A 1ATTLEFIEU) OPINION ABOUT THE
ELECTION.
r Below we give a paragraph from the letter of
a soldier who bas seen service in the Union
army, and who is now near Harper's Ferry.
The letter was written just after the first bat
tle of Antietarn, and undoubtedly, reflects the
sentiments of the great majority of the soldiers.
It deserves the careful consideration of every
loyal voter:
"I am m neb pleased to learn Incidentally
that Mr. Myers has been nominated for Con
gress. ' Don't let him be defeated ! The army
bas beard with feelings of great concern . that
there is danger of the "Peace Party" triumph
Ing fa New York and Pennsylvania. If this
s true,' in the name of all that is sacred, let
me ask, what are wo id the field for 7 If the
people of the country desire to succomb to the
traitors in arms against the government, they
cannot display It more effectually to Europe
and the world than by electing the candidates
of the democratic, or Vallandiogham stripe
If those who have remained at home do not
Intend to sustain as in battling for the Consti
tution and the Union nay, if they mean to
intuit na and give aid and comfort to the ene
my by electing men to Congress and other
positions of honor and trust who are notori
ously the enemies of the , Administration and
the wsr, we may as well lay down our arms
and return to the comforts of borne. We can
ednre the acorn and contempt of all Christen!
dom probably as well as they can.' . If It is
desired to increase the party in Congress who
will cluster around Valiandingham and bis
Confederates, and assist them in opposing the
Government, ' let the so called democratic,
candidates be elected. The army is watching
the Congressional canvass in New York and
Pennsylvania with painful Interest , On the
choice of thoroughly loyal men for the Nation
al Legislature depends in a great measure the
Issue of the war."

THE REBELS FINALLY REPULSED.
CoaiKTH, Mitrs., Oct. 5. Correspondence of
ino oi. Aiouis Democrat i On the morning of
ine aa oar outposts were attacked by the ene
my in force, about six miles nortbeast of Cor
IntC Before nine o'clock the engagement
became' general and fierce, and a sanguinary
battle was fought.
t Our men. ander Rosecrans, stood up man
fully, and fought with great coolness and bra
very. But regiment after regimeut, and bri
gade after brigade poured in upon us, and we
were forced slowly backwards, fighting despe
rately. i; - -: : ...... -.-
The rebels pushed forward with determined
obaticacy, and held every foot of advantage
ground. They outflanked our inferior force
on the left, and were attempting to get in oar
rear, We were obliged to fall back still fur
ther, to prevent this movement from being ac
complished. "The enemy were inside of oar breastworks,
pushing us backwards towards the town, when
darkness put an end to the fighting for that
day. During the day's fight our . loss was
heavy, but that of the enemy mast have large
ly exceeded ours. Three pieces of the 1st
Missouri battery were captured. : -
After having stood for so many hours before
the enemy's fire, tbe men were consumed by
thirst and subdued by the constant exertion.
Brigadier General Backleman fell, mortally
JtttQdetJ, at the bead of ' bu. Brigade. ., Geo-
Ostaaby. was shot ia the breast.
tmu eareoro nax'a naaiv
A haul o'clock on tha morning of the 4th, 1
the enemy opened briskly on tbe town-with
shot and ebell.- '." -!- :. -''
Our batteries replied and for sn hour or
more beavv cannonading was kept no. At
tbe expiration Of that time, two of the rebel;
runs bad been disabled, and shortly after aay
light their battery of 7 gun were captured:
!. A protenioos quietness soon occurred, anu.
it was evident that some movement was being
made by tbe enemy. ' - : r x-
SsJThe Western Sharpshooters, under Colonel
Burke, were ordered forward as skirmishers
to feel tbe enemy's position. At half-past
nine o'clock, they met the enemy within a
quarter of a mile of the advance of our line
of battle, advancing rapidly in heavy columns
upon the town. They immediately epened; a
murderous fire on the skirmishers, who imme
diately began to retire, returning the fire of
tbe enemy with effect.--"
The woods seemed alive with rebels, and it
appeared impossible for this gallant regiment
to escape destruction in theif retreat over
three quarters of a mile of open ground, which
intervened between them and our' temporary
works of defence.. . , .:
In a few moments the engagement became
general. Our batteries opend a destructive
fire on the exposed ranks of the rebrls, mowing
them down like grass.: The slaughter among
them was frightful. . But with unparalleled da
ring and recklessness they rushed impetuously
forward.
They charged oar works desperately, broke
onr lines of infantry, and captured a small
fortification, in which the battery of the First
Missouri was planted.
Our fertnne seemed to lie all lest.' "A tem
poraiy panic seized our men, and the rebels
once more marched into the streets of Corinth.
.New batteries opened upon them. Our
men, under the direction of a few courageous
officers, and stimulated by their example,
though thinned in ranks, fonght desperately.
The advance of tbe enemy was checked. They
wavered, and then fell back. Our . lost bat
tery we regained, and once more it hurled de
strnction into their ranks.'
: The day was saved, and the enemy in fall
retreat.-: .
Oar loss was comparatively . small daring
this tearful charge. That of the enemy was
folly twenfy to our one killed. " '
The enemy was commanded by Van Dorn,
Price and Villepiqne, with thir respectiv
army corps, nutntrcring 50,000 men. . .
It is impossible now to give a list of the
casualties.
Our proportion of officers killed is thought
to be large We lost but four takeo prisoners.
NATTTEE'S GUIDE IN TAKING FOOD.
Of all the evidences of creative wisdom that
are furnished by the structure of the human
system there is none more impressive than
the wonderful adaptation of the several organs
to each other. If a man wishes to threw a
stouesoasto hit any small obj-ct, he will
strive In vain to accomplish bis purpose by
considering the proper motion to give his hand,
and bis b-st course is to fix his eye upon the
object and then let his band adjust its motions
to the line of vision. It the nervous energies
are exhausted, the eyelids drop to shut out the
light and thus aid in bringing on that strange
state of sleep by which the vital powers are so
mysteriously restored. If by violent exercise
the slow fire that supplies heat to the system is
urged to too rapid combustion, the pores of the
skin fall open, and a copious perspiration car
ries off tbe superabundant caloric. When tbe
bag, that is placed in tbe center of the system to
bold tbe nourishment which is constantly , re
quired to keep the several organs in action, be
comes empty, a craving of hunger urges a re
newal of the supply. 'And the sensation of
thirst is the efficient means provided by Na
ture for continuing the proper quantity of that
liquid in which the various viscera are con
structed to operate. : . 7 .
. This adaptation of the sensations of hunger
and thirst to the need of the system is also
shown in the CMvelng for particular kinds of
food in particular circumstances. In the Arc
tic regions it is necessary that a large amount
of beat should be generated in the system,
and, consequently, a large supply of fuel niut
be taken into the stomach. Nature makes
provision for this need by causing the appetite
to crave enormous quantities of food. We re
cently published the account of an Esquimaux
belle who ate a tallow candle tor desert, aud
Dr. Kane while in the -Arctic regions found
that he and alibis men preferred Walrus blub
ber to any less greasy diet. In the tropics,
on the other hand, the system requires the
generation of little beat internally, and here
the appetite loaths all greasy food, and craves
siuipiy grains and fruito. - ' - ' ; .-
- A few years ago it was the universal prac
tice of physicians to deny fever patients a cup
of cold water to cool their tongues, but larger
experience and more careful observation bas
taught that here also the indications of nature
are more to be trnsted than the teachings of
the schools, and the inexpressibly grateful ad
ministering of ice has suppressed that cruel
deprivation from moisture by which many
helpless invalids have been tortured to death.
It Is true that the cravings of the appetite
are to be controlled by the lessons of experi
ence. There are fatal posions which have an
agreeable taete. We have intellects as well
as palates, and if experiment proves that any
agreeable food is injurious we must abstain
from its use. ' But until we have made tbe
trial, we can have no safer guide in the selec
tion of oar food and drink than the natural
denial d of our appetites.

THE OLD "FKEMCH BAEBEK ".
Wo shall never forget, and always" fee I proud
of tbe fact, that we knew so great an every
day Plato as Davy Crockett. Had the old
Colonel never uttered a better idea than that
everlasting good motto-' "Be sure you're right,
then go ahead !" hfs wisdom would stand a
pretty good wrestle with tide and time, be
fore his standing as a man of gen i in would
pass to oblivion bo washed out in Lethe's
waters. We remember bearing Colonel Crock
et relate, during a "speech," a short timo be
fore he lost bis life at the Biamo, Texas, a
little infcidetif of "his T being taken', e'p Ja New
Orleaus'one'nlght', by a gen d'arme lugged to
tbe calaboose, and kept there as an out-and-out
"hard case' not being able to find any
body, hardly, that knew him, and being total
ly unable to reconcile the chief of .police to
the fact that he was tbe identical Davy Crock
ett, or anybody else above par. "If you want
to find your level ad valorem, wake up some
moroiug, noon or night where nobody knows
you f " said , the Colonel, and if you ever
feel so essentially chawed up, raw, as I did
in the calaboose, the Lord pity you.", , ):
There was a "modern instance" cf Col.
Crockett's "wise saw," ;n the case of a cer
tain Philadelphia millionaire; who was in the
habit of carting himself out in a very ancient
and excessively shabby gig, which, in conse
quence of its utter ignorance of the stable
boy's brush, sponge or broom, and the hospi
talities the old concern nightly offered the
hens was not exactly the kind of equipage
calculated to win attention or marked res
pect for the owner and driver. - The old mil
lionsire, oue day in early October, took it
into his bead to ride out and see the country.
Taking an early start, the old gentleman and
bis old bob-tailed, frost-bitten-looking horse,
with the same old . shabby gig, about dusk
found themselves under the swinging sign of
a Pennsylvania Dutch tavern in the neighbor
hood of Reatling. As nobody bestirred to
see the traveller, he put his very otd-fasbion-ed
face and wig outside of the vehicle and
called : . , ' ';
. "Iloll! Hosc-l;ir! Landlord!" .
Leisurely stalking don n the steps, the Dutch
hostler advanced towards the queer and ques
tionable travelling equipage. '
"Vel, vot you want, ah J"
"Vot sal I vant ? ; I sal vant to put oup my
boss, viz zeztab'l, viz two pecks of oats and
plenty of hay, hos-e-lar."
; "Yaw,", was the laconic grunt of the hosier.
as he proceeded to unhitch old bald-face from
bis rigging. ;.
'Stop one little," said the traveller. "I
see 'tis very roosh like rain to-night ; put oup
my gig in ze ztab'I, too." :
'Bposh, tooner and blitzen, derraiu cannot
hurt your old gig 1" '
I pay you for vat you sal do for me j mind
vat I sal say, sair, it you please." ;- t
The hostler very surlily led the traveller's
weary old brute to the stable ; but, prior to
carrying out the orders of tho traveller, he
sought the landlord to know if it would pay to
put up the scabby old concern, end treat the
old horse to a real feed of hay and oats with
out making some inquiries into the financial
condition of the old Frenchman! '
, The landlord, with a country lawyer and a
neighbor farmer, were at the bar, one of those
old fashioned salted coops in a corner, pecu
liar to Pennsylvania, discussing the merits of
a lawsuit, seizure of tho property, etc., of a
deceased tiller of the soil in the vicinity. Bu
sily chatting and quaffing their toddy, the en
trance of the poor old traveller was scarcely
noticed, until he had divested himself of his
old, many caped cloak, and taken a seat in
tbe room. The' hostler having re-appeared,
and talked a little Dutch to tbe host, that
worthy turned to the traveller i
- "Good even'ns, thravell'r."
"Yes, aair,". pleasantly responded the
Frenchman, "a little."
. "You got a boss, eh ?" continued the land
lord. . i " i t- -ft
"Yes, sair; I vish ze hos e-Iar to give mine
hoss plenty to eat plenty bay, plenty oats,
plenty watair, sair." . r,
"Yaw," responded the landlord,-"den Ja
cob, give'm der oats, and der h y, and der
water ;" and with this brief direction to bis
subordinate the landlord turned away from
the way-worn traveller to resume his conver
sation with his more apparently influential
friends. The old Frenchman very patiently
waited until the discussion should cease, and
the landlord's ear should be disengaged, that
he might apprise of the fact that-travellers
had stomachs, and that of the old French gen
tleman was highly incensed by long delay, and
more particularly, by the odorous fumes of
roast fowls, bam and eggs. Sec, issuing from
the inner portion of the tavern. .
''Landlord, I vill take suppuir, if you please."
"Yaw ; alter dese gentlemau's shall eat der
suppers, den something will be prepared for
you.", . . ... i .' : ;
"Sair !" said the old Frenchman, firing up;
"I vill not valt for ze shentle'men ; I vant my
supper now, directly right away; I not vait
for nobody, sair." -..'u .
"If you no like 'em,' den you go off out
mine house," answered the old soar crout,
"you old barber !" , " ... ; i v
- "Bar-bairf gasped the old Frenchman, in
suppressed rage. " "Sair, I vill go nowhere
I till stay, here; so long, by gar, as as as I
please, sair.", ." . .... ... . . . .. .'
- "Are you aware, air," interposed tbe legs!
gentleman, "that you are rendering gross and
offensive, malicious and. libellous, scandalous
and burglarious ; language to' this gentleman,
in his own domicil, with malice, pretense and
forethought, and " 'H ' " .'-
"Poob ! poob ! pooh) ; for jou aair l't testily
replied tbe Frenchman. . ? , - , - ;2 .
s "Pooh t To me, sir t "Mt sir " bully inr
echoed Blsckstone. ' ! ' "J
Yes, ir pobh-r-poa f too geese, sair."
it were vain to try to depict tbe rage of wood.
ded pride tbe Insolence of a travelling barber
had stirred up In tbe rery 'fae of the man of
law, logic and legal lore. IJe swelled up,
blowed and 'strutted about like a miffed gob
ler in a barn-yard. : He tried to cool down his
rage!; but It bnrsted forth : f ' ;- '
"You you yon infernal old frog-eating,
soap-and lather, yob you you smoke-dried,
poor old wretch,' you, if it wasn't for pity's
sake', I'd .have" you taken up and. put in the
county jail for vagrancy, I would, you poverty-stricken
old rascal!"
"Jacob," bawled the landlord to his snb,
"bring out der old hoss again, before be did
die mjt.de crows jn mine, stable : now, you olo
' j "... A" t t It r i Z a '-
i fool; yon shall go vay ,'pout jyour bisbenish
mit nosin to eat nut yer hoss too !" said tbe
landlord." with' an evident rush 'of blood and
beer to his head. ... . t: -.
"Oh, very veil," patiently answered the
Frenchman, ."very veil, sir, I sal go but,'.'
shaking his finger very significantly at tbe
landlord and lawyer, "I com pack to-morrow
morning, I : pny dis propertee ; you, sir, sal
make de deed in my name I kick you out,
sair, (to the landlord.) and you (to the Uw.
yer.) I sal like de goose. Booh ! "
With this, the poor Frenchman started for
bis gig, aniii the "Haw, haw haw ! and b,
ha ! he, he !" of the landlord and lawyer.
"That's for you," said the Frenchman, as
he gave the surly Dutchman-hostler a real
half dollar, took the dirty ''ribbons" and
drove off.
Now the farmer, one of the three spectators
present, had quietly watched the proceedings,
and being gified with enough insight into hu
man nature to see something more'than an
"old French barber" In the person and man
ner of the traveller; and, moreover, being in
terested in tbe tavern property, followed the
Frenchman; overtaking him, be at once of
fered him the hospitalities or bis domicile,
not far distant, where the traveller passed a
most comfortable night, and when bis host
found out that be was entertaining no less a
pecuniary miracle of his time than Stephen
Girard. '
Early next morning old Stephy, in bis "old
and shabby gig, accompanied by-his enter
tainer, rode over to the owners of the tavern
property, and with them sought the lawyer,
the deeds were made out, the old Frenchman
drew on bis own bank for the thirteen thou
sand d llars, he gave the farmer a ten year's
lease upon the place, paid the lawyer for his
trouble, and as that worthy accompanied tho
millionare to the door, and was very obse
quiously bowing him out, old Stephy turned
around on the strps, and looking sharp with
one eye upon the lawyer, says he s
"Sa ir ! Pooh Pooh ! Booh .'" off he rode for
the tavern, where he and the landlord had a
haze, the landlord was notified to leave short
metre ; and being fully revenged for the insult
paid bU millions, old Stephen Girard, the
Philadelphia financier, rode back to where he
was beetter used for his money, and evidently
better satisfied than ever that money is migh
ty when brought to bear upon an object.
