and Mrs. R. B. DEVORE, in th? ?ita year of his,
ago. " ^
My dear little CHASLIE,

There's not a flower wc see.

Some joy'that's gone with thee.'*
But ..."

But to be lost when s wac test."
. DIED, on the evening of tho 9th. of January,
after a short but severe illness of on'y four days,
JENNIE, daughter of EDWARD and NANCY PRES
LEY, and adopted daughter of JOHN F. and RACHEL
S. BURNS, of Edgefield District;
Deep grief rests on theso once happy house
holds; for a bright flower has boon suddenly snatch
ed away by the cruel hand of Death, to bloom in
Eternity. JENN it. the gentle, and pure-bear ted,
fis gone from us. Her voice is hushed on Earth
?rever. The place that knew " her will knew her
no more. Nothing can fill the aching void inude
in tho new desolate home-cirole. Scarcely fifteen
years of unclouded1 sunshine, has she trod life's
pathway, endearing herself to alUbyher manyi
beautiful traita of character. .Tho. world was
bright before her; and juat advancing io woman
hood, ?he gave promise of being an. ornament to
the little circle In which, th o moved. The favorite
of her schoolmates, sha walked among them un
conscious of the love thoy bore her. Long, long,
will her memory be dear to us. May Ho euablo
the bereaved to say, " Thy will be done."
. ff Oh she was too fair aad dear
For our troubled pathway here ;
Heaven,-that was her natural sphere,.
Has its own removed."

"WILLIAM BR?WX waa enlisted as a recruit to
the above-named Company in tho carly, portion
of 1BG2, and continued with .us, ia all the
dangers and hardships of the soldier's life, having
enjoyed remarkably good health ; he was r.bscnt
inly once from tho Company, and then only for
a short time. As a soldier be was prompt in the
discharge of duty, and behaved well in battle;
as a man he waa temperato and pious, much of
his timo boing doroted to tho reading of the
Scriptures-and the praise of God.
H? died in the-28th year of bis age, leaving a
a loving wi'o and several little children, whom he
. loved most devotedly. Ho also leJBbehind two
brothers ia the same Company. Wuh his family
aad friends we sincerely sympathize, and ei
Secially with tho bereaved wife. Wo hope and

PRIVATE H. C. n ARRIS ON, Co. K,*15th STc.
. Regt, and son of Jas. S. and MARY A. HARRISON,
the subject of-this brief notice, was born March
21sl 1845, and enlisted for the war in tho above
named Company at the time of its organization,
when he waa scarcely more than 16 years of ago.
He served his country most faithfully upon the
Coast ef South Carolina, in the Virginia, Maryland
and Pennsylvania campaigns, and in tho West. As
a saldier ho was cheerful, brave and prompt-ever
ready and willing to discharge his duty. It is
on?bgh to say that he belonged to KEKSH A w's
Brigade, LONGSTREET'S Corps,'and as a soldier of
auch a command has ever acquitted himself with
honor. At the battlo of Chickamauga his gallan
try was such as to win" tho admiration of all who
witnessed it. In a heavy skirmish near Knoxville,
on the 13th of Nov. last, while nobly fighting'for
Soulhorn rights ho fell dead, pierced through the
right breast and left thigh.
Endowed, with energy and perseverance, ho
rad only to have lived to hare made for himself
a name and left an impression of his worth which
thi lapse of years could only have effaced; but
he was cut down in the very bloom of youth,
When the qualities which characterized the man
wer? just being fully developed.
It grieves the writer to think how inadequate
the use of tho pen must of necessity bo when -an
attempt is made to do justice to the memory of
one so gifted, gallant and noble.
He has loft behind him, fond parents, an affec
tionate sister and two youthful brothers, to whom
wo oiTer our sincere sympathies.
A short time previous to the departure of his
Regiment from Virginia te go to Chattanooga, he
sent tho accompanying farewell, address to his
parente, whom ho so devotedly loved, in which he
so tenderly tolls them that if it bo God's will that
he shauld fall in the defence of his conntry he was
ready te make the sacrifice.
Farewell to theo father.' although I am young,
I go the war's wild alarms,
Our country to save from oppression and wrong,
Or dhj with my comrades iu arms. .
farewell, father, dear ! I may never again
Fondly gaze on those locke thin and gray ;
Bat if in the conflict of battle I am slain.
To meet thee in'Heaven I pray.
Farewell to thee, mother! No love is like thine,
So lasting, so deep and so pure ;
ATpd j trust, through the goodness of Providence,,
To rotern to thy besom secure.
Farewell mother, doar ! If I die far way,
Thy heart will be grieved for thy son,
But God will sustain thee, and cause theo to say,
" Thy will, Righteous Father, be done."
Farewell to you, brothers too ! Dear little boys,
You know not tho meaning of foe ;
May God make me strong in defence of thc cause,
And saro you, my brothers', from woe.
Farewell, my dca? brothers J Bc loving and good,
And mind what dear mother may say ;
Your brother will come back if best that he should,
For God can his enemies slay.
Farewell, sister, dear Sjjjbcn I think of tqe wrong,
The fiends would inflict if they could,
I can scarcely refrain from polluting my tongue,
With a curse ou the black-hearted brood.
Farewell, my dear sister! may God keep you puro, !
Surrounded, wift tsomforts and friends, ?
And blest with the'grace that alone can secure,
The bliss that Wo know never ends.
Farcwf ll io you all ! aad my last it may be,
But may God whom I reverence and lijar,,
So a home that is blest, iu" a land that is pure,
Bring safoly tho young Volunteer,

Extensive Fire.
A most disastrous fire occurred in Columbia
3resterday, by'whtcfc property-, to the amount,.
? of several millions of dollars tva? speedily de-"
strayed.* I's-: cause .Temains unknown.' It
( broke outshout 10 45 a. m., in the central
cotton shed of the square-on Lady street next
to Alexander's foundry ind machine shop;;,
-andjrapidly ?pw*d to the two other sheds .on
the sr.me square and almost as rapidly leaped
:the space of the.stree't separating it from, the
. sqr. ire next above to the east. On thc squaro
fiist named, all the buildings 'ccrntaiuing cot
ton and one containing two steam cr, gin OM,
eight or ten sugar mills, a'gfisf mill and cast
ings were destroyed. Thc cotton was stored
by J. M.- Blakely <fc Co., thtmills, &c, bo- j
longed to John Alexander. One building
fronting tjio south on, this square was saved
by great exertions and by . the pjnergetic and
prompt assistance ofCapt. Sejiu arid his com
pany' of eighty men. Their conduct, has been
the theme of much praise. It was a difficult.
feat to save this building enveloped as it was
by others in full conflagration'on the west,
- north ond east of it, and near to it. A cot
ton shed'-on-'the square above and several res
idence's were consumed. This cotton was also
stored by-Blakely & Co. Two of the dwell
ings belonged to T. D. Fc&ster. Capt. Casson
was ft heavy sufferer-losing his dwelling and
out houses, furniture, and valuable stores of j
provisions,-a considerable quantity of rice,
pickled beef, pork and eight killing hogs.
Later in. the day, about 2,30 p. m.,.the flames
extended to the cotton shed owned by J. G.
I Gibbes, on the western corner cf the gas work's
I lot. The building and 500 bales upland cot
1 ton were soon past recevery.Surprise has
been expressed at the I035 of this building.
It is thought, that, at least, the cotton might
have been saved.
It is estimated that. 3.750 bales of upland
and 800 bales of sea island, in the bands of j
Blakely & Co.. and 500 bales of upland, be
longing to Mr. Gibbes, is aBout-the amount
of the loss of cotton. We have not learned,
the extent of insurance, except that there
was none on the cotton of Mr.. Gibbes, and
that Mr. Hitt is a loser (having no insurance,)
to the amount of $10,000, on a lot of cotton
stored with Blakely & Co. 3 Mr. Alexander's
loss will probably equal $50,000. We have
no doubt f at many persons have lost con
siderably, and that the greatest ' loss, though
it may be nominally less than thoso mention
~ed, has fallen upon persons, who . hav? been
dispossessed pf home and its comforts.
Diff?rent conjectures have been expressed
as to the cause of the fire. A rigid scrutiny
ought to be instituted into it. We have heard
casually that an attempt was made by an in
cendiary to fire the work shop and mill of j
Mr. Tozer, during the height ?nd fury of |
tho conflagration. Our people cannot bc too
watchful.
Wc should baye mentioned before that* our
firemen wcro promptly on the spot, and did
all that zeal, energy and siill could effect to
extinguish the flames-The fire was peculiar
ly angry and uncontrollable iii its character,
owing to 'the high wind prevailing, and the
combustible materiallt fed upon.-r-Columbia
Guardian.
A TOUCH OSE.-A soldier was observed a
short lime since busily engaged in making
depredations upon the .colonies that had com
fortably established themselves among the ca
pillary ornaments of his person. A passer
by noiiccd him, and said, " Why don't'you pul
mercurial ointment on your head and kill those
things !" " Mercurial ointment,'" said the
soldier, " why I've got lice on my Lead th::t
are able to sit up and eat two bits worth, and
get fat on it. Jtwtlook a't that follow I've
just caught-big enough to be shot with a
musket ball fifty yards. He's been feeding
