A VOICE FRC'.I TH3 ARMY.
An officer of the Fortieth Ohio Volunteers,
in our Western army, Lieut. Charles Ent, born
and raised in Maryland, mid a Democrat of
the strictest sort, writes us follows to a friend
in this State :
"I have come to the conclusion that thosa
who say we have fought long enough, are men
who would have (ought on the other ide had
they lived south of the Ohio river.
Did our forefathers pay too high a price for
our freedom ; and will our children reproach
us fy saving thwir birfa-right even at the ex
pense of a hundred battles moro ? True, we
may be compelled to give over at last through
sheer exhaustion, but we have not done our
best. H e know there is a limit to the power
of the, rebellion ; we know, too, that its resour
ce! of men and money are much more nearly
exhausted than our own. Why should we give
rp when all for which we have struggled, if
attainable at all, is ttow so much nearer than
tr r.
Tn'k of peaco With whom shall wo treat
lor fence? Have we lost our memories ? Is any
lovii man so verdant and confiding as to sup
pose that the men who so treacherously began
this war by a conspiracy toverthrow a Gov
ernment they had sworn to protect such as
Davis, Floyd, Breckinridge, Yancey &Co
aie men with whom an honorable treaty can be
made or kept? They are absorbed with the
wild, ambi ious purpose of founding a great
slave empire on the ruins of American free
dom and civilization ; and they are sagacious
enough to sec that such scheme can only suc
ceed through the humiliation and subjection
1 the North. They denounce northern mas
ses as only fit to be their slaves; and some
prrpr.se to prove it, by a cowardly, servile
m:i render to the terms their haughtiness mav
dictate. It ti ere can be no peace but bv giv:
mg up this continent to be ruled and ridden
by tiiis gang .f filibusters and pirates, who
have disrr.; ted our National Union and made,
ttiemsi Ives the assassins of theircountrv, then ,
n j..d a riaiue, let the war rage on till we bo
all dead men.
One of three things: a peace, which binds
the North in chains to the victorious car of
the S-.uth ; or a peace which gives the South
tiroe !. establish and consolidate a recognized
nati.r.aljty preparatory to another war, in
n;cl; the North would be ten times more dis
h.u! arid distracted than now; or a peace"
c-Jiuing through the triumph of our arms, and
H e -establishment of Federal authority over
I the land. What then remains is, ve murt
fifli- cr do wane. It will take time; it will
l l enormously to our burdens ; it will ini
I""". great suffering; it will tax our uuited

it may drain the blood of your heart and mine,

2AILE0AD ACCrS-SVr.
On Monday morning the Express train on
the Penns7lvnU fiailroad, going west, en
countered the slide between Mexico and Per-
ryville, by which to.- locomotive, the baggage,
express and one passenger car were clearly
thrown over the i mharikmeut into the river and
s.ink in some ten feet 1 water. After the
locoaiutive bad ran 08 the track an I gone over
the bank into .the river, the baggage and ex
press cars ran past and fell over into the river
ahead of the locomotive whilst the first pas
senger car fell right on top of the locomo
tive, smashing it all to atoms. In the latter
car two passengers were killed and some sev
enteen injured, five of these severely. The
car was broken iDto small pieces, and it is
almost incredible to believe that so few of
the passengers were hurt. The engineer is
severely scalded, and will hardly survive.
The express messenger and baggage master,
who were supposed to be killed,.wero found
several hours after the accident standing in
an npright position in their cars in the river,
with the water tip to their chins, alive and
uninjured, but the goods and baggage had
wedged them in so completely, that they
could not extricate themselves, unless assis
tance nvas rendered. They were immediately
lelieved alter their discovery, and are doing
well. This is the third accident that haa oc
curred at this place within the past few years.
Tho embankment is very high, and it seems
almost impo.-ible to prevent landslides. No
person can be blamed, and the loss to the
company will be heavy.
IX0M THE POTOMAC.
A dispatch, dated Stafford, February 2ttth,
says that about noon on the 25th Stuart's reb
el cavalry made an attack on part of Averill's
division of cavalry, near llartwood Church.
Quite a skirmish en-tied resulting in tl?0 re
pulse of the rebels. Our loss in killed, wound
ed and missing is said to be. about 40. A reb
el captain and Lionteuant are. among their
killed.
On the night of the 2-jih, our picket cavalry
guard out from Centre-vide on the Chantilly
road, were all but one man captured by a reb
el force of atoiit 100 tin-n, after firing two
rounds. The officer commanding this picket
il! likely be dismissed fiora the service. sum
marily ,for permitting this surprise to succeed.
There; was a report current in Washington,
a few days since, that Jackson, with seme
force, had gone up the valley to Strasburg.
If S ), he will be attended to by our boys.
Copperheads-Origin of the Term-What it Means.
A correspondent of tho Cincinnati Gazette,
in anticipation of the curiosity of future con.
tricolors to "Notes and Queries," thus writes
from the very place claimed as the bni et
origo' of this specimen of political neology:
'Soon aft'er tho outbreak of the rebellion,
the Spi iti'tic!d (O.) Republic, published a
communication in which the writer noticed
the rattlesnake as the emblem 6f the South
Carolina rebels, and stated that the rattle
snake was a mote magnanimous reptile than
the copperhead snake, as the former gives no
tice before he strikes,, while the latter, besides
being more insidious, strikes you without giv
ing you any warning; and applied the term
copperheads to all the traitors and sympathi
zers with-the rebels in the free States. Oili
er papers soon adopted the term, and it has
become very general, but some people do not
see the point ; and in Indiana I seo some use
the term copperbottoms. but I cannot see the
point of copperbottoms. Copperheads is a
very appropriate name for our tree State reb
els at heart."

years 6 months and 9 days.
In the full vigor and hloom of youth, this
fair and friendly being was summoned hence
to that God who has said, '-Suffer little chil

Tim writer of this biief tiibute to her memo
ry, kn.w her well. His situation was such,
that be had every opportunity ot knowing her
disposition. Kind and generous was Louisa.
Ever ready" and willing to do a favor. Her
heart beat responsive to a soul that wished
well to every being on earth. Her generosity
knew no bounds, her kindness no limits.
"None Knew her but to love her,
None named Iier but to praise."
But that sweet silvery voice has fled this
lerrestial clime. That merry laugh, that so
often gladdened our heart, is hushed forever.
That marble brow and rosy chefe is no more.
Thy nymph-like form will never more, in this
world, greet our eye Tes, Louisa, thon art

i From Vicksbcrg. The dispatches received
; from Yicks'mirg seem to indicate the capture
, of the Queen ol the West, she having gone
tip Red River, where about a dozen rebel hoats
were known to be. As to tho manner of her
capture nothing definite is given, except
through rebel sources, which is stated thus :
'As the Queen was going op the river she
captured a small steamer, the pilot of which
was pressed to steer the Queen, and who up
on n-:aring the rebel batteries run the ram a
shore and jumped off, wheo a shot from a rebel
gun cut her steam pipe and disabled her the
Queen then drifting to the opposite shore
where her officers and crew made their es
cape." This is the substance of the story,
whether true or not. It is said that the
Vicksburg "cut off" has been completed.
that the gunboat have passed through, and
that the transports are preparing to follow.
A small gunboat fleet is reported to have
reached the l'azoo River via Union Lake,
which are playing mischief in the rear of the
rebels. It is also said that some boats have
reached Red River via Lake Providence.
ThefPresident has by proclamation called an
extraordinary session of the Senate to meet at
noon on the 4th of March, to receive and act
upon such communications as may be mads to
it on the part of the Executive. These main
ly, if not altogether, will include the civil and
military nominations.
It is said that the conflict of aufhfcrities in
Gen. Hunters department bve been satisfac
torily adjusted, and the best of feeling
now prevails among our troops.
