The REBEL PROGRAMMES IN THE LATE
tNyAsIoN.-The defeat of the rebel plans
by the repulse of Lees army at Gettys-
burg must be peculiarly annoying to them
when they call to mind the splendid pro-
srsmme they had marked out. Gen Ew-
oil, when he first entered Gettysburg with
the part of Lees army under his COM
nsnd, addressed them in the hearing of
Two highly respectable citizens Of that
place as follows, or to this effect:
Boys, we have small JOB on hand
about half days work. to whip that
drunken Rockers army. Then, hurrah,
boys! Wen take Harrisburg. Lancaster,
Baltimore and Washington. Philadelphia
will be our headquarters, and the people
there must paw us theexpenses of this war
which will make the Quakers howl. l
they will not, we will set fire to the foul
corners of their city and burn it to ashes
This, the Philadelphia Bulletin positive
ly declares ia no invention. 1t is given OF
the testimony of two gentlemen Of the yer.
highest standing in Gettysburg.

BRAVE JOHN BURNs.-The German
town Pal Telegraph narrates the follow-
ing:
John Burns, over seventy years 0fage, q
resident of Gettysburg, fought throughout
the battle of the first day and was woun-
ded no less than five times-the last shot
taking effect in his ankle, wounding him
severely. He came up to Colonel Wistar
in the thickest of the fight, shook hands
with him, and said he came to help. He
was dressed in his best, consisting of .
light blue. swallow-tailed coat, with brass
buttons; corduroy pantaloons. and stove
pipe hat, of considerable height, all of an
Gent pattern. and, doubtless an heirloom
in his house. He was armed with regula-
ton musket. He loaded and fired un-
finchingly until the last of his five wounds
brought him down. He will recoy-
err. His little cottage was burned by the
rebels. A purse of a 500 has been sent
to him from Germantown. Brave John
Burns!
That purse should be made thousand
dollars forthwith.
EXPULSION OF NoN-CoMBATANTs.-Th
Richmond Dispatch says: ''Steps are being
taken by the proper authorities to relieve
this community of all that class of persons
non remaining here ac5th foreign protection
papers in their pockets, and who refuse to
perform local military service in time OF
danger. Many of these creatures have al
ready amassed large fortunes by this war,
and now, if they are not willing to protect
their own property along with others, they
deserve to be dispossessed of every dollar
they have made here, and to be driven
barefooted beyond the limits of the Con-
federacy. Let them remain no longer to
consume the necessaries oflife that would
serve to feed better people, but make them
go, and go quickly and empty-handed.'
An anecdote is related of Gen John A.
Logan. When he was a Colonel, at the
commencement of the rebellion. six COM
panies of his corps becoming aggrieved at
something, stacked arms and refused to do
duty. The Adjutant informed Col. Logan
of the difficulty. who, an hearing it, ex-
claimed, stacked arms! The devil they
have?" Then pausing a minute, as he con-
sidered the emergency, he continued
"Well, Adjutant, I'll give 'em enough of
stacking arms Accordingly he formed
the remaining four companies in line with
loaded muskets, and stood them over the
malcontents, whom he compelled to stack
and unstack arms for twelve hours. They
didn't want to stack arms after that with
out special orders.
! The skeleton Of a man was found stand
ing upright, lately, among the cargo of al
Austrian ship, on her arrival at London
He had evidently tried to geta free pas
sage, and was walled up by the cargo.
