Just then the artillery came out and discharged their field-piece. I sprang forward as if it had been an electric battery. It was rather the loudest gun I had ever heard. Then there was an outcry. The horses of the troop were rearing and pitching, and snorting with fright. Peleg -Chandler, who belonged to the company, rode his high-spirited handsome "colt," and soon 1 saw the Ftartled animal dash from the line and fling his rider headlong to the ground. Peleg leaped to his feet, shook the dirt from his uniform, but the "colt" was off. Hundreds of people pursued him, waving hats and arms; heading him off one way to have him dash another; shooing and hallooing, while the lDcolt," head and tail erect, pranced over the ground as though he had awoke to some capital sport. The circle about him, however, grew "smaller by degrees," and at last he was captured; and Peleg reseated himself in the saddle and rejoined his comrades. H. C. DEWEY, Cashier, ESTABLISHED 1855.

Nay, long before you were seen or known in opposition to slavery, he was actively engaged in the noble strife under the banner of immediate and unconditional emancipation. During thixty-six years of public lite he has made the freedom of the race, so long opprssed And trodden down, paramount to all Qther political considerations. Instead of persistently shunning anti-slavery meetings, he was a frequent attendant upon them, and freely participated in their proceedings. Now that he has been deservedly nomiaated by the Republican Party for the Vice-Presidency of the United States, and if elected may possibly, in the turn of events, be the acting Prerident, it chould be a matter of pride and gratitude on the part of colored voters to give him their united suffrages. As he is a Massachusetts Senator, like yonrselt, has been a warm personal friend and faithful coadjutor, and stood up undauntedly in your defense when bloody violence sought your life, I think it is discreditable to you that you have not only evinced no satisfaction with the choice of the Republican Party in this particular, but have treated it as unworthy of recognition."

I stopped and saw the review, and at a safe distance viewed the sham fight; saw company after company inarch up and fire volley on volley; saw officers gallop swiftly over the field, urging the men forward with voice and gesture ; saw the artillery run up and discharge their gun, and quickly shifting the drag-ropes, jerk it back to secure position ; saw Captain Kyar's company, with fixed march up to take it, and saw Captain Glines and his troop dash down upon them to prevent it. Captain Kyar faced his men about, they dropped on one knee, and placing the butts of their muskets to the ground, presented a line of bristling bayonets to bar the horses' progress. The artillery ran out again and fived, the report scattering the troop like so many sheep. Captain Kyar again came down With charged bayonets, but the artillery took refuge in the rear of several companies, who received the gallant captain with vollies of musketry, and drove him back. All this was grand, exciting, sublime. One company, in their excitement, had thrown off their boots, and took it barefooted, acting as skirmishers. There was in one corner of the field a large brierpatch, and the advantage to be taken of it was not lost sight of by those whom the skirmishers annoyed. Under the command of the lieutenant-colonel, a line of infantry was formed, with right and left wings Hanking the "sharp shooters," and then with charged bayonets the line bore down on the "double-quick."

But in his political management he has been and con tic.'es to be far from upright, substitv ting alow expediency for unswerving rectitude. In the treatment of public affairs he is unreliable, and without vision or judgment. The last exhibition of his slipperiness is seen in his high protection dodge at Cincinnati to reconcile freetraders to his nomination. He seems to be quite destitute of moral sensibility, , and when occasion favors can easily be duped. His clamor for universal amnesty, and for a total oblivion of the causes and consequences of the late dreadful war, is directly in the interest of another Southern rebellion; and should he be our next President, as he has repeatedly f reclaimed his belief in the rights of secession, if ag-eed upon by a controlling sectional majority, tl Cre is reaso 1 fo" the gravest apprehensions as to what may transpire under his Admit 'stratio D.

We talked long and with animation about what we expected, and were about falling asleep when the wagon of' Nexer Carter, from Bingham's Four Corners, went by, and ' Neeer discharged his heavily-loaded gun directly in front of the bouse. ' Nezer was on his way to the " training." There were no more attempts at sleep in our chamber. ' Xezer Carter was followed by other " trainers," who discharged their guns and whooped and hooted at every house they passed. Then a big bass drum struck up down in the village, accompanied by a b-flat bugle and a claiionet. Guns were discharged in all directions on the roads leading to it.. Wagon succeedcd wagon by the house, and the hooting, and whooping, and discharging of guns increased each hour. The notes of " the ear-piercing fife" and sounds of the " spirit-stirring drum" came with almost unbroken continuance. Midnight was not far passed before my brothers dressed themselves, and, enjoining me to wait till the morning sun had cleared away the frost, crept silently down stairs and out of the doors and went off'.

If any man in the nation Is entitled as a matter of right) or pre eminently qualified by reason of his candor and impartiality, to sit in judgment upon the extraordinary course which the Massachusetts Senator has seen fit to pursue in the present crisis, that man is William Lloyd Garrison. He has been the life-long friend Oi Mr. Sumner, he has been among his firmest and most influential supporters during ail his public cafeer up to the present time, and, abo\e fill, he was the pioneer in the great cause of freedom and equal rights, in the advocacy of which Senator Sumner has achieved all his reputation and all his claims to the regard and esteem of his fellow-men. It is a significant fact that all the original Anti- Slavery men of the country—iren -'whose lot it was," as Mr. Garrison Lays, "to pass through the heat and burden of the conflict" for human rights—are now zealous supporters of Gen. Grant for the Presidency as against the disgraceful coalition by which Horace Greeley sold.himself to Tammany and the Ku-Klux Democracy for a nomination to the Presidency. Men like Lloyd Garriscn, Wend el Phillips, and Gerrit Smith were old soldiers in freedom's ranks ton« before Mr. Sumner entered the can »ign. When these men, all of whom have rebuked Mr. Sumner for permitting his personal spite and petty grievances to lead h:m to a betrayal of his principles and his party, unite in an arraignment of his couise, he cannot reply in the ill-judged language which he used to Speaker Blaine: l'I ht d not missed yoa until yotl hastened to report your absense." As well might a subaltern affect to ignore the absence of his commanding officer. Thc'r absence ought to be to Senator Sumner, as it is to all honest men old patriots, an unmistakable indication that the cause in which he is new enlisted is not the cause of liberty, or justice, or of equal rights.

To insinuate that iny portion of them—that President 5rant or the Republican Party—have at iuy previous period cherished or do now jherish any wrath, or malice, or unkindness toward the people of the South, is :o libel them grievously. To accuse them of wishing to 'fan ancient flames into continued life,' to pursue 'the policy of hate,' is to bear false witness; for there is among them but one universal feeling of good-will, and they desire nothing so much as to 'let by-gones be by-gones,. in good faith." Mr. Garrison closes his letter by expressing the conv'ction that the issues presented in this campaign are such as to "make all personal considerations comparatively insignificant," and not, as Mr. Sumner would make the world believe, a mere preference of men as Presidential candidates.

The best qualities of THE BEST OF FLOUR, FEED, &c., I penetrated every cr»wd ; listened to banters for swapping horses; looked in at the candy stands to see what they had to vend; investigated the centre of a "card" of gingerbread and fbund—flies, and explored the bottom of a glass of dirty compound called lemonade. Then 1 looked about for new fields to conquer. ■which can be produced. Having had a long and active experience in the Milling business, and being the owner auj operator of a Mill in the Cumberland Valley, producing geventy-flve barrels of flour per day, from the best wheat grown in the State, he hopes to be able to sell a superior flour and at as low a rate as the market will afford. He invites a resume of business with old friends, and a trial from the trade in general. Captain Kyar was a model officer. Slightly verging towards military dandyism, with his uniform strictly ••'Wnj and comforttlitig ttD tieatly to strict taste as the captain's limited knowledge and ideas allowed, he was considered one of the smartest subordniate,officers in the whole Gen. Grant's Magnanimity. WILLIAMS & HUNTER. Gen. Stephen A. Hurlbut, in his great speech at Springfield, 111., turned aside for the moment, from the main line of his argument, to narrate the following : " I will tell you one or two things about Gen. Grant that are worth knowing. I will show you something of his character. You know, all of you, that when the battle of Pittsburg Landing occurred, Gen. Grant was charged by all the newspapers, and by nearly the whole country, if I may so speak, with gross neglect c f duty in not being there when the battle commenced. Now I happen to know something about that , battle myself. My own division was the first troops ftat were landed, and we held it; and I know the ground, I believe, better than anybody else. As a matter of fact, Gen. Grant has lain still during all this time under the obloquy which has been heaped upon him, and which probably will be again, of going down to Savannah on the Saturday night previous, and not returning until the battle was over. I know that lie sent an officer out on Saturday night to inquire whether or not there was anything showing along the front, that he wanted to go down to hurry Buell's troops up from Savannah, and he got the report that a reconnoissance was made by the cavalry, and there was no sight of the enemy. Now, we know that the enemy lay there within two miles of us, but Gen. Grant, rather than bring that trouble on a friend and a brother officer, never published this, nor has it been published by anybody else. Look at another thing, which shows the magnamimity of his character. When he undertook the feat around Yicksburg, Gen. Sherman sent Gen. Grant a written protest against the movement upon the ground that it was dangerous and impracticable, and would probably cost him his whole army. Gen. Grant never heeded that. lie went on, executed the movement, and when the success of it was demonstrated, he sent William T. Sherman his original protest back again, and would not keep it on his minutes, and William T. Sherman was not to be outdone in that sort of thing, and he published the paper to all the world as a vindication of Gen. Grant's claim to be a consummate soldier of division, at the expense of William T. Sherman." Carriage COFFEE, TEA.

But this is an assumption which "justice, as well as becoming modesty, should lead you to disclaim, even it it was meant only to describe your Congressional career. Similiar advocates have from time to time stood bravely up, both in the Senate and the House of Representatives—Wilson, Hale, Wade, Chase, Giddings, Mann, Lovejoy, Julian, Palfiey, Thaddeus Stevens, Gen it Smith, and others—who, if not as copious and ornate in speech in yourself, have been as unflinching, and as their turn most bitterly denounced, to say nothing of the thousands of anti-slavery men and women whose lot it was to pass through the heat and burden of the conflict, pleading, in season and out of season, nearly a score of years before your voice was heard in support of their holy cause. You have since rendered eminent service to that cause; your advocacy of it has been great and meritorious; but to claim it as peculiar at this late day, as though you stood alone and almost single-handed, is a personal appropriation very far removed from self abnegation, and quite unwarranted."

Nay, long before you were seen or known in opposition to slavery, he was actively engaged in the noble strife under the banner of immediate and unconditional emancipation. During thixty-six years of public lite he has made the freedom of the race, so long opprssed And trodden down, paramount to all Qther political considerations. Instead of persistently shunning anti-slavery meetings, he was a frequent attendant upon them, and freely participated in their proceedings. Now that he has been deservedly nomiaated by the Republican Party for the Vice-Presidency of the United States, and if elected may possibly, in the turn of events, be the acting Prerident, it chould be a matter of pride and gratitude on the part of colored voters to give him their united suffrages. As he is a Massachusetts Senator, like yonrselt, has been a warm personal friend and faithful coadjutor, and stood up undauntedly in your defense when bloody violence sought your life, I think it is discreditable to you that you have not only evinced no satisfaction with the choice of the Republican Party in this particular, but have treated it as unworthy of recognition."

I stopped and saw the review, and at a safe distance viewed the sham fight; saw company after company inarch up and fire volley on volley; saw officers gallop swiftly over the field, urging the men forward with voice and gesture ; saw the artillery run up and discharge their gun, and quickly shifting the drag-ropes, jerk it back to secure position ; saw Captain Kyar's company, with fixed march up to take it, and saw Captain Glines and his troop dash down upon them to prevent it. Captain Kyar faced his men about, they dropped on one knee, and placing the butts of their muskets to the ground, presented a line of bristling bayonets to bar the horses' progress. The artillery ran out again and fived, the report scattering the troop like so many sheep. Captain Kyar again came down With charged bayonets, but the artillery took refuge in the rear of several companies, who received the gallant captain with vollies of musketry, and drove him back. All this was grand, exciting, sublime. One company, in their excitement, had thrown off their boots, and took it barefooted, acting as skirmishers. There was in one corner of the field a large brierpatch, and the advantage to be taken of it was not lost sight of by those whom the skirmishers annoyed. Under the command of the lieutenant-colonel, a line of infantry was formed, with right and left wings Hanking the "sharp shooters," and then with charged bayonets the line bore down on the "double-quick."

' Xezer Carter was followed by other " trainers," who discharged their guns and whooped and hooted at every house they passed.

If any man in the nation Is entitled as a matter of right) or pre eminently qualified by reason of his candor and impartiality, to sit in judgment upon the extraordinary course which the Massachusetts Senator has seen fit to pursue in the present crisis, that man is William Lloyd Garrison. He has been the life-long friend Oi Mr. Sumner, he has been among his firmest and most influential supporters during ail his public cafeer up to the present time, and, abo\e fill, he was the pioneer in the great cause of freedom and equal rights, in the advocacy of which Senator Sumner has achieved all his reputation and all his claims to the regard and esteem of his fellow-men. It is a significant fact that all the original Anti- Slavery men of the country—iren -'whose lot it was," as Mr. Garrison Lays, "to pass through the heat and burden of the conflict" for human rights—are now zealous supporters of Gen. Grant for the Presidency as against the disgraceful coalition by which Horace Greeley sold.himself to Tammany and the Ku-Klux Democracy for a nomination to the Presidency. Men like Lloyd Garriscn, Wend el Phillips, and Gerrit Smith were old soldiers in freedom's ranks ton« before Mr. Sumner entered the can »ign. When these men, all of whom have rebuked Mr. Sumner for permitting his personal spite and petty grievances to lead h:m to a betrayal of his principles and his party, unite in an arraignment of his couise, he cannot reply in the ill-judged language which he used to Speaker Blaine: l'I ht d not missed yoa until yotl hastened to report your absense." As well might a subaltern affect to ignore the absence of his commanding officer. Thc'r absence ought to be to Senator Sumner, as it is to all honest men old patriots, an unmistakable indication that the cause in which he is new enlisted is not the cause of liberty, or justice, or of equal rights.

Mr. Garrison closes his letter by expressing the conv'ction that the issues presented in this campaign are such as to "make all personal considerations comparatively insignificant," and not, as Mr. Sumner would make the world believe, a mere preference of men as Presidential candidates.

He invites a resume of business with old friends, and a trial from the trade in general. Captain Kyar was a model officer. Slightly verging towards military dandyism, with his uniform strictly ••'Wnj and comforttlitig ttD tieatly to strict taste as the captain's limited knowledge and ideas allowed, he was considered one of the smartest subordniate,officers in the whole Gen. Grant's Magnanimity. WILLIAMS & HUNTER. Gen. Stephen A. Hurlbut, in his great speech at Springfield, 111., turned aside for the moment, from the main line of his argument, to narrate the following : " I will tell you one or two things about Gen. Grant that are worth knowing. I will show you something of his character. You know, all of you, that when the battle of Pittsburg Landing occurred, Gen. Grant was charged by all the newspapers, and by nearly the whole country, if I may so speak, with gross neglect c f duty in not being there when the battle commenced. Now I happen to know something about that , battle myself. My own division was the first troops ftat were landed, and we held it; and I know the ground, I believe, better than anybody else. As a matter of fact, Gen. Grant has lain still during all this time under the obloquy which has been heaped upon him, and which probably will be again, of going down to Savannah on the Saturday night previous, and not returning until the battle was over. I know that lie sent an officer out on Saturday night to inquire whether or not there was anything showing along the front, that he wanted to go down to hurry Buell's troops up from Savannah, and he got the report that a reconnoissance was made by the cavalry, and there was no sight of the enemy. Now, we know that the enemy lay there within two miles of us, but Gen. Grant, rather than bring that trouble on a friend and a brother officer, never published this, nor has it been published by anybody else. Look at another thing, which shows the magnamimity of his character. When he undertook the feat around Yicksburg, Gen. Sherman sent Gen. Grant a written protest against the movement upon the ground that it was dangerous and impracticable, and would probably cost him his whole army. Gen. Grant never heeded that. lie went on, executed the movement, and when the success of it was demonstrated, he sent William T. Sherman his original protest back again, and would not keep it on his minutes, and William T. Sherman was not to be outdone in that sort of thing, and he published the paper to all the world as a vindication of Gen. Grant's claim to be a consummate soldier of division, at the expense of William T. Sherman." Carriage COFFEE, TEA.

But this is an assumption which "justice, as well as becoming modesty, should lead you to disclaim, even it it was meant only to describe your Congressional career. Similiar advocates have from time to time stood bravely up, both in the Senate and the House of Representatives—Wilson, Hale, Wade, Chase, Giddings, Mann, Lovejoy, Julian, Palfiey, Thaddeus Stevens, Gen it Smith, and others—who, if not as copious and ornate in speech in yourself, have been as unflinching, and as their turn most bitterly denounced, to say nothing of the thousands of anti-slavery men and women whose lot it was to pass through the heat and burden of the conflict, pleading, in season and out of season, nearly a score of years before your voice was heard in support of their holy cause. You have since rendered eminent service to that cause; your advocacy of it has been great and meritorious; but to claim it as peculiar at this late day, as though you stood alone and almost single-handed, is a personal appropriation very far removed from self abnegation, and quite unwarranted."
