THIS rebellion having been on its last
legs for several years with back broken
in at least two dozen places and being
now held firmly by the throat in death
grasp by GRANT, is yet SO wiry and
troublesome as to require 100000 men
more to put an end to it. We suspect
that we have caught tartar on the JAMES,
and that it takes the 100000 to help to
let go.

Htna Life Insurance Company of Hartford
Connecticut is doing much to provide for the
relief Of the families of those who die, leaving
them without adequate provision. life is
uncertain-death is sure to come and every
prudent man will provide for those who are
dependent upon him. By insuring with the
Htna, every man by small outlay,--an out
lay within the reach of the most hnmbe-can
provide an amount of money for his family,
which will be theirs, in spite Of misfortune
and the many changes and chances of 5usi
ness and of life. Those who are in prosper
Gus circumstances to-day, may meet with re-
verses and die poor.
The Etn1 have in the last few days paid
over to the wife of John Bart dec d the sum of
81 900 the amount for which he had insured
his life with them. This makes the sum Of
$4,000 paid in this manner so the families OF
well known citizens of Dayton in the last
eighteen months. No other company has
done so much for the people of Dayton and
we think the company are entitled to the
thanks of the people and the patronage Of all
who are insurable.
The prosperity Of the Etna, we are glad
to state, is nov greater than ever before. Its
business this year will be more than double
that of any proceeding year-honestly and

ted, that the hour has now come when
that great party can justly vindicate its
devotion to true democratic policy and
measures OF expediency. The war is war
of great principles. 1t involves the su-
premacy and life of the government
itself. IF the rebellion triumphs, free
government north aud south fails. If,
on the other hand, the government is sue
cessful, as l do not doubt, its destiny is
fixed, its basis permanent and enduring,
and its career of honor and glory just
beguh. In a great contest like this for
the existence of free government, the path
of duty is patriotism and principle. Minor
considerations and questions Of admins
trative policy should give way to the
higher duty of preserving the government,
and then there will be time enough to
wrangle over the men and measures per-
tanning to its administration.
This is not the hour for strife and
division among ourselves. Such differ
ences of opinion only encourage the enc
my, prolong the war, and waste the country.
Unity of action and concentration of
power should be our watch word ard raj
lying cry. This accomplished, the tine
will rapidly approach when their armies
in the feld-the great power OF the
rchellion-will be broken and crushed By
our gallant officers and brave soldiers, and
ere long they VIII return to their homes
and fresides to assume again the avoca-
tons of peace, with the proud conscious
ness that they have aided in the noble
work of re-establishing upon surcr and
more permanent basis the great temple of
American freedom.

high regard,

The Soldiers vvaysIde Dream.
From Godey's Lady's Book.1

The word was Crest" The dusty road was
rocky, worn and steep;
And many sunbrowned soldiers head sank
on his breast to sleep.
Afar, the Alabama hills swept round in bill
lowy lines;
The soft green of their bowery slopes was
dotted dark with pines;
And from their tops a gentle breeze, born in
the cloudess sky,
Stole through the valley where q stream was
slowly warbling by;
And, as it passed. it brought cloud Of odors
in its plumes,
OF violets and columbines, and milk-white
plum-tree blooms,
The GOODNESS and the perfume DER my weary
senses crept,
And with my musket on my arm bowed my
head and slept
No more the Alabama hills, more the wa
wing pines,
But still the scent of Violets and red wild COL
umbines
L drew myNbreath in ecstasy, my feet were
shod with joy
l dreamed l trod the prairie sod in my beau
tiful Illinois.
The lark sang welcome from the grass, the
well-known path along,
And the pulsations of my heart seemed echoes
l thought the sunlight never shone so glori-
ously before,
But sweeter were the smiles of love that. met
at the door.
0, hold my hand while yet you may, love of
my earlier years,
And wet my face, my mother, with thy proud
and happy tears;
And bless me again, my father-bless me
again, pray
For hear the bugle-hear the drum-I have
but an hour to stay.
Alas my dreaming words were true /; l woke,
and knew it all
/ heard the clamor of the drum heard the
captains call
And over all another voice oft had heard
before:
A sound that stirs the dullest heart-the can
mons mufiied roar.
No longer "Rest," but "Forward !" for ere
the day is done,
1t win tell of the fearful glory of battle lost
and won
And ere the breath of its blackened lips time
hath to lift away,
Ny hand must be red and warm with blood,
or white and cold as clay
o. pray for me in thy gentle heart, love of my
earlier years
And, mother, only weep for me those proud
and happy tears
And bless me again, my father, bless me
while yet you may
My dream-words may be doubly true-I may
have but an hour to stay

A Thrilling EacideR..

The records Of ancient or modern his
tory may be traced in vain for more re-
niarkable instance of heroic fortitude sub
lime patriotism, and unwaverins faith IN
the Almighty arm, than that which is re.
lated below, for the truth of, which the
Rev. Mr. StartEman, of Hagerstown,
vouches. The incident occurred during
the rebel invasion of July last:-
Mr.. George Blessing, a farmer, residing
near MyersvilIe, Frederick county, (Md.,)
when it was learned that the rebels were
prowlipg through the neighborhood steal
ing horses and committing dcpredations
generally, was importuncd by his family
to remove his stock beyond the reach Of
the marsuders, which he declined doing,
avowing his purpose to defend his proper
ty to the last extremity. He had ten
guns in his house, which he proceeded to
load and put in readiness, in the event
of a necessity arising for using them.
At noon, on the ID Of July, he gather
ed his family about him and read aloud
the 9lst Psalm-"I will say of the Lord,
Ue is my refuge and my fortress; my
God in Him will trust, when he en-
gagged IN devotional worship, impioring
the Most High to shield and protect his
household trom the assaults and rapacity
of the enemy who were laying waste his
native soil, and seeking to overthrow the
best government ever devised by the wis
dom of man, pleading God to uphold and
sustain the old flag of his fathers.
Taking two guns, he repaired, with his
son, lad yet in his teens, to his barn,
from which he deserted squad of rebels
approaching oc horseback. Handing his
son a gun, he ordered him to take 2 GER
tain position, and, should the squad dis
mount and attempt to break open the
doors of the stable, which were fastened
by locks, to fire upon them. The rebels
advanced to within short distance OF the
stable, when one of the number threw
himself from his horse and commenced
the work Of denolishing the stable door.
At that ploment the old man and his son
fred simultaneously upon the offender,
both balls taking effect in his right arm.
The balance of the party scampered away,
leaving their wou pded comrade behind,
and swearing vengeance upon the resistants.
Before they had escaped beyond the each
OF Mr. BIS gun, he fred a second shot at
the fleeing foe, but with what result he
could not tell. The rebel at whom he
aimed fell forward on bis horse, evidently
wounded, but he managed to get away.
NIr. Blessings neighbors, learning what
he had done, waited upon him, and, by
every argument they could advance,
.ndeayored to d:ssuade him from his pur-
pose to "stand his ground" They tried
20 prevail upon him to leave the vicinity
and seek refuge from the infuriated rebels,
who would return with reinforoements,
and lot only destroy his property but
would murder him and his son. Bubthe
brave old patriot was immovable in his
purpose to defend his property, whether
in the event his life should be forfeited.
He expressed infinite confidence in his
