A CGNDENbED SKETCH OF TUE LIFE, CHARACTER AND SERVICES 103,21 STATESMAN, SOLDIER AND PATRIOT• CIVIL CAREER. John W. Geary, born December 20, 1819, near Mount. Pleasant, Westmoreland county, (Pennsylvania); son of Richard and Margaret White Geary, among the most respected and in fluential families of Western Pennsylvania.— Received a classical education at Jefferson Col lege, Canonsburg, Washington codanty, Pa.— Studies law, and is- admitted to the Bar; be- corLes also an eminent civil engineer, the foun dation of his subsequent distinguished, military career. Grows up a steady, industrious youth, walking habitually in the paths of industry,jus tice and love of truth. January 22,1819, is ap pointed by President Polk. postmaster of San Francisco, and mail agent for the Pacific coast. Owing to the undeveloped condition of Califor nia, and the great tide of emigration thither ward, one of the most arduous and responsible trusts then in the gift of the Government. On his way to California is detained a month at Panama, waiting tor the steamer Oregon.— Spends hat month, not in lolling on couches 04 1 ease and indolence,. hitt in organizing at Pans,. ma Masonic and Odd Fellowlodges, which prove agencies of relief to thousands of emigrant passengers, who are sick with the Panama fe ver and in destitute circumstances. April Ist, 1849, arrives . at San Francisco, in the steamer Oregon, after being two mofiths on the way.— August 1, 1819,four months after his arrival,by an ittianimmet vote is chosen by the people,first "Alcade" of San Francisca; also, Judge of the "first instance," Offices derived from . the Mexi- can form of Government, having civil, criminal and admiralty jurisdiction; combining, in fact, all legislative, executive and judicial functions —offices of the first magnitude, and requiring rare administrative abilities. Close of the year 1549, is re elected by the people to theie impor tant offices, the, vote standing: For Glary, 12,- 106! Against Geary,'4l Under his adminis tration, the assessed value of real estate in San Francisco, rises from $55,000 to FIVE MILLI, ors, and of 2,500 civil and criminal cases, adju dicated by him, appeals are taken in not more than twelve. and not one is revessed. May 1, 1850, is chosen, under the new char ter, First Mayor of San rancisco, in which of fice he perfects the inchoate municipal govern ment, quells riots, establishes law and order, checks extravagance, pustains the city's credit, and organizes a most efficient voluntary Fire Department, (himself the head,) by whose agency, on several occasions, the city is saved from threatened total destruction. While May or of San Francisco, by reason of his command ing influence, exerted on the side of right, se cures the adoption of a Free-Seite Constitution for California, :Ir:l:thus naves the State, forever, from the blighting curse of slavery. , Passes through the "Golden Gate" of the Western El Doradl, Aril 1, 1849. Returns to Pennsyl vania, April 1,1852, liming in less than three years tichiev6d more for the good of his country, and of mankind, than most men achieve in a life of three-Score and ten. July 1, 1856, iivithout any solicitation on his part, and without his knowledge, by reason solely of his eminent fitness for the post, is ap pointed by President Pierce, Governor of Kan sas, then regarded, by common consent, owing to the distracted conditi, is of the Territory, end the failure of three other Governors to secure peace, the most important trust under the (.-; ov ernment. Is unanimously confirmed by the Senate, without the usual reference to a com mittee. September 9, 1856, reaches Fort Leav enworth ; demands ‘4 - quhl and exact justiee to all," as the cardinal principle of his administra ! thy:. Succeeds in restoring Law and Order, althqugh often threatened with assassination.— Wins golden opinions from all men, except the Border Ruffians and their allies. Predicts the Rebellion that followed, if speedy measures, are not taken to check it. March .1, 1857, seeing that Pierce; and his Secretary of War, Jefferson Davis, are resolved, at the cannon's mouth, to force upon the people of Kansas a slave constitution,and that Buchan an 'resolved to do the same, rather than lend himself to any such infamy, he indignantly resigns the office of Governor of Kansas, and returns to Pennsylvania, to private life. When he shall assume the office of Governor of Penn sylvania, he will barn been virtually and actu ally Governor in .h,ee States, viz.: California, Kansas and Pennsylvania, besides Military Governor of a city, a distinction enjoyed by but few men. MILITARY CAREER. • April, 184 G, whilst employed as Civil Engi neer and Suporintendentof the Alleghany Por tage Railroad, hostilities begin with Mexico, when he,. at once, espouses the cause of his country, and recruits in Cambria county, Pa.. a company called "The American. Highland ers," Second Regt. Pa. Vol's. Is unanimously elected by the men, (not appointed by the Gov crument,) Lieutenant Colonel of the regiment. Joins army of Gen. Scott at Vera Cruz. The regiment, under the lead of its brave command , er, greatly distinguishes itself in the battles of La Hoya, Cerro Gordo, Chapultepec,. and Ga. rita De Belina, as also in storming the defences of the Capital. Is elected Colonel of the Reg., (after the fall of Colonel Roberts,) the first itary . commission ever received by an Ameri can, in the proud City of the Moutezumas.— Peace having been wrung from Mexico, at the cannon's mouth, he returns 'o his quiet home in Pennsylvania, laden with hard-won and richly-deserved honoi-s. April 12. 1861, treason opens her batteries on 1 ort Sumpter. Leaves' his rural home in Westmoreland county, 'at the tap of the first drum, and receives from President Lincoln a commission to raise a regitnent. Is resolved, weal or woe betide, to vindicate the' honor of the old flag, sustain the Government;and main taib the Union established by the blood and valor of his knd orr fathers.. S'ixtii six compa nies apply for permission to join his regiment, RegiMent is raised to the standard of sixteen companies, or 1,700 men. Is known as the celebrated "Knapp's Ba i , n."

In the battle of Watthatchie,loses his eldest son,Captain Edward R. Geary, a noble youth, only nineteen years of age, who falls, pierced by a rebeWmilAtt, through the forehead, at his father's side. Is now joined to Sherman's forces in the campaign to Atlanta. Participates actively in the battles of Mill Creek, Snake Gap, Resaca, New Hope Church, PLie Hill, Muddy Creek, Nose's Creek, Kolb's farm, Kenesaw,Marietta, Peachtree Creek, and the siege of Atlanta, the whole constituting a main ..0118 battle of one hundred days. . .

January 12, 1865, in grateful recognition of his distinguished services; and because of his "eminent fitness to command and promptness to executelis promoted to the rank of a Major- General.

A Moving Story The following graphic sketch of th"e les of moving is told by one of our exchanges and presents a picture that will be ert,ily recog nized by every man who has had the misfor tune to be a bird of travel : "Yesterday was the first of May, and every body, except those who were so fortunate as to own their houses—thereby being liable at any time to be sent to State Prison for taxes—mo ed. We moved. • Our readers ought to have seen the scene. Our folks commenced pulling up and tearing down the traps a week ago. Most of the "plunder" was thrown into a heap and lumped off into loads, with a total disregard of ordinary rules. The paragoric and hive syrup bottles were packed in our new hat— . one of Mackenzie'slat• est and best. The castor bottles were placed in our other boots, it being so handy to carry them by the loops. The stopper came out of one . contain ing tomato catsup, and the top of the mustard concern was broken off. That is the best seasoned pair of boots we ever bad. The other family insisted on coming into the house before we got out. And so the things gotrmixed up some. But we got all that belonged to us, at least. The carman swore because the cook stove was so heavy, and one snid."d—d it' he'd have Ulf we offered it to him." Didn't offer it to him, but offered both of them a drink out of a quarter of a barrel of ale, nearly full, standing in the kitchen. They took it,—very kindly, but it made 'em thirsty all the forenoon. Guess the spigot must have got out of the barrel on the road, for we couldn't squeeze half a glass out last night. . Finally got moved. Thought we'd have our supper before we tackled the bead steads and back room stove.. Better half, with patch of sea on her nose, said supper was ready. She was mad, because, when she asked us to bring home a keg of soft soap, we proposed an amendment, substituting .a keg of powder and slow match. Sat COW:i at the table and took a cup of tea hat was handed to us. Thought it tasted strangely, and prospected the bo.toin of the cup. Found the brimstone end of three broken matches. Didn't drink any more tea. Came near breaking one of our teeth on a carpet tack in the butter, and thought we,d had supper enough. Commenced playing putting up beadstends. It's fun when you like it. But people don't like it, mostly. None of the blasted rails would fit. Got the wrong ones into the wrong posts, and couldn't screw them up. Marked them all with a pencil before we took them down, and thought we'd know how they went together again ; but somebody wiped the marks all out. And there we are. Better half suggested that one at our time of ' life ought to have more patience, and gave it as her opinion that we couldn't swear the bed. 'steads together. Found we couldn't. Finally got 'em up—four of 'em—and com menced putting the cords on. Cord's broke and we had to tie them togeth- er. The knots wouldn't slip around the pegs, and we couldn't draw the rope tight. More remarks of the children's mother on the , übject of profanity. Didn't pay any attention to her, and thus succeeded in getting through with the job. We then went down, and "harnessed', the stove. The legs all fell out when we tried to lift it on the zinc, but we got it into position at last. Two lengths and one elbow of the pipe miss• • ing. Finally found the elbow in the bureau draw er, and the two lengths rolled Up in the parlor carpet. Got a hatchet and stick of wood and com• menced pounding the pipe together. Knocked a chunk out of one ofour knucklen, had got the elbow wrong end up, Had to take it all apart and change it.— Commenced pounding again, but couldn't make it jibe. Pounded more. , The more we pounded the more it wouldn't fit, and we thdught we'd give it up. • Expressed our opinion in relation to stove• pipes in general and this one in particular, and made some allusion to the original inventor of .this kind of furniture. . . . Went to the corner grocery and got "zwei la. ger ;" felt refreshed and resumed the attack on the pipe. Pound out that what ailed it was that we hadn't pounded it enough. Remedied the d :feet, and the job was done. Stove smoked beautifully. Got wife to tie rags around three of our fin gers and one thumb, - and thoiight we'd sit down and have a smoke. Found meerschaum after a while, and discoyered amber mputh-piece broken. . .• _ Pot the tobacco can, but on ascertaining that the salt•cellar had been emptied., into it, made up our mind that we wouldn't smoke. We concluded we'd better go ft!, bed, and started to pink our way through the mass or things piled up and scattered about. Stumbled over the long rockers .of a, chair and barked our shin. Returned no answer to an interrogatory, why we didn't break our neck ;" repeated "Now I lay me," and turned in. . Having a strong constitution, which enables us to• bear a • good deal of sleep, and always paying ti strict attention to our sleeping, didn't know anything till morning. Went down stairs and found wife getting breakfast with tears in her eyes. Told us she • "was daceived in the house" if she'd "known what it was, she would never have moved into it," and that she,d never be able to "settle" in it. This settled es and decanin,g to partake of the frugal morning meal which had been provided —we remembered the supper—we took our de parture, promising to call in the early part of the week, when things had been "put to rights " And we mean to go. Little Willie. One sultry day in June, 1865, as I was pass ing through the wardsof the Berry House Hos pital, in Wilmington, my attention was attract• ed by a pair of bright eyes, which followed me from cot to cot with a hungry eagerness. Sup posing it was .the lemonade, which I was dis tributing according to the direction of the nurs es; which attracted him, I inquired of the mitt who had charge of him if he could have Sorge. He replied in the affirmative, and I placed the glass to his burping lips. He was a Mere boy, only fifteen. His dark eyes and curly brown hair contrasted fearfully with his pale cheeks, while the thin white hand, with which he clasp ed the glass, told sadly of wasting asease. I longed to speak words of cheer to the poor boy, but could not stop then, i.s there were many feverish men waiting .or the icy draught I was carrying.' The ayes haunted me ; ns I went from one-to another,'l could nothe p g:ancing back at Willie's cot; and every Hine I met the same entreating look which first pt tracted my attention. • My duties called me to 'another part of the hospital ; and, as I was passing him to go mit, be called out, in a fkint voice, "Lady,dear lady, please give me a kiss—just one kiss before you go, My mother always kissed me." I kissed . him, with tears in my eyes—for who could•rie fuse such a request from a dying child, far away from every friend and relatiVe. Ire cleis ed his eyes, murmuring; "You are n good 'Iv!). manthank you. It' you will sit down Mid hold my hand I think I can sleep ; • I am so tired." The nurses were wry kind, and. Ole surgeons remarkably so ; but disease had un dermined the frail structure, and we daily watched our Willie sinking to-the grave. • One day I entered the ward, and found dial the nurse had placed a chair by his cot for nu.• as usual ; liiit, he was sleeping, and I request ed the nurse not to awaken him. "0, miss," said, the man, "he cries and takes on so dread fully when he wakes and finds . that you 'hay passed through, that I have promised always tp wake lain." 'Fo r do this was no easy matter': the eyes opened' Slowly, and shut again. leaned down, and whispered, "Willie I Willie Ir "Yes; .yes," he replied, "I was afraid they would not wake me, and I should not see you.r HO . then began to cry like a grieved : child, and begged me not to go North until he was well enough to go with me. "Promise," said the nurse, "for he will not live many days more.! "No, NVillie, I will nut go until you are better ' Itaid; and with the kiss he never failed to ask for, left him. The next morning the doctor came to me and said, "Willie is gone." The coffin was placed upon two chairs, in the dispensary, and we stood and gazed long upon the marble face and folded white hands —white as the Cape Jasmine blossoms which they. clasped. Then I learned his history as he had told it. A man of wealth had been drafted, and had bought the boy as a subr stitute of a heartless step-father. Ile had ner', er carried a gun. Once from under his moth er's watchful care, the overgrown boy had sunk beneath the hardships of camp lite, and the spirit,,pure as when it first entered the clay casket, returned to God who gave it. 0 Wil; lie those were not tears to be despised which fell upon thy coffin—soldier's' tears for a coin rade lost. And though upon the well.contested field von never fought in deadly combat, the good fight of faith has been yours; and now, while your example lives in our hearts below; you wear an undying wreath of victory in our Father's kingdom. Our work in this hospital was more satisfac tory than in any other with which I was con nected. There were only three wees, and ire: visited and talked with each patient every of ternoon. A surgeon or the ward.maSter went' with us to assist .in giving out the lemonade which we always took with us. We also cur ried a portfolio, and took from the men outlines, of the letters they wished us to write. Some of .hese were very original and amusing, and I egret. that I did not preserve them. HOSPITAL SCENES. The inconvenience, suffering, and unpleasant consequences of ignorance of military regola tons, endured by women, who went to take care of sons, husbands, or brothers, sick in southern hospitals, might form an interesting. though sad chapter in the history of our great war, and I give you. some instances. • At the sunset of a sultry day, I sat by m window, writing to the "friends at home," when my door was thrown unceremoniously open, and a lady entered, exclaiming, "What shall I do ?" I knew from her face that she was a quiet, respectable, though uncultivated woman, and that nothing but the desperateness of her situation could have forced her to this abrupt entrance and question. I gave her a chair, and listened to her story, Her husband had been so severely wounded in the leg es to matte amputation necessary; and she had left home with it hundred dol. Lars, which she had borrowed from a friend, and had come all, the .way to Nashville. She bad never travelled before, and had been troubled so much in gettirig passes and transportation, that her nervous system seemed quite exhausted: - Boarding; and lodging were so dear that she found it impossilile to pay for them in the city, while hospital regulations would not allow her to 'stay there.. The surgeon said it world be weeks bolero her husband would be able to go home. "I cannot. stay— and if Igo back, he will diet What shall I do? What ' , hall Ido ?" she cried, wringing her hands, and sobbing bitterly. I proposed to, walk into the ward and see her husband, while I thought what I could do for her. To my -surprise she took me to' the cot of one of my "special cases." "Is it „ your wife that has come ?" I exclaimed. "Yes, it's my toile," he replied; while his eyes filled with a happy, peaceful light. "0 Hattie, I have dreamed so often of your coming, that I am &aid I shall vale and find—But tm l yeti ; aro , ~, (SIIIIB ER 39 here—ain't you, Hattie?"
