an interview with Col. Baugh, Superin-
tendent of the Chattanooga aud Atlanta
railroad, for the purpose of obtaining
transportation at reduced rates, if posi-
BILE, for the purpose specified but he was
about to resign his position as Superinten-
dent, and refused to make any arrange
ments. The Superintendent of the Ma
con and Southwestern railroad was not at
home, and consequently could effect no
arrangement with that road; and in view
OF these facts | made no further attempts
with the officers Of other roads
In conclusion [ would say that in
conference had with Mr.. H. B. Welton.
Superintendent of the National Cemetery
at Andersonville, elected the following
facts, viz: That the remains of the sol
dlers there buried, consisting of the bones
and hair alone, could he enclosed in a
small box made of pine boards, not over
two feet in length, and of sufficient
depth to contain the skull, and then ship
ped TO almost any polnt in the Northern
States, by express, tor sum not exceed
ing twenty-five dollars; including the cost
of boxing and interment, and that if he
were retained liz his position as Superin-
teGdent he would cneerfulIy undertake to
forward remaips if they could be distin-
guished A description of the hair, teeth
and size OF the person inferred, together
with the name, company and regiment to
which he belonged, and, if possible, the
date of his death and number of his grave,
would give him every facility for recogni-
zing the remains that the person going
after him would possess, and would be at
tended with comparatively trifiug ex-
pense; and this mode consider the only
feasible one to be pursued on the part of
the friends and relatives of the deceased.

Pennsylvania soldiers buried at this and
other points south of Nashville, and for
ward the same to the Governor at as early

Remarkable Escapes OF Enll-

Two brothers were on one occasion
walking together, when violent storm
with thunder and lightning came on.
eG--efse would the name of the great re-
former, Martin Luther, have been un-
known to mankind.
John Wesley, when child, was only
just preserved from death by fire. The
moment after he was rescued, the roof of
the house he had been in fell in. OF
Philip Henry, similar instance is re-
corded.
The holy st. Augustine, having to
preach at distant town, took with him a
guide, VINO by some unacCountabe means
mistook the road, ard fell into by-path.
He afterwards discovered that his enc
mics, having heard of his movements, had
planted themselves in the proper road with
the design of numbering him.
Doddridge, when born, was so weakly
an infant he was believed to be dead. A
nurse standing by fauced she saw some
signs of vitality. Thus the feeble spark
of life was saved from extinguishment, and
an eminent author and consistent Chris
tian was preserved to the world.
When Oliver Cromwell was an infant,
a monkey snatched him from his cradle,
leaped with him through garrct window,
and ran along the leads of the house The
utmost alarm was excited among the in
mates, and various were the devices used
to rescue the child from the guardianship
Of his newly found protector. All were
unavailing; his would be rescuers had lost

The following reports Of Coils. Gregg
and Chamberlu, agents Oh behalf of
Pennsylvania to inquire into the condi-
! ton of the cemeteries in the South con-
tanning the remains of Union soldiers who
fell victims to rebel neglect and cruelty
during the war, will possess peculiar in
terest to not few of our readers -
TRANSPORTATION AND TELEGRAR1I DEPT,
HARRISBURG, January l6, 1865.
SIR That the great anxiety to know
the condition Of the graves and grayeyards
of those who fell victims to crnel neglect
and starvation during the late war, in the
prison places of the South, might be sat
isfed with personal observation and in
spection-and that advisory answers as to
the feasibility of the removal of bodies
from these places, might be returned to
unfortunate friends and kinsmen, for as
si5tauce Of the State under the Volunteer
| Relief Associatious-I proceeded by your
! direction to Washington on tie 18th ult,
en- route to the principal points where
! these burying grounds are located, in the
Military Department of the Atlantic, ac-
cessible by railroad.
To the end that time and expense might
be saved In the accomplishment of this
object, it was thought advisable that Col
Chamberlin should proceed on a similar
mission from Nashville to Andersonville,
Ga, and intermediate points-the railroad
communication being more perfect and the
distance to be travelled less than beyond
the most Southern point In the East L
should be required to visit-I therefore
communicated to Col. Chamberlin by let
ter the instruction under which | acted,
and desired him to proceed at his earliest
convenience in fulflment of his part of
the object.
An informal order from the headquar-
ters of the armies of the United States
secured me the courteous attention and
assistance of all local military officers in
furtherance Of my mission.
On the outskirts Of Richmond, found
the grounds allotted TO the burial of Union
soldiers in Oakwood aud Hollywood Gem
eteries, and the enclosure containing the
graves of those who languished and died
under the rigors Of prison treatment on
Belle Isle, surrounded by plain, substan-
tial fences The burials in hollywood
Cemetery are those deceased since the
rebel evacuation of the city. The graves
here are of sufficient depth, and we'll
marked with plainly lettered head-boards.
At Oakwood and on Belle Isle moulder
the bodies of those who died during the
dark days when the Confederate flag
faunted treason, and when brave and pa
triotic men, imprisoned in unwholesome
prison houses and on this bleak isle, sick
ened and died.
Here the furrowed ground alone marks
the great mortality that depleted our ar
mics, there being but few marks by which
to identify or distinguish particular inter-
ments. A catalogue of the names, com
panies and regiments of the heroes buried

The Little Rock Gazette of the 3Oth ult.
states that terrible tornado swept over the
vicinity Of St. Johns, Berkloy, recently, dur.
ing the visit of several gentlemen to their
plantations on the Cooper river, sweeping
away both trees and houses. In one Of tbese
buildings N. A. Milliken and DR.. CHRISTOPHER
Fitzsimmons had taken refuge from the storm
OF both wind and rain. The storm increasing
in violence, and the building showing signs Of
falling, they attempted to retreat, Mr. Mill
ken passing out at one door. and DR..
Fitzsimmons attempting to escape BY another.
The latter, however, being lame, in his hurry
was thrown down, and the building at that
moment crumbling in, he was struck on the
head BY crossbeam and instantly killed.
Another building, into which several neeroes
had entered and sought shelter, was ALSO
thrown down, and one negro woman killed
and several negro men wounded, The

TIE FUNERAL OF Jos. W. SrIMPsoS.
Of the largest and most impressive funerals
that has ever been attended in this city, oc.
Cured yesterday afternoon. The orders Of
Sir Knights Templar, Masons and Odd Fell
lows, together with an immense concourse Of
citizens, assembled at the appointed hour to
perform the last sad rites which the living can
render to the dead. After few solemn and
Impressive remarks By Rev. Mr.. Waring At
che house, the body was removed to q con-
senient place outside where the burial cere-
mony of ths Sir Knights was partially per
formed over it after which it was placed in
che hearse, preceded by the several orders.
and followed by relations and citizens, form
ing the largest procession ever witnessed ct
. funeral within our recollection in this city
JOSEPH W. SIMPSON was one of Keokuk' 8
most esteemed and exemplary citizens; one
whose moral worth and social attainments
were acknowledged by all. None knew him
but to love,-none named him but 10 praise
In this connection would it not be we'll to ask
the young men of our city to study the ex
ample presented to them in the life Of Mr.
SIMPSON? He lived quiet, sober and chris
tian life, associated himself with the church
and the benevolent orders Of our city, and in
every pursuit in which be was engaged, and
in every cause which be espoused, gave his
most ardent attention and support. All were
received by him with smile. His friendship
was pure, because it came from true heart,
which never failed to beat in sympathy
for other woes. The funeral cortege yes.
terday was an evidence of the esteem and
love in which the virtues OF the deceased
were regarded By the people of this city. Tn,
very solemn and imposing ceremonies per
formed. at the house and after arriving at tn.
grave, BY the Masons and Odd Fellows, wer,
Indeed calculated to impress upon that larg,
assembly the lesson that sin the midst of lif
We are In death" May oil who attended b,
prepared, as was Mr.. Simpson, for tina
change which must inevitably come upol
them sooner or later. Young men, contem
plate the funerals Of yesterday, and may thei
solemn teachings sink deep into your hearts
