* "General Order' (No. 45) from the
Adjutant and Inspector General's Office,
will be published on Monday morning,
the substance of which is as fol'
lows :
Article I states that the following orders
are published for the information
and obser vance of all concerned:
[The next five articles are in the form
of a preamble :J
Article II recites the order issued by
the Secretary of War of the United
.States, directing the military commanders
of that government to seize and
use the property, real and personal, belonging
the inhabitants of this Con- i
federacy, and states that no provision
is made for any compensation to the
owners of private property thus seized.
Article III quotes Gen. Pope's recent
order for the arrest of "all disloyal
male citizens," who are to be "conducted
beyond the lines of the U. States
Army," etc.
Article IV recites the order of Brigadier
General Steinwher, U. S. A. for
the arrest of the "most prominent citizens
of Page county, Va." to be held
as hostages, and to suffer death in the
event of any of the soldiers of the said
Steinwehr being shot by 'bushwhack-i
-. ere'?by which term are meant the citi- i
zens of this Confredeacy who have taken
up arms to defend their homes.
Article V. And whereas it results
from the above orders that some of the
military authorities of the U. States,
... not content with the unjust and aggressive
warfare hitherto waged with savage
cruelty against an unoffending people,
and exasperated by the failure of
their' effort to subjugate them, have now
determined to violate all the rules and
usages of war, and to convert the hostilities
hitherto waged against armed
forces into a campaign of robbery against
unarmed citizens and peaceful
tillers of the soil.
Article VL And whereas this government,
bound by the highest obligations
of duty to its citizens, is thus
driven to the necessity of adopting such
just measures of retribution and retaliation
as shall seem adequate to repress
and punish these barbarities; and whereas
the orders above recited have been
only published and made known to the
* government since the signature of the
cartel for the exchange of prisoners of
war, which cartel, is so far as it provides
for an exchange of those hereafter
captured, would never have been
4 signed or agreed to by this government
if the intention to change the war into
a system of ^discriminate robbery had
been made known to it; and whereas a
*ju8t regard to humanity forbids that
the repression of crime, which this government
is compelled to enforce, should
be necessarily extended on the enlisted
men in the army of the United States,
who may be the unwilling instruments
of the savage cruelty of their commanders,
so bng as there is a hope that the
excesses of the enemy may be checked
or prevented by retribution on commis
sioned officers, who have the power tc
avoid the guilty action, by refusing service
under a government which seeks
their aid in the perpetration of such infamous
barbarities?
VII. Therefore, It is ordered, Thai
Maj. Gen. Pope, Brig. Gen. Steinwehr.
and all commissioned officers serving un
der their respective commands, be anc
they are hereby expressly and specially
declared to be not entitled to be con
sidered as soldiers, and, therefore, nol
entitled to the benefit of the cartel foi
the parole of future prisoners of war
Ordered further, That in the event o!
the capture of Maj. Gen. Pope or Brig
Gen. Steinwehr, or any commissionec
officers serving under them, the captiv*
so taken shall be held in close.confine
ment so long as the orders aforesak
shall continue in force and unrepealet
t by the competent military authoritie:
of the United States; and that in thi
event of the murder of any unarme<
citizen or inhabitant of this Confedera
cy, by virtue, or under pretext of anj
of the orders hereinbefore recited
whether with or without trial, whethei
under pretence of sak. citizen being i
spy or hostage, or any other pretence
it shall be the duty of the comffiandin^
general of the forces of this Confedera
cy to cause immedtetely to be hung, ou
of the commissioned officers prisoner
aforesaid, a number equal to the nura
ber of our own citizens thus murdere(
by the enemy.

The following extracts are from the
Richmond Examiner of the 1st:
FROM FREDERICKSBURG.'
We have late advices from Fredericksburg.
The enemy's pickets extend
three miles on this side of Spotsylvania
Court House. ^ Every by-way and
hog-path through the woods is picketed,
showing that an attack from this quarter
is apprehended.
About one thousand runaway negroes
are sojourning for the present at "Sandy
Bottom," the southern suburbs of
Fredericksburg. They subsist, upon
Yankee crackers, blackberries, and
whatever they can steal from the loyal
citizens in the town and the surrounding
country. A Yankee named Watkins
James, formerly a superintendent of the
Welford Iron Furnace, on the Rappahannock,
ten miles West of Fredericksburg,
is now making preparations to resume
work at that place on a large scale.
He has about him between a thousand
and fifteen hundred runaway negroes,
whom he has variously employed. The
greater number are cutting wood and
making coal, while others are cutting
grass and making the crops on the furnace
tract.
THE PAMUNKEY INDIANS.
Information having been sent to this
city that the Federal army while operating
on the Chickahominy was piloted
and aided by the Pamunkey Indians,
detective officer George W. Thomas was
dispatched last week to King William
County, with a squad of men, for the
purpose of arresting such of the mongrel
tribe as were engaged in the business.
The party entered the village on
Friday night and captured eleven, one
of whom escaped on the way back, and
three more were discharged after an examination
at King William Court House
while the remaining seven were brought
on to Richmond, where they are now
held as prisoners. We understand that
they acknowledge the charge alleged against
them, but urge as an excuse that
they were forced into the Federal ser
vice.
FROM THE VALLEY.
A letter receiver! at this office, dated
Mt. Jackson, July 28, states that the
stages are now running between Staunton
and Woodstock, and that the Yankees
have all left the Valley, with the
exception of a few at Winchester. The
writer says that after Fremont's defeat
at Port Republic a more abject set was
never witnessed than tfiat composing
the Yankee army; officers sent in their
resignations, soldiers deserted in squads
and dissatisfaction prevailed generally.
The crops of wheat and oats are represented
to be the finest ever grown in
the Valley, with abundance of grass,
and a good prospect for a crop of corn.
Stock of every description was pretty
effectually destroyed by the Yankees.
In the town of Mt. Jackson alone they
killed forty-one milch cows. In one inj
stance they -killed a cow and cut her
I tongue out and left her otherwise untouched.
One company of General Robertson's
cavalry made a dash at the enemy near
Winchester on the 23d, routing them
and capturing nineteen prisoners, three
loaded wagons, and forty horse9. Every
day some prisoners brought through
Mt. Jackson.
ENGAGEMENT ON JAMES RIVER--HEAVY
CANNONADE.
Shortly after 12 o'clock on Thursday
night the citizens of Richmond were
startled by heavy and continuous reports
of cannon, proceeding from the
direction of City Point. The reports
were very rapid, and those who occupied
eligible positions could distinctly see
the flash of the guns. This was kept
up for nearly two hours, during which
it was estimated that there were no less
than five hundred discharges. From
information received yesterday morning
it appears that our artillery, including
a number of heavy siege guns, which
had been placed in position at and be
low Coggin's Point on Thursday, opened
a fierce cannonade during the night
upon the Federal fleet and McClellan's
camp on the opposite side of the river.
The enemy was evidently taken by surprise,
and all the lights of the fleet were
immediately extinguished, but this did
not prevent our gunners from preserving
their range, which they had taken
care to obtain with accuracy w"hile daylight
gave them an opportunity. A
feeble response was made by the gunboats
; but firing at random, and comparatively
ignorant of our'position, they
inflicted little damage. The fleet, on
the contrary, is supposed to have suffered
heavily. A great crashing was heard
in the river, and it is conjectured thai
collisions occurred among the vessels ir
1 their haste to get beyond the reach oi
' danger. At daylight yesterday mor1
ning the entire fleet had disappeared
1 and great commotion was visible in Mc
' Clellau's camp. The only casualties
1 reported on our side was caused by ar
" accident to one of the guns, by whicl
! one man was killed and six were wound
" ed?two of the number belonging t(
Page's battery, badly,
t Coggin's Point is in Prince Georg<
, county, about forty miles from Rich
- mond by the river route, but less thai
I thirty in a direct line. Observation:
r made on Wednesday revealed about orf<
- hundred and fifty Federal vessels a
t Harrison's Landing, nerrly opposite
r comprising vessels of every description
.i n , ? .
; among tnem some very nne sieamers.?
f On the same day four large transports
. crowded with troops, came up the river
1 The fleet was lying quietly at anchor
i and no unusual movement was notice*
- in the vicinity.
1 A member of Dabney's Artillery
1 who participated in the engagement
s arrived in this city last evening with th
e remains of Wm-. F. Dalton, of the sanr
1 battery, who was killed by a shell. Hi
- account of the affair agrees mainly wit!
J the foregoing statement, though he say
, that the enemy's fire was very heavy
r but owing to the darkness of the night
t not well directed. The scene on th
, opening of the cannonade is describe*
I as magnificent. TheTong line of Fed
- eral vessels drawn up near the shor
t opposite, with their glimmering lights
5 reminded the beholder of an illumina
- tion for some festive occasion. Our in
1 formant could tell very little of wha
occurred afterward, except in regard t<
the part sustained by the battery t<
. which he belongs. "Long Tom" firc<
fifteen rounds, some of which he felt 1
confident took effect upon-the enemy's i
fleet. Ther crashing of timber was :
heard distinctly amid the roar of can- i
non, yet the darkness of the night ren- <
dered it impossible to make any observations.
The casualties in Dabney's
company were three?W. F. Dalton, :
killed; Thomas Farquhar and Patrick 1
Graham, wounded. In Page's battery, :
H. Thacker and John Brooks, of Han- ,
over, were severely injured by the'premature
explosion of a gun, and four
others slightly wounded. If any fur- 1
ther casualties occurred along our ex- :
tended line, they have not yet been reported.
The orders were, as we are informed,
to fire a certain number of :
rounds at the enemy, and when this was 1
accomplished our force quietly withdrew, 1
and the engagement terminated. - .
FROM WINCHESTER.
By a gentleman who is. just from the j
Valley of Virginia, we learn mat on
Tuesday last the enemy was not on this ;
side of Winchester, their pickets being
posted on the outskirts of the town.?
Their ferce there has been recently in-' j
creased by the addition of some raw re- '
cruits, and probably numbers at this j
time about 2,"500 men. They have es- .
tablished very strict' non-intercourse J
with the region on this side; but reliable
accounts represent them as being in
a very alarmed state. They are said '
to have been reducing their stores by
sending them back towards the Potomac,
and holding themselves as ready
generally to stampede as soon as they
ear the tramp of Jackson's foot cavalry.
Besides this force the Yankees .
have about three hundred men at Front :
Royal.
The desertions from the Yankee force ;
are very numerous,' and constantly oc- 1
curring. "The men say they are tired
of the war. Many have disguised themselves
in citizen's clothes and taken 1
work of the farmers in that region. 1

The Complete Decimation op McClellan's
Army.?Despite the efforts
in the North to suppress everything
tending to show the losses and decimation
of McClellan's army, we find admissions
in some of their papers that
fully confess to the fearful slaughtering
of his army in the recent battles before
Richmond, and its complete decimation
? * ? ? iL. -n?:
Dy tne campaign on me reiuu&aw.?
For instance, what could more plainly
admit the losses of McClellan and the
shattered condition of his army than
the following paragraph from the Boston
Herald: The deadly miasmas oi
the Chickahominy swamp and the fearful
seven day's fight with the Confederates
have made wide gaps in the ranks
of McClellan's army, and as many
more are still enfeebled by disease, that
regiments now arc scarcely more that
companies in the number of men. '
There is still a feeling of confidence
in their General among some of the ofcers
and men, but many of them have
lost their faith in his prowess, and one
officer high in rank, remarked that i:
they had all the men in the world they
could not reach Richmond under Mc
Clellan's lead. Indeed, any hope o
reaching Richmond from that direc
tion before spring, and even with one
hundred thousand additional men, seem
ed not to be entertained.
The Newark (New Jersey) Journa
says:
I3 it not a singular circumstance
thai; while we can count to a man thi
loss sustained in the recent battles up
on the Peninsula by the Confederates
we know nothing concerning our owj
| losses ? Retreating from an advancing
j foe so rapidly that we are compelled t<
1 leave our dead and dying in the enemy';
hands, our troops are reported as know
ing to a fraction the number of mei
killed of the enemy. Have we am
kind or shell or Daii tnat, whenever 1
strikes down a Confederate, reports th<
fact in our camp ? If not, how is i
that we can obtain so soon the Confed
erate loss, while it has taken us monthi
to ascertain our own ? That the Con
federates lost heavily we can very wel
believe, but that a pursuing enenr
should lose more than the pursued is ai
absurdity. TVe saw a captain yester
day, who has returned wounded, whi
says our losses will foot up nearer forti
thousand than thirty, while the loss ii
stores, wagons, cannon, &c., will amoun
to several millions.
He says that our seige guns tba
were mounted on the entrenchment
were all left to fall into the hands o
the enemy. The general impression o
the officers of the army that he convers
ed with, is that an advance movemen
cannot take place for several months.
*?
Why is it that the Government holds
back information from the people 1 Do ;
they conceive this is the way to inspire
confidence ? * No other Government
would dare thus to trifle with the people.
Had jthe English Government
dared do so in the war of the Crimea,
there would have been danger of a popular
revolution. Why.; disguise, too,
the extent of the disaster-? The public .
mind, under such circumstances, imagines
from this portentous silence that it
is a great deal worse than it really is.
Nothing, surely, is gained by such a .
policy. *

Morgan's Return.
A portion of Col. John Morgan's
' command, consisting of the 1st Georgia
Rangers, returned to this city yesterday.
From Captain M. C. Blanchard,
quartermaster of the first Georgia cav1
airy, we have Obtained some interesting
particulars of the expedition.
CoL Morgan has returned in safety to
Tennessee, after ohe of the most daring
and successful raids into the heart of
an enemy's country recorded in the annals
of war. He. left here with about
1,000 brave spirits, a portion of whom
were armed, penetrated 2-50 miles into
a country in foil possession of the Federals?this
distance we give as the direct
line, of course the actual distance
travelled greatly exceed that.
He captured a doz^n towns and cities,
destroyed Federal military stores and
other property, and railroad bridges, in
all amounting to eight or terf millions
of dollars. He took perhaps over a
thousand prisoners, all of wnom he paroled.
At Cynthiana he encountered
a Federal force equal to his own, who
after a few hours' fight surrendered..
At Lebanon he took between two and
three thousand stand of arms, half which
he retained, and half destroyed. Here
also he burned half a million dollars'
worth of Federal army stores. He accomplished
all this, besides frightening
the whole Yankee nation out of its propriety,
with the loss of not more than
fifteen or twenty men killed in all his
engagements, and between thirty and
forty wounded, and has returned in triumDh
to Tennessee.
Where he is at present, and what will
be his next daring move, is, of course,
not a matter to be divulged, but it is
( certain that he and his brave rangers
cannot remain inactive.
History will hereafter record this expedition
as one of the most remarkably
daring and successful ever'made
on this continent. - . '
We shall endeavor to give further
particulars of the results of this raid,
as the Northern press styles it, in a future
issue.

From Courtland, Alabama, i
Richmond, August 1*
A special dispatch to the Mobilo Advertiser,
dated Tupelo, Mississippi, July
31, says: ThreeJFederal Captains and
Lieutenants, captured at Courtland,
Ala., arrived here to-night.
General Armstrong's official report
states that on the 25th ult., he attacked
the enemy at Courtland, Alabama, oh
the Memphis and Charleston railroad,
and took one hundred and thirty three
prisoners including eight commissioned
officers. The non-commissioned officers
and men were paroled.
The enemy's loss was three killed
and wounded. Ours less.
Gen. Armstrong also captured twelve
wagons, with horses attached, and equipments,
together with a large quantity
of arms.
The camp and garrison equippage of
four companies, a quantity of supplies,
including five hundred bushels of corn
in sacks, the depot, telegraph line,
bridge and tressel works were destroyed.
Gen. Armstrong defeated the enemy
at Town Creek, the same day taking
fourteen Federal prisoners.
Gen. Rosencrantz's division is at
Tuscumbia.. <

How our Troops Served the "Nigi
ger Sogers" ai Mdrereesboro.?a
i correspondent of the Atlanta iKtelli.
gencer, writing of the capture of Murfreesboro
by our forces, says:
Quite a number of negroes were hr
L the Yankee camp in uniform, only two
. of which, however, had the courage to
* fight. One of these shot off General
. Forrest's.hat; the other, after fighting
. for some time, came up and offered to
i surrender as a prisoner of war. They
' were both with tub others in uniform,
j very properly shot down. But the
i question is, should the shooting have
stopped here ? In other words, how
) shall this issue be met ? > '
White men found in arms with ne?
groes, by the laws of the Southern
i States, are regarded as insurrectionists,
f and when captured are treated as such
r ?hung, as John Brown was hung in
. Virginia. We can see no good reason
f why the law should not be enforced
. against the Lincolnites now invading
; our soil, stealing our property, and in
. inciting insurrection, as well as against
John Brown and his associates. The
I only difference between them is, that
Lincoln's officers are doing what John
5 Brown attempted to do. We believe it
e would be perfectly right and proper for
. Governor Brotfn to issue a proclama,
tion warning the Federals that our laws
i on this subject will be rigidly enforced,
y and if the white men are captured by
^ our troops, with armed negroes, fights
ing on the soil of Georgia, they will be

e Another Thieving iankee ?t,ot
t Exposed.?A young man, who gave
- the name of Wm. P. Lee, was brought
3 on yesterday from Elizabeth City, N.
- Carolina, in charge of Mr. Henry Cole1
man, charged with the serious crime of
j uttering and circulating counterfeits
1 tens and fives of the Confederate States
- notes, ones of the Corporation of Vir:>
ginia, and the twenty five cent issue of
/ the State of North Carolina. Above
i seven hundred" and fifty dollars of the,
t bogus issue was found on his person,
besides sixty dollars in bogus gold, and
t other important papers. The accused
s was taken before William F. Watson,
f Esq., Confederate States Commissionf
er, Franklin street, where an examina
tion was had. Among the witnesses
t who appeared was Gen. Winder, the
Military Commandant of the city.
The examination resulted in. Lee being
sent on to await his trial at the next 1
term of the Confederate Court. > \
Among the papers found on the ac- 1
cused was the following circular, which e
w^ebpy verbatim, issued by the enter- i
prising Yankee -financier, "S. C. Up- 1
ham, So. 40J Chesnut street, Philadel- ]
phia, to whom all orders may be ad- i
dressed." "Twenty dollar Confeder- \
ate Bonds !! I have this day issued, :
in facsimile, twenty dollar Confederate I
Bonds, making in all fifteen different
fac similes of rebel bonds, notes and
shinplasters, issued by me the past three
months." "Trade supplied at fifty i
cents per hundred, or four dollars per !
1,000, (thousand.) All orders by mail i
or express promptly executed.''
"All orders to be sent by mail'must i
be accompanied with eighteen' cents in
postage stamps, in additidn.to the above
prices, to. pre-pay postage on each i
hundred dollRJs ordered," "
"JN. JB.?jLn press, and will nave out .
during the week, the one hundred dol- .
lar rebel notes. Address-as above." <
L6e, who is himself an insignificant
looking individual, ahd who i&, doubt- j
less,the duple of others, was committed
to the Confederate State Prison." H;'
The counterfeit money is held in the ]
possession of Mr. Watson. Itris a good i
imitation ofthe original, as well executed
as Yankee ingenuity was capable of, r
and altogether likely to deceive the
unsuspecting. . . :
The whole case, taking it throughout^ ]
developes a deep laid schemeon the j
Sart of the thieving, \ counterfeiting :
forth, through individuals, with the ]
conivance of the Yankee Government, )
to undermine the Confederate currency, j
and the fact of the above circular being I
issued so publicly, shows that it is part
of the general plan.?Richmond- Ex- <

The Ferocity of Unionism.
: The world stands- aghast at- the f^ro- ,
cious, vindictive, cruel spirit of the i
Northern people towards the South.?? ,
Boiling over with malignant and furious .
passions, they violate all the rules both ]
of morality and civilization in their ex- ,
pressions of hatred and vengeance, .and-.
threats nnd. vows of punishment against
the rebels. A late .numbeh- of Andy
Johnson's Organ, the. Nashville 'Union,
speaks ai follows:
Loyalty will never consent, to hold a j
divided empire with treason and rebel- i
lion. It is a fearful vow which tb#American
people have taken; either top
subdue or exterminate the whole race of
rebels. Rebel leaders of Nashville and
Tennessee take Earning before-is too
late. Justice holds her naked sword i
above your heads , in no idle menace. If
it becomes necessary by your wicked
and insane obstinacy, the last traitor
who walks upon , the soil of the republic
shallbe cut off from the face of the/
earth. Mercy will not much longer
plead with you, and .rest ^ assured that
patriotism, now as resistless in its might
as a rushing avalanche,, will accept
nothing save unconditional submission,
and will crush to atoms every opposing
obstacle.

' Lithography.
We have taken a walk through Col.
Duncan's engraving establishment, and
find it one of the most complete that
could be conceived of. In fact, we are
assured that, in capacity and facilities
for transacting business, it is only.surpassed
by Lemercier's, in Paris. It is
gratifying to know that it will be permanently
located here,- as such an establishment
must necessarily.add to. the
prosperity of a city.' Col. Duncan Was
the first man in Kentucky,- though
Chairman of the Bell and Everett State
Committee, to make a;secession speech
after the election of Lincoln, and Was
the first man, also, * to lead a regiment
to Virginia?ten days'after thejfall of
Sumter'. For his defence'of South Carolina,
against the'stinging, sneering as-,
saults of that black guard, George D.
Prentice,, of the Louisville Joiurnal, he
should be warmly welcomed as a citizen
of this"'State, who has preferred principle
to disgraceful safety and wealth in
his former home. . .. f '
The establishment which, contending
against every, obstacle, he has finally
succeeded in fixing upon a ffrnji foundation,
consists of twenty-fou* presses at
present. Eight additional-printers ar
rived upon the Herald, who were sent
for in May to Liverpool, and six others
will shortly arrive from Paris, when the
number of presses at work will be thirty-eight.
The engravers and other persons
connected with the establishment
have been selected from the best shops
of the Old World, regardless of expense,
and the character and style of the work
to be done will give satisfaction to the,
most exacting. As our signal victory
near Richmond will probably lead, before
many months, to a restoration of
peace, every preparation is now being
made by Col. Duncan to procure all the
necessary supplies and materials to meet
the demand which may then arise from
the various States, banks, corporations,
&c., upon the resumption of business in
its old channels. With the whole force
working, 200,000 notes daily could be
struck off, so that prompt execution of
orders will necessarily follow.
Heretofore, nothing has been done
by him except for the Government, and
their wants will, of course, be first supplied.
When peace dispenses with that
necessity, the entire South can be at-;
tended to here.
rnmm?- - ? '
jggf* It appears to be pretty evident
that this war must soon become one waged
under the black flag. The recent
orders issued by tlie iancoin military
authorities, leave no other alternative.
They confiscate all property, they drive
off from their homes all families who
will not take the oath of allegiance; in
fact they respect none of the rules of
civilized warfare. That, under these
circumstances, they should be killed
by the Southern people in any and every
way and under all circumstances and
by all, means and appliances, is only
right and proper and natural. Retaliation
has become a necessity and a duty.
It alone can give any safety. * y\

1,3rd Regiment, S.-C; v., who fell mortally wounded,in a
gall ant, charge against the enemy, near Richmond, June
29th, and died July 1st, aged ?4 years.
* Mj. Holland Was one of the first-to respond to his country's
call; hj ber defence he wenp forth from his homeconscious
that he was In the right?urmod with his musket
apd Bible, never tieglecting eiljurx he commanded the love
and admiration orhls comrades both: as a sdldler and christian
gentleman.. The.beauties of his youths ill nature were
just ripening inio early manhood when he fell a martyr to
Southern Independence. O, why is it that the "Tree of
Liberty" will, nourish watered only with the life's blood of
her noblest sons ? God mokes it so. He claims h^> own
even from among our '.varriprs^and li: mercy ho takes them

I We are also called to mourn the loss ofouryoung friend,
Corp. J. WESLEY BOYD, another brave Carolinian, who
fell mortally wounded, near Richmond, 29thof Jane, and
died July 2nd, aged twenty-three years.
" J. W. B. was the eldest son of Capt-Jas. and Mrs. Margaret
Boyd, of Laurens District. He bad just finished bis
education under classical teachers at home, when this unholy
war broke out; be then, in answer to the first call,
volunteered in C'apt. II. L. McGowan's Co. P., 3rd Regi!
uient, and soon after left hir. home for Virginia, where his
( brave heart?never tlinching from duty?genial and kind
disposition, mndc for him many friends who now mourn his
I early fall, while he rests from tlie clash of arms in a soldier's
grave. He died in a noble cause, one in which he was
I proud to he engaged, and in his own language written to.a
friend, after, the engagement Ja which he feB, had commenccd,
we, his tViends, his dear parents, brothers and sisters,
should find consolation. "I would," said he, "that
our dear ones at home would be in less trouble and not
manifest so deep an anxiety for us, if we fall, we fall in a
noble act, and to exchange the din and storm of battle fbr
the sweet melodies of Heaven would be a happy change."
Though he had never joined any church, wa see here that
his heart was fixed on the tilings of God. Even In his dy
ing moments, he cxclahned, "I am glad tlqf I was given a
few moments to reflect on the things of eternity," he then,
satisfied that aJI was well with him, said, "I am willing ta
go, I have no fears," and thus his soul went 9m to meet
bis God. Farewell, dear ririend?
