while there last weeks JGurndL says:
JEFF Craig whose home is said 10 be
near BruBOt, was arrested Saturday
aud locked up for disturbing religious
worship. II develops that he is crazy
aud since iSsing locked up he raves and
tears bis clothes from him. The other
morning he got out Of his cell and into
the Jail corridor and gave Marshal Lu
cy and L. +. O'Dell quite tustIe be
fore they got him back into his cell.
When locked up he had silver watch
which was f0uDd the other day Ia his
cell broken TO pieces. He says that
when he is released he is going 20 burn
the Christian church AS it leaks. any
how. Efforts will be made 10 get the |
county court TO take charge of him. as
his people refused 10 care for him"
Since his incarceration here Craig |
has become exceedingly wild and un-
manageable. He insists on tearing |
every article of clothing from his body |
and raves necessarily, giving Sheriff |
O'Seal and his assistants no little |
trouble and annoyance. The poor fell |
low is certainly ia a deplorable condi- |
ton.

TALON commanded by Colonel Is. Gratz
Brown, assembled to receive their dis
charge from the ninety days service.
They made sorry figures as they stood
around in clothing which had been
worn to rags,-the same ia which they
had volunteered. The hazards of war
had told upon them in many ways, and
they impatiently waited TO be mustered
out. Colonel GRAFT, having received
his commission as general. remained
at Ironton for about ten days. when he
was ordered to Jefferson City to take
of and re orgonize the troops
stationed through the central districts
