DR.. Barney, a citizen OF Baltimore, was
recently taken by rebel pickets near Cen
trevile and forwarded TO Richmond. He
has since stated that he went in the way
for the express purpose Of being captured.
While in Richmond, where he has numer-
Gus acquaintances, he had frequent inter-
views with number of the Confederate
Cabinet and was admitted to many secrets
of the rebels. When the the time arrived
for his departure north he was sent for by
]. P. Benjamin, who handed him letters
addressed to Gov. Seymour, of New York,
Fernando and Benz. Wood, and Vallandig-
ham and Cox, of Ohio, Bsyard, of Delaware,
ReverdY JohsOn, of Maryland, aud a num-
Der Of other noted Democratic leaders in
the north and border States. In the verbal
instructions given to Barney no terms
were asked for. Southerners told him
they would consent to no terms; that if
not admitted into the Union again as equals
they would not come at all. What they
ask is the granting of an amnesty to all the
military and civil leaders Of the rebellion,
SO that an election for members of Con-
gress can be made during the coming win.

CHILDREN SMoTHBRBD.-A most melancho,
Iy occurrence took place yesterday. in the
First Ward, resulting in the death of two
innocent babes, and perhaps, a loving bu,
mistaken mother. Mrs. Kiatz, a Germs n
woman, whose husband is now serving his
country, in the ranks OF. Capt Planke's
company, I'd Virginia regiment, occupied
the third story of frame house situated
on the corner of Market and Adams streets.
First Wari. Yesterday morning Mrs. Klatx
went out to do some washing, but be-
lore doing SO locked her two little chill.
dren up in a room. After she had gone it
is supposed that the children accidentiy set
on fire lot of shayings 10 the room. Sec.
ing what they had done the children were
panic stricken and not being able to get out
Of the house ran into an adjoining room
and crawled under bed. An alarm of FIRE
was raised outside, the neighbors rushed
to the scene, and upon entering the room
the children were found to be smothered to
death. The mother arrived before the dead
children were discovered, aud was imme-
nediately taken with violent spasms in
consequence of the horrible sight which
met her gaze. AT last accounts it was
feared that Mrs Klatz would not survive.
One of the children, little girl named
Helena, was aged five years. The other a
boy aged about three and half. Helena
was remarkably beautiful child and had
attracted the admiration of the whole
neighbOrhOOd by her gentle grace and beau
ty. The boy was also very interesting
child and the melancholy AFFAIR is uniyer-
depOred.
