the following thrilling incident:
A few moments ago, I saw the color
bearer of The Tenth New York (H. Alex
ander) carried into the Mansion i ouse
Hospital. He was wounded in three diff
ftrent parts of his body-one wound iu
the thigh was a terrible one--but he still
chung to his colors, and would not allow
them to be taken from him. AS he was
being lifted up the st,p s, he became iu-
sensible and an effort was made to take
the flag from him, but his clutch was like
a grasp of iron-his hand seemed glued
with his own blood to the stars and stripes.

In all that is attributed to me there is not single
statement true except taat wrote letter to

Gratis. did not say that Democrats we're burn
ing buildings or destroying property, or any
thing about the safety of Union men. did not
advise Mr.. Sherman to send any military force
to arrest anybody whatever.
The facts arc,-,hat several persons thought
that few persons who were advising drafted men
not to go TO camp, should be arrcstcd-and was
spokento in relation to drawing up aifidavits to
send to the U S. Marshal at Cleveland under
published order to arrest for words spoken
instead of drawing the aflidavits, lproroscd that
the facts should be given to the commander OF
the nearest m litary post, and let the military au-
thorities do as they pleased in relation to it. |
