EDIToRs LEADER:-I tslegFaPhed you
ths terrible tragedy which occurred here
to-day, the shooting in cold bloed of Ser
eesnt Daniel B. Monroe Of the 9Th Rsgi-
ment.
The act was one Of the most strociou1,
devilish crimes on record. Monroe was at
sAs Porter House in company with his
vile and child, expecting in few hours to
part from them, and share again the perils
Of the field. They had just returned from
the picture gallery, and he was sitting In
Che Office Of the hotel when the hend Ian
dsrs entered and thrust paper into Mon
rss's bosom. Monroe asked If he meant
to insult him. Lsnders passed out the
door, and requested Monroe to come out
As soon ss Monroe hsd passed into the
street, Landers drew & revolver and shot
him through the head snd he fell almost
instantly.
Lsnders is described as despicsble,
base wretch, cOpperhesd and the curse
Of the community. The jail was but few
steps from where Moore fell, and an effort
was made to get the demon murderer
within its walls before the exaspsrated
soldiers should take his life. TIE effort
was successful, but not until he had re.
CeiVed terrible punishment.
There seems to be no cause assigned for
the deed. Monroe was noble fellow uni
versally beloved BY his regiment and
highly esteemed here ct home.
1 was in Bueyrus the other day when
the three soldiers we're shot in Fulton's
drug store, bat as the train was leaving
could obtain but few particulars. I con-
Tersed with one Of the wounded, and he
stated that they called stthe store and un-
armed with no hostile intentions, and that
the elerkh Immediately commenced firing
Every one in Bueyrus knows that Fulton's
drug store is 3 notorious rendezvous for
the most Yenomous copperhesds.
Our returning soldiers are net quarrel

forget ihe rules Of etiquette in rail cars

HOUSE.

Mr.. Julian spoke In favor Of bill re-.
ported BY him, to extend the principles Of
the Homestead Law to persons in the mil
itary and naval service, on conhscsted
and forfeited lands.
The House proceeded to the considera-
tion Of the Senate bill TO facilitate entries
to soldiers under the Homestead Law.
The House then considered the PROPOSE
ion to pay for certain books heretofore de-
hVered by Gates & Seston, including the
question Of contract. After . debate the
subject was tsbled-6s against so.

HoMEsTEADs.

Mr.. Julian's speech to-day in the House,
on the subject Of the Homesteads for SOL
diers on forfeited lands Of the rebels, took
the ground that the rebels being bslliger-
ents they must be subject to the laws Of
wsr, to which they have appealed. The
lands Of the rebel leaders, who are the
principal land holders in the South, may
be legally forfeited under the tax Law, in
ternal revenue law, or the cOnfsostion act
when SO acquired. BE argued that they
should be devoted along with the rest of
the public dOmsin, to free homes for the
men. This system of small homestesds,
under free labor, would break down the
land monopoly which has cursed the South.

A correspondent Of the Commsroisl writ
ing from Lancaster, says that The Marshal
Of the city, who had also fed sssoon e. the
murder had been committed, and who was
charged with having struck one Of the sol
diers with his cane after See had shot him,
came back last week, and was arrested and
tried for assault and battery upon the
wounded soldier, and was acquitted. he
says that It was easily to be seen that this
trial was gotten up By the friendsAef See,
special effort being made 10 s5c6rtslh how
nearly 1t could be proved that the shooting
was done in 3 row. One man, who him
self was not long since put under bonds
for cutting q soldier, and who could not
prove his presence in the house at al, but
in the back yard, testified that See was as
saulted and his clothes cut with q knife
before he shot. Others testified that the
house was full /; that there was scufaing
and general fight on hand, etc, from al
which it appears that formidable defense
can be made for See, at least, with view
to reduce the grade Of his crime. On the
very next night John See In person report
ed to the Sheriff, and was committed to
jeil. There is no doubt but the old scoun-
drel was secreted by his butternut friends,
having never left the country.

The Times special says
WASHINGTON, May S.-The latest news from
the army received here is up to o'clock yester-
day evening, at which time General Grant fully
maintained his position.
The fighting on Thursday and Friday was very
severe, with skirmishng upon our left; bui
failing, the enemy fell ugpa centre, and
finally upon our risht, where the hardest contest
took place.
Here the Rebels charged upon our lines twice,
but were repulsed each time, with severe loss.
Hancock's corps charged back twice, and at
one time entered the enemy's intrenchments
commanded by General A. p. Hill but they
were ut length compelled to fall back. Sey-
mours division Of Hancock's corps was badly
cut up.
Generals Wadsworth and Bartlett are badly
wounded, the former having been knocked off
his horse by a spent mimic ball.
The number of wounded is reported at about
10000 and the killed at 2000 The loss of the
eIetny largely exceeds this.
The Times correspondent, writing from head
quarters at Wilderness Tavern, on Friday even
ing, May d, gives the following -
The day has closed upon a terribly hard fought
field. Lees tactics of throwing his whole army
