At the very hour when it seems he should have been

hour, in order to afford us one of those precious in

tual presence; just as the star struck from its
galaxy is missed and prized as the consequent dark
ness supervenes. Now that be has departed, let us
contemplate him in the capacity In which we knew
him well during the three east eventful yearn—"a
good soldier."
On the MI of July, 1861, the officers of the 28th
Regiment, Pennsylvania volunteers, were se orn
into the military service of the United Stases, Capt.
T. H. Elliott as First Lieutenant of Company H.
The classic chiseling of the young man's countess
Mance, thekeen apprehension of his intellect, and the
Industry and facility with which he handled the de
tails of We new sphere, soon discovered to tho saga
cious Colonel Geary a man well qualified to act as
his aid when such eervioes might be needed. That
time soon came, and well and faithfully were all ids
duties performed. Often have I wondered how one
brain could endure so much unremitting toll, Com-
Only extending from 5 A. M. until 12 - midnight,
and yet he was uniformly cheerful and happy,
As mienfficer carriages appeared to advantage.
Ills and lndicated tho'splrit of a
knight, syhile his countenance and bodily propor
tions were of the finest style. The outward appear
ance manifested the mind's mettle and the soul's
true nature. Upon making his acquaintance We
Were won to his favor, and felt the creation of high_
,expectations. There were no degraded spots on his
Soul, which might cast their shadows on his noble
exterior ; 80 that We could not be deceived by those
external amiabilities which sometimes conceal in-
Ward disorders. But in the ease of this young
friend our mind was left undisturbed by any mis
givings, and each new turn in events, and every
lest of prinCiple, confirmed-our first impression.
Being an officer, possessing authority, he never
forgot ',hat obedience and respect due to his supe
riors. Whatever the order, he never paused either
to debate its feasibility or the consequence of his
personal obedience thereto. This is noticeable, be
cause the raw officer and soldier Is prone to carry
the idea of democratic equality Into the army, and
hence arise chafings, until disciplide has taught him
the necessity of yielding to the control of those in
autholliy. It is a happy commingling of manliness and debility, which, at the first, qualifies one for
those duties. And when this combination is intact,
at once there Is shown a nativequalification for the
varied sPheres of active life, wtdch require a beauti
ful harmony of the moral and intellectual faculties.
The sphere that demands virtues will always ex
pose the opposite qualities, when virtues do not
epontaneOusiy flourish. It is said of nonillion tile
_XII. Emperor of Rome, that he began his reign
with the most flattering indicatiansoi magnanimity
and justice ; but these virtues belngbut the sporadic
fruit of mere temporary Convictions, soon gave
place to those detestable innate vices which, taking
occasion by his authority, mark him in history as a
most wicked and cruel tyrant.
When Captain Elliott was promoted to the As-
Instant Adjutant Generalship of Cab Division, he
was invested with authority which would tempt
many minds to arrogance and abusiveness. But
though possessed of a generous soldierly pride, yet
be was never either ;supercilious or haughty. Hia
orders were always delivered with a kind of genial
dignity that made their observance pleasant. No.
ger have I kilim =officer or man even took tin-
pleasantly upon the reception of any order ha de
livered.
When In his official capacity on the field, and In
the battle, his every movement indicated the
though he possessed the ardor of youth, he had ye
the coolness of a veteran.
Hla deportment to the men was such. as became a
true officer. An ingenuous nature cannot be se
duced to arrogance and tyranny over those who by
fortune are rendered subordinate, as are the non
commissioned officers and privates. But a widen
nature with no special restraint of personal fate
rest, will treat with neglect, and sometimes with
cruelty thoee who have been made subordinate by
the indiscriminating fortunes of war. Now, the pea
eit ion of A. A. G. was a kind of independency of all
the men, yet all received that regard that is due
every man, however low his station, for it was in the
disposition and education of the deceased to be ea
mane. There was a native bravery and nobleness
of soul that kept him above these faults of the weak
and vicious. lie was always kind and approacha
ble, and, so far as his authority extended. he endea
vored to accommodate the wants of the mon. Though
for a greater part of two years I saw him in his offi
cial capacity almost daily, yet neverdid I hear him
use harshness towards any soldier, on any occasion ;
and neither have I known him fail to secure hearty
respect and cheerful obedience to all his require
manta.
Contemplating him in the character of a gentle
man we will fi nd his just eulogium in his conduct;
I
and freely dare to contemplate him according to
those principles which are more Christian than con
ventional, and above the mere formal etiquette of
the day, which too often aims to accord outward re
spect, while yet deceit and corruption rule within,
for indeed oven that suavity and politeness some
times put on with a winning grace is but a mere
temporary engraftiture for personal advantage.
There are souls, however, whose ingerousness tri
umphs over faults and weaknesses, and, like a sun
beam in the mist, push their gentle light until the
veil is dissipated, and the outward world is made
radiant. No man can be truly a gentleman who
fails to consider all his fellows, in regard to their
manhood and their natural rights, his equals. air.
Justice Talfourd says : "Gentleman is a term which
dues not apply_to any station, but to the mind and
the feelings in. every station. The man of rank
who deports himself with dignity and can
dor ; the tradesman who discharges the duty of
life with honor tend integrity, are alike entitled to it,
nay, the humblest artisan who ful fi ls the obliga
tions cast upon him with virtue and with honor, Is
more entitled to the name of gentleman than the
man who could indulge in offensive and ribald re
"is a regard for the
in a ( Ik n : ,
high r however eark h o igh
fa h g i e s s nt ia le t ua le a n n .
feelings and station of others. We have a. piaotlcal
instance 1n the case of tog SubjecO to-day. I am
glad to be enabled to say that I never heard a vul
gar or profane word from his lips, which shows that
be was not a servant to gush habits or that he was
too thoroughly fraught with the spirit of a gentle
man to afflict those whose profession is at variance
with such practices.
1 come finally to speak of his soldierly qualities of
courage and gallantry. It was his fortune to be
associated with officers and men of whom no army,
ancient or modern, could but be' proud. To have
been connected with the 28th and 'nth Regiments,
P. V., and the 2d division, 12th Corps, commanded
as it was, and with Its glorious deeds, was enough
to reflect honor upon any man ; and an officer who
crtnld maintain his elevation among so many gallant
spirits well deserves the encomiums of his fellows.
Through three years of terrible battles they have
reared their monuments, in the valley of the She
nandoah, at Antietam, Fredericksburg, Chancel
lorsville,Gettysburg, Chickamauga, and at Atlanta,
and our departed companion was present to assist to
bring forth the capstone of their achievements. Tam
mire that these officers agree that the office of an
adjutant general demands a combination of sol
dierly virtues, and a counterpoise of variant tem
pers, that Is quite rare indeed. How well Captain
Elliott (the War Department should have enabled
US to have said at least colonel) perform!' his du
ties, let the fact that a sagacious and veteran gene
rid retained him so long, and entrusted so much to
his discretion and courage, attest. His highest
eulogium is in his deeds, and no better commentary
of these can bo furnished than that sail event by
which we are bereft of his aid and presence.
On the 20th July, having returned from the
skirmish line, he reported to Gen. Geary that the
rebels were advancing in his Immediate front.
Scarcely had the announcement been made, when
the enemy sent a volley and pierced his .horse,
which being about to fall, the Captain attempted to
dismount, when he was struck In the neck by a
bullet, and in a moment his spirit departed, leaving
ue only the decaying medium through which his
noble soul was wont to hold converse with us.
The 30E.5 of such young men, especially at this
time of peril, is a national bereavement. Though
one among so many thousands seems but little, yet
the virtues of some men make them as an host.
When they are gone, a link is lost, and the golden
chain is contracted, sometimes leaving too few
links adequately to encircle and sustain great pub
lic Interests. When Warren fell upon Bunker Hill,
the nation mourned because, though but one, he was
of those choice spirits whose virtues and powers
made him as many, and constituted those elements
of greatness which even a nation cannot afford to
lose. What our young friend might have accom
plished in coming years, had Providence spared
him, it is not for us to declare, yet we are sure that
this eulogium would have been verified.
Officers and soldiers of the 28th and 29th ! Death
is a familiar power to you, who have passed through
fields of carnage, yet yourtumanity leads you espe
cially to respect the life of the true and the
valiant, and your eyes unused to weep even at
Death's awful knock, yet coming again among the
scenes and influences of domestic affliction, and re.
Membering that It le a friend, a soldier.friend, to
whose ashes you bid a final adieu, your hearts do
'feel the sadness of this final separation. Right
sadly did I feel when the news of his death reached
me. Our mutual regard, our common lot of hard
ship and of trial, our marches through heat and cold,
sunshine and storm, our camp life, and the days of
stubborn battle, rolled across my mind like the
solemn echo of the storm as it moves amid the
clouds now for ever past. And I could remember
only cordial regards from the departed and your
selves.
And where are all our comrades to-day I Row
many I could name who to-day sleep on the far-off
battle-fields, whose memories refresh our spirit Hoe
the far echoings of solemn music •
Life at best, is but short and filled with cares.
But its duties well and faithfully performed will
extract a radiance from our Characters which shall
live in sweetness after us; shall establish such
principles as may, through Christ, be a sure foun
dation for whatever ordeal of the world to come.
With melting hearts we contemplate the sorrow
of a father as he resigns his eldest family repro.
sentstive to the dust, and at the same time sees his
star of earthly hopes forever shrouded. Those joy
tut hopes, that bright career, are at once out off by
a Power that sooner or later will master us all, and
demonstrate to us how frail are earthly supports,
and bow essential to an Immortal being are those
virtues which embalm themselves in the memory of
mankind, exert a happy influence here, and prepare
us for those noble spheres into whose mansions
death and sorrow never enter.
It is* happy for us that those virtues of the de
parted which most endear them to us at the same
time resign ne the more peacefully to their loss.
Some three years since the mother closed her
eyes on earth that she might be spared a mother's
agony in standing by the corpse of her son this day.
She withdrew her benign rays from earth that sho
might spread them over a more glorious hemisphere.
We trust that now she Is accompanied by a new
Satellite, who, from the clouds of battle, on the 29th
of - July, rose to accompany her on her celestial
orbit. Ere long another,and another—a father, a
child, a brother, a sister—and the volume is closed!
But whether these shall arise into that same orbit
depends upon the affinities of virtue and religion they
may establish in this present world. Therefore,
my friends, as you love the departed and regard
your own wellbeing, give earnest heed to these
things, and be ' good acildiers of Jesus Christ."
And may the God of Armies be the perpetual de
fence of the "White Stars" and their commandant,
through Christ. Amen.
PE/LADBLPHIA, August 3 : 1864.
A Trip in a Fire Balloon.
M. Eugene Godard made an ascent at Crethorne
Gardens, London, July 20th, in an enormous bal
loon of his own construction, which he styles "The
Eagle." In this machine M. Godard discards gas,
and goes back to the ordinary original Diontgoltier
balloon, which is commonly known as a "lire bal
loon." Last year DI. Nadar's " Giant " balloon was
a subject of international interest, but the "Eagle"
far surpasses it In size, and the following statistics
may not be uninteresting : It is 117 ft. Tin. in height,
9bft. Stn. in circumference, Mil. 61n. superficial,
30,0tOft. in area, 2,0051 b. in weight, 498,556 cubic con
tents. In the centre of the car is an 18ft. Move, in
cluding the chimney, 9801 b. In weight ; three cylin
ders, three inches apart from each other, in
vented by M. Godard with a view to countera ct the
effects M the radiated heat upon the occupants of
the oar. Inside the fine is a metal colander to inter
cept sparks. The combustible employed is rye straw
cleaned from the cars and compressed into blocks.
The total weightof the balloon (Including the grap
ling iron cords 400 lbs., two supplementary pumps
160 Es., and combustible 500 Jim) Is 4.620 its. The
inflation only took 48 minutes ; and M. Godard says
that under favarable ciroumstances he can fill and
start in less than half an hour. At a quarter to
eight the whole fabric stood up amongst the trees
and poles of the ground, and the various ropes that
held it to the earth were out away one by one. M.
Godard ran rapidly round the solid wicker car, shout
ing orders through a speaking trumpet with pardon
able excitability. Two gentlem en took their places in
the car, Mr. Prewse,and an officer in the Guards, and
a third heavy military gentleman leaped in, much
against M. Godard's wishes. Many were left behind
who had purchased seats, but who had doubts at the
eleventh hour. The final rope was cut away, and the
huge ball, half the height of the monument, rolled
rather than rope toward the east aide of the Gardens.
Here it met a firm lofty pole to whichisome of Bide
taining ropes bad been attached, and this pole was
bent creaking on to the roof of a theatrical Swiss
cottage, which broke like a piece of ornamental
pastry. For a few seconds the balloon seemed to re
turn to the Gardener and to descend towards
the grass, while the stokers were seen des
perately throwing the Small trusses of com
pressed straw into the month of the furnace.
Di. Godard raved through ids trumpet, and
the excitement caused several tattiest° faint, and a
largeportion of the crowd to rush panic-stricken
towards the hotel. In less than a minute, however,
the Eagle had regained her buoyancy. One of M.
Godard's companions gives the following account of
the voyage " Let the reader Imagine that he has
been riding on the engine of an express train ; let
him then conceive that this engine, with the fire
roaring in the furnace, has suddenly leapt Into
the air, and he will get some faint notion of the
situation. There was not monk wind, and the bal
loon, slowly rising, took its course to the south
eastward of London. At times, It maned quite
becalmed, and during these intervals of quiet, those
who looked out over the panorama or London
owned that the sight was well worth the risk. The
red light•glared out and was seen afar ,• the heat was
almost painful, but neither amongst Englishmen
nor Frenchmen was a murmur heard, asstea4lll"„
one after one, the trossee of straw were passed into
the fire. At no time did the balloon ascend much
above half a mile, and at no time did that ugly
roaring crackling clamor cease I But M. Godard
wa e•bland and brave . ; his fellow-countrymen wore
courteous and courageous, and the Englishmen
held their tongues. At length, after crossing
and•recroselng the river, it was determined to de
scend. Three times already had the balloon passed
over the Thames, and when it was resolved to
alight, M. Godard was over the Isle of Dogs.
He had fixed his eye, however, upon the East
Greenwich marshes as an open space in which
the descent could be safely attempted. Very nice
ty and skilfully calculated wore his mariamvree.
Traversing the Thames at an exceedingly low ele
vation, the balloon just grounded upon the shore,
within a dozen yards of the water. Distinctly to
understand the fierce excitement of the next three ,
minutes, it should be borne in mind that the fire '
was still roaring merrily away ; that the machinery, I
so admirable for its special purposes, would have
caused sad havoc had there been anything like a
general upset; and that at this particular moment
six men could exert very little control over a bal
loon capable Of containing four hundred and
sixty thousand cubic feet• of air. Touching the
shore, the balloon tore away, the big canvas flapping,
the bright fire burning ; whilst right in front rose a
atone embankment. The shocks were rough, and
had the travellers been novices In this particular
method of locomotion, we might now .
, have some
- b
awkward casualties to rotate . Just efore each
bump, however, the men made a little leap, and
thus baulked its force, as a Cricketer to catch a bell
draws hack his hand instead of protruding it. Still,
with all these precautions, it was a nasty drive ;
it occupied perhaps a minute—it seemed half an
hour—and there was a strong inclination to cheer
when the threatening stones were pleased. .0n now
into a potato field ; another rise ; a wild tendency
to leap at a chimney ; a strong 4 exhibition , of re
straint ,in the shape of a hundred sensible English
men tugging away at the ropes, and obeying the
orders that were given—and the whole thing was
over." •

Captain Martin and the 611114
To the Editor el The Press:
Sin : In your lone of yesterday I noticed an ern
e`e in reference to the vetting aside of the verdlet of
the general court martial in the ease of Military
Storekeeper G. W. Martin, by Major Gnu. Couch.
I nen glad that such has been the result, for I be
lieve Capt. Martin to be a perfectly conscientious
gentleman and officer. The witnesses in the case
ware to be had at any moment, and yet they wore
not called upon. Certain it is that 110 case would
be sHowed to go before a jury in any one of our
courts of law on written affidavits, when the wit
nesses could be got, except in cases where the wit
ness required was on his deatb•bed ; and certain It
was that none of the witnesses in this CaO3 were in
such a condition, they all, or moat of them, being
employed at the U. S. Arsenal.
Why the officers nom rnoting the court should have
Tendered a verdict on such testimony.l cannot see.
Gen. Conch was the much of a lawyer to allow such
a thing to pass by without its necessary rebuke,
viz.: "We act was Illegal, and of great injustice to
the accused."
Certain it is Wet Captain Martin has hail a hot
time of it during the two years he has held the po
sition of 11.8. Storekeeper—no less than four courts
of Inquiry, and one general court marthl—from all
of which he has come out with nnblemiatted ohm
meter, and untarnished as a public officer.
I am, Fir, very respectfully, yours,
RISTION.

General Hooker was serenaded on Thursday
night, in Washington. and he thanked the crowd for
the compliment, but declaring that enough Speeches
bad been made to put down the rebellion long since.
He favored, be said, in their plane, bay,onets and
bullets. He Informed a man in the crowd, who
wanted he should appear more to the nubile view
of those listening to him, that if his inquirer was a
soldier, be might have occasion to meet him a hun
dred times yet on the battlefield daring this war.
He then retired. It IS stated that General Sher
man himself has relieved General Hooker from his
command in Georgia.
A-correspondent writing from Sherman's army
says: "All the army offioers wlaons•l have heard
speak 'of Wed allude to him as a man of very Om
aitainments, but of undoubted courage. His
classmates, of whom there are several here, allude
to him as a West Pointer bettor versed In the mys
teries of bluff' and 'draw' than in tactics and en
gineering. General Miller, who knew Hood inti
mately in California, thinks his appointment a
great advantage gained by us, and in view of the
purposes of Sherman, Hood's appointment look
encouraging.
half-past one A. M, on the morning of the
Ist instant; he officers of the United States steamer
Massasoit assembled in a body and serenaded their
captain, Lieutenant Commander E. Barrett, with
a full chorus brass band, at his residence In Boston.
Lieutenant Commander Barrett made his appear
ance, and was received with great. applause. He
made a few remarks, regretting that the fortunes
of war thus willed it. He called upon them always
to maintain the A111.1!0 of the country, and never al
low the glory of the good old flag to be sallied.
He then invited them to, and haying'parteiren of
refreshments, the band played several more national
and other popular airs.
By command of Brigadier General I. N. Pal
mer, the field work at the north end of the railroad
' bridge over the Trent river, - North Carolina, is

and the field work on the right bank of the Neuse
river, North Carolina, known as " Fort Union," is
designated "Fort Dutton," in memory of the late
Arthur H. Dutton, colonel of the 21st Connecticut
Volunteer Infantry, and captain of the corps of en
gineers United States army, both killed in battle.
Manager Lumley, in his "Reminiscences of the
Opera," has the following story of Lola Montez:
"There is still anotherevont remaining, in the eh'
cumstances connected with which there is something
so strangely ludicrous that. I can scarcelylook batik
upon it without a smile. This event was the ap
pearance as a denseuse of the late oelebrated Lola
mentor. It is not my IntentlOn to rake up the
world-wide stdries of this strange and fascinating
woman. not long since passed from the world. Per
haps it will be sufficient -to say frankly that I was
in this instance fairly 'taken in.'
"A noble lord (afterwards closely connected with
the Foreign Office) had • introduced the lady to my
notice as the daughter of a celebrated Spanish pa
triot and martyr, representing her merits as a
dancer in so strong a light that her appearance'
was granted. The afterwards great Lola was re
ceived with rapture. Public, press, opera-goers, all
gave way to such immoderate fits of enthusiasm that
It is difficult at this day to account for the strange
infatuation which pervaded all ranks. True, the so
called Senora was singularly beautiful ; her style
was new,
and there was something piquant and pro
vocative In the surprise created.
" Yet she had no pretensions to the title of dem
*ewe in any sense. To speak the plain truth, she
was but the ver eat novice in her art, which she had
never studied as an art at all. Ido not intend by
this plain statement to declare that the French and
Italian schools of dancing are alone to be endured
by spectators of the highest class ; fur thera.is art in
the Spanish school of dancing, as well as In the
others. Hut this spurious Spanish lady had no real
knowledge of that which he professed. The whole
affair was an imposture ; and on the very Wight of
her first appearance the truth exploded. Doubts
already created were confirmed, and the true
Spaniards indignantly refused to' acknowledge the
Impostor as an exponent of their national dance.
On the discovery of the truth, I declined to allow
the English adventuress, for such she was, another
appearance on my boards.
"And certain It is that I acted wisely, though I
had to exercise the virtue of self denial, as there is
little doubt, from the reception she had met with on
the first night, that the lovely woman would have
draWn large sums of money to my treasury, for
some 'time at least. In spite of the expo4nlations
of the 'friends' of the lady—in spite of the depre
catory letters in which she earnestly denied her
English origin, and boldly asserted that she was a
true Lola, a genuine Monte:'—in spite oven of
the desire expressed in high places to witness her
strange performance, I remained inflexible, and the
false danseuse was never again allowed to exhibit
,her handsome person and her spurious graces at Her
Majesty's TheatreP
A writer, corresponding with the Aurora (Cal.)
Times, thus speaks of Marshal, who first discovered
gold in California: "I find J. W. Marshal, the die-.
coverer of gold at this plate in 1848, still here. He
IS moving along with as much seeming satisfaction
and unconcern for the balm* of the human family
as he did when he first dispovered the shining parti
• ' '
cles that led to excitement of the whole civilized
world. I have often advocated, and still believe,
that Mr. Marshal should be largely rewarded by
Government for making the dlsoovery of gold In
California. I will continue to hope that he may be
properly rewarded."

Notwithstanding the frequent murders and out
rages committed undetected In English railway car
riages, there IS not the least attempt to remedy the
evils. The English would rather ride in close,
locked•up compartments and be murdered than
adopt the American plan of equality and be safe.

English do both.

LITERARY.
In a late work on Norway it Is stated that
American Illustrated paiers are found in the ellSiets
of the Norwegians, and are constantly studied by
them. Indeed, the author of the work, Mr. 0.
Elton, adds: "The rage felt here for information
about America is surprising ; and I have often been
puzzled In my geography before some Norsemen dis
coursing glibly of the most outeoftne-world States
and Territories."
The word "humbug," first generally used by

pondent of the Cincinnati comwercira, in giving a
description of Gen. Rousseau's great raid, details
the following
On thelath ult. the raiders arrived at Ashville,
having had the - pleasure of skirmishing most of the
way. The Ashville Vidette, a rebel sheet's( no mean
circulation in Alabama, was just ready to go to
press. ,The boys In blue took possession of the
office, made the rebel devils unlock the forms, when
the editorial column was abstracted, ands now
one inserted in Its stead. The first editorial, as pre
pared by the Yankees, announced "the arrival of
distinguished gentlemen, Major General Rousseau
and staff," but it added that it "was very uncertain
bow long they would stay."
The second editorial was a most withering satire
on Jeff Davis and his Cabinet, denouncing them all
ns repudiators, scoundrels, devils, and malefactors,
the oil - scouring of Goths and Vandals. Thea fol
lowed a 'brief summary of recent Union victories.
Persuaded by forest of arms, the rebel printers sul
lenly made up the forms again, and then they
worked off the paper as usual. As the Yankee edi
torials were placed under the rebel editor's name, it
is thought he will be arrested for publishing "trea
sonable matter" before he can possible make an ea
pianation, for his paper was circulated and his office
demolished!
