Republican Advocate Batavia, Genesee Co., NY September 2 1862 SOLDIER'S FUNERAL. The funeral of Henry BALDWIN was held at the Methodist church in Caryville, on Sunday, the 31st inst., at ten o'clock. The deceased fell at the battle of Cedar Mountain, August 9th, 1862, while facing the enemies of his country, and battling to sustain the Constitution and laws of his land. Prompted by a love of country, he enlisted in Capt. FENN's company soon after the fall of Fort Sumter. Although scarcely more than seventeen, he did not hesitate, when he saw his country's flag trampled upon by traitors, to buckle on the armor and go forth and assist in again planting the old flag in every State where it had been insulted. It was no boyish freak that thus moved him to sacrifice the comforts and enjoyments of home for the hardships and privations of the battlefield, but a manly fortitude that welled up in his breast. He left his friends and home, as he said, expecting to lay down his life and pour out his blood to sustain his country. His name will be enrolled among the martyrs for freedom on the bright scroll of liberty, when the names of traitors and cowards are buried in oblivion. "He is gone to the grave--we no longer behold him, Nor tread the rough paths of the world by his side; But his country will love him with deepest emotions, Because like a soldier he fought, bled, and died." + + During the past week War Meetings have been held here every day at 4 o'clock and in the evening at 7 1/2 o'clock. The business places in town have generally been closed at the former hour and remained so all the evening. Our citizens have laboured heartily and in earnest in raising money and men, and we are glad to say that their success has been commensurate with their labors. On every evening several volunteers have been raised--on Saturday evening nineteen came forward and were sworn in to the ranks of the defenders of the country. Meetings were held during the day on Sunday, and a number of volunteers secured, the number we cannot state to day. Our quota, however, is not yet full. + + Alexander Ahead! The people of Alexander have shown themselves even more patriotic than any of their neighbors. They have raised ten more men than their full quota, for both calls! For this glorious success much credit is due to Lewis MOULTON, Byram MOULTON, Albert ROWE, Heman BLODGETT, and others. The most, if not all, of the "Alexander boys" have gone into Capt. NUMAN's Battery. The men recruited in this county--and there can be not far from 100--are the finest body of men we ever saw together. + + VOLUNTEERS FOR THE 12TH.--Sargeant James F. TAYLOR, of the 12th Reg't.., has been in town for a few days past, recruiting for his regiment. He has already enlisted six men,, and wants 25 more. No better regiment can be found to enlist into. The Bounty of $50 offered by the State will be continued to be paid those enlisting in the old regiments until further notice. + + STATE BOUNTIES.--The Governor has issued his proclamation announcing that the Bounty offered by the State for volunteers will e continued up to the 6th inst., and to those who join regiments in the field on the 2d of July, until further notice--and to those only. + + MARRIED. At the residence of the bride, on the 28th ult., by Rev. S.M. STIMSON, Mr. Albert W. PALMER, to Miss Deborah A. BRININSTOOL, all of this place. Accompanying the above notice we received from the bride a package of splendid Wedding Cake, in return for which we render our compliments to the newly wedding pair, and wish them every enjoyment which heart can desire. DIED. In Stafford, of scarlet fever, Herman W., son of Warren and Cassandra TYLER, aged four years and six months. + + ACCIDENT.--A little girl, the daughter of J. R. COOPER, was run over by a carriage, in the procession on Saturday. She was badly injured. + + OTIS' BOOK STORE, BUFFALO.--This popular Book Store, No. 226 Main street, Buffalo, is now one of the "institutions" of the city.--Besides the general variety of theological works always to be found upon his shelves, Mr. OTIS keeps a large and very extensive variety of standard literary works, together with most of the new publications of the day. He has, also, the largest and most splendid variety of Photographic Albums to be found anywhere in the city. Some of them are very rich and beautiful, and, what is of considerable importance in these days, he sells them remarkably cheap, a fact which will be apparent to every one who gives him a call. Dealers in books in the country will find that they can buy of Mr. OTIS fully as cheap as in New York. He also keeps a rich and varied stock of Paper, and everything in the Stationery Line. + + Mrs. BRYAN's Seminary. Batavia, N.Y. The Fall Term of this School opens on Wednesday, Sept. 17th.
