AddresD to the soldiers.

Weprint this morning an excellent and
stirring address from Adjutans General
Pierpoiut to the soldiers of West Virginia;
In which, on behalf OF His Excellency. the
Governor, he tenders to them the grateful ae~
acknowledgements of the people of the State
for the magnificent result which they have
been so largely instrumental in achieving.
The General pays our brave boys hand
some compliment, and never was a CON.
piimenr better deserved. West Virginia
may indeed be proud of the record her vol
uuteers have made in the war for the "a
ion, and of the rank they7Will take in his
tory.
There is one portion of this address
which ought to be carefully and thought
fully considered by those 10 whom it is I'D
dressed. General Pierpoint tells our SOL
diers that while the rebellion is virtually
ended, the government deems it wise to res
tain a portion Of the army tor a short time,
mill the chaotic and discordaht elements
in the conquered south resolve themselves
INTO harmonious and orderly condition
of society, and he appeals to those who
may not now be mustered ont to forego
whatever impatient desire they may, and
% lrally must, feel to return ct once to
their homes and the voOAtions of private
citizens, and yield gracefully to the neces-
sity which the Governmentfeels constrainr
ed TO impose, of q few months longer
service now, happily, neither ar
duuus nor dangerous. Let it be
considered that the cheerful service Of
every man whose service the country needs
is just as sacred and patriotic duty as it
was in the dark hours of three years ago.
II the authorities whose duty it is to pro.
vide safety for the country, believed that
the whole OF the army could safely be dis
banded, and good order as readily estab
lshed without it, every soldier would be
discharged just as soon ss the necessary
formaIities could receive attention. But
they deem it not yet cafe or advisable to
diSband ell the army; and it is not at all
improbable that those who are retained
will perform a most important and essen.
tiaI work in preventing, perhaps by their
presence alone, violent disorders and Out>
breaks, and in completing the restoration
of the good order that is to follow on the
heels of the peace conquered by themselves
and their cOmrades-in.arms. Remember
that the noblest soldier is the one who has
no desire to be anything else as long as
his country needs his service.
We are not sure, from the present work.
ing of the mastering out machinery, that
those who remain in the service will not
suffer less chagriu, delay and disappoiut-
ment than those who are to be mustered
out now. Certainly they will if the i'm
provemeut needed in this department is
made before they are discharged.

Wheeling, June 9, 1865.
GENERAL ORDEE No. e.
Under recent orders issued from the War
Department, many of you will soon be
mustered out and discharged the service Of
the United State, and allowed to return 70
your homes, to your families and friends,
TO enjoy the blessings Of citizens of free
government for which you have 30 long, so
nobly and so CALAMITY fought.
Although it is believed that ell the fight
ing has been done, and the war is virtual.
yAt an end, YET the Government deems it
necessary to retain a large proportion of
jour numbeF in-the serVice,-it is to be
hoped, for but short time Among those
to be retained in the service are the yete-
rams who have been engaged 80 nobly and
periodically in the war ever since its COM
meucement. .4
Those of you who are required under
existing Sorders TO remain in the service,
are counseled TO be patient and exhibit,
only, the Same patriotism and devotion 70
the cause OF your country that you have in
the four yeArs ot-hot contest aud battle
strife through which you have passed. II
is bat natural that AZ of you should desire
to return to your homes, at once, and all
realize, what must be your most monoro-
nous duty, without the anticipation and
excitement Of active field duty, to which
you have been 80 accustomed.
The orders which have been issued for
the reduction Of our Armies are such as
have been deemed most wise and prudent
by the government, and will not be CUES.
toned by the good soldier. It is hoped
that the day is not far distant when all our
organizations will be allowed to return to
their homes.
To all of you, His EzcelIeucy, the Gov
ernOr, tenders the congratulations and
thanks of the people of the State. We re.
GREETED the necessity which called you from
your homes to the fields of blood, and
mourn with you the loss of your brave
comrades, who have fallen martyrs for hu !.
man liberty. With uubounded pride and
Satisfaction We welcome the returning
braves to the enjoyment OF the liberty,
which was SO long threatened, but which
has been preserved by your self-sacrifeing
devotion.
The history you have made in the past
four years elevates you il the esteem and
affection of all good citizens, and the ma.
ton owes you q debt of gratitude which
can never be paid. No troops from any
State or country have a brighter record
than West Virginians. The fame and glo-
~ you have won for yourselves, your State
and your country, are Rs imperishable as
the liberty you have fought to secure.
By order of tie Governor.
