afternoon, brings the following information from
the Sea-ssIands: On Monday last while at Senth

St. Helena Ship Bar, the side wheel boat leading.
Theyt;lE went rapidly up to position near Otter

could ancover any masked batteries, and finding
none they ventured to land in their boats. Capt.

Singular Incident.

We were yesterday informed by gentleman of
an incident remarkable alike for its sngularity as
well for its melancholy fullment to the brother
of one of the parties concerned. Just before the
war broke out, and before Lincoln's proclamation
was issued,a young Firginian, named Summerfield
was visiting in the city Of New York, where he
made the acquaintance of the two Misses Holmes,
from Waterbury, VT He became somewhat inti
mate with the young ladies' and the intercourse
seemed to be mutually agreeable. The proclama
ton was issued, and the whole North thrown into
a blaze of excitement. Upon visiting the ladies
one evening" and at the hour of parting, they re-
marked to Summerfeld that their present meeting
would probably be the last, they must hurry home
to aid in making up the overcoats and clothing for
the volunteers from their town. Summerfeld ex-
pressed his regret that they must leave but at the
same time especially requested them to see that
the overcoas were well made, as it was his inten-
tion if he ever met the Vermont regiment in bat
| tie, to xii one Of them and take his coat
Now for the sequel. Virginia seeded. The I'd
Vermont regiment, portion of which was from
the town of Waterbury, was sent to Virginia. The
battle OF Manassas was fought, in which they were
engaged, and so was Summerfeld During the
| battle S. marked his man, not knowing to what
| State he belonged, the fatal ball was sped on its
errand of DEATH the victim fell at the flash of the
gun, and upon rushing up to secure the dead mans
arms, Summertield observed that. he had a fine
new oVercoat strapped to his back, which he de
/ termned to appropriate to his own use. The figh
was over, and Summertied had time to examine
| his prize when, remarkable as it may appear, thu
| coat was marked. III lne lllluB WITH tne name o
Thomas Holmes, and in the pockets were fount
letters signed with the name of the sister, whom
Summertield had known in New York, and to whom
he had made the remark we have quoted, in whicl
the dead man was addressed as brother. The eVi
dence was conclusive; he had killed the brotha
of his FRIEND and the remark which he had maa
in jest had a melancholy fulflment. We are as
sured this narrative is literally true. Summes8el
