Pants shoes-Col. Kelley.

A letter from Grafton, Va, June llth
to the Cincinnati Gazette, says
1t turns out that the pantaloons furnish
ed to the Fifteenth were never inspected
at Columbus ut all. The regiment re-
ceived orders to march on six hours no.
ticc, and the Governor telOgraphed to some
ono at Cleveland to inspect the uniforms
on hand there, and ship them at once, by
special train, direct to the regiment. A
partial payment has been made, and that
much money is gone. What the people
want to know now is, who inspected those
uniforms at Cleveland? Out with his
namel .I.Jl 4 40 .... .lIl
1t seems that Ohio has not been alone
in suffering from the scoundrelism of con-
tractors. A lot of shoes, belonging to the
rebel forces, were captured at Phillippi.-
Our troops thought they had made CAPT
tai haul. and at once appropriated the
much needed article. Scarcely pair last
ed more than a single day The SolcS
,oere made Of GOOD. glued to tile uppers,
and covered ,oith stained paper! Let us
hear no more of Yankee wooden nutmegs,
when the Old Dominion sends out her
troops "to battle for their liberties" with
paper soled shoes.
Col. Kelley continues to improve slow
ly. The inhammatory stage has passed
and though the wound is dangerous one,
there are no fears now about his recovery.
The Colonel says he hopes soon to be able
to pay his respects to his secession friends
on the field once more. Symmes the reb-
el who shot him, is still confined here.

Health Of Gen. Scott

A correspondent Of the Boston Adver
tiser writes from Washington: 1e 1s,
On Sunday | had the pleasure Of an in.
teryiew. in company with friend, with
General Scott. SO much has been said Of
his health that | am happy to be able to
speak authoritatively upon the subject.
Our interview was Of at least an hour. and
in the course Of it | said to him that CIV.
erybody felt deep interest in his preser.
vation. and begged to know what !
might report when | reached home, as to
his health. He said that some time ago
be received fall in passing down a stair.
way. by which his limbs were partially
paralyzed by blow upon his spine, and
that he rose or walked with some little
difficulty; but that besides that, his health
was excellent. And / can add that if a
free, brisk, unem barassed conversation Of
an hour, lpon great variety of topics,
can furnish any test Of quckness and Wig
or Of intellect, the country has no cause to
apprehend that the General is not as ca
pable to plan and carry out campaign as
when he started on his memorable march
from Vera Cruz to Mexico. With such a
man to plan. and such men to execute, il
only needs time to mature and provide for
the discipline of the troops, to plant thC
stars and stripes again upon every fort,
custom house and navy yard in the circuit
of rebellion. rf.. ...i i......

England and France Must Stand by

From Tie Londen Herald tDerbyits.) }

I From the Jonden Herald (Derbyits) y.a
The Governments Of France and Great w
Britain are scarcely likely to differ on The
policy to he adopted in the present crisis
and it is not improbable that this question
has already been discussed by the two
Cabinets The Emperor Napole, resi-
ded for some time in the United States.
and isfully competent to judge Of the rela.
tive strength of the rival sections; and
when n. Thouvencl declared that the
maintenance Of the Union is necessary for
the interests Of France he doubtless spoke
the sentiments of his master. The Empe-
ror Napoleon is opposed to disruption Of
the Union, and it is rumorcd that he has
even gone so far as to offer aid to Prcsi-
ident Lincoln against the seceders. We
have no means Of ascertaining what are r
the intentions of our own Government, OF
the individual opinions Of any statesmen
IN the Cabinet; but we do not believe it
will conduce 10 the welfare of Great Brit q

DEATH OF LIEUTENANT GREBLE.-Licu-

Pennsylvania by birth, and for the last
four or five years has been stationed at
West Point A few months since he mar
ried Miss Clara French, daughter of the
Rev. Mr.. French, chaplain at West Point,
and was among the first who received or.
ders from his government to repair to
Washington to assist in protecting the flag
of his country. He was modest but
highly accomplished young officer, and was
much beloved both in and out of the army.

Last Words of Senator Douglas.

From the Chicago Journal, 4th inst.
For long time previous to his death,
Senator Douglas had been in a semi-con.
cious condition. During the morning of
his death, his mind and energies rallied
somewhat. AS his devoted and loving
wife sat at his bedside, soothing and cas-.
ing him with those tender words and ac-
tiOns which only great hearted woman
can employ, she asked the dying statesman
if he had any message to send to his boys,
Stephen and Robert. He seemed at first
not to hear the questions and she repeated
it. Rallying his strength, his eye kind
led up and his whole frame seemed to d.
late. as he answered: .fai ttr
"YEs! TELL THEM TO OBEY THE LAWS,
AND SUPPORT THE CONSTITUTION OF THE
UNITED STATEs" rhrh r ~r
A short time after he desired to be raised,
and his wish was complied with, 80 that
he might look out from his window once
more, upon the city which had loved and
honored him so long. One of his friends
expressed doubt as to the case Of his po-
sitiOn, when he simply replied-"he is
comfortable In his dying moments he
family articulated: Death, death, death,
and his great soul had passed away.

The Spiked Columbiads.

Mr.. W. McClecry, who was sent by the
proprietors Of the Fort Pitt" Works to
Baltimore, to remove the spikes from the
Columbiads recently spiked by some Sc
cossionists there has returned. He states
that the files used in spiking the guns
were of the rat tail kind, fastened at the
point by soft nail. Before Mr. McClee-
ry arrived. an effort was made, but with
Ous success, to remove them by blowing
them out. The spikes were allowed to re-
main, and new vents were bored to the
guns by Mr.. McCleery. The guns are
now as good as ever, and are ut present at
Fort McHenry. The great. Union" gun
was at the depot at Baltimore on Monday,
with heavy guard over it. Hereafter
our guns will be shipped vent down, which
will preclude their being interfcred with.

Dear CAronicle:-I will give you few
items, fearing that it will be some time be-
fore an opportunity again presents as good
fOr writing as the present.
This morning several Of our company
were passed into town. and for the first
time since leaving Camp Taylor, sat down
TO dinner around the table Of private cit
izen. ..
Allow me here to speak Of the many
acts Of kindness shown toward our compa-
ny by our former citizen and friend Mr..
lcggett. Immediately after our arrival in
camp, Mr.. i. came to US and extended
general invitation to our company, one and
all. to make his house cur stopping place
when in town; he also said that his house
was open to usas hospital for any among
us that might be taken sick. 1t is need
less to cay that we have availed ourselves
Of his invitation. 1t is pleasant to meet
with instances Of such generous hospitali-
ty as Mr.. and Mrs. l.. and family, have
shown toward us. "LOng live they in our
mem ory."
Lieut.. Col Hollingsworth arrived in
camp this morning from Virginia, and
brought with him orders for our marching.
Our duty will be to guard the B. & o. r.
H. from Wheeling to Grafton, distance
of 100 miles.
The receipt of that box of sundries, the
gift of the Warren friends, l notice has
never publicly acknowledged. 1t followed
us, and was opened here We all feel
greatly indebted to our friends for that and
other marks of their favor. p
For the benefit of our friends, let me
say, that all mail matter should be direc.
ted to us, here, until further notice; write
plainly the name of the Captain, No. of
Company, and Regiment; also ITO follow
the Regiment" @ Yours,
