COAL OIL AND ITS DANGERS.—The
House of Representatives has consid
ered and passed an act appointing In
spectors of Coal Oil in each county,
not exceeding three in number. Dur
ing the discussion many interesting
facts were elicited. Mr. Shannon read
a letter from Pittsburg declaring that
the mere fact of oil being over forty
five degrees of gravity was not a sail'.
Tient test of its safety. Very often
there is more benzoic or explosive mat
ter in low than in high oils. The fluid
which caused the death of Mrs. Gra
ham and two children, at Crestline,
Ohio, was scarcely forty-five degrees,
yet it was like gunpowder, and would
ignite before the match touched it. A
true test is by fire—to place a small
quantity in a saucer, then light a match
and place it in the oil. If ignition
takes place it will be unfit for use. An
oil manufactured in this way, may be
43, 45, 48 or 50 degrees, anZ.I yet be as
harmless as water. One of the estab
lishments in Pittsburg makes oil of 46
and 50 degrees, and not a drop leaves
the works without being heated to 100
degrees, and then tried by fire. Oil
may be 43 degrees in gravity, and if
20 drops of benzoic are put in a gallon
it will explode as soon as the tempera
ture in the lamp or can reaches 00 or
70; the benzoic, will then rise to the
top and become a deadly gas.
The House refused to require the
test by fire to be made by the Inspec
tors, but depended solely on the gravi-

`WINCHESTER, VA. ; Mardi 28
DEAR GLOBE :—As we have sonic
little interest hi preserving this Union,
and as the 110th has made their mark
by showing themselves to be fighting
boys in thQ engagement near Kerns
town on Sunday, 23d inst. We spare
DO pains in speaking of such boys, for
well worthy are they of praise. As
our friends may be anxious to obtain
the particulars of the fight we will en
deavor to give them the best we can.
On' Sunday morning cannonading
was plainly heard at our camp, and
about nine o'cloek the troops were or
dered to move forward immediately
through Winchester, in order to meet
the enemy of some 12,000 and only
7,000 on our side. They were met
near Kerntown, and about four P. M.,
the infantry commenced firing, being
about two hundred yards distant, and
the enemy being behind a stone wall
and a rock brake. Most of our men
went up through the wood-. The fi
ring lasted some two hours, at which
time a charge was ordered on our side.
The 110th, being on the right, was
thrown out into an open field, in or
der to draw the enemy's fire; they
did it nobly, and waded up through
the field in front of the stone wall—
losing some eight or ten men and a
goodly number of ()titers were wound
ed. Several regiments, coming up in
front, were pretty badly cut up. The
84th Penna., coining in on the left, and
right of the enemy, charging upon a
battery, was badly cut up, losing their
Colonel the first man. lam unable to
name any of the 81th, except Colonel
Murray and Captain Gallaher, that
were killed. When the charge was
made the enemy fled, at which time
our men cut them down on every side,
taking some four or five cannons and
quite a number of small arms. Our
loss does not exceed one hundred killed
and three hundred wounded, while
that of the enemy was about seven
hundred killed and wounded in all,
with the prisoners about one thousand
were missing. Out of Captain Ben
ncr's company none were killed and
only three wounded, namely : William
Ramsey—Orderly Sergeant, Jacob K.
Hooper and John Marlin. I cannot
speak as regards other companies, nut
learning the number killed in each.
On Monday morning I viewed the
battle ground, and, let me say, it was
a scene never to be forgotten. While
walking over our side, I wonted fifty
dead on the ground, of different regi-i
ments ; a goodly number had been to
ken away. - We passed on to the
rebel side, and walked over the ground
until I counted 123 (lead, nearly all of
whom were shot in the head, as they
had their heads above the stone wall
and above rocks. I came to one that
was wounded and gave him a drink of
water. Becoming tired I did not go
to near all the dead, but left the ground
and followed on to Strasburg and bc
-yond some two miles, when our men
stopped. As the 34th and 110th had
done so nobly in the light, they were
sent back to Winchester, to guard the
town where Col. Lewis is commander;
so we will get a rest while the remain
der of Gen. Shields' division, the Gen
eral excepted—as he was wounded in
the arm,—and Ciencral Banks and a
part of his division, arc still in pursuit
of the enemy, in the direction of Rich
mond. The Old Jackson, who we have
been following ever since we first came
to lioncoek—from thence to Cumber
land, and on to Pawpaw, and thence
to Winchester, has been caught at last
and made to run faster than over.—
Jackson had said he would cat dinner
on Sunday in Winchester, heating
that nearly all the Union troops had
left the town ; gueSS he did not get his
dinner in town but bad to dine behind
the stone wall. lie would need dinner
on Monday, before he would stop.—
Nearly all the Union men killed were
sent home. The citizens buried the
Secesh. I have now given you the
particulars the best I can.
The boys are in good spirits and we
feel very thankful to the God of bat,-
tics that we still survive. Friend. Lew
is you have our thanks in sending us
the paper. Yours. &e.,

passage of the United States forces,
but we passed onward through the
town, the rebels frequently stopping
and throwing shells, to which we re
sponded with effect.
Gen. Banks pursued the rebels to

ment, Cu!. Wm. D. Lewis, Jr., called
at the Bulletin office. Ile has leave of
absence to attend to Lieut. Kochers
perger of Company L who was badly
wounded at the battle of Winchester,
and who is now at home in this city.
Lieut. Kochersperger behaved with
great lira\ cl . ‘ at Winchester.
Sergeant Whittingham, who is also
a resident of this city, was in the great
fight with Jackson and related some
interesting details. lie says that all
the companies of the One Hundred
and Tenth were in the battle except
Company G, which was guardmg the
railroad at Paw Paw tunnel. Colonel
Lewis led his command with great gal
lantry and daring. While executing
a flank movement, by which the rebels
were subsequently driven from their
stone wall and from their batteries in
the woods, Cu!. Lewis had his horse
shot under him. The event did not
appear to affect hint at all, for all
through the afternoon and evening he
fought 'on foot. The Lieut. Colonel
also acted with dauntless bravery, and
our informant scented to think that the
regiment had done as good fighting as
has been shown during the war. All
through the battle the One-hundred
and tenth obeyed implicitly, and
made every movement without wa
vering or flinching, and they feel
confident that the rebel Jackson will
not be anxious to meet them again.
The One Hundred and Tenth Las been
in service for a long time. It has ac
complished some very heavy marching
and much tedious labor. Until the
battle of Winchester they never had
a fair chance to show their mettle and
they certainly did prove it on this oc
casion.
Our informant speaks warmly - of the
daring of the Eighty-fourth l'enniiyl
vania and states that it deserves all the
praise which has been accorded it.
Mr. Mason in London.
Th, followin g is an extract from a
private letter, dated London, March
17th, 1862. The writer says:
A curious incident occurred the
other night, during the debate in the
Commons on the American blockade.
When Mr. Lindsay, in the course of
his speech, made sonic remarks not
complimentary to Mr. Seward, they
were received with some applause in
one part of the House, as was natural
enough; but a member on the non-ap
plausive benches was a little surprised
to hear an isolated loud exclamation of
approval. Turning instantly, ho saw
that it proceeded from an excited gen
tleman in the gallery. On inquiry, he
learned that the excited eloquent. of
Mr. Lindsay was :Mr. Mason, commis
sioner-in-waiting of the Conlbunthol
States of America. That a foreigner,
admitted to the House by courtesy,
should so far have forgotten the de
cencies and proprieties, has excited
not more surprise than indignation
among the members, as the story
spreads. But, I guess the gross
propriety of his rowdyism will be over
looked, if we sutler Jell'. Davis to re
main at Richmond. A few inure vic
tories on our part, and he will doubt
less retire of his owe accord, to " hide
his diminished clark."
The Fight Near Winchester—Scenes
On the Battle Field.
The special correspondent of' the
New York World, dated Winchester
March 27, gives the following account
of the scenes on.the late battle field:
No wonder Stone wall Jackson thinks
it was a desperate fight. I am in
formed, by one' of the staff of General
Shields, who has just returned from the
track of their retreat, that. as far as
he moved, the enemy's dead were
found strewn along the turnpike. For
twenty-fbur hours from the beginning
of the fight the enemy were burying
their dead. In one barn along the
road there had been left fifty, all but
eight of whom were buried. The es
timate of their loss is carefully made,
and is very nearly accurate without
doubt. Our own loss, as ascertained,
is 75 or 100 killed, and 150 wounded.
These will not receive much alteration.
I shall' send, by tb•morrow's mail; a
complete list of the killed and wound
ed of our own men; and some other
accurate details.
The scene of the conflict is terrible.
Civilians are generally prevented from
visiting it for the present. It is im
possible to describe the scene, so as to
give a realization of its ghastliness and
terror, which any one ought to blush
not to perceive while walking amid the
remnants of humanity which are scat
tered about. Bodies in all the fright
ful attitudes which a violent and un
natural death could produce,, stained
with blood, mangled and lacerated per
haps, often begrimed and black, lay
scattered here and there, sometimes
alniost in heaps
Some had crawled away when wound
ed to a comfortable place to die. Two
men lay almost covered with straw in
to which they had scrambled and lay
until death had released them. In the
woods through which our troops had
to pass to charge the rebels lie the
hugest number of our dead, and be
yond, on the other side of the wall
from behind which they poured their
volleys of balls at our men,large num
bers of the rebels lie, pierced in the
fba•ehead or thee as they rose above
their hiding place to shoot at the fed
crals. There is a peculiar ghastliness
ill the appearance of the enemy's dead.
Did not their dress distinguish them,
their faces would enable any one in
stantly to tell which were federals and
which were not. One would 'think
they 'were all Indians, so very dark
had they become from their exposure,
sleeping without tents as they did for
a long time at the beginning of the
war.
One who has not seen it cannot tell
what it is to see a battle field.
If there is anything more dreadful
it is a visit to the hospitals after a
battle.
In the Court House are placed a
large number of the wounded, our own
and the enemy's without diserimina
don, and in several places in town hos
pitals have been established since the
battle. It is difficult to compel one's
self to dwell long enough upon the
scenes witnessed there, of the dying
and dead, to give them a faithful de
scription. Surgeons and attendants
have been constantly , at labor, without
rest, in attending to the unfortunate
soldiers in the hospitals.
Yet, after all their efforts, it was long
before many of the wounded could be
properly- cared for and their wounds
properly dressed.
The court-room was filled with the
sufferers, lying upon the floor, so many
that it was difficult to pass about
among them. Among them was the
confederate Captain Jones, who bad
both eyes shot out, and whose face, coy
ered thickly with clotted blood, pre
sented the most repulsive and pitiable
sight which one could well behold.
Some, from loss of blood, were wan
and pale, and some, from the injuries
to the face, were swollen, distorted,
and discolored.
Some, indeed, were cheerful, and re
joicing that, while their comrades were
many of them so seriously injured,
their slight wounds would soon heal
and becalm honorable scars, testifying
their patriotism and loyalty. But the
majority of' those which I saw here
were dangerous wounds, and some
were to suffer amputation, and their
fellow-soldiers about them, suffering
from their own wounds, were obliged
to listen to their cries and groans, and
to hear the grating of the surgeon's
saw, a premonitor of their own hard
fate.
saw many in the agonies of death.
One, who was raised and seated halt
upright, haunts me now with his pale,
sorrowful countenance. He was al
most dead, and every moment would
raise his head, open his eyes, and stare
vacantly around, as if he would assure
himself that he had itot yet lost all the
sense of sight.
Here also lay some who had just
died, and as I passed through the hall,
a gray-haired guard, resting upon his
musket, with a solemn, grave counte
nance, was standing beside a number
of dead, in the attitude of a death
struggle, each with a paper pinned to
his clothing, stating the name, regi
ment, etc., of the deceased.

Negley's Pennsylvania Brigade in
Tennessee.
A letter, dated Nashville, _March
20th, to the Louisville Journal, says :
I understand Gen. Negley's Penn
sylvania Brigade will be left• behind to
garrison the city. Of this Ido not
speak positively. The citizens have . 1
pressed Gen. Buell to make this dispo
sition of the brigade, and I fancy from
some movements that it will be done.
The brigade has been detached froin
Gen. NeCook's division. Con. Negley
has made himself highly popular from
the manlier in which he has carried
out the general order of General Buell
to respect the rights of private proper
ty, and hence his popularity the

week near his house, and when he left
no signs of the encampment marred
the beauty of his farm, the General is
not predisposed to remain in statu quo,
but it is not improbable that the wish
es of the citizens and not his own de
sires will be acceded to. Ladies who
make mouths and cast vituperation
from their pretty lips will have to learn
to behave themselves or keep in doors.
The General is not such a ladies' man
as to stand all the insults which the
"fair rebels' oast upon our men.—
Theselnsults are of various styles, and
one which 'appears - to have been very
studied is said to have been offered' to
Gen. T. L. Crittenden. The story is
told that as Crittenden was standing
on the sidewalk, near the post-office,
two splendidly dressed ladies, followed
by a dirty, slovenly, and black negro
wench, approached him. As they
passed him they put their handker
chiefs to their noses, and gracefully
drew their skirts aside from contact
with his suit of Lincoln " blue. The
negro wench followed the example,
and passed by, leaving the astonished
General looking after the party with
amazement. Gen. Negley, I imagine,
would, if he had been in command at
Nashville, have sent a guard after the
ladies, who would have hail orders to
follow them home, allow them to en
ter it, and then stand guard at the
door, allowing no one egress until the
ladies promised to behave themselves.
He has just such quiet and sainmary
ways of proceeding in suit eases.—
The ladies give a great deal of trouble
here. One old gentleman' begged his
daughters to leave town, wind insisted
there was danger when 'our troops
took possession, but the ladies -have
not been induced to depart.
Gen, Sigel—An Incident atPeaßidge.
Mr. J. A. Cleaveland, attached.te the
quarter=master's department of the
Twenty-second Illinois Regiment; - fur
nished to the Lafayette (Ind.) Courier
a description of the battle at Pea Ridge,
in which he was an active participant.
lie mentions the following incident:
t a council of war, in which Curtis,
Jeff. C. Davis, and Sigel participated,
the commanding gensral spoke de
spondingly of the prospect, . and inti
mated that a surrender was inevitable,
whereupon Sigel remarked, with start
ling emphasis : " Mine friend ! mine
friend! give Me Davis and de command,
and I will show von who has do field
in three hours."
Davis was earnest for fight to the
bitter end, and Curtis gave to un
derstand that Gen. Sigel should have it
all his own way. The - responsibility
of the subsequent movements, and the
glory of the next achievements, really
belong to him.
Another correspondent gives the fol
lowing anecdote of the same general:
On the return of Gen. Fremont's
army from the Southwest, Sigel com
manded the division that came by Leb
anon to Rolla. A. few miles this side
of Lebanon the army encamped over
night on the farm of a man who was
in sympathy with the rebellion, and
his fence-rails were all burned for fire
wood, and his farm stripped of what
ever was useful and necessary to sub
sist the troops and horses of the train.
In the morning the farmer came with
a large bill of damages, - and asked for
payment. The quartermaster came to
General Sigel to know what should be
done about it. Col. Warmoth was
present, and the Cieneral asked hint
whether the man was a loyal citizen.
The Colonel replied that he was a con
ditional Union man at first, but that
he had afterward sympathized with
the rebellion. Turning to the quarter
master general, Sigel then replied,
"Mr. Quartermaster, then you sympa
thize with the Government." It is
hardly necessary to add that the Se
eesh filmier did not obtain what he
came for.
