felled acres of woodland across the Potomac
to deprive the enemy of protection for his
ssharpshooters. In May, 1868, Colonel Burn
ham commanded brigade in Howe's division
Sixth lSedgwick's) corps, and participated in
the operations 10 the vicinity OF Fredericks-
burg, under Hooker, particularly in the assanlt
upon the enemy's centre at Marey's Hill, on
May -. In the battle of Gettysburg the follow
ing July, the Colonel also participated. In
the reorganization, list March, he was assign
ed to the command of Third brigade, First di-
vision, Sixth corps, in Meade's army, and bore
conspicuous part in the transactions of that
corps in Grants movements against Richmond.
For meritorious service Colonel Burnham was
promoted to che rank of brigabier general.
About July last the General was transferred
to the Eighteenth corps, in Buffers army.
The action in which General Burnham receiV-
ed his fatal shot was In an assault of General
Stannard s division upon some powerful works
in the vicinity of Chapn's Bluff, which took
place last Thursday, and was part of a grand
series of yet unfinished movements north of
the James river. The character of the fight
ing done may be known by the fact that Stan
nard's division lost all its brigade commanders
and five hundred officers and men killed and
wounded. IF 4fgffqaat gtVe85g9

and brilliant, though brief career of this dis.

to be proud, has furnished the New York Hers

Gen. Burnham was born in the State OF
Maine, and at the time eff the outbreak Of the
rebellion was resident of Cherryfeld, Wash

the President for troops for three years he as
sisted in raising the Sixth Maine Volunteers,

Strong Letter from Daniel s. Dickinson.
Daniel S. Dickinson sent the following letter
to Union meeting at Erie, Pennsylvania, on
the 18th instant: se
"BINGHAMPToN, N. Y, September 13.
My Dear Sir: Your very kind invitation
to attend and address the Union meeting in
your city on the 10th, would induce me to ac-
cept, were it possibly consistent, but previous
engagements will not permit. The Union
forces seem to be quietly massing for the con-
test, and just now, am more amused over the
exhibitions of our opponents, than am con-
cerned for Union success. They held a peace
convention for the peaceful, and signalized it
0y pitched battle on the floor, for the graft
ilcation OF the war element; they made plat
form Tor the pacific, and placed upon it plumes,
and pistols, and swords, and spears, and epau-
lets and emblems of bloodshed for the beliger-
ents, and yet the cause of peace, like that of
its twin sister true love, does not run smooth
The platform does not fit the candidate and he
cannot wear it with out alterations-the altera-
tions do notsuit the party and cannot be adopt
ed, and just now, the party, the platform, the
candidate, are somewhat like the hatchet, the
staff and the kid in the nursery rhyme, and the
disappointed followers are crying, pray, hatch
ct, hack staf:-staf won't beat kid-kid won't
60. There seems to be but one remedy. The
peace convention, by elfcreation, is, like orig
inal sin, perpetual. Let it speedily reassemble
its party of peacemakers and select cough
suitable to its cold.
sincerely yours, d. S. DICKINSON"

although he met there the most distinguish
ed lawyers of Kentucky, such as Rowan,
Guthrie, and Thomas F. Marshall. In Ia
ter years he became member OF the State
Senate of Kentucky. Occupying that
position at the outbreak of the rebellion,
he used all his influence in favor of the
policy of the President as their polit-
ical opinions are almost identical
At the age of sixteen Mr.. Speed be-
came an emancipationist, and, has ever
since been a consistent. answering and
outspokan anti-slavery man. An uneX-

urbane and courteous gentleman, and an
earnest patriot, james Speed is worthy of
the highest position and responsibilities
His political opinions have prevented
him from receiving Office from votes of the
citizens of his native State, and it is mat

has appointed him to q position for which

SeHen EFeeIss more.

The call for 800, 900 MORE MEN, must be
responded to, BY volunteering, within the
next seven weeks, if the draft is to be
averted. When tho people reelected
Abraham Lincoln, they pledged both men
snd money, for tho suppression oftbe re-
beIlion. To end the war speedily, there
fore. a cheerful aud immediate response
should be made to the call. The robels
are now reduced to one efficient army, now
held fast by the army of the Potomac.
We have three at lesst. If they are not
allowed TO recover before next summer,
the end Of the rebellion is near at hand.
If the remnants of Hoods army escape in
to Georgia, and the population, en- naasss,
of that State, is eOnscripted, it may be re-
organized, and If they succeed in six
months, in adding 100000 negro soldiers
TO their ranks, the war may be protracted
beyond the next year. If, however, the
quota now called for, is rapidly filled, then
inc rEDeIHOu VIII Do UverPoWered before
its strength csn be reorganized.
The practical question with each town
ship and ward is, how can zVe fill our quo
tas before the 18th of February next This
question can best be answered by the indi-
vidual experience Of each. In some cases,
the best field of operations is in their own
midst. The bounty that can well g paid
by many heads of families or by men en-
gagged in important or lucrative business,
will enable most townships and wards to
raise most Of their recruits from their own
midst. Il many cases, the mistake is made
of rushing to the cities, instead of getting
men in the immediate neighborhood. Let
all men understand that substitutes, after
the next draft, will command from six
hundred to a thousand dollars, and boun-
ties of from three TO Eve hundred dollars,
can be readily raised now. The rebellion
is undoubtedly in its extremity, and those
who now enlist may feel the satisfaction
of knowing that they viii have part in the
brilliant conclusion which awaits our ar
mics. Many young men, who have had
no part, as yet, in the great conflict, have
now an opportunity 10 engage in the
closing act of this fearful tragedy Of war.
Let the work of recruiting, therefore, be
pushed forward with every energy, and
the quota of the State can be filed. Han
cocks corps offers special inducements 10
old soldiers. Don't delay an hour in the
necessary and patriotic work.

rne Armtnr OF Slaves.


The great furry of excitement that
passed over rebeldom few weeks since
in regard to arming the slaves, had nearly
abated, until Hoods defeat and Sherman's
success. The result of recent military
operations has been TO revive the discus
sion. The Richmond Enquirer says the
a subject of negro eonscriptio1 gains ground
aOith eUsry defeat. 1t then savsgely at
tacks the rebel Congress for not seeing the
inevitable drift of affairs. 1t calls loud
for the negro;
aEVery day is important, and every
days delay is Just so much lost Whether
Hood has been defeated or not, peace will
not be gained without m5re men, and the
negroes only, we fear, can give our army
the men.
To this humiliation arc Southern nabobs
at last brought. In the earlier stages Of
the war, they would have been stung into
furious wrath had they been told that they
must finally rely on the negro. Now
when ruin gapes for them, they cry pite-
ously for the black man, laboring under
the delusion that the regro viii delight K

Comforting Rebels.

The New York Neics is still croaking
about the war. On Saturday last, it said:
1.-THE people of the Confederacy show a
temper that cannot be mistaken, and con-
vince US that, unless Heaven should in its
mercy turn the hearts of the party that
rules in Washington to wisdom, there is
nothing before these Federal States but
ruin"

if they should be deprived for a few weeks

The New York Ne,0s publishes letter,
signed ABoLITIoNIsT, taking the ground
that if slavery were abolished by the
South, Wendell Phillips and other sboli-
tionists would favor the recognition OF
Southern Independence. This is a grave
mistake. There may be few hOt-hesded
New England abolitionists who would
favor such policy, but that species Is not
found in these parts. The "abOlitionists"
of Ohio, no small body of men, are fight
ing for the restoration of the Union, know
ing full well that slavery will be ground to
pieces in the fierce struggle.
