tivity, the highest conception of, the oblige- .

and the most-tiiiselflsh devotion to the pub
lic g00d... Almost without un exceptioh, its
members on entering .the service made sub.:
sa ntialistierifices; which involved the loss of .
Itkrativepursuite, thedisruption of endearing
relations, and the abandonment of comforts
and luxuries which would have abundantly
satisfied the desires and governed the con 7
duct of more sordid natures. But the,Re
serves, animated -and contrbileaby -the en
thusiasm of love and obedience to God and
country, closed their offices and counting
ffouses ' left the tools andimplements of-their
trades to rust in= their places, deserted the
cUiTgh in the furrow, and 'the cattle' in the
,fields, to arm. and fight for the imperilled
and insulted flag of-their country. No so
dUctione of military glory_:inflansed_their
blood and stimulated in them an unholy ambi
t ion; no lust for power lured them by its subtle
and mercenary enchantments, 'and no ne
cessities, greedy for indulgence, urged them
to. the field. None of - these considerations
moved them or entered into their speculh
lions. They became soldiers,.,neither tor love
of gain or glory, but through a holy and
overmastering inspiration: of ;duty, - which
led them, regardless of consequences, to"la
.bor,-to,sutter, and,-even
of our free institutions and thesacred rights

exultation that rises up in our hearts, like a
£6untain of-pure-water,—when we recall the -
Motives and influences which animated and
governed its individual members. [Ap

Another characteristic of the 'Reserve's
was its elevated esprit de cops . 'based on a
cultured' . sense_,_of_fedivioualihonor,_find_
State 'pride, that manifested itself on all-oc
ensions, and strove by its 'heartiness and
completeness to fulfill: , .overy condition de
manded by loyalty and thff - highest ideal- of
soldierly conduct. Whilst each Regiment
of the Corps preserved its.own compac't or
ganization and labored to work out, in its
own, history and life, ifi'coneeptiods of true
manhoodand chivalrous duty, it at „the
same time, Cherished a fraterniiljeisling of
regard for each of its.associated• regiments,
and 'felt, almost as keen and .interest in
their welfare and honor, as it did in own
Thus, each ono hi: thorn possessed a wider
range of thought and aCtion than belonged
to
range
Pennsylvania regiments, and
outstriped them in developing a higher and
toftion'onsitiility and a more 'comprehen
sive relation -of brotherhood.. The close,
relations which existed between them .as
members of the .amo homogeneous corps;
produced an identify of-purpose-and-com
munity of feeling, tbat'caused --- c - vtrything,
which-affected the weal or woe of ono of
them, to send.its thrill of delight or pang
of 'sorrow throughout the entire bddy. This
harmony of feeling also led to constant and
unreserved intercourse with- each - other and
to the cultivation -of bonds of union -and
attachments that almost annihilated their
seiral individualitieS. Tha united and
co centrated, their highest ambition and
p 'de wore developed in an unfaltering de
votion to the Country's defense and the
maintainance of such - a• stainless record-in
the conduct and character of the Corps, as
would — Fefleethonor.upon each — member of
it, illustrate the valor and patriotista'of our
grand old State, and fully and heroically
discharge every duty which they owed to
yho governMent of their choice and affection.
Another striking feature in the history of
the. Reserves was the unbroken preserva
tion of its union and identify throughout
the vicissitudes of its active and trying ca
reer; Froircihtflieginrfifig - to the end there
was no infusion of now men into its ranks

,'tinued to perform the duty of a full tiorPs,'
exhibiting all,the time a courage ito danger
could disturb—a resolution no difficulties
could shake—and a love of country which'
grey', in intensity as that country's' danger
became more imminent; and whet' at last
it closed its brilliant career, near to the spot
where it had won its greeneSt lanrels, there
remained none in its decimated "ranks who
ad not answdred to tho first roll call
the day . it was finally 'relieved from ,duty,
how it contrasted with its former self, when,
confident in strength, and buoyank - ,in feel

Although in numbers and casualities far in
ferior to Other battles of .the war, none in
value and practical utility exceeded that of
Drainesvily. It.was won at a • most oppor

animated the nation, dispelled doubts and
misgivings, revived • and strengthened the
desponding,_and fired. the enthusiasm of
every patriot - and, at the sometime, perma

liable, resolute and courageous body of men,
worthy of the eclat with which the victory
was universally received. Subsequent events
proved--how worthily this confidence was
bestowed and how truly it was, merited.- _

GRANT'S FITNESS FOR
OFFICE, . ,
We have said thatit is only . in cases where
great merits of a peculiar -kind - exist, or
where, statesmanship and. soldierly-:science
are combined in the same person, that the:
nation seems to take 'del ght in 'honoring ,
its military chieftains. •Alerge clasti . of
Democratic journals deny that - Grant has
these peculiar' merits, and it 'deity of
the Republican press to meet the 'issue at
once. beginning,we must c'all-atten
tion to the - fact that` ,while these journals
hasten to aecuse.Grant of- unfitness-for the,
management of, civil : ovaK=old t ; they at
the same time underrate his military genius,
.so that the burden of prodf apPlieirto that
point as • well as to his 'civil capacity..
We ask candid men, who intend to vote
iridePondently in the aliening" election, to
ponder over this.. What weight ought to
be attached to a denial of Grant's civil ca.
'pacify; when made by parties . who ridicule
hie abilities as a general? If weeliould not
-notioq-the--assault-upon his-- mental-endow
merits for administration at 'all, this fact
that the depreciation comes from - thoie who
hold hits inferior. as,a - general to any other
of our great heroes, ought to,be guff:Li:dont
to induce•patriotic citizens o disregard
such partisan sneers, and to respect and
trust the object of them. - We do not claim
for Grant any more credit than is justlylis

upon the achievemairo( Sherman and oth

PURCHASING A- FARM.— C ollector David
Henshew was a,kind.bearted man as well as
'able; but smart as was, on one occasion
in doing a generous aet, was sediy taken in.
An old customer doing business in Eaton,
N. H., had - failed, owing Mr. H's firm about
$2,000. After settling with'his other cred
itors, he came to see Mr. H.
"Well, sir," said the latter, "what can
you do. for us ?" -
• "Have saved my farm for you r sir," re
plied the unfortunate. • . -
'tYour farm, bey," said Mr. H., "and
what .have you got left?"
- ; "Well, sir, a horse, a pig and coti, -- and al
together I think they may bring me in, about
s7s—sufficient, I hope, to 'get myself and
=family--out West,-Where-I:in nd to , _settle;
by-the-way, -here's.the deed of, the farm,-
sir," tiaid - the'poor but honest ebtor; as he
passed the document which certified Mr:
H.'s legal right to 200 acres of land, "more
or less," and long known aithe "Cold Stream
Farm."
."Oh, that will never do,'", says Mr. 'H.,
and drawing his check for $5OO, he handed
it'to his old custother, remarking at the same
- time, - that-ho "was-sorry - for hisiniefortimes,
and appreciating his integrity, it gave him
great pleasure to be able to afibrd him a lit
tle help at starting again." •
The poor fellow wacegreatlyeurprised and
reluctantly taking the check, "with a tear
drop in each eye," heartily thanked his gen
erous creditor, and departed, but to be seen
by Mr. H. never more.
About the first 'of the April following,
Mr. Henshaw - thought he would go to Baton
and take a look at his real estate there. Ar
riving at about dusk, put - up d'the tavern
kept by his old friend March, whir, on learn
ing his guest's errand, said hemeuld go out
next morning and show him-where the farm
lay.- • ''

"Well,!' continued tho tavern L-keeper, "tho

"Yee, but how do they.get thoro ?"
, "Why, you don't suppose, anybody was
