Died for His Country: We learn by Clark Rorapaugh, of Smithville [Chenango Co., NY], a member of the 44th (Ellsworth) Regiment, who is home on a furlough, that Wm. Weaver, of this village [Greene, Chenango Co., NY], was killed by a shell at the late battle of Bull Run, while aiding in supporting a battery. He was the first from this town to join the Ellsworth Regiment and was a brave and soldierly lad, from whom we have had good accounts since he entered the service of his country. His heroic conduct won the praises of both officers and men, and was a source of pride to the town of which he was one of the gallant representatives. We have none of the particulars of his death, but have no doubt that he met it in the performance of his duty, and that he fell with "his face to the foe."

From a Key West Soldier: Charles Atherton, formerly of this village [Greene, Chenango Co., NY], now with the 90th Reg. at Key West, Fla. writes requesting us to correct the story in circulation in relation to his decease. He says he has had the yellow fever, but it alright now, except that in common with all the soldiers stationed there, he is anxious to be where the fighting is. He says that disease has made terrible havoc among them, but they are not suffering so badly now.
Death of Harvey Hubbard, Esq.,: Died at his residence in Norwich [Chenango Co., NY], on Sunday last, Harvey Hubbard, Editor of the Chenango Union, aged 41 years. This announcement, though not unexpected, falls with a painful weight upon a community among whom Mr. Hubbard has been such a prominent and useful member. An illness of a year's duration had in a measure prepared his friends to meet this blow, but nevertheless when the solemn fact is announced that he is no more for earth, that his usefulness must hereafter depend upon the record he leaves behind, a sense of gloom pervades the breasts of all who knew him. Inheriting a well balanced intellect, Mr. Hubbard early gave evidence of genius and capacity. His familiar works both of prose and poetry, attracted much attention in former days, and but for his inclination for secluded habits and his modest aversion to seek the bubble fame, he would have ranked among the first literary characters of his day. By profession a lawyer, he was for some years a leading member of the bar of this county, but latterly he has turned his attention to the editorial profession, and has taken a prominent part in the politics of the county and State. Thoroughly educated, and possessing highly cultivated literary tastes, he has been an ornament to all spheres of life in which he has been engaged, and his death leaves a vacuum hard to be filled. He leaves an interesting family, to whom no words of consolation would be appropriate, as words cannot alleviate the crushing weight of grief which bears them down.

Sudden Death: Our village was startled last evening with the announcement that Doct. Chas. C. Willard was dead. His health from childhood has been uniformly good. For a few days only he complained of being unwell, yet was able to attend to his business as usual. He left his office at 6 o'clock last evening, and at 8 was a corpse. Only a few minutes elapsed from the time he was considered dangerous by his family before his death. Doct. Willard was the son of Doct. Augustus Willard. He graduated in 1852, since which time he has been in practice in this village. He leaves a wife and one child, together with a large circle of mourning relatives to lament his death. As a husband, a father, a neighbor and friend, as well as in his professional relations he will be greatly mourned and missed by this whole community. Doct. Willard was 33 years of age. Thus has been cut down one of our most respected citizens in the prime of life, in the zenith of his prosperity and usefulness. Verily "in the midst of life we are in death."
