THURSDAY, AUGUST 29, 1861.
(s5Thc excellent speech of the Hon. Jo
eeph Holt, a noble son of noble "Old Ken
tucky,' which we publish this week, is we
worth the attention of our readers. We do
not say this apologetically, for we feel that
nothing1 we could publisli coiilil prove more
interesting', or advocate more thoroughly sen
tuncnts so truelv consonant with that true
spirit of love for the Union, which animate;
everv honest northern heart. The address,
in its rhetorical finish, is a model of beauty
and, in its argument, will stand unanswered
and unanswerable so long as the English lan
guago is spoken. Mr. Holt, previous to the
lasUcleclion, was a warm friend and suppor
ter of John C. Breckenridge, and is one of the
very few of the supporters of that arch-trai
tor who, from the first, have given an unhes
ilalingand an unyielding suppor t to the efforts
of Mr. Lincoln's administration to put down
. this moat wicked rebellion, which now threa
5 tens to destroy the country.
Sudden Death.
Under the obituary head the reader wil
find the announcement of the death of Mrs
Annie C. Iluslon, relict of the late Col. John
Huston, of Stroud township. From what we
can learn it appears that this estimable lady
left her home, in a 'carriage on Saturday last,
to visit her son-iu-law, and in getting out o
the carriage, on arriving at her destination,
wos so seriously injured as to survive her ar-
riVal-but a short time. The best medical as
balance was summoned to her aid, but the
arrow of death sped more ra"pidly than the
physicians skill, and few short moments saw
her ryes closed on earth forever. She leaves
a large circle of relatives and friends to
mourn her sudden departure.

Fr'end Schoch: The weather at our U

health and are in good fighting spirits, with
plenty of ball cartridges to give the trailers
, n good reception. The Boston Artillery, with
- I heir rifled cannon and fully a rmed for the field,
: are encamped with us. They are a noble bo--'dy'of
men and officers.
- Last evening Captain Christian Hofieditz,
ofthe city of Reading-, and his 1st Lieuten

and took supper with me. 1 was very much

- highly esteemed 'friend in days gone bv in
gallant Monroe county. He too, like your
-'humble servant, leaves his wife and children
to go to the battle field for our bleeding coun
try, and defend its noble flag. The Captain
commands a company of Cavalry from Read
ing one hundred and one men from nallant

Wo have by way of Cincinnati a report
that Col. Tyler'a forces, at Summerville,
in tho Kanawha Valley, havo been sur
rounded and defeated by the Rebels, un
der tho command of the notorious traitor
Floyd. No particulars are giveo, and
implicit reliance oanuot be placed on the
report. The Southern papers, especially
those of Richmond, have for eoine time
boen predicting stirring news from Wes
tern Virginia, and The Richmond Enqui
rer of tho 17th says that Gen. Floyd'.
command was then ten miles nest of Lew
isburg, from which point he proposed to
march on the enemy in a few days. It is
believed that Col. Tyler's force number

OF GREEN VALLEY.
Lay her. gently to her rest
Fold her pale hands upon her breast
From her brow,
(O, how cold and marble Fair,)
Softly part the auburn hair;
Look upon her now
As a weary child she lies,
With the quiet dreamless eyes,
O'er which the lashes darkly sweep,
And on her lip the quiet smile
The soul's adieu to earthly strife
And on her face the deep repose
We never saw in life.
Peaceful be her rest, and deep
Let Ada sleep.
No tears for her she needs them not;
Along life's drear and toilsome road
Firm her womanly footsteps trode,
Striving to bear its weary lot.
With such a pride upon her brow,
With such a pain within her heart
The firmness of the womanly will
Veiling the secret smart.
O. il is well the strife is o'er.
That thus so peacefully she lies,
Unheeding now the bitter words,
The cold unpitying eyes.
Fold her mantle o'er her breast
Peaceful be her sleep and blest
Let Ada rest.
No sigh to breathe above her bier,
No tecr to stain her marble brow,
Only with tender pitying love,
Only with faith that looks above,
We gaze upon her now.
No thought of toil and suffering past
Rut joy to think the task is done,
The heavy cross at last laid down,
The crown of glory won,
O, bear her gently to her rest
O, gently heap the flowery sod,
And leave her body to the dust,
Her spirit to her God.

It happens to be the cae that Gen. Fre-

in the enlistmeut of a oon-iderablc num
faction, who are now io St. Loui. and
are beio as-igaed to various positions of

The War Element of the World.
Europe has to-day under orms four
millions of soldiers! Aud although tbe
programme that was to have made this a
battle Summer has boen entirely changed,
even in peace it seems as though the ma
jor portion of the social forces were dis-
lined to bo absorbed in purely destruc
tive purposes. Europe is covered witb
citadels and armed to the teeth. Every
day new engiuca of destruction are inven
ted. Fleets are multiplied; ships are
covered with armor; floating citadels and
batteries are built to move on the water.
England, for the first time in her history,
has girt borsclf round witb fortresses.
Germany, the philosophic Germany Swit
zerland, the neutral and pacific, are per
petually drilling their citizens iu the ex
ercise of arms. As for Franco, sho ban.
within the lat ten years, doubled her
war taxes, as England has, duriog the
paaie period, doubled hers. France bor
rows untold millions for war; and Eng
land does the eanio. Austria borrows,
liusnia borrows, Piedmont borrows all
borrow for war even the Turk ivants to
borrow. Amid all this, f uppressed mut
terings of pent-up thunder rumble round
the horizons of the European nations.
Eebel Plan of the Campaign.
Nearly two aaontbs ago tho best of ev
idence wa9 laid before the War Depart
ment that the plan ot Jeu. Daris was to
await tbe return of tbe seventy-five thou
sand three months' men from tbe federal
army, meantime concentrating his own
forces; and then, before new recruits could
take tbeir places, to strike when and
i. . riM .t
wncrc we were weaKei. x uis was me
plan of McCulloch in Missouri; aud he
managed it so well that he accumulated
three times our foroe at or near Spring
Geld. For several days yet to come he
will outnumber the federal army in South
ern Missouri; but the tide is rapidly turn-
in, aud, after the first of next October.
the rebels will be outnumbered at every
point where a collision shall occur. I his
at least, is the opinion of our lost ciillita
ry authorities.

W
e have heard an aiuu-inr incident of
tho riot of the 19th of April, io Balti
more. A determined Uuion man, while
tho city was in a perfect uproor, and tbe
Secession rowdies were tearing down ev
ery Uuion flag they could see flying, car
ried tho Stars and Strij.es in his hand,
unwihiDg that there should be any doubt
as to his sentiment-; but, having been en
countered by a crowd, and overcome by
numbers, his flag was taken from him,
and torn to pieces. He then went aud
found a painter, and induced him to
ascend to the roof of his house, wl paint
the olar Spangled Banner -upon his chim
ney. There was no pulling down such a
flag; and so he remained uoder the Stars
and Stripes until more peaceful timee en
abled him again to "fliuc out his bunt
