The body of Private Whistler of the
Greedy expedition which had been buried
at Delphi, Indiana, was exhumed in the
presence Of his family, relatives and repre-
sentaives of the press, and an examination
made. Ten minutes were required to
loosen the bolts of the casket. The casket
was found filled with cotton waste. Hold
ing the body in place with hemp cord a
heavy blanket was next to the body, there
was no further clothing. The head was COW

we're in a good state of preservation. The
red hair and beard easily identified him to
his friends. All the flesh had been cut from
the arms and legs. The limbs were perfectly
bare of muscle. The right foot, which had
been frozen, was not touched BY the knife,
and the left hand was cut only to the wrist.
The breast had not been touched, but every
particle of flesh was stripped from the back.
The physicians found nothing in the stOm-

An Andersonville Hero.

Hartford Post.
During the Summer of 1864 not less
than $4,000 prisoners were incarcerated
at AndersOnvile Of that number more
than IA 600 were buried.in the trenches
outside the stOckade. Through the
months Of July and August the death
rate averaged one hundred a day. An
exchange Of prisoners had been rendered
impracticable through the refusal of the
Confederate government to consider any
cartel which should include the cOlored
soldiers in its prisons. At AndersonVille
there were perhaps fifty colored soldiers
imprisoned. They were located in a
group by themselves near the stOckade
gate opening toward Capt Writ head
quarters. Most Of them had fought in
the Florida sWamps, and had conducted
themselves with bravery and credit. No
one inside the prison had reason to
doubt either the courage or patriotism of
these colOred soldiers. FOrtitude and pa
thence could not fail of inspiring admira-
ton and sympathy. But there came an
hour when the instinct of self-preserva-
ton mOmentarily won the mastery over
the common sense Of justice and honor,
which prevailed even at AndersOnVille
among the Union soldiers. An effort
WIS inaugurated for the presentation of
a petition, to be signed by the prisoners,
to the government at Washington, ask
arranged without reference to the sx-
change of cOlOred men. The petition
was receiving a large number of sigma
lures. When it reached the 10th Con-
necticut, from the ranks of which, num-
bering four hundred men and odd, fully
two hundred persisted in the five months
imprisonment there, a fair-faced, light
haired youth of 20 years addressed his
associates, half of them not older than
himself, in opposition to the plan. 1t
was one Of the most eloquent and daring
addresses ever uttered in behalf Of the
defenseless and weak. Richard H Lee,
Of CRANKY, the young orator, was the or
derly sergeant Of his company, and as
manly as he was brave and fearless. He
defended the right Of the colored men
in prison TO be recognized and treated as
Union soldiers, and entitled to every
consideration which might be extended
to the white troops. His speech had a
magnetic effect, carrying hundreds o
men back to the right track. To the
honor of Connecticut, no man Of the
10th regiment ever attached his name to
the petition. Instead, so strong was the
sentiment aroused against it, that it died
IN the hands of its originatOrs.

He Says He VIII Stand upon the Democrat

GENTLEMEN Il have the honor to
acknowledge the receipt of your commu-
nicatiOn, notifying me of my nomina-
ton by the Democratic Convention at
Chicago, as candidate for the Office of
Vice President of the United States.
May I repeat what I said on another
occasion, that it is a nomination which I
had neither expected nor desired, and
yet 1 recognize and appreciate the high
honor by the Convention.
The choice Of such a body, pronounced
with such unusual unanimity, and
accompanied with so generous an ex-
preston of esteem and confidence, ought
to outweigh all merely personal desires
and preferences of my own. 1t is with
this feeling, and trust, also, from deep
sense Of public duty, that I now accept
the nomination, and shall abide the
judgment of my cOuntrymen. I have
examined with care the declaration of
principles adopted by the Convention, a
copy Of which you submitted to me, and
in their sum and substance I heartily en-
dOrse the same.
I am, gentlemen, your Obedient ser
want, T. A. HENDRICKS.

Gross Carelessness.


During the war with the South there
was certain company of raw recruits
marching rapidly to the front. Their
way to an outpost led along a Virginia
road which stretched over rolling cOun-
try that was dotted here and there with
clumps of trees. At a turning they saw
ahead Of them pine grove which grew
abO1t a hundred yards to the left Of
their path, but they were unaware that
in its midst q squad of rebel cavalry was
lying in ambush. AS the company got
abreast Of the timber the guerillas
opened a scattering IRE on their flank.
1t was the first time that the recruits
had heard bullets singing over their
heads, and moreover, they had no idea
that the enemy was within five miles Of
them, so that they were uncertain how
to regard this demonstration. The squad
halted, undetermined what to do; and
one big German after putting his hands
to his mouth trumpet fashion, shouted
toward the trees: "StOb shoodine,' and
then turned excitedly 70 the Oidcer in
in command, exclaiming: ~ hat de
