The l'Jih is mnch reduced only present about 150 men. We are ali auiiing fur something to turn up." QtT We stated, last weeK, that Col. Dridg land had presented a splendid horse to Gen. Sol.

We notice the Indianapolij Journal, has fallen into the same error we did, in its notice of this pleasant incident. 'The Journal is also in error in its notice of the death of Gen.

Ho was in Ohio, "mailing speeches against the traitor Vallandigbaui, while General Meredith is absent from his post of duty iu the army," says the family organ.

Miller' Frcetlmiiirs Lc ctm c 1 (etc Aid Commission. Hi As announced the meeting ofetke Freedmau's Aid Commission on Tuesday evenio g, was addressed by Rev. J. V. 11. Miller. The first leadmg thcught wai will not God, thojudgoot all tho earth, do right? By several pertinent Scripture quotations, aided by historic facts, the speaker answered the question affirmatively. Go J will rigLt the wrongs of both men and nations, among which wrongs is the bondage of millions of human beings. God is now ritrhtinir a sreat national wrong; llo is freeing an oppressed people. This point was dwelt upon at length, showing that itwas God immediately -and Government mediately that was doing tne great work. 1 he Government held back a year and a half, and then began to work in God's hands. Touching the characteristics of these freedmen, be said they were greatly desirous of learning, many ollerings to give half of their small incomes for books and teachers for their childicn; they wero docile learning readily; they were obedicot; they are religiously inclined, having great trust in God and his overruling Providence; are degraded to a condition that unfits them to give us any fair indication of what they may do and be; they love freedom love it earnestly partisan falsehoods to the contrary notwithstanding This point was illustrated: A mulatto made his escapa into our liucs, and was questioned by cur soldiers: . 1st. Your master whipped ycu, I suppose? "No; he never whipped me in all my life." 21. I suppose be nearly starved you? "No; always plenty to eat." 3d. Clothed you miserably? No; always well clothed." ' Then yoa are a gn at fool for leaving such a master, and such a home. "Very well, gentlemen; my leaving has made a vacant place. It any one of you chooses, ho can go and fill if," In the same nanaer nearly all talk. They want freedom The "heart longs, pants for it. These, peopla are God's poor, and must be helped; they appeal to us to Christians and patriots every where. Will we resoond? respond now? resnond liberallv? tk. rJni;.- .iti ' fmV...c .-'l which was liberally given. It was announced that an Agent had been appoiuted to canvass Indiana under the auspices of the Society iiaianoplu Journal, Sept 17. Many a brava Ohio soldier who would have voted against Vallndiham in a few weeks, had he lived, has within the last few days been laid low .by rebel ballets, and sleeps oa the Georgia border. They have died to 'put down the rebellion and save the country. Will" the example they have ' set their friends at home be lost? For every loyal roter who has been slain, will not a score rise to fill his place at home? Ohio men cannot vote for traitors while their friends are fighting traitors ia the South. ctoa, 23tn

A Little Overweighted. Those wbo visit the sick soldiers and do good in the hospitals, occasionally get a g.'eam of fun among all the sad scenes, Tor any waa; who has been to tho war seldom loses bis humor, thoogb be may have lost U else save tLat and honor. Witness a sketch from life: C . good soul, after taking ad the little comfort he could afford to give to the wounded solJitrs; went into the Hospitals for the fortienth time the other day, with Lis in!r of several papers of cut

chewW "tobacco solace for the wounded, i as he called it; He came to one bed, where , thesoliier; "GotacoIdT" "i e-, com ieaa. Vl ..r,-?

Or.e through my left Lad that fell out. And I tell you what, frieud, witlr all this lead in me. I feel, generally speaking, a little heavy all over." A Shrewd Orderly. After the first Michigan bad left the main column, in the lite advance on the RapiJan, Gencrff Kilpatrick desired to communicate with it. Maior Cook, chief of staff, with ati orderly, started directly across the couc- ; try to uuiver the message, under tfce sup position tLat the regiment had met with no opposition, and was quietly ensconced at Stevensburg. After going about four miles, a suspicious looking picket was preceived, when the orderly, who had on a light colored cap, advanced and asked if they were "Hood's (rebel) men," lo which the picket replied, "No, we are Robinson's." The orderly, not diecoocerted in the least, said, 'Wtrll, we arc all ordered in the Yankees aro in force just over yonder, and advanc- ' i::g." Tho reserve ol this picket was in ' sight, and seeing the lieutenant in command ' a J vancing - lue orderly rntireu. find unon ! a J vancing,' the orderly retued, and it was not nn'il they had got out of the sight of the picket that they deemed it prudent to run their horses. The same orderly was captured in Culpepper, but made the rebels believe that he was "one of them,'' and escaped. Latost War News: 'Colonel Grose not Killed. Tho Cincinnati Gazette, Indianapolis, papers, reported Col. Journal, and other Grose as amonir the killed at the battle of Chickamauga Creek. This news cast a feeling of deep sadness over this commuuity although the fact that an errly dispatch '. rom Captain Ctiambers not having rnenioned the matter seemed in some measure1 to discredit the newspaper report. On Friday the Colonel sent a dispatch to his family to the effect that he was safe. He reports Win. Topping killed, Geo. Shrik and Capt. Graves wounded. He had been talcgraphed to about the, holy of Orlistus Powell, and replied that it . n could not be obtained. WOUNDED IN THE 36TII. In addition to the above we have as vet the meaner report of wounded, as published , in the Gazette of last Friday, to wit: Lieut. Col. O. II. P. Cary, slightly. leut. It. B. Carr, Co. A. slightly. Lieut. Geo. Mulligan Co. II. slightly. I.iout. W. Uutler, Co. D, severely. C ipt. John Sim, Co. I, tlightly. Capt. W. F. Laafers, Co. 11. J.tuies Patterson, Co, H. mortally. KILLED AND WOUNDED in the 84th. We are permitted to make the following extract, from a letter written by Harrison Hoover to Lis brother David dated Sent. 23d: "Tho 84th has been in a fight, and is cut to pieces. Co. G has lost the following men killed: James M. Scott was killed Sunday at four o'clock; he was shot through the breast. and wa-i left on the field. Richard Gates, killed.

Daniel S. Dickinson on "Democracy." Spurious la a letter to a Union mass meeting at Buffalo, last week, Attorney-Central D. S. Dickinson thus characterized, the Seymour "Democracy :" It mny be Democratic according to Copperhead acceptation, to encourage this perj'.ired, perfidious rebellion, by every possible mode of instimulation. It may, accordiog to tho same idea, be Democratic to present to foreign despots the exhibition of a divided people upon a question which concerns our existence, and thui encourage them to do openly what they are doiug tectetly. But it is not the Democracy in which 1 was raised. I repudiate it and ali its belongings. There re vu-uay mure iemocraia upon tne union ticket than npon the Copperhead, deducting the Know Nothing and backsliding Free oouers on theirs and as to the principles to establish as vital to which they seek Democracy, such Democratic? b.'ood, in the days of General Jackson, would hav6 vomited a leech without the aid of warm water. ;J3 Peter Cooper of New York has addressed a long letter to Gov. Seymour, in which he claims the right, as a Democrat nearly 3 years of age, and a soldier in the war of 1812, to plead with his "countrymen of all shades of political opinions, and to beseech them by every consideration that can move our manhood to look at the dangers which threaten us as a nation." He argues against the States Right doctrine ; asks if it has been found immpossible to restrain the few active abolitionists, who were in the countrv who can be accomplished when, by the course of events, tney nave Deen multiplied one hundred, or a thousand fold ? brings evidence to show that the President's Emancipation Proclamation has done more to weaken the rebellion and prevent foreign recognation, than any measure that could have been adopted; denounces the making Slavery the corner stone of their proposed Confederacv by the rebels, and expatiates on the benefit which will result to the South from emanci pation. In conclusion, ho bes;s the Governor to exert his influence fur the vigorous prosecution of U war, saying : "I do not know a single man in the whole nation, who has the power to do so much to strengthen the hands of the Government as yourself, l our efforts may prevent foreign in terferenC8 u our attairs, and enable our Government the sooner to bring the rebellion to an end. 1 he influence you can exert would

I am informed that a great many of them are over,atv at once. Unless tbev do so. they will cause a great deal of trouble. They will 'be marked on the rolls bv their officers as deterters, and when the record i once made np it will b-3 bard to set aside or disprove.

How to Cure a fjreat Evil. Mr. Crittenden, in bis recent patriotic spt-ech, alluded to the pecular difficu'ties of Kentucky as a "border 6ta'.e forming a part of the border line between freedom I and slavery. There is no doubt a hardship ; in this situation, and it is alreajy breeding trouble among the rebels; the cotton planters regard the "border slave states" ss valuable chiefly because they form a convenient fighting ground, while their people mako good 6oldiers and are a safe barrier between "the North" and the cotton s'ates. This is the servile and mean use to which Davis and his cotton-planting fellow-con-i-pirators devoted the 'border states' frm the beginning of the rebellion. Accomplish disunion, and Virginia, Tennessee and Mis souri would be hereafter, in war, the bloody , battlefield ol contending social systems ; i and in peace, territory where it would be impossible for residents to keep slaves, but whers the cotton planter wo ild be free to hunt down his runaway chattels with bloodhounds. 4, This is not a templing prospect. It is far lass pleasant th.m the condition of the?e states in the Union. But why should there bj any unpleasantness ? WThy should we have "border states" in the centre of the Union ! Why is it that tho terms "North" .. i i i i.o.i . ; ;i;..t; so singular, a political meaning which East and West have never had? Is there no cure for this? Are we destined to perpetuate the absurdity of having a "border" in the middle of our country, as well as on its frontier ? All this ridiculous and mischievous cant of sectionalism is the fruit of the slave sys- j tern. Do away with slavery in Kentucky, and what will remain to mark that state and j separate it from Ohio as a "border state"? j Nothinjr. No one ever thinks of calling t Ohio, or Illinois, or Indiana, or Pennsylvania a "border state" they are free; the mo- J ment Kentucky and Virginia are free they also will-cease to be "border states" and sectionalism will leave them out of its list. Already, in these two years of war, the area included in the term "South" has been j greatly diminished. When men now 6peak of "the South they no longer include Maryland, or Kentucky, or Missouri. They j scarcely mean to count in Tennessee or Vir- j ginia. "the ooutu uas lo&i, in tne signt of the world, in these two years, territory as great as all France. It is slowly receding; it must continue to fall back until it falls into the gulf of Mexico for that which i called "the South" those treacherous arisj tocrats who first rallied under this sectional title will, when we re-establish peace, have left forever the land they vexed with their crimes. And so, too of tha term "border states.", and, we hope before long to see this among! the obsolute pojif.csl phrases, tor the meaning of. which the rising generation will have to refer to old political text -books and i addresses. Ii is a bard lot, say Kentuckians, to be a border state. very true; wc hope (hey will not lor.g be in that condition; the moment Kentucky is rid of slavery, that moment she will cease to be a " border state" rthat moment all the hardships of that condition will leave her. At the word liberty, the devil who has too long vexed her will flv; and wc shall no longer find a difference between cousins and brothers, speaking the same language, eating bread grown on the same fields, holding the same faith, divided in resideence only by a stream which it takes but two minutes to cross, and which in a dry season a full grown man can wude. A Horse fond f JHiscbleC A gentleman some years ago, speaking of the habits of animals, gave the following curious account : There is, he said, a very fine horse in the possession of Sir Henry Meux & Co., the eminent brewers, which is used as a drayhorse, but is so tractable that he is left sometimes without any restraint to walk about the yard and return to the stable, according to his fancy. In the yard there are also a few pigs of a peculiar breed, fed on grains and corn, and to these pigs the horse has evidently an insuperable objection , which is illustrated by the following fact There is a deep trough in the yard, hold in2 water for the horses, where this horse goes alone with his mouth full of corn. which he saves from his supply. When he reaches the trough he lets the corn fall near it on the ground, and when the youos swine approach to cat it,( for the old ones keep alopf.) he suddenly seizes one of them by the tail, pops him into the trough, and then capers about the yard.' seemingly delighted with the frolic. ' The noise of the pig soon brings the men fo Ms assistance, who know from experience what is the matter, while the horse indulges in all sorts of antics, by way.of showing bis gle, and then returns quietly to the stable.

Good way to ktrep SuioUeU Hams. Good bams, well cured and well preserved aro very coi.venient to have in the, house. They are wholesome food, and are always ready when other meats ate absent, or when a hurried, impromptu solid meal is needed. In our travels this summer we bare eaten ham in a go-.d many places, al the hotels aud elsewhere some verv poor, full ot salt ana smoke, ana then fried to a crisp, , and some very good, sweet, lender, f.e4. and just cooked through. The best we believe was met with at friend Quiobv's at St. Jobnsville. N. Y . where we called after the usual dinner hour, and was jast in condi- ( tton to enjoy a good repast qaickly got up. For tho benent of the housrkeepers of the! American Agriculturist family we enquired the process of enring the l ams: They were put in brine in the usual manner last Fall or Winter, and when just fairly salted thro were moderatetv smoaked. lneywere. next cut into slices ready . for tho table, aud then packed closely into stom-ware crocks, and the lard cooked out pored over them. When there is not fat " enough fried out to cover thera, some milted lard was added. The crocks were covered and set away .and whenever ham is wanted, it is only necessary to take out a few pieces and finish the cookin-r, in less than five miautcs with no trouble or time wasted in hunting np and sharpening the knife and saw. We can testify that in the case refered to, the hams were as sweet and tender as could be desired. The method appears to bo worthy of general adoption. We may add here, that nine out of ten housekeepers cook ham too much to leave it either palatable or digestible. It has not a raw taste, if barely heated well through. By the above method ef preserving, the salting and smoaking need ouly be carried to iust the desired point to make them the most palatable. American Agriculturist'. Wuat tiik Frost Did. The Evansvillo Journal says the late frost was very destructive; corn, tobacco, cotton, sweet potatoes, and other vegetables suffering from it great ly. It has information from the Valley of White River, Knox, Daviess, Oreen, Owen, Pike and Warrick counties, to this effect, and the news from Kentucky is no hotter. It adds: "The celebrated tobacco factors, Crane, mown oc Co., ot this city, are receiving letters dairy from all parts of the country, on both sides of the riyer, giving the most gloomy accounts of the prospects of this great staple in their respective localities." INot n Morsel front ITIe. We know that Vallandigham refused, as Congressman, to vote a dollar or a man for this war, and also refused to vote supplies for men when they were raised, for such is part of bis recorded hitdory ; but it aeema be even refused to contribute a morsal to feed the men who were summoned to Cincinnati to beat back the rebel invaders from Obio soil. The Cleveland Leader gives the following as having occurred at a Union meeting held in Euclid on Saturday evening: Mr. Ansel Walworth, one of the most reliable citizens of this county, on being called up, made the following statement every word of which can be substantiated by ottter equally reliable men: When the armed citizens of the Reserve were on their way to the defense of Cincinnati last summer, they found ample provisions made for tbeir sustenance at all the points where refreshments wero needed, except at Dayton. At that city our hungry defenders were obliged to solicit, or be like needy mendicants; and to secure something like au adequate supply, a committee was appointed to visit the different portions of the town and make their wants known. Mr. Walworth accompanied those of this committee, who, in their round, visited the dwelling of C. L. Vallandingham, who was at home, and with whom an interview was bad by the committee, in the presence of Mr. Walworth. The committee respectfully mado known their errand to Mr. Vallandigham, and stated for what purpose our citizans were oo tbeir way South, that they were hungry, and needed bread, meat, dec. . To this Mr. Vallandigham replied "You shall not have a morsel from me. Go back home and stay there, and the rebels will not hurt anybody. If you were all starving in the streets, I would not give you a morsel of bread." The "Whisperer.' An army correspondent ia Virginia relates the following incident of oae of the dodges which are resorted to by soldiers to obtain their discharge: ' One of the guards attracted my attention, becaure he was apparently voiceless. This soldier was robust and strong, bateould converse only with "bated breath," or in low whispers, rour weeks be was on duty, and I saw him daily, in calm or storm, but he never spoke aloud. He said he caught cold on the peninsula, it bad settled in bis throat, and since then he could not talk. A few days previous to the general movement of the army he succeeded by some strategy in getting a bottle of whisky. Of courts he made himself drunk. I was walking up the yard into the bouse late in the evening. It was very dark, suddenly someone seized me by the foot, and in tremendous tones ordered me to "halt Il was the Whisperer, for eueh his comrades calle J him. He could talk louder than I, and as he sang snatches cf hymns aad songs, I fell asleep wondering at the stiange phenomenon! Next m rairg I sought him early, and bv dint of cross-questioniog, discovered that be had been workiog all the lime for his discharge. Ue succeeded .so well as to have his discharge papers mad out, and would soon have been pa his homeward way rejoic ing. But that fa al bottle of whisky ualoosed Lis tongue and thus he was betrayed. Ha was sot discharged. ... ' ' ii - :' ' J .e.-.r,. 'AH who wish nice Dry Goods at low prices will do well to go to lUai Quarter "So. 27 Main street.
