Singular Incident.

We learn from the Chicago JournaI
that on Tuesday of last week, when
the train arrived at St. Charles, pas
sengcrs were startled at discovering
dead man sitting upright in his seat
in the car, his eyes wide open and bis
features rigid in death. He had pur-
chased ticket at Fulton, and was on
his way to visit his brother at St.
Charles, whom he had not seen in sew.
eral years. The brother was waiting
at the depot, little anticipating the
sad surprise that was in store for him.
The cause of his sudden death was
not known.

From Gen. Grants Command.

Gen. Grant is on the march again,
and it is generally understood that
when he moves rebellion must trem-

severe battle was fought at Tunnel
Hill on Wednesday and Thursday OF
last week. Our loss is variously es
timated at from one to three hundred
The enemy's loss in killed, wounded
and prisoners is not less than five hun

Dalton, where there is a heavy force
1t is supposed that Grant will move
upon them as soon as Sherman comes
up to attack them from below. Brisk
work may be anticipated in Grants
Department. Longstreet and John
son have united their forces and now
have an army of $4,000 to oppose
Gen. Grant.

lost his temper. The guard, observ-
ing that Morgan stood lightly on one
foot, suddenly jerked it up and pulled
off the boot, when out dropped file.
This caused the Kentucky horse thief
to indulge in profane language. The
kniyes which were thus collected are
preserved by the Warden as trophies.
1t is not proper to state how the reb-
els came into possession of some OF
the tools, nor how their plot was dis
covered and frustrated The result
is, that hereafter, they will be more
closely watched than before. Gov
ernor Brough has ordered that the or
binary prisoners be removed entirely
from the west wing of the building,
and the rebels placed in possession.
The rebels sharpened the knives by
rubbing them between the stones in
their cells. Hereafter their meals will
be served them there, and they will
not see anybody but their guards. As
a rising among the prisoners at Camp
Chase was also in the programme,
General Heintzelman stationed a
double guard there last night.

Daring Rebel Plot.

A special dispatch to the Cincinnati
Gazette, dated Columbus, February
22d, says:
A few days since, Basil Duke, who
has been at Camp Chase on parole for
the past two or three weeks. express
ed desire to be taken back to the
Penitentiary. He urged this with SO
much persistcncy as to lead Governor
Brough and General Heintzleman to
suspect that he had some other object
in view, than simply return to his
old quarters in the prison. Prccau-
tionary measures were Immediately
adopted, and the Governor very soon
had the satisfaction of knowing that
his plans were successful. They un-
masked deep laid scheme, on the
part of the rebel prisoners, to attempt
an escape. The rebels plan was to
briefly overpower the guard when
they were in the hall, as they have
been permitted to be, and force their
way through at whatever cost. They
had armed themselves with knives.
which they had stolen from the tables
from time to time, and sharpened for
the work. These knives have stout
blades four or FIVE inches long, thick
backs and heavy wood handles. and,
when ground down to sharp point
and edge, as they were, make ugly
and formidable weopeas. They had
provided themselves with files, one of
which was ground 80 as to serve as a
w-driver, and one Of the men had
nearly completed wooden key, which
could he used. if necessary but their
plans were for a short and bloody
work.
Yesterday was the day set apart
for the attempt, but to the surprise OF
the prisoners, they were not permitted
their usual freedom. At breakfast
they were taken to and from their
cells with double guard. In the af-
ternoon they were taken out singly
and searched in the presence OF the
Warden and Governor. All bore the
search with tolerable composure ex-
cept one of the Morgan brothers, who

WORTH REMEMBERING.

We have probably all of us met
with instances, in which word heed
lcssly spoken against the reputation
Of a female has been magniied by
malicious minds until the cloud has
become dark enough to overshadow
her whole existence. To those who
are accustomed-not necessarily from
bad motives, but from thoughtlessness
Ito speak lightly of females, we rec.
ommend these hints" as worthy Of
consideration "never use a lady's
name in an improper place, at an i'm
proper time, or in mixed company
Never make assertions about her that
you think are untrue, or illusions that
you feel she herself would blush to
hear" When you meet with men who
do not scruple to make use of wo-
mans name in reckless and unprin-
cipled manner, shun them, for they
are the very worst members Of the
community-men lost to every sense
of honor-every feeling of humanity.
Many good and worthy woman's
character has been forever ruined and
her heart broken by a lie, manufac-
tured by a villain, and repeated where
it should not have been, and in the
presence of those whose little judg-
ment could not deter them from circu-
lating the foul and Dragging report.
A Islander is soon propagated and the
smallest thing derogatory to q wo.
mans character will fly on the wings
of the wind, and magnify as it circu
lates, until the monstrous weight
brushes the poor unconscious victim
Respect the name of woman, for
your mothers and sisters are women
and as you would have their fair name
untarnished, and their lives unimbit.

Supposed Murder.

Exchanges inform us that one day
last week fire broke out in barn
attached to the Farmers Hotel, in Chi
cago, speedily consuming the building
aud all its contents. In the shoulder
ing ruins were afterwards found the
charred remains of a man, twelve hor
SEES, two oxen and hog. From pie
ces Of clothing found upon the bod,
of the man, it is supposed that be
was a member Of the 18th Illinois
cavalry. A pocket looking glass
found upon the body, was marked
with the letters +. I. G. How the man
came to be in the barn is not known
but, as the skull was fractured, it is
supposed that he may have been muir
dered, his body thrown into the barn
and the latter set Oh fire to concea
the deed. ...
