C., has arrived here with a petition to Congress asking the Go? vernment to rebuild the Catholic hospital iu that city. The hospital was destroyed by the shells from tho Union army during the war. This being a similar claim to that of Sue Murphy, it will not bo aoted upon until after the disposition of the latter by Congress. There is a very prevalent error that tho thirteenth section of the Act of 1862, author? izing tho President at any time hereafter, by proclamation, to extend to persons who may have participated in the rebellion in any State or part thereof pardon and am? nesty, is still in force. The section was ro pealed by the last Congress, so that the President, in issuing his last amnesty pro? clamation, has not this Act to rely upon, nor did he rely upon any Congressional authori? ty, but entirely upon the power with which ho believes he is invested by the Constitu? tion of the United States. His answer to Senator Ferry's resolution of inquiry on the subject may be expected in the course of a few days. Mr. Wadsworth, of Kentucky-who, it will be remembered, was ou one occasion introduced to a public audience by General Grant as "his (Grant's) old school-mate, who could talk to them better than himself" -has favored the editor* of the Paris Ken? tuckian with his opinions of the General's views and policy. It seems to be the "old school-mate's" idea that Grant is more of a radical than the radicals themselves give him credit for, aud that if Kentucky wishes to receive favors at his hands, she must adopt the fourteenth amendment to tho Constitution, or some similar article allow? ing universal suffrage. Mr. Wadsworth be? lieves that tho reconstruction policy of Congress will be carried out rigorously by Grant. The Reconstruction Committee, it is un? derstood, is beginning to weary with the testimony of tho carpet-baggers who appear before it from Mississippi and Georgia. The testimony of ono is that of all the others, and the committee have heard no? thing so far but un eudless story of the Ku Klux outrages, aud urgent appeals lo put the management of affairs in these States into tho hands of ii few Northern adven? turers at the head of the negroes. Several members of tho committeo have got their eyes opened to the fact that what is wanted by these men, especially in Georgia, is a new deal of tho offices, State and national. Tho committeo had a mcetiug to-day and examined a Mr. Field, from Missiosippi, and a Mr. Stone, from Oeorgia. Field testified ninety-nine out of every hundred of tho white people of Mississippi are rebels. Upon somo of tho committee expressing surprise at such a sweeping statement, Field said that was true of his locality, but a close examination showed that he lived in au isolated country district and knew very little about the State in general. Stone told the same old story of tho Ku Klux out? rages in Georgia, and depicted an unusually horrible condition of affairs. Judge Bing? ham asked him if matters wore no better sinco Grant waa elected, whereupon ho softened a little, and admitted that since the election tho rebels, as he called them, woro more subdued. Tho truth is, tho members of the committeo havo very little faith in tho majority of the startling stories told by these too willing witnesses. -O A menagerie manager uses a cage of wild beasts as a burglar-proof safe. GHOSTS, OLD AND SEW. CONCLUDED. "OD returning to consciousness, I found myself lying on a couch in the room which you now occupy. The curtains were drawn, and surrounding objects at first dim and in? distinct. Presently, I distinguished the forms of tho children, Virginia, Minnie, and Rose-Rose, then n iittlo fairy iu her fifth year. She had grasped my hand. At the farther end of the room were several of the servants weeping. My first exclamation, as Virginia uftorwards told me, wus, 'My darling childrcu, poor Henry is dead! You will never seo your brother agaiiil' Between the interval of my visionv?for I know not what e!"3 to call it, and a return to con? sciousness, Virginia and Minnie had gather? ed from the servants that near the aspen tree, ns I was about to turn in at the gate, I had suddenly stopped, cried out the name of my son, and then be? came insensible. With the assistance of others, immediately HU m moued, they had borne mo to the house in a state of utter prostration To this day I have not deemed it prudent or advisable to communicate to my children what I saw on that dreadful morning; and hud it not been that my first expression, on a return to consciousness, was of Heary's death, not a word should have escaped me on tho subject. Withiu my own breast it would have been concealed, until confirmed or proved to be unreal. But so far as they could connect anything with it, they urged me to disabuse my mind ol the impression, and then when the post arrived we should hear that he was alive and well. They pretended that I had dreamt it, and that, like the shadow of a dream, all would pass happily away. I allowed there so to think, fully convinced, however, that their poor brother was no longer in thu world. "A fortnight or more had passed, when to the surprise of every one, Uncle laban made his appearance. To me the nowa o his arrival seemed fo be a death-blow Preceded bv the children, I went to tin p'.::i'..'.:t .0 CCC 31*3? ? iigiuin uutntu lui others, and I heard her say, 'Where'i your master, Harry?' 'Mas9a Henry gpm dead, missy,' he replied; and the poo slave burst into tears. After a few moments ho continued, 'They sent me homo to Alti Vista, and told mo to take this letter to ur missis.' He then produced from a clot! in which he had carefully wrapped it, a let ter, together with a small sealed packet The letter proved to be from one of Henry' brother officers. I have it here now, am will read it you. It was dated at For Madison, on the Rio Grande, 15th of May 1834. " 'DEAR MADAM: lt lias fallen to my lo to communicate to you most sad news Your son Henry, our late companion am friend, is no more. Ho fell, iu a duel, oi tho morning of the 13th instant, about o'clock, having been shot through the neck I was with him when he expired, aud hear the word 'mother' pass from his lips. Hi death was almost instantaneous. As I ac sure it will be a satisfaction to you and Maj Pollard to know the circumstances whic led to this melancholy event, I hore giv them. At the mess-table, on the precedin evening, everything had gone on, up to certain period, in the utmost harmony an hilarity, when Capt. S-most uuhappii turned the conversation to the subject c slavery. Beiug a violeut Abolitionist, h became unguarded in his remarks, aud sai many things derogatory to all slave-owneri whom he denounced in a body. The otht officers present did what they could to ii terpose and check his language, which oui became more offensive and insulting, ? also to allay the indignation evidently risin on the part of your son. We rose from tl: table in confusion, and sought our quarter greatly grieved at what had takou place, an not free from strong suspicions that Lieu Pollard would seek apology or redres Thc same night I received a message froi him, and by tho hands of the surgeon 1 sont a note to Capt. S-, demanding retraction of the words ho had uttered, m in the presence of all before whom thc were spoken. This not being granted, meeting was fixed for the next morning at o'clock. I accompanied your son to tl ground. The ball of hisnntngonist pierce his neck, and ho fell. Wo placed him tho foot of a neighboring tree, where li servant Isham hud already deposited li clonk, sash, and cap. Tho doctor imm diately opened his collar to search tl wound, but it was apparent he was beyoi all mortal aid, and in a moment or two ! breathed bis last. I eau not close wi tho adding that no ono stood better in tl service than your*sou did. He was a bra youug soldier, aud high-minded beyond L years. His uniform modesty of demeauc and unaffected goodness, won the hearts all. Every mau in this detachment motu his loss, and no one feels his death mn keenly than ho by whose, hand ho fell. V send Isham with this letter, and ho will el liver at the same time a small package co faining a watch and a few other persoi objects which wo know ho valued, and Isbn tells us he had put together, sealed, a: addressed to yourself, before retiring to ri ou tho night before that fatal mornic Accept my warmest sympathies on this ti riblo bereavement, and believe nie to reina dear madam, yours most faithfully, " 'JOHN DEAS." Hero tho uarrativo of Mrs. Pollurd en< On an afternoon in tho following mon of June, a funeral procession was seen leave tho p rtico of the house of Alta Vis It was composed of Mrs. Pollard, ber cl dren, with numerous relatives and frier who had colleoted together from the uoij boring plantations; and also of 150 negro their servants, who joined it on tho lav The latter wore dressed in their best ap rel, coarse and homely, but tidy and ne and as those people oro wont to do, givi way, now and then, to loud bursts of gri They wore headed by Uucle Isham i Unelo Major, the latter a slave then cigl years of age, who had been the personal servant of Mr. William Beeves, while serv? ing in the army of the United States during the revolutionary war, and is still living (1848) with the Beeves family at Oak Bidge Plantation. Passing through tho garden, the procession entered the cemetery beyond, and on tho spot which Uncle Ben had cleaned and weeded on the morning of tho 13th of May, next to the gravo of his sister ? Lucy, Henry Pollard was laid. On a mar- j ble tomb, rising over it, may be read theso | words: "Hero rest the mortal remains of Henry, son of Richard and Pauline Pollard, of Alta Vista, who died in Louisiana, on the 13th of May, 1834, aged twenty-five years." As to the other actors in this strange but true tale, Captain S-became a prey to remorse. His days and nights were passed in vain and fruitless regrets. In numerous conflicts which took place on the frontier where he was stationed, with the neighbor? ing tribes of Indians, renegade Texans, Mexicane, and others. I1?3 recklessness and daring were remarked by all. During tho invasion of Mexico by General Scott, his regiment was attached to thc division under General Garland. It bore a conspicuous part in all the actions from the taking of Vera Cruz to tho capture o? the city of Mexico itself. As the army approached the capital, tho fortified heights of Chapul tepee, Churubusco, and Molino del Bey wore stormed with groat slaughter. Brevet Colo? nel, as Captain S- had now become, led the attack on Churubusco. He snatched the regimental color from the bearer and planted it on the parapet, which, with a few others, he was the first to gain. He was struck almost instantaneously, by three musket-balls, and after felling, he placed his forage cap over his faco and expired. Lieutenant Deas I know rather intimately when I passed through Detroit in 1844. He was then senior lieutenant of the 5th regi? ment of infantry. I dined twico with him at tho mess, when the Mexican war broke out; he had become a captain, and was with the division of the army under General Tuylor, which entered Moxico from Texas, crossing the Rio del Norte. He was disabled for some time from a severe wound which he received at Resaca de la Palma, and was shot while swimming tho Rio Grande, with a few men of his company, just a few hours before the attack oa Matamoras. [Neto York Sunday Timen. -o FUIE IN HASEL STREET.-On yesterday morning, at about 4 o'clock, a fire was dis? covered in the auction and commission bouso of Campbell, Knox & Co., Hasel street, next South of the storo of Strauss k Vance, at tho corner of Meeting, which spread with great rapidity, consuming tho building and its entire contents. Thc wooden stables of Richard McHunny, a thrifty colored mau, next door, were also consumed; fortunately ho saved his live stock and carriages, although he lost all his harness. Ho owned the property, whioh was uninsured. The fire burned through to the rear of Meeting street, damaging very materially the back of the store lately occupiod by Holmes k Calder, in which Mr. William L. Webb, just recovering from a fire, was temporarily storing a portion of his stock of crockery, which was damaged. The building occupied by Campbell, Knox ?fe Co., and tho one on Meeting street burnt and damaged by water, were the property of Messrs. Spofford and Hatch, tho former Of Now York, and the latter of this city; on them there is an insurance of $10,000 in the agency of Captain S. Y. Tupper. Tho stock of Campbell, Knox <fe Co., is insured in tho same agency for $4,000 and tho office fixtures in the agency of Z. B. Oakes for $225. They saved a portion of their books which were found to be charred on opening the snfo. Tho fire is believed to have been the act of incendiarism. Mr. F. B. Hagood, who slept above tho storo, says that ho was awakened by a stifling sensation, and that on getting out of bed, he found thc floor was very warm. Ho went to the window and looked out and saw a reflection of tho fire. Ho gave the alarm for some time and had a narrow escape, losing even his clothes. Theso sumo pieces of property have been destroyed by fire no less than three times. [Charleston News, lo///.
