EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: In answer
to w. +. Doyle about the battle of Ante
tam, would say that there was no fighting
in front or just at the right of the Bunker
Church after 2 p. n. of Sept. II, 1862, ex-
cept what was done by the artillery. The
32d y. 7. came upon the field through the
thin piece Of woods, and TO the right of the
bunker Church, about 1 p. m. There were
no troops to the right or left to be seen
there was in the lines that We could
not account for bat between the woods and
the turnpike there were more dead and
wounded meE han l ever saw on any field
Of battle. One rebel ne-of-battle was plain
to be seen by the dead.
Soon after we passed through the woods
q spent cannon-ball struck the ground in
front of Co. j. PASSED through the company,
and wounded two men slightly. The regi-
ment was halted, and Co. / sent to form a
skirmish-line along the brow of the little
hill through which the Bloody Cat ran.
When we reached there and found the
line well upon the knoll we saw an officer
lying upon the top of the knoll. John H.
Hackett, of Co. ], crawled % him On his
hands and knees, and found he was Mai.
Sedgwick, of Gen. Sedgwick's staff. He was
mortally wounded, but told Hackett he
would like to be carried into our lines.
Hackett succeeded in bringing him back
the few rods that lay between him and the
rest of The skirmish-Iine, where he was put
on blanket and taken to the rear, only to
die the next day.
The artillery did all the fighting after we
reached the church. / saw the two officers
with white flag in hand walk out between
the lines, shake hands and stick the stats in
the ground near the turnpike. Between our
regiment and the skirmisl-line were many
dead and wounded rebels; between the Skin
mish-line and the turnpike were many OF
our men, and every little while that after
noon we would see one of our men crawl
slowly on the ground toward our line, all at
once jump up and run as though he was

time until he thought it safe to run again.

line he found badly wounded Johnny had

a NOTED HAWAIIAN.

Gen. VIM. II. Dimond, who was re-
ported by the latest adrices from the
United States as being sick unto death
was a Hawaiian born man whose ca
reer has been creditable in the high
est degree to the two countries which
knew him as boy and man. In him
the islands produced man of culture,
intelligence, energy and ability. With
the mental equipment received at Ho-
nolulu he was able to make for him
self name and place in much
broader field. Here was born a char
acter which developed strength and
beauty and which was ever a worthy
model. As the man of family he was
loved and esteemed. AS the merchant
he was successful. AS the politician
he was honest in effort for the COM
mon people. As the social factor he
was the true friend and as citizen a
man of sterling qualities. In the pass
ing away of General Dimond, Hawaii
loses firm and useful friend and
the State of California a man esteemed
by all his fellow citizens.

Rush for Naturalization Caused by a
House Resolution.


WASHINGTON, June The pas
sage of the resolution introduced by
Representative Linton of Michigan,
calling for information as to the num-
Der and offices under the Government
held by aliens, has caused an unnat-
ural rush for naturalization papers in
the Supreme Court of the District of
Columbia, before which tribunal all
applicants in the District must APP
pear.
OF the eighty applications for natur-
alization filed since April Goth, twenty
were Government employees, among
them being George w. Watson of Can
ada, who is at present chief clerk of
the navy yard, and John A. Sutherland
of Canada, assistant in the Office of
the Supervising Architect. 1t has
been developed that number of good
positions are thus held by aliens. A
thorough investigation is to be made.
