The Extra Police Force.

Anticipating. the arrival of the 18th
our city authorities appoint
cd eight extra policemen to eaforce
quiet in cur city. The effect has been
to exasperate the soldiers who consi-
dor it direct imputation Oftheir ina
bility to keep the peace. The selection
of the policemen was equally unfortu-
nate, many of whom have distinguish
ed themselves by their dislcyal proeli-
vities. One instance must suffice to
illustrate. A man was imported from
Berne township to act as a policeman
in the city, who the soldiers months
ago knew was under bonds to appear
at court for stabbing soldier. This
man wearing military coat, is parti-
cularly obnoxious TO the soldiers when.
ever he appears, and the only thing he
can do, to "kcep the peace, is to keep
out of the way.
Whatever may have been the inten'
tion of the authorities, the appoint
ment of this force has been ofno prac-
'tical benefit. The police did not show
themselves at the Eagle mob, and it is
probably quito as well that they did
not-they could not or did not want
to preventive breaking in Of the win
dows of two Union men the night fol
lowing, and appear to be entirely igno
rant as to who should be brought t.
justice for the oatrage. On last Satur
day citizen in company Of soldiers
indiscrctely called General Thomas
and the men who fight under him COW
ards, he was Immediately set upon by
the soldiers, and beaten most severely
and no interference was made by the
police nor arrests afterwards.
The extra pol;ee having proved {
failure, there is no good reason why
they should not be dismissed and th'
city relieved Of an expense Of S12 PEI

Dol. cnpp.

The remains Of Col. Valentine H..
Cupp, Of the lst Ohio Cayalry, arrived
in this city yesterday. The'body was
conveyed under . military escort, to
the house of Major Perry, from whence
it was taken to his former residence in
Walnut township.
Col. Cupp entered the service early in
the fall Of 1861, and in q short time re-
crdited d company, Of which he was
made Captain,-taking with him to
Columbus some thirty more men than
was allowed in cavalry company.
He was promoted to Lieutenant-
Colonel soon after the battle Of Stone
River, and to Colonel last August.
He was at one time taken prisoner at
Lavergne, Tenn, by band of guer-
rillas, who captured the train upon
which he was, bound for Nashville.
Fortunately he arrived at Richmond
at the time of an exchange ofprisoh-
ers, and so escaped the HORRORS ofLib-
by Prison. He made his way home,
and soon rejoined his regiment. AT
the battle of Chicamauga, he fell NOR
tally wounded, and was again in the
hands of the enemy. David Ault, a
private of his former company, was
detailed to remain with him, which
he did until his death, when he buried
him with his own hands. Ault wa:
taken to Libby Prison and on the way
to Danvillo, Va, he uncoupled the
cars, and with thirty others, escaped

"Close his eyes. his work is done,
What to him is friend or foeman,
Rise Of moon or set Of sun,
Hand of man or kiss Of woman.
AS man may, he fought his fight,
Proved his truth by his endeaySr,
Let HIM Sleep in solemn night,
Aeep forever andfOreser
Fold him in mis- country's stars;
Roll the drum and fire the Solley,
What to him are all our wars,
What but death cvoking folly.
Leave him to Gods watching eye,
Trust him to the Hand that made him;
Montn love w61ks dy by
God alone has power to aid him"
