THE LADIES ON THE STREET.

Amid all the rare enticements OF busl'
ness speculations, who is there who can
not find time to give one thought 10 the
"dear creatures" passing by his door :
If there be any sinner so hardened IN
his heart that he does not feel a quicker
palpitation, an electric thrill as "Heav-
ems last best gift u floats airily towards
him. then we vote him horrid
wretch.u who is fit for nothing on the
earth but to be an old, lone bachelor all
the days of his life.
Like bright CLEANS of sunshine fash
ing through the waving tree-tops down
into the dark recesses of the cherries
forest, is the dear, delightsome presence
of the ladies on the street. Flashing
around the corners, fitting along the
square, gliding in and out of fancy stores
and gay dry goods bazars, whereverthey
co shedding benign influence upon all
observers, and throwing ray of light
and love over the dismal labors Of the

Broad street to Seventeenth street, thence
mn Seventeenth street to its northern ter
minus, and thence up the hill to Mr..
RowIett's, reaching the last place at 2
o'clock on the morning Of the 9TH of
April. Here the body was wrapped in
a blanket, and Mr.. Lehman came to the
city in search of a coffin, which he OBJ
tanned by the aid of Mr.. Lipscomb. On
his way into the city from Rcwlett's
Lohman notified q number of persons of
Union sentiments, among whom were
several ladies, where the body had been
placed, and they hurried out to see it.
Several of these persons had seen Col.
Dahlgren while he was exposed at the
York River Railroad depot, and imme-
diately recognized the body as his. The
metallic coffin having been procured,
and the body placed in it, the two Lob
mans, at noon on the 18th, set out with
it, concealed in wagon loaded with
Young fruit trees, for the farm of Robt.
Orricks, Union man, living in Henri
co, two miles from Hungary station.
AT 4o'clock that evening, they reach
ed Orricks's, and buried the body under
an apple tree, in a field, avoiding the
graveyard for fear of exciting inquiry,
which might lead to discovery.
The rest of this story may be told in a
few words. Orricks, some months after
the second burial of Colonel Dahlgren,
succeeded in getting through the Con-
federate lines; and seeking an interview
with Commodore Dahlgren, informed
him of what had been done to secure
the body of his son. The corpse of the
soldier laid in this its second grave until
the evacuation of Richmond, when an
order having been sent for it by the War
Department, it was again disinterred by
the two Lohmans and sent to Washing
ton.
1t has been our object to lift the veil
of mystery from an obscure and inter-
esting event. In doing so, we have con-
fined ourselves to facts strictly relative
to the secret fate of Colonel Dahlgren's
body from the time of its arrival in Rich
mond, which, until after the capture of
the city, remained, to all except the few
individuals named by us in the course of
our narrative, one of the most impene-
trable mysteries of the war. Many Con-
federate officials knew thatth body had
been deposited at lakewood, but they
were ignorant to the last that it had ever
been removed. 1t has at length found
its last earthly resting place.

recovery of the Colonel's watch, in con.

Richmond Union men:
HEADQUARTERS MILITARY POLICE,
NORFOLK, Va, July 81, 1865
1t affords me great pleasure to have
been instrumental in capturing and re-
turning the accompanying relic of the
heroic and renowned Colonel Dahlgren,
to his relatives and friends.
This watoa was taken from the ''ody
IF Colonel Dahlgren, after he mad fallen
victim to successful ambuscade, by
re Lieut.. Hart, of the rebel cavalry. II
Ws proudly shown in rebeldom as q
recy important relic, until Colonel Ould
ntered into negotiations for its recove-
e; then, learingto be dispose ssed oft, its
ptor concluded that it would be more
aiely concealed in other hands; it con-
equently changed hands several times.
received information which made it
positive that the watch was in the pos
session of a certain gentleman, resi-
dent Of this city, but lately from Rich
mond. I arrested him in person, told
MIN that I must either have the watch
or himself, and convinced him that I
would take no refusal.
1 finally released him under bond OF
81 600, to produce the watch, which he
said was in Matthews County, in his
wife's trunk. Inside of 4s hours, the
watch was placed in my possession, and
by me turned over to Brevet Brigadier
General o. j.. Mann, Commanding Sub
District, Norfolk, Va.
