"THE HAND 'fß DEAD "—AN 'NM/MT ,
be THE TOUR OP GOVERNOR Oiratte.--rhe
ana of life, in times such as these, is ,thrillingly
tied, intensely enthusiastic, wonderfully attractive,
and decidedly interesting. In thus operating, Weil.
iudeparticularly to that class of public men. who
•
occupy an exalted and proud position in State or
National affitire. Of this class, Governor Andrew
G-. Curtin has a prominent place before the people
of the State in—fact, we may truly sa y the world.
In his present tour, an incident occurred that
caused the tear of sympathy to start in the eye of
the Governor. He had addressed a large meatus at
Catasaugua, in the mountain region. As the sue was
fast receding behind the mountaintop, and casting a
long shade in the valley, the Governor took passage
In the train bound for more level regions. He an.
rived in Philadelphia in due*time, having been met
half-way by Colonel W. B Mann, and by him and
two other warm admirers was conduated to the (Jon
tinental, where he sought repose. ells nature wee
Wen-nigh exhausted , rue went of sleep, the fatigue
of .travel, the eventful scenes of his life, tee univer-
Alai hand. shakings, the surroundill4 crowds, the vi
vacity and volt:iterations of the thronging multitude,
lin of Which he had so recently passed through, made
:it necessary for retirement.
He was to start the next day on some business
relative to the defence and protection of the State,
in case of another rebel raid, which seemed to be
projected.
About ten o'clock in the morning there appeared
in the vestibule of the Continental Is well-dressed
young lady. She was by herself. Her fain) beto
kened hard usage, that had added to her appearance
ten years to her natural lite. She attracted rather
:Inure than ordinary attention ot the throng moving
'to and fro through the main avenue of that palatial
ibuilding, She maintained her silence, and appeared
- Wrapped in deep thought.
Presently Cul. Wm. B. Mann same down the
large winding marble steps; 'a slight tap on his
.mitioulder caused him -to atop. roe young woman
.stood before him, and said: "Sir, you are Win. B.
311 tum, I believe."
"I am, madam, what do yon wish?"
"I desire to see Governor Curtin."
" Well, madam, he is very mum' engaged at pre
tsent ; is your businesspresslng—is it of a public na
turel"
"I desire to see Mtn ; I have come all the way
from Ohio for the purpose I have been to Oatatiats
-qua, but the train was too lace; I arrived in the city
Idle morning and must see him ; he is the only dear
friend I have on earth."
Such an appeal was resistless. The gallantry of
Colonel Mann, as well as his business, could brook
no delay. lie retired for a moment, and presently
ushered the strange lady Into the presence of the
-Governor.
"Oh I Governor, I am so glad to see you," said
She, as she placed her left arm upon his shoulder and
imprinted a kiss upon his manly torebeao,"
"Madam," said he, quite overcome, to what am
I indebted for this unexpected salutation?"
" Sir, do you not know me t"
-
"Take a chair," said the Governor, blandly, at
lite same time extending one of the handsomest
in the parlor.
Colonel Mann and the few gentlemen present at
once became interested in the scene, and silently
looked On.
"Shortly after the battle of Antietam you were
Upon that bloody field," said she to the Governor.
"I. was," replied the Governor, thoughtfully,
'with b sigh, as the fearful scenes of carnage were
thus unexpectedly brought to his memory.
" You administered to the wants of the wounded
-land the dying."
"It was my duty, as a feeling Mau."
' "You did your duty well. !leaven alone will re
ward you, sir, for in this life there is no reward ade.
-quately expressive of the met it due you. You, sir,
Imparted consolation and revived the hopes of a
dying soldier of the 28th Ohio Ile was badly
wounded fn the arm ; you lifted him tuto au ambu
lance, and, the blood dripping from him, stained
your hands and your clothing. That soldier was as
dear to me as life itself.
"A husband l" said the Governor.
"No, sir,"
"A brother, perhaps'!"
"No, sir."
"A father 1"
"No, sir."
" A soul"
"Nooair."
" A lover I"
" No, sir. ,,
The little party around were more interested than
ever. If not a husband, father, brother, son or
lover, who, then, could it bel
"My dear madam," said the Governor, at length
breaking the silence, "this is au euisma to me.
Please explain more about the gallant soldier of
(Ohio," _ _ _
- -
6, Well, sir, that soldier gave you a ring—O. E. D.
'were the lettere engraved on the interior. Teat is
the ring now upon your little ringer. He told you
to wear it, and carefully have you done co. , '
The Governor pulled the ring ott; and cure enough
the letters.were there.
"The finger that used to wear that ring will never
Wear it any-more. The hand is dead, but the soldier
still lives, thanks to your kind atreation on that
/bloody field." •
..The.whole scene was yet a problem, that even the
ciagacity of Col. Mann could not solve.
The Governor-was now more interested than ever.
"Well, madam," said he,
" tell me Nat about it. Is
this ring yours? Was it given to you by a soldier
Whom you loved?" •
"I loved him as I loved ray life ; but he never
returned that love. He had more hive for his
country than for me ; I honor him for it. That
Sohlier. . who placed that little ring upon your
linger stands before you." So saying, the strange
lady arose from her chair, and stood before the Go
Wernor.
The scene that now ensued we leave to the imagi
nation of the reader. A happy hour passed. Tne
girl who had thus introduced herself' was Catharine
E. Davidson, -of Sheffield, Ohio. She was engaged
to be married, but her future riusbaLd responded to
the call of the President. and she ioiloweit him by
Imning another regiment. He was killed in the
Same battle where she fell wounded.' She is alone
in the world, herfather and mother having departed
this life years ago. She was the s.uaier of the 'nth
Ohio who hadl placed the ring upon the linger of
Governor Curtin, for the kind attention given her
.upon the bloody lield of Antietam.
The-light arm had been amputated about half way
between the elbow and the shoulder. The interview
finally ended, and having at last seen her, benefactor,
she bade him and his friends adieu, taking with her
an order, bearing the' bold signature of A. G. Our
tin, for one of Palmer's patent arms.
We had an interview with the heroine. She was
=dist, although she had led the life of a " hold sot-.
.flier boy." She was loud in her praise of Governor
Curtin, and ie. firm. in the belief that through his
hardworking energy, powers of physical endurance,
and great courage, he saved the liven_of ten :.thou•
and soldiers, many of whom still lire to bless his
name -as one of the " few immortal, not born to
die."
-RRVrEW Or - THE SIXTH REGIMENT CO
-70/LED TROOPS,. AT CHIELTEN HELL/L-41 review of
the Sixth Regiment U. S. colored troops took place
yesterday aftemoop, near Chelten Hiit, by ,Major
General Uadwalader. The field selected for the
purpose was a short distance above Camp William
Penn, where•the regiment is at present encamped.
Long before the review began, persons of both co
lors and sexes were on the ground, waiting to be
hold the scene-that was soon to take place; others
arrived later, and-when the time came there were
, between four and-five thousand spectators present.
This regiment lathe second that has been raised in
Philadelphia, and iscomposed principally of substi
tutes and drafted men from this State and Delaware,
While some are regularly enlisted men. Ir, numbers
ten companies of eighty men each, making in all
about 800 men.
The weather was favorable, and the men presented
P, fine appearance, their clothes being well Omitted
tip, and their guns in good order. One peculiar fea
ture we observed was their knapsacks, which are
somewhat different from the regular Government
ones and much easier to be carried. They are celled
the' Short's knapsack," and were farulahed by the
Government at the request of the supervisory com
mittee, they paying the dirfrence in cost. The co
lored regiments'• that left Massachusetts were also
provided with them, and several other white regi
ments. Major General Cadwalader, with his staff,
and Major Taggart, arrived on the ground about
lour o'clock, and the regiment being in order, they
rodelup and down the lines, while ktergfeld's band,
Which was engaged for the occasion, struck up
56 Hail to the Chief," and the "Scar Spangled BAO.-
ner,” after which the regiment was formed into
companies by Col. Louie Wagner, under whose su
pervision theregiment was manceuvred and marched
in review before the general and his staff, and then
formed into a hollow square, when the manual of
loading and firing was gone through with. Finally,
they were drilled in the different battalion move
ments, which lasted about an hour. The drill of
these men, taking into consideration the short time
they have been in formation, is excellent, and we
doubt if a white regiment was ever brought to the
Siame efficiency in so short a period of time. They
:seem ambitious to learn the movements, and, there
fore, apply themselves diligently to learn, which
the majority of them have succeeded in doing, much
to the surprise of those who witnessed the review
yesterday. After the review they were marched
• back to the encampment to prepare for dress parade.
Which took place at six o'clock.. Tots regiment, M.-
Ing full, will leave for the South in a few days.
,Another regiment is at present under formation, and
Will, no doubt i lie completed within a month.
MORE WORE FOR THE COMMISSION.--
lid for the-wounded of the gallant Hosecrans , army
is now uppermost in the minds of the patriotic.
Since the reception of the news of the great battle
in which the noble Army of the Cumberland was
engaged, the Christian Commission has been using
every exertion to send forward men and stores from
this city, Pittsburg, Cincinnati, and Chicago. to aid
the wounded on the battle field The well-known
Rev. B. W. Chidlaw, with thirty. seven men,; has
tone, and many of them are already at the scene of
action. These, in addition to the large number of
delegates who were on the ground when the battle
began, will be able to render timely aid to the brave
Men who have fallen wounded upon the field. With
these delegates the Commission has also sent a large
amount of stores, consisting , of such things as will
,tas of great benefit to the wounded.
Every effort has been used by this patriotic moo
elation on this occasion, as heretofore, to resell our
'Wounded heroes, and minister to their necessities
and comforts at the earliest time possible. Stores
of every description are needed at once. Send
adores, if you have them on hand ; otherwise send
'Money, as the Commission know best, from experi
ence, the kind of stores needed, and can purchase to
the best advantage. Money may be sent to Joseph
'Patterson, Esq., treasurer, at the Western Bank,
and stores to Geo. H. Stuart, Ere ;president, 13
',Bank street. From all accounts, many of our noble,
'.patriotic soldiers have fallen, and their bleeding
'4vounda call loudly for relief. The poorest person
In the community might afford a dollar ; the wealthy
!Should afford their hundreds.

CITY YTE3VIS .
THE "NEW TONTINE."—MeSSTB. Wood
worth ,k Walton, evidently gentlemen of enter
prising spirit and good taste, are conducting an
establishment, remarkable in its way, on Seventh
street, above Chestnut street. This novelty is "The
New Tontine," a new institution of refreshment
with which every one about town will ere long be
come acquainted. It has been brilliantly inaugu
rated, and has at once passed into favor. A
numerous list of wines and liquors, among which
ate many choice articlesa floe cuisine ot oysters,
reed-birds, and every delicacy of the season, abun
dantly on hand—will give great satisfaction to the
connoisseur and epicure. Here and elsewhere Messrs.
Woodworthr&lWalton are well known as caterers
and gentlemen; and their wide reputation adds
pyestige to the many attractions of this new en
terprise.
FINE QUALITY HAMS AND DRIED BEET.—
Messrs. Davis Richards (successors to the late
0. H. Mattson), dealers in fine family groceries,
Bach and Tenth streets, have now in store a fresh
supply of fine Jersey-cured Hams, large sized
Tengues, and fine quality Dried Beef, to which
we invite the attention of our readeri.
REAL JAPAN BLACKING.—Messrs. Thayer
and Cowperthwait have now for gale at their store,
NO. 411 Commerce street, Brown & Brother's real
Japan Blacking. It is an entirely new liquid, and
imparts an intensely rich lustre, equal to the high
est Japan varnish. The attention of grocers and
others is invited to their advertisement in another
column.
LARGE TURTLE.—A turtle was caught off
Saco last week by the pilot boat Sea Ranger, which
weighed twelve hundred and eight pounds. He
measured seven feet from his nose to his tail, and
girl ed ten feet. He was two feet thick, and about
five feet from side to side. When his four flippers
were extended they measured eight and a half feet.
On hie back had been cut with a knife the following:
Granville Stokes' Palatial Clothing Establish.
ment, No. 609 Chestnut street, Philadelphia?,
SEWING MAOMNES.—Grover 1;!?6 --Baker,
730 Chestnut street, have now on hand, and are ma
nufacturing to large demand, every description of
these great ..ebonomies, at prices remarkably re
duced. The names of this liberal and enterprising
firm havegrown identical with the popularity, im
prnvement, and increased cheapness of the great in
vention, and a Grover & Baker Sewing Machine is
a synonym for accuracy, completeness. and cheap
uses. The machines of their manufacture are equip.
ped with every necessary article, and are warranted
to keep in order. Every one, workwoman and house
keeper, who desires to save time, trouble, and eye
sight, and to secure a perfect article—the cheapest,
simplest, most durable, best Sewing Machine ever
made—will call on Grover ex, Baker. We have had
one of these Machines in constant use in our family
for more than three years, and have not broken
a needle for fifteen months.—PhiLadc/phia City Item.
THINKING BETTER OF IT.—John Bull is
drawing in hfs horns by restraining the Confederate
rams in the Mersey. The rebs are furious thereat,
and they pitch into " pcnfide Albion" without mercy.
In the meantime Uncle Sam goes on quietly with
his ship-building in loyal ports, while some of his
nephews engage in building artistic suits_ for the
comfort, convenience, and elegance of the other:
nephews. Those who moat excel at this kind of
employment are Messrs. Roskhill & Wilson, at the
Erown.stone Clothing Hall, Nos. 603 and 605 Chest
nut street.
“ TICE CITY DEFENCES AGAIN."—ME,
EDITOR: It seems to me they are mating a great
deal of fuss about these fences they call the city D
fences. Are they anything like the X fences we
have around our farm? The engineer says they
were laid out before Gilmore fired that greasy fire
into Charleston, and that he didn't expect them kind
of shots to be made by Lee—that they are as scarce
as "angels' visits.” I suppose he meant " swamp
angels' visits," as it appears that's the kind they
are. We hope the Mayor, or the man •who sweeps
the streets, or whoever's business it is, will Bee that
these fences are put up and kept in repair, and don't
let them get stuck all over with posters of Charles
Stokes & Co.'s One-price Clothing Store, like some
of the fences inside the city.
Respectfully, ISAAC PAILTINGTON.
BY the latest news from Charleston we
see that Beauregard is about to assume the offen
sive in that quarter. We were not aware _ before
that he had ever ceased assuming :the offensive. Of
a Ureolidescent, one part French, one part Indian,
and five parts African, he, to our minds, assumed
the offensive early. Educated by ttSt United States
at west Point, and the first one in that institution
to break the rules by sending a challenge, and after
wet ds, when in Mexico, at the head of a clique to
get President Polk to supersede General Soott by
Gideon J. Pillow, and lately hiving the unenviable
notoriety of being in command at the attack on the
flag of his country at Fort Sumpter, all combine, in
our opinion, to class him with those who are pecu
liarly offensive. Charles Stokes & Co,, first-class
Clothiers, under the Continental Hotel. Don't let
us hear any more about Beauregard =Mains, the of
fensive.
