Why CHAMBFRsBURa WAS BURET.This act is
thus explained in a letter from Maryland ~ the New
Yolk Herdl2.
Just before leaving Wiamsport, General Early
mate some public Te:naThS regard to the butning
OF ChambersbuTg which OF interest. He said
that he ordered hundred thousand dollars in
gold TO be- demanded Of the town and that if the
demand was not complied with i'll three hours the
town was to be burned; ti-7t the Of money de-
mande1 was to reimburse andrew Hunter, William
Lucas, T.. }. Lee and Hon. Alexander X. Boteler
for their losses caused i'll the destruction OF their
property by order of General Hunter and that he
felt perfectly justified III the course he had pursued.
He explained how General Hunter had burned the
house of his (Hunters) cousin, in Jefferson county,
Virginia, and taken that cousin (AndTcW Hunter)
oi pTisoner and said that the act was brutal
one, because the inmates OF the house were not al
lowed time to save even portiouol their clothing.
In concluding he SAID it would be the future policy
of the rebel Government to retaatc III the severcst
manner fur all barhailtieS practiced against them -
lie delivered these remarks Ill Il calIn finn manner.
In private cUnversation he said that no man more
than himself deprecated the necessity of such act
as the one committed at Chambersburg, but that he
sanctioned it, believing he only doing his duty
to those people who had suffered by General Hun
ters orders and again, because he believed that by
retaliation such barbarous practices would be sooner
discontinued than III any other way. He WIS par
tlcuiaily severe General Hunter, and sald that,
should he fail prisoner into their hands. his lot
would be a hard one.'

LOCAL MATTERS.

IMPORTANT HaBEas CoRpUs CAsE-A. J. camp
Of Amherst, Virginia came before Judge Meredith's
Court on Friday the 10Th instant. on a writ OF ha-
beas corpus, directed to General Eppa Hunton. The
petitioner was represented by Mr.. John NJ. Speed,
Of Lynchburg, and Messrs Names Williams, Of
this city; the counsel for the 0oyernment, Colonel
Thomas p. August, Of the Conscript Bureau. and
Mr. James Neeson.
The petitioner based his claim for exemption on
the fact of having been recently, and while in
vice, elected Justice of the Peace, and under
the eonscript law and the resolutions of the Legisa-
ture, entitled to a discharge. The only testimony
offered was the cettfcate Of his election BY the
County Court and the recommendation of the Gov
ernor for his exemption. The counsel for the Gov
egnnlent made strenitoSs exertiolAs to defeat this
claim, it would set Pfecedcnt for other Of
similar character. They claimed that after man

discharge were not AyIeugnlous ltThks taat Con-
gTess had made pfusSsiSn for cxensPtlng certain
parties, but for di-siargng them: After elsbo
rate arguments by c5unsel on both sides, the Judge
decided that the party was entitled to his rclease,
and, accordingly, discharged him. The ro11ei for

rate States Treasurer, made heie&Appearance be-
fore Justices Riadisk sssn Eee Of Henrieo county.
ON Saturday the first to the charge Of be-
ing engaged as a second to Mr.. John NJ. Daniel in
a duel which was fought in the county on Tues
day morning last, and the latter as being one
OF the principals. Messrs. j. Marshall Hanna,
George W. Butler and DR. A. E. Petieolas were
anned, but As their testimony was the same
which was ELECTED before the Mayor Wednes-
day last, and which has already been published there
is no necessity Of again repeating it, DR. Peticolas,
indeed, more reticent in his testimony than on
the first examination, notwithstanding the fact that
the prosecuting attorney for Henrieo county, Mr..
John b. Young, read from legal authority to show
that fear of duplicating himself by answering
tam questions as witness need not prevent him
from disclosing all that he knew about the duel,
nothing which he might say witness could be
brought to bear against him in any future criminal
prosecution. On this subject some discussion en-
sued between the prosecutor and Hon. Humphrey
Marshall counsel for Mr.. Elmore; but the question
was not pressed by Mr.. Young, and DR.. Peticolas
was therefor6 permitted to remain silent In the
absence of Hon. Paulus Powell, alleged to be an
important witness in the case, the justices decided
to continue the examination till next Saturday, at
the same place, the county courthouse and the pa-
ties entered into recognizance i'll the sum Of $1,000
each for their appearance

McCleiian-what his Election will
Accompllsh

The letter of acceptance of General McClel-
Ian touches chord IN the National heart which
he, OF all men. seems best skilled TO arouse
We have heard sentiment except of joyful
approval from anv man who loves the Union
The alliance between the worst forms OF radi
Gals. at the North and at the South, seems TO be
complete, and all who desire the triumph of dis
union are working together against the election
OF Mcclellan. Hence the bitter Northern ADO
tionists and the bitter Southern radicals are both
violently angry at the letter
But perhaps the most important fact is that
those men in New York who best know the peo-
pie of the South, declare that this is the first
great step toward peace and union, That if Nc
Clellan is elected the people in the rebelous
States will lay down their arms and submit to
the Constitution This is confidently asserted
by men Of the highest character and the best
means of Information. that we cannot but regard
il as OF the utmost Importance.
We have never witnessed more enthusiastic
reception of any public document or speech
Every honest heart WAS filled with response to
its patriotic words The Union at all hazards
every effort FOR peace and union: no conditions OF
peace but union; the supremacy of law over
President army and people-these are golden
and glorious principles, unknown in Washington
but dear TO the hearts OF all the people Against
these il now placed the Lincoln doctrine, aud the
two stand side by side before the people, thus
