Lyon on big march to Wilson's Creek, tho drummer of. our com puny waj taken sick and convoyed 'to the hospital, and on the evening preceding the day that we were to march, ft negro was ar r'eitcd within the linos of the camp and brought before our Captain who asked him bat business, ho bad within the linen?" lie replied, "I know a rummer that would ike to enlist in your company, and I come to tell you of it." lie, was iinmedittely re quested to inform the drummor that: if he would enlist (or our short term of service be would be allowed extra pay, and to do this.'hfr'muat be upoh,; the ground early in the morning; The negro was 'then passed the guard. ', ' '' " On tho following morring there appeared before ( the aptain's quarters, during the oeatirg reveille, a good looking, middle aged woman, dressed in deep mourniotr, leading by the hand a ahirp sprightly looking boy. apparently about twelve or thirteen- years old. Ilnr story was soon told. She was fiom Eist Tennessee, whero hot husband had been killed by the rebels, and all thnir prop erty destroyed. She had come to St. Louis in senrch of her sister, but not firding her, and boing destitute of money, kIio thought if she could procurj a situ .(ton for her boy as a drummer i'or the short time we had to re main in the service, she coulj find employ ment for herself and perhaps find her shter by the time we were dischargad .During tho rehearsal ol her story the lit tie fellow kopt his eyes intently fixed upon the countenance of tho Capfain, who was alioul to express a daterminat on not t': take so small a boy. when he spoke out saying Don't ba afraid CiptRin. I can drum' This was fpoken with so much confidence that the Captain immediately observed with a smile. "Well, well, Surges nt. bring 'he drum, and order our fTer to comb forward ' In a few minutes the drum was vproduced, and our filer made bis appearance, a tall round-sh uldcred g'od-natured fellow-from tho Dubuque mines, who stood, when erect , something over six feet in hight. Upon being introduced to his new comrade he stooppe l downward, with his hands resting upm his knoes Ih it were thrown for- ward into an acute anglo, and peering into tho little fellow's ftce a rcomcnt. he ob served. "My little man can you drum?'-"Ycs, sir," he answered, 'I drummed for Captain Hill in Tennessee." Our fifer imme diately commenced straightening himcclf up ward, uHil all ti e angles in his person dis. appeared, when be plnced his file to his mout i and plaved the "Flowers of Elinbor ougb," one of the most difficult tunes to fol- ow with tho drum thntconld have been se lected, but nobly did tho little fellow follow him, showing him to be a master of the drum. When the music ceased, our Captain turned to tho mother anJ observed, "Madam I will take your boy What is his name?" "Edward Lee," she replied; then placing her hand upon the Captain's arm, she continued, "Captain, if he is not killed" here her maternal feelings overcame her utterance and she be t down over her boy and kUscd him upon tho forehead. As she arose she observed, "Captain you will bring him back with you, won't you?" "Yes, yes," he roi pliod, "we will be certain to bring him back with us. Wo shall ba discharged in six wetks. In an hour after our company led the 1st Iowa out of camp, our drum and fife pitying The Girl I left behind me," Eldie, aa we called him, soon became a great favorite with all the men in tho company. When any of the boys bad returned from a horticultural excursion, Eddy's sharo of the peaches and melons was the first apportioned out. During our heavy and fatiguing march from iiolla to Springfield, it was often amusing to gee our long-luggedfiler wading through the mud with our little drummer mounted on hU back and a! way in that position when fording streams. : . The night after the fight at Wilson's Creek, where Lyon fell, I was detailed for guard dtuy. The hours passed slowly away when at length the morniig light began to streak along tho ' eastern sky, making 8urroundirg objects more plain'y visible Presently I hoard a drum boat up the morn- lnff all. At Drst I inougm n uaiu iruui the camp of the enemy across the creek; but as I listened I found that it came from the deep ravine; for a few minutes it was silent and then as t becsme more light I heard il ... . j again. 1 listened tne souna o: taa arum was familiar to me and I knew that it wag ': ' Our drummer boy from Tennessee, i Beating lor help the reveille, i ' I was aboat to desert my post to go to hi assistance when I discovered the officer o the guard approaching with two men. , We all listened to the sound, and were satisfied that'll wag EJd--'g drum.:.

' J promised to be back in that time, trheri he consented: - 1 Iron diateiy started dewn the bill throngh the thick undergrowth, and, upon reaching the valley. I followed tne sound ol the drum, and soon found him seated upon the ground, his ' back ' leaning against the i trunk ol a falleri " tree, while his dront hung upon a bush in front of him, reaching nearly to the eroitnd. , As soon' as be discovered me, he dropped bit drum sticks, and ex I . .. claimed, "Oh, corporal, I am go glad to see you!

I requested the ifficcr to take Eddy up in front of him, and he did so, carrying him with great ten derness and care.'

' How John Brown fJav "d tho Capital. The Washington correspondent of the Boston Journal tells the fallowing singular story of the way. in which John Btowu's famous raid into Virginia becumo the remote cause of the salvation ot the Federal capital; "When the marines dashed np to the door of tho engine house, where Virginia Chivalry quailed, they seizad not only John Brown but a quantity of powder within tho buiUing, which he had brought from Pennsylvania. After Brown and his party were socurcd, the powder was placed in one of tho brick buihl-ings where it remained till April last. When the United States troops found that tho Virginia forces ere preparing ti make a descent upon the Ferry for tho purpose of capturing the arras, they looked about for ammunitirn. They did not dare to visit, the magazine, for there were sharp eyes which watched every movement, and an attempt to take from there would precipitate an attack. Than it was thut John Brown's powder was valuab'e. It was in snitll packages, and where it could be taken and distributed unbeknown to any outsiders. It was placid in the different buildings, the trains were laid, and just as the Virginims thought the prize was theirs they found that theflimcs wore ahead of them. It was designed that the several thousand stand of arms there stored should be distributed in Baltimore, where, as you know, the outbreak immediately oc cuired, and that thence a descent wo'tld be made upon Washington. So John Brown's powder saved the capital. All of this will appear, I am informed, with satisfactory evi. dence, in the report of the committee appointed to investigate the Ihrpor's Ferry alfsir.

The New York Times publiahea a letter which it editorially endorses as from "a per son who speaks from the highest possible authority" from which we extract as follows. It is certainiy encouraging and hopeful: . . . , WAsnitJOTOs, Sunday, Jan. 1?. My Dba'b Sib: You do quite right to hold fast to your faith in Goneral McClellan. I can understand your own impatience and that 6f the public but the greatest faultfinders, and most' timid and faint-hearted patriot, will bo all aglow with admiration, and admit with mingled shame on the part of cavaliers, and pride in the hearts nf all true men, that the delay has be-n imperative, and thct the apparent inactivity nf Gen. McClellan has ' been bu" a compul ory part, of his grand plan of the canipaign.and a precuiser of vaste-and more comprehensive results in consequence There is I am aorry to say, an active clique her11 who are trying to injure G?n.

Any attempt to weaken him with the army, in 'be.- lespects, would be a calamity to be deplored by tho whole nation. Tbe full fruition of all aur hopen is at hand. I repeat, keep stt-adlast in ' our laiih in Gen. McClellan, lor which yuu have good cause, and all will goon tie well. I wiiie warmly alout Gen. McC.ellan, le-causo 1 know and love the man. Vourtug-gestions to attuck Manassas rvtn at the risk o defeat,.on the ground thatwah.d baler be beaten than rot to puicea, is rot like your uaual good sense. Any military man would tell you tbat to burl our forces against tb.se strung intrenebmcnts would be sheer madness. But Gen. cCie.lan hasiheta caught in their ou trap. They are like a !ox in a burrow with one hole, they u.ust ou be oiced out, and tben Gen. McClellan will fall upon them like a tliunderbo.i. The public will not then compuiu of his want ol energy. 1 tell you it will bo go fearful ag to have wail, ing aud mourning go up Irutn evury Southern household, Know-ng what 1 do, and have tn us but barely hinted at as the grand plao of the campaign, I tepeat that the rebels are doomed, and secession will never a, a n raise its nydra head in the land. Tho lolds of the giant constrictor are tightening around the rebellion, and tho coming mouth will ace il crushed out completely and foiever. Again I say, look out lor "a short war and a d" perate one." Youia ever. A Good, Hearty Denunciation of Givai Britian.
