EEA letter from soldier at Newport
News relates the following incident, Civ
ing slave woman's account Of the cap
ture Of the rebel batteries on Gen. Nc
Oieilans advance upon Yorktown: "The
attack on the batteries can not be better
described than in the words of an old con-
traband whom / fell in with on a scout to
Young's Mills, the day after the capture.
She Was secesh, and took US to belong to
the same accused race. Ga asking her
II there was much fighting at the battery,

secesA SyDpathixcrs NJ the HsspitaI.
We understand that Mrs. Russell, q
poor widow of our town, notorious for her
secesh sympathies, has been forbidden
admittance to the hospital. We regard
that as entirely proper, and the loyal pub.
lie generally are loud in approval of the
course, but We and others are prompted
to inquire why there should be "respect
of persons" exhibited by the authorities
1t the hospital.
A poor widow finds no entrance or
countenance there, but many wealthy and
influential sympathixers seam 10 have free
range of the building. Gentlemen who
are rich enough to furnish the rebel Sur
geon with 6ne new suit of clothes, and
bold enough to show their procliyities in
favor Of traitor, rather than patriot, pa
tlents 10 the hospital, still go in and out
without question. Why should Floyd or
Hooper or Bond, not to mention others,
be admitted if strong secesh sympathies
furnished ground excluding Mrs. Rus
sell from the hospital?

Shocking Accident in Gro,on,

shocking Accident In GrOtOns
Some person writes us (but anaccountably
neglects to sign his name to the letter. so we
do not know whether the account is hoax
or heart-rending reality that at the cele-
bration at the Lake House in Groton the 4th,
four young persons, man by the name of
Hooper from Groton and Avery from Tops
ham, with Misses Goodwin and Welch, start
ed in an old leaky boat for ride upon the
pond. They had gone quite distance when
the boat began rapidly to fill with water.-
They gave signals of distress, out before an
other boat could put off to their help, theirs
had swamped, plunging the occupants into
the water, and before assistance reached them
three had sunk to rise no more, and the
fourth, Miss WEIGH, was seized while under
water and rapidly sinking, and drawn into
the boat where consciousness soon returned.
The scene is represented as most heart-rend-
ing, many persons on the shore witnessing
the struggling victims in the water, bit with
out the power to render assistance. The
three bodies were recovered on Saturday,
and funeral services held on the Sabbath in
Topsham and in Groton on Monday. This
is sad warning and one never to be forgot
ten by the people in that vicinity, not to
venture upon rivers, ponds or lakes in inse-
cure boats.

RESOLVED, That We heartily sympathize

and that they be printed in the Lowell news

went to Fortress Monroe as clerk in the
post office, and about ten days ago, feeling
little unwell, he went to the hospital. Not
getting better he started for New York in a
steamer, but growing weaker, he sen: for his
brother here, who went on, and has since re-
manned with him. He continued to fail
gradually, but wishing to reach home, he
took passage by the way of Fall River. On
arriving there he was too i'll to proceed fur
Their, and comfortable quarters and good at
tendants were provided by his brother, but
he never rallied, and died as quietly and ca.
silly as child falling asleep. The deceased
was widely known in this city, where he had
many friends, who will mourn his early
death. His age was 81 years and 10
