A Brave Man.

The Baltimore American of the 18th has the
following:
Maj Benjamin Weller Hoxie, whose death
at Harrisonburg. Va, was announced Yester-
day, made an honorable record by his service
during the war. When only eighteen he en-
listed as a private in Sckles' brigade, and lost
part of his hand at williamsburg AT that
time he was second lieutenant, and, in the alb.
sence of other officers, was in command of his
campany. He returned to the field with his
arm still in sling, and at Bristoe Station was
commanding the regiment. During this ac-
ton he was wounded in the hip, exposing an
artery he was put in an ambulance, but was
so tar gone that the men in charge supposed
that he was dead, and dumped him out, TO
make room for some one else for whose life
there might be a chance. He was subsequent
ly found half dead at the roadside by soldier
from Patterson and this man carried him to
Washington, where he lay in the hospital for
three months. For two months of that time
men were detailed to remain at his side day
and night watching the pulsations of the ex-
posed artery, the slightest disturbance threat
ening instant death. He rejoined the army
with the rank of captain, but his wound dis
abled him from active duty, and he was as
signed to staff duty as ordinance officer, with
the rank of brevet major. In 1864he returned
home with the seeds of consumption so per-
ceptlble that 1t was only question when he
would die. While at the front in Virginia he
made the acquaintance of John Minor Bolts
the famous Unionist, and after the war he re-
visited MIR. Bolts, and subsequently, married
one OF his daughters, who survives him, with
two sons, aged nine and eleven years. He
served two years as assistant United States
District-Attorney Of Virginia. Some weeks
since he removed to Hnrrisonburg. in the

One Thousand Missing.
fRv Cahle TO the Herald.


VIENNA, December 9-Midnight-Th ey-
tent of the calamity has hitherto been much
understated One thousand one hundred and
thirty persons are announced at the Police
Bureau as missing, and, assuming that many
of these will turn mp, it is feared that the total
loss will not be much less than a thousands
persons. 1t is now probable that there were
six hundred in the fourth gallery All the
persons in the third row of the parquet perish
ed. Some person who entered the theatre a
few minutes after the fire was discovered re-
marked at the time that comparatively few es-
capped. The theatre holds 1900. Every place
was occupied except the parquet and boxes.
Consequently the total loss may be found to
be nearly one thousand. Three hundred and
sixty tickets were issued for the fourth gallery
seats for last nights performance. OF these
about fifty have been found They had made
their escape from the inside only to find death
by salfocation in the passage way, which had
no exit. The rest were up to three o'clock
this afternoon seen lying within the fatal gal
lery vast barrcades Of human bodies. About
2 O'clock the fourth gallery fell in, and the
firemen are carrying out Jumps of charred
bodies, without form and far beyond the
possibility of'recognition. Who these victims
are will not be known until their relations
have announced themas missing.

The Vienna Horror.

BURNING OF THEATRE, 900 PERSONS ARE
THOUGHT TO HAVE persisted.
The Ring theatre, Vienna, was burned ON
Thursday night last A few seconds, saws a
cable to the Herald, after the commencement OF
the fire, Manager Jauner appeared at one of
the windows of the first story leading to the
Ring. BE shouted to the crowd, but what he
meant only few could understand He asked
the crowd to keep quiet, not to press on.
only the curtain is burning; keep quiet;
don't press on q human voice cried, making
itself heard above the screaming Of thousands
heard for few minutes, then it was suffocated
by the laundering noises produced by the fire
and the human crowd The fire had gained
rapid Roadway inside and had reached the gas
fixtures
