4 correspondent Of tho New York
Tribune, who lately visited the battle
field Of Spottsylvania, says:
Ghastliest of all ghastly sights upon
this bloody field are the skeletons Of
dead men broadcast over the land-the
nations seed, planted willingly for a
Glorious harvest of Union and peace
but mover covered from sight. Within
a circle of one hundred and fifty yards,
where an unsuccessful assault was made
upon the encmy's works, 1 counted tltty
skulls, polished by time, rejecting grim
IL the rays of the sun, as they fell care.
lessly upon the last memorial of man.
That these so remained was doubtless
due to the fact that both armies moved
away Immediately after fighting, and
have never reoccupied the spot But
what must be the thought Of the farmers
who lef. these dreadful souvenirs to lie
on their grounds. saw one plowing on
the same field where lay skeleton, and
he coolly told me that when be camc to
it he supposed be would bury it. IT'S q
pity for human nature that such people
live. r~.
Our Government have recently, sent q
party to bury these exposed skeie'
tons.

Among other things, he tells how bs.
came to be called Hangman Foote, which
may DO new to some Of our readers. We
quote:
The epithet" Hangmhn Foote," which.
you have thought proper to apply to me,
I confess is not ut all new. received
the oppcllation fifteen years ago. be-
cause of ve,y foolish and tnconsiderate
speech which made in the United States
Senate, in res ponso to q very courteous
and eloquent one delivered by Dir. Hale.
of New Hampshire, in denuneiation Of
the system of negro slavery in the South
I confess that I was so unparlianentasy
as to say on that occasion that hc de-:
served to be hanged for using such Ian:
guagc as he then uttered. Indeed, l
NAV, in reply, have employed language
of a directly mcnacing character. = 70.
Let me declare to you now, though,i1
all irankness, that Twas heartily asha med
of having used such language immedi.
ately after had done 30, and that l
seized an carly opportunity Of making
formal atoncment for my fault, in open
Senate, and in the hearing Of the coun'
try, which formal atonement was 70.
pcatcd on more than one occasion. Still,
| must confess that I can scarcely blame
any one for applying to mo an epithes
which, it is evident, l did so much to
Justify; and if you aud other controllers
of the public press still think that tho
offensc which I committed on the occs.
sion referred to is really Of an inexpii.
bic nature, I will have, With as good
grace as practicable, to submit to wear
this terrible shirt Of Nessus, for the re-
mainder of myclife. es.sss..a ..-~
