Farewell beloved friend! We grieve to miss
Thy presence from our midst while life to thee
Was bright and fair, and full Of promised bliss,
And in the morning Of thy unspent day could see
So much to live for; but the Advise God
Has early called thee to his heavenly rest
And may we now, who feel the Christening rod,
See thy great gain, and murmur: cit Is best"

year 1866 private agencies existed, where
substitutes could be procured for stipu-
lated sum; since then, however, these
agencies have been abolished, and the
government has entirely monopolized the
business, with the view Of creating Do
tation Fund, wherewith to encourage re-
enlistment when the original term of SER
vice has expired. The price of a substi-
tute is fixed annually, and varies consid-
erably; yet it is at any time large sum
for youth, even of the middle classes to
pay. In 1856 the sum was 1860; In 1859,
$500; and in 1862, $500. To show how
poorly voluntary enlistment succeeds in
France, and also how the true cam.
paigning spirit is declining, we may re-
cord the fact that, whereas in 1853, 5000
presented themselves to the recruiting SER
sergeant, not more than 1882 displayed
their martial zeal in 1862; SO little pug
naciOus is your real Frenchman if left to
himself. No army in the world offers
greater prizes; and it would not be fair
to the military system of France not to
state that rapid advancement is open to
every soldier, and that no man with supe-
riOr education ever remains long in the
ranks. For the artillery and engineers,
special public schools, such as the Poly
technic, St. Cyr, Saumur, &C., have been
instituted; and here are produced some
Of the finest military scholars in the world.
The azure and argent of that splendid
corps, the Cents Gardes, the oriental Co.'S
tune OF the Zouaves and Turcos, the light
build and lighter steps of the Ohasseurs de
Vincennes, the grave and defiant tread of
the blue-coated Grenadiers, the measured
yet easy pace of the Chasseurs d,Afrique
on their silk-ooated horses, the well.ap-
pointed Uhlars, and the picturesque Spahis

its variety than from the conviction that
with such men an imperial commander

foreign nations-provided there be no
checks. Are there such checks for France?
Yes, and for other countries; but unfor-
tunately it is in the equalization of the
military strength of each nation; hence
the vast, menacing, expensive armies
which stand at attention throughout the
continent, Gripping the energies, and neu-
tralizing the industry, and devouring the
resources Of rich and poor monarchies
alike.

Said Mr. Lincoln to Mr. Mallory, in the pres
ence of Senator Crittenden and others, at the
close of the extra session of Congress, I" If the
people of the seeded States are determined
with unanimity, or feeling approaching unan-
unity, that their States shall not be members
of this Confederacy, it is beyond the power of
the people of the other States to force them to
remain. In the contingency that there is not a
Union sentiment in those States, which, set free
from the control now held over it by the pres
ence of the Confederate or rebel power, will be
sufficient to replace these States in the Union.
this acdr is not only an error, 1t Is a crine-Chi-
cago Times.
This proves Mr.. LINCOLN to be Cop
perhead Of the vilest stripe. The Democ-
racy propose to test the Union sentiment
of the Confederacy by inviting negotia-
tons for peace. If no such sentiment ex.
hibits itself, we shall see whether cit is
beyond the power of the other States to
force them to remain" Gen. MCCLELLAN
has expressed himself pretty freely in re-
gard to that matter and does not consider
the war in such an event, either IAN error,
or q crime"

ANOTHER GONE - Captain Newsons
father-in-law, writing him from Albany, N. Y,
tells him that favorite son fell in the battle of
Reams Station on the Weldon road. He says :
IA Lieutenant in Henry's Battery writes me
hat Lieut.. Donchy was in command of the
battery at the time of the battle, and he was
called upon to send gun to certain place,
and sent Henry. There was desperate charge
made by the enemy, and Henry was shot
through the head with rifle ball, falling dead
on the spot, across his gun.
"How little we think of these things till
they come home to us, and yet there will be
many more that must go the same way before
this terrible war is over; but Gods will be
done; We are in and we have got to fight it
out"
Henry D. Brown was Second Lieutenant
18th New York Artillery, young man of fine
promise, who had risen from the ranks to the
position he occupied at the time of his death,
and who leaves an unblemished memory be-
hind him. He had served three years in the
army lacking one month. And thus every
household mourns-for it's honored and Ia
mented dead.

ST.. PAUL, Sept -. 1854.
Editor Saint Paul Pioneer:
On my return from the East yesterday,
found in the PIONEER of the 9TH inst, the fol-
lowing paragraph in letter written by cor
respondent of the Eren;ng Post headed, "Why
we have Indian Wars, viz:
One of these old Indian traders had
become q United States Senator, and his
good will, it was desirable for the Commits.
sioner of Indian affairs to conciliate So his
claim of forty five thousand dollars twice be-.
fore rejected under former administration
was allowed" &c.
AS am evidently the person alluded to by
the writer of the foregoing, and as he is slightly
incorrect, deem it duty to make the follow
ing statement:
list. never presented to this or any other
Administration claim against any Indian OF
any Indian tribe.
I'd. / never received dollar from the Gov
eminent for any claim against any Indian OF
any Indian tribe.
Sd. never filed before any person occupy
ing an official or unofficial position, claim Of
claims against any Indian or tribe of Indians
4th. had nothing to do with the auditing
or adjusting any claims of traders or other
againstany of the tribes removed.
By publishing the foregoing you will oblige
Yours respectfully,

The unparalleled devotion of the Army
of the Potomac to General MCCLELLAN,
finds it's counterpart among the soldiers of
of the West. From every quarter we get
the cheering news that the General is
still in command of the armies.
large number of soldiers leaving the CITY
on the Sunday noon train, raised very hurri-
cane of shouts for Mcclellan as the cars were
passing along the Ohio levee. Lincolns re-
lance upon the the Army will be like leaning
on aslender reed. The soldiers will not forget
Little Mac; he never forgot them.-CA;ro DEM
ocrdt.
If the enthusiasm with which the announce
ment Of the nomination of Mcclellan is re-
ceived among the wounded heroes in our hos
pitfalls here be any indication of the feelings of
the army, then Lincoln's cake is dough in the
army, sure enough. We have made it our spe-
cial business to inquire among the soldiers
here, and find great cause to congratulate the
democracy of the country upon the prospects
run the machine the next four years, that
much is certain.-Keokuk Constitution.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 5, 1854.
POLITICS IN THE ARMIES.
From information that has been carefully
SotuCiCu VIC poot WCCh, J1lcIC Is every
reason for believing that General Mcclellan is
the soldiers choicei for the Presidency. If the
vote of the Army of the Potomac be fairly TAX
en-, four-fifths of it will be cast for General Nc
Clellan. In the Western armies it is calculat-
ed that he will receive three votes out of every
four. The soldiers not only believe in him
personally, but they feel that the control Of af-
fairs should be in the hands of thorough mil
itary man, such as he. As for the officers,
nearly all of them ore for the General, though
they have to maintain prudent silence about
the matter. All the West Point influence is
being quietly exerted In his favor, and with the
exception of such as owe their commissions to
their affiliations with abolition Governors and
Congressman, there is hardly an officer but
what would vote for him in preference to Mr..
Lincoln This Is somewhat remarkable in view
of the exertions that have been made by the
administration to depose or remove to frontier
stations every officer who was known to in
dorse Gen. McClellah's military policy.
