Funeral of Corporal John A. Kelly.—
On Saturday evening last, Mr. Joshua Kelly, of
this place, returned from the battle-field of Antie
tam, with the remains of his son, Corporal John
A. Kelly, of Company D. 125th Beg’t ?. V., who
fell, mortally wounded, in the early part of the
engagement. It is said hy his companions that
he was bayoneted, before he died, by a rebel who
oamc up with him on the field. ' The day after
ihe battle his body was found by Wm. Aj B. Lanb,;
of the same company, who hdd been detailed to i
help bury the dead, who interred the remains as
decently as possible and marked the grave.
The funeral took place at three o'clock on Sun
day afternoon, and was attended by four compa- :
nies of the militia, the Good Will Fire Company,
and a very large concourse of citizens. His re
mains were deposited in the circle in the centre of
Fair View Cemetery, which, as our readers will
remember, has been tendered by' the Association
as tbe burial ground of all soldiers from Altoona
and vicinity who may die or be killed during the
Soldier Killed. —A soldier named Lewis F.
Smith, of New York city, a member, of the 'l2sth
X. V. Regiment, (paroled at Harper’s Ferry,) fell
froth the train at the stone barn below Birming
ham, on Saturday last, and was instantly killed.
His remains were brought to this place, where they
acre taken charge of by Mr. John Shoemaker and
others, and his father telegraphed of the accident.
He requested that a metalic coffin should immedi
ately !,e procured for his son’s body, and that he
would he here on Monday to take it home. The
coffin was furnished by Mr. Isaac Cromer and the
body pro|ierly washed and placet! therein. The
father arrived on the Main rain on Monday even
ing. and returned again with the corpse on the
Fast Line. Mr. Enoch Lewis. Supt. of the 1* R.
R.. kindly furnished a pass for the corpse and the
father from this place to Philadelphia.
At Homk.—Tlir oiiiccrs : I’o|xeV anny, taken
prisoners at tire buttle ot‘ Slaughter Mountain,
were released last week, and one ol’ the ntunber,
Lieut. John S. Campbell, of the 12th IT. S. In
lantry, arrived at his home, in this place, on Sun
day morning last. He continue the stories of the
dad treatment these officers received while in
Richmond. They were imprisoned in a room over
what was used as a dead house and which was
also used as a horse stable. The food given them
was often stronger than their stomachs were able
to bear, and contained more meat titan came out
of the beef. The guards would not permit them
to look out of the windows. He was at one time
shot at for his temerity in this : respect, the ball
graying his wrist; We are indebted to Lieut. C.
lor several copies of Richmond papers, but we have
not yet had time to examine them.
Bound “West. —The paroled prisoners from
that disgraceful surrender, at Harper's Terry,
passed over the Pennsylvania Rail Road last week,
on their way to settle the Indian difficulties in
Minnesota. While it was a disgraceful surrender,
so far as the officers in charge were concerned, no
stigma attaches to the subordinate officers or pri
vate soldiers, nor did our citizens so regard it, for
they supplied every train load with an abundance
of coffee, bread, cakes, pies, meat, &c., in fact, on
one or two occasions they almost rid the town of
bread, and many husbands had to make their sup-,
i pent ion warm cakes or do without. Hurrah for
the ladies. When they attempt to do a thing
they do it.
VVoexMD at Home. —Several members of the
companies from this place, who. were wounded in
the late battle, among whom are Lieut. Marshall,
young Burley and Minehard, have been home on
furlough, receiving home attentions, in order that
,dtey may the earlier be able, to take their places in
the ranks again. It is not likely that they will ever
bare to pus through as severe a conflict as their
fast proved to be. We hope they may always come
out as safely. '
Letters from the Army.— We have on hand
two letters from the army, which contain near
about the same information given in our last issue,
an s in our report of our visit to the late battle
field, in this issue, consequently wc have omitted
them. We hope our friends will not take um

Who is She ?— A day. or two since, Mr. Patton,
Post Master at this place, received a letter to be
handed to some lady whose name was unknown
to the writer. The following note, which ac
companied the letter, will partly explain the, cir
cumstance, and may enable Mr. Patton to discover
the lady to whom ithe letter should be delivered:
Ei F airfield Co., Ohio, >
1 September 27, 1862. )
P. -M., Altoona : — This letter is wished to be
delivered to the hands of a lady of your place—
name unknown. She traveled recently, (on the
18th and 19th of the present month) from Lithop
olis, in Fairfield county,-Ohio, to your place, and
arrived there on Friday afternoon, if riot detained;
is supposed to be unmarried; was in company with
her mother and little brother : of medium height .;
hair thought to be dork. If this can reach the
right, person it will inform her of the whereabouts
of a valuable dropped in the ca*-s. I hope you
will endeavor to find the lady. I think she is a
resident of yonr place and had been to Litbopolis
near four months, staying with a brother, I be
lieve, if not mistaken in what she was heard to
say- John Raley.
Condition of the Wounded.— We have heard
:but little from the wounded of the 125th this
week. They are now all in hospitals where they
will receive proper attention. Sergt. Hawkes
warth, of Capt. Hostetler’s company, who arrived
at home on the Fast Line last evening, informs ns
(that Capt. Hostetler was brought to Mechanics
burg on yesterday morning,a nd left in care of his
friends at that, place, and that Sergt. Russ was
brought to Harrisburg, witlnhe inienlion of send
ing him to. his home in this place. He reports
both as being on a fair way of recovery.

W-vsuiNoTox, Scpr. 30.—The following report
of the victories of South Mountain and Antictam
has been forwarded to the head-quarters of the
army by Gen. McClellan:
Neau Sii awsburg, Sepf.,29, 1.301*. M.—Maj,
Gen. Halleck, General-in-Chief of the United
States Army—-General; I have the honor to rc
pott the following as some of the results of the bat
tles of South Mountain mid Antictam :
. At South Mountain our' loss was—
Killed.. * 133
Wounded v 1,800
Missing 7G
Total 2,325
At Antietam our loss was—
Killed... .1 2,010
Wounded.. 9,416
'Missing 1,043
Total
Loss in the two battles,
The Rebels, in the two .battles, as near as can be
.ascertained from the number of their dead found
upon the field, and from other data, will not fall
short of the following estimate;
Major Davis, Assistant Inspector-General, who
Superintends the burial of the dead, reports abont
'three thousand Rebels buried upon the field of An
tietam by our troops. Previous to this, however,
■the Rebels had buried many of their own dead
;upon the distant portion of the battle field, which
ithey occupied after the battle, probablv, at least,
five hundred.
The loss of the Rebels at South Mountain can
not be ascertained with accuracy; but ns our troops
continually drove them, from the commencement
of the action, and os a'much greater number of
' tbfjr dead were seen on the field than of our own
"men, it is not unreasonable to suppose that their
loss was" greater than ours. Estimating their killed
at five hundred, the total Rebel killed in the two
[battles would be four thousand. According to the
ratio of our own killed and wounded, this would
make their loss, in wounded, 18,742.
As nearly os can be ascertained at this time, the
number of prisoners taken by onr troops in the
two battles will, at the lowest estimate, amount to
five thousand. The lull returns will no donbt
show a larger number. Of these about twelve
hundredare wounded.
This gives the Rebel loss, in killed, wounded
and prisoners, 23,642. It will be observed that
this does not include their stragglers, die number
of whom is said by citizens i here to be large.
It may be safely concluded, therefore, that the
.Rebel army lost at least SOjtOOof their best troops
during their campaign in Maryland.
: Prom the time our troops first encountered the
[enemy'in Maryland until lib was driven back into
[Virginia, we captured 13 guns, 7 caissons, 9 lim
bers, 39 colors and 1 signal flag.
We have not lost a single gun or color. On the
battle-field of Antietam 14,000 small arms were
[.collected, besides the large number carried off by
citizens and those distributed on the grounds to
the recruits and other unarmed men arriving im
mediately after the battle. 1
At South Mountain no collection of small arms
Was made, owing to the haste of the pursuit from
that point; 400 were taken on the opposite side of
the Potomac.

Major-Generel Commander.

Terrible Bailroad Accident.
Yesterday morning, about 7 o’clock, one of the
most terrible railroad accidents that has occurred
for many years, took place on the Cumberland
Valley Rarilrpad, just beyond the bridge over the
Susquehanna, and almost opposite the city.
It appears that a troop train, consisting of some
twenty freight cars, drawn by a single engine, and
having the 2ydi Regiment of Pennsylvania Militia
on board, was coming to this city from Greencnstle,
k small town near the border, where the regiment
had been encjamped for the past few days. The
train Was behind time, and had been waiting for
trains at Carlisle, hut none coming! the train
proceeded.
. The weather was very foggy, and it was with
the utmost difficulty that objects could lie discern
ed along the Itrack; but everything went on safely
until within about a half mile of the bridge, wheii
the train came sqddently in sight of an engine
standing on the track. The engineer of the troop
train immediately -reversed his engine, but too late
to prevent the collision, and the engines, came
together with; terrific force. The result was awfnl.
The forwardjear, Immediately behind the tender,
was crushed |nto fragments, and nearly all of its
occupants either killed or wonnded The second
car was driven into the first and badly damaged,
and a nombei •pf the inmates severely hurt. The
third car was • thrown oh top of the second, the
whaels crushing through the top. The remaining
care were not damaged. "*Xheengineisarc complete
wrecks.
Immediately after the accident two men were
sent np the ropd to woirn all approaching trains
and prevent a; second collision, which would have
proved far more disastrous than the first.
The scene presented by the wreck was such as
almost beggars the description of a hastily written
local paragraph. Inside the care could he seen
brave men struggling in the last gasp of death—
others writhing and imploring Heaven to end their
suffering—others again dead, crushed, mangled,
torn, without a single warning of the cause which
produced their end. So sudden was the crash,
that the loud and boisterous cheers of the soldiers, j ust
then approaching as they had reason to believe, the
last change of dire which were to carry them home,
where, os it were, instantly changed to the groan,
the stifled cry of pain, the yell of agony, and such
demonstrations as men only mnke who are sud
denly driven to despair and'terrihlo death.
As we got full view of the interior of the cars
and were able completely to comprehend the extent
of thedisaster, the heart fairly sickened at the sight.
We never desire to look on such a scene again.
The cries of those wonnded men still ring in our
ears; while the sight of the mangled and torn dead
will be a spectacle which it will be impossible to
dispel from our view for some time to come. The
wounded were al| carried to booses close bv, and
Surgeons sent for from Harrisburg. One of the
privates in the first Company of Revenue Guards,
a surgeon, rendered material assistance to some of
the wounded, and made them as comfortable as
possible, until more medical aid could arrive.
The results of (he accident are eight killed out
right, and over fifty wounded, some of them so
severely that they will most probably die.
The whole cause of the accident was careless
ness on the part Of an engineer of the Cumberland
Valley railroad. The Pennsylvania railroad,
which has the entire charge of the transportation
of troops, exercised all due cautiou. The shifting
engine ol the Cumberland Valley railroad, instead
of stopping at the bridge and inquiring the where
abouts of the troop train, passed on. and the col
lision was the result.— Harrisburg Tciei/rnith of'
the 21th nit.
Desperate Counterfeiter Captures at
Cleveland. —Oh .Tuesday last a man giving his
name as Joseph 11. Jones entered the banking
house of Messrs. Wasson, Kverett & Company,
Cleveland, Ohio, and asked to exchange $l,OOO
note of the bunk of Georgia for Treasury notes.
Mr. S. I. Kverett, the cashier, saw at once his cur
rency was spurious : but making no remark, whis
pered to a clerk to procure a policeman, and pro
ceeded at once to reckon the money. In a short
time officer Whitney arrived and arrested Jones.
The-two went away together, but on crossing Su
perior street. Jones drew a revolver and declared
that he would go no further. Whitney threw his
arm around the ruffian, and with the help of two
citizens succeeded in securing him. He was
safely lodged in jail, and assured the policeman
that he drew the revolver only to make a pres
ent of to him. Jones is from St. Cloud, Min
nesota, and is an old offender. The ready dex
terity of Mr. Everett thus secured one of the most
daring f counterfeiters now storming over the
country.
Singular Coincidence.—lt is a chbclis coin
cidence, well worthy of remark, that the recent
decisive battle fought by Gen. McClellan took
place on the 17th of September—the very day on
which, seventy-five years .ago, the Constitution of
the United States was signed and adopted. This
battle was fought on the one side for the preserva
tion of this invaluable instrument, which has con
ferred so many lasting bliessings on the human
race, and on the other for its destruction, with all
the benefits attendant upon it.
