''The most unpromising officer that left Camp Dutton was First Lieutenant Augus- tus H. Fem. He was but eighteen years old, of freckled face and awkward gait. and wa regarded with snrly contempt, by win. dy and consequential brother officers Ey. cry private soldier, too, had his fling at him. It was considered very impudent iu him to be an officer, at all; but he had re. crulted his forty men, and there he was with commission in his pocket from Gnv. ernor Buckingham. There was no getting away from him, and he was assigned to Co. K, which was kind of a regimental Bota- ny Bay. (That company had been formed oy transfer of what the Captains of the oth- CT nlne Companies considered their refuse; but It was, nevertheless, one of the best, most faithful, trueot Companies that ever went into tne service.
 ''But three years of fighting blew away a good deal of showy incompetentcy, and re- vealed true merit wherever it existed. Lieutenant Fenn grew in the estimation of hls fellow officers and of all who knew him until there was no tongue that dared to wae against him. He proved himself one of the best drill masters and disciplinarians in the regiment, and one of the most com. potent officers In every position. Before going to the front he was made Captain o1 Company c. On the 22d of June he lee his Company into the skirmish at Peters

 been brought to him, commenced his du- ties at once. When tue regiment left the Sixth Corps at TenalIytown in July he was relieved. h September he was appointed Judge Advocate of the Division Court Mar "hai which tried twenty-five cases. At Ce- dar Creek he lost his right arm. The Surg. at Ann apolls propose to muster him out and discharge him for disability, y,--but he protested, and wrote to General Macken- zle' urging his interference. The conse- quence was that he was retained. and in
 less than seoen oCeeks from the time he had
 an arm taken off at the shoulder, he repor
 ted for full duty at the front. and was at
 once detailed as A. A. A. General of inc

 We are 10th to believe that the people of the South have relapsed into utter barbar- ism, but the accounts which reach us from time to time of the speeches and doings of some ot them are, to say the least, not in dlcatlve of Q high state of civilization. We quote few sentences from letter written by a gentleman living in Edgecombe coun- a1Y1h; friend:
 "Cases are frequently reported to me of physicians refusing to attend the sick, be- cause theIr relatives were Republicans, or expressed their intention to vote for Grant anu COlfaX. One man came into my office and told me that his boy died for want of medical ald. No physician in the bart of the country where he lived would attend the boy, because he was d radical; one store keeper kept him from eight clock in the morning until two o'clock in the afternoon and would not sell him anything, because he persisrently said he would vote for Grant One man asked me to send for a northern physician, because the faculty of this county would not attend to his wife. and she was lying at the point of death.
 The common excuse made for any atroc- lty reported from the South is that the members are the perpetrators of the Glow down class, men who have never had any education, religious or other, nor any hu- influences. But here are physi- clans who are presumed to be educated men and gentlemen, committing ar from which the betteFaasl.~ ~cS CO.. shrink with horror; an acle Proprietors, against human nature.
