OUR Two VETERANS. Veteran are
no longer novelty In this country
Every day they pass in honorable pro.
cession through the streets ON their re-
turns from camps and battle-fields. But
we have two veterans, representing both
branches OF the service, who are, per-
haps, the most advanced in age of any
living representatives of the army and
navy OF any country. There is the vet
eran Winfield Scott, who was congratu-
lated by party of bis fellow-citizens at
West Point, on the 18th OF last month,
upon attaining his seventy-niuth birth
day. Scott was born during the progress
of the Revolutionary war, few years
before the adoption OF the Constitution,
and ten years after the Declaration OF
Independence. The great American
soldier and the American nation are
nearly coeval Winfield Scott has lived
through three wars, aud each war vic.
tory, yet his form is as erect as ever. He
used to say that he was SO tall and his
him proud. If he only had stoop, he
thought he would be considered mod
est man. However, although In his
eightieth year, his back boneis still stiff.
Tie Oldest representative of the navy,
who also witnessed three wars, Is Rear
Admiral Charles Stewart, of Philadel-
phia, who was eighty-seven years old on
Friday, and had been sixty-seven years
of his long life in the American navy.
He was born in ITS, just after the Bri.
fish evacuated Philadelphia, and he Is
reported ,o-dsy to be ''active, healthy
and cheerful" These are veterans Of
whom the country may be proud. Born
almost with the republic. they have liv-
ed to see it pass through trials out of
which few nations have come triumph-
antly.--N. Y. Herald.

THE PRICE OF GoLD.-There Is q
strong feeling among the gold operators
in Wall street for a rise in the premium
on coin. The argument is this THAT
the disbursements of the national trea-
sury will plethorize the money market,
and. as there is no national loan now to
absorb the surplus, demand will be
created for gold for the purpose of hoard
ing until such time as another govern
ment loan may be authorized, which
| cannot take place until Congress meets
| in December. The increased importa-
lions have also tendency to raise the
price under the anticipation of foreign
| demand. On the other hand, it is held
that the government, with a surplus OF
| TWENTY-FIVE millions, can at any time
prevent a rise by throwing from two 70
Ave millions upon the market, or any
amount sufficient to break down the
operations and anticipations OF the ouils

THE ENGLISH ELECTIONS. elec'
lions in England were still progressing,
and absorbed the greatest attention.
Five hundred fifty returns had been
made up to the evening OF the 18th, OF
which three hundred and twenty-three
were protesting liberals and two hundred
| and twent-seven conservatives.
| The liberals claim a ret gain of eigh-
teen; but the Morning Herald (cOnser-
vative) only comedies gain of fourteen.
There were one hundred and six seats
vet to be filed.
The Irish elections were going largely
in favor If the liberals.
The most important of the contests
determined on the 18th was that for Ok
ford University, Mr.. Gladstone having
been rejected by a majority of one hun
dred and eighty votes. This result left
Mr.. Gladstone free to accept the invita-
ton to stand for South Lancashire, and
he promptly repaired to that county,
where he was welcomed with the
utmost enthusiasm. He had addressed
great crowds at Manchester and Liver
POOL, and met with perfect ovations at
both places. The election would take
place on the Goth, and it was very gen.
erally anticipated, Notwithstanding. Mr..
Gladstone's late appearance in the field,
| and the vigorous efforts that had been
made by the conservatives, that he
would be elected. 1t was felt that the
verdict of Oxford would release Mr.,
| Gladstone from the trammels which
such a constituency necessarily imposed
upon its representatives, and give hin,
| full scope for the exercise OF his liberia
principles.

Repentant Rebels in the Union Service

Theregiment organized at Point Look
out, Maryland, and made up of rebel
prisoners, is now stationed at Fort Rice,
Dacotah Territory. The regiment is
called the 10th United States Infantry,
and, If we are to Judge by action and
declaration, are as proud of their title
and the Old Flag as any of the "boys in
blue" They publish weekly little
newspaper appropriately named the
Frontier Scout, which thus gives the
history of the organization of the COM
mand: II.
"Before each man was enlisted, he
was separately questioned, and had
these four alternatives: either to be ex-
changed, paroled, to go North and work
on Government Notifications, or enlist
in the service of the United States as
soldier. There was no compulsion in
any shape used. 1t was an act of their
own free will. There were no reserva-
lions or promises made that they would
not be sent to the front to engage In
deadly conflict with their quondam
friends. They made the choice at q
time when the Southern Confederacy
was as likely to succeed as at any time
in its history. But they cast their mite
in with the United States when she
needed every man she could MUSTER
No bounty was offered them, no glaring
Inducements We're held out, no chicane-
ry or flattery was employed. They were
made of such stuff as not to be moved
by such means as those.
"Their whole course and behavior has
displayed that unadulterated patriotism
was the only motive that urged them
on. They felt confident that they were
at last on the right side, and the right
must succeed. Without moments de-
murring, they shouldered their muskets
and donned their equipments, ready to
go wherever their country called. Many
have laid down their lives at the beck Of
disease, some have been murdered by
the arrow of the savage, and they, with
but few exceptions, living or dead, have
been true to their trust.
"How petty will all the ISLANDERS utter.
ed against them sound alongside of the
fact, that forever in history they will be
recorded as the noble first fruits of re.
conciled and united people,"
The United States colors were present
ed to the regiment at Norfolk on the 4th
| of June, 1864.

A correspondent of the New York
Evening Post thus describes the Union
feeling In South Carolina:
II one is convinced that the old love
Tor the Union has returned, that It never
was out OF the hearts of this people, let
| him examine some of these signs: A
| citizen sends watermelon as present
TO the colonel of O regiment. The next
day he asks, and obtains, u safeguard to
| protect his fruit or to keep his abundant
well-water from the soldiers; five wells
near small camp were thus guarded
| lately, and veteran soldiers were COM
| PEELED TO 60 mile in the sun to obtain
drinkingwater Another invites an of.
ficer cordially to his plain dinner as
if in " hospitality" before the visit Ia
over the officer finds that he has SUBJ
scribed literally towards the rattle of his
hosts beautiful English gun, which Is
an useless expense in these days of cap
tured arms.
III a single gentleman arrives ii town,
papas- pronouncedvery fat--inyite him
often to see their daughters, who inva-
riably possess some qualification "une-
qualled in the State.n Age is no objec-
ton. AT these visits he first hears good
words for the Union; he thinks that the
rebels deserve a better name. Soon the
subject of niggers is introduced,
even by ladies. If he says yes to few
of their complaints, the fiood-gates OF
their hearts are suddenly opened, and
he has tumbling about his ears love,
broken engagements, disappointments,
prejudices, hates, and, worst of all, one
great hate towards the Union. If he
sees by this time that the present Of q
watermelon or q few small UOtatOos an
invitation to dinner, tune at the piano,
are not expressions of patriotism OF, re-
pentance for treason, and turns away
sickened, unable to go again into tho
society of those whose only love is for
self, he must certainly begin to doubt
| the signs.
| Ifone is invited, it may be with agen-
eral and staff, to attend brilliant we'd
ding of all officer to some true woman,
though young in years, and heartily
concludes that the whole South and the
whole North are as strongly united as
these two, he may be surprised to hear
that while these festivities are going on
there are other parties in town celebra-
ting rebel valor by ch0rades, and nurs-
| ing treason for a future day by witty
speeches against the Yankees, and those
who marry them.
Thus the daughter of the newly APP
pointed Bible agent for Georgia and
South Carolina Rev. z. A. Eolie;, was
led to the altar by Captain OF the
Twenty-fifth Ohio veteran volunteers,
this week. That fact added to the I'M
qualified loyalty of the worthy father,
has kept tattiers busy, and these tattlers
are the only rebel politicians who speak
with IMMUNITY.
