The Dead at Andersonville.

The official report of Captain J. NJ.
Moore, who was sent to Andersonyille.
Georgia, to mark the graves of Union
prisoners for future identification, gives
the following information:
On the morning of the sSth of July,
the work of identifying the graves,
painting and lettering of head-boards,
laying out walks and inelosing the Gem
etery, was commenced, and on the
evening of August 10th was completed,
with the exceptions hereafter mentioned.
The dead were found buried in trenches,
on site selected by the rebels for that
purpose, about three hundred yards from
the steekade. The trenches varied in
length from fifty to one hundred and
fifty yards. The bodies in the trenches
were from two to three feet below the
surface, and in several instances, where
the rains had washed away the earth,
but a few inches. Additional earth
was, however, thrown on the graves,
making them of still greater depth.
So close were they buried, without cof-
fms, or the ordinary clothing to cover
their nakedness, that not more than
twelve inches was allowed to each man;
indeed, the hstle tablets marking their
resting place, measuring hardly ten
inches IN width, almost touched each
other United States soldiers, while
prisoners at Andersoaville, had been
detailed to inter their companions; and
by simple stake at the head of each
grave, which bore number correspond
ing with similar numbered name upon
the Andersonville hospital record, was
enabled to identify and mark with a
neat tablet, similar to those in the cen-
eteries at Washington, the number,
name, rank, regiment, etc., and date of
death, Of twelve thousand four hundred
and sixty-one graves, shere being but
four hundred and fifty -onewhieh bore the
inscription Unknown u. S. Soldiers" &"
Nothing has been destroyed. AS our
exhausted, emaciated and enfeebled SOL
diers left it, so it stands to-day, as
monument to an inhumanity unparal
leled in the annals Of war. How men
could survive as well as they did in this
pen, exposed to the rays of an almost
tropical sun by day and drenehing devs
by night, without the slightest covering,
is wonderful. The ground is filled with
holes, where they had burrowed in their
efforts to shield themselves from the
weather, and many poor fellow, In
endeavoring to protect himself in this
manner, was smothered to death by the
earth falling in upon him. A very
worthy man has been appointed super
intendent of the grounds and cemetery,
with instructions to allow no buildings
or structures of whatever nature to be
destroyed, particularly the stoekade
surrounding the prison pen.

WATER.

The people ofNorfolk, yesterday, by a
majority ofthree hundred and two votes,
elected that they would have supply of
fresh water for the city. The question
submitted was, whether the corporation
should fatten $500, 900 of the bonds at
seven per cent, and the vote stood-for
water 451 against water l49. This de-
cided expression Of preference means
something. 1t 10 encouraging. Some
time back, we entered upon this question
with something of the feeling of man
walking alone like the traveller, who,
when he first goes out, feels awhile be-
nighted--then looks round in fear and
doubt, and sees the lamps are lighted.
We are requited. The people have re-
sponded well and:we congratulate our
fellow.citizens upon theinspiring result.
But there is good deal of work yet to
be performed, and The Committee must
remain in session until it is completed.

VIRGINIA ELECTION.

The Virginia State election--ior the
choice ofeight members ofCongress, the
choice of members of the State Senate
and House of Delegates, and to pass
upon the question of empowering the
next General Assembly to annul the
State test Uut., ---.-,sn. e>~--- public Of
ives against persons who had taken
part In the. late war-was held yester-
day. Here in Norfolk we had local
issue in addition to the foregoing, name
ly: Whether we should have a supply OF
fresh water from Lake Drummond,
which was decided III the Affirmative
451 to l49. There can be no doubt that
the proposition to repeal the test oath
was carried by an overwhelming ma
iority, as the interest of the bulk of the
citizens pointe d in that direction but
what further transpired in the State at
large, we cannot tell, for the cable hence
to Old Point refused to work last night,
and we are again isolated. The contest
in Norfolk and Portsmouth was spirit
ed, but the best Of feeling signalized the
days work in both cities. We give be-
low the tables of our reporters "

votes ahead in Petersburg, He leads,
too, in Norfolk and in Portsmouth. Still
the district covers much ground, and
