A GRAND UNION DEMONSTRATION
AND DINNER
'We bad the pleasure of being pres
ent at the great dinner given Captain
March's company, at Mooresville,
West township, on Wednesday last,
the 7th inst. The dinner was prepa
red by the patriotic ladies of West, Bar
red and Jackson townships—and such
a dinner—we get hungry every time
we think of it. The like never was
seen in the county, and we doubt
whether.it could be beat in any other
county. The table was set with two
hundred and fifty plates it was sur
rounded by hungry men almost the
third time, leaving enough of good
things to feed all the hungry snakes
in the three townships. The ladies,
God bless them, were there in all their
glory. The meeting was organized
in the Academy building by cAlling
Gums CHANEY, Esq., to the Chair,
and appointing Jacob Smith, Thomas
Wilson, Robt. Moore, John Hagans,
David Miller, Patrick .Gettys, John
Oaks, ftenry MeMonigal, John Moore,
John Hewitt, Samuel Mosser, Henry
Davis, Mitchell Anderson and John
Love, Esq., Vice Presidents; and T.
F. Love, Henry 'gee, James Oaks and
Wm. Davis, Secretaries. The meeting
was ably and eloquently addressed by
Rev. Moorehead, Rev. Patterson and
S. T. Brown, Esq.,whcn Capt. March's
Company, the officers of the 'meting,
and • igvited guests adjourned to dinner.
But the• meeting went on, and was
next addressed by a jitranger, a refu
gee from the South, whogave his hear
ers agood idea Of what the bogus Con
federacy was like. John Williamson,
Esqr., was the next speaker, and he
made one of the most eloquent and
spicy speeches of the campaign, and
at the conclusion of which the meeting
adjourned in perfect harmony with
three cheers for the ladies, the speak
ers, and Andy G. Curtin. Those who
were present at this outpouring of the
patriotism of the surrounding country
will not soon forget the good time they
had. We know we will not soon for
get the patriotic ladies and the main•
moth dinner. The like of it we want
to hear of soon again, and we promise
to be on hand, Wonky to see another
evidence that the hearts of the people
allies° flit townships are full of that
vire patriotism and love fur the sol
dier that must have an influence in
saving our country from being over
run by traitors and thieves. Snakes
live long in the neighborhood of
such a. patriotic people.
A. BoQurr.—Master Barry 'Auden
Jacobs, on .Monday last, presented us
with a boquet of very handsome dah
lias's, etc., for which he has our thanks.

Theaaptists on the State of the Country
At the Philadelphia Baptist Associ
ation, which adjourned on Thursday
evening, the following resolutions, re
specting the state of the country, were
unanimously adopted.:
Resolved, That this association, com
prising within its bounds nearly fifteen
thousand members of the adult popu
lation of the loyal State of Pennsylva
nia, hereby reaffirm its previous decla
rations of loyalty to the Government
and Constitution of the United States.
-Resolved, That in view of the exig
ences of the republic, on account of
the gigantic rebellion of a portion of
its citizens against the integrity of the
national life, it is the duty of all loyal
citizens to display a readiness to make
any and every sacrifice, of fortune, of
party predilections, and of life itself,
upon the altar of our country's good.
-Resolved, That the development of
events during the progress of this re
bellion has confirmed all our previous
convictions, that it has its mainspring
mid origin in the necessities and de
inandsOf the slave power that has, for
so many years, controlled 'the affairs
of the nation.
_Resolved, That we are still further
convinced that the providence of God
is teaching us that the institution of
slavery, in this nation, is an ulcer in
the body politic, and that since the
great object of the Government, in its
resort to arms, is the perpetuity and
glory of our national being, it is a no-
Comity forced upon the Government to
conduct - - the war with a view to the
eradication of this evil from every
form of the national life.
peso/vedi Tbitt in our judgment the
recent sueeettses of the national arms
Wit the progoilt wanieg , proportions of
the rebellion are practical endorsmonts
of God upon those measures which the
GovernineiithaS already adopted. for
the suppression of the rebellion.
Resolved; That it . is the duty of all
Christian patriots to uphold the hands
of the Government in the present cri..
Os of affairs by their prayers, their
services, and their votes.
Resolved, That, with gratitude to
God, we recognize the fact that the
Constitution of the United States of
America, as it is, is adapted todihe en
franchised condition of all men, and
that when all men in this nation shall
be free, the people of that day will
need to look elsewhere than to the
Constitution•drawn by our fathers in
order to learn that the stars of this
Union-ever shone' upon the stripes of
a slave.
Resolved, That the universal preva
lence of freedom in this country will
be the - climax of that series of events
in our history which indicate that God
bas appointed this nation to be the
birbingor and model of tbg world's
eivjlization.
Moderate Views in Georgia.
Hon. Joshua Hill, who is now a can
didate for Governor in Georgia in op
position to Governor Brown, has writ
ten a campaign letter expressing his
views, from which we take the Pillow
ing extracts, giving the opinions of one
who resisted Secession to the last, and
now belongs to the moderate party at
the South, and who is suspected by the
violent Secessionists of Union procliv
ities :
"Since my resignation of my seat as
a member of the Congress of the Uni
ted States, which occurred immediately
upon the withdrawal of my colleagues,
I have taken no active part in polities.
I had often expressed my honest con
victions, that the destruction of the
Union would be followed by a long
and bloody war, disastrous beyond
precedent in its results to every sec
tion ; and that the idea of dissolving
the Union with the hope of reconstruct
ing it on a basis more permanent and
protective of the rights of the slave
States, was fallacious and absurd. I
compared the effort to accomplish
such an impossibility, to the folly of
taking the most delicate glass and
crushing it to atoms in the vain hope
of collecting the scattered fragments,
and, by reuniting them, making the
shattered vessel more comely and du
rable that it was before. It was a
strange delusion, without which the
Union could not have been broken. I
believed what I said of the impossibil
ity of reconstruction. Time and events
have deepened these convictions.
"I felt little comfort in the flippant
assurances of sanguine orators, 'that
tho Yankees could not fight if they
would, and would not if they could.'=.
I knew the time was when they had
fought, and I believed that, by collision
with our brave troops, they would
learn to do it again. In' lynx, as in
politics, it iS unwise to underrate 3-our
adversary.
"The war, with all its afflictive train
of suffering, privation and death, has
served to eradicate all idea of recon
struction, even with those who made
it the basis of their arguments in fitvor
bf disunion. I always regarded it as
impossible, except by the success of
the Northern arms, and then only the
Union in name, and not the free Gov
ernment of our fathers. I want no
such Union as that, and will not accept
it.. The best argument in favor of
Disunion, and the one most relied on
by its advocates, was apprehension for
the security of our slave property. If
it was not then in danger, it is in ex
treme peril now.
"Occupying the poSition I did, I did
not think it becoming me to attempt
to outstrip the leaders of the revolution
in their efforts to stimulate the youth
of the country to volunteer. I made
no inflammalory appeals to their pa
triotism, but I denied them not my . aid
and my sympathy in their trying ad
venture. I was impressed with the
idea that example was superior to any
power of words, and since I declined
to volunteer, I did not feel willing to
urge others to do,what I failed to do
myself."
Eventful History of a Soldier Woman

.31rs. isrances antes isa_cta.y- ton- iI ed
at the provost marshal's office in this
city, on Thursday, with letters from
officers, to procure a pass to her home
in Minnesota. Mrs. Clayton enlisted
as a private, with her husband, in a
Minnesota regiment, some two years
since. She was in Rosecrans' army,
and did full duty as a soldier for near
ly a year before her sex was discover
ed. While in the army, the better to
conceal her sex, she learned to drink,
smoke, chew, and swear with the best'
of worst of the soldiers. She stood I
guard, went on picket duty, in rain
and storm, and fought on the field
with the rest, and was considered a
good fighting Man.
At the battle of Stone river, while
making a charge her husband was in
stantly- killed by a hall, just five paces
in front of her, in the front rank. She
charged over his body with the rear
line, driving the rebels with the bayo
net, but was soon struck with a ball in
the hip, and conveyed to the hospital.
On recovering sufficiently to travel,
she was discharged on the 3d of Janu
ary last, and sent North. On the way
between Nashville and Louisville, a
guerilla party attacked the train, and
robbed her of her papers, money, &C.
After reaching home and recovering
from her wounds, Mrs. Clayton started
for the army again, to recover the pa
pers belonging to her husband; •but
was turned buck at Louisville and or
dered home. By mistake her pass
carried her to Kalamazoo instead of
Chicago, and she was compelled to ap
ply to the provost marshal there, who
sent her through this way.
She is a very tall, masculinelooking
woman; bronzed - by exposure to the
weather, and attracted universal at
tention by her masculine stride in
walking, erect and soldierly carriage,
and generally outre appearance. Some
soldiers, following her rather too fam
iliarly, Thursday.evening, she drew a
revolver, - and promptly scattered the
crowd. She was recognized as an old
acquaintance by the keeper of an eat
ing house on_ Monroe street, who knew
her before her marriage, and knew of
her disappearance when her husband
enlisted, and_ who provided Shelter for
her Thursday night.
4%. Boy REPPEZED TO DEATLI. , --JOhn

Hunting Conscripts and I' tigitivo,s
with Bloodhounds•
(From Or )leniplifs Bulletin
A friend last week—a refugee from
Attain county, Mississippi—obliged
us with some of his'experience of the
past year in Central Mississippi. Will
it be credited that, in this nineteenth
century, in ft country where, three
years ago, people were free, such
crimes can be perpetrated under the
name of the law, and yet the indigna
tion of the civilized world would not
be heaped upon the' government that
sanctions them ? Yet the statements
come from men whose honor is unim
peachable, whose word has never been
broken, whose faithful oaths are reg
istered in heaven. The enforcement
of the odious,
accursed, thrice-hateful
conscription law is the prolific source
of all these horrors. A scapegrace
styled Lieutenant Davis, a recruiting
officer for Bragg's division, is at the
head of forty cavalry, part of a large
mounted detachment, detached for
the saute purpose, is harassing the
comity- of Attain. and contiguous coun
ties, and hunting down the unfortu
nate subjects of the conscription law
with bloodhounds—actually with blood
hounds. Our informant had a neph
ew who was conscripted. Upon at
tempting to escape he was pursued
and captured by the aid of blood
hounds. An incident relating to the
use of dogs occurred in Attain county.
A lady whose husband and son were
in the army, was drying some beef
upon a scaffold 'when she heard the
baying of a pack of hounds. Deter
mined to have her revenge, even
though she lost her meat, she sprin
kled strychnine over it. The dogs
came up. Their owners threw over
the scaffold that the dogs might feed.
Thirteen of them died on the spot.
The riders in their wrath, burned
the woman's house and property, and
left her there with the dead dogs.
Tho conscript who aro hiding in the
swamps of Pearl river adopt the finesse
of the remaining negroes, in putting
spirits of turpentine, onions; rod pep
per, etc., in their shoes to conceal
the scent from the dogs.
AN Exrtorr—A correspondent of
the Chicago Tribune writes from Co
rinth, October Ist: A feat vs:as lately
accomplished by some Union Alabama
soldiers, which I think has not been
excelled during the war, and is wor
thy of record. On the 14th of last
month Lieut. Tramel and ton men of
the Ist Alabama Federal Cavalry
started on foot from Glendale, some
ton miles from here, where the regi•
went is stationed, and proceeded into
the center of Alabama, and, after an
absence of two weeks, they reached
camp in safety, bringing with them
one hundred and ten recruits for their
regiment, as well as five prisoners—
one a lieutenant—and a rebel mail as
trophies. The lieutenant captured was
engaged in conscripting, and says he
thinks that the Confederacy is about
played out, if ten men can travel all
through.

Once more the sod has been remov
ed from the green hillside to make
room for the form of a loved friend
and sister, who has moved so long in
our midst. One year ago she bid fair
for as long life as any of us. But that
dread disease, consumption, had been
at work, and his labors have resulted
in the death of one who was beloved
and esteemed by all who know her,
for her gentle and winning manners,
her amiability, and love for follow-bc
iags. - Like her Saviour, she loved and
felt for all; and her christian life assures
us there was nothing lacking to insure
her a home with the blessed, at God's
right hand ; while the calm and peace
ful smile upon her countenance, as she
lay cold in death, plainly indicated
that she feared not the king of terrors,
and smiled at his approach. Sorrow
is stamped upon the brow of many
for the loss of a sister and true friend;
but as all is for the best, we submit to
the, will of God, and say, "Thy - will be
done." Farewell, dear friend ; thy
sickness and sufferings all are past, and
thou bast gone to chant the praises of
God, in chorus with the angels of Hea
ven. Farewell, till we meet above.
