A History of Co. F„ 25th V. J., Voluntoern. , August 18C2, in answer to a call for 1 volunteers, a. meeting was held at Ihe ' Cold Spring church. Rev. Moses Will- ' iamson, the pastor, who for many years hail broken to us the bread of life, adthe audience upon the theme, every true citizen of the United tho preservation of our union, urging all to be faithful to their country the hour of trial. In response mitn after man stepped forward placing their names upon the roll, pledging to defend flag. September 1st, we assembled at the Town Hall— never shall I forget the scene,— mothers clinging to their sons, oi they imprinted'perhape the n>t Use upon their brows, ami the fathers, though they had innnfullr braved toll, disease and danger, were unmanned, and with moistened ey-t bade aonfOod speed Jyieltling tip their h arts tieaaares,npon the altar of their c untry. Twelve carriage load of volunteers started from the Cold Spring Academy, to drive to kllillville, that being tbc nearest railroad station, arriving at the House, we halted and were provld- , cd with refrethmcntx. Ournext atop was at Welti' Hotel, Dennlavl la, where- «r took supper. It wair near 11 o'clock when we departed from Drnnlattllr, »rrlvtng at MUlrllle about 4 - 'dock in tbe momlng, at 5 o'clock we breakfast at a table set on the aldewalk. After this meal, the Rev. ;M- -Mltcbeno, pastor of the M. E. church, addressed the vi-lun-followed by remarks from citizens Col well, and Mahlon. The Mlllvllle escorted us to the depot. Sear we passed the camp of ihe 12th N. J. Vols. Arriving at Beverly, we were reported to Ovn.]ltobeson, by Hon. A. Reeves, In due tiiito wc were drawn up lu line and sworn in by Gen. A medical i-xaiuinai ion followed and lest was |ia red by the.followmen, Furuian Ikmiult, Juteph GarriJohn W. Reeves, Jas S. Eldredge Alphonzo I*e, Rcubeu Foster, Anthony Crease, Wm. T. Stevens, Wm.

We were now I veritable soldiers, with the privilege of 1 drawing our rations of salt pork, bread, | molasses, and potatoes, of doing our owe cooking, and sleeping Jon the soft aide of a pine board.

The regiment form- ; , , ed and marched to Cooper Shop's re- j , freahmcnt salooc, where, after ground- j , J tag arms and throwing oil knapsacks. ! , we entered the saloon, where we par- j , took of an excellent meal bountifully j , ' provided by the ladles of Philadelphia; i , As every fellow seemed to think that it I ^ was Ihe last decent meal he should par- j a take, he accordingly stowed it away j ' with a will. Tltcre was another parting- j . • scene with friends and relatives as we c marched on our way to the depot. All t along the route thousands waived titeir handkerchiefs and bade us farewell. c while little ehildren werei extending , their hands, saying. bye, sol- , dlrra." I We arrived in Baltimore at half past ! three in the morning amid a storm, and , were dumped out of the cars to tramp u through mud and rain a mile and a half r lo another depot. Tbc Baltimore Union „ Relief Aasociation gave ns a b.eakfost, for which wc were grateful. Half past y eight found us packed in sleeping cars, „ bound lor Washington. Six hours p«Seed before we arrived there, as wc were I. continuously giving the right of way to other traioB. Arriving nt Washington, i. we wer? marched to the large wooden barrarks built especially for the accom- ~ modation of new troops over night. In , the cars we were packed like sardines. ^ but were tired and slept soundly Next morning ordered to move on. after i, u maretiing two miles haltctl on Enst Cap .. ital Hill, our next move; Fairfax Semi--nary, camped flral day of march on }i Gen.

New Punllcatlon. I The llulblay Number or STUxwHiiinoE ; .t Clotiiiks's QexBTV.m-v. Just st hand from the publishers keep- well up to the I , high xbimlard as a ladies' magazine that lion of the public far whom its valuable 1 ' contents are prepared. Julinn Hawthorne contributes a short story, written in the highly imaginative vein ot his father. The illustrations are in keeping with the weird nature of the story. From the handsome colored lithograph of on evening toilet, which serves at 11 frontls- . piece embellishment, to the last illustrated page of dry gomls,^ every page^ls of devoted to fashion, that ruler whose I dominion is more extensive than the Jubilee Queen's. 'Hie most important fashion section is the illustrated fashion gossip; which is ablj- supported by spe--agc basques antl sleeves, lesson ta draping, dress pattern from old bodice, and * -omc winter coslumcs~nll profusely illustrated. Busy lingers will find someI \ thing to doj for the little hands and, feel ot the household in the articles on croch- ' eted footwear a id knitted mittens. Ways of folding napkins, will give the liouser keeper some new notions, ta addition to ' those which she will gain from the papc , of recipes contributed by Stlss Juliet Corson. Indies of much or littlo leisure * ] may profitably employ what they Jiavo 1 in following directions here given for - j houtton lace making, fancy work for t fancy cards, antl In pre|«'ring decontj Uons for- the Christmas tree. Those / I whose tastes take them In that direction, ' j may acquire the art of tcrra-cotta paint11 Ing, or the more important one of paintI ing portraits, from these pages. Tho Craze Club series, besides recording various craze, attempts the novel task e of teaching the art of skating by means s of diagrams and explanatory text It Is certain that great assistance ta the art of skating is given ta these pages; though '' they cannot give skates and ice. A spce rial holiday feature has been made of y tbc music of this number. It is a Christmas caotata; with soprano, alto, tenor, , and bass solos, a quartet, and chorus. rl It is entitled, "The Earth is a Mrfry-Go-II Round;" the poem Is by Hunter Mac1. Cullock, and the music by II. A. Clarke, Mus. Doc.; of the University of Penna. From n luuttyj reading we gather that !• the music is well contrasted and is cbor- - scteristic of the libretto, which describes tlic seasons as seen from the earth as it swings around the sun like a great merry-go-round. Following the magazine comes !■ that other magazine of Illustrated, deScribed, nnd priced dry goods; ^by tho aid ot which no one need lie at aloss to supply oneself with tholathst novelties in goods and patterns, without qhitting l!- the fireside, ft one is forced to stay at 1- home by stress of circumstances. .The H Quarterly Is published at 60 cents a year, " by Si raw bridge ft Clothier, of Phitadel- " ; •e What Am I To Do? [r Tho symptoms of Biliousness are un- „ happily but loo well known. They diltcr ta different Individuals to some 1 extent. A Bilious man Is seldom a breakfast ester. Too frequently, alas, j he has an excellent appetite for liquids 1 ,, but none for solids of a morning. His j tongue will hardly bear Inspection at 1. any tlrae; If It Is not white and furred, it Is rough, at all events.
