C. V's, having just recovered from Ia a spell of sickness, borrowed a pistol 1! and shot himself. le had shot twice before the Captain's attention was di rected towards him. The Captain com- we prehcuding the truth of the situation, itl rushed towards K. L's, to prevent, if tt possible, his design. K. L's sooi:.g 'i. the Captain running towards him put lot his pistol to his throat, fired and fell. a F The Captain asked him why be had thi shot himself, but received no reply. w' The wound was dressed by a Surgeon It of the 3,1 Louisiana Battalion. K. pc L's was put in an ambulance and car. as rinod to the hospital at Richmond. On l tho way in reply to the question of ( the driver, as to why Ie had shot him- '; self, said "he know, but no one else he would know." This was all he over tn spoke from the timo he shot himself t till his death. There were two men Pi holonging to our company, who pro- , fossed to know the reason whj K. L's til had killed himself. .t L. McL-n, h< who was present with the company and J. B's who was in the hospital. lit On the 26th, our company was in p battle of iMlechanieksville, and J. L. in MoL-n, was the only member of the T battery that was killed. About the sante (late, 26th of June, J. B's who sn was sick in the hospital grew worse jig and at night began talking to a si strange soldier, who occupied a cot th near him, in an unknown language. I' The stranger soldier seemed to un- nr der:tand him, and replied in appa. rontly the sanmo language. None of ha the other occupants of the ward was b able to understand them. After tl some tine the conversation becoming jlt annoying to the other patients of the a ward, the ward-master took J. B's and in hid him from his companion. In the be night about 12 o'clock, the patients 3 were awakened by their conversation. 1 They had found each other and began ht again to'converso in the sione language hi and were allowed to continue it till hi about nine o'clock, when J. B's died. F< About 2 o'clock his unknown compan ion also died. With the death of J. r B's finished all hopes of discovering si' tho reason wvhy K. L's shot himself. fe I enquired if ,J. B's or his parentshad dII e.ver spoken any other language be.. et mide the English, and tho reply was h< was, "that they had not.'' A plamsi- of blo explanation of the above incident di would be thankfully received.

As you were foremost in calling the ention of the A,merian public to the rth Closet System-the use of sifted earth for the deodorization and dis. actim of hunan feoces-and thus be ne the pioneer of a reform that prom not only unspeakable relief from the vest annoyance of our lives, but the atest waste of the fertility of the th, it is just that to you should be amunicated an outgrowth of this sye i that offers, if possible, a still greater ietit to suff'ering hur.anity. )ne of the -experimental commodes ,t out by the Earth Closet Company a placed at the disposal of Dr. Addi. i lewson, ol the Pennsylvania Hos. ., in Philadolphia.

At the time of its introduction titare ,s lying m the ward a patient suifer from a very severe compound !racy o of the lower leg. The wound was an unhealthy condition, and'its exnda na, amounting to a pint in twenty ir hours, were so offensive as to cause ickening and even dangerous st.ench, it the excellent ventillation of tlhc rd and the use of the usual disinfect te were.hardly able even to mitigate. occurred to Dr. flewson to test the wer of dry earth to absorb thia odor, it had that of excrement. The ect was magical. Not only was the ensiveness entirely overcome, bitt the eet on the character of the wound elf was such as no previous treament d been able to compass. The suppur. tion was within a few days so rcdu.ed at the daily dres3ing of a single half nt of earth was not even saturated ; e edges of the flesh wound lost their flamed character ; the intenso pain of e sore was entirely relieved ; and a flathy gratiulation has ensued. Such an indication of a newly-found sling agent was not disregarded. On Monday last, being in Philadol lia, I was invited to attend the morn g dressing of the earth-treated wounds. lis is what I saw First. Two patients, t.uffering from rious varicose ulcers, after prolonged flering, and with little relief from the nil treatment, have censed to be ofen. ro to their ward mates ; they find air sores growing daily smaller ; all in and inflamination have left them ; d they feel the certainty of an early re. Second. A. railroad brakeman, whose nd was a year and a half ago, crushed tween the coupling heads of two cari, d who has never been free from pain, d seldom from intense pain ; whose nd from the wrist to the knuckles was festering mass of carious bones and flamed flesh, and whose system had on so reduced that he could not have rvived the amputation, which alone n entirely relieve him, is now happy freedom from pain. His flesh-wound s taken on a healthy character, and s strength is fast rotuning. le even pes to save his hand, but, the long ntinued decay of the bone makes this possible. Third. Anot4hor brakeman, suffering >mi a precisely similar injuiry, ini no re. eet less serious, but receivedl within a w days, was immediately treated with y earth. Its constant application has tirely prevented inflammation, and a althy healing of the flesh and knitting the bone will soon return him to his uties with two useful hands. Fourth. A farm laborer on Friday at had t,hree of his fingers nearlY cut f and his hand fearfally torn'by a itsenpower hay-cutter.

The >wer burned his face and arms, and eriously) one of his knees, which was as struck by a fragment of the iron, at completely shattered the knee-pan. is burns and the fracture wvere imme ately dressed with dry earth, and the yedomi from pain and tho absence of flanmmation have been as marked in is case- as in the others, WVithout this easing the kneo-joint must inevitably ve become involved, and the leg must tve been lost. Now the wound is 'idlently healing, and although it is too rly to speak positively, there is -every anon to hope that, the only result of e injury will be a stiff knee. Sixth. Within a few days a woman as brought to the hospital with liar ck anid a large part of her body very verely and d ang -rously burned, That o could escape long wveeks of agony is beyond hope.

Itespectfutlly, Giconoa E. WAuIR, ,R. Netw York, February 24, 1869. Newb,rry Immigrant Soolety. The quick and good results of co-ope. rativo effort find admirable results re. eently accomplished by the Newberry Immigration society. ThIs society was orgaized but a f"w months ago. The members agree to provide land.) or em ployment for those" who ene: to New. berry, and help theni c.tme from New York. Arrangements are ma.. he which they are :ransported t much hel.,vt the full rates of fare. They I ave beenu fortunate-in seciting the service"s of Mr. Briggeman, an active anid intelligent German as an ngunt. 'he membe-ra of the Society have bus obtained this season nearly two hundred excellent. German laborer?. Most. o! them work land on shares. Some have prurchased land. They, wttnh 1 he methodical hah its of their race and the experience they have had in thorough ci.ivat.ion, will raise sueh crops as aire rare'lv seen They will set exaiples of inminstry and economy which will have ex'ellent effect on our people. The emtterprising gentlemen in Newberry who have. by co-operation, brought, in tlhiese immi grants have done what will prove profit.. able to themselves and beneficial to the whole comnunit v'. We believe that immigrant socities'onght to be es tablished in all parts of the Stato. The State itself will do something, but pri vate enterprise is swifter and often far more effectivo than public action. If private organizations are formed they may, and we shall be glad. to have them, supplement the E m>rt of the State ann reap all the advant.ages of it. Doul tIless, for several count ies about Newberry. Mr. Briggeman, the agent of the Newberry Society might also act as aont. He now understands the whole matter and can work with the efrsiency of experience and with the added advantage of a knowledge of the language, ideas and wants of German iinmigratnts. In all parts of the State our people crn ofThr superior inducetnents. in all parts they can well al lord to help these sturdy laborers from New York, and in all parts of the State, by enterprise and co-operation like that displaved by our felljw citizons in Newherry', can' meet with equal success. I-ad each county done what Newberry has we should have 200 immigrants now in each 32 counties, or an addition to our %%otkina population of G400 exeelhent laborers That number once here they, by sending for friends, would of themselves speedily double their number and double it agnin. t;iving to our prodnet'ive State a thriv. in)g population. IHow practical all this is. We need only act together. By co-operation we can h:ing in immigrants we can build cotton factories, we can do anythig, indeed everything we wish.

Having refused 'to obey their summons, they threatened to break into the bonso, lbnt finally went off wvith,out carrying their lhrenls into efTect.

The New York World of Monday save: On Saturday afternoon after Piesi dent Johnson's pardon of the Dupuys had been received at the afllee of the United States iMarshal, District.-Attor ney Couriney telegraphed to Comnmis. sioner Rollins at Washington to ascer tain if all was correct. The following reply was received soon after: \VASIrINGTON, March 6, 1869. S'anuel G. Courtney.

At a late hour, the following dlia patch was received at the Marshal'; office. "VASIiNO-ON, Marclh 6, 1869.

F. B. WAstnunetr :, See'y ofState. The parilons were immediately re turned to Washington in compliance with the above order, District Attorney Courtney then, in order to prevent the possibility of a bo gus pardon being received at Albany and Sing Sing, where the prisoners are confined, telegraphed to those places, directing the officers in charge to ignore any paper purporting to be such par. tion. The Tribune, in noticing the matter, says: The pardon was in the marshal's hands about three-quarters of an hour. It will be seen that it is conditional on the payment of the fines imposed upon the two .risoners. These fines were never paid, attd, of course, the pardons were not at any timo in force before they were recalled. The marshall can not, therefore, be charged by the friends of the disappointed prisoners with dere liction of duty, as he had no authority to set the captives free until the last. farthing of the fines were paid. A California Wonder. THE DEAD SEA OF MONO. The AuslAn (Nev.) Reclle, of No vember 28, has the following . There are many things in the Great Basin, or along its rim, which excite the interest of travelers. A corres pondent asks us to tell him "whether Mono Lake is actually the 'dead en,' it is reported to be ? I am told that its bitter waters are fatal to all living things. If you can, will you please say something about that singular body of water ? We gather from the "Report on the Mineral Resources of the States and Territories West of the Rocky Mountains," that Mono Lake lies ten miles Southwest of the divid ing line between California and Nevada, and is about fourteen miles wide and nine long Tt has never been sounded, hut a trial said to have been made with a line 300 feet long failed to reach the lottomn. By chemical analysis a gallon of water, weighing eight pounds, was found to contain 1,200 grains of solid matter, consisting principally of chloride of sodium, carbonate of soda, sulphate of soda, borax and silica. These substances render the water so acrid and nauseating that it is unfit for drinkinig or oven bathing. Loath er immersed in it is soon destroyed b1y its corrosive propertiee,and no anima, not even a fish or a frog, can exist in the water for more than a short time. 'The only thing able to live wvithin or upon the waters of this lake is a spe cies of fly, which, springing from the larvae bred in its bcsom, after an ephemeral life, dies, and, collecting on the surfae, is drifted to the shore, whore, the remains collect in vast quantities, and are fed upon by the ducks or gathered by the indians, with whom they are a staple article of food. Nestling under the eastern water shed of the Sierra, Miono Lake receives several considerable tributa ries ; and, although destitute of any outlet, such is the aridity of the at mosphere, that it is always kept at nearly uniform level by the process of evaporation. So dense and sluggish is the water rendered through super saturation with various salts and oth er foreign matters, that only the strong winds raise a ripple on its sur face. As the Siera in tis neighborhood reaches nearly its greatest altitude, the scenery abtout Mono Lake is va ried and majestic, some parts of it be ing at the same time marked by at most eheerless and desolate aspect. The bitter and faial waters of this lake render it literally a dlead sea, and all its surroundings..-wild, gloomy and foreboding-aere suggestive of sterility and death. The decompos ing section of the water is shown by its effect upon the bodies of a eomipa ny of Indians, twenty or thirty in number, who, while seeking to escape fromi their white pursuers, took rof ugein the lake, where they were shot by their enemies, who left thorn In the water. In the course of a few weeks not a vestige of their bodies wras to be seen, even the bdnes having beeg, do comiposod by. this powerful solvent. Mineral curiosities abound in the neighborhood of Mono. Lake, among whioh are zn berless deposits In the heof 4iny ptrees. MAM.hatihoug alwys theln. Little Things in Farming. The whole success of a farm hinges upon timely attention to little things. Thi:+ mainly makes the dif0erence be. I ween thrift and poverty. ''he philoso phy of success is expressed in the old rdage, "Ior want of a nail a shoe was lost; for want of a shoe a horse was lost; for want of a horse a man was lost ;' It is a little thing to keep accounts of the pecuniary transactions upon the farm. A half hour SAturday evening would enable farmers to know just how they stai tl with thle world. Yet we suspect half the men who cultivate the t s.il ei 'er made an entry in a book ; and for want of hiis iho aecoa,ts run up th"arll at the sl,re, and m any articles of liuxury are purclasecd for wfhich they are nale to pay at the end of the yen r. I D)ebt s nceinmi t, the farm Is moltigag ed, and finally lost for the want of a little paper and ik. It is a lt tI tiint to pltt up a tool in ItH place when not in ise. Yet ninnv have no tool.honse or plaece of shelter for any implement or vehicle. Things are lefI whero they were last ieed-the plow in the field, i the cart in the yard, the chains in the i sta e, the harliess in the wnod houise, the axe at the woodpile, and the rakes at the corn-crib. Manly do not even house the exptnsivo iml.lements they have bonght , and reapers and ihreshers are treated like old ploughs and harrows. The parts wade of iron and stel grow rusty and te wood decays. A machine that is good for thirty years with proper care, is used up in 1 firo by abuse, It is a very little thing to turn a nut that is loose, yet for the want of that, tightening the nut is lost, the bolt comes out, and the loaded wag. on breaks down on its way to .varket, and a whole (lay for a ma' and team is lost. It is a little thing to keep a horse properly groomed, yet for want of clean fetlocks,; the skin cracks, and the horse is lame, and the owner loses the use of I him for months or weeks. Ventilation t is a small affair, yet for the want of it the health of stock in stables suffer so verely, anddlsease sets in. It is a small affair to provide good seed at the be ginning of the year, but the whole sue cess of the season depends upon it. It is an easy thing to deal fairly wi:h your neighbors, and make a name that is bet ter than "precious ointment." Many cheat on small occasions, do not get what they si-ll, and get a reput rtion for meainness that stands in the way of their success. SAVING MANURE. Every man of common sense must admit that the rules to be adopt- for a rational system of saving manure, must. be based on the knowledge of this pro cess; and we may lay down the follow ing riles in relation to it 1st. The ground selected for the dis position of stable manure should be even, in order to permit the equal dis tribution of the manure on it, and thas secure the heap uniformity in thickness. Only in ihis case the process of putre. faction will proceed regularly in every part of the heap, and.its body will prove obenhomogeneous character.' 2d. The mannge should he protected against the direct rays of the sun, in order to pr vent the too rapid advance of the put reTactive process, and a conse quent generation of heat which will incur a considerable loss of ammonia. Practical experimnent.s nmade with eqltal weights of stable manure exp)osed to the sun, and with thlat, iunder cover, show~ thle effect of the btter to be, within a certain time, about t wenty -fivo per cent, greater than the former. 3d. rThie manure heap should be kept mToderately moist ; if it be t.oo dIry, tue e degree of heat thlen produced will v'.a-I tize ammonlia ; if too wvet, an acid hhmis will he formed, whlich, beitig solnble in. water, acts very injuriously on vegeta tion. In order best to attaIn this end, he ground should be slightly inicline.d, and all thle flhdd that runs from the heap be collected fn a pit., and f romn time toe scattered over the heap. DESPF.RA'rE AFtAY IN MISStSSrPPr. .ifempAis, March 8.-Captain H-aynies, of the A rkansas militia, accompanied by Sergeant. Brown and Finch, of the Me. tropolitan police, with a requisition from Governor Clayton, of A rkansas, approv. ed by Governor Brownlowv, went to Harn Lake, MississIppi, twelve miles beilow here, for the purpose (of arresting Cub Hlarlar, a notorious Choetaw Indian who had fled from Arkansas. On ap proaching the house, Cub, who evident. ly stuspected their intention, met them at the door with a revolver in each hand, and opened fire on the party, ahooting Sergeant Finch through the body, and causing a wountd from which he hasl since died. Capt. Haynes was also shot twice in the groin and dangerously wounded. Brown and Capt. Haynes were under the impression that- they had badly wounded the Indian, but la ter reports state that lie retutrned to his u house, wvhere the affair occurred last night, and stole two horses in revenge for his supposed betrayal.
