Gettysburg.
 From the Troy Timesl
 I was at Gettysburg was an artillerist, and so it happened that when that heroic charge was made by Longstreet's division and those splendid lines of gallant souther ners came sweeping grandIy across that field up into the very teeth of our guns. the time came when we must cease firing, for our own men were so closely engaged with the con- federates that they would receive as much danger from our fire as the enemy would During this interval had, what soldier in battle rarely has. leasure to watch On little knoll just to our right stood Webb's brigade of the old Second corps. In their front the brave Kemper was hurling down his brigade of vigilants upon them.

I pointed to Maj Fitzhugh, com the artillery brigade, to whom he rushed and besought him for Gods sake to send section of guns to the support of his men; he could not hold them against shat fierce onslaught ten minutes longer.

CHILD DEvoURED BY HoGs.-One of the
many bands Of Gypsies which have passed
through here during the past few weeks,
buried child on the road to this city, which
had been killed by one of the bears accom-
panying the tribe. a few days ago several
farmers passing the spot where the child was
buried heard a continued and violent grunt-
ing, indicating that hogs, with which the
neighborhood is infested, had gathered there
in force. Investigation showed that the
hogs had rooted up the dead child and near
~ devoured it. The utmost endeavors Of
the men failed 10 cause the greedy animals
to dcsist from their horrible work, and the
party had to stand by and see the hogs
one with a leg in its mouth and others with
a section of the trunk, etc, scattering
through the thicket.
