he community was shocked on Saturday
last by the report that Col. Ellsworth Of the
Ncw York Ioulvc tremen had been murder
ed by >ece>,ionst. The report proved bat
too true Full particulars of this dastardIy
act VII be found elsewhere. His regiment
with others was ordered to Alexandria, to
take possession Of that city. This was quiet

Ellsworth discovered the secession flag flying
from the Marshall house. With few COM
rades he lmmediate y entered the house and

to r,oo...o.l ana treason and while drscend-
ins the STAINS with the iiag in his hands he
was met 10y the keeper Of the hotel with d
d3uhIe-barelled gun who Immediately shot
him dead. And although his death was in
SANITY and tearfully avenged by his comrades
IN the killing OF his assassin, yet it was but
poor exchange of lives for our side.
Elmer f. Ellsworth was native of Me-
chanicSvIle, a village near Troy, N.Y., where
his parents LOW reside. He was the only re-
naming son, a younger brother Of great pro-
mise having died the past year. Col. Els
worth was first brought into public and ma
tional notoriety about year ago as The lea
der of a company Of Young men at Chicago
who had perfected themselves in the French
Zouave practice, and who soon after astonsh-
ed the whole country by their wonderful
feats of military exercises. They visited
many Of the principal cities of the United
States and then returned to Chicago and dis
banded.

they landed from the steamer, but every rude
Jest at the expense of Vermont Yankees was
hushed in admiration as the regiment march
cd through the main entrance upon the pa
rade ground inside the fort, for they were the
best uniformed and the largest and best pro
portioned regiment here. Col Packard OF
our regiment (the 4th) remarked in my hear

line of men before. so near of SIZE and uni

tears of gratitude and love for the old Green
Mountain state. Cheer upon cheer rent the

bows and their brave Colonel. They are
quartered now outside the fort in the llvgela
House. They pay 500 per month each
man for rent, making the snug sum $50
per month for the building. The proprietor
of the house is brother of the landlord Of
the Willard Hotel at Washington, and a Nec
