>lnsio of lite Soul.
MESSRS. EDITORS: —The soul, like a
l well tuned instrument, will enrapture us
( with delightful strains, if rightly keyed,
and all its eh mis in proper order. The
first and most important requisite, is I hat
: our wills shall be keyed in such a way
[ as exactly to accord with the will of oui
I Heavenly Father. This is indispensable,
t else almost every chord will produce <1 is
I eordant notes. Why all these discordant
I notes in civil and ecclesiastical fraterni-
I ties? In ecclesiastical, resulting in dis
i membciiiient; In civil, producing litig.i
--1 tion, war, and bloodshed. The will of
I those fraternities is not keyed to accord
| with the* will of the Governor of the uni
verse. The several chords of our soul
must attach themselves to humanity in
general. The major chord should attach
itself to that part of humanity more ele
vated than ourselves. In this class, we
behold many who have woven the scien
ces into a coronet to deck their brows.—
Their minds, like a vast cabinet, is the
receptacle of every kind of knowledge.
| cither useful or curious. Not satisfied
l with accumulation from earth, air, and
F sea; the starry heavens arc laid under
tribute to yield them fresh supplies.
If we find within our hearts a ehord
. attaching us to this part of humanity,
what strains of melody arc frequently stir
red within us by the perusal of those
heaven-born ideas, which they scatter all
•abroad through the medium of the press,
or by listening to the loftiest strains of el
oquence from the pulpit, which sways the
gathered throng as the breeze sways the
trees of the forest. The minor chord at
tatches us to that part of humanity be
low us. Here we place the savage, bar
barous and half enlightened nations of
the earth. If we find in our heart a
chord attaching us to this part of human
ity, what sweet thrills vibrate through tlie
soul by hearing of the achievements of
the Missionaries of the Cross. Any in
dividual who can compare the condition
of the Sandwich Islanders, the inhabi
tants of Madagascar and Ceylon, before
they had listened to the story of the Cross,
with their present condition, without be
ing enraptured with the melody of the
soul, may rest assured no minor chord
unites them in sympathy with their infe
rior brotherhood. But xhat peans of
music ravishes* the soul, by listening to
the proclamation of liberty from our Chief
Executive to three millions of captives in
our beloved <2Olll3Uy. Not only in the
*oul of man is tiiere sweet music by being
keyed in accordance with the will of our
Ileaveuly iather, but truly might Addi
<*oo say, in regard to the starry host,
"ToroverSinging a, th(.y«hln«,
Tuu u.iutl tliut nifUt; tu is divlno."
Think you we could talk of the music
«112 the spheres if they " ran lawless through
the sky," and refused to course their or
bits in accordance with the fiat of their
great Original. And not only is the mel
ody of the soul, the music of the
spheres, occasioned by beiug keyed in uni
son with the will of Jehovah, the rap
tures of paradise results from the same
cause. Not a single denizen in all the
vnnlit bowers of that celestial clime, but
his w'e t> ' keyed in exact unison wita the
will of his lies. JVJjSr

e Mems. Eds. —As your paper is a fre
quent as well as a welcome visitor to
s our "Smoky Town," I have chosen it par
excellence, (which I trust by the way you
3 will consider complimentary) to insert a
. short article —descriptive to some extent,
3 of a pleasant social party, had in Alle
gheny, on Thursday evening last. By
invitation of our clever, good-looking
■ friend, Captain Wilson, the whole Pro
-5 *vost Marshal party, consisting of Captain
1 Kirker, Commissioner Copley. Dr. Perch
! ment, and the entire body of clerks and
' employees, together with several other
' friends, partook of a most]sumptuous sup
per, gotten up in such a'style as Kreider
Blair knows how. The whole affair, was
what might be called a military parlance,
a complete success. "A feast of reason,
and a flow of soul," it was indeed, without
hotfever. the usual whiskey flow, which
on the present occasion, I am glad to say,
was altogether dispensed with.
Father Copley presided with his usual
grace and dignity, evincing at the same
time, by occasional elites, that his spirit
was as youthful, and that he was as fond
of a joke, as the rest of us. By the ap
pearance of the diehes after supper, no
argument appeared necessary, to convince
any one that the "vittles," especially the
oyster part, were fully appreciated, a
winding up, accompaniment in the way of
some fine Ilavanas, was enjoyed. After
the boards was cleared, some of the party
were called upon and favored us with
quite a number of songs, both patriotic
and amusing. A vote being called for
our noxt President, the faithful '•Abram"
was nominated by acclamation. It is al
most needless for me to remark, that our
whole party, including quite a number of
young veterans, wore hearty in
their approval of the efforts being put
forth to squelch out the slavery rebellion,
a number of good jokes were cracked at
the expense of some would be loyalists—
whose acts of prudence have been some
what dubious—but who seem growing
penitent just at the present, and seem con- !
sidcrably scared about the draft, but like j
the person in the Wolf story, they areluorc I
scared than hurt. The draft, we arc glad |
to say, has been postponed indefinitely.
lint to conclude, our party broke up at I
a reasonable orthodox hour, every body
going away, well pleased with their even- j
ings entertainment, and your coricspon- i
dent will only further express here, the .
wish, that whefi theie is another such par- j
ty on hand, lie may be there to sec and
take notes. PHILANDER. ]

The following article is from the Stut I
Jumna/, a new Republican paper, pub j
lished in Ilarrisburg, by Dr. l>. Ik. B. I
If rower & Son, who formerly resided in '
this county.
'• The sterling patriotism of old Butler j
county cannot be questioned, anymore than !
the universal intelligence of her people, j
We know of no county in the Common
wealth, where the masses possess a more j
general knowledge of public affairs; and I
as might be expected they are fully alive j
to the great issue before the country.
We have frequently had occasion tore- j
mark the prompitutle and the vigor of
their response to every call of the gov- !
eminent.
Another evidence is now before us. that j
old Butler county is determined to fight j
on until this wicked rebellion is subdued; |
it is the fact that ('apt. I.yott's company |
formerly of the old 13th, and now of the j
102<1 regiment, passed through Harris- i
burgh a few days ago, mustering only 43 J
brave fellows out of 100 who had went |
out on the war path with them—now that j
company is recruited to the number of j
135 and many more were refused. All !
the Butler companies have to do to fill |
their ranks,-is to let the people know how
many they want."
A Circular.
Republish below a very important cir
cular, specifying the mode in which re-en
listed veterans are to be credited to their
respective sub-districts. We commend it
to the careful consideration of the peo
ple. There are only two things about it
to be regretted : one is, that it had not !
been issued .before so many sub-districts
had filled their quota with raw recruits. ;
thus cutting off many a noble fellow who j
is ready and willing to fight on, from the
generous local bounties given by the pco- j
pie; the other is, that the circular had not
been written in better English.-*-j

In pursuance of orders from the War
Department, Adjutant General's Office,

ing to' the following principles, viz :
1. The applicant has to produce eith- j
cr the original muster-in (re-muster) roll!
of the respective veterans, or a copy (or '
extract) thereof, verified by the Adju
tant General of the State as a true copy
(or extract) of the original kept on file at
his office, and such proof of the correct
ness of applicant's statement—touching
the residence of these veterans as the
respective Provost Marshals may require,
to base his certificate upon.
2. Each supplementary roll must, as far
as the veterans there n named are con
cerned, repeat all statements of the orig
inal roll, the deficiency of which it is
to supply, and in addition thereto, show
the residences of each of those veterans
oppowte his name, aoeording to ward, ci- 1
ty, township or borough..county, district
and State, without any addition as to cred
its of the men.
3. Hie supplementary rolls will be made
out in quintuplicate, and at the bottom of
each copy the Provost .Mardial will certi
i fv on his honor, that it is a true copy (or
! extract) of the original muster in roll, or
of the certified copy (or extract) of the
same, as the case may be, except that the
j RESIDENCES of the veterans named there
'in have been added. Then the supple
mentary rolls will be forwarded to the
Acting Assistant Provost Marshal Gen

' to is reqnired, and Wio will dispose of
! four copies according to paragraph 15 of
j the revised mustering regulations, and re

4. Veterans for which supplementary
| rolls will have thus been made out are not
to be taken up on the rolls, and reports of
volunteers mustered into service by Pro-
I vost Marshals.
5. No Provost Marshal is authorized to
i make out supplementary rolls as herein
! directed in favor of any veterans not re
| siding in his district.

1 as to authorize Provost Marsha s to award
; credits for any veterans re-enlisted in the

GENERAL SKJEI,. —We wi»h to ex
press our hearty approbation of the
appointment of Oenenl Sigel, by the
President, to the command of the De
partment of West Virginia. Apart
from the consideration that General
Sigel has proved himslf a good sol
dier in every position in which he has
been tried, and that there is thus a
fair probability of military affairs in
West Virginia being better managed
than they have been of late, we rejoi
ce that the President has at last as
sorted his prerogative as Commander
-in-Chief of fho Army by disregar
ding the opposition of General llal
leck's to the hero of Carthage, Sprin
gfield and Pea Hidge. To those who
are at all conversant with the inside
history of the war, it is well known
that the prime cause of this opposi
tion has its root in some unfavorable
criticisms by Gen. Sigel upon Gen.
Halleck's administrationof the De
partment of the West. This is the
reason why the brave and patriotic
Sigel has been kept for more than
a year without a command com
mensurate 1 with his rank and his
valuable services to the country. —
I lis appointment by the President,
over the head of General Ilalleck,
to the command of an important
Department is therefore not only an
act of justice to a true soldier, but it
iti also (significant of the President's in
tention to makeOeneral Flalleek yield

from impending ruin. Truly did he say
to his subjects as oue of old, (if not in

"by deeds," as he lifted his eyes and cast
them over all the Kingdoms of his Con

The days of these notorious rebels are
numbered, and the time soon at hand,
when they with all of their sympathizers
will wish that a mill-stone were hanged
about their necks, and they cast in the
depths of the sea. The light of a loyal
man's countenance will admonish them ol
their deep and duraniable wickedness, and
they will desire thick daikness to cover
their iniquity. O—N.
SERVED IIIM HKHIT. —A sympathiz
ing tory went up the other day to condole
with a lot of deserters in jail. To show
his extreme fr;cndliness he made this ob
servation : *
'■ \\ ell my democratic friends, it seems
that you too are the subjects of aboli
tion arbitrary arrests!"
A young deserter responded a» follows:
— u It makes no difference whether you
call us democrats or abolitionists. One
thing I know: I wouldn't have been in
this cursed hole if it hadn't been for the
persuasion of a few infernal Copperheads
like yourself. I was all right in the army
until- these devils got about me. aud in
duced me to desert. I hare dishonored
myself and the service by listening to the
advice of a set of villains !" "
The Copperhead who went on a mis
sion of condolence, turned on his heel
and left. It was noticed at the time that
ho shook his head as though an enormous
flee had .operating on a large
scale in both cars.— Joua State Journal.

We have received from Col. J. P. 01a9s,
one of our representatives at Harrisburg,
a neatly-printed phamphlet of ten pages
defending the Pennsylvania Reserves from
the aspersions cast upon their soldiery
qualities in General McClellan's report,
ji comprises General McCall's reports of
Hie battles of Mechaniesville. Gains Mills
and New Market Cross Roads, together
with the General's testimony before the
Jtint Comtni:tee on the Conduct of the
War, and the testimony of many of the
living division, brigade, line and company
officers of the entire Reserve corps," inclu
ding Gen. MeaJe. The unitediestimony
of Gen. McCall and his subordinates is,
that the Reserves were not routed iu the
battle of New Market Cross Roads, as
charged by Gen. McClellan. On the con
trary. never did soldiers fight tuore hero
icly and against greater oddsjth* did the
Reserves in the three battles we have
named. And it is already a part of his
tory that, it' the- brave Reserves had been
properly supported in either of those en
gagements, the enemy would not have
gained the victory over us they did when
they compelled McClellan to gather his
once proud and powerful army under the
| protection of the gunboats in James river.
It was great gtncraUhip that was wanting
on the Pen'nsula—n?t pluck and endu
rance, neither of which soldiery qualities
was possessed in a greater degree by any
other division of the Army of the Poto
mac than by the Pennsylvania Reserves.

ScnoFiEtD ox DAWSON.—On the
same ekiy that .Tnhn L. Dawson, de
| livered his set speech in Congress,
, Judge Schofield of this State, ndrnin
; istered to him a brief but pointed re
i buke in the fol'owing,words:
i "Mr. Chairman, my colleague [Mr.
Dawson] who addressed the I louse
111 is morning, informed u.4 that it was
just eight years since he had spoken
j here before. I knew that, not because
t I have followed his personal history,
I hut I knew it by the tenor of his speech.
He must have turned down a leaf
just eight years ago, and begun to-day
where he left off then.. The speech
might have been appropriately made
during the earlier years of the admin
istration of General Pierce. I wish
to remind him that the question in
volved in the struggle now furnishing
so many sad pjges for history is a
question of division: ''Shall the great
Republic to divided into two small
ones?'' That is the question now be
fore the country.
