Two of three sisters are mar ried in Jefferson County, New York, and the other in Cincinnati. He is himself a bachelor, lis entered the army from West Point in 1837, Second Lieutenant First Artillery, and was proim ted to First Lieutenant in 1838, Adjutant Mil itary Ai'sdsmy in 1814, Regimental Ad jutant 1841 to 1840. Throughout the Mexican war, in all its hard conflicts, he was well known as one of 'the bravo,' as he is now so well known in this strug gle. He was breveted Captain in 1846 "lor gallant conduct in the several con flicts at Monterey on the z 1st, TM ami 23d of September 1840,' lirevotted Cap tain Stali Assistant Adjutant-General 1847, am! again in the same year hro vttted Major, "for gallant and merit o rous conduct at National Bridge." Bie vetted L'eutcnant-C'olonel in the same year, also "lor gallant and ineritoions conduct in the battle of Cliepiiltepec." Thus much for bis career in the Mexican campaign. In 184e he rose in regular line of proniotioD in his regiment to a full cup- tiancy, and iu the same year vacated bis regimental cominifdon and accepted the appointment of Ani-lant Adjiilant-Gon- rail with the rank of Captain, which po sition he continued to till till in 1853, when he renigiied while on duty in Cal ifornia, purchased a tract of land, mid became a farmer in Sonoma, on the Bay of San Francisco. From this employ ment when the Government made an appropriation lor a National road con necting Ualilumia and Ureon, lie was summoned to superintend that enterprise or Colonel uaclie, of the 1 onograpluciil engineer corps, who was in charge of t'lat appropriation, and who well under stood his capacity and fidelity. Gener al Hooker had just linished this work re turned to California when, like Cincin nattis. he was literally summoned from his plough to fight the battles of his coun try, At the first reverberation of the ar tillery of Fort Sumpter upon the shores of the Pacific, he started immediately for the field of conflict, an I on his arrival w in Mnv 1801, mndo Ilrigidier-Gen-ral of Volunteers, and placed in corn- maud of the first and Eleventh Massa vhusetts, Second New Hampshire and Twenty-sixth Pennsylvania Ilegimenls then located at lilailenstiurg, anil which in their triumphant subsequent career, have, under their noble leador so fuu ly earned tho name of "Hooker's Fighting lirigade. ' General Hooker was strongly solicited while in Oregon to allow his mime to be nd in connection with the Tnitod States Senate. He, however, not only neclinea the suggestion, but joining hands with Senator Nosmith, canvassed the whole State with him, and w.is thus confessedly a main instrument in placing In that body th lamented Baker, who was his bosom friend.

In social intercourse he is frank, un pretending and com toons, removing em larassment from even the humblest per sonage who approa has hir. It is only at the head of his command and in the storm of battle, that he arrays himself in the stern and lofty aspect of the com manding, heroic military chieftain. His traucen lent career in this rebellion is fa milllar to all. He has in the most em- ri hat id as well as triumphant manner, iterally fought his way to the present elevation. Tho wonder is that lie was not placed in a different position ut the neninz of the rebellion. New York Timet. Sao Aooidunt A Tcrmm. Wan ino. A young lady named Miss. II.

She immedi ately sprang to her feet, and although an Hurt was made to detain her, made her way to the platform and sprang from the tens but her clo'hing caught on the car and she was, in some way thrown 'under the train, and the wheels pased over both feet, cutting them completely off; one a few inches ac,v the ancle, and the oth er at the ancle.

A brief dispatch from Dayton, on Sat urday, announced that J. F. Bollmeyer, editor of the Empire newspaper of that city, was shot in that place, Saturday morning, by a hatter named Henry M Firown. and killed almost instantly. Frum a centleinan who was at Dayton at the time, and is acquainted with the parlies, we hive the lol lowing particu lars: Some woeks since a son of Mr. Brown, who was wounded iu some engagement, returned homo, and while suffering from his injuries was a good deal disturbed by the dogs in the neighborhood, ana par' ticularly by a dog belonging to Mr. Bolb mever. After yountr Brown had recov ered sufficiently tc be able to return to his regiment, ho went out to vis it his friends previous to his departure, and returning home late at night, he was set upon by three or four dogs, in an al ley which separates the rosidenco rf his lather from that of Mr. Bollmeyer. lie succeeded in reaching the house in safety, and arming himself with his revolver he returned to the alley and tired at the dogs, killing one, which happened to bo the properly of Mr. Bollmeyer. This dog was a very valuable one, and tho killing of the animal caused some feeling between Mr. tirown ami Mr. Bollmeyer. On Friday evening, it being Hallow Evening, the young people of Dayton ob served the anniversary by morrymak ing and committing little acts of mis chief, such as pulling door-bells and then hiding, and other acts of amusement. Mr. liollmoyor had been a good deal an noyed during the evening by having his door bell pulled, and determined to stop it, ami accordingly he posted himself near tho door, pieparcd to open it the moment the bell ritngt In a very few minutes on urchin ap proached and pulled the knob, when Mr, B.Jmmediately rushed out, overtaking the lad, ho kicked him with such vio lence as to throw hi in down, hurting him rather sevcroly. As lortunti would have it, the bo) was a son of Mr. Brown, and ho crawled homo, and told his father what hud occured. This only served to in crease tho ill feeling already ongendorcd toward Mr. Hollmover hy Mr. Jlrown and on Saturday morning ihe two met in tho street, the formor going lo, and the latter returning from market. Mr. Brown accosted Mr. Bollmeyer, complaining of the treatment of his son, when hard words passed between them, ami it was understood that Bollmeyer made certain threats as to whnt ho would ilo, and as he was in the act of putting his basket down on the sidewalk, Brown drew a revolver and shot him in the neck, killing him almost instantly. Wo are assured that no political quar rel existed between tho parlies, hut that tho cause of the difficulty mid the facts are as stated ubovo. Mr. Brown immediately surrendered himself to tho authorities and was lodged iu fail. Tho friends of Mr. Bollmeyor be cjmo very milch excited, pir-jeeded to the jail and attempted to get possession of Sir, Brown for tho pcrposo ol exoout ing him; but the mob was dispersed by llio Slaynr and police. In tho evening the mob reassembled and proceeded to the jail with two swivels, purposing to Utter down the doors, but tho guns were captured by the police. During the excitement four persons were wounded one soverly. The Mayor of Dayton apprehending serious troublo, telegraphed to Major General Wright for assistance, and five companies of United States regulars were sent up in a special train, from tho bar racks in this city on Saturday evening. All. was quiet yesterday, arid no further distuabaiiio was apprehended. A coroner's inquest was held on Sat urday night, and wo shall bo ahlo to pub lish farther particulars of the case in our next issue. Destitution of the Rebel Army. We have had of late, a contrariety of statements in regard to the rebel commis sariat, and hygienic condition. One cor respondent assures the public that star vation is inevitable, that they are suffer ing ovory deprivation, and that sickness, to an alarming extent, prevails. An other writer givos glowing pictures of the overflowing abundance of tho Valley of Virginia, and describes the untouched ac cumulations of forage, and countless herds gracing peacefully upon ft thousand hills. In the midst of this conflicting testimony no satisfactory conclusion is attainable. It seems difficult, howev er, lo presume that there can beany such abundance remaining in the vicinity of the vast armios, to say nothing ol the multitudes of ' non-producing people whose necessities must he pressing, ami whom the presence of battle has shut out from productive employment. In aid of this conclusion wa hsvfl now th statement from the Richmond Whig, which unreservedly disclossoa tho desti tute and deplorablo condition of the reb el army. I he lug alludes to tho mat ter in an editorial, written to rouse citi zens to the necossity of liberality and ex ertion. It says tneir iniormation is de rived from person who had been with the army for many months. It elleges that their numbers aro increased; but as serting "emphatically and positively that iheit condition is rtoploralilo, ihe Whig sas large numbers of them were barefooted, in rags; and covered with vermin; and those in tho hospitals at Winchester were the victims of the most cruel neglect." After speaking of thoir marches, the Whig proceed to describe their condition as follows: "Indeed we "learn from a gentleman, who speska "from personal observation, that it was "no uncommon thing to pas men on the "nwoh whose miserable outfit -was not "sufficient to hida their nakedness. "Soma were without shirts, others had "on the dirty remnant ofa pair of pants, "without shoes, and almost without caps "or hats. Some were barefooted, others had on ragged socks but no shoes, while one man he aav was destitute of cap j and shoes, and bad on leg of his pants I "torn entirely away! Let it be remeni "bered, too, that many of these troops, "thus ragged and destitute, and limping "along on feot covered with stonebruises, "had been reared up in luxury, and ac customed to all the comforts which "wealth an! industry can supply." Bad as this picture represents them to be as to the camp, it seems that those in the hospital at Winchester were still more unfortunate; as for them the editor says: "Up to the 15th instant we are "assured that the Medical Department "has not furnished a solitary cot, bed "sack, sheet, pillow, or change of cloth "ing foi these unfortunates. With the "siijtjo exception of the York Hospital, "wfru was formerly occupied by the "Yankees, and where they had left a com "plete outfit of hospital furniture the "sick and wounded were huddled to-goth-"or upon tho dirty floor in manv in stances without a wisp of straw betweon "their aching banes and the hard plank! "At Hollingsworth Grove large num "hers wore placed under tent flies, with "nothing to protect them against the "cold night air and driving mountain "mists. A few cases are reported where "tho patients are as naked as babies just "born, thoir scanty clothing having been "lorn off to dress their wounds, and but "for a blanket borrowod from a comrade "they would have been totally destitute "of any covering save the narrow fly that "had been stretched above them! This is certainly a pitiful picture of suffering to which tho rebel soldiers are subjected by the insane ambition of a few pitiless men. And yet tneir leaders nave managed to hold at bay and even repulse our great army, supplied as no other army that ever trod the earth was supplied. To account for this there is but one con clusion: our leaders have been outoeneti a led bv tho rebel leaders. 0. S. Jour. The President hns heard of the Elec- tious. Senator Wilson of Slassachnsetts made a speech at Cambridgeport, Tuesday evening, in I ho report, of which wa no tice the following statement: The other day I called on tho Presi dent with an earnest Douglas Democrat of Slassachnsetts. Tho news had just como to the President of these defeats of his supporters in those States, and the President seemed bowed down, as I have seen him bowed down, when intelligonco of tho defeat of our armies in tho field (nine upon him and ho said; "I con loss that I am grieved at tbs results of these elections. Tin's intelligence will gq to Europe; it will bo construed there as a condemnation of the war; it will go into tjio land of the rebellion, and will en courage tho leading rebels and nerve the arms of tho rebel soldiers fighting our men in tho field. Jt is true," said the President "many of theso men elected profess to bo war democrats; but the res olutions of their convention, tho tone of their leading presses, nnd their genoral action, will be construed everywhere against tho cause of our country." Camp Dennison Affairs. There aro now about 2,780 men nt Camp Denni son, as follows; sick ond convalescent in hospitals, 1,500; in 109th regiment, 400; in tho 119th, 100: recruits for different iilfantry regiments, 300; recruits for dif ferent cavalry regiments, 200; drafted men and substitutes from Hamilton and Slontgomory Counties, 280. A dress parade of all tho able bodied, men in camp was hold last Saturday evening. Jt was a line alfuir, conducted by Colonel M. P. Nolan, of the.lUUth regiment by invitation of bis brother of ficers. Colonel Nolan, by tho way, is spoken of as a very accomplished officer. Cm. (Juz. of Mumluy last. Established Violence. Thore is n policy which talks of peace, hut which means the surrender of the Government to tho enemy, tho disarming of the North, tho placi g of tho power of tho nation in the hands of traitors, the triumph of tho rebellion, nnd the estab lishment ol a domination ol violence in tho Government. What difference is there between a proposition to soek peace by tho snvrender of tho army and navy to the enemy, and a proposition to seek poaco by giving the enemy the con trol of the Government which commands the army and navy ami all the military power of the nation? If anv, it is in fa vor of the surrender of the army and na vy, for the people might still turn out another. Yet wa have a party organi zation talking of peace by terms which II place the enemy in power; and agi tating lo prevent tho Government from ringing the enemy to submission. .- Would the nature of tho Southern reb- ols bo changed by their triumph and res toration to power? Was rebellion evoi made loss arrogant by success? The Southern Democratic leaders rebelled be cause i ho popular election ousted them from tho Administration. , Would their vioiory in this contest make them more likely to submit to such a verdict of tho popular election next time? On the con trary, their restoration to power would be the commencement of military prepa ration on a great scalo, to bold tho con trol of tho Government against another popular verdict. Then, in order to re cover their rights, the people would have to make a revolution against rebels hav ing possession of the army, navy, arms and financial means of the nation.

Prentiss went largely into the cir cumstance of maltreatment wnich he and his fellow prisoners suffered at the hands of the infernal heathens, of the South, among whom tbey so unfortunately fell. In the course of his speech he gave the following account of the brutal hanging of some Ohio prisoners: At Atlanta, confined in a court house, we perceived a large procession coming up the street, t .vo or three wagons and a great concourse of men, women and children following. When they were opposite to ns we beheld some men rise in the wagons and raise their caps to us. Wo counted them. They were on their way to the gallows. They were United States soldiers from the State of Ohio, and were taken out and hung within two hundred yards of our prison. The rope broke with two of thern. They were compelled to stand and behold tho strug gle of the other five until they were dead. Then tbey were strung up too, and paid the penalty for doing what? For en deavoring to get to our linos.

Be Your Own Right Hand Man1 Pooplo who have been bolstered up and levered all their lives, aro seldom good for anything in a crisis. When misfor tune comes they look around for some body to cling or lean upon. Once down, they aro as helpless as capsized turtles, or unhorsed men in armor, and cannot find their feet again without assistance. Such silkon fellows no more resemble self-mado mon, who have fought their way to position, making difficulties their stepping stones, and doriving determina tion from thoir defeat, than vines resem ble oaks, or -spluttering rushlights tho stnr of heaven, Efforts porsistod to achievements train anion toself-roliance, and when ho ha proved to tho world that ho can trust himself, tho world will trust him. We say, thoroforo, that it is unwise to deprive young men of tho' ad vantages which result from the energetic aotion, by "boosting" them over obsta cles which he ought to surmount alone. No one ever swam well who placed his confidence in a cork jacket; nnd if when breasting the sea of lifo, wo cannot buoy onrsolvos up and try to force onrselyos ahead by dint of our own energies, we are not salvage, and it is of little conso- quenco whether we, "sink or swim, sur vivn or perish." One of tho best lessons a father can give to his son is this: "Work; strength en your moral and menial faculties, as you would your muscles, by vigorous ex- lercise. Learn to connuer circumstances. yon are then independent of fortune. The mon of athletic minds who leavo their marks on tha years in which they lived, were all trained in a rough school. Thoy did not mount thoir high position by tho help of leaverage; they leapt into chasms, and grapple ! with tha opposing rocks, avoided avalanches, and when tho goal was reachod, felt that but for the toil that had strengthened them as they strove, it could never have been attained. &.WA brother in a prayor-moeting praveit for 1 rosulont Lincoln that he might be as wise as a serpent and harm less as a dove!

Department,) , Columbus, Oct. 2, 1862, j The time honored custom adopted by the Father of our State, for setting apart one day in each year for praise, thanksgiving and prayer to Almighty God, for his goodness and mercy to us as a people, should be preserved. Especial ly at a time like the present, should all good citizens unite, in laying aside the ordinary business of life, at least for a day, and devote themselyes to the teach ings of their Maker. , Tho effort made by the legally consti tuted authorities of the land to put down the wicked rebellion against the Federal Government, the best ever enjoyed by any people, in which tho gallant sons of Ohio have borne so conspicuous and proud a part, has filled every neighdor hood with mourning. Our brave sol diers are yet exposed to the dangers of j the field of battle and the hardships and sickness of camp life; and, our system of government, in form after God s own laws, and so gentle that its reins were scarcely felt by the governed, is yet in peril. Our Heavenly Father can console the distressed, and heal the sorrows of the mother' and widow's heart; He can pro tect from danger onr patriotic soldiers now in tho field; Ho con paralize the arm of tho enemy of onr good Government: Now, therefore, in obedience to the ro qnost of the General Assembly of the Slate of Ohio, and to the end that a sim ultaneous petition to Him may ascend to Heaven from all parts of onr State, I do hereby fix upon, nnd set apart, Thursday, the 27ih day of November next, as a day of praise, thanksgiving and "Jirayre, to AJmighly God! And I do recommend that, abstaining from all business pur suits, the good-nnd pure-minded people of our State meet together at thoir usual places ot worship, and with one voice. humbly ask the God of all nations to smilo upon tho distressed of our land that Ho give wisdom and pmity to those in authority; that He prostrate the ene mies of our Government; and that, in all things, He givo such wisdom to all the people of the earth as will enable them to conform to His laws, to the end that peace and good-will shall prevail througli out the world.

Lebanon Slur. Do not Despise the Shop. The importance of mechanical training and of habits of regularity and method, cannot bo overestimated in their varous bearings upon tho relations of life, nnd wo would say to those young men who are at this moment struggling through details which appear to be hard, nscle s and lull of weariness, to hold on! their utility may not be apparent nt present, but tho day is suro to come when they will reap tho benefit of such discipline and routine, Hold on! don t give np; in onr country no social prejudices pre vail which prevent the humble dyer from becoming ihe learned and skilllal chem ist; no barriers exist which deprive those whom tho chances of life have made rude and unlettered, from becoming shining lights in the world of science. , Most great inventors have sprung from tho ranks of the brave daily workers, and the field is still a wide one, expanding every day; therefore we say "hold on" to the training of tho shop improve ymir spore hours in mental culture, and reward is certain.
