Stolen.

We are requested to say that sol
dier's blanket was stolen from sleigh
in front of Gilbert's store in this vii
lage, on the evening of the 29th ult.
The blanket belonged to Mrs. Martha
Hoyt of Mason City, whose husband
was killed in battle at Pleasant Hill,
La. 1t was large, of light gray col
or, was made of fine wool, and had no
marks except the letters "U. s." and
black stripe across each end. This
blanket was the only article of cloth.
ing Mrs. Hoyt had, belonging to her
dear, brave, fallen husband, and she
desires all persons, who love their
country and sympathize with the wild
ows of the slain, to assist in finding
the blanket; information of which
may be left at this office.

Canada.

In addition to their regular force.
the Canadian authorities have called
for thirty companies Of volunteer mill
tia. Thirteen of these are to be raised
in Lower and seventeen in Upper Cam
ada. These companies are for imme-
date duty at different points along the
southern border of Canada. In addi-
ton to these preparations, the Govern
or General Of Canada, in accordance
with the provisions of what is known
as the Service Militia Act. has order
ed draft Sixty-one battalions are
to be drafted in Upper Canada. and fiji
ty-one in Lower Canada. The battal-
ions are to consist Of 1876 men each,
and are to be drafted for three years
service. If the law is fully carried
out. 4s,495 will be drafted in Upper
Canada, and 4O,545 in Lower Canada.
This force, exclusive of the volunteers
already organized, would therefore
amount to 5000, or with officers to
more than 100000.

Downfall of the Rebel ConfederacY.

The end has begun. The protract-
ed and accumulated reverses of the
Confederates, despite which they have
long hoped against hope, have been
crowned by comprehensive defeats
that too plainly mean ruin, swift and
utter. Driven to petty fraction of
their original domain-that fraction
traversed in unresisted triumph by a
national army-expelled from the val
ley of the Mississippi and unseated
from the Gulf-beaten IN the success
sive citadels of the Cotton States, and
their forlorn hope in the West annihi-
lated on the Cumbcrland-co nfessedly
left with scarcely moiety q their
forces, while the grand armies of the
country, uniting, are joined by vic
torious navy in bearing down upon
the last strongholds of the rebellion
dcspairing of rallying more troops
against power coolly proposing to
add three hundred thousand more to
its hosts in arms-rcjecting their own
money for the war currency of their
enemy-distractedly resolving endless
war and repeating that resolve-rent
by bitterest disscnsions while the loyal
nation rs one-lost on the sea, in the
Gulf, in the West, in foreign courts and
markets, and in faith and hopes of
their own peoples it strange that
the rebel leaders have already entered
upon the appropriate employment of
the damned" weeping and wailing
and crashing of the teeth "

The river Amazon has been found to
be navigable from one end to the 9TH
er, so that new route has been OPEN
ed between the Atlantic and the Pacif-
ic. The Morona, Peruvian steamer,
which was sent to explore the ANA
ION, has arrived at Mayro, about 800
miles from Lima. The Morona navi-
gated more than 1000 miles of the
Amazon proper, 600 of the Ycayali
and the Pachitea rivers, which, until
then, had seen only Indian canoes.
The country is, of course, inhabited
only by savages, but is of wonderful
fertility.

The New Year.

The congratulations of the season,
(the Happy New Year, have a main
element of hope, which is the burden
of our kindly good wishes. To the cas-.
ual observer the social festivities OF
the holidays might indicate merely the
recklessness of a mercurial popular
temperament, were there not thou
sand indications that we fully apprc-
ciate the great and solemn business in
which we are engaged--the preserva-
ton of our nationality. Ours is rath-
er the elasticity of hope, the conscious
ness of an enduring and vital strength,
than the love of present pleasure
which is blind to the exactions of to-
day and the foreshadowings of to-mor-
row. If we give ourselves for brief
period to general JOY. it is because we
feel that we have earned the right to
relaxation.
Standing here upon the threshold Of
another year, full as it must be of de-
cisive events, we will think of the
centuries which are to follow, in which
men will read of us, in which states
men and orators will cite our example,
in which poets will sing of our con-
quests, will tell how the assassins of
the Republic were overthrown, and
the inheritance of our fathers trans
mitted in all its integrity to postcrity
The name of Commonwealth may pass
away, the world may witness develop
mcnts of which we do not dream, but
the record of an abiding faith is indel-
ible.
1t were easy to indulge in other and
tenderer reflections, but we refrain.
The times need action the day de-
mands strong hearts and stern endea-
vor. We only pause for a moment to
exchange words of good cheer with
our readers, and then go forward to all
the labor which is before us, without
dependency or one lingering doubt
We welcome the coming year, because
we believe that in it just Judgment
will be rendered, a righteous cause
indicated, and our future happiness
secured. The flight of Time which
lessons the lives of individuals is the
perpetnally renewed and blooming
eternity of the world. So we await
what is before us, without abating one
jot of heart or hope, and pass to an
other era in the still-beginning, never
ending existence of men.

At the breaking out of the rebellion
the General and State Governments
were obliged to purchase Belgian,
British and German muskcts-gener-
ally miserable affairs 4: now the public
and private armories produce an abun-
dance. The Springfield, Mass, armo-
ry the past year produced $50, 900 mus
kets and gave employment to nearly
5000 men. Strange to say, the work
men of the Colts Revolver and Sharp's

there would be no market for such
