Ina short while after, while the prisoners
were being transferred to the Federal
steamer which had been sent to take them
TO Fortress Monroe, the ono who was seen

inside, and int rmed that unless he handed
over the bundle which had been given him
by CashHeyer the whole OF them would be
taken back to Richmond The document
was readily given up. and then they were

Colonel Dahlgren.

The local columns Of the city papers,
or of most Of them. yesterday morning,
made reference to the intermsnt Of the
body of this dead Federal officer, and in
timated that it was Intentionally SO put
away as not to be found any more. This
it was inferred was considered well
merited disposal Of the last Of him. We
know nothing positively On the subject,
vet since this statement has reached the
public wa venture to suggest that the re
mains might have been applied more pro
i,tably. The only use to which we can
practically devote the remains OF the
dead is to employ them with some moral
advantage to tie living. We bury with
ceremony and pomp the great and the
rood. and mark their resting place with
a tomb of enduring material, on which
we insrribe some account Of their virtues
for the admiration and emulation OF tu'
ture generations. Why may we not de
rive beneficial lesson from a monument
OF an opposite character? Suppose Dahl
grsn TO be buried in prominent place, and
that stone should be set up over 1t sim
ply and briefly stating that there he was
and who he was. Ii would be monu'
ment ofinfamy-a beacon to warn all OF
the fate of one so execrahle. Ihe youth
of Richmond, when passing the spot,
would derive fresh courage ard renewed
determination to defend their country and
their homes as they contemplated the last
resting place Of the man who led on a
hand that came to burn their city and to
butcher her people. Don't put Dahigren
entirely away-let his memory 1.-Two and
endure as long as possible.
