ants,lnt the bystanders. The ladles, God bless
them! - with the t hing suffering for which they
are proverbial - will bear a deal of gossip but
the men, being made (4 . sterner stuff, soon weary
of the monotony, unless the tittle-tattle be un
usually personal. For instance, articles com
mencing with, ".The filthy trash with which
our 'vulgar minded opponent has so plentifully
begpattered his readers," etc., etc.; or, " Our
miserable contemporary last week attempted
in hilwontexl foul-mouthed style of slang and
renown to overwhelm us, us! with an avalanche
of vile copper-woolyhendisms, but we warn the
groveling miscreant that," etc., etc. -
We were cheered one day last week by a
friendly ,visit from Mrs. Grundy's sister, who,

us the following for publication, suggesting its

arrival at F— we found to our surprise that
the suit was brought by the father of the youth.
We proved by the young man himself that the

decided that as the purehaser'was not quite

THE REBEL DEAD AT GETTYPBURG.—From

,in this conflict, the bodies of WhOm are still

three hundred and twenty-five Confederates
Slain; and elsewhere in a single trench, two
hundred and fifty more. A considerable por
tion of the battle ground is likely to be plowed
up - this spring and summer, by farmers owning
it, preparatory to planting corn and other
grain. As a matter of course, the Confederate
&Aires must be obliterated, and the trenches
which now indicate their places.- - There is a
strong desire with tlie people in respect to hu

Horrible Butchery of Our Tioops.
CAIRO, ILL., April 14.--On Tuesday' morn
ing Porrest, with some 6,000 men, attacked
Fort'Pillow. Soon after the attack Forrest
sent a flag of truce demanding the surrender of
the, fort and garrison, in the meanwhile dispo
sing his force so as to gain an advantage.
Maj. Booth, of the 3d Tennessee United States
Heavy Artillery, formerly the Ist AlabainaCav
airy (colored), refused to receive the flag of
truce and fighting was resumed.
Afterwards a second flag clone in, which was
also refused. Both flags gave the rebels the
advantage of gaining new positions.
The battle was kept up till 3 o'clock P. M.,
when• Maj. Booth was Stilled and Maj.-Bradford
took command. The rebels had come in swarms
-over our troops, compelling them to surrender
Immediately upon the surrender, there en
sued a scene which utterly baffles description.
Up to that time comparatively few of our men
were killed, but, insatiate as fiends and blood
'thirsty as devils incarnate, the Confederates
commenced an indiscriminate butchery of the
whites and blacks including those of both colors
who had been previously wounded.'
The dead and wounded negroes "were piled
in heaps and burned, and several citizens Who
joined our forces for protection, were killed or
• t
wounded. -
The black soldiers. becoming -demoralized,
rushed to the rear, their white, officers having
thrown down their arms. l3oth white and
Mail were bayonetted, shot or sabred, and even
ad bodies were horribly mutilated. Children
of seven or eight years of age, and several negro
women were killed in colblood. Soldiers un
able to speak, from their wounds, were shot dead
and their bodies 'rolled down the hanks into the
river.
I `, Out Of a garrison of 600 men only 200 re
mained
Among our dead ioffieerii are Capt. Bradt*Ord,
Licuts. Barr, Aekerstrom, 'Wilson, Revel and
Mnj. Booth,.all of the 13th Tennessee Cavalry ;
Capt. Posten, Lieut. Lyon, of the 13th Tennes
see, and Capt. Young, of the 24th Missouri,
Acting Provost Marshal, were taken prisoners.
Maj. Bradford was also taken, but is said to have
escaped. It is feared, however, that t he haS
been _killed.
The steamer Platte Valley came up about 3,
o'clock. Shwas -hailed by the rebels under a
flag of truce and her men sent ashore to bury
the dead and take aboard such of the wounded
as the rebels had allowed to live. Irifty-seven ,
were taken aboard ; including seven or eight'
colored men., Eight of them died on the way,
up. The steamer arrived here this evening and
was immediately sent to the Mound City hospi
tal to discharge her suffering passengers.—
Among the wounded of the colored troops are
Capt. Porter, Lieut. Libberts and A(.klutatit Lem
ming.
Six guns were captured by the rebels and
carried off, including two 111-pound parrotte
and two 12-pound howitzers. A large amount
of stores were destroyed -and earned away.
The intention of the rebels seemed to he to
evacuate the place and move on towards Mem
