In the absence of move in reference to the milltartri
situation, I know of nothing bei4erto communicate'
than the unpleasant esperienee of Mr. Albert Sfting:
the leader of the band in the bth Michigan .
ry, who was taken -prisoner by the enemy about•tlie•-
nth of last May. — Mr. Stuck was , engaged at the
'time in assisting. the WOurided o a duty which is, as.
sighed to the musicians in and after every engage
recut. He was -captured at the residence of Miss
French, between' Spottsylvania, Court House and
Fredcrickiburg, by that oleos ef.persons among the
• enemy who assume the garb of peace and are-osten
sibly non-combatants, but-really belong lo -that in
famous; gang known as bushwhackers. • These land::
pirates arrested him as a spy, and, with a' faints
liarity which manifested their knowledge of
highway robbery, they plundered hicto s of alto his •
money, jewelry,' 'and even his 'beets, which,' being •
too small for them, they carried .away in their
hands. This sot of marauder's having taken what .
they considered their share of his property, he. Was .
hurried of a distance of ten miles to what is pro—
nounced the Gold Milt run. lie was there passed'
over to.the safe keeping of 'other robbers, who or-'
dored him to strip himself of his clothing o ivhich he, ,
refused to do until a revolver, in a very threatening •
attitudeowas • placed in very close, oontactwith his •
face, 'Which act was accompanied with' language'
which changed Mr. Stuck's mind. 'Among other
things, one, of them asserted that ho had killed se-.
venteen Yankees after they wore taken prisoners,
and be be d--d . It he would not shoot a dozen more
for as good a suit of clothes as he had on. .The brO;
ther.of this gloating Murderer, who rimmed thothio:
Bess a' shitilar.spirit, suggested that he had better
take him from the road to shoot him, which sugges
tion was complied with. Seeing 'that tie denial of
their demandi would post him his life, 4ti
divested himself .of ail, of his. .clothing excepting
his shirt, before, the revolver was turned from hitt
bead. When this Union prisoner complained, he; •
• was informed 'that he bad gotten MI very Well; cis;
they had left' him a shirt, but. when they turned him
over to the next . ".guards" ,they : weuldlikely take'
that article from him. As he presented rather an itn
modest appearance, one of them, who had appro•
priated his overcoat, cut
,the cape off and gave it to
him. The shirt he still wears,: as he wag never
favored with a change While in the Confederacy.
He was deprived of soap and confined under such
circumstances as prevented his obtaining water to
cleanseit. • .
• - • ..
Mr. Stuck was taken tn . Orange Court House,
where he was tried aeis, s py, bniesitie ... able
prove that he was captured -in our lines, the cloirge
was not substintiated.ops;Was then placed in the
Lynchburg prison among our Wounded soldiers; from .
which he made his escape rive different times, but
was always retaken. He hid been provide& With.
keen of • rebel dirt-crusted gray.o Every -fir
mer .is a ,provost tguard and feels _ it to' be
his duty, to sioirrist all deserters from the ,
rebel • army, as well as suepicioste-looking
individuals. About the time that General Hunter
threatened Lynchburg, he, with others, wap removed
to the pen at Indersonville, Go.. He was .11nite
durink his stay there, which was until General Sher
man captured Atlanta, when the Union sufferers in
that "dead pen" were distributed, in. Augusta,
Charleston, Savannah, and Columbia: Before Mr..
Stuck reached Charleston, his place of*destination,
he again attempted to escape, but was so weak that

who'd be in varying his story *little, as ho was con
fident that if obliged to submit to the inhuman
treatment accorded to - Union captives in Southern
prisons, he would be unable to survive it any longer.
He told the 01:ovost marshal on James Island that -
he was irom 'Virginia ; that his -name was .fohn

to fits; that he went out fishing the day be.

not credit the .story, and told -Mx. Stucke that he
believed he was a Yankee prisoner endeavoring to
make' his weeps . ; but, however, he forwarded him
to Captain Gear, provost marshal of Charleston,
who sympathized with -him, and believed his ac
count of himself, and kindly remark'ed that he
would send hini to the surgeon to be examined, who
would furnish hini with anothereertificate, when he
would give him a pass that would save him from all,
future trouble, and enable him to go wherever he
pleased. 'The surgeon, who seemed to understand
his case perfectly, said ho saw no evidence that he
had ever ;been. attacked with fits, bat what seemed'
to be the matter with hint was the irregularity of his

without anything to eat until Friday 'night, whiehO

the supposed Mr. French were several officers, : who .

allowed to pass across the hall between the rebel
caecripts and deserters and the Union officers, and
to enforce this rule two guardi were stationed
there to see to it. However, this did not pernitt the'

seen before, though he was hot acquainted, with
them ; and they, having satisfied themselies that
he was a genuine Union man, and that' his trim

some money; to make purchases ,for something . to

A correspondent of the New Xl:irk Tribune, writing
from near cedarCreek ,: Va., November etln relates
oilsTiaveriffiii* Cent:Badger with - guerillas*:
Captain TT:.l9?Elverenx Badger, acting assistant
adjutant generalof:Povrelas cavalry division, left
General Torbert's headipaartere, near. Cedar Creek,
on the morning ortlie 2d instentato'go tc:), Winehos

train; heavily guarded, had left'butain hour before, -
- and the Captain, being well mounted, thought it
prudent. „enough to• attempt to overtake it. He -
came in sight of it a half mile ahead of him, near
Newtown, and saw a dozen cavalrymen "riding
-leisurely a little distance behind the train, and ap.
parently acting as rear guard. He hailed them as
he approached; and was answered in a friendly way.
When seeing them dressed in our uniform; and
'wearieg the tith Corps badge, a Greek cross, he rode
unsuspiciously up among them, and found himself•
,and his men in the bands of the guerillas. With
revolvera at his head, he was prevented nem making .
any alarm, and was immediately run off into the
'woods, and robbed of his despatches and everything .
I valuable which he had about him, and harried .
away into the Blue Ridge Mountains, in cornpatly.
with nine more of oar men, who had been taken at
different times. ' •
"All right," said the Captain after they had
robbed him, "I suppose you Will now parole..me,
and Iffian go home and vote for Little Mac., I have
longawahted a furlough from this korrid and unna
tural *sr !"- •
" Not :much," replied the Johnnles ; "we are
ordered to hang every officer we can catch now-a'
days, in retaliation for our men who have been shot
as guerilla& You will swing , from a limb of that
tree toaliorrow morning at daylight, and, by. G--d,
`saltpetre shan't save you from it." . -
"We - would do it to-night, but for the fact that our
• officers are not here."
"Bitty" - replied the cool Captain, ."you can do
mach better with me than to hang me. Next Tries,
day is election, and if Little Mao should be elected
thereawill'be 'an immediate cessation of hostilities,'
and.weamay be able to fix tip things. It will at least
be equal to a new army to you to get a three-months
armistice." •
ThlE:remark led to uell discussion, and, with .
the aid of a little apple brandy from a neighboring
farmer, and a pipe or two, the conversation soon
,became, exceedingly friendly and confidential.
- While ono of the rebels was 'speaking, the Captain •
quietly whispered to one of his men to pass the
word.aronnd among the prisoners to watch a signal.
from him, and • make a dash upon the guard for their
escape.; Tbe men needed but a wink to be keenly
naivete the enterprise; The prospect of a winter
at the Libby was not inviting. They. had been
robbed of 'their clothing, wereallungry, and had ,had
but one drink,while the rebels were already:half
tipsy. As the eveniagadvineed, the revel rose.
Darkness set in, and story followed story, and joke
after:joke, many of them attributed by the Captain
to "Old Abe, the baboon," kept the party in a roar,
until the guard drew near to listen, and one of them
staggering up to. the. Captain, with his musket in
.oneaband, slapped him on the shoulder with the
other, and stuttered out, "Captain, you're a hell of
aefeller."
• 4, You're another," said the Captain as he seized
the musket, and, planting hie big foot in' the rebel's •
paunch at the same. instant, doubled him up, and
sent him wheeling into the large fire in front of him.
to the great confusion of the rest of the guard, who
'lnstantly rushed to his relief without thinking of
what was intended.
"Upon, them !" shouted the Captain, and, salting
the action to the word, he instantly sent the ball
from` his captured musket through one of them, and
the bayonet through another, and with one bound,
into the darkness escaped.
His men were no less adroit, and, taking adVala;
toga of the confusion, they dashed upon the aura
Weed rebels, snatched their muskets from them,
andaillieg three of them on the spot, wounded save
' fat others, and every man of them escaped unhurt.

which a Secesh press at that place was destroyed.

Moseby's and Stuart's Cavalry, Wes, in at private
letter, the following account of an open fight with
the celebrated Virginia guerilla.:
":You ask, are we after Moseby Yes. We keep
him in hot water most of the time. Saturday after
neon, six companies were ordered out on a scout,
under, aptain Lincoln, to go to lapperville, Va., to
move some negro families a few miles from camp,
and.we were skirmishing continually, front, rear,
and.both Banks. On our flank and rear, between us
and camp, we could see a column of rebels of .about
a hundred in number, while in every direction could
be seen squads of men from six to a dozen, who were
pretty careful to keep out of carbine range. • Some
were bold enough to come up• close and try to entree
us to charge them into the woods, where they could
cut us off with superior 'numbers, tint after one of
their number was shot and one horse wounded, they
desisted from such endeavors:
"At lapperville, on the plain made memorable by
two of our most successful cavalry fights of the war,
in November, 1862, and June; 185 a, between Pleas

Paul, in lls "ownimuntry, took an :appeal to Glaser,
and went from Judea across the Methterranean to
follow out his appeal' to Cleattr. After being ship
wrecked, and atter having - encountered; all manver
or dangers at Malta and elsewherer—dangers by sea
and land—he at -last reached .the coast of Italy,
landing at the Hot Springs, near Naples. Flom
there be proceeded up towards Rome, and when he
got within about eighteen miles of Rome, htioathe'
to .a place Called Appli Forum, or 'the Place of '
Three Taverns ; and it is recorded in Scripture that
the brethren, when he got within the suburbs of the
city, came out to meethan. Ttereupon Paul thanked
God; and took courage., So I think that, having
been tossed about on this tempest of secession and
revolution for three and a:hall years, I have
-at last
got to Apply Foram [laughter],-the Place of Three -
Taverns, although there is not a hotel on this street.
[Laughter.] •At all events arn,sure'ther brethren

the South, who used to. meet us up here in, the
Capitol, and with whom am 'used to have such
pleasant, gocial times; have pretended to sot up a
poor, rickety Congress 'and Government of their.
own. [Laughter.] And you' know what they did
it for? They did It because. they Were. afraid we
would abolish slavery. They. met in Richmond
the drat Monday of this month; and what do you •
think they met for 1 They met to abolish the slavery
of two hundred thotisand negroes, to put them With
the army, that they might fight to keep all the rest
of the negroes in slavery. [Laughter.]• Well, we
hive got our olafashioned, regular Congress; where
there are seats kept open for them yet, and it
meets on the first Monday in December. I am
much mistaken If we do not show our - Old friends
down South a trick worth ' two of that they
are practicing. lay Impression Is that, instead of
abolishing the slavery.of two hundred thousand ne•
groes, they will do the much better thing of setting
the constitutional stamp upon the President's eman
cipation proclamation of 1862. [Loud °keen.] - Why,
you seeni to be very unanimous about that. [Cheers.]'
Well, 1 w ill tell you what is more curious than alt
.that. Within three years from thistime they will
lie just as unanimous about It in Richmond as you
are here In Washington. Well, fellow-citizens, we.
have all got to befriends. [Cheers.] We have got
to.be friends with the Democrats, who hive been
voting against us, and we will balance the aocount•
by saying that we voted against them ; and if, now
that the election is over, they oonoluae to be quits,
we will agree to be all Union men hereafter, and
we will acknowledge that our party, as we saw
things, judged them pretty harshly. I presume .
that four years hence we will be in perfect harmony,
not; only throughout all thefree States but through
out
I
out the whole. Union. , [Cheers.] And will tell you
why I think thriti his will be so. I came otithis stage r
of action not long ago-Lsome years after the Revo
lutionary war—and I used tg hear my parents, and
the men and women of that age, talk about the vast'
number of Tories who were opposed ; to-the Govern
ment of the United StateB in • the Revolution; and-
what surprised me above all things was, that at the
expiration of thirty years afterwards there was not
a Tory to be found in the whole 'Wilted States.
[Laughter.] iI was never able to understand where
they bad all gone to.. It was, just so in the war of
1812. ,I am old enough to recollect about that. The
Federalists used to carry the lotervenlng.elections
between the Presidential elections year after year,
just as the Demecrals carried the election in. New
York < and moral of the other States in 1862 ; but
when-the - Presidential electioh came, and the war .
ended in victory, then the .Federaliste disappeared,
'and in two years after the war was over thee was an
"era of good feeling," in . which all the people were
republican; and all were in' favor of the war; and.
sinee.that time I 'have never been able to find an
old Federalist: [Laughter.] - It .Is my judgment
.that we will:all come together again; that when
the stars and stripes wave over Richmond' the
rebellion will go. 'down; and "that within one,
two, three '
, and four years after ' that, you will
' have to look mighty sharp to And a man ho was
ever a secessionist or an alder ofrebillion. [Cheers.]
I know that for that "era of good feeling" the De=
. mocrata will 'have every encouragement- to favor the
people inothe.success of thewar. . Speaking of that,
• I had understood our opponents to fray that this war
was a failure, and that it was made to abolish slave

which was to•preserVe tho Union, we will take. hem
on their own ground, and see how the matter-stands.
The first. year of the .war suppressed the African
slave trade in the United States ;_the second year of
the war brought the negroeifury to the level of sol

MURDER OP A COLONEL
IN OLBARFIELH COIINTY.
—On' Sunday, 90th ult., Col. Cyrus Butler • and
Lieut. Van Vleit made an attempt to arrest a shirk-.
er from the draft, named Lounsberry, at his home,-
about three miles north of Clearfield borough. Be.
Roving him to be at his houSe, they went to it on
Saturday night and lay in wait. Just as day was
breaking, on Sunday morning, Lounaberry Caine out
of the house and proceeded to the barn, probably for
the purpose of feeding his stock. The light was, as
yet, too indistinct to admit of. his .recognition to a
certainty, but on his return to the house all doubts
on this score were removed, and the officers at once
rapidlyiapproaohed the house in the hope of, pre-'
venting hie entrance. • This they would have suc
ceeded in had it not been for a second door on the,
rear side of the house, into which Lounsberry rushed,
clOsely pursued by the officers, who-called upon,
him to atop. This demand was-unheeded, and Loans=
berry ran up stairs, followed by Butler and' Van
Visit. IThe,stairway was- tea narrow' to admit of
more than one ascending, except by ' following each
other. 'Butler went up ahead, Van Vleit following
close after. Col. Butler had- proceeded nearlyy to
the top:of-the stairs, when Lounsberry fired at him
with a rifte,Trom inside of the door, the ball taking
effect in the left side of the abdomen of Butler, who
at once fired upon Lounsberry with a navy revel,.
ver, with.what effect was not known.. Lounsberry
then rushed out and Struck Butler across the head
with suck force that he broke the' gun-stook, - and
then grappled Lieut.:Van Visit. In this enoonnter
the latter dropped his _revolver, but struck Loans.,
