NEW YORK, August 3, 1864.
DEAR SIR:
Believing that the alarming condition of our
country demands that Immediate measures
should be adopted to stop the bloody tide of war,
and spare mankind; that honorable peace can be
speedily obtained if proper are applied !;
proper men chosen to guide the ship Of state at
the approaching election; that the sword can
never unite the States; never produce recon
struction; that negotiation arbitration must
always be resorted to; if the former fall the lat
ter cannot.
We therefore propose man whom we knoy'
is honest and capable, perhaps the only one who,
il elected, can calm the element OF strife; say to
the troubled sea, ''peace, be still - that man is
ex President Fillmore. He has been tried,
weighed, and is nothing wanting We think
him best qualified to unite the !disne-A- pit ele-
ments; the war and peace parties; 10 stay the
bloody tide. the insidious whirlpool that isfrapid
ly hurting US to destruction.
If Willard Fillmore can obtain the Chicago
nomination in August, he will be elected beyond
a reasonable doubt. For with the powerful aid
of the successful party who opposed him in 1850,
added to his own extensive popularity, his sue
cess is nearly certain. We therefore solicit your
cooperation in this important work-the saliva
ton of the American Republic.
In proof of bis deserved laurels we quote
from the Republican press of 1852:
"Mr. Fillmore has acted nobly. boldly and
conscientiously; the fruits of his glorious ad-
ministraton have been national peace, honor and
prosperity.

August {, 1864.
10 THE EDITOR or rHE SENTINEL:
S1:-We, the undersigned. members Of the
2oth Indiana, desire to say few words in
gard to the way in which we were enlisted.
There has been a great deal said. and great
indignation is expressed throughout the State OF
indiana in regard TO the way in which we were
enlisted. Now, wish to make a statement of
what we know to be facts. In 1862 you know
there were recruiting officers from almost, If not
quite, every regiment then in the field from Indi-
ana, wanting recruits to serve as they declared,
Tor the unexpred time of the regiments which
they were recruiting for. The recruiting officer
VINO recruited US gave Us every assurance in the
world that We were wanted only for the unex-
pred term ofthe regiments in which we were en-
listed. We thought him to be an authorized
agent Tor the Government, aud thought, also,
the Government was responsible for what he
done. and consequently trusted his word 10
be true.
But when the time came TO be mustered in we
entertained some doubts to the truth of the
statement which the recruiting officers made TO
US, and accordingly We went 10 the mastering in
officer aud represented the matter, that we OBJ
jected to taking an oath for three years, he ex-
plainei to US that there was no other way in
which We could be sworn in, and assured us that
we would be kept only for the remainder of the
time which the regiments had to serve, and that
We would be mustered out along with them.
There was also printed bills posted up in diff
ierent parts of the State saying that recruits
were wanted to serve ont the unexpired time OF
old regiments then in the field. This was signed
by Governor Morton himself Now, in view OF
all these known facts, not this enough evi
denceto convince any reasonable mind that il
was all truey Certainly it was. And we do
not hesitate to say that we cannot support the
State and national administrations for another
term, unless our wrongs are redressed and we
sincerely appeal to our friends at home not to
vote for such authorities in the coming election.
We lay most of the blame to Governor Morton,
for he most certainly knew all about how we were
being recruited and if SO, why did he permit the
thing to GO on without doing ANYTHING to
have the mistake correctedl
We make these few statements of facts merely
in justice TO ourselves, and do earnestly ask our
friends at home not TO vote for men who nave
been the means of deceiving US.

1t Is commanded along its whole length by
the guns of Fort Morgan, and particularly at
the opening, left for the entrance of blockade
running vessels. Every one of the Union YES
sells must pass through this narrow opening or
gate in order to enter the bay, and how many of
the wooden vessels can do so under the accurate
FIRE to which they will DE exposed from Fort
Morgan, can readily be imagined. Indeed, one
OF our iron-clsd monitors. the Tecumseh, has
already been sunk in this very opening by the
guns OF Fort Morgan, and it may be that her
snnkeu hull may render the passage through the
gate still more difficult.
The other line of distractions is far up the
bay quite near the city, indeed. 1t is similar to
the first line, except that il is further Egthened
by number of old bulls OF vessels sunk along
H. The rebel fleet has abundant room TO operate
between these two lines of distractions: and it is
here that the naval battle if aDy takes place will
be fought.

DIAMONDS EoR BoRING ARTISAN
WELLs.-Mr. Lorenzo Dow, No. 10
Broadway, N. Y, recently brought to
this Office core Of compact sandstone,
about two feet in length and 81 inches
in diameter, which was taken out on
the Funk farm, Pennsylvania, by his
peculiar cutter. This instrument was
originally patented in France, by M.
Rudolph Lesohand, and subsequently
in the United States, through the Sci
entific American Patent Agency
The most novel feature in the tool is
the employment Of diamonds for cut
ters in the place of steel. These dia-
monds are set in the end of O tube
driven by machinery, the same as an
ordinary drill, and work with aston
ishing rapidity. Five feet per hour
is a fair rate Of its progress through
hard sandstone. The drill leaves
core standing which is broken off and
drawn upon convenient lengths. e. In
the cutter under notice, 10 diamonds
are used, and the cost of them is about
$500, but they last long time, and
are practically durable. Miners and
well-borefs who have seen it speak
highly of its eliiciency.---Seientifc

e. Quinine is now the king Of
medicine; and while every one regards
it as the most reliable and invaluable
of remedies, there are many who think
that with quinine and Opium they can
treat all diseases. The demand is
enormous, and the more especially if
we recall the rapidity with which this
younger son of medicine has come into
its rights. Into this country bark
found its way for the first time late in
the seventeenth century; andi France
it won its entrance into the pharma-
copGia by curing Louis XIV, being
used then for him as secret remedy,
and on the following conditions AS
600 livres, 1900 livrcs as a pension,
and the title of chevalier. The COM
mUnication between French and Eng
lish physicians was not then complete
or intimate, and so this magnificent
price, was obtained for Pallott's rem
ody, which was only q vinous tincture
of quinine commonly employed in
England Louis XIV, ordered its
admission into the pharmacop~ia.-
The sources Of quinine are, however
gradually falling under the pressure
OF the enormous demand and although
the experiments Of the British govern
ment in forming plantations of Gin
ohona trees in India have met with
success in an important degree, yet
the best kinds of quinine-bearing
trees are said not to have succeeded so
well as tho others. London Lancet.

Henry Maudsley, ono OF the most
eminent of English mechanics Whose
death is reported to us among the
news brought by the last foreign
steamer), had this mechanical instinct
strikingly developed. His father was
a carpenter, but young Maudsley HIM
ytolf was much fqnder of working in
ton, and would often excite the anger
Iof the foreman by stealing off to an
adjoining smithy. He urged SO hard
for change that whom fifteen years
old, he was transferred from the car
penter's to the blacksmith's shop
Uere he becamo an expert worker in
metal, aud, was soon quite noted for
forging /" trivers" with great speed
and skill, the old experienced hands
gathering round to admire him when
at this work.
When boy has the innate love Of
his trade that Maudsley had, and
thousands of American youth all over

remain at the foot of the ladder-

most without knowing it, are urged
onto Something better. At this time

A worn out wise bench was lying near

chances were in danger, asked per-

up. lie did so, and the Job was SO
speedily executed that he was at once
engaged, and he became as much a
favorite in this as in his former shop:
