RAIN.

Since our last issue, there has been falls of rain
in every section of the County from which we have
any information. In the immediate vicinity of
Yorkvile, the quantity has been unusal, and con-
siderable damage has been done to the crops and
fences on low-lands, as in some instances both were
swept away. The rains however, have come in
time to contribute materially to the making Of the
young corn on the up-lands and will prove of ben
eft to the old corn At the present writing,
"wednesday morning) rain is threatened again.

OVATION TO GEN. MCCLELLAN.

The admirers of Gen. George B.
Mcclellan assembled last evening in the
of Masonic Hall, in Thir-
teenth street, where they formed pro-
cession, and marched to the Fifth Ave
nue. Hotel. The various Mcclellan Lee
gion organizations were early on the
ground, few of which were supplied
with muslin banners and torches There
was considerable confusion in getting
the line formed, and it was half-past
eight o'clock before its head turned into
Fourth avenue. Judging from the
marching, there were great number of
persons in the line of procession, who
never carried musket. Most Of those
who had served in the army were at the
head of the column. A section of po-
lice headed the procession, followed by
a solitary horseman, whose name could
not be ascertained. Several officers of
the Mcclellan Legion were in barouches,
and in their rear followed eight or nine
Zouaves, who were repeatedly told by
one of the officers to spread themselves
out, so as to take up the entire width of
the street. The gentleman on horse

A half century hence the old men will

down life to secure to the nation as a
civilian the fruits of the victories he had
won as soldier. The young man who

THE MoNIToR-OUR MISSION.

In every department of lie this fact
is most patent, that it is no less true Of
Societies and organizations, than Of in
dividuals, that each has u mission TO
perform in the world.
Every person is by virtue Of their re-
lations to society force and power in
that society for good or for evil.
What is true of a society, of an indi-
vidual, is emphatically true of the news
paper press. 1t is the guardian of pub
lie and private interests, it is the mould
er of public sentiment, if not of indivi-
dual action, it is the controller of
thought, and, in its influence, either
blesses the family OF curses it, as it di-
reefs thoughts in the channels of truth
and virtue orof loose views of right and
wrong.
With such view of our mission, and
the influence of the press upon the old
and the young, at home and in society
as faithful MONITOR we are aiming,
to so exert our moral forces, as to find
n welcome at every hearthstone, in
every family.
In our mission as daily teacher we
hope to do good to lift up the curtains
OF darkness and suffer the light of the
distinctive features of progressive in
telligence to enter, and bless even the
the poorest and humblest of our read
ers.
Autumn is upon us with lengthed
evenings, winter will soon follow, and
then, rs tho family shall cluster about
the fire and the table, what more pleas
ant, what more desirable. with good
books than the evening newspaper :?
1t will pay well to have its regular Wis
its pay in its moral influence, pay in
its teaching, pay in its amusement, pay
as it becomes MONITOR of admonition
and the guide of right principles.
Since we started this enterprise we
never for moment have been allowed
to question the propriety OF our course.
Our friends have done nobly with us,
and we shall still aim to make our mis-
sion felt as we go to the family. Thus
as family paper it becomes to all our
business men one of the best of adver-
Using mediums.

back frequently halted the procession
for some reason only known to himself.
Along Broadway, half OF the sidewalks
were occupied by persons who looked
on in silence. There were no transpar-
encies or illuminated buildings along
the route of procession to light the Gen
erals admirers ON their way to the no.
tel. Passing the residence Of one Of
the ex-Mayors, whose stoop was thanked
by lamps, there was feeble cheer from
the Zouaves, who imagined there was
an unusual display of gaslight. At the
Manhattan Club few of the members
sauntered to the windows, but there
was no demonstration, no illumination
no banners waving in the breeze bui
the Zouaves gave the Club severa
cheers. The more aristocratic member
of the Union Club needed more excite
ment to draw them to the windows
Arriving Mt the hotel, the processio3
halted to await the appearance of tn
General. At this time there wereprot
ably 10000 persons in front of the he
tel, wild with enthusiasm. Calcium.
lights were located on the various cor
ners, which Illuminated the entir8
square. General McClellan's appear
ance was greeted with deafening cheers,
and it was several moments before the
crowd could be quieted, at which time
Gen. J. Hobart Ward, in introducing
Gen Mcclellan, said:
SOLDIERS AND FELLOW CITIZENS Pei
nit me to introduce to you Gen. George
B. Mcclellan. the great Commander Of
the Army of the Potomac. Cheers.
Gen Mcclellan responded as follows:
I know, my friends, you will not ex-
pect speech from me; am sure you
will be content with the expression of
my most sincere and heartfelt thanks
for this kind and cordial welcome on
my return home-more, thousand
times, than had any right to expect
You will, 1 know, excuse me from max
ing any speech. CHEERS.
1t was some time before the crowd
would make way for the procession, and
even then it made very slow progress.
While passing they gave three cheers
for the hero of the Antietam, and three
cheers for Seymour. Seymour's name
was received with many misses, which
occasioned considerable merriment. In
the procession were various ward or
carnations belonging to the Mcclellan
Legion, few fire zouaves, a mock
curtle engine, to represent Peterson
Engine, No. 81, which used to be the
terror of the Bowery, that is the men
who used to run before it, and COM

GONE Years since, while residing
~ in the city of Providence, we heard much
said in praise of Perry Davis Pain Killer We
listened incredulously to these testimonials
Well, health failing, as last resort, the doctors
sent US to Minnesota. The winter was intensely
cold, and a terrible form of Neuralgia prevailed
among the settlers. and we fell into the grasp of
the disease, and day and night for weeks endur-
ed untold agony. Many remedies were tried
without avail. One day, however, stalwart
frontiersman entered the room, bearing in his
hand vial partly filled with reddish liquid.
1t was some of the PAIN KILLER. He had
bought it in California three years before, and
had kept it with misery care until then. APP
plying it externally and internally gave immedi-
ate relief Since then we have recommended il
successfully in cases that have baf1ed the best
medical skill and, when we see persons reject
this remedy, we recall our own experience, and
think that the time may come when pain, incur
able by other agents, may teach them the value
of this great discovery Monthly.
