Correction.

Editor Of The Union:
The following editorial notice Of Col.
BRrDeEs, Of East Tennessee, appears in
the Nashville Dispatch Of this morning,
and does injustice 10 that gentleman
whether so intended or not, by leaving
an impression that he was elected to one
Congress, or ran for one, aud was elected
to another, or sought TO get TO another:
George w. Bridges, Of Athens, was
elected 10 Congress in August, 1851, in
the third district in this State, and at
tempted to make his way to Washington
through the mountains Of East Ten
nessee and Kentucky about the time that
the Hon. Horace Maynard did, but be
was captured by the rebels and taken
back, on he ground that The election was held
for members Of the Confederate Congress
Mr.. Bridges was subsequently released
on the strength of some representation,
the nature Of which we do not now re-
member. He passed through this city a
few days ago, and we notice he took his
seat in Congress on Thursday. His con-
gressionsl career will be brief, extending
over less than week.
The facts are, that Col. BRlDGEs, last
summer was year ago, was announced
in my paper as a candidate for the Con-
gress Of Ge United States in the Chatta-
nooga District-met his competitor on
the stump, opposed ecession-declared
himself a candidate for the United States
Congress-and was elected by a majority
of ELEVEN HUNDRED VOTES, and started
TO Washington with a certificate Of his
election to that Congress. He had made
arrangements for his wife and children
to follow him, which they did in a car
riage. He was in Kentucky, near the
Stak line, awaiting their arrival, but
when his wife arrived in jamestown
Fentress county, and was within twenty
Eve miles of BIN, the rebels arrested her
and dispatched one of their soldiers in
citizens clothes, to inform him that 81,
,Oas at the point Of death, and desired hi,
return, the messenger claiming TO have
been sent by her. AS any other gentle
man would have done, believing the re-
port, be returned instantly. lie was a
once seized, and with his wife and
children pushed into Knoxville, escorted
by swearing, snOrting, and insulting
gang of rebel cavalry. Thus, by frauC
and falsehood was be captured and re
turned, the same foul means by whicl
the State was rushed out of the Union
and the hell born and hell bound monster
Of Secession was inaugurated.

men who could draft and adopt such
atrocious resolutions, would kidnap ne
groes for slavetrader, rob a school fund
or defame a woman. Nothing more thor.
oughly disloyal was ever uttered by a
gang Of Mississippi woman-whippers,
and secessionists. Catch such conserv-
atives giving one dollar to remove slave
ry from Maryland or Missouri. They
would rather pay ten TO see the number
of slaves in the country trebled, for they
are shrewd enough TO know that the diff
fculty of removing slavery increases
with the number of the slaves. The
slaves are now part Of a big political
machine, which these conservatives think
they can control, and hence they so bit
terly reproach the Administration, and
manifest their Partially for the South
The Union men of the South almost
unanimously repudiate such allies. They
regard them as dangerous foes Of the ma
ton, but little if any better than South
esn rebels. KID

Indiana Copperheads Digging up the
Corpse of a Union Soldier.

OOIpbS VI n OulVn OOlulSA.
Mr.. HAMLET, a soldier in one Of the
Indiana regiments, died in Hospital No.
4, in this place, some two weeks ago,
and his body was carried home by his
son to Rochester, Fulton county, Indiana,
where his remains were inferred. A few
days afterwards Union meeting was
held in that vicinity, several copperheads
left the meeting hurrahing for JEFF. DA-
Wis, and after collecting about a hundred
other vagabonds Of the Butternut stripe,
twenty fve Of whom were armed, repair
ed TO the soldiers grave, dug up Tie co6irl
and chopped IL open toih ares. The reason
for this horrid deed, was, as these jack
ais in human form alleged, that the cot.
fin contained a lot of Governor MoRToN''
fire. arms. The brutes, however, found
nothing in the coffin save the man.
gled remains of a soldier whC
had sacrificed his life for his country
Before the work Of exhuming the corpse
was begun, the body snatchers placed {
guard around the grave. One of th,
men growing ashamed Of the bruta
work, refused to participate in it, but the
captain Of the gang, oBAEoE MEHEbrTH
presented pistol to his breast anc
threatened to kill him if he Withdrew
The corpse was. reinterred by the soldier
widow, who placed notice over th,
grave, begging that the body of Ler hus
band might be allowed to repOse in peace
We gather these statements from lettc
written by the widow to her son, whoi
a nurse in Hospital No. 4, in this city.

The order of General MTToHELL, pub
lished in yesterdays UNION, in relation
to the refusal Of the Agent of the Gas
Company to transfer certain shares of
their Company, which had been legally
sold by the Cincinnati Gas Company, on
the ground that the shares had been for
feited TO the rebel Government by the
Sequestration Act, will be heartily COM
mcnded. 1t is exactly right. The con
duct OF the Agent of the Gas Company
in this matter, and of the company in
tolerating it, was certainly piece of
superlative presumption and insolence,
and displayed not only rank treason but
wonderful lack Of sense. Every man
of them implicated in this matter ought
to be conscripted at once, and if he re-
fuses to fight for the stars and stripes,
should be held as a prisoner Of war, sub
jsct TO be exchanged. We have tolerated
the impudenco of traitors long enough in
Nashville.
