GODEY.—The March number of this j
beautiful and excellsnt Magazine is on our
desk. Each succeeding number bids fair |
to rival its predecessor. The March num- t
ber is replete with interest. The Spring i
Fashion Plates are beautiful, and the en- j
gravings handsome and instructive.
Our Veterans.
Our brave, veteran soldiers of the 102 d ,
and other regiments who have reenlisted
and have been with us for a short time on
furlough, are about to return to their re- j
spcctive commands and regiments. We j
hope that their visit lias been a pleasant i
one to themselves and friends. The gen- 1
tlemanly deportment and good behavior of j
«ur brave defenders is a higlf commenda
tion in their favor. Their presence has
acted like a charm in encouraging volun
teering; manyof their young friends have j
• enlisted and are now on their way to the :
tented field, and if need be to meet the
enemy on the field of strife. These brave
veterans have stood like a wall of fire be
tween us and danger; they have shielded
and protected us from then rath and fury of
ihosc who have been and are still endeavor- ;
ing to destroy our government. They are
deserving the gratitude and esteem of ev
ery lover of liberty and justice. May the |
God of battles shield, protect and defend [
thcin in the hour of danger. Our best i
wishes go with them, in hopes that this |
wicked rebellion will soon be put down j
and a permanent peace bo established 011 !
the immutable principles of liberty and !
justice.
Meeting of Veteran*.
Pursuant to previous arrangement* a 1
meeting of veteran soldiers was held in i
the Court-house, in Butler, on Thursday. '
the IStli inst. The court room was crowd- S
ed with ladies and gentlemen, all anxious
to welcome their •• Cmmtry's De/ender.-."
The meeting was called to order by |
electing Mr. Win. Campbell, President; •
Maj.C. li Anderson and tieo. W. Reed. I
Vice Presidents; JamesS. Kennedy and ;
Geo. W. Crazier, Secretaries.
On motion. Rev. A. B. Leonard, open
ed the meeting with jfcayer.
The President then made a few appro
priate remarks, welcoming the veterans j
and '• defenders of Liberty and Justice to j
the hospitalities of Butler. The Pres
ident called upon Col. J. N. Purviancc to
introduce the Rev. A. M. Stewart, Senior .
Chaplain of the army of the Potomac;
when Col. Purviancc rose and said :
Mr )'rc.si<lent, Ladies and Gentlemen— '
It will not be expected that I should make
a speech. I rise merely to introduce to j
the meeting, a gentleman who will "ad- j
dress this large and respectable assem- J
blage of ladies and gentlemen, on a very
interesting subject.
The occasion is one of great interest. I
and one that warms the heart of every
patriot. We have assembled to greet and '
cheer and welcome many of the veteran I
soldiers of the Union Army.—Heroes of j
many battles. The ladies c\er foremost
in every good work, are here also to je I- j
come the sol liers, not only to their hum!",
but to a sumptuous dinner which they '
hare generously prepared for them. La
dies you have bestowed your kindness ;
upon a most meritorious class of our citi- j
zens. Soldiers who have shared the pri- |
vations and perils of tha- camp and the !
field for years, and yet, to maintain the
Government and the free institutions of |
the country,■haveagain volunteered f'.jr the I
War, and will soon rejoin their Regiments
togo ibrti. tic -attack, pursue and conquer ,
tho rebellious enemies of the Republic.
Such men deserve, and have the thanks, '
the gratitude and -the substantial support j
of every lover of our country.
Although the term of re enlistment may
seem to be long, yet wo are hopeful that
this attrocious rebellion will be put down
—the Union restored upon an enduring |
basis, apd the National authority firmly
established over every foot of our Terri
tory before the close of another summer, j
It is one of the most encouraging fea
tures of the times to the loyal heart, and
most chrushing to the hopes of the rebel
conspirators, to see the unanimity with
which our veteran soldiers are re-enlist
ing, and I am pleased to learn that the
old 13th. now 102 d Regiment, Pa. Vols., j
is not behind others in patriotic devotion I
-to the good cause. The effect is cheer
ing—thousands of others too are encour- )
aged by their noble example to volunteer,
by so general a movement in the right
. direction, by the veterans. The re*enlist
saent of such soldiers whose proved de- :
votion acd courage have been so conspic- j
.aous in so many hard fought battles, will
ring through rebeldom like the fire bell
that breaks the stillness of the night—
striking terror and dismay into the hearts
of traitors. They will never again want
to meet in deadly strife the brave soldiers
. who have fought in the bloody battles of
Williamsburg. Fair Oaks, Malvern Hill, j
South Mountain, Antietuui,Fredericksburg '
Musfrecsboro. Chancellorville, Chicaiuau
ga,Chattanooga Gettysburg, &e., veterans I
who have nobly stood by our flag in the
very blaze of the enemies fire. You have i
ami well deserve the thanks and grati-;
tude, acd support of millions of your
admiring countrymen
j A bright page in our history will re
cord the fact that a million of freemen
or all trades, occupations and profestions
volunteered to stand by and support the
flag and Government of their country in
the hour of its severest trials. The indi
cations are that there will be no need of a
draft in several States. What a noble
history we will have when this war is
i over, and the truthful historian shal 1 re
cord the brilliant achievements of our
volunteer soldiers, as well on the fields of
battle, as the patient endurance of the
1 privation", hardships and exposures of the
i march and the camp. Soldiers, when
you rejoin your regiments and companies
in arms, bear with you that the hearts of
j a grateful people beat in unison with
j yours, and will ever cheer and support you
;in all your trials. We have reason to be
live that the fiery ordeal through which
I we have passed and are still passing, is
j the terrible road marked out by a greater
1 than man's wisdom that is to lead us safe
j ly through all our troubles to National
! prosperity and universal liberty, and unite
j us as a people in principles of more even
! justice and enlightened benevolence.
I have said we believe this rebellion
will be subdued before the close of auoth
ler summer. Can it be otherwise ? A
| country reduced to waste aud threatened
j famine, with an unwilling army, poorly
I provided for, railroads worn out, and all
industrial pursuits paralized, the submis
sive spirit pervading the masses of their
j population, their money or scrip valueless,
j and their credit bankrupt at home and
J abroad, their flag recognized and honored
j by no nation on Earth, with numerous
desertions and thousands willingly accept
! ing the Amnesty proclamation,utter hope
less ruin staring them in the face every
; where, such is but a faint picture of the
i condition of the States in rebellion.
On the other hand we have a discip
lined army, great in all the elements of
j strength, and well supported by millions 1
' of patriotic and devoted people, who pos- i
sess a power in military resources and
general prosperity even greater than when j
the rebels first fired upon our flag at Fort
! Sumter, and willing now as then to de- j
fend the National honor and unity. With
| such an Army, and an unsurpassed iron
1 clad Navy, battling for the right and ;
1 gradually, but surely, narrowing the cir- 1
j ele of its foes, no one can doubt our sue- j
J cess. And I may add too, that since this
rebellion commenced, we have not boi -
i rowed a dollar outside the limits of the j
United States, and that all our loans are I
the voluntary offerings of our own peo- |
I pie. Confidence in the stability of our |
Government never for a moment shook I
| the nerves even of tho most timid. The j
' monied men of the country have tested
j their faith by their works. Our Diplo- }
. m.itic correspondence too shows that all i
the great powers of Europe, Russia, Eng- 1
land, France, Austria, Prussia, &e., have
no doubt of the power of the United j
States to put down the rebellion, and re
store undivided nationality to the extent j
lof our entire boundary. Immense com j
lnorce to and from our ports, and increas- !
el emmigration to our shores, evince faith j
in the stability of our government.
In early spring we will have in the field |
the best Army ever marshalled under the
banners of any nation, and concentrated, !
no rebel power can successfully resist its !
advancing columns. Who then can doubt j
that with such an army and an unsurpass- I
ed Iron clad navy, rcliunt»upon a mighty j
power that directs, shapes, and controls i
the destinies of men and nations, that be- |
fore the close of another summer we will |
have conquered peace, and such a peace. !
with such benificent results in the insti- j
tutions of our country, a.s will be pcrma- ;
nent, and alike honorable to the living j
and the dead.
But I have said more than I intended.
I rose merely to introduce to the meeting J
one who has been in the service since ;
April, 1801. and is now the senior Chap- i
lain in the Army of the Potomac, and has !
shared with many of you the privations |
and perils of the camp, tho march, and 1 j
may say, the battle field, one who has been j
faithful and true, ever present where duty j
lulled to solace the sick and wounded, j
anil-'speak the words of kindness and ]
comfort to all. I need scarcely say that I :
refer to the Tlev. A. M. Stewart. Chap
lain of the 102<i Keg't., (old LJth) Pa. ;
Vols., who will now address you in behalf
of the great moral interests connected i
with our Armies. A subject that com
mends itself to the deliberate considera
tion of all.
Mr. Stewart rose,aiid was warmly greet
ed, and especially by the veterans of the !
102 d Regt., and made a most able, inter- j
esting and effective speech of about one ;
and a half hour, and commanded the j
most profound attention of the large uu- 1
diencc. hope to be able soon to lay '
his remarks before our readers, and we !
i know all will take pleasure in reading them.
There is a calm, firm, earnestness in his
manner, and a beauty of expression, and
a power of facts and argumcut which will
always command the attention of an ap
preciative audience. *
After the conclusion of the address, the
following persons were appointed a com
mittee to collect a contribution of those in ,
; the meeting, to be placed at the disposal j
|of the Christian Commission. James
Campbell, J. N. Purviauce, G. C. Roes- ■
| sing, Hon. James Mitchell, and Jas. Bre
din.
After the collection was taken up the
meeting adjourned for one half hour, for
the purpose of giving the Committee of |
, Arraugcments an opportunity of setting
i the dinner in order. The following gen
tlemen were appointed a committee to as- j
sist the ladies in setting the table and ar
ranging the eatables. H. C. Graham, J.
Purviance, Geo. Purviance. Samuel Gra
ham, E. Lyon, Watson J. Voting, HUrvey
j Colbert and Wm. Stoops.
When the necessary arrangements were
j completed, the meeting again assembled I
The Rev. A. M. Stewart addressed the
j throne of mercy fora blessing, after which
; the veterans and new recruits present, par
took of the sumptuous feast that had been
prepared.
j After dinner the following resolution
i was offered by W. H. 11. Wasson of Co.
11. 102 d P. V.and unanimously adopted.
Resolved, That the thanks of the sol
! diers be returned to the ladies and friends,
j who so bountifully provided the present
! repast.
i Everything went off pleasantly, agreea
bly and satisfactorily.

MESSRS EDITORS:—I again seat my
. self to write you a few lines, not that 1
| have anything special to write, but Ide
; sire to express my heart-felt thanks to kind
friends at home for favors received at their
hands. It is indeed truly gratifying to us
who are away from kind friends aud all the
j endearing associations of homo life, to
| know, that while we arc outupon the tent
ed field battlingfor the niaintnanceof our
national existence, we arc still remember
ed by tbeni; and this is clearly proven to
us by their kind acts toward us ; and per
haps we do not appreciate them to the same
extent that those do, whoare suffering from
wounds and diseases, now in the Hospitals.
Many a Mother has a Son, many a Sister,
j a Brother, and many a wife a husband that
are now suffering from wounds received in
Battle, whose sufferings may be alleviated
by some kind act of theirs. Much can be
j done, (and I am happy to say is being
done,) to alleviate the sufferings of our
Brother Soldiers —this is a noble work.
. and those of the fair sex that arc laboring
so faithfully deserve the highest commend-
I ations for this reason ; while tin: patriotic
: sons of America are battling and enduring
i the hardships of a soldiers life, they are
laboring and sending forth those things
which contribute to their comfort and wel
fare; and these acts of kindness and la
bours oT love towards the soldiers are en
j couraging to them to endure the hardships
and deprivations necessary to a soldiers
: life. But this is too noble and too deep a
! subject for one like me to dojustiee to.—
I would only say, while you are laboring
'■ assiduously for the temporal welfare of
i the soldiers of our country, do not forget
their spiritual welfare; the mind must
j be employed in some way or other, and as
| we are very soarcc of reading matter, any
papers, old or new that are full of good
sentiments, will bo acceptable to many.—
Hoping that the country may be soon res
tored to peace and happiness again,
An<l the fl'ig which our fithers gnve
Tout their children nil,
Rhttll o'er, our children wave;
And not one star from off it fall.
I remain as ever yours with respect,
W. **
! OF COURSE. —Some Copperheads of
; Ashland township, Clarion county,
went to a spelling on Thursday even
ing. the 11th inst., for the purpose of
whipping several young men who had
enlisted in Co. L, lltli Pa. Cavalry, a
i few days before. The enemy came
1 in battle order, but the soldier boys
j wdro not easily scared, and backed
| out tho Cops, at the same time telling
t them "that while they were going out
to defend our flag, they were not
afraid to tight rebels at home, but
would rather have them in the front
j than in the rear, while absent. The
j Copperheads in Ashland are doing
| all in their power against enlistments.
