A Strange Scene In a Church,

There are queer people in Chicago, and
the local columns Of the press contain ire.
queut details of events happening in that
fast city which, for the credit of the oiti.
zens, had better not have been published.
Human nature in its general phases, we
presume, 10 the same in the cities of the
Lake as 1t is elsewhere. The Chicago
press, however, are more particular in VEN
tilatiug domestic tragedies aud deliuqu
cies. Here is a funny sample: "a row
about pew."-Lucius J. Cobb and Henry
Wiley are members of the Edwards church
(Presbyteriau), corner of South Halstead
and West Harrison streets, in good stand
ing. Mr.. Cobb, it seems, had rented and
occupied the same pew for over year.
Recently payment for the same was re-.
quested by the Trustees, which Mr.. Cobb
declined, until q bill which he had against
the church should be liquidated. Similar
demands from time 10 time were made upon
him; he still refused payment until the
Trustees should audit his bill. Last Sun.
day morning Mr.. Wiley, one of the Trus.
tees, In company with an associate, named
Holmes, went to Mr.. Cobb's pew, before the
services commenced and took foreible pos
session, with the intent to prohibit the
further use thereof by Cobb. Tho latter
arrived at the church shortly after, just as
the services we're commencing. He was not
dismayed at the hostile attitude assumed
by the fresh occupants of his pew, and he
proceeded leisurely to enter, when Mr.. Wi
ley forcibly interfersd, pushing him vi et
drmiS into the aisle. This highly secular
proceediog was not relished by Mr.. Cobb,
who preferred charge OF assault and bat
terry against Wiley. The latter was fined
SIS and costs by the Justice. ai

be adduced should occasion require.
Yesterday afternoon the rebels brought
a battery down into the.Woods opposite our
left, and commenced firing at the signal
tower. The first two shots fell short, the
third q 30ipound Pdrrott, went whiEziug
over the battery, aud landed In Fort Wis
cousin. They were beautiful line shots.
The guns from Capt. Follett's battery; 10
charge of Lieut.. Thompson, were at once
opened upon them, and the rebels soon
beat retreat. While the firing was going
on, two naval captains, commanding gun.
boats on the river, and who CHANGED to be
ashore, came into the river, and who
CHANGED to be ashore, came into the battery.
One of them was exceedingly excited, and
instead Of q rebel battery of two or three
guns firing at us, one would have supposed
from his actions that We were attacked by
the whole Southern Confederacy. They
soon left for their boSts, and the Oommo-
dore Perry was dropped down stream aud
opened FIRE from her 9 inch gups. Entire.

done the work. Nov comes the sequeI.-I
The Commodore Perry left to go down to
Bermuda for ammunition. The General
Putnam came up and commenced firing

the rebel battery had done firing. Gen.
Graham, commanding army gunboats, sent
the Captain word that it was unnecessary,
aud firing could stop. Even after that four
shots were fred. W.H.K.

THIs is one of the. most beautiful and
pathetic stories of the war. 1t is told by
Mr.. Wilkinson, in The Tribune; u
Paymaster Rochester, feeling his lips to
be unsealed by the death Of General
WsdswOrth, tells that he always paid
him from his entry into the service: and
that when the General called on him for
money on the eve of starting to the Mis-
sisslppi Valley on special mission con-
nected with the armiug and organization
of the slaves of that region, he casually
remarkedl him that when he got to New
Orleans he would find there Paymaster
Vedder, to whom he would recomnuend
him as gentlemanly officer to apply for
any moneys he might need. "No, Sir,''
said Gneral Wadsworth, 81 shall not ap.
ply to Major Vedder. While am in
the service I shall be paid only BY you.
And my reason for .that-is, that. / wish
my account with the government to be
kept with one Paymaster only; for it rs
my purpose atthe close of the war to call
on you for an accurate statement of all
the money have received from the Uni
ted States. The amount, whatever it is,
shall give to some permanent institution
founded for the lie relief OF disabled
soldiers. This is the least individuous
way in which can refuse pay for fight
ing for my country in her hour of dan

Ny DEAR MADAM: Not being very
dextrous with a pen, ma'am, and tron.
bled with a romantic twinge in nv right
shoulder, my little boy, which is Isaac,
writes for me to say how facilitated |
should be to make your invitation accent,
able, and come to your SalutarY Fair on
the 18th. Most salutary it is to be sure,
where war is so destructible to human
life, dear me, and clothing is nothing.
What would the poor soldiers have done
if that excellent body and soul hadn't
come, with healingiOn bis wingsand:bring-
ing consolation and new Clothes to say

torn up for nbandages for the sufferers,

good 1t has done and may do, may hea1-
en- be rewarded for it, and / am very sor-
ry thatI cannot come and be one Of the
features Of the Fair, though my features
are mot fair; but, bless, you, you may
have the features without my comming
at all, for have got friend to go and
sit for me at photographers, whose linz
iments l send in this. They are not
handsome, but that is not his fault nor
mine. .sas B. -.r .a7.
l wish was as rich as Creosote, and
had bank eff money to send you; but
alas, the will must be taken for the deed,
though that may not bring the fracture
of cent in the great aggregation. That
the purse of the Commissaries may be
crowded with green<backs, and their
hands and hearts strengthened for good
by your Fair, is the desire of my heart,
which it is my prayer that it may be re,
allied. Yours devotionalIy ...
