Congress the one hundred dollar United States
bounty is only gwen to soldiers discharged from
the army by reason Of wounds received 10 battle.
The law is generally misun lerstood, 50 that
soldiers discharged previous to the exp ration of

A CUaRHCFEON.

EDITORS APPEAL; Noticing the correspond
ence of the Chicago Times, copied in your paper
of the 4th instant, ever the signature of '' Don
slson." I see that the credit Of the command oi
cur batteries, at Fort Pemberton, is given 20
Lieutenant Brown, Of ram Arkansas. Whilst
have no desire to deprive that gentleman Of the
honor which tbe TiEles' correspondent has done
him, know he viii appreciate the feeling that
prompts me to ssk an insertion of this eOrTec-
ton in your columns, that the h0Hors Of the
skillhul and successful management Of our guns
may attach to the rightful proprietor.
Major John D MyTick, Of General Loring's
staff, active chief Of artillery, is the officer who
was in command of our batteries at Foa Penn
berion.
Major MyTiek not only manifested uuremit-
ting energy and zeal in experimenting the
construction Of the defenses but aesed with dis
tnguished gallantEy and eeursge in defending
the works throughout The entire bombardment.
OF course the correspondent of the TInss is
not expected TO communicate correct informa-
ton in regard to US, yet in the absence Of
counter statements ard corrections, the pre-
sum2tions would be in favor of the truth Of bis
statement, and convictions might be based upon
them, if allowed to pass unnotieed, which might
deprive good, tried and true soldier Of his just
rewards for bravery and good conduct, and
bestow them upon another, possibly as good,
tried and brave, but who, for the information Of
the Yankees, viii state, was ct the time Operat-
ING in another element for their confusion.

Illinois Volunteers, was wounded at the battle
of Murfreesboro' and captured. He was taken
to the Atlanta prison and confined with the
other officers captured at that battle. But haV-
ing the bsd luck to be a stake holder day or
two before the battle, IN q bet where the stakes
were fac simiLs Confederate notes, and the bet

crime Of eounterfeiting, aud made aim auswers-
bic 30 the civil eourt-ordering him to appear at
! that tribunal on the fourth Monday in March
About the 5th of February all the prisoners
there were notified that al the officers who had
been captured previous TO the 18th of January
were exchanged and they were ordered to the

means the civil claim sgainst Lieutenant Elliott

bis clothes for partial butternut suit, obtain
ing map, compass and Eve dollars, be got off

reach the Union lines on foot.
His FIRST thought was to 60 TO Knoxville, an
from there 70 Murfreesboro, but the dangers of
the route SEEMING so great, he determined 10 Try
to reach this place.
Striking the mountains at Dswssnville, he

when tgo guerillss Of Wsrrens gang pursued
him some four hours. He eluded them by going
