Horrible Death. 90

DIR. G. M. Graham, of Perrysville, ftlrn-
ishes us the following statement relative to
dead soldier found last week: "On Fri
day last, some workmen accidentally found
a dead man near the track of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad four miles east of Perrys-
vile. He had on soldier clothes, fine gait
er boots; was apparently of medium size;
teeth considerably diseased, and the eye
teeth very close together. He had both up
per and lower jaws badly fractured; the
right cheek bone, the bones of the nose and
the upper jaw bone broken entirely off. He
was probably alive for some time after re-
ceiving the injuries as great number of
very small pieces of paper were scatteredin in
the bushes, near his body, evidently torn to
prevent the possibility of reading the in
scription. He had, presume, been dead
for about two weeks. An inquest was held
on the body by Justice Wallace, after which
it was inferred. The torn papers pro-
cured, and with great difficulty got reada-

THE New York Times says: "Maj j.-Gen
Milroy, commanding the District OF Ten
nessee, has created quite an excitement
among the rebel sympathizers of Nashville
and vicinity by recent order" So, after
remaining under cloud since the annual
raid and invasion of last year, Milroy again
makes his appearance, though not precisely
in what is termed ''active service."-Phila
Press. .. ....
Such men as MILRoY, like other disrepu-
table characters, are compelled to hide from
the public gaze for time, but when they
reappear, it is in their original parts. MIL
ROY is doubtless creating the same sort OF
excitement among the people Of Nashville
that he created among the people of Winches
ter, by capturing pianos and confiscating
female wearing apparel for the use of his
own family.

Especial dispatch to The world.l


In THE FIELD BEFORE PETERsBURG,l
August 3.
The mine, its unhoped for success, the
failure to attain our object, its damping eff
feet, and who is responsible for the said
failure, are subjects which have engrossed
the military mind for several days past.
To-day, however, we have new topic, in
the rumor that the enemy had fully pre-
pared 10 blo,u up one of our forts last night,
but had postponed doing SO for some
reason which has not been made known.
The fort they were, to have demol-
ished is situated on the line held by
the Fifth corps. The information of their
intention was given by deserter who ar
rived in our lines shortly after dark, and
was believed to be true. Engineers acho
sounded the fort pronoancedI IL to 6e under1ntn-
ed, and thus partly corroborated the state
ment of the deserter. Measures were i'm
mediately adopted to thwart the designs of
the enemy. The men manning the battery
were ordered to leave it and retire to po-
sition where they would be secure, and the
remainder of the corps were Immediately
placed in position to repulse any attack
that might be made, with orders to remain
on the alert during the night. Morning
dawned, however, without any demonstra-
tion-haying been made, and the troops again
occupied their original positions. The dis
tance from our line to that OF the enemy is
not, at tle point where they have mined,
over six hundred feet. l suppose we may
look for the springing of this mine at any
moment, unless, by countermining, the enc
my's designs are frustrated.
WASHINGTON, Aug. For some time
past it has been known that the rebels were
mining on Warren's front with the purpose
of repeating upon us Grants tactics of the
29th. Shafts were sunk by our forces and the
enemy's mines discovered. The discovery,
however, was not made known to the rebels.
They were permitted to continue opera
tions, as they supposed, to a successful is
sue; meantime being closely watched. On
Friday, the 5th, it became evident that the
enemy was ready to spring a mine and
preparations were made to thwart
them. That night our siege guns
and batteries were quietly removed
from the Notifications mined, wooden
artillery substituted, and every thing made
ready for the expected operations. Batter
les were posted to the right of our works,
and the troops properly disposed to meet
the expected attack. On Saturday the mine
was exploded, blowing up the abandoned
fort and valuable Quakers. The rebels i'm
mediately charged, and few of them, some
fifty or sixty in number, who succeeded in
escaping the water, were captured in the
intervening ground. Enfiladed as it was
by our fire, it was too uncomfortable for
the rebels, and they quickly retired, leaving
large number of dead and wounded upon
the field. Our casualties were exceedingly
few. Among them was Col. Steadman,
11Sth Connecticut, wounded.

The Lnte Kentucky Election and
Hts Lesson.

We have already told our readers that
Gonoral Rnrhridqa nf Kentucky, issued
an order to the Sheriffs OF the Second JUDI
cial District of that State, not to allow
the name of Judge Duvall to appear on the
poll books as a candidate for reelection to
the Court of Appeals.
The order was issued but three or four
days before the election, so late, as, we have
no doubt was believed by the author, to
prevent the running of any candidate in
opposition to the Lincoln nominee for that
office. Nevertheless, the people, in ma
jority of the counties, started new candi-
date, Judge Robertson, on the day of cleo
tion. and elected him by an overwhelming
majority. In three counties the order OF
General Burbridge came too late. In these
counties-three in number-Judge Duvall,
we are informed, got more votes than did
the Lincoln nominee In the whole nineteen.
A more signal rebuke we have not known
administered to arbitrary power since the
war commenced.
We congratulate the people of not only
Kentucky, but the whole country, on this
evidence of life in the gallant old Common
wealth. 1t shows quickness, a spirit and
determination that promise well for the fu-
ture. General Burbridge doubtless thought
that, by his Infamous order, and by arrest
ing hundreds of prominent citizens on the
eve of the election, he would COW the peo-
pie SO that they would not dare make
their appearance at the polls. He has
found that he did not calculate rightly their
temper. What could have been prac-
tised with impunity one year ago by mill
tary authority, is very dangerous to be at
tempted now. A different spirit rules the
people now from that of twelve months

From and after Monday, July II, 1864,

paper in Columbus has increased nearly
one hundred per cent. The price of white
paper has advanced to twenty cents per
pound, and is still going up-being more
than double what it used to sell for; the
price of type-setting is more than fifty per
cent. higher than it was; press-work is one
hundred per cent. higher; rents and fuel
have doubled, and every other item which
enters into the cost of publication has ad-
vanced in like proportion. To meet these
increased expenses, we raised the price of
advertising as much as practicable; but the
late sudden advance in the cost of white pa
per leaves no alternative but an advance of
subscription rates.
1t will be seen that the new scale of prices
is an increase of but twenty-five per cent.
on the old rates, while the cost of publica-
tion and ofliving has increased nearly four
times that amount. We purpose to return
to the old standard of rates, whenever the
price OF sprint and labor shall fall enough
to render it possible. We believe that no
fair-minded reader will object to the new
rates, nor consider them more than right
and necessary under the circumstances:

A NARROW ESCAPE OF BRAVE MAN.
The Belfast Age relates remarkable escape
from death on the battlefield. Calvin Aldus,
of that city, soldier of the 9TH Maine,
while advancing upon the rebel fortifica-
tions near Petersburg received no less than
fifteen bullets through his clothes without
having scratch. As he mounted the
breastworks ball struck his skull, and
glancing off, ,lefthimsenseless on the ground.
While laying there no less than four charges
back and forth were made over his body.
Coming to his senses, and the rebels seeing
him move, they put seven balls into vari-
ous parts of his body, and to finish him hit
him on the head with a musket. Every one
supposing him dead, he lay for some hours,
but finally reviving was ssent to the hospital,
and brought to Aug ista, from which place
he made his escape and got as far as Balti-
more on his way to the front again, when a
surgeon seeing his unfit condition, sent him
back. This plucky fellow is now at home
in Belfast, but bound to get back at the first
opportunity. roUA a1 raa}
