A Disrraceful and Shameful Act.

We learned, by accident, Of circumstance
which, if true as we heard it, ought to bring
the blush to the cheeks of all mankind to think
that one of Gods creatures known as man,
should be the author of such al outrage
When the remains of the Confederate soldiers
were being exhumed from the battlefield of
Gettysburg, a man, whose father owned the
field whcreon the soldiers were buried, actually
took gold plate, to which were attached set
of false teeth, from the head of one of the sol
ders, and now refuses to give it up.
Oh, man to what depths Of degradation can
YOU descend: 10 rob the dead, wcrr NJ act
unworthy the ancient barbariaI!a, and at which
the Indian savages, all untutored is they were,
shrank with horror. .ind then, to think, that
civilized member of this enlightened country
would be guilty Of snch an act, is enough to
cause the hardest hearts among us to turn with
oathing from such foul, taithless wretch.
Since writing the above, we have obtained
the following particulars of another outrageous
act by the same pcrfidious wretch who stole
the teeth.
When the agent of the Savannah Memorial
Association visited the residence Of David
Blocker (the name of the Christian citizen?l,
near Gettysburg, Pa, for the purpose Of obtain
ing the remains of the Confederate dead, sup
posed to be buried there, he found that two
bodies only were buried on said farm. They
were those of Lieutenant-C Colonel Vim, of the
4th Georgia Regiment, and a Mr.. Law, of the
same organization. ;.
Blocker positively refused to allow the bodies
to be removed until he was paid for allowing
the remains to rest on the ground rs long Us
they had, whercupon the agent left. He re-
turned however, subsequently and an through through
on Blocker to allow the bodies to be cxhumed;
and when they were removed, he (Bockerl
stole the teeth.
Was there ever, in the annals of the world,
known or heard of such q case of complete bar
baric and unprinciplcd grccdincss? We arc
perfectly aware that human nature is every
day tending more and more to .dsprayity, but
Let this man be passed around, so that his
name may become familiar to every resident of
the land, and when this vile scum of humanity;
comes along, let him be, as he should sc9ied
at by all honest mon, and Stunned as an object
entirely unworthy of being countenmccd by
decent society.-Stra'nah M''s

A High Compliment from Radical Source

4 High Compliment from Kadlcai S0arce.
The Cincinnati Commercials Nashville cor
respondent, (H v. Redfeld,) in late letter
pays the TRAITORS" and "rebels" of the South
the following compliments:
'"The Southern people loathe a man who
uses public Office to enrich himself. What
ever may he their faults, they are honest
They do not worship the almighty dollar to the
extent of bartering away their honor for 1t.
The old Southern tirc-cating Democrats we
arc taught were wicked men, and wicked they
were, about some things, but they did not Use
their offices to fill their pockets. They did not
form rings to make money, or establish gilt
enterprises. This old-Elshioncd honesty, this
adherence of anything that looks like prosti-
tuting public office to private gain is as alb
was. and probably more, for they have been
called upon since the war to have considerable
experience with that sort of thing and to know
it is rot to love it, especially when it is done
at their expense. For the past six years the
Southern States have been converted into an
arena of robbery. presenting spectacle, OF
fraud and corruption perhaps uncNamPled Ill
the history of the world; yet Southern-born
men have had little to do with it. icur true
Southcrncr, if he has sense enough TO get an
office las too much honor to steal. In all my
experience as correspondent of the C61nmcrcim
in the different Southern States, have found
the worst thieves, the most insatlatc robbers,
to bc Northern men. There has been more
stolen in South Carolina, or in Louisiana,
since the war, than i'll I'LL the Southern States
put together, from the revolution to 1860.
And the strangcst thing about this whole
business is that the greater the rogue the more
intensely loyal" he is, and for that. or the
other reason, the higher in favor at Washing
ton. If Hodge had been stationed down South
and ha, gotten up two or three ku klnX scar's
just ON the eve of some election where the
Radicals were sore pressed and thereby ena-
blrd them TO carry the day. he would have
been canonized instead Of caged-though he
had stolen four millions instead of four hun
drcl thousand dollars of the peoples money.
And yet these chaps are rolling their red eyes
over the corruption of The T:mmany democrat
-ry. 1t is very much as if the llcathrn Chincc
had expressed himself shocked at the state OF
Bill Nycs sleeve.
