Colonel J. B. Sweitzer.— The Boston
Adveritzer of the 6th has the following
deserved tribute to our gallant fellow oit '
wens, Col. J. B Sweitzer, now acting
Brigadier General. We quote it with
pleasure, : Colonel Sweitzer, who has
. commanded the 2d Brigade, Griffin’s Di-I
vision, 6th Army Corps, Army of the Po
tomac (Griffin s old Brigade) is a gentle
man and soldier, everyway qualified to
succeed to the command left vacant by
1 an< l accomplished officer Gen
k assuming command of the
r irst Division. For this Brigade fought so
well °n the Peninsula, and has been so
trained .by General Griffin first and since
By Colonel Sweitzer, to move with Lhe
greatest celerity and to stand their ground
so firmly when that the hardest
duty of this kind is put upon it, and it :
5“ J° Bt jy. had conceded to it the name of '
the fighting and flying Brigade.” This
command is composed of the 9th and 32d
Massachusetts, 62d Pennsylvania and 4th “
Michigan. Both Gen. Griffin and Col.
oweitzer have acknowledged that their
be ?. t nTT nt - i8 the 3 ' 2d Massachusetts.
Col. Sweitzer being a lawyer of a
large practice, came ont in the 62d Penn
sylvania two years since as Major. He wbb
in all the hard fought battles of the Penin
sula, where he distinguished himself for
gallantry. At the battle of Gaines' Mills’
on the 27th of June, 1862, all of the Col.
onels and Lieutenants Colonels of this
brigade were called, and the command of
the 62d Pennsylvania fslling upon Major
owoit-zer, he was taken prisoner while
trying to assist another brigade which was
being cut to pieces, He went to Rich
mond, but was soon exchanged and re
turned to his regiment as Colonel.
At the battle of Antietam, Colonel
Sweitzer was selected by Gen. Griffin to
follow the rebels across the potomac. He
crossed the river in the night and returned
with five pieces of artillery, losing only a
n”ffi ber ° l m “ n ‘ Boon after this,
Gen. Griffin came into the command of
the division and Col. Sweitzer of the bri
gade. At the battle of Fredericksburgh-
December 13th, and the battle of Chan’
celiorsville, the latter was ever aclive and
handled his brigade very skillfully. At
the former battle two of his staff were
M l ., S r b A 3 u 8lda ;, Two da ? 3 before the
battle of Chancellorsville, the 6th corps
was sent off on a reoonnois3ance towards
Fredericksburg, and on its return Col.
sweitzer’s brigade, which was in the ad
vance in going out, but was then in the
rear, got cut off from the rest of the corps
and were surrounded by the enemy, and
it was not until after his skillful maneuver
'll 8 • v tro °P ß ior the greater part of
the night, that he succeeded in cutting
hie way out with his command and mak
ing a junction with Sykes’ division.
“In these two battles, as well as Gettys
tmrg, his troops took a conspicuous part.
At Gettysburg he was as brave as a lion,
regardless of his own personal safety, but
urging hie men on to victory. And when
he was ordered to advance on the enemy,
he went up to the very front, some dis
tance of his troops, with his brigade flag
flying by his side. Through some over
sight or bad management Col. Sweitzer's
brigade was left in the very front without
any support and it became flanked by the
enemy. It was then thought that the
whole brigade were prisoners. Bat Col.
Sweitzer was equal to the emergency, and
by aßkillfal movement withdrew his com
mand ; bat his loss was very heavy. His
command did not number more than 550
men when he went into the fight-only a
little over half what a full regiment should
be—-and out of this he lost one Colonel
and one Major killed, besides twenty-six
held and hoe officers killed or wounded,
and 800 men. The 9th Massachusetts was
on picket daty and not in the fight. Col
Sweitzer is the oldest, in rank, ot the Col
onels in the division, and has been in com
mand of the brigade for nearly ten months.
It is hoped that the President will gratify
both the officers and men of his brigade,
by conferring the star upon him, which he
haa fairly won.”

George H. Stewart —Chairman. —My
Dear Sir .- The young men of the Ander-
Bon Cavalry greatly need boobs to read.—
They are reading men. All their lives
they have, until now, had an abundance
of boob 3. The want, therefore, is now
the more keenly felt. A library suiting
their tastes and circumstances, of moderate
size, can be so arranged as to be easily
conveyed with them when they move.—
Two hundred dollars’ worth of books,
divided and kept in eight boxes, could be
transported in their company wagons,
without inconvenience, and would be a
great benefit and comfort to them. If
their friends in Philadelphia and Pitts
burgh will contribute the money, I will
send you a catalogue of the books select
ed by the Cavalry for you to purchase,
and.will carry out the plan as soon as the
books are forwarded.
Very trnly yours,
EDWARD P. SMITH.
Field Agent, Army of the Cumberland.
AU those who feel willing to*aid in car
rying out the above proposition may send
their contributions to Jos. Allen, Eaq.,
Treasurer of U. S. Christian Commission,
No. 71, Wood street, Pittsburgh who will
attend to their proper distribution.
Djed of Draft Fright.— E. Knapp
Perry, of Pottersville, Warren county,
died at the U. S. Hotel, in Plattsbnrg,
last week. He was drafted from his place
of residence, and visited Plattsbnrg for
the purpose of exemption. He was about
consummating a marriage engagement,
and the intelligence of hiß being drafted
so affected his affianced as to cause her
serious illness. This so worked upon Mr.
P,’b mind as to terminate in fearful de
rangement and death. Deceased was 26
years of age, and was a medical student
of rare astainments.
A Tall Boldier. David Van Buskirk’
who is a Captain in the Twenty-seventh
Indiana regiment, and a native of Monroe
county in that State, is the tallest man in
the Army of the Potomac. He is 6 feet
11 indhes in his stockings, and weighs 260
pounds. In the last year’s campaign in
Virginia, he and other tall men of his reg
iment were taken prisoners and carried to
Richmond, where they created quite a sen
sation among the rebels, who were sur
prised to learn that the North-western
states produced such men.
? OW r ™„ SiVE Your Money.-THom
ands of dollars are annually lost through
the want of decent pocket books. Money
and ‘“ rnst into loose pock

as thrown away. All this can he reme

G. D. CLOWKB,

Edward Davison,
Committee on Caid.
The above resolntion was sent ub some
aayß ago, which will be laid before the
Monument Committee. The parties com
plaining would have exhibited better taste
by making personal application and as
certaining whether any exertion had been
made to collect money and carry out the I
original design of erecting a suitable mon
ument. To our certain knowledge the
committee frequently met—advertised to
the public, through all the papers of the
city, where subscriptions would be re
ceived, not a dollar was subscribed on
the part of the community, and the eum
plainants had better visit their reflections
upon the whole people rather than upon
the committee.
Attachment Refused.—A case of some
importance was before Judge Buffingtoi,
■ at Greensburg last week. Writs of habeas
corpus had been granted, returnable at
Lonrt, commanding Captain W. B. Coni
ter, Provost Marshall of the 21st Dis
trict, to bring up the bodies of certain
pe ™°P B — J - B " Wagner, George S. Brown
and Mr, Serena—who were in his custody
to do and abide by such orders as the
Court direct. Capt. Coulter refus.
ed to obey the writs—denying the juris
diction of State Courts. On Wednesday
Messrs Latta, Given and W. H. Stewart
attorneys for Relstors, moved the Court
to decree that Captain W. B. Coulter, the
Respondent, he committed to the custody
of the Sheriff, without bail or mainprizs,
as for a contempt of the Conn in refus
ing to answer to writs of habeas corpus
heretofore awarded against him at the re
lation of Wagner Brown and Serena.
After a full hearing, his Honor J. Buffing
ton (Judge Given diseenting) refußed to
award an attachment, and dismissed the
motion.
Allegheny Fire Department. —(lres',
complaint has been made by the citizens
of the First and Second Wards of Alle
gheny, agatnst Lhe management of the tire
department. Jt seems that the Hope fire
engine has only Bix sections of hose, and
not fit for use at that ; whilst the Colum
bia has on only five sections, ditto. Tois
a totally inadequate for those two large
wards, particularly, if hre breaks out at
7 distance from the plugs, the nearness
of which, was the only solution, of the
property in the vicinity of the late (Ire
that destroyed the white lead factory of
B. D. Fahnestock & Co. The citizens of
those are determined to take the
matter in hand if the councils won’t.
Drugs.— Messrs. A. J. Rankin A Co ,
Urnggists, No. G 3, Market strert, are re
ceiving a large and well selected stock of
goods in their line, comprising a complete
and well selected assortment of Drugs,
Perfumery, and toilet articles. Mr. Ran
kin, the active member of the firm, is a
thorough Druggist, having long experi
lnr.L-? H' 1 ? 1 '?® 88 ’ and being a graduate
of the Philadelphia College of Pharmacy
He employs none but attentive and com
potent assistants, and those desiring pre -
scriptions filled need have no fear of mis
takes. Wholesale and retail buyers will
find it to their interest to give them a call.
American House, Boston.— We take
pleasure in calling attention to the adver
tisement of this house in to-day's paper.
It has won a reputation as a hotel, under
the direction of its landlord, Mr. Rice,
which has secured it popularity with the
traveling public not surpassed by any sim
ilar house.in the United States. It is
Bpactous, conveniently arrauged, well su
perintended in all its departments, nnd
presents as many comforts for the enjoy
ment of its lodgerß as can be tonnd between
the four walls of any dwelling for the way
farer.
Attachment.— Christiana Urban was
yesterday lodged in jail on a writ of at
tachment issued by Judge Sterritt, for her
appearance at the next term of Court.
This young girl, whose stepfather, Adam
Oxenhart, is held under bail on the charge
of inceßt, was believed to have been spir
ited away as tho principal witness against
him, hence the issuing of the writ of at
tachment.
New Well. —On Saturday last, a new
well, pumping about forty barrels, was
struck on the Rynd Farm. The narties
owing it are, J. M. Kier, J. D. Humes,
Joseph Crawford, and Thomas Brown.
We are glad to record the good fortune of
these gentlemen, and hope the well will
increuse to a thousand barrels a day.
Special notice to Housekeepers. —At
McClelland’s Auction House, 65, Fifth
street, will be sold a large and extensivo
variety of good furniture, bedding, show
case, stove, ect. Sale at 10 o’clock pre
cisely. This is a rare chance and should
not be forgotten. •
Still Living.—Up to the last moments
yesterday evening, Daniel Feokeisen,
who bo rashly attempted to take his life
on Thursday afternoon, was still living,
but still in a critical condition ; if he re
covers at all, it will be almost a miracle.
It is interesting to know that a hollow
shot weighing eighty pounds is thrown
from a one hondreiponnd Parrott 8,463
yards, with a charge of No. 5 powder the
Bame shot can be thrown 8,846 yards.
I his is forty five yards over five miles.

CAVALRY DEMONSTRATION
New York, Sept. 11.—The fall in go ld
to-day ie attributed to the Benaation re
portn, from Philadelphia, of the surrender
of Charleston. They are, doubtless, im
aginary.
A Washington letter states that General
Ripley has returned to duty as Chief of
the Ordnance Bureau, and Gens. Meigs
and Taylor will also return to their Bu- j
reaus, from which they have been absent
only temporarily. j
Since Sunday the rebel cavalry in small
force has been demonstrating on Haxall
Run. They, in every instance, hove been
driven off, and it is not anticipated that
the advance means any prelude to a gen
eral movement of the rebels.
Washington, SeV 11. -All the mem
bers of the Cabinet are now in Washing
ton, Seretary Welles having just returned
from the North..
Boston, Sept. 11.—A fire, early this
morning, destroyed the boiler works,
-blacksmith shop and machine shop of the
Globe Iron Works, in South Boston. Thei
