SHOOTING ARRAY AT UNIoNrowk, Pa
Friday evening last q man named Dr.
Sheppard, hailing from Fairmont, Va, who
had been stopping in Uniontown for short
time, while in grocery store, behaved bin
self in an unbecoming manner, when Sher
if Cope, who is Assistant Provost Mar
shall, .ndeavored to quiet him. Cope find
ing it impossible to quiet Sheppard, struck
him blow telling him to the floor. Shep
pard drew revolver and fred twice, the
first ball striking Mr.. Cope in the right
breast, inaicting slight flesh wound, and
the second entering tho thigh, producing
IN ugly wound. The persons in the store,
among whom was one of Mr.. Cope's sons,
were greatly excited, and the latter with
another man, seized Sheppard. and would
have dispatched him Immediately but for
the interference of Mr.. Cope himself, who
had Sheppard arrested and conveyed to jail,
where he is at present confined t. await his
trial. Cope's wounds, though painful, are
not considered dangerous

TIE GENERAL HOSPITAL We yesterday
visited the General Hospital in North
Wheeling, and were shown through the en-
tire building by some of the gentlemen
who are in attendance there. There are at
present one hundred and forty patients in
the hospital, only five or six of whom are
afflicted with serious or dangerous illness
The wards are in the best possible condi>
ton, and everything throughout the entire
building presents a clearly and healthful
appearance. DR.. John Kirker has charge
of the institution, and very creditably does
he perform his duties.
Only one thing is lacking 10 the institu
ton, and that is scarcity of reading mat
ter. 1t is true there is an abundant supply
of tracts and small religious works, but
something more than this is wanted. A
majority OF the patients are men who,
when at home, were accustomed to enjoy
their books and newspapers, secular and
religious, and to be cut off FROM them must
be privation keenly felt. We hope oul
people will have the defieie ncy speedily
remedied, and furnish a supply of good
books which will engage the men during
the long, weary hours of their confinement.

NEW YORK, Dec. I've have to-day
received some additional items from rebel
sources, showing how the fright on SHEER
mans approach to the sea coost IL spread
ing in Georgia and South Carolina. All
the officials, civil and military, have issued
fierce and feverish proclamations calling on
every male, old and young, able to shout
der a musket, to Immediately report for
duty. The Mayors of Savannah and
Charleston, as we'll as the rebel army Of
flcers comm anding in these places, have is
sued before their already terrified commu-
mites documents of this character, and are
probably by this means adding considera'
bly, to the panic.
Gov. Brown, of Georgia, has issued three
more proclamations on the crisis, but in
Charleston, according to the Republican Of
that city, even these stirring papers do not
bring out the citizens, for it appears that q
military guard has to 60 around the town
and drag them out of their hiding places
General Dick Taylor has been assigned
to the command of all the Alabama and
Georgia reserves, with headquarters at Sa'
vannah.
The Macon Telegraph, of Nov. 18th, says
Sherman's situation Is daily growing more
precarious, and we may confidently hope
for his complete overthrow and destruc
ton.
The Central road il said to be entirely
destroyed by Sherman, between Griswold'
vile and Mcintyre.
