Rev. Mr. Milburn, in his lecture upon
Aaron Burr, relates the following Incl
dent Of his military career;
"He married in SO the widow Of a Brit
ish officer, of great beauty and high char
acter, and with her he seems to have lived
happily for eleven years. This was after
he had gone through his career ss a SOL
dier-s career, by the way, in. which he
showed the same cool, bold, daring and IN
scrupulOus character which had distin
gnished all his previous career. There
could be no doubt of his bravery and cOur-
age, nor Of his savage and willy vengeance.
AN the soldiers under his command showed
a mutinous spirit, and had even threatened
his life Burr had the ball cartridges,
without their knowledge, removed from
their muskets, and ordered them to parade
at midnight. Then he passed up and down
the lines, looking with demoniac triumph
into each face, until at last one stalwart
fellow raised his musket and cried to his
comrades to fire upon the officer. In a
moment BUrr's sword swept from its scab-
bard, and descending upon the soldiers
wrist, cut it nearly in twain. He then sent
the man TO the rear, and walked back to
the rest, with the same seofing look in his
face, as if he said to them, Would any
other gentleman like TO try it on 2"

Some Of General Dix's officers report
that they are satisfied from various cir
cumstances that the rebels are preparing
to evseuate Richmond, and have already
moved large quantities Of supplies. These
officers believe that the show Of force in
front of Hooker, and the demonstration bv
cavalry in front Of Washington and on the
Peninsula, is intended to mask the real OBJ
jeot, and that the bulk Of Lees .4a.y is
moving away behind the curtain Of the

OF being able to drive him back and to oc-

Richmond papers contain a full descrip-
tiOn Of the steamer GeOrgiana. She was
powerful steamer, of 4O7 tons, $50 horse
power, and very fast. Persons who saw
her at Nassau, at which port she stopped,
prior to sailing for Charleston, report her
as much more formidable vessel than the
Alabama. She was built by Laird, of Bir-
kenhead, for the Emperor of China, as
alleged. She was an iron vessel, brig
rigged, and left England with an assorted
cargo. It's estimated that the vessel, with
cargo, must have been worth million Of
dollars. Richmond papers say that among
the cargo was battery Of twelve Whit
worth guns, Of superior manufacture.

A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT OR A FEARFUL
|CRINE.-Friday night, two boys from this
city, living on Cedar and Pine streets, named
Henry Fisher and Fred Lindeman, crawled
underneath the Express train on the Lake
Shore Railroad before it left the depot, and
seated themselves on the horizontal bar con-
'nected with the breaking apparatus, for the
purp0se Of stealing ride. In this danger
.ous position they were conveyed safely as far
as Silver Creek, when the FIRST named either
fell or was thrown from the perilOus perch,
and the train passed over him, nearly sever
ing both legs from his body and mangling
him frightfully. Lindeman came home by
the next train, and was arrested Saturday
upon charge, hSw well founded we do not
know, Of having caused the fearful accident
to his companion by pushing him from the
seat, He was committed to Jail for examina-
ton

Hno - the Friend Of the Soldier
The Democratic City Convention met in
Cincinneti last week. The Democracy
claim to Be The especial friends of the sol
der. Hoa did .hsy show it upon this
0ecasiOn7 During the session, large bod
les Of troops, probably Burnside's old
Ninth Army Corps, going to the defense Of
Kentueky sRd Ohio, passed directly By
MelodeOn Hall, where the Convention was
in session. OF course the Convention
greeted these veteran defenders with
eheers, and hearty, honest words Of enoour-
agement2 Nothing of the sort. Not a
cheer greeted them, not a single token of
apPrOfalmst their gaze, not flag vas
waved in sign Of sympathy for or with
them. They were permitted TO pass in ST.
lensa and during the whole session Of the
Convention not one word was uttered to
cheer the soldiers even il their defense of
the members Of that Convention, their fam
lilies and their property. One such fact as
this speaks mightier than many words,
and ought to drive honest, loyal men, from
ali Fellowship and association with those
who thus in funeral silence greet the De-
fendersOf the Country.
