A Strange History,

The type which has faithfully served
TIE HERALD for many years paSt-wil-
ling servantsto nimble tingers-are with
this issue set aside for new set. They
have lived their life of usefulness and
have grown old and somewhat dim in
service. We do not part with them
without a feeling of regret For nearly
score of years, like company of
trained soldiers, their hosts have been
martialed for the battle of Progress.
Every week the company thousands
strong have done duty for the people
fought their fights, sometimes suffered
defeats, and gave the news from the
" front" They have been courageous
and loyal. When the grim form of Sd
oession arose, they resisted it with ringA
ing words of patriotism, and denounced
disunion. When Secession would not
down. they rang with words of war
the Union husband shall be preserved. y
They repeated Lincoln's call for three
hundred thousand moren They fought
with the soldiers, exulted in victory and
wept with defeat. They proclaimed
Peace at last, and with its coming, COW
cred its face in black and scattered
words of sorrow for the death of Lin
ooln. They huzzaed when Grant was
elected, predicted future which had q
dignity in the light of prophecy fulfilled,
not then believed. Later, when the f.
nances of the nation absorbed the atten-
ton of the nation, our little types have
spoken in no uncertain tones for honest
money, and against the specious sophis-
tries of Greenbackism. AS they grew
old and rheumatic their tone was hardly
as cheerful, and they fluctuated little
from previous opinions, but in the light
of their grand history their little slips
of later years are easily forgiven.
They have followed the strange muta-
tons of history for twenty years. And
what changes have occurred! We trust
the new ones may not see the like. But
we sincerely trust, though we scarcely
believe, they will live a life of as much
usefulness.
The types! As one looks at these bits
of metal the reflection naturally arises
that without them the progress of the
age would be involved in darkness In
stead of universal enlightenment, there
would be universal ignorance. They
are little things, but if you knew how to
arrange them rightly, eternal fame would
! be yours! If there are sermons in stones,
and songs in running brooks, there are
thoughts in type which no human mind
has yet revealed. There are epics great
er than Homer's, dramas greater than
those of Shakespeare, and speech be-
yond the power of mans invention!
These types have ministered to the
feast of learning, and appropriately,
perhaps, they are now made into pi-as
desert, so to speak, to finish the feast.
While seeming almost human having
led an intellectual and moral life, they
have no heaven of reward promised fol
righteous life, but are literally thrown
into Hell. > in the technical language
of the trade-a hell of oblivion we trust,
not OF punishment

At Anteitani.

If any one can read the following
without thrill, or fail to feel genuine
respect for the gallant General Bragg,
now a Congressman from this state, and
the brave Sixth Wisconsin, in that day
of death at Anteitam, then that person
is not of ordinary flesh and blood. 1t is
from the pen of Gen. John Gibbon, and
is an extract from letter of his recently
written:
Here by this barn is where Gen. Hook
er had his headquarters on the night of
the 10th. There, on that knoll beyond.
is where the brigade spent the night
crowded en- masse by divisions. Along
this ridge, running directly towards me.
the brigade moved when / received the
order direct from Gen. Hooker to report
to him with the brigade for service at
the front. The gallant old brigade
moved off in column of regiments closed
en- masse Just at the dawn of day, and
right there, not two hundred yards from
where | stand, is the very spot where
one of the first shells, attracted by our
AAONtlhtHl, SlIitth duu DuTSb III The
crowded ranks of the Sixth Wisconsin,
killing and wounding twenty-seven of
its members. Even the eighteen years
which have elapsed have failed to oblit-
crate the recollection of the thrill of hor-
ror with which witnessed the sight nor
the apprehension | felt lest the shock
should scatter the regiment like q flock
of frightened sheep. | had not yet
learned all the powers of discipline in
that brigade, ror what the extent of the
tests it could successfully pass through.
As the shell burst, scattering dead and
wounded all around the place where it
struck, tremor seemed to pass through
the regiment, but the voice of the lieu
tenant colonel at its head Bragg rang
out loud and clear, " steady, Sixth; close
up, and stepping over the quivering
bodies of their dead and wounded com
rades, the regiment moved to the front
and soon passed the spot where now
stand, in solid column, towards that IA
tai corn field where SO many others Of
the members of the brigade fell.

In the estimate of 148 Republicans,
Mr.. Mcpherson counts on one from New
Hampshire yet to be elected TO succeed
Farr, Republican, deceased, although
the district is very close and the result
is somewhat doubtful He says, how
ever, that the Republicans need not rely
on the 148 votes thus figured up, which
are only one more than quorum, and
three majority over all, because at least
five of the eight Greenbackers are GER
tain to vote with the Republicans in
organizing the House, and on ordinary
political questions. These five are Smith,
of Brooklyn, who has proclaimed him
self Republican, and Ford, Rice, Bur-
roughs and Haseltine, of Missouri. Me-
Pherson says the list is now well de-
fined, and he is confident that the fore
going estimate will be found correct.
