AN AFFECTING IhGIDENT-SINGING RALLY ROUND

Our worthy State Military Agent at Nash

to his wife, relates the following affecting in
cidenr He says;
Las, evening as was passing The Post

singing in rather loud tone, OF Rally

nurse standing in the doorway, that the per-
son singing must be in very merry mood
and could not he very sick. you are mis-
taken, sir" said he, "Jhe man engaged in sing
ing that good old song is now erappli g with
death--bas been dying alt day. an hi
nurse" he continued, land The scene affec-
ted me thai was obliged TO leave the room.
He is about breathing his last" | stepped
into the ward, and true enough the brave mau
was near his end. His eyes were already fix
ed in death. He was struggling with all his
remaining strength against the grim monster,
while at the same time there gushed forth
| from his patriotic seul incoherently the words,
"RaIly round the aag boys" Which had so Of
ten cheered him through the weary march,
aud braced him up when entering the field OF
blood, in defense of his country. Finally be
sank away into his death slumber and joined
his Makers command that is marching on
ward to that far of, better land. The last
audible sound that escaped his lips raj
ly boys, rally once again" As his eyes were
closing some dozen of his comrades joined in
that solemn yet beautiful hymn appropriate tc
the occasion Take it altogether this was one o
the most affecting scenes l have ever wit
messed in a hospital 1t drew tears copious!y
from nearly One hundred of us. 1t occurred
in the large ward which occupies the entire
body of the church on Cherry street. Th'

LINCOLN MADE THIS WAR, +"

Such is the Copperhead cry, and some OF
them believe it. Let such look over these
facts as set forth by Gov. Morton, in his de-
bate with Mcdonald at Laporte. Indiana, on
last Wednesday. Gov. Morton said 4;
CAS- to Mr.. Lincoln making this war In
October, 1853, more than one year before Mr..
LiucoIn's election, Floyd, Secretary Of War,
issued an order sending Is 900 muskets to
Southern arseuaIs During the whole of that
Administration orders were issued sending
guns and munitions of war to Southern ar
senals. In October, 1860, just before Lin
colns election, Gen. Scott notified Mr.. Lin,
CON that preparations were being made to
seize the forts and arsenals in the South aud
h. fore Mr.. Lincoln was inaugurated eight of
The rebellious States had seeded. The Mont
gomery Constitution was framed and Davis
was inaugurated as President Of the South
rin Confederscy, Mr.. Davis said in his in
augural speech: "THE TIME FOR COM
PROMISE IS PAST, AND IF THEY
RESIST SECESSION WE WILL MAKE
THEM FEEL SOUTHERN STEEL AN D
SOUTHERN GUN-POWDER." And on
that day they had some $4,000 men under
arms. At that time we had less than
5000 under arms. But before the date OI
Mr.. LincOlns Inauguration, as early as the
first OF March, every fort, arsenal, dOckyard
and mint bad been seized by the rebels, ex-
cept Sumter, and Major AndersoR was hold
ing that. Ali this was done during Buchan-
ans administration. And yet for the pur'
pose of dividing this people, it is said, Mr.
Lincoln made this war"
