IX view of the certain increas of the army by an exten sion of the Conscription act so us to include men be tween 35 and 45 years of age. the undersigned has resolved to raise a volunteer infautry company, conditional upor. the extension of the Conscript act. If this act should not HO Into effect, persons joining this company are thereby re leased from it. It is uot impossible that a bill will pass Congress Immediately enrolling all men liable to military duty. Should this bill pass, It would be too late to volun teer , and all men between the ages of 85 and 45 years o> age become conscripts. It will, therefore, be a measure oi prudence, on the part of persons liable to conscription, at once to become conditional members of a volunteer com pany. The Lieutenants of this company will be thorough officer, —one of them having served as surgeon of the Rome I.igh. Wuards in the Sth G&. Regiment. No man will be received cnto the compauy who is of known immoral or low habit 9. ‘his feature will commend it to men of character who de *re tc avoid unpleasant associations in camp.

Hi left me ! and I—l was patient; His dear letters came one by one ; ye w*3 weil, and loved us ever, be said, And Le wished that the war was done. ‘But still we must fight to the last,” he said, _ “For, darling, our laud must be free— Free and united—and so don’t weep H the land shall have need of me.” Moths passed, and the words of my hero VUere still hopeful and fond and brave— Whether h« spoke of a glad return, Or pictured a soldier’s grave.

It is well known fact that oftentimes both these jokes which are cull “practical”—and that liquor which h termed *'‘bad,” have been productive of exceedingly evil consequences ; but whet her the .liquor or tiie joke has doue the most mischief, wo are not called upon to detwmene. We propose to make mention of au affair where bad liquor and practicla jokes were [inductive of the very best con sequences imaginable Many years ago while tlje State of Geor gia w& » stiil in its infancy, an eccentic crea ture, named Brown, was one of its Circuit Judges. He was a man of considerable abil- i l y, of inflexible integrity and much beloved aud respected by all the legal profession, but ho had one common fault. His social qual ities would lead him,despite his judgement into fr-quent excesses. In traveling.the Cir cuit it was his almost invariable habit the night before opening the Court, to got “com fortably corned,” by means of appliances common upon such oceassions. If he couldn’t succeed wLaie operating upon his own hook the members* of the bar would generally 'turn in end help him. It was in ue Spring of the year; taking h'U wife-—a model of a woman in her way i —-in the old fashioned, but strong “carry all,” i that ho journeyed some forty miles, and | reached * village where “Court” was to be . opened tba next day. It was along in the evening cf Sunday that he arrived at the place and took up quitters with arelation of hi-3 “better half,” by whom the presence of an oiheial dignitary was considered a sin gular honor. After supper Judge Brown strolled over to the only tavern in the town where he found many old friends, called to the place, on important professional business and who werß properly glad to meet him. “Gentlemen,said the Judge, “His quite a long time amce we have enjoyed a glass to gether- -iet us take a drink all round. Os course, isterritt, (addressingjthe landlord) you have better liquor than you had the last time we were here the stuff you had then was not lit to give a dog. Sterritt who had charge of the house, pre tended that every thing was right, and so they went to work. It is unnecessary to en large upon a drinking bout in a country tav ern—it will quite answer our purpose to state that sou ewhere in the region of mid n ght the Judge wended his devious way to wards his temporary home. About the time he was leaving, however, some younger bar risters, fond of a “practical/’ and not much afraid of the bench transferred all the silver spoons of feterritt to the Judge’s coat pocket. It was eight o,clock of Monday morning that the Judge rose. Having indulged in the process of ablution and abstersion, aud I partaken of a refreshing breakfast, he went to his room to prepare himself for the duties I of the day. “Well, Polly,” said he to his wife, “I feel much better than I expected to feel after that frolic of last night.” “Ah, Judge,” said she reproachfully, “you are getting too old—you ought to leave off i that business.” “Ah, Polly—what ia the use of talking ] t was at the precise instant of time that 1 the Judge having put on his over coat, was * proceeding according io his usual custom, to to give his wife a parting kiss, that he hap pened in thrusting his hand into his pocket Ito lay hold of Sterritt’s spoons. He jerked >hem out. With an expression of horror almost indeftribable he exclamed— j “My God ! Polly”' “What on earth’s the matter, Judge V\ “Just look at these spoons.” “Dvar nip, where d’ye get them Y* “Get them ? Don’t you see the initials j on them ’ —extending them towards her— ‘ I stole them.” “Stole them, Jud#« “Yes, sro’e them ' “Aiy d?ar husband, a can't be possible ' from whom ” “From Sterritt, over there, his name ,* on them.” “Good Heavens ! how could it Lupp»-u ’ “I know very well, Polly —I was ve.y drunk, when i came home wasn't i ‘ “\V by!. Judge you know your old habit when you are among these lawyers. “But was i very drunk ” yuu uas. “Was I Temar/caHy drunk whru i got home Mrs. Brown.” “Yes, Judge, drunk as a fool, ami forty times as r.tupid.” “I thought, so,” said the Judge, dropping into a chair in extreme despondency—"l knew it would come to this at last, I have ! always thought that something bad would happen to rne—that [ should do something very wrong—kill somebody iu a moment of passion, j erhaps—but 1 never imagined that I could be mean euough to be guilty of deliberate larceny.” “But, there may he some mistake, Judge?” “No mistake, Polly, l know very well how it all came about. That fellow, Ster ritt, keeps the meanest sort of liquor, and always did —liquor mean enough to make a man steel, and now i have a practical illus tration ot the tact'—and the poor old man burst into tears. “Don’t be a child,” said his wife, wiping away the tears, “go like a man over to Ster ti,U him it wan a little bit of a frolic— pass it off’ as a joke—go and open Court, and nobody will ever think of it again.” A little of the soothing system 'operated upon the Judge as such things usually do ; his extreme mortification was finally sub dued, and over to Sterritt’s he went with a j tolerable face. Os course he had but little ! difficulty iu settling with him—for aside i from the fact that the Judge s integrity was unquestionable, he had an inkling of the joke that had been played. The Judge took his seat in Court,*but it was observed that he was sad and melancholly and that his mind frequently, wandered from the business before him. There was a lack of of sence and intelligence that usually char acterized his pYoceedings. Several days passed away, and the busi ness of the Court, was drawing towards a close, when one morning a rough looking sort of a customer was arraigned ou a charge of stealing ; After the Clerk had read the indiement to him, he put the question: “Guilty, or not Guilty ?” “Guilty —but drank” answered the pris oner. “What's that plea ?” exclaimed the Judge, who was half doting on the bench “He plead.s guilty, but says he was drunk,” replied the clerk, “What’s the charge against the mau ?” “Be is indicted for grand larceny” “What's the caso ?” 4 “May it please your honor,” said the prosecuting attorney, the man is regularly indicted for stealing a largo* °um from the Columbus Hotel.” “He is, hey ? and pleads,'V- “He pleads guilty, hut drank.” The Judge was now fully arrousod, “Guilty, but drunk ! that B the most ex - traordinary plea. Young man you are cer tain you were drunk “Yes, sir.” “Where did you got your liquor “At Sterritt's.” “D’ye get none no whore else Y* “Not a drop, sir.” “You got drunk on his liquor, ani after wards stole his money ?” “Yes, sir.” “Mr. Prosecutor,” said the Judge, “'do me a lavor to enter a nolle prosequi in that, man's case. That liquor of Sterritt’s is mean enough to make a man do any thing dirty. J got drunk on it flit other day my self arid stole all es S.erritt'* tpovni— release the prisoner, Mr. Sheriff, I adjourn ihe Court.” A Scene at ft. f.oiii*. The following paragraph is taken from a late number of the New York Times: The boat from St. Louis just in brings intelligence of the arrival there yesterday of the rebel prisoners from Arkansas Post.— An intelligent passenger informs me that there was a very numerous gathering upon the levee to witness, and, as it is proped, ou the*part of hundreds of open sympathizers, to welcome their arrival, and to make the occasion a kind of ovation to treason. Find ing so many friends on the dock, and so many manifestations of eympathy, and rebel prisoners gave vent to shouts and savage outcries of defiance, which were responded to from the landing. One of the privates, more impudent and tonguey thin the rest, volunteered to be spokesman for the crowd, aud, mounting a teanperary. rostrum, haran gued the assemblage for an hour in the most exciting and treasonable language.
