameful and education disgrace, those who
endeavor to spread both ought to be held in
honor to their cOuntrymen.
