PITTSBURGH, JUNE 14, 1862
The War.
Progress is still the lot of our armies.
But progress in war is always costly. It
gives, to vast multitudes, causes for sadness.
Horrid destroyer I Why should men love
it! Blessed peace ; may it soon be the
nation's portion. 4 The condition of our
country is, however, by the conspiracy and
rebellion, such, that peace must be con
quered. While then the nation should
be deeply humbled under the calamity, the
people may rejoice with thanksgiving for
victories. Victories are the precursors of
benefits. The losses in obtaining them are
the prices to be paid for great gains.
TAE EVACUATION of Forts Wright and
Randolph, the surrender of Memphis, and
the destruction of the rebel fleet near Mem
phis, puts us in possession of nearly the
whole of the Mississippi river. This gives
us command of all the tributaries of that
immense water, so far as they are navigable
by our gunboats. We may hence soon pos
sess every State in its great valley. A
vigorous and wise use of the means now in
the power of the Government, must soon
extinguish the rebellion in all the West
and South-west. Texas may hold out for a
while, but it can harm the country very
little, and will be itself the sufferer by its
obstinacy.
BEAMLEGARD'S army, since the retreat
from Corinth, has made no show. Some
ten thousand of his men have been cap
tured. Others have wandered away. The
larger portion of it, with the men from
Fort Wright and Memphis, may possibly
concentrate in central Mississippi ; but
they are more likely to disperse in smaller
bands or find their way East. It will be
almost impracticable for them to obtain
subsistence at any great distance from nav
igable rivers and railroads; and these fa
cilities they are losing rapidly.
COMMODORE PORTER'S mortar fleet was,
ta, last accounts, approaching Mobile, but
nothing decisive had taken place. It is
not impossible that Beauregard may take
most of his army there. He could retreat
thither by rail. And the railroad thence
into the interior, with the Tombigby and
Alabama rivers, and the railroads leading
North and East from Selma and Montgom
ery, would enable him to use the best
means yet in his power of getting supplies,
and keeping up connexions with the other
rebel armies. Mobile, also, if he can re
tain it, and retain the forts at the entrance
of the Bay, would afford the most likely
prospect of escaping to a foreign country,
if he shall be brought to that necessity.
CHARLESTON is now threatened. Com
modore Dupont has captured and entered
Stone Inlet, and approached to within four
miles of this city. This Inlet is naviga
ble by gun-boats, and affords access to
Charleston without exposure to the Forts
and batteries which guard the main har
bor. Charleston we regard as doomed to
captivity as Soon as a few more gunboats
and troops can be spared from the waters
and precincts of the Chesapeake. The
blockade there has been latterly enforced
with great rigor, and many prizes have been
taken.
N. BURNSIDE remains quietly at
Newborn. Of the unhappy commence
ment of Gov. Stanley's administration of
affairs there ) we speak in another place.
We hope, in a week or two more, to make
a better record.
GEN. M'OLELLAN still draws nearer to
Richmond. The late battle there, was
more severe in the loss sustained, than at
first was supposed. The killed and wound
ed were over 4,600, the enemy also took
over a thousand of our men prisoners, and
captured nineteen cannon which were not
recovered. The enemy's loss is said to be still
greater, and being defeated, with all the
advantages he then enjoyed, he can hardly
hope for success in another effort. The
river which separated our army has now
fallen, so as, to be passable. Bridges are
built. Reinforcements are arriving. The
gunboats have nearly reached Richmond.
Our lines are advanced. It is true that
the enemy is also making vast efforts. He
has ordered a levy or all the men accessi
ble, white and yellow, even those who had
previously hired substitutes. A few days
may exhibit a trial of strength, but an
evacuation, is more probable. ,A battle is
not likely to be brought on by Arelellan
till he has evidently, the means of victory,
and the enemy cannot afford to wait very
long.
THE VALLEY OF THE SHENANDOAH his
been recovered almost as rapidly as it was•
lost, and the acquisition may now be re
garded as sure, and permanent. But still
we cannot look back on the loss without
grief and shame. And we have not the
relief which would result from having
caught the venturesome foe. Banks was
soon reinforced, and turned and drove him
back. McDowell's corps was brought for
ward on one side, and Fremont's on the
other, to intercept his retreat, but all failed
to effect a capture. We must accord wis
dom and energy to the rebels. They com
mitted a fatal mistake in underrating the
power of the Government, but our errors
have been . neither few nor , small, which
have proceeded from a want of duly appre
ciating their ability.
It is . proposed to authorize an increase of
e army by three hundred thousand men.

Loinsvma, June 9.—The Federal forces now
occupy Baldwin, Guntown, Jackson and Bolivar
Railroads. Repairs are progriesing rapidly.
The enemy passed Guntown last night, retreat
ing southward from Baldwin.
It is estimated that twenty thousand deserters
have come over to our lines since the evacuation
of Corinth, mostly from Tennessee, Kentucky
and Arkansas regiments. All the regiments
from thew+ States passed down closely guarded
on both sides by Mississippi and Alabama troops.
It is believed by country people that Beaure
gard cannot enter Columbus with half the troops
he brought away from Corinth.
The whole country Bast and North of Baldwin
is full of armed soldiers returning from Tennes
see and Kentucky.
Gen. Pope telegraphs from the advance that
prisoners who first desired to be exchanged, now
want to take the •oath. The enemy drove and'
carried off everything for miles around. The
wealthiest families are destitute,and starving ;
women and children are crying for food ; males
are forced into the army.
.The enemy represent
great suffering for food.
WASHINGTON, June 10,—The following mes
sage was received' at the War Department this
morning: COILINTH, June 9.—To lion. E. M.
Stanton, Secretary of War : The enemy had fallen
back to Tussilla, fifty miles off by rail and near
ly seventy by wagon road.
General Pope estimates the rebel loss from
casualties, prisoners and deserters at. over 20,000,
and General Buell at between 25,000 and
30,000.
A person who was employed in the Confeder
ate Commissary Department says they had 130,-
000 men in Corinth, and that now they cannot
muster much over 80,000. Some of the fresh
graves on the road have been opened, and found
filled with arms.
Many of the prisoners of war beg not to be
exchanged, saying that they purposely allowed
themselves to be taken. Beauregard himself re
treated from Baldwin, on Saturday afternoon, to
Okolona. [Signed] H. W. A ALLECK,

MCCLELLAN'S HEADQUARTZES,
Tuesday evening, June 3.
The following address was read to the army
this evening at dress parade, and was received
with an outburst of vociferous cheering from ev
ery regiment:
HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF:THE POTOTIAO,
Camp near New-Bridge, Va., June 2, 1862.
Soldiery of the Array of the Potomac :—I have
fulfilled at least a part of my promise to you.
You are now face to face with the rebels, who are
held at bay in front of their Capital. The final
and decisive battle is at hand. Unless you belie
your past history, the result oannot be fora mo
ment doubted. If the troops who labored so
faithfully, and fought so gallantly, at Yorktown,
and who so bravely won the hard fights at Wil
liamsburg, West Point, Hanover Court-house; anal
Fair Oaks, now prove worthy of their antece
dents, the victory is surely. ours. •
The events of every day prove your superior
ity. , Wherever you have met the enemy, you
have beaten him. Wherever you have used the
bayonet, he has given way in panic and dis
order.
I ask of you now one last crowning effort. The
enemy has staked his all on the issue of the com
ing battle. . Let us meet Mm, and crush him
here, in the very centre of the rebellion.
Soldiers, I will be with you in this battle, and
share its dangers with you. Our confidence in
each other is now founded upon the past. Let
us strike the blow which is to restore peace and
union to this distracted land. Upon your valor,
discipline, and mutual confidence the result de
pends. (Signed) Ciao. B. MCCLELLAN,
Major-General Commanding.

WASHINOTON,- June 10.-The following was
received at the,War Departinvit this A. M.:
lisanutrAurnits ARMY IN THE FIELD, HARM
soNsuact, June 7.—Hon. E. M. Stanton, 'Secretary
of War: The attack upon this - enemy's rear yes
terday precipitated his retreat. Their loss in
killed and'wounded was very severe, bud many
of both were left on the field. Their retreat is
by an almost impassable road, along which many
wagons were left in the woods, and wagon loads
of blankets, clothing and other equipments are
piled up in all directions. During the evening
many of the rebels were killed by shells from
the battery of Gen. Stahl's brigade.
Gen. Ashby, who covered the retreat with his
whole cavalry force and three regiments of in
fantry, and who exhibited "admirable skill and
audacity, is among the killed.
Gen. Milroy made a reconnoissance to-day
about seven miles on the Port, Republic Road,
and discovered a portion of the enemy encamped
in the , timber. [Signed]
J. C. FREMONT, Maj. Gen. Comd'g.
FREMONT'S HEADQUARTERS, HarlitOnbllrg,,Tune
7.--In the skirmish yesterday, beyond the town,
the rebel lose is ascertained to have been very
heavy.
Most of our wounded have been brought in.
Col. Kane, of the Bucktail Regiment, is in the
enemy's hands.
The body of Capt. Haines, of the New Jersey
cavalry, has been found.
Capts. Skelimire and Clarke, of the same regi
ment, are prisoners, and not wounded.
Col. Ashby, the leader of the famous rebel
cavalry, - is undoubtedly killed. This is ascer
tained from the people living near the battle-field,
and from prisoners taken.
Major Green, of his regiment, was shot by
Capt. Broderick, of the New Jersey cavalry.
FREMONT'S HEADQUARTERS Battle-field, eight
mike beyond Harrisonburg', June B.—Gen. Fre
mont has overtaken the enemy, of whom he has
been in pursuit far a week, has forced him to
fight, and has driven him with heavy loss from
his chosen position. He left Harrisonburg this
morning, at 6 o'clock, and advanced in pursuit
of Jackson by the road leading to Port Republic.
To the left of the turnpike to Stanton, seven
miles beyond Harrisonburg, the advanced guard
discovered the enemy posted in-the woods to the
left and front, apparently in Rime: The artil
lery was sent to the front and commenced shell
ing without eliciting any reply...,.
jacksbn, having at last 'be - 6i forced to make a
stand with his whole army r had completely mask
ed his position in the woods and ravines. Skir
mishers and cavalry were sent forward. The
whole column came rapidly up in line of battle,
extending "nearly two miles, and was promptly
formed under direction of Col. Albert, chief of
staff. Before it was completed Gen. Stahl, with
the Garibaldi Guards, became engaged with the
enemy in the extreme right, and forced to fall
back. At half-past twelve a general advance was
ordered, and the whole line moved forward.
Gen. Milroy had the centre, Gen. Schenck the
right, Gen. Stahl, with all his brigade except the
Garibaldi Guards, the. front.. Gen. Blenker's,
Gen. Bohlen's and Cot Steinwicker's brigades
composed the reserve. The line moved down
the slope of three hills, into the valley, and up
the ascents, which at the summits were covered
with woods. In these woods, and in heavy tim
ber beyond, the enemy were picketed. Gen.
Stahl, on the left, was first engaged. Gens. Mil
roy and Schenck found the enemy soon after,. and
the battle almost immediately became general.
General Stahl, after Scrivener's battery had
shelled the rebel position, advanced `(the Bth
New-York and 45th New-York) through the woods
into an open field, on the other side of whioh the
enemy's right wing was concealed in the woods.
The Bth advanced gallantly under a heavy fire,
but being so long unsupported by the 46th, and
largely outnumbered, were finally forced to re
tire. Cot Mitchel was seriously wounded, and
the whole regiment badly cut. up, losing not less
than three hundred, more than half its strength.
The enemy's pursuit was checked by artillery.
Gen. Stahl finally withdrew his brigade to a
stronger position,. repulsing a flank movement,
and holding his wing firmly. Gen. Milroy ad-

vanced his centre rapidly, the artillery fire com
pelling the enemy to give ground. Gen. Schenck,
on the right, twice drove the rebels, who at
tempted to turn his position. Along the whole
line our artillery, under Col. Rilsona's direction,
was served with great vigir and precision, and
our final success was largely due to its effect.
The enemy suffered most severely. One rebel
regiment lost two-thirds of its number in attempt
ing to capture Widrich's battery, which eat them
to pieces with canister at forty paces.
The rebel batteries were repeatedly silenced,
and forced to abandon their positions.
"Col. Cluseret, with his weak brigade, took and
held the centre of the enemy's position, and his
encampment is there to-night.
Our forces were outnumbered at ail points, but.
have reoccupied the rebel lines, and forced them
to retreat.
The loss is heavy on both sidea--the enemy
suffering especially from our artillery.
The Garibaldi Guards lost 200, and the 25th
Ohio 60.
The total loss is estimated at 600 to WO, in
killed, wounded and missing.
Col. Van Gilsa, De Kalb regiment; Capt. Paul,
Bth New'Jersey ; Capt. Missner, 29th New Jer
tidy; Capt. Bickats, Nth New Jersey; Capt.
Chas: Worth, 25th Ohio; Surgeon Cantwell, 82d
Ohio—all wounded. Many other officers are
wounded and killed.
The rebels fought wholly under cover, while
our troops were forced to advance through open
fields.
Memphis,
On taking possession of Memphis, Col. Fitch,
commander of the post, issued a notice, that the
United States had taken possession of
-the city
for the purpose of asserting the supremacy of
the laws, and of protecting the public and pri
vate property.
Residents who have fled are exhorted to re
turn. Merchants and others are requested to
open their stores and shops, except those deal
ing in intoxicating liquors, who are forbidden to
resume traffic ander the penalty of having their
stock destroyed. The Mayor and Common
Council will continue to exercise their functions
with the military authorities, co-operating and
enforcing all proper ordinances, unless exigen
cies arise, rendering martial law imperative.
The railroads have all stopped running to the
pity.
The Memphis and Charleston Railroad is bad
ly cut up, and all its rolling stook has been sent
South.
All the stock of the. Memphis and Ohio road,
except three engines, are here.
Thos. H. Easson was the military command
ant, but ex-Senator Acting Brig. Gen. G. N.
Fitch, of Indiana, is in command of the city
now, since the formal surrender. The excite
ment among the people has subsided, and all is
quiet.
The new Postmaster for Memphis Is now in
Cairo, and will be here soon.
Reports are current . that Com. Hollins, when
he received news, of the destruction of Mont
gomery's fleet, burnt his vessels, four in number,
which were some distance below bore.
. _
Over 6,000 people lined the bluffs here, and
witnessed the fight this morning.
All the stores are closed, but many will be
opened again. The citizens seem anxious to
have trade renewed with them.
Very little trouble is apprehended in holding
the city.
Large quantities of cotton were burned, but it
is said there is a great amount of sugar and mo-
lasses which pas been secreted by its owners
ready for shipment.
One rebel regiment was stationed a mile below
the city, but has disbanded, and the men are
now endeavoring to get home.
The fleet will start at once for Vicksburg.
The loss of the rebels in the engagement was
upward of 100 killed, fifty of whom belonged to
the gunboat Gen. Lovell were drowned.
Congress.
Congress has been more active the last week
than usual. The passage of the Tax bill in the
Senate, is an event. Judge Humphreys did not
appear (he is .in rebeldom) to answer to his im
peachment. Proclamation was made, demanding
his presence, and the case was deferred till
June 26th. .

Capture of Memphis
CAIRO, June B.—The regular packet Platte
Valley, the first boat through from Memphis; ar
rived this morning. Our forces are in possession
of Memphis.
The flotilla, composed of five gunboats and
eight rams, left Fort 'Wright at 2 o'clock on
Thursday morning. Finding no obstructions at
Fort Wright, the flotilla passed on, and at eight
o'clock on Thursday evening the gunboats an
ohored two miles above Memphia, the rams re
maining a short distance above. A reconnois
sance soon made out the enemy's fleet, consisting
of the following vessels : Gen. Van Dorn, flag
ship ; . Gen. Price, Gen.. Bragg, Gen. Lovell, ..Teff.-
Thompson, Beauregard, Sumter, and Little Rebel,
was discovered lying near Memphis. During the
night the rebel fleet moved down the river, and.
at daylight were out of sight; but in half an hour
afterwards they were seen homing up, formed in
line of battle. Our gunboats bad, in the mean
time, weighed anchor, and, followed by several
rams, moved. slowly toward the rebel fleet, when
a shot from the Little Rebel, from a rifled 'gun at
,long range, fell within a short distance of the
gunboat Cairo, which was in advance. The Cairo
replied with a broadside, and soon the
,engage
-
meat became general at, long range.
The rams had in the meantime advanced, and
the rebel ram Beauregard . being some distance in
advance, was singled out by the Federal rams
Monarch and Queen of the West; each striving to
be first to strike the rebel craft. The Monarch.
succeeded in striking her amidships, almost cut
ting her in Pam,. causing her to fill and sink
immediately, in the channel directly opposite the
city. At this juncture the Little Rebel ram made v.
dash at the Motiareh, which by-this time was in
the midst of the rebel fleet, but by a skillful
movement of the pilot of the latter, she dropped
out of the way, and the blow intended for her
struck the rebel boat Gen. Price, taking away
the wheel and making it necessary for her to run
ashore, where she sent shot, which, unfortunate
ly for the rebels, struck the boat General Lovell,
rendering her unmanageable. linmediately after,
she was run down by the Queen of the West. A
broadside from the Benton took effect in the side
of the Jeff. Thompson ; she ran ashore soon'after,
was soon in flames, and burned to the water's
edge.
Four of the rebel boats having been disabled,
the remainder of their fleet retreated down the
river, pursued by our boats, firing as they ad
vanced, resulting in the capture of the Sumter,
Gen. Bragg, and Little Rebel, which had been
abandoned by most of their crews. Capt. Mont
gomery, the flag-officer, had succeeded in making
his escape in the woods on the Arkansas shore.
The Federal ram Lancaster was struck by the
Beauregard early in the engagement, and slightly
disabled. Col. Ellett, who commanded the Fed
eral rams, was wounded severely but not danger
ously. This waithe only casualty on our side.
Our rams were manned by sharp-shooters,
mostly from - Illinois, who did good execution,
picking off the enemy's gunners at every oppor
tunity_
The rebel loss in killed, wounded and prison
ers is heavy, but not yet fully ascertained. Our
tugs are busily engaged in picking up the crews
of their disabled boats.
After the return of the gunboats from the pur
suit, Co.o Davis sent the following note to the
Mayor of the city:
U. B. FLAG STEAMER BENTON,

Immediately after, the boat's crew landed, and

WASHINGTON, June 7.—Dispatches have been

Mitchell, dated at Huntsville, Alabama, June 6th,
stating that au expedition from his army under
command of Gen. Negley had driven the enemy
comssaaded by Gen. Adams, from Winchester,
through Jasper bank to Chattanooga, and utterly
defeated and routed them at that point. Bag

Nayti and Liberia.
Mr. Smetwer's bill, providing for the opening
of diplomatic relations with Hayti and Liberia,
which passed the Senate by a vote of twenty
' two yeas to seven nays, was, says a Times spe
cial, adopted by the House by an unexpected
large majority. it. is probable that commission
ers front Hayti will present themselves at an early
day, and that a treaty between the United States
and that country will be negotiated in Washing
ton. The speeches in the House on the Hayti
and Liberia bill are highly spoken of, especially
those of Messrs. Kelly, McKnight of Pitts
burgh, Pa, and Judge Thomas, of Mass., who
favored the measure,
The Enlargemeikt of the New-York Canals.
A highly interesting report was made to the
House by Mr. Moir ' of Missouri, from the Com
mittee on Military Affairs, with an amendment
reported is a supplementary section to the pend
ingbill for enlarging the Illinois' canal and im
'prating the Minois river. The section provides
for enlarging the locks of the Erie and Oswego
canals to a sine adequate to pass gunboats, at a
cost not exceeding $8,500,000.. The report places
these works strongly in the military necessity
rendered manifest by the menaces, last Winter,
of the British prom in respect to the cities and
commerce, of the Lakes. Our two great channels
of naval access, one from the Hudson and the
other from the Mississippi '
are strikingly treated
by the report as integral and inseparable por
tions of a harmonious system of national defence.
Their commercial importance will probably be
presented to Congress in some other form.

Rebel Account of the Naval Fight at Memphis
Tbe following is from the Memphis Appeal:
One of the Feder&ls shot ahead. The Beaure
yard prepared to receive her, but . the contest was
of short duration, as the Beauregard avoided the
blow intended for her, and struck her adversary
forward of the wheel-house. The blow placed
the Federal boat hors de combat.
In the meantime another Federal ram, the
lifonarch,came to her assistance. The Beaure
gard attempted to , run htir &own, bait missed hVr,
and struck the Gen. Price in the wheel-house,
making a complete wreck of the boat. She
made for the Arkansas shore, and sank. A
number of persons on board were killed and
wounded by the enemy's sharp-shooters. At
this period four Federal iron-clad boats, which
had taken no part in the action, except firing at
long range, came up, when the cannonading was
fiercely renewed. In a short time the Monarch
was struck by a large shot, and sunk. The
Little Rebel was soon afterwards struck by a
Federal shot, and at once started for the Arkan
sas shore. The Beauregard, nothing undaunted
by the disasters which had befallen the others,
continued firing. As she retired toward the
point two or three of the enemy's large boats
closed upon her, pouring in a broadside. The
Federal ram came up and also dealt her a blow,
when she sunk rapidly. The Confederate fleet
moved down the river, and shortly afterwards
one of them was discovered to be in flames.
The conclusion arrived at was that the remain
der of our fleet shared the same fate as the oth
ers. The loss of life in the engagement cannot
be estimated to any degree of certainty. A
number are known to have fallen by the enemy's
sharp-shooters. It is supposed quite a number
went down in the sinking vessels.

GREAT BRITAIN.
The Defence Commission, appointed by the
British Government, to inquire into the relative
efficiency of iron-plated ships and fortifications,
made a report in which they unanimously came
to the conclusion that the latter must continue to
form an essential feature in the defence of the
country.
The London Daily News defends Gen. Butler's
course at New Orleans.
Notice had been given in the British House of
Commons of a motion of inquiry into the rela
tions existing between England and the United
States Government and the Confederates.
The London Morning Post learns that in the
absence of any law bearing on the case of the
ship Emily St. Pierre, the English Government
will refuse to restore her.
The surrender of Norfolk and the destruction
of the Merrimac, is regarded as the retirement of
the South from the contest on the water.
The rule of Gen. Butler in New Orleans is de
nounced as excessively severe and harsh.
The. English political news is unimportant.
Lord C. Paget said that the Government had
settled with Capt. Coles relative to his, cupola in
vention. It is reported that he gets £5,000 down,
and £lOO pounds sterling for every cupola intro
duced in the navy during fourteen years.
The Common Council of the City of London
has unanimously agreed to present the freedom
of the city to Mr. Peabody in a gold box, for his
munificent' gift..
.The Times, speaking of American affairs,
says;
Certainly the progress of the North, though
sometimes slow, has been hitherto sure; and, if
place after place be abandoned, there must come
a time when the rest will be hardly worth defend
ing. Of the future we can know little; it can
only be said that the South has fanaticism and
desperation to oppose to the superior numbers,
wealth, and military appliances of the North,
and that the contest may possibly wage with
greater fury than ever during the next few
weeks.
FRANCE
The correspondent of the s London Globe says,
in regard to the French occupation of Mexico,
that the plan of operations has been fully decid
ed' upon in .the Imperial. Councils and Cabinet.
The metropolis of Mexico is to be occupied un
der every contingency, and garrisoned until the
20th of the coming October, when, the yellow
fever season being over, a fresh army is to be
forthcoming, and every strategic position in the
whole country seized on. There is to be a. three
year's occupancy by French troops, to allow
time for the development of the national will.

DIED—Of paralysis, in Armstrong County, Fa.„,Alay 25th,
1962, Mr. WILLIAM MORRISON, in the 83d year of his age.
Just four weeks previously, Mrs. Morrison, very suddenly,
and by a similar disease, had been removed from his side.
After the shock occasioned by her loss bad someihat passed
away, the old home having now been a - second time stripped
of all that was dear to hint there, the heart of the aged father
seemed to turn for solace to his beloved children, most of
whom are still living. Whilst visiting a daughter living a
few miles distant, ho was attacked with paralysis on Friday
evening, and before the dawn of the following Sabbath, he
bade, adieu to "the things that are seen and temporal," -to
enter, as as hoped, upon the celebration of a Sabbath which
shall know no end.
Mr. Morrison's family consisted of nine children, seven of
whom are still living; of grandchildren he had seventy, all
of whom he had been permitted to see and embrace; and of
great-grandchildren he had thirty-eight. One privilege he
enjoyed, which is often denied to the aged servants of God
Me lived to see all his children hopefully converted, and em
braced in the bosom of the Church which he loved. And he
lived to see a large portion of his grandchildren also walk
ing in the ways of the Lord God of their. dithers," a number
of them having been hopefully converted and having pro-
fessed their faith in Christ during the revival of 1858. One
of his grandsons is licensed as a probationer for the Gospel
ministry, and another is pursuing his studies With the view
of entering the sacred office.
Mr. Morrison was a Ruling Elder in the church of Slate
lick for forty-six years, havitur been ordained to that office
and installed in October 1818. And to the end of his life he
studied its peace and prosperity. On the morning of the day
oh which he received the solemn premonitiOn of his approach
ing end, in the midst of a number of friends, he was called
to India the devotions of, the family. As the expression of
his own devotional feelings, he selected that beautiful hymn
commencing with
"All hail I the power of Jesus' name."
All around him observed how his semi seemed to become ele•
vated wititthe glorious theme, as he mingled his voice with
others In the sacred nong.: And then the marked earn
cattiest; of that closing prayer of his life, as he poured forth
his fervent petitions to God on the 'behalf of our bleeding
country—and especially on the behalf of the Church of God;
in all her interests. Surely that was a fitting close of a long
life spent in the communion of the saints on earth, and a
hopeful antecedent of the higher and purer fellowship of the
saints which is secured to all who are thithful, above the
ells. *
DIED—At Pittsburgh Landing, Tann., April Bth, WIL
LIAM LOWRLE PORTERFIELD, eldest son of Robert and
Ann Porterfield, aged 11.3 years, 2 months, and 6 days.
The deceased was born In Butler County, Pa., whence he
removed with his parents to Marietta, Ohio, In 1854. Here
be attended the High School, graduating with honor in June
1559. When men were needed to aid in crushing out this re
bellion, our noble-hearted, patriotic boy was all impatience
to take part in the conflict. With his mother's permission
he enlisted in the 77th Reg't 0. V. 1., last September, but did
not leave home, the regiment camping in Marietta, until the
ninth of January, when they were sent to Cincinnati, thence
to Paducah, Ky., and on the 10th of March they formed part
of the immense army sent up the Tennessee. Our noble
soldier boy sustained the fatigues and hardships of camp-life
with unbroken health and spirits; cheering and encouraging
his oft•desponding comrades by his hopeful words, and com
forting ths` anxious ones at home with affectionate letters .
twice every week. 0 how those dear letters are missed now I
For some time it was impressed upon his mind that he was
not long for this world; his thoughts were turned beyond
this world; and our God, we trust, was fitting him for his
great change, leading him in a way that he knew not. Ho
passed through all the great battle unhurt. On Tuesday
morning hie regiment was ordered out to skirmish with the
enemy's cavalry. While marching out, he said to a friend,
"I wish I could see my mother, sisters, and all of them at
home, once more before I die" His comrade asked him if
be expected to fall. He replied that he did, and requested
him in the event of hie death to.take from his pocket a minia
ture of his betrothed and send it to her, and to send his watch
to hie mother. A few moments after, the rebel cavalry dashed
suddenly down upon them, firing a volley from their car
bines. He was among the first to fall, being shot through the
neck, and also In the breast. Ile lived but a few minutes
alter falling, and was not known to speak. About an hour
afterwards, when his comrades gathered around him, life was
extinct. His watch and purse had been stolen, bat the min
iature lay upon his bosom. Hie weeping comrades, by whom
he was much loved, took him up, wrapped him in his blan
ket, and reverently laid him to rest beneath a forest tree, in
the bark of which they carved his name. There be sleeps
in that far-off stranger land, where no mother's nor sister's
tear may bedew his grave; but a covenant-keeping God will
watch his sleeping dust until the resurrection morn. He
went forth from us in all the pride and vigor of early man
hood, but to return no more.
ThiS first break in our once happy family has crushed our
hearts with bitter anguish, but we "sorrow not es those
without hope." N. J. P.

He has left a widowed wife and two little sons, and many
friends to mourn his loss—a loss which we all feel, and would
be humbled under it; yet we do not mourn as those who
have no hope, for we have good reason to believe that what
is our loss is his infinite and eternal gain. Like many others
of our sons and brethren, impelled by an ardent desire to
uphold the arm of the Government, to put down this most lin_
righteous rebellion, to maintain the principles of justice and
equity, and help to restore peace and good government once
again in the land, he left home, kindred, and friends, and
went forth into the field of toil and strife, of blood and death,
to do what he could for the accOmplishment of thoie most de
sirable objects—objects much to be prayed for by the people
of God. His was a patriotism orate right kind; unmixed
with pride, ambition, revenge, or inhumanity. Hie letters.to
his father and other friends afford pleasing evidence of this.
In anticipation of a battle at, Bowling. Green, ; Sy., he wrote
thus to his father : "If a battle shall taloi place, I shall en
deavor to do my duty faithfully and fearlessly—putting our
trust in God, we shall march to victory or death but if it
shall not, I shall be as well . satisfied, for I can have no de
light, in shedding human blond." In writing to another
friend, he says: "When I, see and hear of the doings -the
outrages of the Secesh in this region, I feel as if I could—
but I will not say what—God knows—revengeful feelings are
too apt to rise." But that which is more pleasing, more grat
ifying to a right-thinking, godly man, is the evidence which
his letters afford us of his having been influenced and gov
erned by the spirit and precepts of the Gospel. a When I sea
the wickdeness, the profanity, the intemperance, the Sabbath
breaking, the vice and immorality of every kind which pre
vails here, I sometimes fear we cannot expect the blessing of
Rod to accompany our arms. (And were it not for the right
eousness of the cause, who .could?) I thought, when we
came near to the field of conflict and death, that if, nothing
else would rest, sin them, fear would; but now I find that if
they will not hear Moses and the prophets, neither will'they
believe if one rose from the dead." Writing to his father of
the sickness and death of his younger brother, be says
"There was a great change in his outward conduct and con
vereation for some time past—so much so that it was noticed
by all our company. I hope he had made his peace with
God. Although there was no minister here to converse and
pray with him on his sick and dying bed, I talked with him
and prayed with: him as best I could, and think I was the
humble instrument in the hand of God in leading him to
seek the Saviour. My prayers went up to the throne of God
with his departing spirit; and 0! I hope they were heard
and answered. Let us not mourn, but rather rejoice that he
is taken away from this wicked, wretched, warring world of
sin and woe' And he, too, is taken away from it, we trust
to another and better world, where sin and woo can find no
place.
" The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart
and merciTul men are taken away, none considering that the
righteous is taken away from the evil to comer—Tea. lvii : 1.
