SMOKO. $

Under the azure sky, prone on the yellow IP*# siiixl, Under the Master's eye. 'midist of a Christian land.

Lie.s a woman's form, lithe, frnil ond fair "With her face Ann set in wild despair Oh wipe the death.ooze from her lip«

And smooth the death damp from her hair, Brush otr the dark water that drips

Down over her bosom so fair She once was an innocent child, No doubt a prattler at play, •fn Thank God! mother's eyes that oncesmlled, I See not her wrecked offspring to-day.

A boatman, rough, sun-browned, stands elose to where she lies, A fellow creature drowned, makes tears bedim his eyes, lie thinks not now of her sin and shame,

While sympathy bids him n-sk her name. Jark rolls the river black as night— Little it's changeless hues will tell What mad despair 'twas caused her flight

Out of the world we love so well But the sad, stony eyes can speak As they gaze up into the sky, And t'-ll us how woman is weak,

Aye, can tell us the reason why.

The story sad is old, of trust betrayed by sin, II has been often told, of what so oft has been— The poor drowned form on the yellow sand Is a fact that all can understand. .Bring the man to the river bank,

Where the form of his victim's laid Shrouded in sea-weed, cold and dank, And face betrayer and betrayed. Does he flinch when he sees the sight?

Does lit stand like a stag at bay Then, mayhap, the river to-night, Will plash over more mortal clay.

Reminiscences of the Late War.

A A IN O I E E E II A E S O N IF E S

IIV JUK I! KNTKit.

Pending the late roballion there was 110 loyal State that sent to the front more valiant soldiers than did the State of Indiana, and there was no goneral battle of that long and sanguinary conflict that was not participated in by our gallant lloosier Hoys, whose sacrifices and patriotic ellort.s in support of the "old flag" made them a name that will live in history, and le the prido and boast ot their posterity as long us the lamp of Human Liberty continues to illuminate the Temples of a Republican (iovernniejit.

The historians, who have attempted the Herculean task of transmitting to future generations a faithful chronicle of I lie battles, inarches and events, thai occurred during the unfriendly Htrnggle, whilst (hey have accomplished grout work have been unsuccessful and unsatisfactory in the main. As an evidence of the truth of this statement, I will mention one of tho most prominent of these omissions.

I take it as an established fact, that there is no 111:111, woman, child, negro, or dog, who resided within the geographical limits of Terrc-llautc during the years lN(il-2, who have forgotten a military organization then existing in that city and known as the Union Kifles—a company drilled and disciplined by Captain Hough, an odicer of the regular army—and commanded by that gallant and true man, Captain M. I. Topping, who afterwards lost his life at the battle of Richmond, Kentucky. He was a noble man, honored and respected by his soldiers, and loved by all who had (lie pleasure of coming within the circle of his acquaintance. This company was coinposed of the (lower and chivalry of the male population of the Prairie City—I was a member myself. It was an independent organization, gotten up by the patriotic citizens as an ornament to lie place— Rase Rail at that time had not been discovered—whose principal object was not to leave the State except in ivt.se of invasion or insurrection, in which event it was to be optional with the majority whether they would put their guns upon their shoulders and rush to the conflict, or whether they would put their shoulders upon their guns and rest in fancied security.

With this brief history of the organization and object of this military pageantry, I will proceed with my narrative.

During the month of July, IStU!, (I think it was,) Adam Johnson, a noted rebel chieftain.who commanded a predatory band of rebel guerrillas whose base of operations was confined to the «reen River region of Kentucky, made a raid upon Newburg, a small town in thi-i State situated on the Ohio River a short distance alnn Kvansville, where was located a hospital for Union soldiers, and captured a few guns ami several old army blankets, paroled a few sick soldiers, and escaped with their booty to Kentucky.

The news Hew upon the lightning's wings, that the rebel horde had dared wantonly to mike footprints in the sands of Indiana soil, and the outraged patriotism of her gallant sons immediately went up to 100° in the shade. (.Joveruor Morion, always awake and alive to the interests and honor of the St »t\ issued a patriotic appeal calling th 'piKiple. without regard to ago, sex, color, or former condition of politics, to arm. Our company was tendered and acv pled, and in loss than three hours fr the time of our acceptance, we hoard a train and steaming Uiii h*» front at the rate of twentytl iuil'*s hour. We reached Kvans.Viile, *vlu»re we disembarked, about 5 o'i loc v. ami were immediately put on lo:srv? of flotilla consisting of on is gvsnbo.it, mounting two ^welve-

pounders and pierced for more, short residence upon our craft couvinc ed us that sho belonged to tlio mosquito fleet. Our Captain was duly Ynstallcd Flag-officer, with quarters on dc«sk. was supposed the rebels were in camp a short distanco up from the inoutK of Green River, but in consequence of tho difficult navigation of tho stream, It was thought best not to surprise the enemy by a forward movement until the following morning. We wer therefore ordered to turn in, which did under the skylights of our steamer and the gallant Ilosford was put in charge of the dock as executive officer, It maj' not be improper at this point to relate a strange astronomical phenome 11011 discovered by Mr. Ilosford while in the discharge of his duty.

This officer, while promenacfing liis beat, noticed two large black columns suddenly appear in the heavens reach ing, apparently, from the horizon to the sky, exact in form and length Near the top ofoneofthe.se columns, appeared a red light, while upon the other there was plainly visible a green one. Being of an investigating turn of mind, he oidered his glass, determined to investigate the cause of this strange ness.

Throughout the watches of tho night he continued at his post, seemingly oblivious of the "girl he left behind liiin," and of the great conflict in which he was about to engage, and which involved the life of the Nation (is well as the honor of Indiana, until tlie light of day rewarded his perseverance with a solution of the mystery. The black columns turned out to be tho chimneys of our gunboat, while the red and green lights were signal lanterns suspended thereto. The same phenomenon can be witnessed aboard any of our river steamers after night. Our friend Ilosford, whose nautical experience was not immense, was doubtless laboring under a delusion produced by frequent imbi bation of Ohio River water—a beverage he had been unaccustomed to, or other wise his glass was at fault.

The morning came, a glorious Sab bath morning, that brought with it sweet memories of Sabbath Schools and clean shirts, and impressed us with a fearful realization of the fact that tho eyes of the Nation were upon 11s, and that our Government confidently expected us to break the spinal vertebrae of tho rebellion ero the sun passed the western horizon. \fter partaking sumptuously of a bounteous repast of army fritters and nothing else, we set about clearing the deck iu preparation for the clash of arms that was so soon to come upon us. Our dag ship was headed for tho seat of war, the propelling power was applied, and slowly but majestically we glided upon the placid bosom of Im belle Riviere in tho supposod direction of the foe.

A short run of two hours brought us to the supposed ambuscade of tho rebels, but after a terrific reeonnoisance through peach orchards and melon patches, it was ascertained the enemy had evacuated. Wo were thou ordered aboard our gunboat and returned to Evansvillo, without loss or casualty. The citizens of that truly loyal city, in consideration of our brilliant military achievements, kindly consented that we might repose upon the floor of the court house, which proposition was accepted, and wo all retired in good order to dream of battles fought and victories won.

The following morning found the city alive with soldiers who had just arrived, and the "pomp" and circumstance of glorious war wore plainly visible upon ever}' hand, and it was evident to all that a grand and formidable "On to Richmond was soon to commence. Colonels (ravin and Wilder were in command of all the land and naval forces, and were busilv engaged in organizing their commands, preparatory to a forward movement. Ry some accident it was discovered that tho "Union Rifles" Mere not United States soldiers wo were therefore drawn up in line and Colonel Gavin proceeded to muster us into the service of the United States for ten days or during'the war.

Our command—numbering aboutjone thousand souls—was then embarked upon the gunboat, and a transport and under sealed orders, was soon gliding down the Ohio to some place unknown to all, except those who were posted. After a very fatiguing march wo reached Henderson, Kentucky, where wo disembarked, and were then informed by our officers that we were upon the "dark and bloody ground"—(this remark caused some of our boys to look ssrious)—and that it was expected in a very short time we would necessarily be drawn into a battle that would in all probability end the rebellion, and if we nut did our duty we would either all be killed or taken prisoners. These remarks were received amid the most tumultuous silence some of tho bovs wrote home to their friends not to oe uneasy alxmt them others tried to obtain a nine days' furlough, in ordei to settle up some business matters and determination was plainly visible in every countenance. The forward movement commenced. A march of three hours brought us in sight of about fifteen hundred of our foes drawn up in line across our |athway. We were immediately drawn up in groups behind the trees, impatiently awaiting the commencement of hostilities. The rebels, swing we meant business, hastily retired, leaving us masters of the situation. We started in hot pursuit, on tho double-quick, for about one hundred yards but becoming exhausted, we sat down to obtain that rest wo so much needed, and while thus situated ate ourdinner. After refreshments, we again took up the line of march, ami went into camp about five o'clock r. m. near Fisher's farm, a noted rebel rendezvous, al»out twelve miles from Henderson. We were without tents or culinary equipage, and consequently had to eat things raw, and sleep on the round without shelter. Judge Rallard mith. Harry Danaldson, and myself occupied the "ground floor in close proximity to a log, Frank Crawfora and Max* Wood slept on top of another, and in fact the whole command were doing well under the circumstances.

Day light found us again on the war fc

path. Early in the morning some of

our boys capturod ft notorious rebel by the namo of Fiolds and about twentyflvo stands ot arms.. A team and wagon was immediately mustered into tho service to transport our captured ordnanco and baggage for by this time our boys began to navo considerable, and as novices in tho art of war wore doing well.

In consequenco of tho long and arduous march", sonio of tho boys gavo out and wero sent to tho rear. They returned to Henderson ai)d wero put on picket duty to recuperato.

Tho second day's march took us about throe miles bovond Fisher's farm, on the direct rond to Petersburg, whero wo went into summer quarters. Hero I received my first promotion. Our Colonel desired Captain Topping to recommend some 0110 from liis command to act as Forago-mastcr. Ho required one who was a goo:i judge of old ham and butter, and who could purloin chickens from high roosts without causing a squall or milling a foather, promising such a 0110 steady wprk and a bunk at headquarters. The ev%» of the command at oneo fell upon me, and I was brought out from my seclusion and placed in this high and honorable position. I was keenly sensible of my unwortliiness, but determined to bend every energy to merit the hijjh distinction and conhdenco reposed 111 me, and entered at once upon the discharge of my onerous duties by stealing an old, llea-bitten, gray mare from the wagon-master upon which to ride to glory and renown.

I organized a squad of mounted brigands—natives of Kentucky—and began aggressive movements toward tho larder and cribs at Fisher's farm. This raid was entirely successful—two wagon loads of corn, one mule team, one superannuated, old descendant of Ham—" Dud by cognomen—three su-gar-cured representatives of the same family, one kettle of soft soap, one spinning wheel, and a bee gum, were the fruits of the reeonnoisance, in consideration of which I was presented with a pair of wooden spurs by 1113' company.

Our camp that night was surprised by a straggling member of the porcine species, who lost his life in consequence of his rashness.

We learned from an intelligent contraband that the enemy were massing their forces at Petersburg, in Webster countj', and as the Government had wisely determined that Petersburg was tho key to Richmond, we decided to capture the key and open the door. So early one morning we broke up camp and proceeded to put ourselves in communication with the enemy. We surprised him in his stronghold and took the place, capturing some prisoners, an ox team, two barrels'of whisk}', and an old gray horse, and our Colonel, Gavin,immediately moving upon his works —all of which was accomplished without throwing a rock or investing a single sheaf of oats. We returned to our camp, bringing away with us everything we could carry of a contraband nature. Upon reaching our camp we learned that Lieutenant Braden, who was bringing a portion of a battery to our assistance, had been killed, and Colonel Gavin and several otlierofficers were severely wounded. This was tho first blood of the campaign, and created quite an excitement among the soldiers.

Wo then marched down to Fisher's farm and camped upon his ground, making the house our headquarters. In a sanitary point of view, this was the best location Ave had found. The women folks cooked for us and got things up in good shape, wo paj'ing a fair price for all we received.

To attempt to give all the particulars of this memorable campaign would make this communication too long consequently I am forced to omit many interesting events.

We returned to Henderson at the expiration of our term of service, and were banquctted at Judge Woodruffs in splendid style. There wero present, upon this occasion, some magnificent representatives of Kentucky beauty, and strange to say all of us were single men "even your humble servant wns so confused amid the scented atmosphere of beauty and loveliness that, for the time being, lie became oblivious to the existence of his Mary Ann.

A great many pleasant" episodes occurred during our stay in that place, which will cause the kind people of that city to be long remembered by all the boys.

Some of the young ladies presented our company with a beautiful eight by ten flag, which Judge Smith received in splendid stylo. We also had quite an ovation at Owensboro, that will long be remembered with pleasure. Judge Yearman made the reception speech, which was also responded to by Judge Smith. Our choir, led by Mose Alshuler, contributed splendid vocal music upon all proper occasions, and as singists acquired an enviable reputation.

We returned home covered with dirt and glory and wore received at tho depot with music and banners, and after an appropriate reception speech by Colonel R. W\ Thompson, The olii man eloquent of tho West, who told in burning eloquence how much we had accomplished in the suppression of tho rebellion, wo were marched through the principal streets to our armory, where our glorious military renown began and ended. Several of our bovs brought home some souvenirs of the rebellion. Lieutenant Fred. A. Ross captured a scathe. Lieutenants Williams and Wood got some beautiful samples of hill-side navy. George Farrington and Marling Earlv captured a

horse anv buggy, but couldn't get them away. Ren Harbert gobbled a ciderpress and a grind-stone, but was forced to leave them for want of transportation and, in fact, all of us, more or less, were the recipients ot some slight testimonial of our prowess.

I am sorry that I am unable to give tho names of the rank and file of our company the roll cannot lie obtained. The names of these patriots should be handed down, thereby making another honored record upon the escutcheon of our glorious old lloosier State.

No Ijoose Cog Wheels About It!

Impossible to Choke it—The Feed Changed in One Second—Will Sow any kind of Grain or

Seed, whether Clean or Foul!

The grain is distributed by means of small double spiral fead wheels working in cups uuder tha hopper these wheels carry the grain upwards to a discharge opening in the cup and force it out, and with it force out straws and other obstructions. It is utterly impossible to choke it, and as evidence of this fact the wheat we have in our sample machine is half chaff, and by turning the wheel it is carried through as well as clean wheat.

It will sow any kind of grain, and in auy quantity desired. Iu other force feed drills to change the feed you remove one cog wheel and put in another and the cog wheels are loose and liable to be lost. In the
