Routes to the East,

1t is a matter Of surprise, not to
say of actual unbelief, to many, if not
most of the people of the Northwest,
West and Southwest, that from Green
Bay and Lacrosse, on the North, to
Cairo and st. Louis, on the South, the
shortest route to New York, Philadelphia
and Baltimore, lies through Pittsburgh.
When we add that this route, 80 gen.
orally supposed to be o circuitous
one to New York, is actually nearly
one hundred miles shorter than the
route via. Toledo, Buffalo. and Alba.
ny, and sirty miles less distance than
via. Toledo & Erie Railway f; this fact
becomes only more astounding to the
large number of persons who have
heretofore regarded Buffalo as on the
direct line to New York. A further
advantage by the route via. Pitts.
burgh, is, that there is but one change
Of cars, between Chicago and New
York or Philadelphia, an advantage
of great moment 10 ladies and families,
and withal of no less comfort to bust
ness men. All these advantages can
be secured, by buying your ticket to
the East over the PIrrsBUReH. FoR1
WAYNE & CHICAGO RAILWAY. which
can be had in Chicago, and.at all the
Ticket Oaices Of all prominent lines il
the West.
The REDUCTION OF FARE just made by
this line, to $500 from Chicago to
New York, pririiege belonging to thu
shortest line to make the rates, should in
duce the people generally to try this
new and admirably appointed line,
whereby they can reach the East in
less time and for a lower fare than by
any other route.

Heavy Bank Robbery.

The Southern Bank of Kentucky,
at Carrolton, was robbed on the morn
ing of the Goth inst. by sixteen men
in uniform. who represented themselves
as belonging to SCOTS rebel cavalry
They were first discovered by Mr.
Crawford, the Cashier, who lives in
the rear of the Bank, at whom they
fired, driving him back into the house.
After removing the money from the
vault, they set fire to the papers there
in, and mounted their horses and star
ted off in the direction of Owen coun-
ty. The amount of money stolen was
100000 in gold and silver, and
$780, in paper. Every effort was
made to lead to the capture Of the
robbers.

From Charleston.

The Washington Republican says
The bombardment Of Charleston was
renewed on the morning of the 18th
inst. in right good earnest from land
and sea. Gen. Gilmore opened from
all his new and from his old works,
and Rcar-Admiral Dahlgren engaged
all the Monitors. The Government re-
ceived dispatch dated the 18th inst,
from a distinguished military officer,
stating that The Chattanooga Rebel Of
the 10th announced that the lombard
ment of Charleston on Saturday was
awful, that the firing from Gen Gil
more's land batteries on Morris Island
and from the Monitors, was chiefly
directed against Sumpter. The com
bined land and naval force of the I'm
ionists seemed to be engaged. The
information published in THE Re6e'
was received at Chattanooga from
Charleston by telegraph, and the fight
was going on when the paper went to
press on Sunday. The officer who
communicates to the Government the
contents of The Rebel says the editor,
instead of making any boast about
the result, or manifesting the least
jubilant feeling over the situation Of
affairs at Charleston, exhibits the
most positive evidence Of gloom"
A dispatch from Philadelphia says
Fort Sumpter has been captured, and
our fleet is above the forts.

About " Gin Out"

A letter from q prominent officer in
Rosccrans' army, says the whole coun-
try for miles around Chattanooga is
swarming with deserters from Bragg
and Johnston. Both commands are
demoralized, and cannot be called ar
mics. Many rebel soldiers come with
in our lines daily and surrender and
bring arms with them. Dissatisfac-
ton most marked exists among Ala.
hama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Ten
nessee troops, who say that they
have nothing to fight for, and so give
up and return home. The feeling
among the troops against JEFF. Davis
is very bitter, and furious for the war
to cease and return to til cir old allegi-
ance.

Accident.

girl, sixteen years of age, was left in
charge Of the house while the family
were out wedding corn. While work.
ing around an out-of.door stove, her
clothes caught fire, and the first init
nation she had of it, was seeing the
flames over her shoulder She was
too much frightened to do anything
but scream as loudly as she could,
aud run out into the orchard. When
first seen, she was kneeling down. APP
parcntly insensible to pain. Before
any one could get to her, almost every
shred Of clothing was burnt off from
her, and her whole body was fright
fully charred. She only lived about
seven hours.

DEATH OF COL. HUGHES.

bEAih oE WI. htohEo.
The Vicksburg correspondent of the
st. Louis Democrat, in letter of the
llth inst. says:
"Col. ID. II. Hughes, of the 3Sth
Iowa Infantry, died at Port Hudson,
La, on the morning of the It'll inst,
after an illness of about ten days.
The 3Sth were attached TO Herron's
Division, and one Of the last regiments
raised in Iowa. Col Hughes though
a new officer, had, by his untiring en-.
ergy, his devotion to the cause, and
GOODNESS he displayed at Vicksburg,
won name for himself, inferior to no
officer in that division.
His loss will be severely felt, not
only in his regiment, who were deeply
attached to him, but in the division,
where he was considered one of the
most promising officers. His remains
will be sent to his friends in Northern
Iowa"
The Waverly Phoenix says of the
3Sth regiment
This regiment has seen considerable
service since it went To Vicksbnrg.
They encamped in a cedar swamp,
and were on double aud triple duty
Immediately after the surrender of
Vicksburg they were sent after johns
ton, and ON their return, without any
rest, started on the Yazoo expedition
On their return. less than one hundred
were able to report for duty
After little rest they were ordered
to New Orleans. A letter from Lient
Avery conveys the information that
after they had embarked the river
breeze infused new life into the weary
men. and he thought the change would
prove beneficial.
The 38th were exceedingly unfortu-
nate in the time Of their going South
1t was in the midst of summer. and
the heat, poor water and excessive Ia
Dor were too much for even the 3Sth,
than which finer regiment never
marched to the music of fife and drum.
We regret to learn that many have
died. Among the number are Yeager
Baum, Thomas Leslie, Lambert Shep-
ard and Francis Huston, all members
of Company 3D."

It is rumored that Gen. Meade has

that now he has for the third time ap

and insists upon it. 1t is stated that
Gen. Grant will be appointed to the
