Sick aud Wounded Wisconsin Soldiers IN the
Ohio River.
,JOHNsTONN. Dec.

JoHNsToNN, Dec. Z.
Editors State Journal The undersigned, I'M
der instructions from the Executive of the
State of Wisconsin, has lately been making
examination rs of the sick and disabled Wis
consin soldiers in hospital along the Ohio
river.
Among those visited was the regimentcl
hospital of the AID Wisconsin infantry, a:
Cairo, that city of mud, under the charge Of
George D. Which, NJ. D., of Otsego, Column
bia county.
Taking into consideration the disadvantage
es and inconvenience of a regimentaI when
compared with general hospital, where the
buildings are necessarily temporary, added to
the fact that it was at time of very bad, wet
weather, it is not much to say that that hos.
pital will not suffer in comparison with any
other visited DR.. ". has been very success
full in the treatment of eases, having had but
one fatal since the opening of the hospital,
and they have been numerous.
The Agent was happy to find, as he did by
the voluntary testimony of inmates as well
as by members of the regiment outside, that
he has their entire confidence, both as gen.
tleman and practitioner, and that he is do
ing all that any reasonable man can ask or
expect. D. R. SPooNER,

into utter jeopardy. Be it what it may, in
tellect, manhood, love, or holy purpose, he is
sure it shall all be counted for the attaining
OF his purpose by his Maker and mankind
In that certainty he is satisfied; and, calm as
you under your roof, he walks in all the fury
of the strife.
Such is the blood we may call precious, be-
cause it is the price with which things inva
able and indispensable are procured.
Shall we question the price of blood, when
we reflect how much that purchase means {?
What equivalent do we foresee, but posteri-
ty, nourished on what it procures industry,
In the next generation, instead of the blight
OF luxury and mildew of selfindulgence in
our youth; freedom, a pioneer sturdy as
ever smote the woods of the Western wilder
ness, advancing TO redeem the soil, so long
by our wretched serfdom defrauded of its
fertility; immigration, hardly inundated by
the shock Of arms, coursing more abundantly
in the channels of peace; literature, already
springing to bud and bloom, for splendid and
native fourishing, out Of burrows plowed in
to the sub-soil of character by the cannon
wheel; art with subjects many and large as
she can wish to treat, furnished to her hand ;
eloquence and song, dropping artifce to be-
come the voice OF nature out of ignorance
and barbarism, education starting for the
reconstruction of which politicians debate ;
religion, reviving out of a sorrow so impair
tial and widespread as to cement all sects
into Christian unity; grander statesman
ship, begotten of a sincerer faith our politi-
cal editce restored, like finer buildings on
the spot of confagration; and all this pur-
chased with the blood whose effusion our
streaming eyes and bleeding heart-as ma
ture in US contends with spirit-accompany
and bewail Thanks to those, at home or
abroad who favor such a consummation -

The EInrN MARTYRS.

When we think of the victims of the war,
the lambs without number taken out of orr
vast flock and fold for a vicarious sacrifice.
we lament. But when we think of the tenn
per in which the have gone to it. and the
contagion of virtue to scatter our corruption
they spread, what is grand and immortal in
us exults over the bier, though holding our
own. See the young man in the flower of
his days, surrounded by all that can stir or
fill earthly desire He has kindred dear to
his own soul, and is the blossom on a gener-
Gus stock. A fine position he holds for repu-
tation, influence and gain He is conscious
of abilities to ascend in any calling of peace
full life to the topmost rank of hisfelowmen.
He loves, and is loved the sweetest mixture
ever commended to mortal taste touches his
lips His Astounding strength lifts the horo-
scope of score on score OF years of enjoy
ment, equal to what our humanity can ever
have in its lot. But he surrenders it all ; he
lays it on his oountry's shrine he carries it
into the path OF the bullet, AM puts it at the
hazard OF any rutiian's aim.
wherefore is it Because. though he has
ali heart could desire for himself and the
house he was born In, it is not enough, if the
mouse OF the nation is broken int, because
he owns his parentage in the common Father
and the mother-land that bore him. and be-
cause they, through whom he came. see the
childhood of God and duty beyond that to
themselves in their son; because, if he wed
6ed, he knows he was honors husband baforn
! ard because the wife girds and gives him to
that supreme prior choice, and bv her deli.
cate but resolute fingers the badges of his "a
tai vocation are wrought because he feels
he belongs to this awful fortune, as part of
the price of redemption for justice and pa.
tive land; and that part of the price which
he is he will not, ike the peEjured promisers
in scripture, keep back.
He confesses he is not his own: there was
hold of pre- emption on him before he could
dispose of himself any way; heavy mort
gage, covering all he is worth, includes body
and soul He waits not, therefore, for the
CONSUMPTION, or assertion of its right by the
law He volunteers-and It's this volunteer
ing has saved US mot pretending he is max
ing any gift, or has independent property in
his own endowment or nature to bestow.-
Truly we say he is possessed with divine
impulse for providential end Nor does he
believe that life or death hangs for him on
the dice of chance, but the bidding of God.
He understands well there is no want of
economy in adventuring what he has or hopes

The Veteran First Germs.

Many Of our brave soldiers who have re-
turned home on the expiration of their tenn
of service, find quiet life at home altogeth-
er too tame while the conflict still RACES at
the front, and often feel ike going back into
the army. To all such ? splendid opportuni-
ty is offered BY the organization of the Vet
eran Corps Of 10000 men under such re-
nowned leader as Gen. HANCOCK. 1t will be
the most honorable portion of the National
Army to belong to. A corps of American
veterans trained in this war, will be superior
to any body of troops the world ever saw
The pecuniary inducements are greater than
have ever been held out, recognizing, as will
be seen below, the greatly superior value of
veteran soldiers. 1t is said that there is ev-
cry prospect that the corps viii be filed up
by the time fixed, the first of January:
Gen. HANCOCK issues the following explana,
ton Of the way to get office in the first corps
of the army
All persons desiring commissions IN the
lst corps to be organized under the recent Or
der OF the War DepaI tment, must make APP
plcation in writing to the Adjutant General
OF the. army, at Washington, setting forth
their present address, date and rank of their
original entry into service, the regimental
organizations in which they have served,
date and cause of their discharge, their rank
at the time they were mustered out of service
and if they think proper, adding military
recommendations from their former command
ers. Applicants must have been two years
l. IL.
ed, and be physically qualified. Their militia
ry record will be examined in the Adjutant
Generals Office, whence it will be referred
to Maj. Gen. Hancock for the purpose Of as
pertaining their fitness for the position to
W. Oh they desire to be appointed. After
passing examination, officers will receive their
| appointment, and they may then be required
to proceed at once to raise veterans under
the order. When a sufficient number has
been received and mustered in the officer
will also be mustered in, to rank from the
date OF his original appointment.
Gen. HANCOCK also issues a condensed
statement of the way in which men can get
into the Ist corps of the army and the III
| ducements to join:
Fjrst-Men are enlisted and mustered only
in this city, Washington
Second-Veterans served two years and
honorably discharged, may enlist for one, two
or three years.
Thrd-Those enlisting will receive the
| special government bounty of $500, and in
| addition 800 for one, 5000 for two and $500
for three years.
Foouth-They will De credited to the dis
trict where they reside, and be entitled to To-
| cal bounties.
FJh-Free transportation will be furnished
to Washington by any Provost Marshal
Strh-The best arms in the possession OF
| the Government will be furnished these
troops.

From the Atlantic Monthly for December
THE VANIsHERS.
BY J. G. WHITTIER.

Sweetest of all childlike dreams
In the simple Indian lore,
Still to me the legend seems
OF the Elves who fit before.
Fitting, passing, seen and gone,
Never reached nor found at rest,
Battling search, but reckoning on
To the sunset OF the blest.
From the clefts of mountain rocks,
Through the dark of Lowland frs,
Flash the eyes and flow the locks
Of the mystic Vanishers
And the fisher in his skif,
And the hunter on the moss,
Hear their call from cape and cliff,
See their hands the birch-leaVes toss.
Wistful, lons.u through the green
Twilight Of the clustered pines,
In their faces, rarely seen,
Beauty more than mortal shines.
Erin ed with gold their mantIes flow
On the slopes of westering knoIls;
In the wind they whisper low
OF the sunset land Of souls.
Doubt who may, o, friend of mine
Thou and 1 have seen them too;
On before with beck and sign
Still they ghde, and we P ursue'
More than clouds of purple trail
In the gold OF setting day
More than CLEANS OF wing or sail
Beckon from the sea-mist gray.
GHmpses Of immortal youth,
Cleans and glories seen and lost,
Far-heard voices sweet with truth
AS the tongues OF Pentecost-
Beauty that eludes our grasp,
Sweetness that transCends our taste,
Loving hands we may not clasp,
Shining feet that mock our haste
Gentle eyes We closed below,
Tender voices heard once more
Smile and call US as they go
On and oavafd, stall before.
Guide thus, 0, friend of mine!
Let us walk our little way,
kcowing by each reckoning sign
That we are not q ute asiray.
Chase we still with baffied feet.
Smiling eye and waving hand,
Sought and seeker soon shall meet,
Lost and found, in sunset land
