TIE highly disinterested testimony
of a confederate lieutenant before the
Fitz John Porter inquiry yesterday is
exceedingly refreshing. He was only a
lieutenant it is true, but he displays a
wonderful homemade knowledge of the
field and the plans of the commanding
officers. He was particular to contra
dict the testimony of the orderly who
delivered Gen. Pope's order to Gen.
Porter. The orderly said that he re-
ceived the order at 4:30 O'Clock p. M,
and delivered it at 500 p. m, thirty
minutes Later. This lieutenant went
over the same ground as did the orderly,
following the identical trail. of course,
and it took him exactly ninety-six min
utes. Over another route he made the
distance in eighty-six minutes. This
proves that the orderly perjured him.
self, and in accordance with the eter-
nal fitness of things the testimony of
a confederate lieutenant is to be taken
in preference to the affidavit of union
orderly. You see the lieutenant ranks

GEN. BUTLER is working like a
beaver, and at this distance his election
does not seem SO doubtful. While he
has an independent nomination for
governor of Massachusetts, he is striv-
ing to obtain the democratic nomina-
tion also. With what success is appa-
rent from the fact that in the demo-
cratic primary elections he secured the
majority of the, Boston delegates. OF
course this does not assure his victory
In the coming convention. The demo-
Gratis have about despaired of defeating
Governor Rice single handed, and may
possibly use Butler as a club In beating
the popular Rice. That accomplished
they will endeavor to swallow the green
back movement entire.

m. the witness testified that he had

six minutes.
Col. Walter Davis, of California, said
the night Of the 9th was the darkest
he ever knew and he didn't sleep, be-
cause Porter was anxious that his
troops should move early in the morn
ing. That night he met Gen. Porter,
who told him to notify Gen. Sykes to
move his division at once. Gen. Sykes
sent word back that it was impossible
to move, because of the intense dark
ness in the woods. The witness said
there was only artillery firing on the
goth and he knew Of no order that day
for Porter's corps to retreat, nor did he
know of any retreat. He described the
fight on the 30th, and Porter's activity.
The contending forces were SO close
that witness saw confederate soldier
seize a union man and haul him into
the confederate ranks.
Major Earle, of Colorado, testified
that on the goth Gen. Mcdowell ap-
preached Porter in a bluff manner and
exclaimed: ''Porter, you are too far
out, move your troops back into those
woods. This is no place to fight"
This was brought out to throw the
responsibility of Porter not attacking
on that day upon Gen. Mcdowell. Ad-
journed till tomorrow.

The bodies of two other children, who had died some time previous ly, and had been buried ln on old cemetery, were disinterred. and the six little collins, carried to the graveyard at the same time, afforded 8 sad and unusual spectacle. An immense concourse of sympathizing friends and neighbors gathered about the family mansion to attest their sorrow for the grlef- stricken parents.
