COL. PERCY wHNDHAsI.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The recent sad
fate of Col. Wyndham, better known as Sin
Percy WyndhaIa, recalls an episode in his
strange career that to many perhaps has re-
NAMED a mystery. Ii will be remembered
that he served for a while IN the Union army
as colonel of a New Jersey cavalry regiment,
and acting brigadier of q cavalry brigade, TO
which position he had been advanced for his
consummate knowledge of cavalry man
uenvres at the earnest solicitation of officers
in high rank. In 1868 Wyndham was
with the army i'll Virginia, in command of
about $500 men. He was held in high es-
TEEN, both for his bravery and his military
skill; was general favorite with his superb
Ors, and expected soon to be advanced 10 the
rank of brigadier general. Suddenly, to the
surprise of everybody, he was ordered to
Washington, and there granted an indefinite
leave of absence by Secretary Stanton. No
reasons were given for this. He remained
in Washington for some days, suffering from
the most terrible chagrin, which he endeav-
ored to alleviate by plunging into dissipa-
ton. At last he determined to visit his COM
mand, and was received cordially by his
brother oi1cers but after he had been in
camp two days, an order came from the sec
f6tafN OF war 10 tne commanding general,
that WyndhRm should at once leave the
Union lines. If he did not DO so, he was TO
be put under close arrest and sent to Wash
ington Immediately. Wyndham resigned on
his return to Washington.
Some time before his death by drowning
on the lakes few years ago, Mr.. Stanton's
private secretary informed an employee of
the war department, under promise of SOL
emn secrecy during his life time, of the
cause of Wyndham's removal. Mr.. Stanton
had private information, given in such
manner as to insure the coucealment of the
names of the inforners, that Wyndham had
entered into a negotiation with the confed-
crate government to surrender his command
for the sum of 100000. Mr.. Stanton could
not, getting his information as he did, place
Col. Wyndham under arrest, and try him
for this highest crime of which a soldier can
be guilty, so the only road open was to re-
move him from command. The private sec
rotary said he was in doubt as to whether OF
not Judge Advocate General Holt was aware
Of the matter, but believed Mr.. Stanton act
ed under his advice. The gentleman to
whom this story was told it in government
employ and in a position of HIGH trust.
