Amputation

We were present Sunday morning
and witnessed the amputation Of the
'cs Of Capt. Tracy, 18th Louisiana Vol
unteers. Capt. T.. was wounded in the
Iato baltic by Il gunshot, the ball enter
ing just below the knee, and passing
entirely through the leg, cutting the
main artery. All efforts to save his leg
were abortivo, and as the only means
of saving his life the limb was taken
off. DR.. r. p. Bateman executed this
operation in the most skilltul and scion-
titic manner, and the patient, at last
accounts was doing finely" We hope
he may lorg live to be loved by those
for whose freedom he has suffered 50
much.

the arm at the late battles near Muir

and was taken off yesterday by DR..
Gentry, as the only Alternative by
which to save lis life. This hope is

king OF t"rrors." He has gone,
another martyr in the cause of free

Fire !

About 3 O'Clock this morning an
alarm OF fire was given. Proceeding
to the scoDo, we discovered that the
residence of Thomas Walker was in
flames. Nothing but Il beaureau and
bed was saved, so rapidly had the
flames spread, Indeed, they had en-
yoIopod the whole building before more
than one or two citizens were there
Mrs. Walker had not time even to save
what money she had in a drawer. 1t
IS a sad aftair-another family thrown
out upon the charity of the world.
But we feel that II people will aid the
sufferers substantially.

Sunday evening at the residence Of his
brother in-law, Mr.. Ebert Colyar. Mr..
Hyder was a resident Of Princeton,
Jackson county, Ala, and was in Win

quite painful, but brief. On Thursday
he was in our office, in the enjoyment

Joe. Johnston's Great Speech.

This great military leader seems to
be a man of most versatile talent. A
SCARED and skilIfl veteran on tho field,
he sometimes deals his trenchant blows
from tho rostrum. At Chattanooga
lately, being vocilerousIy called upon
for a speech, the old hero appeared
somewhat reluctantly, amid cheers of
greeting and said "GentIemen, | would
much rather sce you in the army"
The effect of this burst of ~eloquence
was electrical, and succeeded in at once
transporting his auditors to some other
quarters, whore they would be out of
the range of such hot shot.

MENT FAR SURPASSED.


the bloody pagoantry of the past fifteen
days, we can begin to educe some order
from what has before seemed a chaotic
maze. The last year died with the
boom OF cannon as his requiem, and the
infant brcathings Of '63 were greeted
by the rude lullabies of volleying
musketry-thc groans of the fallen an d
the wild enthusiastic cheering Of South
rons victorious. Many the deeds OF
daring there enacted, and many tho
scenes of romantic tinge that there
hected past the beholdcr's strained and
eager view. We pass from the main
battle lines of our valorous infantry
pass from the more immediate plains
of stl ife to view the splendid episode
TO which we now call attention.
All day on Monday, the 10Th Decom-
Dor, Gen. Whecler's cavalry were slowly
dropping back before the insolent adj
vance of overwhelming numbers. All
that day the men Of Bragg's army in
serried ranks awaited the long eX'
pccted but now imminent hour. AT
nighttail the long ranks of horsemcn
filed slowly to their position on the

light Of patriot devotion. A cold, drlz-

trusty hearts.
Then it was resolved to boldly at.

The fruits OF radical teachings, BY the
radical prints, are appearing in Missouri
A few days ago--are the words of the
Missouri Repubiicaa-'' scoundrelly mob
OF JacObins, the genuine spawn of such
prints, got together in Chillicothe, Liv-
ingston county, and tried to prevent
Judge McFerran from holding his Court,
OF which they were in great awe, for they
had themselves committed many crimes.
A man Of better judicial abilities, of fairer
MUD and more enlightened patriotism, it
would be impossible to find in Missouri.
A truer, purer Union man, does not exist
in the State He has served the cause of
the Union at the head or 2 regiment, and
is every way worthy OF the confidence
and esteem of all but rogues,
rascals and wanton revolutionists and
noltical and social incendiaries gener-
ally." The Union says-'They burnt the
.Judpe in effigy, and committed other dis
Graceful outrages. The Judge is gradual
emancipationist, and has used his best
exertions, as man OF pure character and
fine abilities, to rid Missouri of slavery in
the only practicable mode. This is his
otfense. The Democrat has for more than
six weeks past done what it could to cal
umniate Judge McFerran, and to draw
down upon him the vengeance of the
revolutionary faction 1t has succeeded.
Not so far, however, as to overthrow the
Court. The Judge held his Court, and
up to latest advices had defied the power
of the mob"
These are the direct fruits of radical
teachings The Jacobin set-we mean at
the North-we mean here in Minnesota
as well as in Missouri-who teach bold
traitorous disregard of State and Federal
Constitutions and laws, which lead directly
to arson and murder, deserve to be held
up as the worst enemies our country has

For what Time does the Payment
of $40 Exempt the Drafted
Man.
OPINION sbF CALEB GUSHING,

Caleb Gushing, ex-Attorney General OK
the United States, has, on request, given
the subiOined opinion on the following de-
cision of the War Department
Any drafted person paying $Ss0
is therefore exempt from further liability under
that daft: but not from any Subsequent draft
The opinion is as follows:
AS to the question, it is not plain to peloeive
why it was at this time made Il subject of in
situation by the Provost Marshal General, un-
less in the thought OF indirectly cOnstraning
drafted men to procure substitutes themselves,
instead of paying communication money for sub
stdutes; lnasMuch as it c:annct be determined
as practical question, either judcially or 9TH
erwise until q second draft under the present
enrolment shall have been ordered by the
President. Not until then will any actual case
arise. All determination of this possible future
question is premature and Intellectual at this
time.
But the supposed indacement of this instrue.
ton, if II exists, cannot be regarded as rule
Of statute construction applicable to the act;
its meaning as law is to be ascertained by legal
considerations
l respond, then, that the payment of the
communication money has the same effect, so far
as regards the personal responsibilities of a cit
izen enrolled and drafted, and ascertaned to be
liable to military duty us the furnishing of II
substitute, namely, to discharge the party for
the three years of that draft.
The act provides, that the person duly drawn
''shall be notified of the same within then days
thereafter, by a written or printed notice. to
be served personally or by leaving a copy at
the giace of residence, requiring them to APP
pear at the designated rendezvous to report for
duty and secondly, ''that any person drafted
and notified to appear as aforesaid, may on or
before the day fixed for his appearance furnish
an acceptable substitute to take his place in the
draft; or he may pay to such person as the Sec
rotary of War may authorize to receive it, such
sum, not exceeding three hundred dollars, as
the Secretary of War may determine, for the
prOcuration of such substitute x and
thereupon such person so furnishing the SUBJ
stitutc or paying the money shall be dischared
from further liability under the draft" (Sec
49,
Here the object of the payment of the COM
mutation money to the government is express
ly declared to be the procuration of a substi-
tute by the government.
Again, we find in the same section that the
act; in speaking of the penalty for non-appear-
ance at rendezvous on notice, has the words
presenting substitute or paying the required
sum therefor"
Here, also, the effect of the procure
me4t of substitute by the party himself
and that of the payment of the money
with which to procure substitute, are de-
clared in the same clause and in the same
words in that clause, to- wit, that by either
