THE Sabbath School in the Ecklebery
School District, about one mile west of
Zaleski, has recently been re-organized'
and is now in prosperous condition far
better than heretofore. FRANK SERRELLs
has been chosen Superintendent, and he
labors nobly and ea nestly for the little
band he has in charge, We hope that he
may receive encouraging words from every
parent in the district, and that his labor
may not be in vain. We learn that the
School is largely attended since its re-

Who Let the Sick Soldiers Perish.

Who Let the SICK SOLDIERS forlSD'
THE truth is coming out at last;
Grant, the great military humbug
of the 10Th century, is now being
shown up, in all his hidoous inhu,
manity, horrid moral deformity, and
questionable courage. lie dared
not fight the enemy except at the
odds of three to one. With $4,000
men, against Lee with $4,000, he
wrote Butlcr:-"Scnt no more men
in exchange for our sick prisoners
in the encmy's hands. Every man
released becomes an active soldier
against us. If we commence a sys-
tenn of exchange we shall have to
fight on till the whole South is eX-i
terminated. 1t is hard on our men
in Southern prisons, but it is hu-
manity to those left in our ranks to
fight our battles"
Now we arc getting at the facts.
The old one-eyed wretch at Wash
ington who quarreled with his su.
perior officer is "telling on him
Is Grant a coward, as we'll as q mill
itary charlatan, and inhuman butch
err? He evidently dared not meet
Lee with less than three times his
force. Was it that he feared Lees
superior gencralship, or did lac
donLt h;s own nerve ? Grant lost
six mon to Lees one man. Tho
records show the slaughter of H.
600 men under Grant, against ~
900 men under Lee. SO much for
generalship. Was the military
talent of Grant shown in this pile
of mangled- humanity? Was it
anything short Of brutality of the
lowest kind to waste human life to
this degree and accompIish-whatF
The death of one of Lees soldiers
by the sacrifice of six Of his own
Does the historian OF Grant call
this ability? talent2 military sci
ence
Where is the sentiment which fills
the soul of every true soldier and
makes his heart ache ut tho terrible
havoc of war? Napoleon wept on
the plains Of Austerlitz at the sight
of vast heaps Of bis brave comrades,
slain in that conflict. Did any NOR
tai man ever hear Grant utter re-
gret at the cost of saving himself
from ignominious defeat? Never.
He gave six for one, as o dolt plays
checkers.
Soldiers of the northern army,
will you vote for tho man who was
too great coward to send South
southern prisoners, that you, sick
and dying as you were at Anderson
vile, might come homo to your
friends? Will you vote fora gen
eral without thoeommonest instincts
of humanityP Will you subscribe
to the opining that the military
commander who avoided battles
unless he was six times as strong in
force as his enemy, is soldier of
talent2 Will you vote for such
soldier, or such q man, as President
of the United States.-N. Y. Day

the 4th, which came near proving fatal to-
the life of boy named Rutherford who
resides in Columbia Township, in Meigs

sons were engaged in the row. They went
to the saloon, as we were informed, in u
state Of intozication. and, being denied
admittance, they broke the door q I'd viii"
dows open and entered. Shortly after they
had entered the Saloon fivC or six boys,
(all strangers in the town, and two orr
three of whom are brothers named Ruther-
ford) vent in to enquire about the'r
horses which they had left there short
time before, when those who hal forcibly
entered commenced throwing stones, brick
bats, striking with brass knuckles, shoot
ing with revolvers, using knivcs, &c, ard
one of the boys was dangerously
stabbed in the back and side. His writ
was also severely cut Three Of the Ot er
boys were badly cut and bruised about
their faces aud heads. Young Rutherford,
who was so dangerously stabbed, had bis
wounds dressed by DR.. A,W. Japios, as

where he remained four or five hours, when
he was taken to the house of Mr. Chap
