QuartermaSteF IgOe.

The Murfreesboro correspondent of
the Cincinnati Commercial tells the fol-
lowing stories;
Everybody in the Sd division of Crit
tenden's corps knows the quartermaster
of the 35th Indiana-Martin Igoe; in
fact, his fame is not confined to Gen.
Van Cleve's division No, Sir; not by
no means! His eccentricities are the
theme of conversation from Triune to
Stone River, from "Kripple Kreek" to
Nashville.
His first introduction to the favorable
notice of his military authority occurred
at Nashville. Shortly after the gallant
35th came into service, he stopped Gen.
Wool one day in the streets of Louis

"yarn socks" The General informed
him that he never transacted business
on the street, and suggested the pro-

Uncle Sam On Religious Gambling.

I'VE rather think that all that kind of fash.
ionable lotteiy-gambling, SO much in vogue,
to raise money at church fairs, religious festi-
walls, and other public gatherings, has at last
been pretty effectually knocked on the head :.
Hereafter, if any Of our "Sisters Of Charity I"
desire to sell, by lottery, either a doll.baby,
a loaf fplum cake, or "picture by one Of
the old masters" to raise money for church
or orphan asylum, or any other benevolent OBJ
ject, they must first take out icence and
pay $1,000 for the privilege Of this sort of
gambling. And if said Sisters neglect or 70.
fuse to take out such licenco as aforesaid,
they will be liable to little smart-money 10
the shape Of penalty Of three times the am
cunt Of the lcenee, viz, $4,000. Here
tofore, there has been vast amount of con-
science dodging in such matters. Now, all
archbishops who carry the keys Of Saint Pe-
ter, ministers Of tho Irregular succ sssion lin

descendants of John Knox and President Ed.
wards, blameless and circumspect elders and
dsacons, and the whole rank aud file Of zeal
ous, strategic, made and female religious f.
nanciers, will please take notice that while
Uncle Sam don't say-mind you-,hat, lottery
gambling, even to fill the treasury oftho Lord,
is proper business for you or anybody else
to engage in, yet, if you will do it, you must
pay roundly for it. Hereis the law. Read it:

and dollars for each licence. Every person,

away, furniture Jared and people awakened.
Nearer 10 the explosion, doors were thrown
open, aud the people fled into the open air
supposing the earth bad quaked. The public
buildings en- RandalPs Island, directly oppo-
site, were very much injured, by breaking Of
windows, demolition Of gas fixtures, furuiture,
DC.
In the immediate vicinity, on 76th-st., .
man was thrown from his bed and much
bruised, the doors and windows were all stove
