Terrible RetributIOn for the Murder or
Gen. McCOOIg.

The Boston Traveller of August 2lst
says:
Our correspondent connected with the
division OF Gen. McCook, at Battle Creek
Ienn., furnishes us with the following au.
thentlc account of the terrible retribution
upon the inhabitants living near the scene
OF The murder. by the Ohio 9th:
THE 9th Ohio is German regiment and
was raised by Brig. Gen. Which. now com
manding Gen. JohnsOn's brigade in our al.
vision. This regiment were wholly devoted
to Gen. McCook; they loved him with nil
the ardor of the German soul, and only
awaited an opportunity 10 attest their CdeI.
ily by their heroic daring. To enraVe such
men ls to ensure terrible vengeance. And
thls they carried ont npOn the inhabitants
OF the country around the scene of this
cold-blooded murder. The next morning
the entire regiment, smarting under the loss
oil their noble commander, and their rage
intensified 10y nursing their passion during
the previous night, proceeded TO scour the
country. Every citizen they found they
shotor hung-every house they passed. I'M
less positive proof was given of their Union
sentiment, was burned to the ground with
all its contents, while the women and chill
dren were compelled to stand by aud see Il
burn. In this way some IS citizens were
made to pay the vndictive penalty for this
guerilla attack, and, undoubtedly, many Of
them received a merted death. But some.
alas, II is feared, suffered wrongfully the
fearful punishment 1t is not my nature TO
Justify such proceedings; but Il car hut
teach the people Of Tennessee that in this
war there can be but two sides They must
be either for God or for the devil-for the
Union or for treason There is no stand
between. Those who seek TO occupy that
position will invariably rue the neutrality
they have maintained"

No more to mingle on this fading sphere.
