I believe weliave fallen into a den of thieves and mur derers." I bad been slumbering uneasily for nearly an hour, and hadjust become thoroughly awakened when Mr. Les lie entered my room cautiously, and addressed cue in this singular man , ner. I had that day chanced to fall in with an elderly gentleman, (Mr: Les lie by name) and his daughter Ger trude, an interesting young lady of nearly eighteen ; and as our routes lay in the same direction ; we were natur. ally agreed to accompany each other. We had stopped .at the roadside innt Our acwmtriedation was much more ample than I had stipposed post Bible from' the externalappearance of the dwelling, and much to our satis faction we were' furnished with sepa , rate rooms, though all in the low chamber at the top of the house. The apartment allottal to myself was a small one, furnished with a handsome bed with heavy green cur tains, a iightstamd, acouple of chairs. Everything was in perfect keeping and, good order ; but the bed Was.plae ed against the door, greatly to my astonishment. "What have you discovered P' I asked hastily. . He gave me a.soiled piece of paper on which were rudely inscribed these words "Jim saw three travelers coming over the old road an hour. ago.

We engaged in a short conversa tion.as to the course we had, better pursue, and then without arriving at any conclusion, I left the father and daughter alone for a few moments while / cautiously descended the stairs. Having gained the hall be low, I stole through a long narrow passage I bad not before observed, and at last came to the door of an apartment, in which I kneAr the fhiti= ly of our host, together with our would-be-murderers, were assembled.

The very instant you hear the report of my pistol s you, and Jim must be at hand to enter the old man's room and take care of him." "But when will this come off "At twelve, they will be sleeping most soundly then," It wanted just thirty .minutes of the hour appointed, and I hastened to retrace my steps up stairs. I visited my own room first, where I found that the convenient fixture I had heard spoken of below was mere ly a small square hole in the wall, just opposite the pillow, sufficiently. large enough to insert the barrel of any moderate sixed pistol—a very easy way:to - relieve a man of his life. Having made this discovery, I sought Mr. Leslie and his daughter. 6 ;l' was about to, propane ; that each one of us should keep his own apartment. If we meet them to gether while Seyton has his pistol at hand, one of us will .be sure to get killed. On the contrary, should I manufacture a good counterfeit ; as 1 now propose, to occupy my plane for, the time being in that rather danger ous bed ; and in this manner waste Seyton's shot and throw him off his guard, I am very sure I could gain the mastery in a hand to hand strug gle in a very few minutes, and then come to your assistance, Does my proposition suit you)"' "Perfectly, and. lucky for your scheme, I wear a wig, which may be of considerable benefit to you in mak ing the counterfeits of which you have spoken. Take it ; it is entirely at your disposal." It took hut a very few moments to fill the wig sufficiently With bed clothes, and arrange it in a favora ble position on the pillow, in front of the little opening , Having done this, glanced at my Watch in the moon. beams. It wanted .five minutes of twelve 1 U. B. STEWART. Administrator The silence was growing oppres sive, when at last 1 saw the curtain move aside a little: There was a loud report, and I had resolution nough to bond forward and utter a low despairing moan, as the report died away. In an instant the door was opened, and the man called Sey , ton came running in, with his pistol still in his band. Without the faint est suspicion ho approached the bed, but meanwhile I had grasped a long ; heavy bar of wood, which 1 presume, by the merest chance ; happened to be standing against the wall,near by, and when be had arrived within a convenient distance, I sprung out up on him, and with a single well di rected blow I laid him sprawling, and I judged insensible, on the floor. All this had occupied but a mo ment, and it was scarcely completed when I board the report of 'another fithrffisimini. 114 E OLD WAYSIDE INN. Tom SEYTON."

Now all that remained for mo to do to render our situation quite se cure was, to take from our hostesS the power to harm as in any way, and I at once started below for that purpose. I afterward learned that Mr. Leslie had made his daughter promise ; after my departure, to remain quietly in her own apartment until .she could safely venture forth, and stationed himself near the door, with the only pistol he ever carried in his band.— By Borne mistake our host and Jim 'did not attaelc him as soon as the pistol was fired at my counterfeit by Seyton, as was •first intended . but" waited a moment. When they did present themselves be had fired at the one in advance ; who happened to be the host, and immediately grap pled with the other. We remained at the old inn the re mainder of the night, and gave infor mation to the authorities in, the morning: 'RESENT CONDITION OF THE SIAMESE TWINS, The Siamese twins have been lost from public view for the last few years. It was _well known of them that they bad married two sisters, and settled down near Salisbury, in Forth Carolina on a well stocked a North Carolina medical gentleman • now within our lines, we bad the oth er day an opportunity of minute and full particulars in regard to them.— Ever since the war began, they have continued to reside on their planta tion, and lived in the same quiet and harmony as ever Until within two years. Of course no ono ever thought of drafting them, and their negroes prospered, except that when out of temper from any cause, it was apt to work itself off in striking the first one that came to hand, from which the best escape was to keep out of the way. The brothers probably never would have had any difficulty but. that their wives, though sisters ; turned away their hearts, and °l 11. dren were the eause of this estrange ment. Up to the period that each had five children all prospered well enough ; but one of them had a sixth, and this awoke envy and jealousy to such a degree that the two sisters, not be ing bound together like the twin brothers, would no longer live under the same roof ) though we believe, still in different houses on the same plantation. The brothers are now it seems, about fifty years of age ; but one, we believe the smaller and fee. bier of the two ; looks, it is said, now fully ten years older than the other: They can turn back to back or face to face, but that is as far as the re markable bond that unites them per mits. It is'almost certain that should either die the other could not survive even for more than a few minutes, as there is an artery as large as the fm moral artery that connects them. A few years since they correspond ed with some of the leading surgical operators in London, as to the possi bility of the umbilicus which unites them being cut, so that in case of the death of one, the life of the other might be saved. At the request of the London Surgeon, they visited that city, and many experiments were tried to determine the safety of such an operation. Among other things, a ligature was tied firmly for a few minutes round the connexion between them, so as to prevent the circulation of blood through the ar tery: But it seemed as if each would eXpire if this were longer persisted in. Thesmaller of the two fainted away and lost all consciousness, and there were symptoms that the same effect Would follow to the other; but that the process could not be continued long enough without endangering the life of him who was first to faint. Should the smaller and feebler die ' it might be worth while making the experiment of operating, but the prospects of prolonging the life of the other Would be very Should however the larger and more healthy of the twin brothers die, there would seem absolutely no hope of saving the feebler of the tWo. From all this it is evident, that though the connection between these two brothers is very remarkable and perfectly unique, is yet not so ab solute as has been usually supposed.

VANDALISM OF OUR TROOPS IN COLUMBIA. The eitieCitil Correspondent or the New York Herald gives the follow= ing account of the disgraceful con= .duct of a portion of our troops on the occupation of Columbia,l spent the evening iii the Capitol looking oVer the archieves and ries. Part of Colonel Stone's brigade —I think the Thirteenth lowa. Col. Kennedy's regiment -= were on duty there. Col. Stone and Col. Kennedy had earned an enviable fame in being the first to hoist the flag of freedom over Colurnhia; Coming bn night, crowds of our es , caged prisoners, soldiers and ttegFrOeS i intoxicated with their rieW born lib= erty, which they looked upon as li= cense to do as the pleased, were pa , rading the streets in groups. As soon as night set in there etiz sued a sad scene indeed, The suburbs were first set on fire, some assert by the burning cotton which the rebels bad piled along the streets. Pillag= ing, gangs soon fired the heart of the town, then entered the houses, in many instances carrying off articles of value. The flame soon burst out in all parts of the city, and'the streets were quickly crowded with helpless women and children—some in their night-clothes. Agonized be dragged from their beds, and lay exposed to the flames and smoke that, swept the streets, or to the -eOld of the open air in back - yards. The scene at the Convent was sad one indeed. The flames were fast encompassing the Convent, and the Sisters and about sixty terrified young ladies huddledtogetber . on the streets. Some of these had come from the North, previous to the war, for their education, and were not able to return, The Superioress of the Convent had educated General Sher= man's daughter, Minnie, He had as= sighed them a special guard of sit men, so they felt secure-, and were totally unprepared for the dreadful scene that ensued. Some Christian people formed a guard around this agonized group of ladies and conduct ed them to the park; 'toward Morning General who lay encamped, outside the town, hearing of the sad state of affairs, or dered Col. 011iner and his brigade to clear out the city and restore order at the point 'of the bayonet. This they did, taking a couple hundred of prisoners., bayoneting some and kill ing one. Though Razen has proved himself a true and tried soldier on many a battle field, such an act does more credit to his heart than a victor ry over the enemy. Several officers too, ventured their lives in this chari table attempt to restore order.. Col, York, of General Logan's staff, was fired at while thus engaged. It is to regretted that the ,burning of the city was accompanied by many riotous scenes. Sherman and his venerals are very much hurt about it, as it Was quite against their orders. The negeoes and escaped prisoners were' infuriated, and easily incited the inebriated soldiers to join them in their work of vandalism. Governor McGrath and Gen. Wade Hampton are partly accountable for the de struction of their city, General Beauregard, the Mayor, Mr. Good Win and others wanted to send a deputa tion as far as Orangeburg to surren der the city, and when evacuating to destroy all the liquors. In both of these Wise views they Were overruled by the Governor and Wade Hanipton —the latter stating that he would de- fend the town from house to house.
