BEAUREGARD' TELEGRAM.-T h e
following is said to be the private tel
egram which has been captured among
Gen. Beauregard's papers, and is to be
placed in possession of the Government :
"CHARLEsToN, S. c., Oct. 10, 1862.
Hon. WIN. p, MILES, Richmond, Va.
Has the bill for the execution Of aboIi,
ton prisoners after January next been
passed. Do it, and England will be stir
red into action. 1t is high time to pro-
claim the black flag after that period
Let the execution be with the garrote.
G. L. BEAUREGARD."
Beauregard, from several of his acts,
has sunk low enough in the estimation
of all honorable men, but it is difficult to
believe that he could pen such diabolical
dispatch as this,

TRIAL OF PAYNE.-The Free Pres,
of June Goth, says: 700
The trial of Hesekiah Payne has been
in progress before Judge Pierpont. at s.

offered, goes fully into the various facts
OF the Raid and the shooting of Morrison

acknowledged that he was one of the
raiders, said "You ought to have heard
the fellows beg when we locked them in
the vault" and gave him (Smith) $500

ty Bank money, supposing him to be n
brother rebel. The evidence was cor.
roborated by r. b. Nay, another detec-
tive. William N. Smith, Frances Smith,
Mrs. Francis Davenport, Mrs. L. How
ard, and Mr.. Edward Sampson, testified
positively to seeing Payne among the
raiders at the time of the raid, and to
seeing him take hat from one Nettle-
ton. On the other hand, several witness
SEES for the defence, swear that Payne
was in Montreal on the day of the raid.
The case will probably be given to the
Jury to~night or tomorrow.
The verdict was not guilty.

THE CONFIDENCE GAME.-Says the
New York World:
"On Saturday, as Nc. Nelson Bacon,
a resident of Burlington, w., was leaving
Lovejoy's Hotel, where he was staying,
he was met by a man who introduced
himself as Arson b. Howard. They be-
came quite friendly and went down town
together. After walking a short distance
Howard was met by friend, who told
that his goods had been shipped as he
had ordered them. Howard replied
that he was just on his way to the store
to pay for them, when his friend remark
ed that he would not be able to pay for
them as the store was closed, owing to a
death in the family, but that It Howard
would pay him it would be all right
Howard thereupon asked Bacon to lend
him 800, which the latter did at once
He was requested to wait there until
Howard and his friend went to the bank
and be would return at once. Bacon
then became suspicious Of the men, and
followed. Finding themselves followed,
they ran off, pursued by Bacon, who sue
ceeded in arresting Howard, and hand
ed him over to an officer. His accom-
plice escaped with the money. Judge
Bowling committed him for examination.

SINGULAR DEATH.-Mr. Gilbert Peel
of Fairhaven died singular death or
Monday of last week. He had driver
his cows to pasture, taking hoe to dig
out spring for them to drink. AS be
did not return that day nor the following
night, the inhabitants commenced a
search on Tuesday morning, and about
two o'clock they found his lifeless body
under thcket of bushes with his head
resting upon stone, and bis hoe by bis
side, about mile from his own farm
From some unknown cause he had stray
ed away, and in the intense heat, had
probably lain down TO rest, when he died
apparently without struggle. He had
been unwell for some days previously.

ISLAND PoND ITEMs.--The people
at Island Pond have had large expert
ence in fires recently. On Saturday eve.
ming, June Oath, an engine house Of the
Grand Trunk Railroad, and Yoodshed
adjacent, the latter containing large
quantity Of wood, were totally destroyed
The engine house cost about $4,000
and was not at all insured. 1t was only
by dilligent effort that other railroad
buildings were saved. The next Mon
day covered bridge eighty feet long or
more, about mile north of the village,
took fire from a passing engine and was
consumed. On Tuesday afternoon, about
three o'clock, another large woodshed,
containing twelve hundred cords of wood,
took fire, and was destroyed with all the
contents, A high wind prevailed at the
time, and the fire ragged so furiously that
within twenty four hours tha very last
stick was reduced TO ashes. There is a
good opening for an insurance agent at
the Pond.
1t is no rare thing for men to get "shot
in the neck" with certain dangerous IL
guilds, but Mr.. Andrew Plaisted got shot
in the neck a few weeks ago with some
thing solid. A boy was fooliug with a
pistol, either not knowing it be loaded or
not caring, when the pistol was discharg-
ed, and the ball entered just behind Mr..
Plaisted's windpipe, passed nearly thro'
his neck, and was cut out of the back of
his neck by the surgeon.

Losses OF MEN IN THE REBELLION.
The estimates of the War Department
compute the number of deaths in the
Union armies since the commencement
of the war, including the prisoners, at
$4,000, and the number of Southern
soldiers, killed and dying of disease and
wounds, during the war, at 100000
Our greatest losses during one campaign
occurred at Gettysburg, when 23,267
Union soldiers were killed, wounded and
taken prisoners. Hooker's campaign in
1868 in the Wilnerness ranks next to
Gettysburg as far as regards Union losses,
they having amounted to 10000 though
generally reported at only 10000
Burnside lost $4,000 men in the battle of
Fredericksburg, Mcclellan 1I,426 at
Antietam, Porter 5000 at Gaines's Mills,
Rosecrans 1905 at Marfreesboro', and
1851 at Chickamauga, and Sherman
about 5000 in the two days battles
around Atlanta. t.F
The official reports of General Grants
losses from the time he crossed the Rapi-
dan until receiving the surrender of Lee,
compute them at 10000. In the various
engagements fought by Gen. Grant 10
the West he lost 1888 men at Pitts
burg Landing, 9,7S5 in the severe con-
tests around Yicksburg, and in the at
tack on Missionary Ridge about 1000.
These losses are not so great as those
which have occurred in ancient or mod
ern wars in the old world.

BANK SUsPENsIoN.-The financial
article of the Commercial Bulletin says

The latter cashier, who has always had
the reputation of being generous, whole
souled sort of a man, has beer guilty of

the creditors of the concern considerable
anxiety, although Of course its affairs are
said to be in very promising condition"
