‘-A correspondent gives the fullOWng de—
scription of Gen. Lyon’s body guard:—
_ “One ofthe principal features of the march
is Gen. Lyon and his body guard. The lat-
ter is composed of ten athletic St. Louis
butchers, each mounted on a powerful horse,
and armed with a heavy cavalry sword and
31 pair of navy revolvers; each Wear a light
but turned up on the leit side, and decorated
with a white ostrich plume. AlmOSt any
time, Gen. Lyon, accompanied by half a doz-
‘en of these savage looking fellows, may be
seen spurring along the line, or a small squad
of them, or singly galloping fiercely to the
front or the rear, or straight out into the Open
country. If the General goes into a house, a
half dozen of them will be seen in front,
standing like iron statues at the bridles Of
their horses; if he scours along in adVancc
(.f‘tli‘e train,’the clanking of their long sabres
'is‘heard beside him—stop where he will,
:there may be always such a swim squad of
.wliite-plumed horsemen awaiting :patiently
hiatmovements. They are fearless riders—
juuip fences on a dead' run, leap ditches, 8111‘
lop‘down steepdescents, and in fact, never
ride less'fast than their horses can run, unless
compelled by some urgent necessity. Inde-
pendent Of their duty as body guards, they
act as messengers, scouts, «be. and “1 conse-
quence, have plenty to do. They are‘coni-
mauded by a lieutenant, and from their ap-
pearance and daring horsemanship, Will, if
occasion demands, whip a dozen times their
weight in chivalry."

SoumaN COTTON AND NORTHERN SHIP-
PINo.—In one of his recent letters to the
London Times Mr. Russell relates a curious
suggestion made by a French entleman,
now in New Orleans,.to some .a cat cotton
planters there. He stated to them that even
if the. blockade were not broken by England
and France, as they hoped it would be, the.
available, shipping of these two nations
would net suffice to carry the cotton crop to
Europe,‘and that without the aid of the im-
mense mercantile marine Of the northern
states southern cotton would lie and rot in
southern ports, even were they open.
' ‘ ' . -<.>-
-W§Cupt. McCOOk, seventeen years old,
wasa member of the Second Ohio Regiment,
and was left as a guard to the hospital at
Centreville, on the 2151:. One of the enemy’s
cavalry dashed upon him and ordered him
to surrender. The brave youth, with fixed‘
bayonet, steady nerve and cool bearing, re-
plied, “I never surrender!" The father,
,Jufidge McCOOk, who had all 'the day been
'ardously engaged in assisting and taking Care
ofthe wounded, bringing them in from the
field, and‘that too at the imminent peril of
his life, was in the hospital tent and heard
the order to his son, and saw others of the
enem ’s cavalry near by, rushed out, and
‘ speaking in a loud tone, “Charley, surrender,
for Gods sake, or you are lost.” Charley
' turned to his father, and with all the lion in
his countenance, replied, “Father, I will nev-
er surrender to a rebel.” In a momenta
ball pierced his spine, but be instantly dis-
charged his musket at the rebel horseman
and laid him low in death, and then fell him-
himself. The rebels then undertook to drag
him off, but his father rushed in and released
him, and he died soon after.

W In these deplorable times of misrule,
when treason is crowned with laurels, and
the sworn supporters of the Constitution are
among the first to sap the foundation of the
Federal Republic, it is refreshing to meet
with sentiments like the following, which
Were uttered byJohn Adams in an early con-
vention of the Confederated States:
“Sink or swrm, live or die, survive or per—
ish,I give my heart and hand to this vote. “
* .* Set before the people the glori-
ous object of entire independence, and it will
breathe into them anew the breath of life.—
Read this declaration at the head of the army;
every sword will be drawn from its seaboard,
and the solemn vow uttered to maintain it,
or to perish on the bed of honor. Publish it
from the pulpit; religion will approve it,aud '
the love of religious liberty will cling around
it, resolved to stand with it, or fall with it.—
Send it to the public halls; proclaim it there;
let them read it who hear the first roar of the
enemy‘s cannon; let them read it, who saw
their brothers and their sons fall on the field
of Bunker Hill, and in the streets of Lexing-
ton and Concord, and the very walls will
cry out in its support.
Sir, I know the uncertainty of human af-
fairs, but I see clearly through this day‘s bus-
iness. You and I indeed may rue it. We
may not live to the time when this declara-
tion shall be made good. We may die; die
colonists; die slaves; die, it may be, igno-
miniousl , and on the scaffold; be it so. Be
it so, f it. be the pleasure of Heaven that
my country shall require the poor offering of
my life, the victim shall be ready at the ap-
pointed hour of‘ sacrifice, comb when that
hour may. ,But while I do live, let me have
.“ country, or at least the hope of a country
and that a free country.
But whatever may be our. fate, be assured,
that this declaration will stand. It may cost
treasure, and it may cost blood; but it will
stand, and it will richly compensate for both.
Through the thick gloom of the present, I
see the bright-net of the future, as the sun in
Heaven. We shall make this a glorious. an
immortal day. When we are in. our graves,
our children will ‘IIOHOI‘ it. They will cele-
brate it, with thanksgiving, with festivity,
and bonfires, and illuminations. On its'an-
nual return, they will shed tears, copious,
gushing tears, not of subjection and slavery,
not of agony and distress, but of exultation,
of gratitude and of joy. Sir, before God, I
believe the hour is come. My judgment ap-
proves this measure, and my whole heart is
in it. All that I have, and all that I am, and
all that I hope in this life, I am now read
here to stake upon it; and I leave off as
began, that live or die, survive or perish, I
am for this declaration. It is my living sen-
sentiment, and by the blessing of God, it shall
be my dying sentiment; independence now
-—and INDEPENDENCE son EVER.”

WA Cincinnati paper says:
“Our readers will remember a Kentucky
law er of eminence, late of this city—Hon.
W, . Thomasson, formerly a member of
Congress from the Louisville district, where
he is widely and favorably known. One Of
the editors oftliis paper saw him on Sunday

first, as a private, with his musket in his
hands and catridgebox over his shoulders, in
citizens dress, marching down from Centre-
ville, to the Bull Run fight, ‘I have said he,in
answer to an enquiry, ‘said a good deal in
my lifetime about the Stars and Stripes, and
now I am going to fight for them.’ The rare
old man hurried on to his work with as quick
a step and as cheerful a countenance as the
youngest soldier in the ranks. We regret to
hear that after having done a good day’s ser-
vice, he was injured at the close of the afi'ray

Camp‘Putii‘am, Hartford, July 29,1861. 5
In behalf of my Regiment, I have a pleas-
ant duty to discharge before our departure
from this city. We have been the recipients
of very many favors from associations of la-
dies in every county in the State. The la-
dies of Hartlo'rd, especially, have nevernwea-
ried in their kind charities in our behalf.
To one and all, whether of the city or of
the rural village, we tender our thanks. We
are going from the pleasant places wherein
we haw: dwelt, and it is but natural that our
thoughts should linger, somewhat sadly, up-
on those we are leaving behind us; but as
we look forward, the future is brightened by
the consciousness that the sweet sympathies
of New England homes will accompany us
in our march, and the handiwork of New
England women will lighten our toils in
health, and alleviate our sufferings if sick and
wounded. Cams 8. FERRY,

With such perfect freedom may it be used
that it should be the travelling companion of

ask'tliat no restraint may be placed on its
use from infancy to old age, and with most
delicate constitutions. All children like it.

Spinal complaints, Delirium Tremeus, and
that chief of all causes of disease, “Loss of

for all preparations of Opium. In the place
of sweeping declarations that mean nothing,
if our friends will make ours strong by fair
trials, being cautious to buy only of such
persons as can be relied upon, and calling us
to account. for the. first deviation from perfect
confidence or duty, we shall be glad to, wait

stated in ihe communications; second, is it true of
all therein contained; third, does my hair mil con-
tinue to be in good order and of natural colt 1' To
allI can and do invariably answer yes. My hair is
even better than in any stage of life of 40 yearn post,
more soft. thrifty and better colored; the lune is
true of my whiskers, and the only cause wh it is not
generally true, is that the substance is was ofi‘by
