Commodore Tatnall, who is reported to be
the commander Of the rebel forces at Beau
fort S. c., is an old officer of the U. S. navy,
appointed from Georgia. He was considered
an experienced and skilful officer, and has
held some very responsible positions. He
was in command of the U. S fleet in China at
the time the allied French ard English made
the attack on the Chinese forts. On that &C.
casion he suffered his feelings to lead him into
the strife, and was very much complimented
by the English for the assistance lie rendered
one of their grounded gunboats. Among his
friends at the north he was always held in the
highest estimation as noble hearted friend, a
since and devoted patriot. During the sum.
mer OF 1860 he passed a few days in this vicin-
ity The bitter imprecation upon the heads
of traitors then uttered by him on a public
occasion will not be forgotten by those who
heard him. "Palsed be the hand or tongue of
him who first attempts the dissolution Of this
glorious Union" While in Boston, he i'm.
proved his opportunity to call upon venera-
Bile friend and fellow commander i'll the
navy, Captain z. of d. They had not
met for years. The past and present were
frehearsed The fountains OF sacred memories
were stirred, and they laughed and wept to.
gether. On taking leave of his friend, Tat.
nall remarked, 81 shall see you again, p,
next summer. Before next summer Old
Jack will be in his grave" was the earnest
and touching reply. Before that summer
came, at the first tap of the secession drum,
the oath of allegiance to traitors had been pIo-
nounced by the lips, if not by the heart, of
Tatnall. When news of this came to the ear
OF his old friend in the north, he exclaimed,
"Would to God old Jack had been in his
grave before hearing such tidiugs as this" A
few days brought letter from his friend Tat
NALL closing with these words q little
thought when l last saw you, my dear p,
that my cid tried friend and / were to serve
under different fiags-but the politicians would

amazed, scorntul, and vexed. "a traitor TO
his flag, THE politicians would have it so"-
Poor Tatnall." Then rising resoutely from
his chair, he continued Gle was noble
feliow-but I'd hang him, dearly as l love
him. Yes, I'd send him 10 the yard arm if the
devil stood there to catch him"

THURSDAY. NOVEMBER IA, 1901.

The news sent from Port Royal by the
Bienville fully confirms the previous reports
received through secession channels, excepting
that our vessels dill not suffer during the
bombardment, as the rebels represented. The
victory was complete, and has produced a very
great effect in South Carolina and Georgia
1t is certainly one Of the mos important
movements that have been made or pIahhed'
since the war began. 1t was execute"
in the most gallant style, and the navy
must have the chief glory Of the achievement;
not that the troops were not ready for the
tray, but circumstances made it necessary for
the men.ofwar to assume the battle with the
forts, and they we're cqnal to the occasion.
That bombardment was spectacle such as
but few have seen, Gen. Sherman does justice
to the naval officers and those under them
Very important consequences must follow this

INFAMOUS The skin OF John Browns son
has been tanned and handed round at the
south as valuable memento OF southern
Valor !-Erchqnqe.
We should utterly discredit this sickening
statement, were it not that some of the south
ern papers are advertising the ghostly relic.
A gentleman writing from Virginia sends what
lie vouches for as piece of the skin Of the
thigh OF young Brown, tanned to order by the
chivalry of the "Old Dominion" and exhibit
ed to gaping crowds at hotels and evening
parties Pieces of it have been distributed
through the confederate army, for the purpose,
we presume, of inspiring the valiant sons OF
Secessia with becoming frenzy against the
"Vandai hordes" of the north. The same
gentleman advises us that it was the intention
to honor the remains of the venerable hero
of Harper's Ferry in similarly distinguished
way, by having them thrown from the cars
before reaching Baltimore, and substituting
false coffin; but the scheme failed of execu-
ton, through the tmidity of the conductor.
The young lady who prayed her lover to favor
her with "Linken's SCALP" and the old lady
who begged for a sufficient number of the
same CORY keersakes to make counterpart
for her bed, have evidently large number
OF "adniring friends" down in Dixie.-Al6any

The MASSACRE AT GUYANDoTTE.-Ihe
treacherous and cold-booded murder of por'
ton of the Union troops at Guyandotte on the
Ohio river, was one of the most atrocious acts
of barbarism yet recorded against the rebel
lion. Residents OF the town invited the tede
raj soldiers to their houses, extended to them
the most cordial hospitality and having thrown
them off their guard by many expressions of
cordially and friendship, raised upon their
houses preconcerted signals for their watchtul
accomplices, who rushed upon the unarmed
federal soldiers and assassnAted them wher.
ever they could be found, women and children
joining in the slaughter. For the credit Of
human nature, it is hoped that the report of
this bloody and wicked massacre may be ex
aggerated, and that some light may yet be
thrown upon the utter blackness OF the
crime.
