The Part which Mr. Riddle, NJ. c.,
from Ohio, took I'm the Fight.


Mr.. RIDDLE, member of Congress from Ohio,
writes letter to the Cleveland Leader, concern
ing his experience at the battle of Manassas, from
which we make the following extract:
Well the further they (the soldiers) ran, the
more frightened they grew, and although noe
moued on as rapidly as tce could, the iuyitiveS
passed us by scores
The heat was awful, although now about six;
the men rsre erhaueted-their mouths oaped their
lips cracked and biackened ,ch the poicder of the
cartridges they had bitten off, their eyes starting in
trenzy-no mortal ever saw such mass OF ghast-
ly wretches.
As we passed the poor demented, exhausted
wretches who could not climb into the high, ci Sc
baggage wagons, they madesfrantic efforts to get
on to and into our carriage. They grasped it
everywhere and got to it, and into it, and over
il, and implored us every way to take them on.
We had to be rough toith them. At first they load
ed us dorn almost TO stand STILL and zoe had to
push them off and MrOtc them put Finally Brown
and |, trith a pistol each, kept htm out although
one poor dera got in in spite of us, and lugged
the cotcard t,oo Mules. 1 finally opened The door,
and he lodS tumbLed out.
The Cincinnati Commercial says The people
of Cleveland should give Mr.. RIDDLE reception
when he returns home.
We call special attention to this statement of
this Republican member of Congress. Could
anything be rnore heartless than his treatment of
the brave volunteers in the condition he describes
theml He says "the men were exhausted-their
mouths gaped, their lips cracked and blackened
with tie powder of the cartridges they had bitten
off in the battle; their eyes starting in frenzy"
aud in such a condition they pleaded for help. but
this sympathizing Republican Congressman. With
pistol, kept the "cowards," as he terms them,
off from his carriage; but one "poor devil in
spite of him. he lugged two miles. yet finally
tumbled him out. Such is the way a Republican
Congressman treats the men who volunteered to
defend the honor and maintain the integrity of
the Government. Does patriotism influence
Mr.. RIDDLE in his support of the war?
If so, would he thus heartlessy allude 70
the men who volunteered their services and
risked their lives to vindicate the honor of the flag
which this Republican Congressman Processes to
hold in such high regardf Mr.. RIDDLE forcibly
illustrates that there is more of party than
patriotism in the unnatural war in which the Gov
eminent is involved, and which would have been
avoided, or its extent materially crcumscribed, if
the dominant party had in the last or even in the
present Congress manifested any disposition to
accommodate the questions at issue by an hoLor
able and equitable adjustment.

A WHITE MAN KILLED IN SUMNER C0US-
TY By A NEGRo, AND THE NEGRO HUNG
On Saturday morning last, as Mr.. WM- @.
MOORE, living on West Station Camp Greek,
in Sumner county, was making preparations
TO remove his negroes to Alabama, where he
had purchased plantation, he was attacked
by one of his negro men, who inflicted a
wound with a hatcher knife upon his throat,
which severed the jugular vein and caused
his death in a few minutes. The negro then
attacked the son of Mr.. MOORE, infiicting Sc
we're though not dangerous wounds upon his
chin and throat. The negro then started to-
wards the dwelling-house, with the intention.
it is thought, of numbering the rest of the
family, but on hearing Mr.. CRAIG, who was
present, call for a gun, he took to the fields,
where be was closely followed by several
gentlemen, who were compelled to fire upon
him before he would surrender.
The news of the affair spreading rapidly,
the neighbors gathered to the scene in large
numbers, and after a deliberate consultation,
determined to hang the negro without delay,
which they accordingly did. The negro
manifested no remorse for his bloody work
and was launched into eternity without any
manifestation of repentance.
We get these facts from Mr. CRAIG who was
with Mr. MOORE when he was attacked, and
almost miraculously escaped similar fate.

ALL ABOUT 4 WAGoS.-Mr. JONI BURKE, q
citizen of that part OF the City of Rocks
which they call South Nashville, when they
don't happen to call it College Hill, and
which is pleasant par. of the City of Rocks
to be citizen of, as from actual experience
We can testify, is the owner of twO-hOrse
wagon, which he uses principally for hauling
things in. Last Sunday night Mr.. BURKE
thOughtiessly left his tw0-hOrse wagon out in
the weather. Not that the weather was by
any means inclement; on the contrary it was
gentle, mild, ethereal as the English poet
said to Spring, when he requested her TO
"eome" But when Mr.. BUEKE got up next
morning, and went our to take in the beauty
OF The metropolitan landscape, he found the
beauty of that landscape materially marred
by the absence of bis two-horse wagon. The
vehicle had disappeared. 1t was MT to be
seen. In a word, it was gone. But on look
ing around Mr.. Burke was satisfied from the
INDICATIONS in the neighborhOOd, that his two
morse wagon had neither been absorbed by
the atmosp>ere nor consumed by the heat of
the Inooh snhe of the night before. Mr.
BURKE saw tracks leading off from his pre-
misses, that looked 80 Ir-ach like the tracks of
a two horse wagon that, inc.edible as it NAV
seem. the best Judges of the artisIe couId MT
tell them apart. The imitationEin tact was
better than Tee oeide jewelry, which the VEN
ders of it pronounce superior to gold itself;
which is probably the case. Mr. BURKE fol-
lowed the tracks. They Id him .'over the
hill and far away" and in The bottom on the
river above the Water-works. There the
tracks stopped Whan he got there Mr..
BURKE stopped too; fol standing perpendieu-
lar in "them tracks" right where they stop
ped, was two-horse wagon. Mr. BURKE in
simultaneously recognized it as his
The recognition is said to have been mutual.
Mr.. BURkE then knew that the tracks he had
been following were manufactured by his
own wagon. The wagon was loaded with a
machine for buying up chickens and CRYING
them to market. As the establishment then
stood it was what is known as chicken
wagon. Attached to the wagon were a couple
of horses, and attached to the couple of
horses was fence. Mr.. BURkE's mind took
had been stolen by an itinerant dealer in do
mestic fowls, who, owing to the pressure of
the times, was suf-ring for a vehicle with
which to carry on business, and thought he
had better borrow one until he got able to
buy, unmindful of the melancholy fact that
wagons will make tracks
Mr.. BURKE Immediately took possession of
the wagon. and "when our Reporter left the
scene of the disaster" was looking around to
catch a casual glimpse OF the individual who
had hauled it off. We seriously fear that the
transaction, the particulars of which we have
endeavored to give in as few words as pos
sible, will ultimately proveithe ground-work
of criminal what-d' -you-calI-it before Judge
Turner, and the transportation of somebody
to the Peniteniiary.

and is the only stmuant in existence that repes at
the outset all attacks of disease aording to pre-
vent the return of the paroxyism by means of Rad
