time Of the capture he says he held a commits

Captain John Parker, as acting first lieuten-

Chesapeake with seventeen officers and men.
For them he bought tickets. When the at.

AN UNPUBLISHED LETTER FROM BURNS
Among the papers in Aldouri Hoyse, on the
banks OF Loeb Ness, are copies Of several of
Burns's poems, in the handwriting ofthe poet
and the following inedited letter addressed to
the grandfather of Col. Fraser, Tyler, we'll
known as one of the most accomplished of the
Edinburg iterati at the close of the last oen-
tury, and as Scottish Judge under the title of
Lord Woodhouselee, Burns was preparing a
new edition ef bis works-most likely that
which appeared after his death in 1871. The
verbal alteration he proposes was never made,
his friends in Edinburg probably thinking that
it would be no Improvement.
"SIR: A poor caitiff, driving as am at this
moment with an excise-quill, at the rate Of
Devil take the hindmost' is i'll qualified to
round the period of gratitude or swell the path
os of sensibility. Gratitude, like some other
amiahle qualities Of the mind, is nowadays so
abused by impostors that I have sometimes
wished that the project of that sly dog Momus,
l think it is, had gone into effect-pIapting a
window in the breast of man. In that case,
when poor fellow comes, as do at this mo-
ment before his benefactOr, tongue tied with
the senae Of these very obligations, he would
have nothing to do but place himself in front
Of his friend, and lay bare the workings of his
bosom. L again trouble you with another, and
my last parcel of manuscript. am not inter-
ested in any Of these; blot them at your pleas-
are. am indebted to you tor taking the
tronble Of correcting the press-work. One in
stance, indeed, may be rather unlucky; if the
lines to Sir John Whiteford are printed they
ought to end
And tread the shadow path to that dark world
unknown"
'Shadowy' instead of 'dreary,' as believe it
stands at present. wish this could be notic-
ed in the errata. This comes of writing, as I
generally do, from the memory
have the honor to be, sir, your deeply in
debted humble servant, RoBERT BURNS.

ANTIETAM NATIONAL CEMETERY.-Thomas
A. Boult, Esq, Secretary and Treasurer of the
Antietam Cemetery Association, gives the fol-
lowing information in relation thereto A buri-
al corps has been sent to the cemetery by the
government, with train of wagons &C. The
men of this corps disinter the bodies from the
many trenches and graves around the neigh-
borhood of the battlefield, place them in coiins.
and deliver them to DIR. Biggs, Superintendent
OF the Cemetery. DIR. Biggs has trenches ex-
cavated in the divisions of the cemetery set
apart for each State, and as the bodies are re-
ceived, they are inferred in their respective
trenches. The collins are numbered, and the
number set down in a book opposite the
name of the soldier, if known.
The collins are placed exactly eight inches
apart in the trenches, and it can thus be asc, r
tanned by measurement, when the trenches are
filled up, exactly where the body bearing each
name and number is Inferred There are
trenches excavated for sixteen States, and as
the remains are brought up they are taken to
the trench to which they belong Thus bodies
can be identified to q certainty. Nothing now
remains of most of the bodies but the bones
In some cases the flesh has not decayed, but
appears to have dried. After all the bodies
around the battlefield are appropriately inter-
red, the burial corps will proceed to gather and
transport to the cemetery those lying at differ
ent points in the county, Keedysvilie, Boons-
boro', Funkstown, Hagerstown and other places
together with those who fell at South Noun
