Comes Home Alive.
From tho Adrian, Mich, Expositor.

from tho Adrian, Mich, Expositor.
A valued correspondent sends US the facts
in case Of identity which has few parel-
lcls. Four days after the rebels fred on
Fort Sumter. n son of Mrs. Duncan, of
Mecca, O., enlisted for the war. He joined
Western regiment, and after being in seve-
raj battles. was reported killed at the battle
of Stone River. His body was brought
home and inferred. Afterwards intelligence
was brought to the parents by returned
Union prisoners that that their lost son
was not dead, but in rebel prison in Geor-
gia. Other prisoners returning from there
last spring brought the sad news of his
death to the sorely distressed family. When
the war closed an opportunity was offered
to penetrate the rebel lines. Mr. Duncan
sent down and had his son brought home
again and buried. Having had him buried
twice, as was supposed, 1t was natural that
they should be reconciled to their loss but
about month ago their SON Bob, in spite
of his wounds, and deaths, and funerals,
:. came marching home" The feelings of
the parents can more easily be imagined
than described. The mother was standing
on the verandah and saw him approaching
in his suit of army blue, but could not be-
lieve him to be her son, although the resem-
blance was striking. She was only con-
WINGED when he came up and grasped her
by the hand and called her mother. Only
mothers who mourn the loss of dear ones
slaughtered by rebel hands may ever have
realizing sense Of the overwhelming emo
tions of that mothers heart. Two sons Of
other mothers lie buried on the hill in Mr..
Duncans orchard, while their own son.
whom they mourned as dead, is spared to
them to cheer their declining years and dis
sipate their sadness which his supposed
death produced.

SAaAcIrY OF THE MuLE.-An incident &C.
Cured on the 1st inst, illustrating the fact
that mules are not only the most sagacious
of all four-legged animals, but they some
times do things on purely scientific princi-
Piles. A drove Of two hundred Of these
large-minded beasts were brought to the
Illinois shore opposite the city, and it was
concerted that the best way to get them
across was to start them on the ice and let
them walk over. As soon as they reached
the ice, instinct taught them that they had
embarked on a dangerous journey; instant
". the Oldest mule in the drove, one, too,
that had never been in q circus, and had no
education, took the lead. and one at time
the whole two hundred g. fell in " and fol-
lowed their leader in single file, with safe
distances between, and thus stretching them
selves into long line, they crossed the
river. The circumstance was witnessed by
a number Of gentlemen, who were impressed
with the wonderful illustration Of mule sa-
gaeity.-St. LOUIS RspGdkca3.

SUPPORT AND EDUCATION OF THE FREEDMEN.
The Sd section of the bill authorizes a
general, unlimited amount Of support to the
destitute and suffering refugees and freed
men. and their wives and children. Sue
ceeding sections make provision for the rent
or purchase of landed estates for freedmen,
and for the erection for their benefit, of
suitable buildings for asylums and schools,
the expenses to be betrayed from the treas
ury of the whole people. The Congress Of
the United States has never heretofore
thought itself competent to establish any
such laws beyond the District Of Columbia.
except for the benefit of our disabled SOL
diers and sailors. 1t has never founded
schools for any class of our own people. not
even for the orphans of those who have
fallen in defence of the Union, but has left
the care of their education to the much more
competent and efficient control of the States,
Of communities of private associations, and
of individuals. 1t has never deemed itself
authorized to expend the public money for
the purchase Of houses for the thousands,
not to say millions, of the white race who
are honestly toiling from day to day for their
subsistence 4 system for the support Of
INDECENT persons in the United States was
never contemplated by the authors Of the
Constitution. nor can any good reason be
advanced why. as q permanent establish
ment it should be founded for one class or
color Of our people more than for another.
Pending the war, many refugees and freed
men received support from the Government,
but il was never intended that they should
henceforth be fed. clothed, educated, and
sheltered By the United States. The idea
on which the slaves were assisted to free
dom was that on becoming free they would
be self-sustaining population. Any legis
laton that shall imply that they are not ex-
pected to attain self-sustaining condition
must have tendency injurious alike to
their character and their prosperity.

THE NOMINEE.
From the North Iowa Times }

We attended ths West uniO"
Convention. The MeGrcgor Band,
the best in the State went along and
enlivened the trip by playing at
Monona, Luana, Postville. and on
the route. At West Union the
Band was most cordially received at
the Gore or U. S. } House. During
the proceedings of the Convention
national airs were played at inter-
walls and the audience were delight
ed. There were many incidents it
would please us to notice, but the
~r~~~ allow to the able speech OF
Mr.. Noble and to the proceedings
of the meeting Grives us from the

issue. NOBLE requires no introduce

is man Of unqucstioned integrity,
high moral principles, and is pos
sessed Of the highest legal attain
ments of any man in the State. He
could, time and again, have rcceiv-
ed the nomination for Congress or
any nthnr office in the rift of the
republican party in this district,
but has uniformly refused them,
and he has only entered the contest
at the present time, because he
earnestly believed it TO BE HIS DUTY

vote pledged themselves and their
people to pay the federal debt and
