THE FALLEN HERos.

The death Of the noble volunteer veteran,
General Wadsworth, of New York, is undoubted-
ly the greatest individual loss, thus far, of the
present conflict in Virginia. An upright, honest,
brave, devoted soldier-a hale, gray headed man,
who left his farm and his wealth, among the
yeomanry of New York, to take part in the war
he fell leading q charge Of his division a man
worthy of the old Revolution. General Wads-
worth possessed large wealth and position in
New York, and w0s as benevolent as influential
and rich. He was the Union candidate against
Governor Seymour in New York. His death is
a severe loss to the service of his country and
State, but it will add much TO the glory of their
history.
Brigadier General Alexander Hays, of Pitts
burg, is another conspicuous soldier lost TO the
muster Of our brave leaders. His daring was
proverbial-at Gettysburg he carried the flag OF
his brigade in front of his men, and in the face
Of the enemy. Originally colonel Of a Pittsburg
regiment, he became brigadier for gallantry at
AutietGm. He graduated at West Point.
BrigAdier General Alexander Webb was tho
son of General Watson Webb, once the widely
known editor OF the New York Courier and En-
quirer, and now Minister to Brazil. A man Of
culture, ability, aud modesty-a soldier always
brave and trusted-hu has passed into death and
history at the early age OF 27.
Brgadier General Bartlett was veteran of all
the battles of the Army of the Potomac, and at
the outbreak of the war lawyer in Bingham
ton, New York. His gallant death crowned a
most honorable career.

Which is TO wOrn-out things applied,

MAJOR GENERAL sEDaWIoK.

Already this campaign has been fatal to Off
GERS distinguished in either army. To-day we
regret to add to the melancholy list of our slain
generals the name of Major General SedgWck
commander of the 9th Army Corps, who was
instantly killed in skirmish near Spottsyvania.
General Sedgwick throughout the war has been
prominently known as an able and energetic
officer. lie was twice offered the command of
the Army Of the Potomac, it is said, but was
contented with subordinate position. He was
native of Connecticut, and entered the West
Point Academy from that State in 1888. He
was member Of the same class with Henry W.
Benham, Edw. d. Townsend, Joseph Hooker,
Braxton Bragg, William W. Mackall, John G.
Pemberton, and others now serving in the Fed
eral and Confederate armies. Graduating in
1887, be was assigned to the I'd Artillery, rank
ing as second lieutenant by brevet He was
promoted first lieutenant April 10, 1889. In the
Mexican war he took an active part, being bre-
vetted captain August 10th, 1847, 'ior gallant
and meritorous conduct in the battles of Con-
treras and Churubuseo," and brevetted major
September 18th of the same year for similar
conduct in the battle of Chapulepeo. He re-
ceived his full commission as captain in January,
l849, and as major in the 1st Cavalry in March,
1856. On the 25th of April, 1861, he was pro
NOTED to be colonel Of the 4th Cavalry, and on
the 3lst of August following was appointed
brigadier general of volunteers. He was ap-
pointed major general July A, 1862, and wound
ed in one Of the battles on the Potomac Of the
same year. In his death the country has lost
one of its best soldiers, aud the army a veteran
leader.

Seven Prominent Reasons why Cheap
John is the Only First Glass Store in
WiImintOn.

1st-Because he hangs no goods out at the
door to get spoiled, thereby taking advantage Of
his customers by selling them for new goods.
2d-Because he leaves no Dry Goods Boxes
piled up on his payment on Sabbath-day, to
make the people believe something that is not
so.
3d-Because he never tells you if you do not
take the article now you cannot have it for the
same il you come back
4th-Because he never runs down any other
store to build up his own.
6th-Because he always asks the lowest price
first to make all his customers alike.
6th-Beause he sells at less profits than any
other store.
7th-Because he keeps the largest and best
ssortment of goods of any in the city.
