When Mrs. Hutchinson describes a portion of the soldiers on her own side as licentious, ungovernable wretches, --when Sir Samuel Luke, in his letters, depicts the glee with which his men plunder the pockets of the slain,--when poor John Wolstenholme writes to Headquarters that his own compatriots have seized all his hay and horses, so that his wife cannot serve God with the congregation but in frosty weather, --when Vicars in Jehovah Jireh exults over the horrible maiming and butchery wrought by the troopers upon the officers' wives and female campfollowers at Naseby,--it is useless to attribute exaggeration to the other side. In civil war, even the most humane, there is seldom much opening for exaggeration,--the actual horrors being usually quite as vivid as any imaginations of the sufferers, especially when, as in this case, the spiritual instructors preach, on the one side, from Curse ye Meroz, and, on the

Who can calculate the amount of good that may be done by placing in the hands of an ambitious young man the life of Havelock, or of Capt. Vicars, or of Col. Gardner?
