May 8, 1866.
We shall meet but we shall miss him
There will be one absent form
One that oft to glory led us
through the deadly battle storm
IT'S but three short years we number
Since our hearts were beating high,
But aAas In ceaseless slumber;
All our hopes with Jackson lie.
We shall meet but we shall miss him
There will be one dreary void
For the hopes we that round him clustered
Are for evcrmore destroyed. ~
At our fresides sad and lonely, .E
Often will the bosom swell &.
AS we listen to the story
How our noble Chieftain fell
How he bravely bore our banner, t@
through the fiercest Of the fight,

In the cause of Truth and Right. '..,
We shall meet but we shall miss him,
We shall for our loved ones weep, AN%,,
Aswe bend in silent sorrow, -
Ger the grave where Stonewall sleeps,
True, they tell us wreaths Of glory
Eyermorc will deck his brow yry
But this soothes the anguish only
Sweeping DER our heart strings now ~ 4,
And though Fame, in future ages
May enshrine him where he fell,
No surcease our heart assuages,
For his fall became our knell
We shall meet but we shall miss him,
Ever miss our fallen brave:
While we grieve in mourful silence,
O'erthe cause he died to save.

Important to Farmers.

Important to Farmers.
Decision ofhe Commissioner Of Inter-

The following decisions have re-

or of Internal Revenue at Washington.
They are important to farmers, in SO
far as they untangle some of the knot
ty points of law
|. Farmers will not be required to
make return of produce consumed in
their own immediate families.
2. The farmers profits from sales of
live stock are to be found by deduct
ing from the gross receipts for animals
sold, the purchase money paid for the
same. If animals have been lost dur
ing the year by death or robbery - the
purchase money paid for such an it'll
may be deducted from the gro So in
come of the farm.
8. No deduction can be made " the
farmer for the value of service rem
dered by his minor children, W. ,other
he actually pays for such servic, vs., or
not. If his adult children wo rk for
him and receive compensation for their
labor, they are to be regarded as 9th
er hired laborers in determinin ghis
income.
d. Money paid for labor, e1 ;oept
such as is used or employedin do mes
tic service, or the production of art icies
consumed in the family of tho pro
ducer, may be deducted.

labor. If house servants are empl, ~
cd portion of the time in product "
labor, such as making of butter al II
cheese for sale, proportional 4
amount Of the wages paid them ma
be deducted.
Expenses for ditcbing and clearing
new land are plainly expenses forper-
manont improvements, and not deduc-
table.
Z. The whole amount expended for
fertilizers applied during the year to
the farmers lands may be deducted,
but no deduction is allowed for fer
tilizers produced on the farm. The
cost of seed purchased for sowing and
planting may be deducted.
8. If persona sells timber standing
the profits are to be ascertaincd by es-
timating the value of the land after
the removal of the timber, and from
the sum thus obtained deducting the
estimated value of the land on the lst
day of January, 1852, or on the day
of purchase, if purchased since that
date. ,4ts.,
Where no repairs have been made
by the tax payer upon any building
owned by him during the preceding
five years, nothing can be deducted
for repairs made during the year for
which his income is estimated.
10. A farmer should make return
of all his produce sold within year,
but mere executory contract for a
sale is not sale delivery, either ac-
tual or constructive is essential. The
criterion by which to Judge whethera
sale is complete on not is to, determine
whether the vendor still retains in that
character right over the property
if the property were lost or destroyed,
upon which of the parties, in the abb
sence of any other relation between
them than that of the vendor and ven-
dee, would the loss fall.

The New York NeDs, of Wednesday,
says: "The reyorts of the harvest show
that the States generally have been
bounLiiully blcst. In the Northwest the
grain harvest has never been excelled,
while in the South enough has been
gathered for home consumption and
leave n margin for expectation. Ar.
kansas ard Alabama are tho only States
where the returns have not reimbursed
the labor bestowed upon the fields.
Hailstorms during the present month
have inflicted some injuries upon the
standing grain and some tobacco plants,
but the damage has not been sufficient
to materially alter the general result.
\ general summing up shows that the
overHowing g,anraies of onr farmers
will furnish cheap breadstuffs to our own
consumers, and help to feed the whole
world" 81
Dr. Chipler, Medical Superintendent
OF the Eastern Lunatic Asylum of Ken
tucky,.in late report, says:
Society is daily becoming more arti.
ficial, and new wants more imperative.
Mems aspirations are assuming u more
impracticable character, and sad disap.

tains the conclusions derived from the
brief telegraphic abstract that appeared IN
our issue of yesterday. A more cold
bIooded, mendacious and meanly yindlc-
tive harangue was not uttered during the
war either by Southern rebels or their
Northern sympathizers. Rejoicing IN the
assassination of Abraham Lincoln, assert
ing outrageous caluTnnies against the de-
ceased Governor of Ohio, and with vile IN
gratitude gloating over the sufferings OF
the Chief Magistrate of Indiana, to whose
exertions he ows his life, the hoary- headed
miscreant is still not satisfied. He charac-
terizes the patriotic soldiers as aliens ana
hirelings, as tools in the hands of tyrants;
seeks to arouse sectional jeaIousies, and, IN
short, to do all in his power to make the
people at large as skeptical in regard TO
the possibility of human virtue as himself.
In the Democratic party alone can he find
material for sympathy. Its policy and
aims gladden. his heart, and for it he is
willing to work. In its ranks he viii find
abundant opportunity for the exercise of
his very peculiar talents. The man and

Canting HypOcrites.

q +
1t is amusing to notice how the Cop
ferhead papers all over the State are
trying to court favor with soldiers. A
short time ago many that are now
publishing hypocritical laudations of
that class of men were wont to heap
upon those who went forth to defend
their countrys cause, all manner of
abuse. Now that the war is over,
these cowardly skunks, and draft
sneaks, are loud in their professions
of love for the war worn veterans.
Can any soldier believe these hypor
critical professions? At the lime sol
diers needed aid and sympathy, many
of these canting hypocrites were en-
gagged in organizing such treaso nable
societies as the Knights of the Golden
Circle. At the time the soldiers need
ed help, these men cried " not another
man nor another dollar for the sup
port of an unholy war. When the
Government called for more men,
they discouraged enlistments and used
all efforts in their power to prevent an
increase in the army, thereby hoping
to secure the success of the rebel
cause. Many Of them counseled de-
sertion, and not a few-who to-day
might have been living but for such
advisers sleep in a deserters grave.
Nor did the mischief stop there. The
reasonable publications, and secret
advice of that class of traitors, led
others to commit foul murders En-
rolling officers were shot down while
in the discharge of their duties, or
forced to desist in order to save life.
After all these things have occurred,
the remembrance of which is still
fresh in the minds Of all, how can any
soldier, who regards his honor, for one
moment believe these canting hypo-
critics? In Spencer County the cop
perheads have nominated some sol
diers for the county offices, but it is
not for the love they bear the brave
boys, but to secure their influence in
wiping out a foul stain-thatsuch men
as DAN VOORHEES,, VALANDIGHAM,
Dom & Co., added to an already cor
rupt party, the leading spirits Of
which, during the whole course of the
war, sympathized with the rebellion.
The secret of the preference of sol
diers for Office by the copperheads,
lies in the fact that without such assis-
lance to wipe out the damning record
of the past, they cannot hope for sue
cess. There are thousands Of these
men, who are loud in the praise of
Federal soldiers, now that the
war is over, that would never
support them but for the politi-
cal capital they expect to make by
such course. They would a thousand
times rather support the meanest and
most violent rebel that ever bore arms
against the Government that gave him
liberty. @ -

Confederate Democracy.

On our second page we give a sam
pie of Confederate Democracy in In.
diana as manifested in the recent
speech of the traitor MILLIGAN, at
Blufton. We herewith copy an article.
from the Louisville Journal, show
ing up 1.-THE character of the Confed-
crate Democracy of Kentucky as
manifested throughout the first of
May Convention in that State, and
the columns of the Louisville Courier.
The political contest in Kentucky is
not our fight. We are only interested
in it as the organs of the Confederates
in this State take sides and demon
strate the identity of the Den-
gocracyof Indiana, with what the Lon-.
isville Journal calls the rebel party of
10 Kentucky We have repeatedly called
attention to the fact that the Evans
vile Courier keeps the name of Judge
rs ,.DUVAL, standing at the head Of its
. columns, and in IA recent letter the
To5 editor of that papenaffirms that eyery-
1 Z body in Henderson County is for Dg-
VAL, statements as destitute Of truth
as are most of his assertions; yet
showing, Enthusiastically, that he in
tends identifying the Democracy Of
Vanderburgh County with the seces-
sion ind rebel element of Kentucky,
