own seeing 2 drummer boy sit down OF
the side walk to rest, and one Of these VI
ragas shot him through the head, he was
instantly killed. In another caseone Of then
came out and waved a secesh flag in one
hand and a revolver in The other hand,

turnedsthe corner of her house, and killed
her with one blow of his musket--
Mr.. Livingston says all the Generals in the

Now these people have been actually fed
by the Union arm since they have been there

HEALTH OF NEW ORLEAE s.--For the
satisfaction of the thousands. who have low
ed ones in the federal army in louisiana
and other Gulf States, it is well to state,
the old citizens Of New Orleans, now here,
state positively that Notwithstanding the
report, that two or three cases Of yellow
fever have occurred III that city, there is no
danger of the prevalence of that disease in
May, and, indeed, not until the latter part
of July or August. They say also that ex-
perience has shown that immigrants from
the North are not so liable to be attacked
by the climatic diseases during the first as
during the second year Of their residence in
the South, and that as far as New Orleans
is concerned the people from the rural dis
tricts Of Louisiana and Mississippi are quite
as liable as Northern men to the diseases
incident to the immediate locality of New
Orleans. They believe that with judieious
sanitary regulations the Union soldiers will
be even more healthy than the rebel troops
in that climate Washington Despatch n

oats has somewhat improved. The pros

competition with the market south. The

of sending the same south as soon as

s NJ During the fight the cry Of
Cavalry Cavalry~ ran along the
lines, and now the energy of Col. Cobb,
whose deliberate movements have SO often
been the subject Of remarks, showed that in
his long dream of deliberation he had been
accommodating a fund Of action ready to be
used in time Of need. When the alarm Of
cavalry was made, with pfonptness which
Napoleon might have envied, and in less
time than it will take to read the few lines
describing it, he had thrown the ige COM
panies under his command into a hollow
square, to receive the advancing foe from
whatever side he came. The cavalry, how
ever, did not advance, and, with equal
promptness, his hollow square was again
deployed with the line, all this while the
fight going on. But once during the fight
did he lose his promptness and energy,
when he was ordered back-he sudden
" became hard Of hearing, and after delib-
erately thinking it over, he began 10 make
arrangements to do SO, but did not get
fairly at it until the enemy was essentially

SALE OF DEvoNs.-The Bucklin Dew
ons are to be sold at Beetown at 10 o'clock
A. NJ, on the 9th Of June, to pay some
of Mr.. Bucklin's debts. They will be
sold singly 50 as to give all chance who
may wish to purchase for breeders. There
are eight cows and seven calves, all full
breed Devonshires; besides there are sew
eral superior horses, wagon and some
other property Of Bucklin's, to be sold for
his debts. The brother Of Bucklin the
rogue has commenced a replevin suit to
recover the mules, having at length found
sufficient vouchers of character to satisfy
the lawyers. 1t is thought that Mr.. Oil
yer will be able to fasten his attachment
on the calf, to which allusion was made
lately in our notices of suits.

Horse and Buggy Stolen by River Raj -Siace
Recovered.

On Tuesday morning last, tall, slen-
der man, heavy sandy whiskers, stove pipe
hat, black dress coat with linen duster, left
the boat Northener, from below, at Cass-
vile where he hired 4 horse and buggy Ct
Mesrs. Grimm & Ishmael, keepers Of a
livery stable. He pretended to be an
agent of some Nursery below, and that
he was out selling trees and Collecting
He appeared familiar with many persons,
at least the names of 1aany, through the
county. The next heard Of was at Wing
vile, where he exchanged the buggy fol
light wagon with some person and re-
ceived $35 boot, then he went to Avoca,
sold the wagon for $50 and left the horse,
and we fear he has escaped. A minister
offered the scamp $s5 for the buggy, but
we suppose the scamp feared TO sell at that
price; Mr.. Grimm passed through this
village last Sabbath with horse and buggy,
leaving some persons $85 poorer and
we hope wiser. Ifthere are any thieves that
should be dealt severely with it is these
kind, as once engaged in the business they
never quit it, and on account Of locomo-
tive qualities Of the property, it is difficult
to ferret them out. It would be well at the
present time to be on guard for all stran-

MoRMoSs-AN INcIDENr.-A party Of
81 Mormons passed through here yester-
day, on the Central road, by special train,
They are to be followed by number
of other squads, probably about 1000 IN
all.
A family belonging to the party had a
child which was very sick before arriving
here, and just before leaving the depot the
little sufferer breathed its last. This event
placed the company in the dilemma, as
they could not attend to the funeral obse
quies without very great Inconvenience
The difficulty was, however, remedied in a
manner that not only eyinced presence Of
mind, but the instincts Of manly nature.
The Assistant Superintendent, c. Il. Hurd,
Esq, telegraphed TO Marshall for coffin
to be got in readiness, and ordered the
child to be buried at the expense Of the
Company.
Dying by steam and being buried by
telegraph are among the reculiarities OF
the nineteenth century.-Detroa Tribune.
