-ETNA, Idaho, September 9Th, 1880.
Our usual quiet was considerably
disturbed this morning by tho an
nouncement that a young lady dress
maker had committed suicide by taking
an overdose of oil of tansy, supposedly
for the purpose of causing an abortion,
as she went to the bad sometime ago.
Previous to her death she must have
suffered untold agony, as blood guShed
from b eyes, nose and mouth. A doc
tor was sent for to Challis, distance
about twelve miles, but inside OF
twenty minutes after taking the drug
he unfortunate girl expired. An IN
quest will be held to-day.
Court is or soon will be in session in
Challis, Judge Hays presiding. from

details of which no doubt
your readers are acquainted. This and
one days racing, consisting OF throe

or so.

filthy as the contents of the jars which
were thrown. There are not two opinions
as to what should be done. Every
effort should be made to discover the
authors and perpetrators of the outrage,
and bring them to the punishment they
so richly deserve The crime is a
reflection upon the entire community,
and no reputable member of it will fail
to do what he can to bring exposure
and justice to the guilty. The police
will be failing in their duty and obliga-
ton to the public if they neglect to en-
ploy their best skill and endeavor to bring
the scoundrels to punishment. We also
think the City Council should offer
reward for the capture of the villains,
and citizens, we are confident, will add
to the sum. Men base enough to com
NIT the crime, would hardly be above
selling each other, hence what police
shrewdness cannot ferret out, money
may be able to purchase.
1t is like the Tribune to charge the
outrage against the city police and the
Mormons. 1t seems impossible for our
morning contemporary to be fair or de-
cent in anything. If it were honest and
frank it would say that it delights over
the affair, because it gives the organ an
opportunity of doing and saying more
mean things against the Saints, and it
hopes to utilize the occasion in its own
behalf. 1t is something to the Tribune's
hand, and it fairly chuckIes as it wal
lows in the congenial filth. In this con-
nection. why would it not be a good
thing to hold an investigation and call
upon the Tribune to tell what it knows
about the police being guilty of the out
rage2 On former occasion the Tribune
charged an attempted assassination
against the Mormons, but when its
editors and reporters were officially
called upon for the grounds Of their
base allegation, they either declined or
confessed that they knew nothing in
other words that they wickedly and
maliciously lied in order to injure the
Mormons. One of the editors admitted
privately that he knew there was
absolutely nothing in the charge, and
that the drunken fellow lit was Jerome
B. Stillson, of the New York
Herald was the perpetrator of tie
outrage" upon his own suspender
buckle, but he never had the manhood
to say so in his paper, the attempted
assassination being used in the Tribune
against the Mormons, until the friends
of the organ grew sick and tired OF the
stale lie bel.-g repeated. Let the Tribune
people be summoned to tell upon what
they base their infamous accusation
and if it be found that there is only
malice in their charge, the public will
know by what title to brand them.

The Charge Mt Vicksburg.

To THE EDITOR: The 2Ist and 22d Iowa
have had their say in regard to the charge on
the works at Vicksburg, May %, 1863 Now
we will bring in our claim; also, a word for the
brave 77th Ill. Being color-guard and pres
ent on the occasion, / have not forgot the words
of our noble Colonel as we neared the works,
nor the answer of the color bearer
These are the words from the Colonel:
Dave, can you put your colors on those
works?" "We will do it or die trying" was
the reply, and our flag waved there for hours
Not until about sundown did we fall back with
them, and then not more than two rods. There
we remained till long in the night, and | do
not think there was any other regiment left
behind when we were drawn off.
The colors of the nth Ill. were planted
within 10 feet of ourseon the fort, but did not
come off with the regiment; the rebels got
them, although it was not through any coward
ice of the regiment. Better men never faced the
storm of battle. OF the 21st and 22d Iowa. they
were there / know, and did noble fighting but,
boys, I.andrums Brigade of A. j. Smiths Divis-
ion, Thirteenth Corps wasn't in the habit of
falling back and leaving the brunt of battle for
somebody else. We went first and came back
last, and claim we did not need assistance at
that point, but support to the right and left,
and had we got that, A. J. Smiths Division
would have gone into Vicksburg that day.

Job Rush, Co G, 4th Iowa, Writ, Ia, contests
the claim of s. L. Coulter, Capt, Co. B. 111th

Corps rccaptured De Grasses battery. and says
that the 4th, 9th, 25th, Both and 31st Iowa took
prominent part i'll that undertaking.
ID. N Patterson, Co. /, 1st Mo. Cav, Larned,

the first to cross the Arkansas River, the 1st
Mo. Cav and the Sd Iowa Cav. were the first
troops to enter the city of Little Rock.

flag on the State House at Columbia, S. G..
c. w. Buser. Co. K, 96th ILL.,. Dawson, Neb.,
writes an amusing account of a nutting ex-
petition he went on ust after the battle of Chick
amauga. When he and his two comrades had
gathered a large quantity of nuts, they were at
a loss how to carry them to camp. The problem
was solved by them all divesting themselves of
their unmentionables tying knots in the bot
tom of the legs, and filling them with the tooth
some fruit.
Martin Phillips Chippewa Bay, N. Y, writes
that the statement of George Sperry in regard
to the Waynesboro fight is correct as published

he was an eyewitness to the shooting of the
comrade at Belle Isle referred to in recent

Who Stole Dave Lawson's CUNT

To THE EDITOR: l notice in your issue of
the 2Sth letter from VIM. Bristow, of Bald
win, Kan, and late of Co. K, Oath KY, in which
he inquiries who stole his meat few days
before the battle of Perryville and owns up to
stealing Dave LawsOn's gun at the siege of
Knoxville. Now. Dave was member of my
company (G), and was good fighter, but would
never, under any circumstances, clean up his
gun. His plan was to fall in promptly on all
parades or reviews with wel-cleaned and
beautiful gun, while the one previously used
by him would be lying around, to be picked
up and taken into ranks (for inspection, per-
haps by some unfortunate who at the moment
could find no other. As Comrade Bristow says
the one he foraged y from Dave was "new
and beautiful Enfield" we'll go six to anyone's
half dozen that the said Enfield was "a new
conner" among Dawes traps. l would not ex-
change the pleasure of having learned the
whereabouts of COmrade Bristow, who piloted
me through the worst part of so miles Of rebel
country when on my way to enlist in Septem-
ber, 1861 for the price of several TRIBUNEs
As to Billy's fried meat, it must have been one
of the 103d Ohio boys, as think they marched

Dam Church, near Cassville, Va, May Is, 1853,
and taken to Franklin. When got to Frank

in the prison, wounded through the ankle, and
as he was shot on or about May 15 and had no
one to 10 anything for him until first saw him,
he was in a deplorable condition. Comrades
you know how the maggots used to get to the

sun for two or three days. / can tell you

wound. / carried water from the spring five and
six times day land God bless that rebel Cor

wound. In nine days got him nearly all right,
then we were parted. / was sent to Libby and
he went to the hospital. About the 1st of June
there came lot of prisoners from Jackson,
Miss, mostly sick and wounded; some with
their arms Off, some had their legs amputated,-
in fact, wounded in all Imaginable ways. / can
never forget that morning; some of the stumps
had partly healed, and by being transported in
those awful cattle-cars their wounds COM
menced to bleed again, and when they came in
our room the first thing they asked for was
water. l can tell you, boys, that was q fearful
day in Libby. A few of us rolled up our sleeves
and dressed their wounds although none of us
had any experience further than what we
learned in the army. Now, if w. III. Goodhue or
any Of those prisoners l mentioned are alive
they will do favor by sending their address
