old Sherman battery at the battle of Shiloh,
aud saved Grants army from destruction.-
For his gallantry in that battle he was pros
moted to the rank of Msjor General, and fell
soon after at the head of his division at the
battle of Perryville. The second son, Gen.
james Barbour Terrill, fell while leading
his Confederate brigade in q charge at Cold
Harbor. His youngest son, Phillip Mallory
TeIrill, who was soldier in Rosser's Confed-
crate Cavalry, was killed in one of the battles
in the Shenandoah Valley in 1864. The loss
of his three gallant boys broke the spirit Of
the father, and i, was easy to perceive that
his heart was buried in the grave of his chill
dren. His vigorous constitution yielded to
accumulated troubles which weighed so heav-
lily upon him, and at last retiring from his
profession, he sought rest in tho family of his
only daughter, who affectionately nursed him
in his dying hours, and thus peacefully he
pussed away in the 7TIth year Of his age.

Oh! if my love offended me,

To show her woald master her.
I'd whip her with feather.
Ifthen she. like anaughty girl.
Would tyranny declare it,
I'd give my pet cross of pearl,
And make her always bear it.
If still she tried to sulk and sigh.
And threw away my pusies,
I'd catch riiy darling ON the sly
And smother her with roses.
And if she dared her lips to pout,
Like many pert young misses,
I'd wind my arm her waist about
And punish her with kisses.

Rather All interesting item occurred
during the Stanford road trial, when
lawyer Ross, Of Princeton, who was
counsel for the defendants, insinuated
that the rosy hue Of county attorney

finally Mr.. Ross admitted that he had
forgotten for the moment that he was

Something that all honest men de-

who gloats, lives and fattens by mis-.

Under the heading Of Soon gressional
Candidates. the Monticello Times
has this to say: : : :
&c. A. Gilman, of St. Cloud, has in
formed the editor of the Brainered
Tribune that he is not in the field for
the Congressional nomination. And
thus the candidates are rapidly mar
rowing down in numbers and will con-
time 20 do SO until two are left, viz:
Washburn and Stewart. OF these the
Times prefers the former, on the
grounds, lst, Of capability, and End, Of
availa bility. We share the opinion
which is entertained by many Of DR..
Stewards warm personal friends, that
while he is whole.soulod, big hearted
jolly good fellow, he is not man Of
sufficient mental calibre to worthily
represent this district in congress. Add
to this the fact that he ran four thous-
and votes behind his ticket two years
ago and that his vote on the silver bill
has in all probability rendered him a
weaker candidate than before, and we
have abundant reasons for seeking a
new standard bearer. The republicans
of this district do not want a second
rate man for their representative in
congress for the next two years, nor
do they want a candidate Of whose
election there can be any room for
doubt. Mr.. Washburn, if nominated,
will poll more than the strength of his
party and his nomination will not only
be equivalent to an election but will
strengthen the whole republican tick.
ct. In the matter Of fitness for The
position we regard him as superior tc
d.. Stewart, and this point we believe
is generally conceded. In addition
his reputation and record are such as
to warrant the anticipation that i
elected he will make one of that moi
too numerous class Of representative!
whose influence is constantly felt il
behalf of reform and honest govern
ment. As between Dr.. Stewart ane
MIR. Washburn, therefore, we have ne
hesitation in expressing our decided
preference for the latter.''
