sAGREEABLE.-Thomson of the GAINESVILLE
Gazette, writes from Madison that young
married man who left his wife in Delavan, Wal
worth county, and enlisted in the Government
service at an early day, has been reported
dead for a long time, and his friends have
mourned for him as of that number whose
graves ridge the accused soil of the South
But he was neither dead nor sleeping, only
a prisoner and was recently exchanged and
ordered to report at this place, which he did
one day this week.
Falling in with a friend here from his old
home, he was naturally eager in his inquiries
about relatives and acquaintances, and es-
pecially as to the welfare of her whom he had
so ardently loved through all the disappoint-
ments and hardships of a soldiers life. Inn
agine his surprise and bitter disappointment
when informed that his wife, believing him
dead, had married another 2 Here we drop
the curtain, leaving it to the imagination of
the reader TO conceive of that tableau which
will soon take place, when the brave and
honored soldier confronts the faithless wife
and the unfortunate man who calls himselfher
husband.

So much has bccn said Of late regarding the bes
means OF caring for the sick poor our city that
do not intend to trouble you with any further pnns
or objections to those already put forth, but
only Gull attention to the subject because now Is
The time for action. The Board Of Supervisors Is
now In session, and they have the entire control OF
this matter. The sick poor Of our city have 20
other source Of relief except such Is furnished
By the county, and II we arc to have a reform in
this matter it must come through the Supervisors.
They have Just paid q visit to the County House,
Now would It not be well for them to inquire what
proysion is made for these poor, when sickness is
added to their poverty. Whatinstftntion does the
county furnish those who are not only poor, but,
still more unfortunately, sick. II the county has
made such good provision for the poor, surely
they have not neglected that large class who are
both poor nnd sick. One wou1d think not. But
they have. And eycn now, when the sub Jet Is
brought prominently before them, thcre arc inal-
catons that It will receive no Erch attention Is
demanded This city, with its $50, poo Inhabitants
ed public wants them properly cared for; and II
the Board Of Supervisors refuse to do 80, on the
false plea Of economy, then eome action must be
made, whereby the interests Of this class will be
cared for In some other way. It will not do to
leave tho sick poor ofa large city like this without
any means OF relief, adequate to meet their wants.
aud the question now for the Supervisors to decide
is, whether they will fnrnish the necessary support
end fulfill their duty to the public, or leave # to
he provided in some other way. The public, tag
payers and NIL, demand IN immediate reform Ia
this matter. Not another city In the Union, Of
even one-haf the size but that has its public hos
and humanity demand it. Will the Supervisors
