ANDERSONVILLE,
A STORV OF SOITIIEUX MILITARY
PRISONS."
Tie Must Snccexsfal Book Since Uncle
Tom's Cabin" Twenty Thousand Copies
Sold Before One Printed & Graphic
Story of a Private Soldier's Experience in
Richmond, Jndcrsonville, Sar&nnak, Mil'
ten, Blackshear, Charles:on and Florence
No book siuce "Uncle Tom's Cabin" has
had the unparalelled success that has at-
tended the publication in the form of a co-
pionsly Illustrated volume of a scries of ar
tides that ran thru the Toledo Blade last
year under the title of Andcrsonrille ; a
Story of Southern Military Prisons." Such
was the interest aroused by the subject, and
the fascinating manner in which it was
treated that the mere announcement that
the t-ketchts w ere to be reproduced in book
form was stiftVient t- bring in orders for
tnore than 2".XK) copies before one Was
printed, ar.d though the volume has been
upon the market now less than lour months,
the s.'!cs have nearly reached 40,(K0, with
every prospect that that figure will be dou
bled or trebled before the year is out. Cer
tainly no book ever sold itself to the extent
that this one has, btcaitse the efforts to in
troduce !'. any here have been of the slight
est, and in much the greater part of the
country none w hatever have been made.
There is a-decp fascination in the subject
of AndersonviH.-, for that Golgotha, in
w hich lie the w hitening bones of 13,1X1) gal
lant young men, represents to theja very
much of the dearest and costliest sacrifice
of the war for the preservation of our na
tional unity. It is a type, too, of its class.
Its more than hundred hecatombs of dead
represeut several times that number of their
brethren, for whom the prison gates of Belle
Isle, Danville, Salisbury, Florence, Colum
bia and Cabawba opened only in eternity.
There are few lamili-s in the North who
haw m-t at least one dear relative or friend
unioi:g the "?P,XJ(J whose sad fortune it was
to end their service for the Union by lying
down and dying for it in a Southern prison
pen. The manner of their death, the hor
rors that clustered thickly around every
inoment of their existence, the loyal, un
faltering steadfastness with fhich they en
dured all that Tate brought them has never
been adequately told. It was not with
them as with their conirmles in the field,
whose every act was performed in tbe pres
ence of those wbase duty it was t observe
such matters and report t!cn t the world.
Hidicu f-oin the view of th-ir friends in
the North by ttu Impenetrable vet! which
the military oj-Crations of tho Rcti-ls drew
around the so-called Confederacy, the pe
ple knew next to nothing of their career or
their sulfrinirs. Thousands died there less
heeded even than tho hundreds who per
ished on the battle-field. Grant did not
lose as many men, killed outright, in the
terrible campaign from the Wilderness to
the James River 13 days of desperate
fighting as died in July and August at An
rlersonville. Nearly twice as many died in
that prison fell from the day that tJrant
trussed tho Knpidan, till he settled down
into the trenches before Petersburg. More
than four times as many Union dead lie un
der ttie solemn, southing pines about that
forlorn little Village in Southern Georgia
than mark the course of Sherman from
Chattanooga to Atlanta. Tin Nation stands
aghast at the expeuditure of life which at
tended the two bloody campaigns of lSiii,
which virtually crushed the Confederecy,
but no one remembers that more Union sol
diers died in the rear of the Ueb-jl lines
thau were killed in front of them. The
great military events that stamped out the
Rebellion drew attention away from the sad
drama which Starvation and Disease played
in the gloomy pens in the far recess" of
sombre Southern forests.
The author begins with an account of the
raid made into the enemy's country by the
cavalry command in which he was serving
as an enlisted man. They meet tbe Rebel
cavalry, and after a sharp tight, worst it
bad:y, sending it flying from the field. For
while the Union cavalry live olf the fat
ness of the laud, but at length they are
trapped into a narrow valley, and alter a
de.perate resi starve, ft.e all captured, and
sent to Richmond. . To mouths of hard
ship and exposure on Bell Isle, and in the
tobacco factories end by their being sent to
Audersonville the author arriving in the
first squad that enters the pen. Then en
sues six months of terrible suffering, in
which four out of five of those around him
die. This is ended by the fait of Atlanta,
immediately upon which the Rebels, fearful
of the saf ety of so great a mass of prison
ers in such proximity to the National lines
as the f all of that stronghold has brought
about, hurry the bulk of them off to other
and more remote places of confinement.
The author is first taken to Savannah ;
after a short stay there, to Millen ; thence
to Savannah again ; thence to Blackshear,
where he is paroled and sent back to Savan
nah again, ostensibly to be exchanged, but
really to get him and bis companions safely
past Sherman's advancing lines and tke
them to Florence, S. C, where they are
kept Cntil th Confederacy began going to
pieces in March, 18C1.
Into this warp and woof of daily history
are woven numberless bits of fascinating
description of thrilling incidents, and even
laughable episodes for there was fun even
in that dreary experience. Among the
most thrilling recital to be found anywhere
is that of the story of tho fights with and
the capture and execution of the "Raiders,-'
a bai.d of murderous desperadoes who in
fested the prison, and six of whom were
banged ta ierrorem. as a punishment for
their multifarious offenses. This is the only
full and accurate account of this noted epi
sode that bas ever been written. Many ver
sions have been given of this, but they have
all been written by men who were misin
formed as to tbe real facts in tbe Case. The
author, being one of the very few of those
now living who were actively identified with
the affair from first to last, has exceptional
tnowledge of that of which he, speaks.
- Letters from more than 8,000 surviving
prisoners testify in the strongest terms to
the wonderful accuracy of the book. Such
a testimonial uufleckt by a single dissent
from any living prisoner is one of the mar
vels of current literature.
The tress has been no less kind to the
book than the general public, and it has re
ceived the highest ealogiums from political,
religions and literary papers, which nnite in
ajing that for vividness of description,
realism of detail, and fascination of style It
ba no equal in the literature- of the war.
The book contains 666 large, handsomely
printed pages illustrated with 15 pictures
drawn under the author's supervision. Pub
lished at Toledo, Ohio, by D. R. Locke, and
sold by subscription at $3.00 per copy ; the
best selling book for agents in the market.
Agents wanted for every township in the
United States.
COMMUNICATION.
Kkhfield, Pa., March 80, 1880.
tidUor Sentinel and i?rAicaDearSir,
Considerable time has elapsed since our last
communication; concerning our Institute,
appeared in your paper. The schools
throughout the township have drawn to a
close, and, as far as we know, have met
with the approbation of the patrons. The
Institute met weekly, at the appointed place,
and discussed various educational topics,
and even nnto the cloie was not devoid of
that energy put forth by the teachera in the
beginning, and for which it was so distin
guished. On Saturday, March 20th, Super
intendent Smith and J. A. Zellers were with
ns, and took part in the exercises. It was
thei announced that on Friday evening fol
lowing an Institute would be held, and that
the County Superintendent wonld be pres
ent. So when the time arrived, a large
concourse of people bad assembled. After
a few preliminary remarks, an essay was
read by Miss Kinzer, entitled Light" An
essiy was read by P. O. Shelly, entitled
"Earnestness." An address was then de
livered on the Characteristics of a Good
Teacher," by Rev. II. S. Basom ; another
on "Gratification and Service of Knowl
edge," by J. N. Johns. The above all ac
quitted themselves with great credit. Su
perintendent Smith then addressed the In
stitute, and commended tbe teachers vry
highly for their noble work. Owing to the
lateness of the hour, the Institcte then ad
journed.
On Saturday morning an exercise was
given on Punctuation, by Peter Ruiufeld ;
on Grammar, by Superintendent Smith;
on general Spelling, by 11. S. Basom. The
above subjects were all very Interesting,
and were conducted in such a manner as to
impart valuable information. As the schools
are all closed, and tbe teachers separating,
the Institute cloned also. It has been a
subject of general remark that a treat deal
of good was accomplished through it. Its
advantage were two-fold : It stored the
teachers' minds with useful information in
the various branches taught, and the un
paralleled success with which the schools
met is pirtly dun to it. Long will it bo re
membered by the community.
Yours respectfully,
J. L. ZIMMERMAN, Sec'y.
As exchange writes on the subject of a
" girl's eleven years," after which it is in
order for otik one to write of a " boy's
eleven years" :
At seventeen the girl thinks often of love ;
delights in love songs ; fills Moore's poems
with pencil marks; thiuks Byron's face
beautiful ; eats IUe in company. At eigh
teen, still thiuks a great deal of love;
would care nothing for poverty, providing
she had a sweetheart who adored her; in
deed would rattier be poor than rich were
she united to the ideal wh mi she hss not
yet met. Stiil reads a great deal of poetry
and novels which deal largely with love and
the death of the heroines ; passionately
fond of children. At nineteen, a little more
critical; finds some of the poetry that
pleased her last year a li tie weak ; looks
about for steadier authors than her old fa
vorites; dances every dance at a bill, and
is not quite o particular as t the men who
are introduced to her. At twenty, is not
sure, after all, whether it is not better to be
an old man's darling. Nevertheless, she
flirts more utilonitly ; all her shyness is
gone, and she enjoys her food whether peo
ple are looking at Ler or not. At twenty
one her belief in old men Is strong; she
has lost her prejudice in favor of poverty
and cottages, yet she would not insist npon
money were her ideal to present himself.
At twenty-to, thinks her youngest sister
rather forward in her manner, particularly
with young tftn ; sometimes suggests to
mamma that the invitations which include
the youngest sister are merely acts of po
liteness w hich people do not want to be lit
erally interpreted. At twenty-three is an
noyed if any one says in her presence that
the pallor of half the girls that one meets
comes from tight-lacing. At twenty-four,
laces deliberately for a waist, and does not
much mind it if it is known; finds the com
pany of old men alway? more agreeable than
than of yonr.g men, and is flattered if boys
pay her attention. At twenty-five, is found
behind bazaar stalls, imitates the style tf
the fashion-beauty; frequently alters the
style of her cciffnre, and uses a great many
different kinds of suff for her hair. At
twenty-six, declares that she hates the idea
of marriage, wonders how girls can volun
tarily enter a state of bondage; marks all
passages in novels in which are called ty
rants, and ceases to notice other people's
babies. At twenty-seven falls in love;
about four months of quiet anguish and
despair ; sits late into the night alone in her
room; writes twenty letters in all conceiv
able styles from the passionately scornful
to the mild, forgiving, heart-breaaing style
none of which are posted; destroys the
ball room programme on which he has writ
ten his namo.

The Lewistown Gazette says, the late cold
high winds of March have had a bad effect
on the wheat fields throughout the valley.
Wheat that looked green and promising
through the winter, is now faded and pre
sents a blistered appearance, with the soil in
places blown away from the roots. Peaches
are said to be killed by an ice that remained
on the trees not long ago, about 20 hours.
The Huntingdon Local Xews tells the fol

A mistake found its way into tbe ool
umns of the Sentinel and Republican last
week ; it was an announcement that the
Post of the O. A. R. had held a cake walk
in Mickey's Hall in Patterson, for the pur
pose of raising money to equip a band for
the Post. The Post of the G. A. R. has
never held a cake-walk, and the mistake in
the paper was in confounding the Post band
with the Post of the G. A. R. It was the
Post band that gave or held tbe cake-walk.
The 1st of April story that got the ear of
Philadelphia "was that little girl was car
ried off skyward by being tied to a large
number of toy balloons. The story which
excited Altoona was that of the finding of
gold in the mountains near the town. The
story that excited Washington was that
which declared that Mexico had offered to
place itself under the management of Gen
eral Grant, provided he be elected Presi
dent, and provided the United States agree
to par the indebtedness of Mexico, which
is said to be $80,000,000.
On Monday, the 5th inst., John Viol, a
miner, met with a serious accident while
putting off a blast in the mines, near Qra
hamville, Fermanagh township. He was
blasting in a damp rock, and supposing that -
the powder had missed igniting, ho pro
ceeded to examine the cause. When with
in a short distance of the place the blast,
went off, knocking him senseless. Pieces
of slate and rock penetrated his right eye,
cheek, chest, and arm. The injuries were
surgically attended to by Dr. Banks, and at
last reports he was convalesing.
John Ilollobaugh and son, and William
Books, all together, started at midnight in
a carriage, on the last night of the month of
March on a journey to Lost Creek to fish
for trout. They got as far as to East Point,
when something got wrong with the shafts
of the carriage, and the wrong was not made
right till the horse had kicked himself clear
of the vehicle, which was not done till the
party was hauled around onto Washington
street to the vicinity of the Presbyterian
church. There tbe horse got away, and
was not seen by any of the people he so un
ceremoniously left, till about 9 o'clock on
the 1st of April, when he was found tied to
a fence in the vicinity of Cuba Mills. It is
not every one that has such an experience
when on a fishing excursion.
