that as to all these we should induce desertion by
keeping for them an open door. A negro who Will

{Sib : 1 Lave the honor to enclose copy of a letter
from the Secretary of the Navy, in relation to a
forgery extensively circulated by the European
press* purporting to be » copy of an official report
addressed by him to "T. S. Babcock,” Speaker of
the House of Representatives of the Confederate
St Thepaper is on its face so palpably a fabrication,
that one would scarcely have supposed it could dupe
the most credulous, even if experience had not al
ready demonstrated the facility and abundance with
which “ telegraphic news,” ‘ 1 Confederate confes
sions” « intercepted letters,** and “extracts from
•HichmoDd papers,” have been manufactured for
European consumption. You will notice that the
paper is stamped as a forgery in the mere address,
not only by the misname of our Speaker, but be*
cause the reports of the head of the Navy Depart-
Tnimt nr© never H'ldrc.ftd to thfl Speaker of the
Home. The content* of the paper ore too absurd
for comment. , . , ..
A* the Secretary of the Navy haa been informed
by Commodore Maury that thia paper 1* « going the
round* of the Continental pres* as gospel,” It may
be well, it you think the matter worth notice, to
make publfo the fact that the paper ii a forgery.
1 am inclined to think the publication should be
made, for no fable concerning u* la too absurd for
belief, real or pretended, in Eogland or on the conti
nent. A abort time ago, European papers were
gravely commenting on the “fact** that our Vice
President. Mr. Stephen* (who cannot abandon his

Upon the appearance of this miserable forgery In
the English journals, Commander m. F. Maury de
nounced It over his own signature In tho Loudon
Times, but a United States journal, In commenting
on his letter, reaffirms the authenticity of the report.
Under these eiroumstanoes, Mr. Mallory addressed
a note to the Seoretary of State, in which he pro
nounced the report, from beginning to end, a
forgery, The document, however, assumed addl.
tional importance in Europe from the fast that the
English Attorney General, In a speech in tho House
of Commons, In defence of the source of the Minis
try on the subject of Laird’s rams, quoted It as au
thentic. On Mr. Benjamin’* attention being called
to the subjeet by Mr. Mallory, he wrote a letter to
Mr. Slidell, our commissioner at Paris, directing
him to make an official publication explaining that
the report was a gross fabrioation.

cause for alarm was speedily dispelled. Oa the
opposite side of Main street) the fine plate glass
In the front part of the stores occupied by P.
Horton Ketch, R. Wendenburg & Co., and the

into hundreds of pieces, owing to the intense
beat produced by the fire* With the excep
tion of Baker & Go.’b foundry, all the rest
of the buildings belonged to John W. Davies, but
the ground on which they stood was the property of
the Masonic fraternity of this city. Mr. D.’s loss
altogether will probably reach $15,000. None of the
property destroyed was covered by an insurance,
. an<*, therefore, the entire loss falls on the shoulders
of the owners thereof. , ...
The fire was the work of an incendiary, and the

Barbarities of the Rebellion.
A correspondent of the Chattanooga Gazette fur
nishes the following horrible aocount of rebel cruel
ties practised upon an Alabama Unionist.
»* Xn 1001 a Unionist was forcibly arrested by a
mob. at his house, in Randolph county, Alabama,
and marched off in an adjoining thicket $ the mob
here rifled him of his pocket-book, boots, and coat,
tied him, and held a consultation to determine his
fate. It was soon determined ‘to put him in the
tories* yokebut first of all, to try to make him ac
knowledge to having done and said things of which
hewaainnocent. MV4VI M /
After trying some time to accomplish their objeot,
by questioning and threatening, they-resorted to
mote severe measures. Untying him, they took off
his clothing, laid him down upon a log, laahed him
firmly to it, and with large hickory awltohes oom
meneed lacerating him. Four let in on him at once,
and the number loon increased to. fix, They con
tinued to heat him there for a long time, pausing oc
casionally and asking him if he would confess, and
upon hie refusing, would let in on him more vigor
ously.
The blood tiiokled from his baok in streams. Hie
piteous appeals in bebelf o t mercy were totally dis
regarded. Nature finally yielded, and the poor man
swooned *Dd was lost to consciousness for ssveral
minutes. As soon as he revived these hellish tor
mentors resumed their tortures. They split the ends
of green stloks, and twitting them in his hair and
pulling violently, caused the most exoruolating pain.
This Bn d other fiendish operations ware continued ‘
for some time. They then cut off his fingers at the
second joint, as also his ears close up to bis hsad.
The next step was to cut off his arms at the
elbows, and the legs at the knees. After this ope
ration, the wretohed victim fainted, and, failing to
recover for several minutes, the murderers pro
nounced him dead, and began to prepare to leave,
but at thia moment their victim showed signs or
life. They now tied a rope round his neck, and hung
him to a limb near by, and instantly decamped,
leaving him suspended between the heavens and the
earth. The third day afterwards the body was dis
covered, taken down, and decently interred by
friends-
Mr Editor, this Is no myth ; ’Mi no exaggeration.
It is worthy of remark that it is an impossibility to
belie a rebel, unless you say he la honest, a gentle
man, or a humane being. ,
At the time of the above murder I wae engaged in
sohool-teaching in Calhoun county, not more than
tuentj-ftve miles from the murdered man’s house,
and I took eonelderable pains to find out all about
the matter.
The following we take from a St. Louis paper:
On the »th inat. a band of Mosa’pawpaw* went to
the bouse of Mr. Hams, near Hayneaville, Mo,
end ashed for his son, who hsd served in the provi
sional militia. Learning he was in, they went to
hia room and demanded his revolver. Young Harria
quietly said that, under the eireumstanoes, he
thought he had a rlght to keep it. Instantly one of
the bell-bounds drew his pistol and shot Harris
twice through the breast. The young man tottered,
and cried, ‘‘Don’t shoot me any more, and yon shall
have my pittol.” One of the misoreant wretches re
ceived it, and with it at onee deliberately blew out
young Harria 1 brains. The gore was scattered over
the father, and the ion tumbled a oorpie into the
fire.' Deceased was a religions and exemplary

Assistant Auditor Hunter, of the custom houses
having been arrested and held to ball on the charge
of having drawn for his own private behoof money
belonging to the Government, his suppositious de
fection has exoited much ire among those estimable
gentlemen who charge everything to the “ corrupt
ness of the Administration, you know.” Mr. Hun
ter, unfortunately for these orltlos, is an old Demo
crat, and there seems no ground for believing that
he has been at all culpable. From there facts, there
is ground for a faint suspicion that the Copperheads
have floored themselves, while endeavoring to set
np another outcry about corruption and the klepto
maniacs of the euatom house. The checks which
Mr. Hunter was eharged with having drawn have
been submitted to a mioroseoplo examination, which
proved them to be forgeries. Under the lens, it is
said, the letters of the signature are found to be the
result of repeated markings} that Is, that the out
lines have flist been traced, and Subsequently filled
up with repeated stroke* of the pen. When Mr.
Hunter is honorably discharged, the ooniervatora of
political morality will doubtleis charge that his
arrest wad ordered from Washington in order to
give the idea that Democrats, as well as Republi
cans, are sometimes faithless to their trusts. That
the trustworthiness of the assistant auditor will be
amply vindicated, no one doubt*. The exlstenee of
the fraudulent checks was, however, sufficient pre
sumptive evidence to warrant the authorities in the
steps which they have taken; at least, so the United.
States District Attorney seems to have thought.

The retail liquor dealers of the city are In some-,
what of a ferment, consequent on the legislative
effort now being made to prevent the vending of
chain-lightning on Sundays. These anti-Furitani

nonsense, of whloh Is denunciatory. Arrangements
are being perfected for opposing the bill and pre
serving to the community of retailers the inaliena
ble right of sending their pestilent wares percola
ting through the “ dim Interiors” of “the innocent
people.” There 1* but little prospect of any Sun
day law' proving effectual in New York. The
liquor interest is too powerful, physically and po
litically- It has scoured the election of more than
one mayor, and rules In the councils of the unterri
fled. Like the old Sunday law, and the concert
saloon law, it will be praoUoally ignored, and dosed
shutters, and doors speciously bolted, will, as before,
only serve to blind such as have no desire to imbibe
that fragrant neotar whloh so thoroughly impedes
the navigation of those who drink it. NowYorkis,
of all other American oltles, the moat intractable.
Perhaps, understanding the fact that it is too large
to be—metaphorically—whipped, it will have its
own way, whether in the matter of riots or liquor
selling. Despite the action.of Legislatures, Sunday
Will never be other than a day of carouie and self
degradation among the negro-tmrners and brutes of

Mr. Ball’s Corlolanus.
CBoftton CoTreapondenee of the Hound Table 1
Mr. Ball haa last east In plaater the imall model
of Forrest In Corlolanus, whieh heha* been making
in elav. He made a study of the head of the actor
while on a visit to Philadelphia, and fashioned the
figure from observation attendant upon witnessing
closely his various tbeatilo personations for some
weeks He verified his proportions by careful mea
surement of Ml part; ofthe body, and the figure a»
it atasds preserves this exactness, except in a trifling
undersize ef the head, which brings it nearer to olae
sic models. His objeet waa to give the spectator the
like impression of the aetor that he derives from see
ing him on the stage.
Mr Forrest, though not In reality the large man
he contrives to appear by hi* carriage and profess
slonal skill, conveys, perhaps, on tho stage, before
all thing* else, sn impression of stalwart power and
nisicstic Diesence. w ithout that atmosphere of
living personality which produces this result, the
sculptor must rely upon hie artistie skill to beget its
eaulvslent, and Mr. Ball has juddgod rightly that he
couldsot effect it so completely as by thus subjecting
the proportions of the head to this preponderance of
the bodily symmetry. It gives the desired result,
while it would need the application of the measuring
tape to detect the variation. The present model standi
not far from 2 feet high. The weight is chiefly thrown
upon the left foot, while the left hand, gathering up
the folds of the flowing robe to disentangle the feet,
discloses the bare musoular leg, with It* ssndsled
foot, up to the kittle, which is just glimpsed below
the drapery. The head is so lnolined to the right
that it presents its profile view when seen from this
side half way to the Jront. The effect here Is
strikingly grand; the outline of the drapery Is easy,
the weight is well supported upon that massive
lee—not in the least, however, exaggerated—and the
turn of the head discloses the thoroughly-Roman
strength of the neck*
Viewed on the opposite quarter, the face is seen
In full; the robe ha* fallen from the left shoulder,
disclosing the figured eorselet and leaving the arm
bare, the”hand' grasping a roll, the wrist thrown a
little out, and the knueklee touching the folds of the
lobe as they cover the thigh of the ‘extended right
leg. In this aspect, if not so strikingly statuesque
as from the other side, the life of the countenance
and the compactness of outline give it equal
jetty. The only thing hyperenticiim might okjsct
to would he the tult of whiskers before the ears, tne
moustache, and imperial, wkloh we copied from
life, and which the aotor himself wears in
bit personation. They are without doubt an

out. especially if, a* it perhaps is the cue, the ab
sence of all beard had impoverished the effeot of the
countenance. Mr. Bali, however, has given a truer

of It.
Death of the King of Bavaria.

—A misinformed cotemporary violently abuses
General W. F. Smith, recently confirmed aa major
general In the regular army, because, aa It says, he
failed in the reeentearalry expedition in Miaaisaippi.
The commander of that expedition waa,Brigadier
General W. S. Smith. There are five or more Ge
neral Smith! In the army: Major General W. F.
Smith, now aoling on General Grant’s ataff; Briga
dier General W. Spoy Smith, mentioned above;
Brigadier General Giles A. Smith, who commanded
a division in Sherman’s 15th Oorpa, and waa wound
ed at Missionary Ridge ; Brigadier General A. J.
Smith, commanding a division in the 17th Corps,
and in ebarge of the successful expedition up Red-
River; Brigadier General M, JU. Smith, command
ing an Infantry brigade aomewhere out Wert. Ma
jor General Charles F. Smith, who waa aeoond In
command to General Grant at Fort Donelson, died
in 1862, near Pittsburg Landing.
A Tribune despatch from Washington, March
24th, says: " The ladles at Willard’s convened in
one of the large parlora last evening and despatched
ameaaenger to General Grant, with the requeat that
he would give them an Interview. He good-natured
ly eame down from hia room and underwent a levee,
In the courae of which he frequently had to give hia
autograph. A smiling requeat frora.one lady to let
the crowd go to the army to see the grand review
waa adroitly denied by the General, with the reply
that 'When Mrs. Grant should come down for
that purpose he would be pleased to sea them also.*
The persistent dame recurred to the happiness she
had enjoyed at the recent ball in the army. The
General waa compelled to tell her flatly that, had
be been In command, no ball would-have been pet"
mltted, and he added that when he heard In the
West that the grand review that had been alluded
to waa to be got up for him, he had telegraphed an
order to squelch it; and he said, in conclusion, there
has been too flinch of this nonsense in the Army of
the Potomac. It must be stopped.”
The charming Grace Greenwood (Mre. Lippia
cott) visited the 2d Corps last week by invitation of
the Ist Division Lecture Association, and on Wed.
nesday, Friday, and Saturday evenings, and Mon.
day evening of thjs week, lectured to large and
greatly-Interested audience at the leoture-hall of the
Ist (Gen. Oaldwell’a) Division. Maj. Gen. Warren
and wife, Gen. Caldwell and wife, Gens. Kilpatrick
and Owen, and many other distinguished oßlicrs
and civilians attended the lectures, and paid their
respects to the fair leoturer. On Thursday (3t.
Patrick’s day) Mrs, Llpplnoott, attended by Gen.
Caldwell and staff, and several ladies, waa present
at the hurdle races near Steveneburg, and enjoyed
the sporta of the day, aa also the St. Patrick’s Ban
quet of the Irish Brigade in the evening. On Sun
day, the Same party visited the picket line on the
Rapidan. During all her stay In the army, Mrs. L.
was the recipient of constant and distinguished oouc
tealea at the hands of many of the leading offloers of
the corps. The entire oourse of lectures waa a com
plete suoccis, and the association deserves the high
est credit in affording to the gentlemen of the 2d
Corps ao rare and patriotic a literary treat.
