A Danish officer, studious of testing the yari-
alton Of the rifles at the outposts of his camp
and was seen by German sharp-shooter at 600
meters distance who brought bis rifle to the
shoulder and drew line on the Dane. The
latter rejoiced at the opportunity of making a
fresh observation, and @hilst the soldier placed
himself against tree III order to take steadier
aim raised his glass to watch his movements
& That is all right, said he: the muzzle is
just on line with my breast-we shall see.
The trigger was pulled, and the Dane quietly
wrote down, "At the distance of about 600
Yards the deviation of ball from rled mus
ket is about one metre"

THE new wharf at this place is now about
complete. It extends into the water about 40
feet, giving about 10 feet of water we are told,
at low tide, thus enabling the largest vessels on
the bay to land here. 1t was erected under the
directions of Mr.. Winch, of New York This
is an aquisition long needed at this place,
aud should have been erected last fall.

SNAKE KILLING IN THE WEsr.-They are max
ing sad havoc with the Copperheads in the West
The Chicago papers come to us with reports of
recent townships and municipal elections in H.
linois in nearly all of which the Union tickets
have been successful. Some of the strongest
Copperlead districts in the State have been rev.
)utionized and in no instance, so far as reported
has there been Democratic" gain.
ST. Paul has been under Democratic control
for eight successive years At the election OH
the 5h, however, the Union ticket received
majority in every ward except one. So it goes
from the East to the West Everywhere Copper
headism is killing off the Democratic party
. Lincoln hayonets" are not circumstance
The municipal election in Kcnosha, Wiscon-
sin, resulted in the triumphant success Of the
Union ticket. The Democrats have carried every
previous election for ten years. South Carolina

THE EAST TENNESSEE CONVENTION. A dispatch
from Knoxville on the 18th inst. states that the
Greenville Convention of 1861 reassembled the
day before at the Court House in that city
About one hundred and sixty delegates reported
ia person, representing twenty twoaaounties.-
The President, Z. A. r. Nelson in opening the
Convention, made an explanatory speech, and
resigned the chair William Hessket was cho-
sen President,
Some exciting debate arose on a motion to ap-
point Committee on Credentials, with power
to determine the loyalty of delegate The whole
matter was tabled, and a Business Committee of
one from each county was appointed, which, up
to Wednesday noon, had not been able to agree
and report resolutions. The disturbing question
is whether the Presidents terms shall be adopt
ed as the basis for re-admittng Tennessee as
Free State.
Andy Johnson made a strong Emancipation
speech in Knoxville the same day, and flag
staff was erecteds on the spot where the Rebels
destroyed the old Liberty pole in 1861.
INCIDENT OF THE WAR-After the battle at
Bean Station, East Tennessee, the rebels were
guilty of all manner of indignity toward the
slain They stripped their bodies, and shot all
persons who came near the battlefield to show
any attention TO the dead The body of little
drummer-boy was left naked and exposed Near
by, in an humble house, there were two little
girls, the eldest but sixteen, who resolved to
give the body decent lnrial. They took the
night for their task. With hammer and nails
in hand, and boards on their shoulders, they
sought the place where the body of the dead
drummer boy lay From their own scanty
wardrobe, they clothed the body for the grave.
