Not tbe lant memorable of the "pitcho'l
battlPR" of the lute war was that which was
loiifrot in front of this iir-and "intrenched camp"
that we call Corinth, ou the 3d and 4tu days ol
October, 18;2,
t During the pnt two davit, a portion of my
aojonrn hero has been ppen t in a partial explo
ration ol that pirt of the baUlo liold which lien
in the northwes'ern antrle ior:nea bj the croiw
inp oi tne Memphis and Charleston and Mobile
and Ohio Rullrouds. The aicfhH that I saw, ol'
vast numbers of Contcdernte ' bones," who'c
skeletons and parts of skeletons, lying; exposed
and bleach'nar on the licld, in the bushes, and
on the hillsides, mi.lcr lours, and on mumps; ot
the neatly inclosed and well-marked gravus of
Federal Holdieni, U buried at the proper depth,
and of tbe forest trees, in all directions, rent
and torn by hhot and shell, nnd all the "storms
of furious war," and of many separate and dis
tinct desperate conflicts, hand to hand, and
muzzle to muzzle; all these "Hitrhts," I say. are
v eil worthy of a brief record. besides, I have
Hiiuthct object in culling attention to the battle
field ol Corinth, apart irora tho graduation of
public curiosity; and that is to urp,e upon our
people the propriety ot collecting the bones of
their dead brci hren, at some suitable poi near
this place", and pivlnsr them decent interment.
It ectimated bv intelligent ccatlcinen ot this
town, that unon the two lields of Shiloh nud
Corinth, in this vicinity, there are not less th.iu
J 2,000 "Confederate dead," whose bones, lor the
inott part, lio bleaching above ground.
Ol all the Conloderate dead on this field,
Colonel Rogers is, i am told, the only one who
wns properly buried; that is to nay, the only
one who was buried deep enough to prevent (he
. rains from washing the dirt away and exposing
the bones, lie, it is said, was burled under tne
immediate Mipervii.ion ot General Kosccrans.
In the north wer.tarii angle formed by the
crossing ot the railroads from Corinth out to
d beyond the outer line of works, throe and a
7"iV ,ti. '. 'tant tne whole oft1 . . '
hulf miles ma..- . . th ...g grout hnttlo
ficld is dotted, here ana l-rela 0luc plares
thick as meadow mole-hills-i'V tne graven 0f
Fedeial and the exose rf,mafn3 ot- Confede
rate dead. The Confederate dea-L, it clearly
appears, were merely covered up on tho ground
where they ,vn. i:l0 Federal dead were all
neatly iuerrcd, in the usual wuy, with head
and lot-botirds in every instance, and in most
Wes, 1 believe, .were enclosed with wooden
Rulings. I saw bill one Federal grave where the
bones were at all exposed. I saw but one
Contr.dei ate tutnulns where the bones generally
the skulls were not more or less exposed and
scattered around us in all directions. At the
outer line of infrenchments, where a portion of
Mauiy's division made the apsauH, I saw two
human skull-bones, one pelvis, and two Jaw
bones, lyin on a stump, with no trace of a
grave or tumulus uearei than fifty or a hundred
yards. In front of the outer breastworks, not
tar lrom the same spot, I buw t vo tumuli, where
some six or eight Coniederote dead had been
uncovered by the uctioii ol the elements, aud
were lying around upon the grouud, already
bleached perfectly white, and. of course, crumb
ling rapidly to decay. The condition ot these
tumuli, I am told, by gentlemen residing iu the
vicinity, who have examined every pari of the
field, u a fair specimen of all the rest. In one
place as I was iulormed by Captain Mask, ol
this town, who, with Colonel Folk, rode over
the field with me the bodies of two or three
Confederates were placed side by side of a log
to save labor, I suppose and a little dirt thrown
upon them: tho dirt had all washed away, aud
there the skeletons lie, wholly exposed aud tin
cared lor, "litre the beasts that perish."
FIENDISH MURDER.

TUea Cats lit CuruiU from 12 fir to Er.
A man named Slolloy, recently divorced from
bis wife at St. Louis, followed lier to the resi
dence of her brother, Mr. Buucnuati, living at
Lake Station, thirty-six mlies from Chicago, on
the Michigan Central Railway. What the cuuse
was that led to the separation of Molloy Htid his
wile has not yet been made public, but it must
Lave been something vciy aggravating, tor the
ieclings ou both sides appear to have been in
tense, lie ues'ired to have her out of existence,
and with such an intent, openly expressed, lol-
Jowtd her from place to place, breathing ven
geance. 10 escape mm sue sougut reiuge v, uu

ne tied to iter apartment and locked the door.
At the time her brother wi s absent. Molloy do
mnnded admittance to herroom, but was re
fused. He departed, and Mrs. Molloy dismissed
from Jier mind all apprehensions, as ho took the
Iran tor Calcaao. and she went about her cus
tomary duties, on Wednesday evening she was
. uittinc in one of the upper rooms ot the hotel.
with two of her brother's children, who were
kneeling belore her with uplifted hands, repeat-
jug alter her their simple evening prayer, when
a footstep was heard ascending the stairs and
stealthily approaching the door. Mrs. Molloy
turned round in ner cnair, the door suddenly
opened, and ere she had BuUlcieut time, to fitter
H bcreuui, the man whom above all she dl-eaied
to meet Btood before her with a revolver pointed
at her head. Almost simultaneously he lired.
The shot whizzed pa:t lier and, lodged in the
opposite wall of the apartment.
" The children, alarmed at the report, and at
the appearance ol the man, screamed franti
cally, und rushed into a corner of the room,
where they remained terror stricken aud almost
v insen Bible. Finding that the shot had missed
its mark, Molloy drew a large sheath knife from
,'his belt, and rushing upon the defenseless
woman, seized her by the hair, and bending
lack her head, plunged the blade into her
throat, completely severing the wind-pipe and
jueufar vein. The dreadful deed was accom
plished beloro any alarm could be given, and
the murderer, his garments besmeared with the
Wood of his victim, nibbed to tho bottom of the
tuirg. He passed through the bar-room, where
a number of men were Heated round the stove,
Touched the door, and shouting "Now I am
revenged," fled from the houao, aud disappeared
In the adjacent woods.
So quietly was the thing done, and s,o com
pletely were the ltmat?s ot the house taken by
burpiire, that no attempt was made t bar his
passage. Mrs. Molloy, as soon as she had re
ceived the fatal stab, stagcered out of the room
and down the ttuirs, when she fell a corpse on
the lloor. Then a scene of unparalleled excite
jnent took place. The women and children
screamed, and the men rushed in all directions
in pursuit of the murderer. The telegraph and
hand cars were broup.btio.to use in endeavoring
to intercept the assassin. On Thursday morning
a large party organized and scoured the woods
in every direction, with the avowed determina
tion ol bringing him in, dead or alive. In the
afternoon he was found deud within two miles
of the house, with his throat cut from ear to
tar. Th9 iutiumeut ot death was the same

THE DAILY EVENING TELEG R APH. PHIL
THE LOSS OF TKE "GENERAL HOOKER."
Tbe Arconnt or th Fir and the Lots ef
Liicbt iive.
The Charleston Daily New of fie 22d instant
publishes the following, in relation to tho do
Atmction of the steamer General Uooktr:
The Pteamcr General Hooker, Captain Davld
fon, which has been plying as a packet lrom
this port to Georgetown, 8. C, tor several
months, left Boyce & Co.'s wharf, in this citv,
on Wednesday, about 8 A. M., aud about one
hour later, when the steamer was otf Urcech
Inlet breakers, Mio was found to be on tire in
and rear tUc coal bunkeis. Although a stream
of water was immediately played ou it, and
every cllbrt made to put out the flames, they
lucrcsted rapidly; aud in some fifteen minutes
the entire upper part of the steamer appeared
to be on hi o. The boats were got ready, and
tho steamer pointed for tho beach, but there was
a heavy sea rolling, which, with the confusion
among the passengers, interfered bcriously with
the use of the bouts, and tlually capsized aud
tilled them with water, causing; the drowning of
Beveial ladies, and perhaps others,
lho fire progressed so rapidly that the tiller
ropes were burnt before tho Hooker could be pot
to tbe beach, pnd she consequently bncume un
manageable. While In this position passengers
took to the water, and hung witU tenacity to
any object that would support them.
ihe steamer l'Uot Boy, Captain Payne, also on
her way to Goorgetoan, and which was about
one arid a half miles oil', put about and came to
tho aid of tho Hooker as soon as her situation
was known. Captain l'avue, on reaching the
spot, anchored his steamer to keep her head to
wind aud ten, pot out his life-boat, which was
tnken chnr.'O ol by Captain John Fenruson.
who, together with Captain Davidson, of the
Hooker, who wan in a half-sunken boat, and
Mr. Doanc, pilot, succeeded In placing some
twenty persons on the l'ilol Hoy, by which
means they reached thie) oily about 11 A. M
bringing the first news ot the disaster. Tho
following are the names of those who came up
U me x uoi Moy, as near as couia be asccr
tained: ,

The following areloct: Mrs. Uhodes, passen

l'hiladelphlo.
Miss lhi-h, danghterof the Mayor of George
town, Pouth Carolina, who was just returning
home from school. Her body was kept a'lout
by her clothing, and she w as picked tip, but life
whs extinct when she was got on board tho
steamer.
The number of colored persons drowned wc
found it impossible to learn, and placing them
at four or live, wc do so only conjectutally
there may have been a greater number. The
Hooker has burned to tho water's edge, and ha3
floated ashore on Hullivan's Ibland. The bodies
of Mrs. Rhode and a colored woman floated
ashoro on the beach yesterday, and others will,
no doubt, f-oon find their way there. Cnotains
Fertnii'on and Payne, and Mr. Doran, pilot of
the Hooker, are particularly spoken of in refer
ence to their eilorU to save the lives of the un
fortunate. The General Hooker is a tew boat, and is
owned by Messrs. McKay & Aldus, of liast Bos
ton. A woman in Detroit found a diamond In a
