The Boston Traveller tells of man
who, at watering place, was seized in
the night with violent pains in his stom-
ach; cocktails were in vain. His wife,
unwilling to disturb the servants, went
into the kitchen and made mustard
poultice which she spread on her own
handkerchief. Returning she made
mistake In the room, and, entering,
gently raised the bed-clothes from a
sleeping form and placed the poultice
upon its stomach. The stranger leaped
from his bed, uttering strange oaths."
The lady screamed, her lord rushed to
to the rescue; there was grand tab
leau. The husband forgot his stomach
ache, but at early dawn left with his
wife for parts unknown. fa t9.4t .l .
Justice Shipman gave an important
opinion on Tuesday of last week in the
United States Circuit Court at New Ha-
ven, Conn, to the effect that tailor do
ing custom work of the value of more
than $1,000 annually is a manufacturer
in the view of the internal revenue law.

The Grand Conflict Begun.

The grand conflict has commenced.
Not only the two huge armies in Vir-
ginia, but the people of the whole Union,
are trembling with the shock Of the
battle
The ms i, snce received at the time
OF writing is in the highest degree favor
able. Ii viii be remembered that at each
Advance Of the Army of the Potomac,
the nntry has been electrified at first
with apparently as favorable reports,
The anxiety for further intelligence will
not be lessened by this recollection, But
though we cannot place much reliance
upon any details of the battles, now re-
ceived, seems hardly possible that up to
Friday night the results were not of the
most cheering character. The dispatch
of Secretary Stanton, published in our
yesterdays Postscript (the latest receiv-
ed at this hour) dated yesterday, and sta
ting that acquisitions have been made
by the army for supplies of grain, etc,
would alone indicate that after several
days hard fighting, the army is at least
in condition to maintain its ground.
Further observations are made by the
Secretary which are worthy Of consid-
Grafton as indicative of complete success
thus far, independent Of the other and
less reliable Geographic reports pub
lished.
While Grant and Meade are thus fight
ing Lee, the reports from Butler are en-
couraging, and from the West comes the
additional news that Sherman is advan-
cling, fighting and driving before him the
enemy in that quarter. There is 'thun-
der all round" again, and this time with
more hopeful prospects Of success than
ever before, God grant final victory
to the Republic, will be the anxious
prayer Of every patriot at home, while
the brave defenders in the field are bat
Ting the hordes Of rebellion in the great
contest for freedom and the Union.

SUFFERING IN RICHMOND. - The fire.
quent reports of restitution and suffer
fering in Rebellion, circulated at the
North, have been received with much in
credulity on the part ofmany, and espe-
cially so by those who are disinclined to
believe anything supposed to affect inju-
riously the rebel prospects Of final sue
cess 1t is doubtless true that many of
these reports have been exaggerated
But those inclined to doubt further that
there is great restitution of the necessa-
ries of life, even, at the South, will have
their doubts removed by reading the fol-
lowing brief account Of the condition,
not only ofwomen, accustomed to the
comforts and retlnements of life,n but
even of the "efficers of the govern
ment-rnen of talents and education,
in the capital of the "Confederacy."
The Richmond Sentinel says there are
more than three thousand women in
that city who are kept from starvation
by charity, and continues:
"They diligently seek employment in
all its avenues; they apply at the de-
partments they beg for copying and
needlework they do all they can to pro-
vide the means of support. But after
all is done, many timid, delicate ladies,
accustomed to the comforts and refine
ments Of life, are driven into the crowd
and the rush which wait round the
places where charity doles out it's scan
ty stores that all may have a part. II
is enough to make the heart bleed to see
the sadness with which applicants often
turn, disappointed, away. Truly they
have hard lot. And not the females
alone The person who lives on sala-
ry, or upon daily wages which may
sound liberal, has a perpetual struggle
with the sorest priyations. There are
officers of the government here who live
alone on bread Men Of talent and edu-
cation, whose services are Invaluable, |
are reduced to such necessities as this"
