William Gray Murray, was engraved from an ambrotype likeness, taken a year or two since, and pronounoed at the time a most faithful and accurate picture. We submit it, therefore, to the read ers of the TELEGRAPH, as a memento of one whose death has been so widely mourned, and whose deeds have contributed so extensively to the honor and glory of the Union. We will not repeat the events in the life of Col. Murray, nor allude again to the sad occurrence of his death. The first will always be preserved, fresh, green, and grate ful in the recollection of his friends, while the latter must pass out of memory as grief is assuaged and time affords to those who loved him best, its sweet and soothing consolation. A correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette has given as an amusing sketch or two from Nash ville: One of the city officials, in conversation the Other drip, said that when the Confederates re turned to poasess the ally, as . they certainly ,wonld,lie4iesired to be close behind the retreat ing Federals, with a good gun,. that he might shoot as many as possible. Owing to the high price of marketing and dry goods, I predict' he will ,tte one of the very first to go forward arid' swear that he will support the Constitution of the,United States against foreign invasion and domestic insurrection—any law or ordinance of . a State or convention to the contrary notwith standing.

Bat yester-.' day a gentleman mentioned incidentally in my hearing a brilliant feat of knightly, divinity, which I had not heard before. J. B. Al!Farin B. D., chief priest of the Southern .Methodist -publishing house, who. was busy last summer making secession speeches, took an active part, just before the surrender. of Fort Donelson, in the pike movement. On one occasion, he mus tered all the operatives of the publishing howie, and required them to join In. the general drill.. While he stood before theta with a pike in his hand discanthig on the great things to be effected with this invention of old John Brown, some one mentioned the word " run." " Run from Lincoln I" ex claimed the sanguinary prophet, " Never I" What a brave member the tongue is! When the running time came, our apostolical pike man was one of the first to take Jack Fahtaff's counsel. Re left without waiting to gather np his negroes, of whom he has many. One Jonas, a thieving rascal, whom he has had in the Book Concern for many years, employed at good wages, being left among the rest, the Doctor'of Divinity took it in his head, after an absence of about two weeks, the boy might serve hint well as squire in knight errantry. So he slipped back to this Lincolnized city to carry him swap. Bat Jonas, I learn, was in the whale's belly— bad_ rem Away, like hie master.'

Tau Rum °mason ON ova Dsen.—The 'committee on the conduct of the war have been taking testimony as to indignities and outrages perpetrated upon our wounded on the battle field at Ball Run, and upon the dead at subsequent periods. The testimony is full and reliable, and confirms all that were been published. Several surgeons who were taken prlsoners, , ItiOretts and L Ohm, ;have sworn to acts committed by rebels - on our wounded soldiers that would ,disgrme a nation of savrigeS. The - malignant'hate and fiending) depravity displayed are almost incredible. Sev eral Rhode Wand_ officers and otners testified to the treatment of our elead—skulls made into drinking cups, bones made into drum sticks, rings, &c., were produced. Alderman Brooklyn, has been four days trying to rescue the.remains of his son, who was kill ed on the memorable Sunday, and who had been buried by his... comrades. But the body has been dug up and the bones taken way. In malty instances the bones had been pried out of the shallow graves by the.rebels, and the battons, clothes, bones, all taken away as tro phies. Testimony has been taken from the people residing near there which shows thit the atrocities were mostly committed by the .Loilisiana Tigers and Colonel Bartow's Georgia Regiment.

F:(IIgfziIEOIVIDVQ; xi31,10/-NVWDI He reviewed the causes assigned for the re bellion,. which were as canadesa and senseless as the rebellion was malignant and wicked. The ernendation of southern leaders and slave holders was, at the origin, stimulated by the Lust for power and arrogance. Years ago they commenced the work upon national disintegration. Having ceased to control the government they sought to re-construct it with African slavery as the corner stone and over it exercise their former sway. He would punish the authors of this war as far as the Conetitu ticin permits. The insurrection must be put down. It was time for the people of tho South and European nations to understand that the people of the North are in earnest in this mat ter,and before they will submit to the triumph of this-rebellion they will, should the necessi ties of the war as a last resort require it, arm every slave of the rebel masters, drive the rebels, beyond their borders, and hold the ter ritory for the home of the liberated negroes. Mr. Carrresmor, (Ky.), said we are in no sum mer sea. We are in the midst of a storm of war. The country was convulsed from one end to the other. This state of affairs was enough to put all men on their deepest sense of respon sibility, and he had felt it to an oppressive de gree. This rebellion was without parallel in the history of the world. Where did rebellion ever assume such gigantic proportions as this! Where was there so much to be destroyed, whether we consider the national prosperity of the beneficial institutions invalid ; but the immediate question was the abolition of slavery in the District of Culumbi r. For the first thirty or forty years of our existence perhaps the records of Congress bear no trace of a mea sure contemplating such a change ofconditiou. The proposition had been rejected time and time again in the palmiest days of the republic. It was judged impolitic by the predecessors of the gentlemen now here. The Senate, however, had just passed the bill, which was now before the House for its action. What practical good or advantage would be derived from its becoming a law. Apart from ot•hericonsideratiores, this is a most inauspicious time for such action. Would not the passage of the bill strengthen them in the belief that such .is the purpose of Congress It would be considered by the rebels as the general purpose to interfere with slavery in the States. He repeated that this territory was ceded for a single purpose. Mr. Bisansat, (Ohio,) remarked that consid ering the time which had elapsed since this bill was introduced, an opportunity having been given to the country in the meantime to 'judge of the propriety of its provisions, he had hoped that the questionwoukt have been taken with out further discussron. • Kr. Wecomir's substitute was rejected-85 against 84. Mr. Morass offered a entotittite,.that obildren born of slaves on and after the first of May, be free, and at eighteen assert their freedom, eto. Disagreed to. Tie committee rose and the bill was presented to the Hone precisely as it came from the Senate: Mr. &LW= moved the previous question, which was seconded, and the bill was passed— yeas 98, nays 89. Adjourned till Monday. Hiring military Substitutes at Bich- A Richmond correspondent of the New Or leans Oreirant says : Our chief article of commerce now-a-days, is a commodity known in the market as "substi tutes.", The article has risen from $lOO to $200,-egain to $5OO, and from that to $l,OOO and $1,500. The cheapest kind now offering $5OO readily. A wretch, named Hill, has been making enormous sums, as much as from $B,- 000 to $5,000 a day, by plundering substitutes. some of whom are the very scum of the earth, while others are poverty-striken Marylanders of high social'position at home, and men of real moral worth. A friend of mine bought a sub stitute from Hill for $5OO. He saw Hill give the poor devil $lOO and pat the remaining $4OO in his pocket: As my friend went out the door, he met a gentleman, who told him he hid just,paid $1,500 for a substitute. On this sum, it is possible the substitutes re ceived $2OO , and hill the other $1,300. To-day . he went up Main street with at least fifty men at his heels. You may, therefore, infer that he coins money more rapidly than the Yankee distiller, Stearns, is now in jail with Botts, who Used to make four thousand dollars a' day, by furnishing his vile stuff to Southern soldiers.— The fact is, this business of buying and selling substitutes is abominable all around. The men who come here from the country to buy them are run,mad until they get them—they are absolutely crazy with fear lest they should fail to obtain them—and seem willing to spend their last dollar in the effort. On the other hand, the exhibition of his person, to which the substitute is subjected, Is ridiculous and disgusting. He Is stripped to the skin, per cussed, asculated, examined from top to toe, like a horse showing of his paces. A lovely business truly. Amman Mmunxeo.
