A Bounty Jumper Attempts to Escape
and is Shot.

The city at the present time is filled with
men termed bounty jumpers, that is those
who receive the bounty and desert in order
to again obtain the bounty. The different
barracks through the city contain number
of these men, and double guards have to. be
stationed around the rendezvous that they
may not escape. During the past week no
less than one hundred have effected their es-
cape from the barracks at Twenty-third and
Filbert streets On Saturday evening, be-
tween eight and nine o'clock. three men at
tempted to get away. Two of them succee-
ded, bat the third was shot. They jumped
from the second story window of the west
wing of the building on to she'd One of
the guard detecting them ordered them to
halt No attention was paid to the order ard
the guard fired but missed his man. By this
time two of the bounty jumpers reached the
ground and made off The guard again fir
ed and shot the third deserter while on the
shed. The ball penetrated his lung. The
wounded man died, yesterday morning about
o'clock. His name is Thomas Mehen and
he resided in the neghborhood of Twenty
third and Coates streets The deceased is
reported to have jumped the bounty in differ
ent regiments. When taken to the barracks
he assumed the name of Michael Herr.

Questions Respecting the Education of
INDECENT Children made Orphans by
the war, to be answered by Sc
cretaries of School Boards.

Fhe Governor, in his annual message,
urges upon the Legislature the claims of
''the poor orphans of our soldiers, who
have given or shall give their lives to the
country in this crisis" and expresses the
opinion, 'that their maintenance and ed
ucation should be provided for by the
State" OF the justice of this claim no
one for an instant can doubt. The first
step toward carrying out this humane
suggestion of his Excellency, is to ascerA
tain the number of such children in the
State.
This can best be accomplished by the
officers of the school boards, in the sever
al counties and cities 1t will be an act
Of benevolence that will result in good to
those who have been made widows and
orphans by the war. You are. therefore
requested to forward to this Department,
answers to the following questions, viz:
lst. What is the number of INDECENT
children in your school district, whose
fathers have been killed, or have died in
tue military or naval service of the Uni
ted States?
I'd. Are there any institutions of learn
ing in your county, that viii undertake
to provide for the maintainance and edu-
cation of number of said orphans, if Sc
curity be given that all reasonable expeni-
ses shall be paid by the State?
Sd. If there are any such schools, how
many children will each take?
1t is highly important that this circu-
lar, with the questions answered, be re-
turned promptly by the fifteenth of A.
pril, if possible. This Department can
not too strongly urge upon the officers
herein addressed, the necessity of prompt
action in this matter. They may thereby
bring JOY to many sorrow stricken, des-
titute family.

charge, give assurance that they mean to
10 their whole duty faithfully and vigor-
ously. The man who called for 100000
men has since called for 100000 more.
He knows the necessity for them, and
may see the necessity for more yet. The
probabilities are that no more will be
wanted, but, until those probabilities have
dwindled into certainty, he would be
worse than mad-m who would at
tempt to deceive the people, by prophe-
cy that the end had come. Such is nei-
ther the policy nor practice of the Repub-
can press. We cannot say, however,
that the Squire would not find himself at
home in just such work.
Third: Says the Squire-"If the
men were wanted merely for the REIN
forcement of the army to accomplish le-
gitimate ends, why not call to active ser
vice the companies and regiments station
ed in almost every town throughout the
Northern States" The Squire will
probably agree with US, when we say that
to put down rebellion is to accomplish
a legitimate end. For this end the men
were called, and must come. SO much
being settled, we have but to answer the
question which closes the sentence.-
There are several reasons why the men
stationed in the Northern States are not
sent to the army First, the great bulk
of them are invalids; second, they arc
employed in guarding rebel prisoners ia
ken in arms against the Government !;
and, third, they are necessarily detained
where they are to keep in check those
Democrats who, like the Squire, have
not the manliness to come out and fight
for their principles as their Southern
brethren do, but who yet go sneaking
around, and attempt, by every means, to
destroy confidence IN the government,
and aid in the assault upon its life. For
the accomplishment of just such object
was the article under consideration writ
ten and it is to hold in abeyance just
such spirits as its author that men are
necessarily detained here, while others
are drawn to eli their places in the army.
Let a change come over the spirit of
your dreams, Squire draw the support of
your co-partizans to your government,
aud you will hear nothing further of
drafts, and but little more of the rebel
lion.

"a Dogs Burial"

The Richmond Examiner, in charac
teristic article in reference to the death
and burial of Col. Dahlgren, gives de-
scription of how the body of the dead he
70 was "riddled by avenging Southern
bullets'-how it was stripped naked
and robbed of all the valuables upon it, y
and how 'the fingers were cut off to Sc
cure the diamond rings upon them" and
tten goes on to tell what had become OF
the mutilated remains as follows:
yesterday afternoon the body was re-
moved from the car that brought it to
the York River railroad depot and given
to the spot Of earth selected to receive it.
Where that spot is no one but those con-
cerned in its burial know or care to tell.
1t was dogs burial, without coffin, wind
ing-sheet or service. Friends and rela-
tives at the North need inquire no furth-
er; this is all they know-he is buried a
burial that beftted the mission upon
which he came"
Such were the savageries practiced up-
on the dead body of this gallant North
ern brave. First his "6ngers were cut
off, "and then his mutilated remains con-
signed to dogs burial" 1t is possible
that the "chivalry" of the South-sthe
brothers of the sires of Seventy Six, ~
could condescend to such brutalism p
Yes, It's too true! What think our Cop
oerhead neighbors of their edear South
'rn brothers" now.
