Bringing to Winchester fresh dismay.
The affrighted air with a shudder bore,
Like a herald iu baste to the chieftain's

The terrible grumblo and rumble and roar,
Telling the battle was on once more,
And Slieridun twenty miles away.
And wider still those billows of war
Thundered along the horizon's bar,
And louder yet in Winchester rolled
The rottr of that red sea uncontrolled,
Making the blood or the listener cold
As he thought of the stake in that fiery fray,
Aud Sheridun twenty miles away.
But there is a rond from Winchester town,
A good, broad highway leading down;
Aud there, through the Hush of the morn
ing light,
A steed, us black as the steeds of night,
Was t-eon to puss as with CHgle flight
As if he knew the terrible need
lie stretched away with his utmost speed;
Hill rose nnd fell but his heart was guy,
With Slui'iiluit til tec n miles away.
Still sprung from those swift hoofs, thun
dering south.

TALES AND SKETCH ES.

(Special Correspondence of The Press.)
City Point, Va., Nov. 0, 1804.
In the absence of news in reference to
the military situation, I know of nothing
better to communicate than the unpleasant
cxperianceof Mr. Albert Stuck, the leader
ol the band in the 5th Michigan Cavalry,
who was taken prisoner by the enemy
about ths 10th of last May. Mr. Stuck
was engaged at the time in assi.-tiug
the woumled, a duty which is assigned to
the musicians in anil after every engagement.
He was captured at the residence of Miss
French, between Spottsylvauia Court House
and Fredericksburg, bv that class of persons
. ...,.,, ,i,o ,,c
union.' the en. mv w ho assume Ihc garb ot
peace and are ostensibly uon-combataets
tiutnaly belong to that infamous gang
known us bushwhackers. These land pi
rates arrested him us a spy, and with a fa
miliarity which manifested their knowledge
of highway robbery, they plundered him of
all his money, jewelry, and even his boots,
which, being ton small for them, they car
riek them away in their hands. This set of
marauders having taken what they consider
ed their share of his property, he was hur
ried oil' a distance of ten miles to what is
pronounced tho Gold Mill run. He was
there passed over to the safe keeping of
other rohliers, who ordered him to strip
himself of his clothing, which lie refused to
do until a revolver, in a very threatening
attitude, was placed in verv close contact
with his face, which act was accompanied
with lant'uai'u which changed Mr. Stuck'
mind. Among other things, one of tl.eni
asserted that he had killed seventeen Yan
kees after they were taken prisoners, and he
be d d if ho would not shoot a dozen more
for as good a suit of clothes as he had on.
The brother of this gloating murderer, who
soctned to possess a similar spirit, suggested
that ho had better take him from thu road
to shoot him, which suggestion was com
plied with. Seeing that the denial of their
demands would likely cost him his life, he
divested himself of all his clothing except
ing his shirt, before the revolver was turned
from his head. When this Union prisoner
complained, he was iufnrmed that he had
gotten off very well, as they had left him a
shirt, but wheu they turned him over to the
next "guards" they would likely take that
article from him. As he presented rather
an immodest appearance, one of them, who
bad appropriated his overcoat, cut the cape
off and gave it to him. The shirt he still
wears, as he was never favored with a
change while in the Confederacy. He was
deprived of soap and confined under such
cireitmstarwi fts prevented" his obtaining
water to eleaese It.
Mr. Stuck was taken to Orango Court
House, where ho was tried as a spy, but as
he was able to prove that ho was captured
in our lines, tho charge was not substantt
,.t...l Mm uaa then uluced iu tho Lvnch-
bur" prison among our wounded soiuiers,
. - 1 1 . . . , . . CSCHpe flye different
I : W i! ttira retaken, lie had
i .i Uu.u.Uia 1,-uiu rl. rebel Rfiity, aa well HI
suspicious looking individuals. About the
time that General Hunter threatened Lynch
burg, he, with others, was removed to the
pen in Andersonville. Ga. He was auite ill
during his stay there, which was until Gene
ral Sherman captured Atlanta, when the
Union sufferers in that "dead 'pen" were
distributed in Augusta, Charleston, Savan
nah, and Columbia. Before Mr. Stuck reach
ed Charleston, his place of destination, he
again aitempteil to make Ids escape, but
was so weak that he stopped at Graham's
Station, Ga., and, ou going to a family by
that name, he told tliem his story, when
they gave him sotnethini; to eat, a place to
sleep, nnd sent him to Charleston under
guard. He became very sick trora eating
fruit, and when he arrived in Charleston he
was placed iu the hospital with the sick and
wounded prisoners ; but, believing that !t
would certainly die if he remained there, ho
again made his escape. He secured a fishing
hue with which iie caught subsistence; and
grow ing more bold, and the dirty Confede
rate clothes favoring that purpose, he ven
tured out into the city and disposed of his
fish, with the proceeds of which he pur
chased such things as he wanted to eat. He
made lus quarters in tbe deserted buildings
which were exposetl to the shelling from
our batteries, in which he was safe from ob
servation. On the night of the fourth day
iu this situation it was quite dark and rain
ing hard, which suggested to him tliHt it
was a favorable opportunity to escape to
to our fleet. Going to the waterside, he
confiscated a boat, which had the misfor
tune to have but one oar. He took a pick
et from a fence near by, shoved off his bout,
struck for a light which he supposed to be
one ot out gunboats, but w inch proved to
be ou Fort Summer. As the tide wan
ting out he easily passed Castle Pickney
and Sumpter, but having started toolale, the
tide turned before he reached our fleet,
though it was visible through the occasion
al flashes of lightening ; tbe batteries which
were shelling Charleston were only a mile
distant when his picket oar broke, and he
was seen by the light i f their firing. The
misfortune of the tide and the breaking of
his oar sealed his fate, uud being entirely
unacquaiuted with managing a boat m a
heavy sea, he gave tip in tlispair, w hich was
the more painlul, as hope had but a few
moments previous given place to on exult
ing confidence. His boat floated ashore on
James Island, and having had nothing to
eat since the morning before, he imprudently
ate too many oysters, w hich sickened him.
About ten o'clock A. M. he was picked up
by a patrol, and having tin every other oc
casion told the truth w hen he was recap

there would be in varying Lis story a little,
as he was confident that if obliged to sub

I'nioii captives in Southern prisons, he
would be unable to survive it any longer.
He told the provost marshal ou .lames Is

the story, and told Mr. Stucke that he be
lieved that he was a Yankee prisoner endea
voring to make his escape; but, however,
he forwarded him to Captain Gear, :rovoJ.
marshal of Charleston, who sympathized
with him, and believed l is account of him
self, and kindly remarked that he would
send him to the surgeon to be examined,
who would furnish him with another certifi
cate, when he would give l.iui a pass
that
would save him from all future trouble, and
enable him to uo wheiever he pleased. The
; aurgeon, w ho seemed to understand his case
pertectly, said he isjfv uo evidence that lie
had ever been attacked with fits, but what
seemed to be the matter with him was the
irregularity of his diet, eating too much at
one time aud not again for a day or two.
The surgeon then exhorted him to do his
duty like a man, shoulder his musket, and
like a true son of Virgiuia, tight valiantly
for the cause of the Confederate States, as
there was metal enough in the supposed Mr.
French to make a good soldier. He was
soon marched oil' under the escort of guards
us a conscript, to the' cars, and lauded in
Columbia, South Carolina. This took place

unfavorable opiuion ot the enemy s commis

hurd crackers aud a piece of "bacon, which
sickeued him in his weak condition. He
was cutiued in prison with rebel conscripts
and deserters, ou one side ol a largo hull,
and on the other were Union ollicers, pri -

themselves that he was a genuine Union
man, and thut his true story was worthy of
belief, aided him w ith some money to make
purchases for something to eat, and advised
hi in to join, as it is the privilege of the rebel
conscript to elect with what organization
ho wishes to be connected, tho UUth South
Carolina Infantry, which proved to be as
satisfactory us was possible under the cir
cumstances. He was soon sent to that regiment, which
was stationed in front of Petersburg, where
he arrived on Thursday, was excused from
duty ou account of ill "health on Friday, w as
put on wood duty on Saturday, and on Sun
day an old gun was given to him to rleun
up, with orders that he woa to go on picket
duty that night with two other members of
his company. U6 whittled two small plugs,
removed the caps from the muskets of h'a
comrades, inserted tho plugs in tho tultts,
blocked the ends, and replaced the caps,
without its being discovered, so that if he
was seen in tho escape w hich be resolved
upon while on the picket line, their guns
would do ' bitn no harm. After being tta

The Liverpool (England) Mercury con
tains a letter from Mr. .1. 1'. Ashtou, agent
of the contractors for the iron work of the
bride crossing the Mersey, at Iluncorn, Lan
cashire, giving the account of the discovery
of a human body in a most excellent state
of preservation, which must have lain in the
rest of death for 1.500 years. We add the
account as given by Mr. Ashton ;
The discovery was- made in the following
manner; On the 27tit of August, while
sinking one of our caissons, an obstacle was
met with wliieh defied the pressure ex
crcisd by our sinking npparatus. Divers
were sent down, who. on removing a quan
tity of sand from about the base of the cais
son, reported the obstacle to be a large log
of wood. By the help of a strong crane,
and after removing tho pressure from the
caisson, we were enabled to draw it up to
the staging, and found it not to be a log of
wood, as the divers, misled by its general
attritled state, had reported, but a large
I coflin shaped liox of great strength, mea
suring ntiout eight leet by tli roe tret, lliei
wood had become impregnated with oxide j
oi iron, iroui tne red sandstone, wuicn nau
made it as hard as iron itself, so that it was
with the greatest dijliculty that we were
enabled to prize open the lid. The inside,
which was roughly hewn to the shape of a
human body, with a large additional space
at the head, was lined wita a gleyish, bitu
minous substance, and contained the body
(if a mnn in n most wonderful state of pre
servation. It is nttired in the dress, of a wealthy no
man citizen, the tunic and toga both white,
embroidered with purple and gold threads.,
the toirs fastened with a handsome gilt libu
i la. The straps of the buckskins are studded
with golden bosses. Attached to a girdle
j are a tablet and a golden hilted stylus.
I The t-mt twtmMr, in fact, while not glaring,
! is rich and tasteful. The body, though iu
civil dress, appears to be that of a leginory
I officer, as a large military cloak is
swarthed round it, mid by Us sides are a
short (the famous Komau ''gradium'')
with its belt, a javelin and a vinea, such as
centurians used to discipline among the
men. A fine onyx signet ring, bearing the
letters S. 1'. Q,. ft., aud a figure of a wolf, -is
on the finger. This I conjecture to be a
gvmhol of authority delegated by the Bo-
",;ln Jennie, or tne men reigning emperor,

balmed 1:1 soskiit'll a manner as to preserve,
; even after this lap.se of time, the features to
i tally distinct, but is excessively fragile,
I crumbling at a touch : in fact, it has only
, been preserved from total destruction by a
i mantle, and by a quantity of a cryptgatnic
; plant allied to a Common equisetuui, which
j is packed around it, keeping it steady and
j immoveable in the coffin. I forbear giving
:i more detailed account, and will proceed I
i mention briefly the contents of the space
above the head ol the comse. A niiaimtv
of the equisetuui like herb sustains uninjured 1
an ampiiora ol course earthen ware, with a
yellow vitrerous glaze.
The handles and neck arc broken off, and
inside it is placed also with packing a
beautifully executed cenerary urn of red Sa
mian ware, containing ashes, aud a small
roll of vellum covered with characters which
I am unable t decipher, but I believe to be !
Saxon. Sprinkled through the scroll 1 how
ever find the Ho in an name "Q. Sulpicins,
Piso," the initials. "8. P. tj. H," the words
"legatus," "crematto," "manes," "lares," and
a few others. This scroll I therefore im
agine to hold tho key to the enigma pre
sented by the many anopalous appearances
I have described and am about to describe.
In the amphora, beuenth the urn, are a num
ber of ornaments of gold and silver, such as
were worn by the Saxon lemahs of rank;
among them is a kind of rude locket con
taining a long t.-rss of glossy yellow- hair.
The ornaments appear to be a set, as if thev
had belonged to one clerson, and this fact.
coupled with the presence of the hair, leads
me to suppose the ashes contained in the .
urn to be those of the ow ner both of them
aud the hair. The amphora also contains
a small packet 'of coins, nearly one bun- I
dred in number, of which forty-three are
gold, and of the reigns of the Koman em
perors Honoring, dating A. i). 410, a few
of Hadrian, Autonius, rnd Severns, with
earlier dates.
Thu remaining coin, are silver, probably
Saxon, but ow ing to their mutilated and de
faced condition 1 am unable to say positive
ly, On ouc only is a date visihle, vix., 405.
From those dates, as well as from the Saxon
ornaments, I am inclined to refer the re
mains to about tho date of the first arrival
of the Saxous in Hritain. The corps may
be that of one of the last emissaries of Home
to this Island or as history speaks of no
political intercourse between Uouie and our
Island at that time, he may have been con
nected with a religious, not a civil mis
sion. The ashes I nurmisu to be those of a
Human female. Hut now shall we account
for the presence of the remains of a Human j
and a Saxon it: a common tomb?' More I
strange still is the emlmlmhtg of the Roman
and tho ert unit ton of the Saxon. The posi- j
Hon ol the cotliin in the ln-il o: the river is
also strange ; but an overturned boat and
the shifting sands may account for this.

Want of Ieelloii.
Sidney Smith, in his work ou Moral Phil
osophy, speaks in this wise of what men
lose for w hat of a little "brass," as it is
termed :
"A great deal of talent is lost to the world
for the want of a little courage. Every day
sends to their craves a number of obscure
men who has only remained fn obscurity be
cause their timidity has prevented them
from making a first effort, and who, if they
only ht.d been induced to begin, would, in
ull probability, have gone great lengths in
the career cl fame. The fact is. that in lin
ing anything in the World worth doing, we
must not stand shivering on the bank think
ing of the cold and danger, but jump in aud
scramble through ns well as we can.
' It will not do to be perpetually calculat
ing risks aud adjusting nice chances; it did
all very well before the flood, wheu a man
could consult his friends upon an intended
publication for a hundred and fifty years,
and live to see its success for six or seven
centuries afterwards; but at present a man
waits and doubt?, and consults his brothers,
and his uncltes, aoul h.U particular frisivls,
till oue day he rinds that he is a sixty-five
years ol age, that he has lost so much time
in consulting first cousins and particular
friends that he has no more time to follow
their advice. There is so little time for
overBqitcamishncss at present, that the op
portunity slips away. The very period of
life at which man chooses to ventuie, if ever
is so confined, that it is no bad rule to
preach tip the necessity, in such instances,
of a little violence done to the feelings, and
efforts made in defiance of strict aud sober
calculation.
Tim Hitman 1'iuse. The human pulse
has in all ages been consulted us bn index
of health or disease. It is a kind of dial
within us which gives us both the measure
of time and of health. The pulse of a per
son in health beats about seventy strokes in
a minute, and the ordinary time of lil'u is
seventy years. In this seventy years, the
pulse of a temperate person beats two bil
lion five hundred and seventy-four million,
four hundred and forty thousand times. If
no actual disorganization should happen, a
druuken person might live until his pulse
beat this number of times; but by the con
stant stiuiulous of ardent spirits, or by the
pulse quickening food, the pulse becomes
greatly accelerated and the two billion, five
hundred and seventy-tour million, tour hun
drsd and forty thousiiud pulsations, are per
formed iu little mop; than the ordinary
term of human life, at.d life goes out in for
ty or forty -five year instead of seventy.
This application of numbers is given to
show that the acceleration of those forces
diminishes the term of huniau life.
