OUR editorial cotemporaries OF the
Tribune are largely endowed with the
faculty Of misslatement. therefore it
is not TO be wondered that when they
read the INST Of the members OF a
company oil volunteer militia that
left this place in September. 1862.
for the defence OF the State, they fell
into the nisstatement that tine list
comprised the military record of the
editor of the SeHtineL and Republican,
The editors that mistake tine muster
roll OF company I0r the record OF
an individual SO dier. need to have
then discriminating powers sharpen
ed, Perhaps it was the rapid pro-
motion from high private TO 9Th cor
poral, in ten DAYS, that caused the
editors to make the misstatement. for
by sucn rapid strides IN the direction
OF promotion it is not hard to real
lze that the editor of the Sentinel
would have reached a position away
beyond that Of a Sergeant, or Major,
positions reached by the editors of
the Tribune, provided he had done
personal service for a period of three
years, or during the war. The glo-
rious military record Of the editors
of the Tribune should be extolled to
the skies, FOR 1t embraced both sides
OF the issne, and gives them the op-
portunity to sing Good Lord. good
Devil, at one and the same time 1;
but, numerically considered, they are
still behind with their record. Ii was
by superior numbers that the Rebel
hon was put down, and when that
record l. taken to measure a man S
service, oar record is a longer one
than that Of the brilliant editors of
the fTib1ae, for the Editor Of The Sen
t'net supplemented has personal ser
vice by two stalgart substitutes. and
as lar as the record III our possession
goes, their service was of as much
account 10 the country as the vaiori-
Gus deeds of the editors of the Tri
60ne. and then when the number of
men are considered, we are still one
ahead. As the case now stands. nu-
merically considered, the numbers
are On our side; our side pr sserts )
soldiers, and the side of the Tribune
presents only > soldiers.

The friends Of John Welsh, OF
Philadelphia. sent a petition to the
Legislature asking that 1Ir Welsh be
elected United States Senator for this
Commonwealth. The night of peti-
ton Is considered to be Of great i'm
portance from an American stand
point, and yet there were quite a
number Of members in the Legisla
ture who have not found that out,
and of course they made captious
opposition to the Welsh petition be

a FRENCH peasant saw in the
river a floating egg. He thought he
could catch it with his hand; but in
the attempt he fell into the water
and the egg 'scaped him. The water
Was deep. and he could not swim. La
terror he believed that God was thus
Furnishing his groediness. To pro
pitiate his fate he vowed that if be
escaped he would never eat another
egg. Instantly q branch Of a tree
presented Itself to him, by means of
which he gained the banks of the
stream Shaking himself, he said, Il
