Bellows Falls times. [volume] (Bellows Falls, Vt.) 1856-1965, 1871-02-24

Recent investigations show large
number of outrages in some paris of the
South, especially in North Carolina, COM
mitted during the past six months, and
bill has been introduced in Congress
to meet such cases. The old rebel ele-
ment is constant in its efforts to murder
and annoy Union men, by system of
cowardly assassination, that can only be
compared to that of barbarians and saw
ages, and it is to be regretted that there
are those in the North who still look on
with Indifference or openly oppose
any measure intended to restrain the fur
ther commission Of such crimes.

The Tennessee arrived safely at San

six days at SANTANA Bay, for want of
coaling facilities at that place. She was
obliged to bring in her coal in her own
launches from the shore. All of the
party on board were in excellent health,
and their first impressions of the Island
are reported favorable, though they had
not at the time of their sending in their
first reports, come in contact with those
opposed to annexation. The announce

HALPNE's CoNDTIoN.-Thomas A.
Halpine, the wounded express messenger
was able to leave the hospital Friday
10th inst, and go to his home. Heis now
considered wholly out of danger. The
Hartford Courant publishes someextracts
from a letter written by Halpine to a
friend in that city, which are interesting.
He SAYS:
Il have thought of you, and all of my
old army companions, since have been
wounded. / have not suffered much
since the first three days, until week
ago last Sunday, when I was taken with
a severe pain in my ear. caused by the
gathering inside. l suffered more that
night than had any time before, and
Monday morning l was SO weak that I
could hardly raise my hand. Thursday
sat up in bed little. and today l am
dressed and at the table writing and if I
have no more drawbacks shall get out
this week. l am keeping house here, and
shall 60 home just as soon as the doctor
will let me. My wife has been with me
all the time, and I have had the best of
medical attendance and nursing. Ihave
had better care here than l could have
had at home"
He says the express company pays all
his expenses, and that his time goes on.
He concludes as follows:
"This has been pretty tight squeeze
for me. | did not expect to live fifteen
minutes after l had given the alarm.
All | asked for was to see my wife and
child, and l could have let 90 nv hold
hold pretty easy. ! had no hopes until
Sunday, when told my wife that if /
weathered that night thought l might
get we'll. Nothing but the providential
