the first place you want to carry as
little metal as possible about your per-
son. When the storm approaches shell
ter yourself inside the nearest brick or
stone building. IF none be near you
should stand still or lie down on your
place regardless of the rain, which is
really a protection. Avoid the shelter
of trees and doorways. also out-houses,
such as barns and stables, whether of
stone or wood, especially of the latter.
| consider that open, low, dry, stony
ground is safer than high, wet and
grassy ground, and that leeward sites
are safer than windward ones. On
seeking shelter laborers should leave
their tools behind, as the metal is ant
to attract the electric fluid. The Chin
neys OF house should be kept clean.
Keep clear of fire-places, metals, es-
peclally pipes; of walls, especially
outer ones; of wires, cisterns, window
bars, mirrors, pianos, gilt frames, ETC.,
etc. All doors and windows should be
closed. A building is greatly guarded
by paving close around the walls and
by dry and well-drained foundations.
! would lay especial stress upon the
danger of carrying metal about the
person, or of having it near one, as
many persons are killed by their care

Here, evidently, was another case where the
confidence of the Government had been abused.
1t was mistake to locate the cemetery any
where north of Yieksburg. Good locations and
plenty of them might have been found south
or down the Wanenton road. No matter what
the motive for purchasing here was, it de-
serves the severest censure. Tt had not one
single good point to recommend it. 1t lies on
the side of hill, so that the rains run down
like torrents, and the rising river very soon
covers up the river boundary line and part of
the cemetery. 1t is true they kept the inter
ments above water, on the terraces, bat anybody
who has tried to keep up q terrace knows that
to do so requires eternal vigilance. The worst
thing they could have done was to try to keep
up q terrace made of such PUPPY stuff as this
dirt becomes when it rains. / met here an

MILL SPRINGS Cemetery.
by oonmode p a Rad5ord, sasbpillc, Tenn.l

This cemetery is located in Pulaski county.
The battle is sometimes called the battle of
Fishing Creek (which creek is only mile or
two distant), and sometimes Mill Springs (some
miles south of the battlefield), and sometimes
the battle of Logan's Gross Roads, which is the
nearest correct, as the fight began in the field
near Logans house, and was mostly fought
around there. The crossroads is merely a
wagon track in the woods. Logan lives near
the corner. The whole country is in wild,
primitive condition Few people live there
William Fl. Logan was always what is termed
a staunch Union man. The cemetery is on his
farm. He gave the land to the Government
and feels proud of having had 1t in his power
to do so. He told Colonel Whitman to "take
all the land he wanted" The cemetery is his
jewel, which he watches over with tender
care 1t is an isolated place. and there is
scarcely a redeeming feature about it, The
cemetery is its brightest spot / have lost or

The Question Of Pension Attorneys, Fees.

To the Editor NATIONAL TRIBUNE:
Your editorials in issue of 9Th inst, entitled
Another Pension Raid" and Pension Attor-
neys and Pension Fees" are certainly we'll
timed, and deserve the attention of the Hon
Commissioner of Pensions and the Hon. Secre-
tary OF the Interior, as well also of every
member of our National Congress. You say:
% To reach the root of the evil the Hon Com
missioner must go farther and deeper and
strike at the very occasion and motive and
inducement to fraud-the existing law regulat-
ing pension fees" This is the keynote, and
had not Congress interfered with the original
law respecting attorneys fees in pension cases,
there would never have been any occasion for
the present howl of the press throughout our
entire land, denonncing every man who ever
undertook to aid the poor soldier in the prose-
cution Of his pension claim; nor would there
have been any occasion for the tremendous
expenditure Of the Treasury funds, made neces-
sary by the contemplated action Of the depart
ment respecting these matters. The passage
OF the bill reducing the fee and requiring that
the collection be made from the applicant drove
every honest attorney from the field with,
may be, very few exceptions, and admitted
unworthy incompetent persons who have
! flooded the country with their flaming red,
white and blue circulars; in this way bleeding
the applicant, whether entitled or not under
the law TO his pension. And why are these
appeals responded to by the applicants2 Simply
because no honest and respectable attorneys in
cities elsewhere, may be, than in Washington
can afford to prosecute their cases at the re-
duced fee, and their only resort is to appeal to
the authors of these circulars. In the South,
| and particularly in Tennessee, pension cases
are the more difficult Of prosecution because of
the exceeding ignorance of the colored soldiers
and their families and the poor white soldiers,
who enlisted $4,000 strong within the borders
/ Of our State. The same amount Of work that
| is required in the ordinary pension case, in
this State would not be done by an attorney
before our courts for less fee than $50. /
claim that every member Of Congress who was
! instrumental in the reduction of the fee is
directly responsible for the snfferings, and in
many instances the death, of hundreds of poor,
penniless widows and orphans of soldiers in
our State, who, for the want of competent
attorney to prosecute their claims, occasioned
alone by the reduction of the fee, must be de-
prived of a right to a competency granted them
| by grateful government. Respectfully,
