to learn that the gentleman whose name
heads this item, was killed in one cf the
late battles in front of Washington, Mr.
Neff had only been in the army a short
ume, and his untimely death will bring sor-
row to the hearts of his friends. We heard
i intimated, out it may be only an idle ru-
wor that Mr. Neff met his death vot by the
bulicts of the enemy, but through the mal. |
ico of one of his own comrades—a violent i
abolitionist —on account of the too free ex
pression of his Democratic sentiments, who
shot him stealthily, andin the most cow
ardly and inhuman manner. We sincerely
tiust that this report is nat true, for we
can hardly conceive how so much depravity
could exist in the human breast, We would
much rather be assured that Mr. Nell’ had
fallen by the hands of the common enemy,
than that he should have met his
through the infamous and cowardly treach
ery of one of his own comptnions in arms,
whose demon-like nature would fit him on
ly to be the associate of © Devils and damn-
wl souls.”
Mr. Neff was an occasional correspondent
of the Watchman, and wrote us several lei
ters from the Potomac anny, over the signa
turc of *“ Union.” Mis letters were always
interesting and pleasing, and we much re.
gret the sad occurrence thai has deprived us
of the benefit of his welcome epistles.
