A few days ago | visited the Nation

rounded by a neat white fence, and near
the entrance is a liberty pole, from which
floats the stars anu stripes. Around
the pole is circular road from which
branches seven Others; these arc crossed
hy circular roals-diyiding the grounds
into triangular beds. and in these beds
are ten thousand graves, so arranged
that the head board5 all face the liberty
pole. at the foot of the central road is
plain and unprctcndins monument,
upon which is the inscription:

these graves contained the remains Of
Federal dead and as stood alone-yct

and some horses quietly feeding among
the graves-I thought Of how many
homes were desolatr how many knew
not where their dead were laid, and how
many brave youths had met an untimeIy

SENTENCE IN TWO OF THE 'FRAUD
CASES,

BY reference to the court proceedings, it
will be seen that Judge Emmons passed
sentence yesterday on two of the parties
charged with completely in the Thomas q.
Boyd frauds, namely, Mr.. j. H. Kelso and
A. A. Boyd, the latter being a younger
brother of the leader and moving spirit of
the conspiracy. On his submitting his
cause the Government made the sentence
light, being fine of $1,000, on the ground
that it was generally conceded that he be-
inc a younger brother of the strong mind
ed leader, he was perfectly under his con-
troll and that he was thus rather forced into
the conspiracy.
J. II. KelsO is a magistrate of Monroe
county, and his case is something similar
to that of P. L. Butler, an account of whose
trial we have given before. Kelso's sem
tence was fine of $1,000 and imprison-
ment for three months in the penitentiaIy.
There were several indictments against
both of the above named parties, but the
government has entered a mol pros. in the
remaining indictments against them. The
causes against the other parties charged
with conspiring in these frauds, who have
not yet had trial, have been continued

head of barrel. Commissary Squills
don't know whether the 10Th Ohio
drank more whisky or slung more tack
and pork at ali events, the boys
worked well, and about 2 o'clock in the
morning, as the fires were dying out on
the late camp of the Union army.
Squills turned his head again towards
| the Yazoo.
| There isn't such time ON record as
that made by Squills, and his train on
that I'd of January morning, for they
reached the river about 4 O'Clock, and
then the festivities commenced.
Bang A gun from the Confederates
How are you Johnny"
Bangl bangl Sharp and quick.
Hurry up, boys; they know we're
scooting." -
WhirT- zz--crack-bangl
"Get yourstuff ON board, Squills, % cried
Lewis B. Parsons, riding up. Cant
stop for that"
''Pitch it ON any how, boys, hurrah"
Bangl bang! bang!
1t was getting lively somewhere, with
a vengeance. If the Confederates
could reach the bluffs below Johnson's,
| landing with their guns before we could
| get there, then it would be more lively
still, for every shot would be plunger
and one would be enough to settle the
hash of the best transport in the feet.
"All aboard, everybody"
A wild scene of hurry and confusion.
Every boat for itself and the devil take
the hindmost.
Bang! bang! bang!
LET 90 those lines there"
Bow first; stern first; anyhow first;
anyhow to get out of that place. Crash!
Now then, where are you coming to?'
Crash, again. And still the guns
blazed away, and the boats swung round
and battered into one another Finally
they got their heads straight down
stream, and off they went kiting to the
Mississippi, with nothing broken to
speak of after all All kinder scared,
but jolly with it all.
Stores saved, general - said Squills
to Steele, reporting on the Continental
Charlie" said Steele to Scammon,
make Squills a cocktail"
Stores saved, general said Squills
to Blair. a.r
Lucky for you, Squills," said Blair;
''take a cigar"
Boys" said Squills to Mcguire and
Thompkins, I'm going to my little bed;
don't let anybody come near me for two
days"
my bleeding country, how 1 suffer
for you, thought Squills, as he rolled
in between the blankets to dream of
mountains of bareback and islands of
mess-pork, swimming in oceans of
bayou.
And that is how Squills and the 9TH
er boys in blue cleared out from Chick
asaw.
