AToucH1KG CASE OF FEELIEa.-We heard
the other day of a man applying for exemP-
ton from the draft because he had an old
mother who needed his oherishing care. To
show how much feeling this aTectionate son
has for his old mother, his neigbbOrs say be
has had her coffin in the house for over two
years. He came to town with lead Of wood
one day, and being unable to sell it he con-
trived to trade it of with an undertaken for
a cOfin-his mother being old might die sud
denly and then, as TOodlss says, chow handy
it would be to have it in the house," Being Of
a frugal as we'll as an iugenius turn of mind,
he put tho coffin in the cellar to keep turnips
in, against such time as the old lady might
"drOp off," It must be pleasant reflection
to the woman that her coffin is down cellar
with turDips in it.

Re.oIutions Of the 1O5th.

We trust no one will fail to resd the
letter from the 1O5th Ohio, which we pub
lish on the fourth page. It contains re-
sponse Of Western Reserve boys to the eff
forts Of the home traitors to break down
the Administration and help the rebels.
The boys Of the 105th have heard Of the
scbeming Of the COpperheads, and are
justly indignant that those whom they
have left at home should be guilty
Of such plOttings against the Government
as are being brought to light daily at the
North. These men are properly charsc-
tsrized by the boys Of the 105th as pub
lie enemies" They are nothing else, and
as such deserve and shall receive the exc
Grafton Of all truly loyal men at this time,
and the disgrace which history has fast
eued upon the Tories Of the Revolution and
the Hartford Conventionists of 1914.

Canadian Opinion.

Hon. George Brown Of Toronto the lead
er Of the Liberal party in Canada and ed
itor Of the Toronto Globe, made a speech
before the Canadian Anti-slavery Society
q few days since. He said that if the pol
icy Of the present Government at Washing
ton prevails, the curse Of human slavery
will be swept from our continent forever;
and our hearts go up with earnest petitions
to the God Of Battles that He viii strength
en- the hands Of Abraham Lincoln and give
wisdom to his councils. BE is just returned
from a visit to England, whore he does not
fail to see that "the general sympathy was
very decidedly on the side Of the South. -
But this sympathy he traces to a miscon-
ception of the character and purpose of the
war, declaring that England is as anti
slavery as ever, and that the moment she
is convinced that the Proclamation an
nounces the adoption of an unswerving
policy, her people will be for the Govern
msnt and the Union. Such a speech viii
exert helpful influence in Canada and
Great Britain alike.

Tho what Is Its

This submarine battery, which has been
reported a failure, was toWed up to the
yard yesterday, having achieved an aston
ishing success. The rumor Of its value
lessness was printed for the purpose Of
keeping curious foreigners from trying TO
witness the experiments which were made
in New York harbor. When we state that
G shot discharged a considerable distance
under water, was sent some one hundred
and fifty yards in the air, the nature Of the
results reached by Captain Hunt may be
imagined. An order has been received
from the authorities to commence at once
on large scale vessel built on the same
principle as that tried, and the present one
is to-day to be hauled into the dry dock.
The What is it?" which has just been
so severely tested, is nothing more than a
huge square box, almost twelve feet high
and six feet wide, with an internal diam
eter Of some twenty feet A portfolio is
on one side, covered by sort Of ARCH
Within, gun Of indeseribable make and
strange appearance is mounted on the
floor IN such q manner that the muzzle
protrudes through the port. The singular
aspect of the cannon, however, is eclipsed
by the queer construction Of the ammuni-
tion, which consists of a square iron log or
bali, about one foot wide and two. feet long.
Egress and ingress to the battery are ef-
fected over the top, by means Of ladder,
and in through the before mentioned port.
The mode of working the vessel is and will
be kept secret The present one is mere
ly box to test the principle before incur
ring the expense Of building larger craft.
The inventor OF this machine, Captain
Hunt, of the Engineers, is confident of
making a submarine battery that will be
universally adopted as the best Of its kind.

with Field Mines near
Washington,

Experimenting with Field Mines near
Washington,
The editor Of the Washington Chronicle
gives the following description Of some ex-
periments which he witnessed on Friday
with field mines, which were exploded near
the forts on the Virginia side Of the PotO-
mac, by means Of electricity:
aArri7ing On the ground, we learned
that his Excellenoy the President was
there, accompanied by the Secretary Of
War, General Heintzelman, General Bar
nard, General Abercrombie, and many
other officers Of less note. Soon after
there was a great explosion Immediately in
our front; the earth opened and vomited
forth stones shot, and shell, vertically,
horizontally, and, in fact in all direc-
tons
Immediately around US we're number
Of the field officers Of the signal corps,
busily engaged in connecting the wires Of
a ield-telegraph to its support and among
them we saw Professor Beardslee, the in
ventor of the telegraph apparatus now used
in our armies From him we learned that
he was exhibiting the application Of his
new electromagnetic machine to the ex-
plosiOn Of mines, and that he was now
ready to fire another.
"Quick as the wires could carry the
spark, there was another explosion even
greater than the first, and the air was
again filed with earth and smoke, stones
and exploding shells some Of the latter
falling in uncomfortable proximity to our
person.
a third mine was exploded in the same
manner. In fact, we should judge from
our appearances that the ground in front
Of our forts had been extensively mined,
and it is only necessary for Professor
Beardslee to connect his apparatus with
them, pass the word, and they viii be ex-
ploded.
An order was now passed from Col
onel Alexander, Of the engineers, who ap-
pears to have charge of the operations, for
the crowd to fall back to greater dis
tance, as f0ugasss was about to be fired.
Taking up our position close to the Presi-
dent, we watched for the .fouqdSse. We
heard a deep, heavy, and angry explosion,
as if some Of the internal fires of the earth
were escaping, breathing forth earth and
smoke, stones and exploding shells, even
more fearful than before.
"What the .tousgasss is, the engineers and
the electricians must explain. We can
only say that it was q successful applica-
ton of science to the means Of auxiliary
defense. Itrained stones for acres around
and in front Of it, and must have carried

explosion, there was rush Of the soldiers

@AW AS@A1 ~ -
Times special
General Hooker has been in the city,
and was to-day in consultation with the
President and the Secretary Of War.
Late accounts from the army indicate
greatly improved discipline, and give
promise Of a state Of efficiency never before
known. There have been expeditions
making successful forays against the enc
my, capturing supplies, and gaining yalu-
able information. ..-
Smuggling goods into the rebel lines has
nearly terminated. .Desertion is becoming
a serious enterprise, and is rapidly dimin-
ishing.
The frequent captures Of mails going to
Richmond bids fair to destroy that hereto
fore Aourishing branch Of treason.
Our scouting system is admirably or
ganised, and at last are able to know some
thing of the position, force, and plans of
the rebels. Our cavalry arm has shared
the general improvement, and now, under
General Stonemsn, may be safely said to
equal in efficiency that Of Stuart.

General Hooker recently stated to a
New Jersey Chaplain that he had unlimit-
ed power, no restrictions whatever embar-
RAISING his operations. f'I have men
enough" he said to the Chaplain afore-
said, q to whip the rebels in front, and to
take care Of traitors in the rear, and I
mean 10 dc what the country expects at my
hands" he also stated, in the same con-
versation, thst his army would not be re-
moved from his present position, which
must put at rest the thousand and one ru-
mOrs on that point, which, fer some days
past have been bruited abroad. No trans
pOrtation Of boxes, trunks, Sc, is now per-
nitted to persons visiting the Army Of the
Potomac, General Hooker having issued
perenptory orders to that effect.

The telegraph has given limitations Of
another rebel raid into Kentucky. FrOma
gentleman who left Lexington, (Kentucky,)
81 I've o'clock yesterday (Monday) after
noon, and arrived in Cleveland this morn
ing, we have The latest and most reliable
reports from that region.
Three regiments, or parts Of regiments Of
cavalry, under ChenauIt, White, and Cleuse,
crossed the Cumberland at Mill Springs on
Friday last, on their way North. Notice Of
their movements, and near approach TO
Richmond, was received in Lexington on
Sunday, and small detachment was sent
early Monday morning to the Kentucky
river, 70 destroy the ferry-boat at Glay's
Landing but unfortunately they were too
late. The rebels were then crossingl In
the meantime, General Gilmore was at
Frankfort. Word was sent him, and he
came up TO Lexington at eleven o'clock, ae-
eompanied by regiment Of soldiers-the
IO0th Ohio. Three regiments Of infantry
had been sent the Saturday previous to
Danville. The rebels approached within
ten miles Of Lexington, at Athens, as if
they were going to attack the former place,
and then darted of suddenly to Winebes-
ter, probably with the design of destroying
the COvington Railroad bridge at Paris,
thus cutting of communication with Gin
einnati.
To prevent this 8 couple Of small brass
cannon we're sent on to Paris. Here there
were only about 500 soldiers to defend the
place. Nearly ell the able-bodied citizens
took up arms to assist in the defense Mon
day afternoon at Eve o'clock, when our in
fcrmant skedaddled, the rebels were said
70 be within few miles Of Paris. A large
rebel force was said to be in their rear
There are large quantities of eOmmissary
stores at Lexington. The railroad bridge
at Frankfort was carried away some weeks
since by freshet, and the design of the
raid appeared to be to cut Of Lexington en-
tirely, so that the forces following might
bag the spOils. There are probably a thou
sand sick soldiers there

FROM Kentucky.

LOUISVILLE, Feb. "a
The Journal gives various reports Of the
rebel invasion in that State, on the borders
OF the Blue Grass Region. The editor
thinks the rebels are threatening Lexing
ton, Frankfort Louisville, and Dsnyille.
The Journal learns that 100 rebel eaval-
ry we're at NicholsTille yesterday, suppOs-
ed to cut tho Louisville & Lexington Rail-
way midway. r-...- .-----
The Journal believes this is very for
midable invasion.
The Democrat learns that there were
only about 500 rebels occupying Rich
mond. It is believed there is an advance
of 10000 rebels marching on Lexington,
under General Longstreet. a.
These reports created Excitement but
the officers at headquarters deny their cor
