Gen. Buckland’s old regiment, en route home, and
a detachment of cavalry from Gen. Grierson’s
command, had arrived at Memphis, bringing
forty-five prisoners, among them a rebel captain.
Much dissatisfaction existed among the Mississippi
troops, who were rapidly deserting,. caused by
speculations in cotton by the rebel Generals For
rest, Chambers, Ferguson, Richardson, and
others, which they state is being taken from rebel
soldiers’ wives by Ecouts detailed for that purpose,
and who run the blockade at Memphis, and bring
sack greenbacks and divide the profltswith the

Jyashingto?.’, Peb. 25.— 1 t is understood that
telegrams have been sent from this city stating
that the Secretary of the Treasury proposes to

to-day is intended to authorize the issue of
bonds redeemable after five years, and uav

the Secretory -will probably offer an issue of five
per cent, bonds, redeemable after ten and payable
infor£ years from date. The bill is also intended
to authorize the issue of bonds for the excels of
subscriptions to the live-twenty loan. This ex

An Extraordinary Story. —The Trumpet,
published at Elizabeth town, in this county, re
lates the following story as a “ singular phe
nomenon.” It is, certainly, very singular if
true—whereof, we' beg leave respectfully to
record.onr gentle suspicions: “An unnatural
phenomenon took place in Rapho township,
three miles east of Mount Joy on Thursday
last, at the residence of Martin Inly. His
daughter, aged 18 years, died a quarter before
8 o’clock. After the usual ceremonies were
attended to, towards morning the attention of
the mother was drawn to the corpse, when
she discerned something unusual on the lips of
the deceased; attempting to remove it, appar
ently a voice seemed to say, let it remain.-
Astonishment caused an examination, arid the
fact was there appeared in the middle of the
lips .and teeth a complete rose bud .ready to
open, and on the left 'side of. the bud a full
bloomed rose (whaHlorists call a double levy
rose). - On close examination it was ascer
tained that the bud and rose were a hard sub
stance to the touch, and in appearance like
ivory. If was perceptible that from the first
and last nights of the phenomenon it enlarged.
Thoughts were entertained that' the removal of
the body to the burying ground (which was in
a hearse and over a mile of rough road) might
cause a separation, but the bud and rose still
remained as when first seen, only increased
perceptibly in size. The rose and bud was as
white as ivory, and supposed equally as hard.
Many persons were eye witnesses of the last.
The rose was very natural, and those not know
ing the fact, felt satisfied that it was a natural
rose and bud, placed there as an ornament; and
reports caused many to witness the fact. The
disease of the deceased, was measles; relapse
took place attended with a cold, which caused
her death.” —Lancaster Express.
The Scarcity or Laborers.— For the last
year or two, since the country has been so
thoroughly drained of men for the war, there
has been a great scarcity of laborers. Farmers
have not been able to get half enough to put in
or harvest their crops; and in every kind of
mechanical business there has been the great
est difficulty in getting operatives, and those
who are obtained, even the most unskilled, will.
work only for the "highest .wages. This lack
of laborers is likely ,to be still more serious
the coming season than ever before,
and it is becoming a grave question how,
with so many men gone and going to the
war, the industry of the country is to be carried
on. The supply of laborers’by immigration is
not sufficient to meet the increased demand,and
unless some systematic effort is made to. get
workmen,our manufacturing, and especially our
agricultural interests, are likely to suffer se
verely.
In this emergency why not look to Canada for
a stock of laborers 1 The supply is greatef
there than the demand, increased by crowds
of cowards who have fled ftiere to avoid
military service, and wages are low. The
prospect of steady work add higher wages
would induce many of the Canadians to emi
grate to the States, if the facts could be put
before them arid some suitable effort made.
The Canadians are more intelligent, better na
tured and more valuable workmen in every
respect than the Irish, notwithstanding that
the latter want a small fortune for their
services, continued for any length of time.
"We don’t want to invade Canada, but if
an aimv of Canadian, laborers would invade
New England they would meet with a warm
reception. The women may come too, and
would find abundant employment in the
factories and kitchens while their brothers
were at work in the shop or on the firm
Springfield Republican.
Accidents in British Coat, Mines The
collected reports made by the Inspectors of
Mines to-the Home Secretary on the year 1862
have oriTy just been published. They show
that no less than 1,133 lives were dost by coal
mine accidents in Great Britain in that year,
and 105 in ironstone* mines. In 1861 the lives
lost by accidents in coal mines were only 913,
but the year 1862 saw several accidents of un
usual fatality—47 persons, were killed bv an ex
plosion at Cethin Colliery, near. Merthyr; 59
persons by another at Edmund’s Main Collierv,
near Barnsley; and, most terrible of all, 209
persons at Hartley Colliery. This last calamity
wifi long be remembered, if only for the extra
ordinary sympathy excited throughout the
kingdom, resulting in contributions (for the
nnn, the sufferers to an amouiitrexceed
lng 80,0001.,—a sum which proved, in fact, far
* /S er than the reasonable requirements of the
case, so that an arrangement had to be made
for v arying the application of the surplus.
