THE question of restoration of the Union Like
that of the recovery of one who has been i'll for
long time, requires time patience and care. 1t
will come out all right in the end. We have
passed the crisis and are not likely to have re-
lapse. We agree with one of our ablest writers
and statesmen, that our object should be to sound
the depths of the question of restoration, by Gre
ating, as far as we car, a healthy and righteous
American sentiment. And to do this, 1T would
be we'll to initiate the wise surgeon in his treat
mont of a fractured limb. Let the parts be
cleaned of oil morbid surroundings; let the gem
eral system be soothed and allayed and freed
from febrile symptoms; let the diet be OF peace
and fraternity; place the broken portions in con-
nection; direct ell our skill and nursing 70 tnell
cure and Nature will soon accomplish the good
work. Who can doubt it who surveys our coun-
try. far and wide, and understands the charac-
ter of our people? We must not be In a hurry'
or over-anxious. We must wait and labor.

OUoTA FOR DELAWARE TOWNSHIP
The meeting held Tuesday eveningfor the
purpose of taking action with view to
raising the quota of our township under
the pending call for men, was not largely
attended-the extreme inclemency of the
weather probably deterring many persons
from venturing out The Committee hav-
ing charge of the matter estimate that a
contribution of $25 on the part of each
person in the township subject to draft
would produce a sum sufficient to secure
the requisite number of men. Some pro-
gress in procuring subscriptions has been
made, but the success of the canvassers
has not been such as to give much room for
hope that the required sum can be raised.
Efforta are to be continued, however, and
no argument should be required to satisfy
all interested of the propriety of immedi-
ately coming forward and putting down
their names Certainly if that am mount OF
money will suffice to clear the township,
it should be raised, and if all will take
hold and do their part it can be. The
time for action is short, and what is done
must be done promptly. Another meet
ing will be held at Templar Hall to-mor-
row evening, the action of which meeting
will probably decide the question whether
a determined and earnest effort is to be
made to clear the township, or each per
son be left to look out for himself, Nc
one should fail to attend this meeting, fol
il is q matter that deeply interests all.

LAKE DISASTERS IN l964.-The Detroit
Tribune publishes a list of three hundred and
seventy-nine marine disasters that have oe-
Cured on the lakes during the past year.
They are thus classified Explosions, 8 cap
sized, 7 ashore, 1928; sprung leak, 15l de-
stroyed by fire, 4 +; lost sails, 2O2 foundered,
9; collisions, Al. There can be no doubt
these estimates are below the actual number,
Notwithstanding they show an increase over
last year of twenty-nine. The loss Of canvas
and damage done by vessels to cargoes which
sprung q leak far exceeds similar losses in any
former season.

AN ARMY ON THE MARCH.-A mem
Der of Company A, 121st Regiment, in q
letter from Savannah to the Marysville
Tribune, thus graphically describes the
appearance of an army on the move
through an enemy's country and foraging
for supplies:
L will try and give you an idea of the
appearance of the Army on this move
First, imagine four long strings, yes sew
eral miles long, of men, mules, wagons
government beeves, artillery, niggers and
jaekasses, all mixed up, and travelling to-
gether. Next imagine about one-half the
soldiers with chuncks of honey in their
sticky fingers, eating as they go, with g
sack of sweet potatoes, or corn meal on
one shoulder, and an unskined ham, or a
lot of fresh spare ribs stuck on their bay
onets. Then imagine nearly every sol
dier, and scores of niggers, with from one
to a dozen chickens, turkeys, ducks OF
geese tied somewhere about their persons,
these all alive Now imagine that you
hear the squalling, squaWking and COB
bling of several hundreds of these fowls
all at one time, together with the squeal-
ing on either flank of young fat porkers,
which no doubt have intercepted the paths
of some of our foragers, and as a punish
ment have to submit to be quartered and
carried to camp. I say imagine all this.
and you will have tolerably correct idea
Of a large army on the move, guarding its
trains and foraging its way"
