FIERCE REBEL THREATs.-A cor.
respondence has passed between Gen
Peck, commander at Newbern, N. c.
and the rebel Gen. Pickett in that state
on the treatment of negro soldiers taken
prisoners by the rebels. Gen. Peck
sent the printed report that the negro
soldier who killed Col. Shaw had been
hung by the rebels, asked if it was true.
and threatened to hang a rebel prisoner
unless it was disavowed. Gen. Pickett
replied that the story about Col. Shaw
and the negro was false and ridiculous,
and added -
Il have merely to say that l have in
my hands and subject to my orders, cap
tured in the recent operations in this de-
partment, some four hundred and fifty
officers and men of the United States
army, and for every man you hang will
hang ten of the United States army.'

Negro Marching Song.

The following song was written by Captain
Lindley Miller of the First Arkansas Colored
Regiment. Capt Miller says the boys" sing
the song on dress parade with an effect that can
hardly be described, and he adds that "while it
is not very conservative it will do to fight with"
Capt Miller is a son of the late ex-senator Mil
Ter of New Jersey.l
Oh we're de bully soldiers of de "First of Ar
KANSAS"
de law,
We can hit a rebel furder dan white man eber
saw,
AS we go marching on:
Glory, glory, hallelujah, &c.
See dar above de centre, where de flag is wavin

We are goin' ont of slavery; we are bound for
freedoms light,

AS we go marching on.
We hab done wild hoein' cotton we hab done
wild hoen corn,
We are colored Yankee soldiers now, as sure as
you are born;
When de Massas hear us yelln dey'll tink its
Gabries horn,
As we go marching or.
Dey will hab to pay us wages, dc wages of their
sin,
Dey will hab to bow their foreheads to their
coIorod kill, and kin
Dey will hab to glib us house room, or de roof
will tumble in
As we 60 marching on.
We heard de proclamation, massa hush it as he
will;
De bird he sing it to US, hoppin' on de cotton
hill,
And de possum up de gum tree he couldn't keep
it still,
AS he went climbing on.
Dey said, "Now colored bredren, you shall be
forebcr free,
From de first of January, eighteen hundred
sxty-three;
We heard it in de riber gotn rushn to de sea,
AS it went sounding on.
Father Abraham has spoken, and de message
has been sent,
De prison door he opened, and out de pris'ners
went,
To join de sable army of de ''African descent,
As we go marching on.
Den fall in, colored bredren, you'd better do it
soon;
Don't you hear de drum beatin' dc Yankee
Doodle tuner
We Vcid you now lie -.aa-..i.,'. -.e'i be G,-

Sleep. little Willie,

When next the wild May-bee
Swings in the delicate cup of the lily,
The innocent smiles of our beautiful hid
Under the roof of the dark cas1et lid,
Win break into blossoms of purple and white.
And the sweet morning light,
Solemn and tender, shall touch with rare spen
dor
The grave shadows chilly
That veil the blue eyes of our lost little Willie

Lost Willie.
Oh, dear little birdie,
Come back to our nest ;


Come back to our nest
The old house is lonesome without you;
Come, mother will hold you all day on her
breast,
With the summer winds blowing about you.
Like torches the lilies
Light all the green valleys,
And over the windows swing garlands Of
bloom,
Where the red vine and jasmine fragrantly meet,
But mourner-like shadow keeps watch in
each room;
Oh, lost little Willie Oh silence and gloom.
And the sunshine steals sadly in at the door,
Touching the floor
With its mystical feet,
Softly and silently seeking the sweet,
As a child seeks playmate who lieth asleep.
Oh, dear little Willie
Oh, white budding lilly.
Of May that the chilly
Frost wind blew over and touched with a
spell,
That keeps thee sleeping despite our wild weep
ing,
We loved thee, o darling, we love thee, Willie,
still.

A MpMoRlAL on mn DEpAnrnp.


Fresh in our memory is the loss of our dear
beloved sister, EMMA. II was hard to part with
one so fair and lovely, but the Lord caled-lfer
from earth away to live with the redeemed
Spirits of a brighter and more glorious home in
the land Of Bliss. 10 soc her was to know her.
aud to know her was but to love her. She was
loved by all aud was the enemy Of nome Dear
parents this really was hard, bat scarcely had
the green grass coated the sod, when death laid
his icy cold hands upon another member of our
bere0ved family circle, and snatched from our
midst our sweet little infant boy. lie was too
fair to live on earth, and too sweet TO see him
die
The Great Giyor of all good has takcn our
little ELMER, and we are left to mourn his loss.
He cannot come to us, but we can go to him.
A week had scarcely elapsed when We could
sec written upon the morning sun, the dreadful
reality that we were to part with another ere
that sun should rise again, and on Sunday night
the 4th inst about 10 o'clock, the spirit of our
loved brother CHARIIE. was called from earth
and waited home on the wings of glory. We
arc a bereayed family, but with all OF our grief,
we have one thing to console US. lie died
true christian.
Sleep on dear Brother in thy silent tomb,
Our grief is great and our home is gloom;
Thou hast left behiud memory dear
That will serve to guide us to thy sphere.

Wilmington Good for 1000 Majority
FOR LINCOLN AND JOHNSON
IN NOVEMBER NEXT.
Tho City overwhelmingly Union

The election for city officers took place on
Tuesday last and resulted in the election OF the
entire Union ticket by majority OF 447 votes ;
no unusual effort was made by our friends to se-
cure this most desirable result; the odiousness of
the Chicago nominations aud platform being con-
sidered sufficient incentive to the voters Of the
city to cast their ballots on the side Of law,
liberty and the Union. The peace. lat. any-prce
democracy with Mcclellan as their leader were
utterly defeated aud the patriotism Of the peO'
pie has been evinced in manner that must
strike terror to the bloody sword peace proclivl-
ties of the followers Of jeff. Davis and "I4ittle
Mac" The Lincoln and johnson ticket may be
set down as gcol for one thousand majority in
November, when the Union party shall have
become fully organized and ready for the work
The following is the vote in deiail:-
