Afthdugh so slightly bnilr, ninety-nine men out of a hundred would be no match for him at fighting. He is a dead shot, a fine fencer, i thorough horseman, and a master of the dagger or bowie-knife. 7 His personal bravery ha3 been unquestioned, and many 'of 'his friends have wondered why he did not join the rebel army, in which hi3 sympathies were already enlisted." number of men actually surrendered to Grant by Lee was about twenty -two thousand.

The funeral services, on the death of Prcsi 'dent Linroln, took place last Sabbath afternoon.

Rev. M. Reynolds, of Fort Riley, officiating-The attendance was unusually large. We give extracts on our first page from Mr. Reynolds address.

0Wedncsday afternoon our neighborhood was visited with a "right smart" hail storm. Balls of ice as large as common marbles made a 'Vattle for some time. In tlie night we had a heavy warm rain, and in the morning the grass seemed almost an inch higher. (TTMr. M.

Good Thing. At Fort Zarah a few days ago, a ihing expressed satisfaction at the death of President Lincoln, whereupon a Colorado soldier rprang at him, and broke his skull in with the utt of his revolver.

J. II. Hawley will preach to-mor--row at eleven o'clock. Mr. Hawley has been "detailed" by the M.

E. General Conference to look after the spiritual welfare of the people of Junction, and it is to be hoped he will receive a most cordial welcome, and a hearty assistance in building up a religious sentiment. 0A Lieutenant was placed in the guard house at Fort Itiley, one day last week, for expressing in some way satisfaction at the murder of the President. The account we have of him would indicate that if he is to be punished at all, it should be for not having good sense. He belongs to the galvanized outfit.

One of the guard shot at him at the time but missed him. Trenworth naneri are hatini; alivelv ior of those eal- kiuis "va a yanired rebels in their neighborhood, who wear Uncle Sam's garb of blue. They are accused with having used language unbecoming loyal soldiers. We have a regiment beyond us, but they are civilly disposed, or else their company seems as a restraint upon them. The 2d Colorado wouldn't listen to any of their treason.
