The manner in which they aT© got up, and tbeir moderate price, are additional re commendation.’. We have to notioe, rather too briefly for their future deservings, their last batch. First Is a- volume of “ Fireside Travels,” by James Bussell Lowell. It Is written In good, plain prose, “which he who runs may read,” and deserves an estended circulation. It opens with a lively sketch o! Cambridge, Mass., thirty years ago—-lively, jet regretful —in which are records of many curious per sonages of that place and time. We llkwit, as a record of college life in this country, made with spirit and apparent fidelity, and not the less be cause it Is strongly national in Its feeling—particu larly so, indeed, In declaring that Allston “is thus far the greatest English painter of historical sub jects,” which la raying a good deal, when it is con sidered how few pictures of any kind he produced, arcl that his Belshazzar is unfinished. "A Moose* head Journal" carries the reader into tho interior of Maine, and the remaining moiety of the volume, giving leaves from the author's “Journal In Italy and Elsewhere,” takes us with Mm to sou, carries UB into the Mediterranean, lands us In Malta, takes ub through some notable parts of Italy, and gives us tree citizenship Is Rome. Mr. Lowell, who is a poet, has produced a pleasant volume, which those who have tra versed the foreign paths he trod, and those who have borne experiences like his, will espe cially enjoy. From this prose by a poet, we turn to “ Dramatis Personae,” by Robert Browning, which is indeed ore of the modern curiosities of literature. If, as some have imagined, the obscure is identical with the sublime, this volume is full of sublimity. As the production of a man who has written some—not much—respectable poetry, and as the husband of the greatest English poetess—this volume will find a place upon many book-shelves. The last number Of the Horth British Review very tersely characterizes the author when It says : “ Mr. Browning too often forgets that poetry is the strict antithesis of science, and, instead of poems, gives us hard metaphysical studies, the difficulty of wMch Is enhanced by the elliptical and involved language In which they are conveyed.” Much more to our taste, because entirely intelli gible, is a little u blue and gold" volume containing "The Poems of Bayard Taylor." It opens with "The Poet’s Journal," his latest harvest from the poetic field j then follow his " Poems from the Orient i” nest, his classical episode entitled * : Pass ing the Sirens;" after that his "Romances and Lyrics," then his “Californian Ballads and Poems," and, finally, a selection from his Earlier Poems* The whole makes a very charming collection— unequal, it is true, but sometimes very good, and seldom common-place. We do not think much of Mr. Taylor’s poems upon classic subjects, but he has caught the free spirit of th§ East in his “ Poem ot the OrieDt,” (as witness The Temptation of Has sac ben Khaled, Amram’e Wooing, and Galistau,) and hIS Callfornlanslyxics havefthe same wild Mo risco flavor of Lockhart’s Spanish romances, A few of hie other poems will find their way into volumes of favorite selections—such are Moh-da inin, the Soldier and the .Pan!, the Song of the Camp, the Mystery, tho Phantom, and, despite the abominable, became ungrammatical) commence ment— the touching b&llad of the Quaker Widow. Mr. Taylor, in this new edition, ought have mend ed some of his rhymes. He makes confer rhyme With/rofli her, been with within, and gorge with surge. In one stanza (p. 88) of the first Poem of the Orient, we find three examples of bad rhyme: Here, through it, feature, and expression must be mispronounced throw it, fayture, and exjirassicn to rhyme with ]>oct, nature, and passion. A good por trait of Mr. Taylor suitably illustrates this volume. The Saturday Review, edited by some of the'best educated men of England, who rarely write for any other publication, is now a power in the land. For the most part it is severe and cynical—a sort of Ismael oi the press—but many of its essays are shrewd and sensible, as well as gonial and gentle. A volume by one Contributor, whose name is not given, has been republished here by Ticknor & Fields, and must give a favorable idea of the Satur day Review itself. To onr taste, the best essays here are those upon Snubbing, Fluency, Saying Dlsa- Things, Study of Character, Hugger- Mugger, the Uses of Pathos, and One’s Own Way. The same publishers have issued a new edition (the third) of Mrs. E. B. Bee’s Life of Jean Paul Freddie Richter, one of the greatest of the German classics. The first edition appeared tweatj-two years ago, and the present volume will be wel» corned by the rapidly increasing number of per" sons who understand, or take an Interest in, Ger. man literature. Mrs. Leo’s biography, -which opens with a fragment by Paul Jean himself, is not a translation from other writers, but has been brought out by her from the materials which they had col. lected, and which their countrymen accepted a 3 authentic and reliable. In an Appendix arc gizen particulars of Madam von Kalb, who had an_ “elective affinity” for Paul Jean, notices of Wfe land and Herder, reports of Paul Jean’s table talk and letter-writing, and his letter in re ply to the venerable Crleim (whose pseudonym was Septimus Fixiien), in 1790. A portrait of Paul Jean faces the tibio.page. The want of an index deprives this book of much of its value, and should he supplied in the next edition. “Emily Chester,” evidently, by a female writer Who doeß not disclose her name, is one of the most remarkable novels yet written in this country. The story, though with its scene partly cast in Europe, is essentially American; commencing in Baltimore and shifting to New York. It is evidently written by one who possesses great talent, high mental cul ture, and the habit of reflective thought. The reader will take interest in all the characters who are prominently placed before him-largely in Emily Chester, Max Crampton, and Frederick Hastings, and, In a lesser degree, in Mr. Chester, in the fine lad Philip, in that thorough gentleman the elder Crampton, in. gentle Alice, in Jack and Bertie, and in the excellent Dr. Weston. Tha story turns on the point that Max Crampton and Emily Chester become man and wife, sue having what Goethe called an “ elective affinity ” for Frederick Hastings, which works no tangible evil, bat makes the huEband miserable, though he never distrusts the wife. The groat error of the stcry is that, though bound by the rales of the church, the hero and heroine are only husband and wife in name. This »stheticaily preserves the lady’s purity, but is unnatural. There is no reason why a woman, de» scribed as one of tlie loveliest in the land, should be a virgin-bride from the altar to the grave. It is over-refining, untrue, and, we may hint, Imprac ticable. - This defect affects the plot, but does not take from the literary value of the romance. The author, whoever she may be, is destined to obtain a high place among our native female writers. 43!* CHESTNUT Street. FRIDAY, OCTOBER 21, 1864.

Of Captain Mayne Reid’s latest juvenile tales, “The Cliff OHmbers j or, the Lone Home in the Himalayas,” and “ Ocean Waifs ; a story of Adven ture on Land and Sea,” author’s editions, with beautiful illustrations, have been published by Ticknor & Fields, whose fairness and liberality to foreign authors have become proverbial. The first of these narrates the adventures of two young Gor man botanists, and their Hindoo attendant in one of the valleys of the Himalaya Mountains, wherein they have bees accidentally enclosed, with their escape thence, and the other volume tells of ship wreck, escape on rafts, suffering, starvation, endu rance, loss of a vessel by fire, escape, &c. The inte rest in Mayne Reid’s books never flags, and the amount Of information which be conveys is always well put, apropos of the scene or the adventure, and alway s to be depended upon. The publications of Ticknor A Fields are obtaina hi© from j.'B. Lippincott fit Co., and from T. B Peterson & Brothers. Courtesy to Strangers at Churches, To the Ed if or of The Press ; Sjii : V heu circumstances compel a person to so journ os-er the Sabbath in a city distant from his htiLS. it ik very pleasant to attend on the services of the sanctuary, where, for the time being at least, we can realize that wo are all brethren. But when WO are forced to realise that our attendance 111 a scarcely enoured intrusion it is painfully humili ating. Last Sabbath morning, having heard much of the talents of tii« clergyman, with two ladies, strangers like myself, ! attended service at a church not twenty wiles from tho corner of Nineteenth and Walnut streets. The ladles, with proper delicacy, dcciined enteiing the sacred edifice till seats could be shown us by the sexton. The vestibule was crowded with strangers, waiting, like ourselves, the movement Of the waters 5 but no sexton appeared, and 1 eoulu not but noace that of all tho great eifOWU that entered, not one Invited a stranger with him or her. At length, and after the services had commenced, the sexton made hie appearance, and with, very slow dignity, procecf ed to “ distribute ” the strangers to the few vacant seats. By the time this was com pleted the morning lessons were nearly over. For myself and partv, we humbly took seats far back to the wall, In an unmarked pew, where wc had the privilege of sitting, but not of hearing the ser vices. To a stranger ot sensitive feelings it is extremely unpleasant to feel his presence an intrusion* and to be forced to disturb the worship of the congregation, or retire from the sanctuary. I cannot believe that the learned divine who offi ciates in that church, or the intelligent members of bis congregation, Who appear to be gentlemen, can bo aware U' this stale of affairs. In the West, a member of the congregation is stationed at each door, who shows strangers*to seats as fast as they present themselves; and I would respectfully sug gest that some such measure would be extremely gratifying to the strangers who visit there, and pre vent them from retiring with the impression that, In that temple at least, Christian courtesy was not to be found. W, Philadelphia, Oct. 17,1864. "Wendell Phillips is announced to speak at Cooper Institute, Wednesday evening, October 26, on the Presidential election. It will be his first and ifily Address in New York during the Presidential Campaign, me * Cirrat JVhaSe Convention. [Special Report to The Press. J While the present era Iff fraught with ques tions and oyents of the moat vital importance to man, and of all mankind, perhaps most to the Ame rican cßisen—while the War Conventions, political meeting?* and elections are occupying tho thoughts and attention of a vast majority of the people of this continent—there are inhabitants of a different element who likewise feel the importance of the time?, and whose happiness, peace, and liberty arc at stake. Wa refer to the great leviathans of the deep, among whom there has recently been much greater excitement and enthusiasm than terrestrial beings imagine. The cause of this can be-well un derstood, and It is no wonder that wo arc called upon to record the proceedings of the great Whale Convention,held in the Arctic aud Polar sauA. The recent discoveries of petroleum oil havo awa kened the serious attontion of the inonarciis o? the deep. A short time age—tho exact day is not mentioned in the telegraphic reports received— the largest and most respectable body of whales ever assembled to gether met In convention, a few miles off the coast of Greenland- The members of this Convention were composed of delegates from the various classes of the whale community, such as the Balaena tnysti cetus or Greenland whale, the Bblmna physalls or Razorback. and the Cachalot or Spermaceti whale, residing in different districts of tho watery element. This assemblage was soon organized, by the election of an ancient and distinguished whale (familiarly known as the Jonah whale) as president. The president then rose and expressed his heart* felt thanks for the honor conferred upon him. Since the choice of the Convention had fallen upon him, he would not decline the position, while he sensibly felt that there were many present much more enti tled to it end better able to perform its duties; that be was getting old in years; that his health was feeble, and, Indeed, had never been good for many centuries past; that he had been a martyr to indi gestion and dyspepsia ever since the time when, unfortunately. In a hungry moment, he had swal lowed “one Jonah," whose name had stuck to him ever since, and who had proved so tough a' sub stance, aud so impenetrable to the action of his gastric juices, that some three days after he was compelled to regurgitate him. He would, never theless, briefly state the object of the Conven tion. They had assembled for no political cr party purposes whatever, but, in an in formal way, simply to congratulate each, other upon the prospects now presented (after years of annoyance and suffering), of peace, hap piness, and the greatest of all blessings, liberty; and to pass resolutions expressive of the sentiments which had drawn together this large and respecta ble assemblage. That he knew “no North, no South, no East, no West, but the whole nation,” whose general prosperity and freedom were, of all things, nearest his heart. Again ex pressing his thanks for the honor conferred upon, him, and the hope that entire harmony would pre* vail over their deliberations, he would occupy their attention no longer, but requested that the Conven tion would at once proceed to business. A committee on resolutions was then appointed, consisting ©f members from the First, Filth, and Seventh districts. A member from the Second district then rose and said: Mr. Pbestdrkt : Like yourself, I am getting old ID years, out the thoughts aad hopes by which I am animated at this moment quits rejuvenate mej I See before us the dawn of liberty. For years past I, like the rest of you, hare lived in perpetual anxiety and fear. I have never ventured to the surface of the sea for the puri>ose of “spouting” and “blow ing,” which, you know, is as essential to our ex istence as it is to terrestrial individuals, without ex pecting to feel the deadly “ harpoon ” or “lance” iD my body. And why should we be so hunted and molested 1 Simply because we carry some thirty or forty tons of cil about us, which man, our- great enemy, !s ever seeking to obtain—and for what 1 while destruction and death to us, simply to make light of for him. And what has our race ever done towards man to incur his unrelenting persecution of us ? It Is true we are large and formidable individuals in appearance, but still ' harmless and Inoffensive in disposition. For myself, I have never done an act of in jury to a single human being. Many years ago, you may remember—no, most of you are too young to remember it, but your venerable president does—l was taking a little air upon the surface of the sea, as is our wont, when the famous Sinbad, together with a number of seamen from a vessel near by, taking my back for an island, landed upon it. I exhibited no displeasure upon this occupation of my territory, but rather considered it as a good joke, until some of tho party deliberately com menced kindling a fire upon me, when, finding matters getting rather too hot, I quietly moved off and left my visitors minus their foundation. This incident, my friends, clearly illustrates to you the ingratitude and enmity of man towards ns; he is not satisfied with burning our insides up on land, bat he attempts set ting fire to tis in our own element. Indeed, there Is scarcely any form of injury and persecution to which we have not been subjected by these human tyrants, We had earnestly hoped, upon learning of the in troduction of gas throughout Europe and America, that this barbarous warfare upon us would cease, and our hearts thTobbed with expectation of brighter days, but the gas companies, not content with fair iprofits and eom© large dividends, raised the price so high upon consumers that, alas! many were obliged to fall back upon oil and spermaceti, and we must again suffer. But behold our deliver ance is near; it has already commenced. Our la mentations to Neptune and Oceanus have not been in vain. The earth, which we have ever regarded rather as our enemy, as being the birth-place and abode of man, for whose comforts and advan tages our lives have been sacrificed—this very earth, I say, Is now yielding forth her Increase In a way which will prove our blessing and salvation. Oil! oil! oil! which our poor bodies have heretofore had to supply, Is now gushing forth from her bosom In abundant Streams, and, while it costs her nothing, it guarantees to us everything—'life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Our population, which has been considerably diminished by long-continued depredation upon us, may now hope for increase, and we trust that every vile “lance” and "har poon ” may be only known hereafter as things that were. [Great applause.] Speeches were also made by other delegates, and the greatest enthusiasm was manifested throughout. The committee returned with the following reso lutions, which were then read i Whereas, We, the whale residents of the Polar and other seas, have recently learned, with feelings of inexpressible delight, that the sister element to that in which we live has nobly come to our relief, In supplying as* abundant steel; of oil to its inhabit ants, and has thereby diminished the dangers to which wo have heretofore been exposed ; therefore, Resolved) That our most grateful acknowledg ments he tendered to the Earth, for her bountiful goodness towards us, and especially to the State of ’enDSylvania, in the United Slates 01 America, where her oil regions do so much, abound. jicfolvcd.

The resolutions were received with much enthu siasm, and were unanimously adopted.

Letter from Karrisbnrg;, [Correspondence of The Press. 3 CONVENTION OF LUTHERANS AND OTHERS TO EF FECT THE BETTER ENDOWMENT OP PENNSYLVA NIA COLLEGE, LOCATED AT GETTYSBURG, PENNA. Harrisburg, Oct. 19,1864. A Convention, composed chiefly or Lutheran cler gymen and laymen, has been In session her© in the church of Rev. Dr. Hay, yesterday and to-day, to adopt measures for the better endowment of Penn sylvania College, located at Gettysburg, Penna. The attendance was quite large, and its purposes prosecuted with unwonted success. The organization was effected by the appointment of A. F. Ockershausen, E?q, of the city of New York, as president, and Rev. E. W. Hutter, of Phi ladelphia, secretary. Prayer having been offered, the object of the Convention was stated by Rev. Dr. Hay, when, by request, Rev. H. L. Baugtier, D.D., president of Fe&npylYania College, addressed the body, giving a detailed statement of its affairs, prospects, deficiencies, wants, &c. He was followed by Rev. Dr. Conrad, Rev, J. E. Graelf, Rev. V. L. Conrad, Rev. F. Benedict, Hon. Edward MuPlier- EOU, and Rev. J. B. Biltinger, who all warmly urged the necessity of a speedy and liberal endowment or the institution. On motion of Rev. Dr. Brown.lt was uuanluiously resolved that for the above object it is expedient, with a& little delay as poeeible, to raise the sum of saoo,ooo. v/hereupon the Convention proceeded at once to receive subscriptions, with the following gratifying results: Rev. j.'E.

Mr. Graeff’s subscription was stated to be for the endowment of the professorship of English language and literature, with a reservation of the right himself to name the incumbent. The three professorships thus endowed were named respectively the “Graeff,” the “Ockershausen,” and the “ Conrad” professorships. An executive committee, composed of Rev. Dr. Conrad, Rev. Dr. Hay, Rev. A. C. Wedekind, and Rev. J. E. Graeff, was appointed, to continue the further prosecution of this nobio work. On Tuesday evening a truly able, eloquent, and effective address was delivered by Rev. Dr. Oonrad, on the duty of tbe Church not to stop until both the college aDd seminary are thoroughly endowed, and on the most feasible methods of accomplishing it. The addiegß was ordered to be printed In both Eng lish and German. A communication was read from Rev. S. K* Rrobst. Rev. William. Rath, and Jonathan Rlch ted, Etq fii Allentowfli fceUigto. sUrtfaf; the inquir V whether the interests of Pennsylvania College worn ld not be largely subserved by its re moval to B.''stern Pennsylvania, and whether, in that event, Convention might not see its way clear, in ca w the necessary buildings were pro vided, to recomn.‘end Its transfer to AHentoim. By request, Rev. Mr. Brobst made verbal statements, bearing on this pblnfc. The Convention resolved that it had llsteiie d to these statements with plea sure, but forasmucU It had been convened for a s'pecif c' pur pope—viz : 't&e endowment of the College, the question Of TcmOkVa.*- was foreign to its purposes, and its consideration, that account, inexpedient. Kovs. Wedekind, and I>r. Conrad, wot® appointed a committee 'to solicit contributions from the citizens of Harrisbur.g, which duty they prompt ly discharged, much to their encouragement. Letters wore read from Professors Muhlenberg end Jacobs, assigning reasons tosr their non-attend ance, and expressing i&. the object of the Convention the liveliest Interest. Prof. M. L. Stoever addressed tt«r Convention on the* past history of Pennsylvania Übllege, stating eoune of its bless©! fruits for the gltvyy of God, the good ol the Church and the country, end predicting for it a still more glorious future. Ho was requested to embody his statements la form, aud have them published in the Evangelical Review ax.d Church papers. Suitable resolutions wore offered by Rgv. A. O. Wedekind, expressive of the toolings of the Conven tion in view of the recant sorrowful death of Dr. Jobs Kitzmlller, of Pine Grove, Pa., which were adopted standing and in silence. The Convention resolved that, in its opinion; the objects contemplated by the act of Congress, grant ing certain public lands by the United States to the several Stat.es, tor the endowment of agricultural end mechanical colleges, would be best attained by the division of B&id lands among tho six colleges named In the bill pending before the Pennsylvania Legislature.andthat, for various reasons, Pennsylva nia College Is eminently entitled to a portion of said grant. Revs. E. W. Huttcr, J. Fry, and .T. b. Bit tlnger were appointed a comnilttee, in conjunction with one previously appointed by the Board of Col lege Trustees, to exercise a judicious guardianship over said bill, pending Us passage through the Le gislature. A vote of thanks was passed fco Dr, Hay’s congre gation, for their hospitable entertainment of its members, when the Convention adjourned with the ueual religious exerolses. From the munificent subscriptions already rea lized it admits of no doubt that the endowment fund contemplated to be raised will be more than secured at an early day, and that thenceforth Penn sylvania College will assume a rank among our educational institutions scarcely second to any in the land. h. General Hooker at Chicago, The citizens of Chicago seem to be untiring in their exhibition of friendship for Fighting Joe. On Monday they gave him. a banquet at the Tremont, and in the evening a large assemblage gathered at the Metropolitan Hall to hear him expatiate on the topics of the day. General Hooker, on rising, was received with oheers. He said: Laxubo and Gentlemen : No words of mine can express my thankfulness for the generous kind ness with which Mr. Lamed has spoken or my ser vices. No words of mine can express my gratitude for the handsome manner in which you have re ceived me. [Cheers.) They are appreciated by me now, and they will be remembered by me as loug as I live. lam still more thankful of the kind manner Ip Which he spoke Of my companions. They are more Gesemnu ot your gratitude than I am. Th.es have been faithful; they have been devoted. If I have been more prominent, they are as good asT am, for they have done their duty as I have done mine, so far as I could. I enlisted In this rebellion for the rebel lion, and I expect to be in at the death. [Loud Cheers,] I expect when it is over, In common with my companions, to be honorably discharged, and I intend to merit it. [Cheers.] I feel by your Indul gent expressions as though 1 had merited it up to this time. lam interested in the result as much as when I took up arms at the beginning. I know it is staggering ironi its own weakness. He then read the speech of that arch traitor, Jefferson Davis, whose name was loudly cheered in these streets; a man who had been guilty of more dastardly con duct than any other since the beginning of time. He was the enemy of government unu of mankind. TV bat does it mean when he Is cheered by anyone in this majestic city 1 There is something wrong. [A voice—" There are traitors at home.”] Tout is the word. He Ib directing his arms against your brothers, sons, and against your own blood, yet he is cheered in these streets TVUat does it mean ? Are we Lot Americans * Have we got no pride of coun try? Is there any one who desires to belong to no country 1 1 want to belong to the proudest country on the globe. [Cheers ] I want to put down Jeff Davlß, all Copperheatiß and traitors. These men n ay as well try to stop the earth going round the sun as to stop this country. We have a great mis sion to perform to the world and to humanity, the right oi liberty to all, and we will perform it. As I ehail leave to-morrow morning, I would be doing great injustice to myself in not expressing my thankfulness for youT kindness and hospitality. I have lelt overwhelmed with it, and al?o with your feeling towards mysel, and will try to merit it as long as 1 live. It is my desire to go to the /rout, where I thiDk I belong. I want to do my whole dutv towards the enemies here and the enemies of the Contederacy. I wish to bid you ail farewell. [Loud cheers, amidst which Gen. Hooker retired.] "Why Gejt. McClellan was Removed.—Mont gomery Blair, late Postmaster General, made the following Important revelations in a speech at Eill- Cott’s Mills, Maryland, last Saturday • Why did the President relieve Gen. McClellan'? I know the impressions under which he acted inti mately. The President was friendly to McClellan, I was friendly to him, while tbo*e of more conside ration in army concerns were hostile to him. The War Committee at Washington, and tnemllfcary authorities, consulted at every step of its proceed ings, were inimical to his retention of command. They held that his delay, with a much superior anny, to attack the enemy that remalued at Bull Run after the defeat there of a portion of our forces, from tbe midst of summer to the succeeding spring, when the enemy thought fit to retire to a stronger position ; that the delay to attack the small force at Yorktown, when the war wae to be transferred to Richmond ; that the delays and mistakes there, In keeping our army In the swamps of the Chlckaho mioy until the enemy found opportunity to attack and defeat it, was proof that the command should pass into other hands. The President, though shaken, resisted the importunities then made to supplant tbe General. The battle of Antietam restored his confidence, though painfully disappointed In the failure to com plete the deleat of the enemy by sending forward his resolve, when Burnside repeatedly urged tc after carrying tbe bridge over the Antietam, seeing the enemy in flight, and requiring only the aid of re serve veterans to crush tbe eremy’srear guard, pressed forward to cover his retreat. The delay, then, it was contended, gave the enemy the night, and the succeeding day and night, to cross the Po tomac. This fatal delay, and the refusal of Mc- Clellan to press a pursuit on Lee’s demoralized army immediately after, when the fords of the Po tomac gave him opportunity to do so, or to head him from his base nearer Richmond, by taking the eWUr line and cutting bim off by Interposing In front, were again made the groundß of a demand for his removal. Tbe President adhered to him—went to him In bis headquarters at Antietam—urged him to move to anticipate Lee and confront him, If sot la the valley betweeD the mountains, to interpose be tween him and the Rappahannock below them* This was the peremptory requirement of the Pre sident, apparent on the face of the well-reasoned letter he addressed to his general. He failed to meet the demands made on him by the man who took all the responsibility—who tried at first per suasion, and at last exaction, and feft that there was nothing left but to carryout hia resolution, which a tense of duty had compelled him to adopt. Here are the simple facts, and they explain the Presidents motives. An Hour uith Moseby. THE TENDER MMIGIES OF GU BRILL AS. A correspondent of the Newark (N. J.) Daily Ad vertiser, who was a passenger on board the Balti more and Ohio Railroad train captured last week, by Moseby’s guerillas, thus describes his experi ences ; “When near a station called HoneyvlUo, tea miles south of Harper’s Ferry, and about the same distance from Martlnsburg, we were alarmed by a suddeh crash, Which threw many passengere from their seats; then followed numerous shots outside, tbe passengers crouching down close to the bottom of the car for safety ; cries of * guerillas.” * gueril las !’ resounded on every side, and altogether a scene of panic was presented which can better be Imagined than deicribed. To add to the tumult, three or four shots were fired through the windows, breaking the glass in a thousand pieces. “ in an instant we heard the roobers entering the cars from both ends. Surmising their errand, I jerked my watch from my pocket, handed it to a lady companion, telling her to secrete It, which she did. Just then one of Che fellows stood before me with a pistol close to my head, and demanded my pccket-oock. I obeyed with commendable diligence. He passed on, to relieve my neighbor of hat, coat, watch, and pocket-book. “Another of the band approached, pistol la hand. * Here, you d— d Yank, hand over your watch.* 4 You’re too late,’ I answered promptly; ‘it is gone.’ Tho fellow seemed satisfied with this, and went on. “ A very demonstrative fat lady, seated near the end of our car, just then jumped up, and caught one of the rebels in her arms. 4 Oh, my love, my dear man, you will not kill me,* she screamed, at the same time, clinging to him until la ungallant auger he roared, ‘ confound you, let me go, I will lose my part of the plunder with your stupidity.’ We were then ordered out, as the train was to be set on fire. On leaving the cars we had to climb a steep sand bank about twenty feet high, there to await fur ther orders. “ The passengers in the sleeping cars fared worse, as all, with one exception, lost their hais, coats, boots, watches, and money. When they were ejected Ircin their quarters, and ascended the hill, they presented a sorry appearance—iust COnsdOUS of Ihedr loss, trembllng-with cold, and fearing they might be Invited to visit Richmond. In one car there were sixty Goman emigrants bound for Ohio, who, when the thieves demanded their money, showed fight. To Intimidate the rest, two men were instantly shot by the butchers, and a woman wounded. The remainder were then ordered to leave the cars, but did not understand the com mand. Moseby ordered his men to ‘fire the cars and burn the Dutch.’ The conductor begged of him to hold on until he could find a man who could speak German. The poor creatures were at last macle to understand. They left the car, it wag get on fire, and the two men and one wounded woman left in the flames. “ There were about thirty Union soldiers on board, unarmed, returning to their commands. Theae were taken prisoners, and, alßo, forty or fifty or the pas sengers were ordered to fall In line to be taken off. About this time I felt a little nervous, not having any strong desire to visit Libby; but, fortunately, as I bad a screaming babe in my arms, I was not one of the chosen. ‘ Among the persons taken was a burly negro, who contrived to escape by f alling face down on tho road. The whole party were soon ordered to march. Then followed hurried, agonizing farewells, and the victims moved forward. We all supposed they were on their way to Richmond, but only the soldiers met with this fate. The citizens were taken a short distance to a piece of woods andthoroughly searched, and robbed 01 whatever money they had left and the best of their clothes. , “ While standing with the ladies I saw a Union soldier approach cautiously along the fence. "When clore beside us he quietly pulled off his coat, then his pantaloons, and threw them across the fence, having nothing left but a shirt and pair of drawers. He then walked forth boldly among the marauders, asked for some clothing to keep aim warm, com plaining that the rebs had taken all his clothes. The ruse eaved him from further attack. Then arof© a cry that the ‘Yanks’ were in the woods 5 the guerillas mounted and started off In a hurry, lout in five minutes they were back and exclaimed, * a false aiaiuj !’ and they tell to plundering sttii farther. By this time the mail, express, and baggage had been robbed, and what they generally did not want was In flames, and the gentlemen were left no extra clothing, and certainly no surplus cash. . “One the ladies of ou? lost all hsr bag- FOUR CENTS. page. begged a plethoric-looking- fiftie - rina to spare her OJothirg and that of her child. * There are no valuables In the trunk ; you certain* J> can do nothing With its contents,* she pleaded ‘Pooh/ sneered the ‘chivalry/ as l:e swaggered past her ‘they will do to help on the'‘ftiiaw/ and help the flan es they accordingly did. l *lt -was then announced by ono of thecPlcerz that evert rider had place for a woman In front of him on his hors?, but this beastly threat was set carrie-.i out.
