Err FROM REBEL PRISON.
DR.. Wm. T. Rucker, the well-known
Union leader Of West Virginia, who was
captured at the surrender of Summervilie.
in Nicholas County, Va, July, 1862, has
lust arrived in Washington. having escaped
from the Rebel Penitentiary in Pittsylva-
mia, Va. The story of the treatment and
escape of DIR. Rucker is full OF interest
ing and instructive incident. He was first
sent, with other prisoners, 10 Sulphur
Springs, where he was put in irons, and 9th
erwise violently treated. He was after
wards sent to Lynchb-rg, where he IS well
known, and hence his active loyalty induced
even greater violence. He was put III
double irons, with the cuffs firmly riveted
about his arms and legs. In August he was
sent TO Richmond, and closely confined in
Castle Thunder, with special guard over
him TO prevent his escape. While at Rieh-
| mond, he saw two Union prisoners shot at
Libby, and one at Castle Thunder, on the
most trivial provocations.
Gov. Letcher represented to The Rebel
Secretary of War that Bucker was noto-
tious character, guilty Of treason against
the State of Virginia, and therefore he
should of right be surrendered TO the State
authorities for trial. After considerable
correspondence on the subject, the Confed'
crate authorities consented and turned over
the prisoner to be tried for crimes alleged
to have been committed against the State
of Virginia. He was accordingly taker
from the prison at Richmond, sent TO ALE
gany County, and confined in Jail to awai
his trial. Ten separate indictments wer'
brought against him-one for murder,
one for " treason" three for a horse steal
ing" one for wagon stealing" one TO
corn stealing" two for ''nigger stealing,
and one for bridge burning" DR.. Ruck
er believes that he escaped being indicte'
for several other crimes simply becaus
they did not occur 10 the mind of the Gran
Jury. s.s5 .es

JOHN BURNS, THE GETTYSBURG HERO.
A Gettysburg correspondent says that a
great many visitors inger at that place and
employ themselves in hunting over the
battlefield for relics. Most of them also
visit the venerable John Burns, of whom
the following account is given:
8. He is shoemaker by trade, and was
not overburdened with this worlds goods
at the time lie shouldered his musket, and
sailed forth to join the Union forces in de-
Tense of his borough; but he says he has
now paid off all his debts, and owns his
house clear, and hopes 10 be able 10 sit un.
der his own vine and fig tree for the re-
mair der Of his days. He was born in Bur-
! lington. n j., and reached his seventeen
wear in September last. When the rebels
made their appearance the second time in
! his vicinity, and he beard they were mar
shaljuc their forces on the other side of the
Seminary Ridge, which is in plain sight of
his house, | am told that the old mans
wrath knew no bounds. He ripped and
swore, to use the language of one of his
neighbors, like mad BULL and running
across the street, he told Mrs. Walter that
he could stand it no longer, he must have a
hand in the fight. If don't come back, :
said he Il wish you would see TO the old
woman and so saying he hurried across
the fields and disappeared in the woods on
the brow of the Seminary Ridge. The
old man tod me that he went straight to
the first colonel he saw, who proved TO be
the colonel of Wisconsin regiment, and
who shook him warmly by the hand, fur
4 ,,,th N Mipia e,As, nd
told him to go in and fight on his own hook.
; He had not fred more than a dozen rounds
before he was wounded in the leg, and
after living out on the ground through the
, night Of the 1st of July he hobbled back
next morning 10 bis cabin at the outskirts
i of the town, in Chambersburg street which,
to his utter disgust and indignation, he
t found filed with wounded rebel soldiers
| | am inclined to think that TIE old mar
: Judges the rebels harsbly, but he solennly
] assevcrates that the cowardly scoundrei:
4 tried to murder him after he got back tC
5 his own domicile, and lay wounded on thu
5 floor. He SAYS that he crawled into hi
V basement, and after getting comfortable
position in one corner and was about takin!
r, patriotic snooze, when whiz came bul
/, lei through the clapboards and lodged II
5. the ceiling a few inches above his head
d Soon after came another, which struck still
'. nearer where he lay. There is no US
Ie irving to make the old man believe thes
v we're chance shots, for he says that only
d few moments previous some rebel sharp
$, shooters came into the room where he LAY
IL and disappeared again in very suspicion
d way. There were wounded rebels lyin
,f in the same room, and as the bullets struc
be near him and some distance from the 'rebs
le he is positive that the sharpshooters wei
e, outside and purposely fired in the direetio
: ) of his cot. If il is only an illusion of III
he old man it is a harmless one, and don't bel
e. add in the least to his undying hatred an
IL contempt Of the traitors TO his country,

the WORLD IS WHAT WE MAKE 1T

Did We but strive to make the best
OF troubles that befall us,
Instead of meeting cares halfway,
They would not so appal us.
Earth has spell for loving hearts;
Why should we seek to break ite
Let's scatter flowers instead of thorns--
The world is what we make it.

Pnfriosic and FaithfaI Regulars.

Il For ,everal days past there have been stopping a
the Park Barracks AMI now at the Battery, severn
soldiers belonging to the Sin regular infantry Of The
United States. Readers familiar with tie history o
military movements in Texas since tie outbreak o,
the Rebellion, Will remember that two huUdred
aud eeventy Of these patriotic and gallant men were
stationed in 1ezss, and that ther oinoers deserted
\ TO tue enemy. but these with their serSo ants
Harris, Darken, Neal, Sheble Renhardi, NeCor'
mick Brady asd st8pleton, were true TO tneIr coun
ty MS the dial TO the SUM- they were alike insensl'
bic to fatiery, bribery. promises Of promotion,
abuse and Efforts Of Intimidation. Faithful among
the ialIhess they stood by the ftsrs aud stripes
subjected to bardsLips and priyatioDs that Try
meus souls, never deviatug a hairs breadth from
the direct path Of duty and lCyal,y-ior tie two
years OF their imprisonment
| They were recently exchanged and are now in
our ci;y. VIXEN contrast their fidelity and pa
triotiBm with the treason Of their of GERS. il seems
impossible to overesiimate their merits. They
deserve TO b. the guests Of the nation,
and their loyalty should be recognized by q
public reception. They represent the common peo'
ps-the bone nnd sinew--ths backbone and the
heart If not the brain Ct the community. They were
Internationally given up to the Rebel authorities by
their superior officers Oh the 9ih Of May, 1861 and
separated into squads and sent away to different
points, Oh the frontier OF Texas There they were
scaniily supplied with raions ard cothes compelled
70 perform the Nos. stect aud huniiia'ing labors,
deprived of tneir pay, and often furnished with
stripes and chains. Recruiting officers IRON the
Rebel ranks heqasntiy visited them, Offering large
bouuiies aud commissions in the Confederate army
il they would desert their flag They .purned the
bride and remained true to their country. These
cilicers failed to teduce them. Tho gilGsd bs.; OF
secession did not tempt them from the patti of duty.
Sich patriotism ard such unia!tering fidelity nisrts
