Z THE following rebel song was originally pub
lished in one OF the Mobile papers, and had
large circulation through tho Southern press !:
sHERIDANs RAID.
From Shenandoahs Valley fair.
Borne on the chilly midnight air,
tElf Sheridan.
Women and babes, the old, the lame,
Are shivering round the smouldering fame,
And quivering lips pronounce thy nome
Sheridan.
In mountain gorge and fertile plain
Charred ruins now alone remain,
And carcasses of dumb hrutes slain
Sheridan.
Destruction swept that land in haste,
And left the fields blackened wastes
No food is there for man TO taste,
No black-winged tempest in its ire.
Has caused this widespread ruin dire;
Twas thou that swept this land with hre-
Sheridan.
Thine was the deed-oh, fendish man
But the Moloch of the Northern clan
Conceived the diabolic plan =, -,
lie sought man on land and sea
To execute his black decree,
And turned his blood shot eyes on thee
Sheridan.
proper man aye, cen ifhell
Should spew up all the hends that fell.
None could be found to serve so we'll
Sheridan.
For unto thee pale woman's means,
The infants screams old ages groans.
Are sweeter than the harp strings tones
Sheridan.
And burning homes, whose lurid CLEAN
Light up blue Steamboats, stream,
Are fairer than poets dream,
But tremble now. thy hour is near,
Tho widows wall. the orphans tear,
For vengeance cry-and 1t is here
Sheridan
The " valley-men are en- thy track,
They've stood beside their homesteads black,
And sworn to drive the blood-hounds back
Sheridan.
Old Jubal's face is bright once more,
As be reviews his gallant corps,
His bloody work for them in store |
Sheridan.
And old Virginia's Roderick Dhu.
Brave Mosby and his gallant crew,
Areperched upon the mountains blue
Sheridan.
There they a constant vigil keep.
And the neighboring plain and valley sweep
With piercing eyes that never sleep,
Sheridan.
Beware the vengeance Of that troop
When from their airy height they stoop,
Swift as gray eagles in their sW0Op-

The Moline Republicans insists that the
.oo.heru states are out of the Union, because
the hsosas corpus il not yet restored there.
Il says:
"The habess corpus is suspended by &C, of con-
g,ess. through the president AZ executor, and the
law itself, il we remember rightly, makes the con-
fuued suspension depend upon the ssopinIon'' OF
III, president. Now will the ARGUs contend that
these states fully restored TO the Union with
these chains upon them q"
Will the Republican contend that Ohio and
Illinois were out of the Union, when ''these
chains" were upon them, ct one time during
the late war?

attention OF our readers to DR.. Easterly's adyer-

cases. but prepares a remedy for each particular
disease, which can be relied upon to cure. If
families would supply themselves with variety
Of his medicines, many doctors bill might be

CoL DAsFoRrH.-It may be interesting to
some OF your readers TO see an accurate state
Inent of the mortality ofthe city of Rock Island
for the last ten years. To crafty such, as well
a. TO show that the ratio of mortality is very
og here, send you the following figures taken
from the books of "Chippiannock Cemetery Asso-
citation, 'aud other reliable sources.
Total number of interments in Chippiannock
Cemetery from Jan'y 1856 to Jan'y /,
1866. Ten years. 756,
Deduct for removals from other
burying grounds. ................153,
Deduct for those whose residence
was not in the city $50,
Total. $40,
Number of interments in the catholic GENE
tary who were residents of the city,. 24l,
Total number of deaths in the city in 10
years. # 761,
Adults 29S Children AS.
Assuming that the population of the city has
averaged 1000, which l presume is not far from
the true number, it will be seen that the average
annual mortality has been but q small fraction
over one percent.
Very Respectfully,

ABOUT ADvERTsING.-Thosew who advertise in
public papers, says an exchange, are the prop
persons tor the people to patronne. They are
not afraid to announce what they have for sale,
the kind and quality of the goods they have on
hand, their charges and varieties of stock, and
the prices at which they are prepared to dispose
OF it. Nor are they reluctant to pay the printer
the price of an advertisement which calls atten-
ton to their place of business, and the advantag
ss Of dealing with them. We always find the ad-
vertiser to be a liberal man. He takes something
more than a one sided view of business matters
He is honest in his dealings with his customers
He open-hearted and fair in all his transactions,
and he is man that can be trusted in everything.
Il always pays a business man to advertise, no
matter what his calling may be, and be knows it !;
hence be cal afford to be liberal and sell cheap.
In our large cities the who has the largest
patronage and does the most business is the one
who advertises extensively, and the people gener-
ally avoid all other establishments and 60 to his.
Many a merchant and dealer let slip a large for
tune for OF the necessary lIberality in expen-
ding the amount OF money it requires 10 bring his
good, wares and merchandise properly to the no.
