In Memooriam.

LINCOLN, April Sd, 1865.
To the Editor of the Press:
Permit me TO call attention, through your
columns, to the death ofanother brave officer.
who has fallen victim to this wicked rebel
lion, Charles Wiley Mute of Lincoln, twill
pe remembered that, at the beginning of the
war, enlistments We're more active in this vi
entity than In any other part OF the country,
he enlisted the first full company for the 18th
Maine Regiment, and was commissioned Lieu
tenant. His popularity among the soldiers
soon brought him promotion to Captain,
and very soon after to Major of the first
Maine Heavy Artillery. He was under Grant
IN the bloody battle of Spotsylvania, and all the
battles OF the Wilderness, where he gained not
only the respe ct Of his men, but the confidence
OF the higher officers. He was in front of Pc
tersburg on the 18th, and in that terrible
charge while leading on his men was wound-
ed and carried from his field. He was obig-
ed to be away from his regiment nearly
four months, when, on his return he participa-
ted in the charge at Hatcher's Run, and very
soon after died.
He was a member of the masonic order and
had the esteem OF all its members. He was
highly esteemed by all classes, and when the
sad intelligence came that he was no more.
sadness was depicted on many countenance.
His remains were carried to New Hampshire
and deposited by his wife, who had died
while attending him in the army. The people
here, while they mourn over their heavy loss
have the consolation that he was a worthy
sacrifice, for that cause which will eventually
accomplish the great work attempted
