■MOTHER COPPERHEAD OUTRAGE.—The Fulton
■"'Mtccwt, of the 16th inst, says that for the last
■ or three weeks a gang of Copperheads from
■iford and Fulton counties have congregated in
lip's Gap, h that county, from which they have
jhtly sallied Corth, stealing and destroying the
■perty of Union wen wherever they came across it.
"Saturday night lift inst,between 9&nd 10 o'clock,
arty of these home rebels made a descent upon
I premises of Mr. Henry Hull,iD Brush Creek tp.,
wfil knbwn Union man, and under the cover of
rsness, carried straw sufficient to surround all the
Pre of the barn, after which they set fire thereto,
i a matter of course, the barn, ami all its contents,
i-uding seven head of cattle, two horses and thirty
" p was totally destroyed. Owing to the terror of
" L nion inhabitants of the Cove, (some ten or
tlve families in all,) each and all of whom have
n repeatedly notified that they would be burned
t- no one of them would venture to the scene of
: fiagration, each feeling that by careful watching
iuld he protect his premises from the incen
ands of these rebel Vandals. During the fire
:es of the incarnate fiends were heard in aer
ation over the dastardly work of their hands,
i conceive of no act of more develish maligni

rity toward poor dumb brutes, than the above,
ill is over 72 years old, and after giving one
acrifice to Slave-breeding Treason, is thus

LIEUT. JOHN NELSON.—WO take great pleasure in
being able to chronicle the unconditional release of
our friend and fellow citizen, Lieut. John Nelson,
who returns to his distressed family after an absence
of six months, during which time he has been sub
jected to confinement in Old Capitol Prison, Wash
ington, D. C.
We are at a loss to understand what the charges,
were, that, for so long a time, deprived him of his
liberty, but feel asstred that tbe punishment inflict
ed upon him, has been more than commensurate
with all the harm he has directly, or indirectly,
committed. Lieut. Nelson has. for a long time,
lived among us, quietly pursuing his avocation of
miller, to obtain a support for his large family. In
the earlier part of the present unhappy war, he en
listed under the flag of his country, and how well
and faithfully he served, a broken shoulder and mis
sing leg bear silent, but painful, testimony. He no w
returns to us again to enter upon bis former busi
ness. We bespeak in his behalf a cordial support
from the community in which he has gone to reside.
His reputation as an excellent miller, is well estab
lished. He has in his a silver medal,
awarded him by the Pennsylvania State Agricultural
Society, in 1860 ; when some fourteen of the best
mills in ihe State were in competition with him ;
also, the premium of the Blair county exhibition in
1855; ana the one granted at the exhibition of Bed
ford county, in 1860.
We print these commendatory words, because
Lieut. Nelson has been unfortunate and has claims
upon our sympathy that canuot be resisted, and we
hope others will regard his case iu a similar sight.
Bedford Gazette.
An article, word for word like the above, was of
fered to us last week for publication. We declined
to publish it, because the facts in the case were not
I given. The reader of the above is expected to be
lieve that the charges upon which Lieut. Nelson was
arrested were not known to him —probably concealed
by the Government, in the oppressive exercise of its
lawless tyranny. This we thought was asking too
much, since it was so notorious to every body in
this community, that Lieut. Nelson was arrested
and kept in confinement on a charge of passing
counterfeit money in the army. We hope these
charges have been proved groundless, as would seem
from the circumstance of his discharge.—We are
sure we wish him all success in his present calling ;
but must remind him in the most friendly feeling,
that though, we may sympathize with him in his
misfortunes, we can not undertake to shield him
from the consequences of alleged misconduct by
charging, without proof, injustice upon others to
wards him.
John S. Stuckey of the 138 th has re
ceived an honorable discharge from the army, and
returned home in this county. The Captain has seen
gome pretty rough service, and comes off with the
loss of a leg.
