Letter from the 18th Ohio.
NEAR ATLANTA, |
.. Aug. 10, 1864 I

EDS. GAzETTE:-This will announce
the painful intelligence that Adjutant
J. M. RUFFNER, 18th Ohio, is no more.
He fell on the evening Of the 9th,
pierced by ball from rebel sharp
shooter. In his death we have suffer-
ed an irreparable loss. He was gen.
tleman of the highest kind, courteous
and agreeable, to those with whom he
was associated in arms.
AS a friend he was magnanimous to
fault. True, faithful and generous,
he won for himself the love, confidence
and respect of the entire reg't, and
mere words will not evince how deep
ly we feel and lament his untimely
end. A Drawer soldier, a more devo.
ted patriot, or a more efficient officer
we have not known. Well may the
nation weep for the untimely end Of
such sons-"hcr first born" the truest
and the best. "Greater love hath nc
man than this, that man lay down
his life for his friends and such 0
sacrifice we recognize in the death Of
Adjt Ruffner. In behalf of the entire
rcg't we tender our sympathy and
kind coincidence to his bereaved pa
rents and friends.
Subjoined you will find list of cas-
ualties in the 18th, since the siege o
Atlanta began:
Adjutant J. NJ. Ruffner, killed.
1st. Lieut.. Lyman Barnes, comman
ding Co. II, killed

WELL PUT.

The Louisville Union Press thus
wrecks q common Coppcrhoad false
hood
Another fallacy. propagated with
the utmost diligence by the copper
heads is, that the emancipation policy
has united the South, has barred the
way to compromise, ombittered the
struggle, extinguished Union senti-
ment in the rebel States, and indeffi-
nitely prolonged the war. Perpetual
assertion of this is easy, and no doubt
many an honest man supposes there is
something in it. Yet, it is without
the shadow of a foundation. Union
sentiment in the South was eXtinguisE-
ed by rebel bullets and bloodhounds
long before emancipation was talked
of. Whatever of that sentiment sur
vived in that to be deviled region the
first six months of the war, still lives
and bides its time The South has
been n unit to all intents and purposes,
from the first. The masses a unit in
submission, the leaders unit in
boundless schemes of ambition and
empire. The rebel Congress, at the
outset of the war, declared, with the
utmost insolence, that if blank piece
of paper were offered them on which
to write their own terms Of reunion
with the North, 1T would be no in
ducement for them to return. They
have never sweryed from that declar'
alton since. And as for bitterness
like other human qualities it is finite
and the utmost limits of hatred tC
which the human heart can attain
were already reached before secession
itself was or could be consummatcd
Any one who will refer to the rebeI
newspapers of that period will see that
that quality has not augmented since
nor can it augment. And as for com
promise, there has been no possibility
of any thing of the sort since the wal
commenced. We do not acknowledge
the sincerity of any intelligent mar
who claims that there has. If we car
rout, destroy or disperse the rebc
armies, we can restore the Union, anC
restore it on the basis of freedom anC
Justice to all men, as easily as on any
other. And if We cannot conquer those
armies, there will be Southern Con
federacy, though Coppcrheads anc
compromises should become like thu
sands of the sea in number.

Goods BIesaink.R

When the platform was under con-
sideration in the Cleveland Conven-
ton, the Rev. Henry 7. Cheever (bro-
ther Of the Rev DR.. Chesver, of New
York )moved to amend the first resolu.
ton by inserting the words, with Gods
blessing" 30 that it should read as fol.
lows:
"Resolred, That Nth Gods blessing,
the Federal Union must and shall be
preserved
The correspondent Of the Herald tells
us what was the fate of the motion.
"Mr. Cheever's motion caused quite
a sensation among the Germans, ma.
ny Of whom were infdels; but Mr..
Cheever promptly put the question,
as follows; IAN those in favor of
amending the resolution by the in
sertion Of Goods blessing" will say
"aye" all opposed, "no" Gods bless
ing is lost, said Cochrane. The sud-
denness with which it was put, and
several circumstances connected, caus-
ed quite a sensation. The moment
that quiet was restored The Germans
could be heard whispering to each 9TH
er, Dash ish-de man, Dash ish de
man. Watts dat he says bout Gods
blessing? Dish ish de man. From
that moment it was impossible to get
the Germans 10 think of any other
person for Vice President but General
Cochrane, and when his name was
proposed they rushed it through with
will, all owing to that one little cir
cumst0nce, which only shows how
little thing decides q mans fate in
! political campaigns"

How to Pickle cueum bers.

Cut the cucumbers from the vines
without bruising the stems lay them
carefully in a basket; take them to
the cellar; sort and pick them in bar
reIs, putting different sizes in seperate
barrels, spread a layer Of salt between
each layer of ofcucumbers there should
be sufficient salt to entirely cover the
pickles between the layers. Continue
10 pack the cucumbers daily as they
are picked, never using any but fine
cucumbers, dscarding all that are
crooked or Of slow growth. Keep
boards over the pickles, and weight
to press them under the brine, which
will be formed without the addition
of water, with JUICE extracted from the
fruit by the salt. Pickles packed in
this manner may be preserved for
years, If there are no impurities in the
salt; but if the salt is mixed with lime,
they will soon soften and spoil. In
two months after the barrel is filled,
take them from the brine, freshen and
green. To green cucumbers, prepare
alum water; put the pickles in vat
or boiler, lined with timed copper /;
heat the alum water, and pour it over
the pickles. This is the process which
is usually employed by pickle makers,
except that they throw steam into the
watts TO heat the um-water, and if
managed properly the pickles may be
greened with less action of copper
than when scalded in the usual meth
Cd in bright brass kettles. Take the
pickles from the vat when a little
green, and pour over them water boil
ing hot. If not greened sufficiently,
repeat the hot water until they are the
desired color, and when cold, put them
in good vinegar, let them remain un-
til quite soured; the change to pret-
ty strong vinegar. which will keep tho
pickles hard and sour; add to barrel
six large peppers, without bruising,
and keep the pickles uhder the vine.
