Wt&. The Board of Relief will meet
at the Commissioners' Office on Satur
day next, at which time it is hoped ail
who have business connected with the
subject of relief, or otherwise interest
ed are invited to attend, not with mere
talk, but with satisfactory evidence of
real or fancied wrongs. For the in
formation of all, we state that until
otherwise directed by the board, no
application will be received unless ac
companied by a certificate or other
evidence that the soldier in whose be
half relief is claimed, whether new re
cruit or re-enlisted veteran, is credi
ted to Mifflin county at la rye, or to some
other district in said county. The recep
tion of a local bounty in the county is
no impediment to relief, but from any
other quarter it is.
Visitors to Swain's variety storo
will notice a photographic picture of a
lady, with the mark of a ball through
it on one side. It was taken from the
body of a rebel soldier, who was killed
at the battle of Fredericksburg.
Whether his wife, sister, or intended
bride, is unknown, but no matter
which, any one can imagine what a
sad memento that portrait with its fa
tal mark would be to her who owns its
features. Perhaps like many fiery
southern natures she urged him on to
that career which has been to him the
last of earth, and is now a despairing
woman j or, still clinging to the old
flag of her country, she saw him take
arms against it with bitter tears of re
gret. Oh! the woo and desolation
brought on thousands of hitherto hap
py homes, by the Davis's, Yancys, Wises,
and other traitors, are truly deserving
a punishment tenfold greater than that
meted out to ordinary criminals.
WgL. Lieut. Swain, of company B.
49th regiment, we learn has re-enlisted
58 veterans, a greater number proba
bly than any other company. The
Xieut, has been the actual commander
since the death of Capt. Freeburn.
Col. J. P. Taylor, Ist Pa. Cavalry,
is now on a visit home. We also
notice quite a number of other officers
.and soldiers at home on furlough.
■A. A letter from S. J. Baptist, for
merly of this place, dated Uayti, 23d
January, states that they are now do
ing well, and have a considerable crop
of cotton on hand, which is selling at
high prices. Their hard times he
thinks are over. White people he
aays are held in great respect in Hay ti.
•guThe Logan Guards arrived here
en Saturday last, and were received by
an immense crowd at the railroad,
•which escorted them to town, nnder
the direction of Col. Mathews, J. P.
Hamaker, C. M. Shull, J. Swan, and
S. B. Marks, as marshals. Followed
by the officers of the Borough, Fire
Company, ke. they marched through
the principal streets, under the com
mand of Lieut. C. Selhoimer, and were
then welcomed at the Court House by
Hev. J. Guyer. In the evening they
partook of a sumptuous supper provi
ded by Major Eisenbise, which was
got up in his usual good taste. This
veteran company has seen hard ser
vice, but their healthy appearance
ahows that they can easily endure in
the future what has been borne in the
past; and their re-enlistment proves
as they were among the first to take
up arms, they are determined to see
the glorious old flag restored over every
foot of rebeldom.
There was recently taken from
the Henderson Hose, Hook and Lad
der company a rope about 30 feet long,
with a piece of chain attached Any
person returning the same, or giving
information of its whereabouts will
receive the thanks of the company.
BouWe have been again so complete
ly overwhelmed with job work during
the past week, that we have had but
little leisure to attend to the Gazette.
Although half a dozen are now on file,
we are ready to do all that come to
hand, with unrivaled neatness and dis
patch.

Correspondence of the Gazette.
CAMP PAROLED PRISONERS, 1
New Orleans, Feb. 1,'64. }
Mr. Editor: —l have been thinking
for Borne time past that a few lines
from me might be interesting to some
of the readers of the Gazette. Being
in an Indiana regiment, I cannot find
so many matters of interest as I could
were I in a Pennsylvania one. A.s I
have written home of the trials expe
rienced while I was in the hands of the
rebels, 1 will pass by that and write
about things of recent occurrence. The
notice published in the local column of
your paper of the 9th January, stating
that I was in Parole Camp in this city,
was the cause of me finding some of
my old Lewistown friends: Among
them were Capt. Mark and lady, John
Clark, esq., and Messrs. Holder Cora
fort and Harry C. McCoy. Captain
Mark, of the Quartermaster's Depart
ment, though previously unacquainted
with him, I found to be strictly a gen
tleman, and a man of good business
habits, and in the position he occupies
wields a vast influence. I received a
cordial welcome from both him and his
lady, and cannot pass them by without
returning thanks for their kindness.
John Clark, esq., who is Superintendent
of the Government wagon and carriage
repairing establishment, is also here.
He is, properly speaking, the right
man in the right place, i nd does all
his work well, a fact that all persons
in Lewistown well know. He looks
well, and seems to like the city very
much. The next on the list are
Messrs Comfort and McCoy, both wor
thy young men having good business
qualities, and who are clerking for
Capt. Mark. They appear to like it
very much, although they are kept ve
ry busy. They are good clerks, and
merit the position they occupy. I was
considerably surprised to find Lewis
town so well represented in the Cres
cent City.
It is evident that a new, and I may
add, a better time is approaching for
the people ol this State. They are
about to enter upon an election which
will tell largely either for the weal or
woe of the State. It is generally be
lieved that it will result largely for the
good of it, at least everybody seerr s
to hope so. The people seem very de
sirous to have control of their own af
fairs, and are using every means attain
able to accomplish that end. The
nomination of candidates to fill the
various State offices comes off soon,
and will doubtless result in good
j staunch Unionists being chosen. Ev
| ery thing is being done that can be pre
liminary to the forming of the State
organization. Wisdom and good feel
ing seem to pervade all assemblages,
and such proceedings adopted as will
be for the greatest good to the State.
Considerable sagacity will doubtless be
used in the selection of candidates for
the important stations. The day is
dawning, a new life is opening, and
soon I predict that Louisiana will be
numbered as one of the stars—once
gone, now returned, repented, and full
forgiveness given. Let Louisiana come
back, and in quick succession several
others will follow. There is no doubt
but Louisiana will come in with her
Constitution so revised as to abolish
that curse, slavery. Most of those
proposed to fill the offices aro free state
men. Hon. Michael Habn, editor of
the True Delta, is spoken of for Gover
nor of the State.
The following, which appeared in
the Era a few weeks since, should, if
untrue, receive the proper denial. If
true, it is a shame for the people of
Gettysburg, and should be placed in
some conspicuous place, that the world
at large might see and learn for them
selves. Any person who would do
such a trick has not a spark of human
ity about them; if they ever had, it
has all vanished. I hope that for the
benefit of the State at large, the arti
cle is false in reference to selling water
to soldiers i
Pennsylvania appears, through her repre
sentatives in the national Congress, asking to
be reimbursed for helping to repel the inva
sion of her own soil. We did not know but
that Pennsylvania came out of that affair
whole, pecuniarily on account of the revenue
derived by her rural citizens in selling SUN*
quehanna water to the thirsty heroes of Get
tysburg. Those fellows were terribly dry.
and must have consumed the aqueous fluid
regardless of expense. It is not strange that
this proposition was met by Fernando Wood
with the suggestion that as New York assisted
Pennsylvania, she was entitled to a pro rata
benefit from the national treasury, or that
Mr. Rogers wanted New Jersey included in
the little arrangement.
Yours, &c.,
CIIAS. E. THOMAS.
[The above is no doubt a libel on the
people ot the lower counties, though
some copperheads may have been guil
ty of the meanness. The writer how
ever displays his ignorance when he
talks of Susquehanna water, which
was more than forty miles from the
scene of conflict.]
A Letter from Annapolis.
The following is an extract of a let
ter from Abram Cash, received from
Annapolis, and published in the New
ville Valley Star, giving an aecount of
the funeral ceremonies according to
the rites of the Greek Church at the
burial of a Russian sailor belonging to
the fleet, who was lately murdered at
that place:
"On last Saturday I witnessed the fu
neral of a Russian sailer who was shot by
a citizen of this place. The services were :
according to the Greek Church, and as it
is a new thing among us I propose to give
you a brief description of it The cere- j
monies were of the most solemn and itn- !
posing character, and took place in the
chapel of the naval school The body
was placed in a neat walnut coffiin in the j
centre ot the chapel. On the left were '
the ltuseian officers, and some officers of
our army and navy, while on the right
were the sailors of the vessel to which he
belonged. A cho ; r picked lrnm the Rus
sian sailors, chanted the "Office for the
Dead," which was led by Greek Priest
dressed in the robes and vestments of the
Greek Church. lie wore a large black
cloak reaching to the ground, over his
shoulders was thrown a green silk mantle
which reached to his knees, around the
edge of which was a broad gold border,
and in the centre was a large golden cross.
On his head he wore a hat made of rich
velvet, in the form of a stove pipe hat,
without a brim, in his hand he carried a
censer. The choir chanted for about half'
an hour, when mass for the dead was said, !
during which the priest performed the
ceremony of granting absolution; he walk
ed several times around the coffin sprink
ling it with holy water and incensing it,
and reciting prayers for the dead. After
this, he read aloud in the Russian language
from a small strip of paper; this he placed
in the right hand of deceased, laid it upon
his breast, the priest then kissed the hand
of the body and all the officers and sailors
did the same, many of them making the
sign of the cross and bowed to the floor
and kissing it before touching the body;
tbia was very affecting, many of the sail
ors shedding tears. After they formed in
mourniul procession : first came a Russian
sailor bearing the lid ot the coffin on his
head, then came six sailor boys marching
in two ranks, one boy was a few yards in
advance of the rest bearing a small box,
with a glass top, in which was a silver im
age, which I suppose was that of our Sa
vioar; next came the coffin upon a bier,
borne upon the shoulders of four sailors,
a cross of ivory lay upon the breast of the
deceased and the coffin was covered with
the Russian flag. After the coffin, came
the Priest and choir which chanted a
mournful dirge every few minutes; next
came the band composed of Russians which
also played a solemn d rge; then came a
body ot Russian mariners; then came
Union soldiers and citizens At the grave
they prayed and chanted psalms, when
they again took leave of the body, this
time kissing the face. A cross was placed
upon the breast of the deceased, a spade
full of dirt sprinkled in the coffiin, the lid
screwed on, and the remains lowered to
their final resting-place. As I tuned
from the grave, I thought here is anoth
er victim of intemperance Murder
ed by a man who first sold him whiskey
and then shot him. The people and sol
diers here threateu to lynch his murderer.
A. CASH.
—lt is reported in the South Afri
can Mail that Dr. Livingstone, the
great explorer, whose fame belongs to
the whole world, has been murdered
bj- the native Makololos on Lake
Nyassa. We are glad to observe that
the report needs confirmation.
—Two soldiers on guard were re
cently found murdered in St. Peters
burg. It was suggested that the eyes
of the murdered soldiers should be
immediately photographed, in the hope
of successfully testing the discovery
recently made, when, to the surprise
of ail, the result was the production of
the portraits of two soldiers of the
private guard at the palace, on whose
breasts were the insignia of the Cross
of St. George. The murderers were
at once sought out and apprehended.
