An Incident OF the Battle of Chicka.
manga.

In B. F. TAYLER's correspondence of
the Chicago Journal, we find the follow
ing incident of the battle:
One of the boys ran down to little spring.
and towards the woods where the enemy lay,
for water. He had just stopped and swung
his canteen, when tick-a rifle ball struck it at
an angle and bounded away. He looked
around an instant, discovered nobody, thought
that goes at a killing rate without any malice
prepense-and so, nowise infirm of purpose,
he again bent to get water. Ping-a second
bullet cut the cord of his canteen, and
the boy "got the idea;" a sharpshooter
was after him, and he went to the
right about and double-quick to the
ranks. A soldier from another part of the
struck, and fell BY its brink But where was
the marksman? Two or three boys ran out to
draw his fire, while others watched. Crack
went the piece again, and some keen-eyed fell
low spied puff of smoke rolling out from a
little cedar. That was the spot, then; tho
rebel had made him hawks nest-in choice
Indian, Chattanooga, in the tree, and drawing
the green covert close around him, was taking
quiet hand at "steeple shooting" at long
range.
A big, blue.eyed German, tall enough to
look over into the third generation, and a
sharpshOoter withal, volunteered to dislodge
him. Dropping into little run away, that
neared the tree diagonally, he turned upon his
back and worked himself cautiously along;
reaching point perilously close, he whipped
over, took aim as he lay, and God and his true
right hand gave him good delverance."
Away flew the bullet; an instant elapsed, the
volume Of the cedar parted and /" like big
frog" as the boys described it, out leaped
gray-back; the hawks nest was empty, and a
dead rebel lay under the tree. 1t was neatly
done of the German man grown. May he live
to tell the story thousand times to bis moon
faced grandchildren.

Tho Conscrlpt Act.

A letter from the Eoening Post, from
Washington, has the following in regard
to the prospects for amendments to the
CONSUMPTION, or enrolment act, in the
next Congress:
Senator Wilson, who has been here two or
three days has returned home. The Senator
does not favor any change in the enrolment act,
hear, but prefers that the law shall stand pre-
cisely as it is. The War Department may
shal General Is known to favor changes, and
radical ones, in tho law. There is one argu-
ment against any attempt to amend the act
which possesses good deal of strength. It
is as follows: The House will be very closely
divided between the opposition and the admin
lstration members. If any attempt is made to
modify the enrolment act there is no telling
what amendments the House may put upon it.
AS it is in its present shape it will serve
that under the law as it now stands, with the
recent modification of instructions to the
examining surgeons, at least one-third
OF the persons who may be hereafter
drafted will be found able to pass an examine
uon. II the law is not changed, the attitude
OF the government towards those persons liable
70 military duty is generous one. 1t first
offers bounty OF three hundred dollars to anv
man who will volunteer, while many of the
State governments will give him monthly
wages, but If he will not volunteer compels him
to pay $500, which can be handed over to the
man who will. There is strong feeling aea inst
the $500 exemption clause among Republican
Congressman, and it is not improbable that II
will be stricken out. 1t is a fact, however that
Mr.. Wilson, who was chairman of the Military
Committee of the Senate, is opposed to any
change

The Hon. 81. T. Blow, of St. Louis,
publishes card, the purpose of which is
to exonerate himself from the charge of
having attempted to secure the removal of
General GRANT. The charge was made by
General BLAIR. Mr.. BLOW wrote to GRANT
about it, and here is his reply:

CHATTANOOGA, TENN. October 20, 1868.
Hon. Henry T. Blow, Member of Conoress:
DEAR SIR-Your letter of the 2ist instant.

effort for my removal from command, is just
received. did not save that, nor do save
any document not having direct reference to
my duties. II, however, Franklin A. Dick has
preserved copies of all his letters written to
the Attorney General, Mr. Bates, during the
summer of 62. he can furnish you with the
document, Ipresume General Blair referred to.

So it appears there was such docu-

About the same time an additional force
of marines was sent on board the other
ram, Ell Toussoun, and all the workmen,
with their tools and appliances, were or
dered ashore. In her case also no per-
son is permitted on board. The gunboat
Goshawk continues to be moored ahead
Of the ram. It is understood that the
iron-plated frigate Prince Consort is on
her way to Liverpool, but it is difficult to
ascertain whether this is correct or not.
The authorities are very reserved. Her
Majesty's steamer Majestic is already in
the Mersey. These hostile preparations
created much CONSERVATION, and it is be-
lieved that Messrs. Laird deem the seizure
altogether illegal. The other vessel
seized by government, the Alexandria,
still lies in the Toxteth Dock, Liverpool,
under embargo. Her case will come be.

preaching term.

MOVEMENTS OF THE vANDER.
BlLT AND ALABAMA.

New YORK, Nov 23.-The Tribune,s
Washington special says the Navy Depart
ment has information of the Vanderbilt
down to the I'd or Sd week of October.
She left Cape Good Hope early in the
month and when two days out fell in with
a Dutch vessel in disabled condition in
time TO save the lives of forty persons on
Board. The Vanderbilt took the vessel in
tow and returned with her to the Cape.
She then returned to sea thus losing four
days. At last accounts the Vanderbilt
was at the Island of Mauritas and the Ala
bama in the Bay of Bengal. Capt. Van
derbilt is believed to be well-informed
with regard to the rebel pirates course.

vigilant EXertions OF the English
Government to Prevent the Escape
Of the Rebel Rams.

From the Manchester Guardian, Oct 20.
There was report in Liverpool yester-
day that the rams had escaped; bat the
story was, of course, wholly unfounded.
From the Liverpool Courier, Oct Is.
Inquiry shows that the government has
been taking most extraordinary precau-
tons to prevent any attempted departure
of the rams. On Tuesday afternoon her
Majesty's steamer Heron arrived in the
Nersey, and took up position in front of
Messrs. Laird's dock, in which the least
forward ram, Ell Monastir, is lying. The
Heron did not anchor, but passed her cable
through the side of the ferry buoy, so that
it might be slipped at moments notice.
In this position she now lies, with her
fires banked and steam up. Marines were
landed and sent on board Ell Monastir.
Messrs. Laird's workmen were ordered off
the vessel, which remains in the exclusive
position of the marines No one is allowed
on board and the workmen's tools have
been sent ashore.

Revolution In Naval Artillery.-Ar.
rival of the Great Ericsson Gun.

The great gun which has been for some
months in course of construction for the
navy by Mr.. John Ericsson, arrived at
this city few days ago, and is now at
one OF the iron works being prepared for
service. For obvious reasons we are not
permitted to state it's location. It is one
of the most marvellous inventions of the
time, and if successful, will revolutionize
naval ordnance. Mr. Ericsson contracted,
some time since, to construct some thir-
teen-inch smooth-bore guns, which are to
have much greater initial velocity than
any now in use. He is to receive nothing
for them unless they burn over fifty pounds
of powder; for every pound of powder
beyond fifty Mr.. Ericsson is to receive
$4,000. He is confident of being able to
burn one hundred pounds, and is certain
of burning seventy-five pounds. The
solid shot will weigh 22O pounds.
The English sixty EIGHT FOUNDER (of 49,
500 pounds), said by his royal high
ness the Duke of Cambridge to be
the most powerful gun in the Eng
lish service, with sixteen pounds of pow
der (one-fourth of the CHARGE, has an in
itial velocity of 1900 feet per second, and
therefore punching power against iron
of 27,500,00 lbs. The rifed guns, with
charges of one-tenth to one-twelfth of the
saot, and the 15-inch gun, with charge
of IS pounds to its shot of 1926 pounds,
have velocities varying from LOO feet to
1,400 feet per second. The 3OO-pounder
Harrott has, therefore, punching power
Of AZ, 600, 900 pounds, and the 15-inch gun
of 100000 pounds. The new gun, with
75pounds charge (one-third of the weight,
will have as great a velocity as the g.
FOUNDER, and its punching power will be
100000 pounds, or exactly double that
of the English gun. With 100 pounds of
powder its velocity should be raised to
1000 feet, and its punching power will be
6S,0OO,OOO. It will thus be by far the
most formidable gun yet constructed. The
great superiority of our new guns to those
in use by foreign powers will readily be
noticed.-Ne,o York World

ON THE CANADA
LINE OF VERMONT.

BURLINGTON, Vt, Nov. 22.-Consider-
able excitement was caused yesterday at
Rouse's Point and St. Adams, by reports
thatra body ofsecessionsts werein Montreal,
and had planned to seize the fort at Mont
gomery, and destroy the draw bridge at
Rouse's Point and plumber Plattsburg and
Burlington. Information of such plot
reached Gov. Smith and Collector Clapp
of this Point on Friday.
They communicated with the officers in
charge of Fort Montgomery who soon had
their guns ready to give the renegades
warm reception. This scheme was prob
ably linked with the Johnsons Island
project.

Stage Life.

From recent well written, but in the
main, unjust criticism of the late James
Sheridan Knowles, which recently appear
ed in BLack,Oood's Magazine, we take the
following remarks upon stage life in gen.
sral:
And how strange thing is this stage life !
What strange loves and hates, virtues and vices
ambitions and herosms of all kinds, are seen
moving about in this mimic world. If the
stage does hold mirror up to nature, it Is one
of those convex mirrors which produce very
pretty pictures at times, very indistinct, where
in many objects are gathered into a little space
which the eye at once takes in Zone secret of
the pleasure both of the convex mirror and the
work of art;) but there is always some distor-
ton; the proportions are never true. Love
and ambition, as seen in this mirror assume
the most distracting forms. Every ambitious
man seems to have sold himself to the devil,
and sold his reason first of all-sold himself
piecemeal-in order that he may talk before
clothed in purple, and have the exquisite graft
fication of saying to his body guard, take mo
that man and kill hin!" This is the ordinary
type of kingly ambition.
E1As to love- its perfection is to be utterly IRA
tional. That the amorous hero loves at first
sight is to be expected, and is permissible.
Many men love at first sight, and some there
are WIZ ICpCSat bAC ACot OdJ dILCI Uuy. DuL Lie
stage-lover, whose passion is but eye deep,
nevertheless loves with the constancy of q
martyr. His is passion which starts into ex-
istence like the lightning, but which flames
persistent as the sun in heaven! Ye powers of
fate or chanceI ye can do nothing against it.
There may be every reason in the world not to
love-loss of fortune, loss of friends, loss of
selfrespect; and the lady herself may be false
as she Is fair-there is every reason not to love,
therefore he loves the more pertinaciOusly, and
exacts louder and still louder plaudits for bis
miraculous constancy.
One would naturally suppose that what
seems improbable when told to Us, would DO
still more fragrant improbability when acted.
But it is not SO; it is quite otherwise. The
fact that living man IL there, speaking and
moving before us, carries away our cree enco
for the moment. Seeing is believing. We
trembls for the mailman before us, or laugh at
his preposterous folly; but that he ex 70 is
manifest. We do not take the trouble It the
time of reasoning him out of existence-Of
proving that he Is and must be q nonentity.
He asserts his reality to our very senses of
sight and hearing. And this explains what we
must all have observed-that many broad farces
please upon the stage which simply offend BY
their extravaganza if we attempt to read them.
When we read the printed book, we think Of
the author and wonder that he could devise
such improbable stuff; when we see the piece
acted, tho same extravaganza makes US roar
with laughter, because our incredulity Is fairly
overcome, and we think of nothing but the
actual fool, or the intense absurdity before u.s.

A White Lieutenant and Twenty No.
groes Hung BY the Bebels.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 2s.-The following
is from letter dated Port Hudson Sd,
written by Captain in the 7th regiment
and addressed to his father in this city:
"We have just received information Of
. positive character that First Lieut.. Geo.
B. Colmer, Jr., Of New York, who was
captured about two months ago while cut
on raid, wa. hung within twenty-four
hours afterwards together with some
twenty privates (colored) who were taken
with him.
ut is hoped some action will be taken
on the subject soon, or the officers and
soldiers of the Corps d. AfTique will take
immediate and final action if ever they
get into a fight. The men of the COM
mand will endeavor to protect themselves
from such fate, though the Government
should neglect to do it,"

Lord Palmerston, in a speech at the
Lord Mayors banquet, deplored the Ameri-
can war. He said: ENGLAND would have
interfered, but for the belief that it would
have been in vain. She therefore would
