OBITUARY.
"I want to die in the service of my country."
such were the words of a young soldier, Sergeant
CHARLES W. REDENBKHG, who fella victim to
that fell disease, typhoid fever, which he contracted'
in camp at Harper's Ferry. At the first call of his
country, he rushed to arms, andjoined Col. Small's
regiment, and with him passed through Baltimore
on the day of the fearful riot. On his return, he
joined what was Young's Kentucky Cavalry, now
the 3d Pennsylvania Cavalry, and served about two
or three months, when hie fattier got hie discharge,
he being a minor. tint the love of country was too
strong to allow him to remain at home when he was
needed In the Held ; so he againjolned the army lir
the 95th Pennsylvania Volunteers, (Col. Goeline's
Zouaves,) with whom he remained until last Christ
'
ioas when his discharge was once more procured,
that he might visit the bedside of his dying mother.
lie afteiwards joined the Independent Corps of En
gineers, Captain Wrigley, last August, with whom
he remained untll a few days before he died. He
was brought home but lived only a week. He was
every inch a soldier ; he was beloved by all who
knew him. He has lied his wish. "He died in the
service of his country." A. large circle of friends
mourn him. May he at the last day hear the wel
come—it Come, ye blessed of ray Father, inherit the
kingdom prepared fur you before the foundation of
the world," is the prayer of his friend, J. G, W. *
