THAT TERRIBLE REBELLION.—Ye are
constantly reminded (says the Harrisburg
Telegraph) of the terrible loss of life — during
the late war; by the publication on the part
of the Quartermaster General of "Rolls of
a 1 -12:11ritiMall 4110.14177,
of which have already been published, five
are now in the hands of, the printers, and it
will take six more to complete the number.
Those lists will contain a list of graves of
nearly 200,000 - Soldiers, with the records of
the place where the remains are found, and
- a - list of nearly 100,000 graves which are yet
unknown, but which existing records may
identify. Careful records of everything found
__with each body,-and-all-that-could-serve-to
help identify, have been preserved. The
Quartermaster General reports that the wood
-en-boa rds-are-fast-decaying- i and-recom men ds-1
hollow rectangular blocks of galvanized iron,
filled with earth or cement.
By the Rolls of Honor, and the data, it
appears that nearly 400,000 Union men laid
down their liveslO save this country—fully
as many ...are now enrolled as militia in this
great Commonwealth. As to the treatment
of their murderers, we occasionally receive
telegrams similar to those dated at Richmond
yesterday. "The farm of Ex Governor Wise,
in Princess Anne county, so long held by
the Government, was yesterday surrendered
to the owger by the United States authori
ties"—of course appointed by the President,
or under his direction. In addition to that
we learn that "the Government also yester
day ordered the payment of rents to the own•
er of the Libby prison for three years' use
of it." Could anything be more forgitiog
o r merciful for murders committed than
that ? The owners not only escape punish •
ment for the irreparable injuries they have
done the nation, but receive their property
back, after once being to all intents and put..
- poses confiscated—and 'advanced in value at
t hat.
SW - A letter has been received at St.
Louis from General Sheridan which puts at
pest all the stories that the Indians recently
so severely punished by General Custer be
longed to a friendly tribe. They we-e Chey
ennes and Sion; and among the spoils found
in their camp were the horses stolen from
Clarke's train, and photographs and other
articles taken from the houses robbed in
Kansan last , fall. General Sheridan states
that the reservations on which these In
dians are placed abound with game, and that
the Government makes a great mistake in
providieg them with any great amount of
food. General Sheridan thinks that the
fi;bt is pretty well knocked out of the In
dians.

STRANGE, IF TRUE.—The York Press is
credibly informed that Mr. Eany, engineer
on the locomotive "L ad y Washington,"
which collided with the engine of the 'Liight,
ai•oommodation a few nights since, at Bed
Bank., on the Northern Central railroad, had
a supernatural vision of this fatal casualty a
few hours previous to its occurrence. It ap-
pears that be was lying at Bridgeport, with
his ongiue, awaiting the arrival of the night
occommodation train, and being somewhat,
fatigued and drowsy, he fell asleep for an
hour or eo. Irfdle. asleep he bad the full
particulars of the collision revealed in a
dream. Every incident connected with the
svi affair was as minutely and graphically
postrayed as it really occurred. When be
woke up, seeing a train on the track just
above him, ha took it fur granted that it
was the one for which he was waiting. He
then proceeded on his journey down the road
and met with the disaster It also says the
et edition of Mr. Bony is critical, although
some hopes are entertained by his physician
that lie wi I recover.

Geo. Deader,

Miss M. C•. SHowbarger,
kirThere seems to be'a prevailing dearth
in 'local matters' as well as 'money matters.'
Even marriages arc getting to be a rarity.--
Matrimony involves responsibilities which
Bachelors seem unwilling to assume. Fa
ding damsels have certainly cause for de
spondency under the existing state of affairs.
iteirTo day we enter upon the Holiday
season. From time immemorial it has been
a custom during this season to present and
receive gifts. In the general distribution
the poor should be remembered, especially
the scantily clad little ones, heirs to poverty,
through fate or misfortune. There ar e
doubtless those in our town and neighbor
hood without sufficient clothing to protect
their frail forms from the chill winds of win
ter. In the distribution of 'gifts such should
not be forgotten. "Ho that giveth to the
poor lendeth to the Lord."
airOn the Ist of January every man
ought to pay up his debts, and start oat
with the new year without owing any one a
cent. We therefore invite those who are in
debted to us fur the' Record, and for adver
tising and job work, to call and pay up, so
that we may be able to live up to the Advice
we have given above

The Trenton (New Jersey) Gazette says :
"The last survivor of the party of young la
dies who strewed flowers in the path of Gen.
Washington as he passed through Trenton
in 1789, on his way to New York, to assume
the Presidency, is Mrs. Sarah Hand, now
nearly ninety years of age, and a resident of
Cape May county, and, hotwithstaoding her
advanced age, she is still vigorout and in

The champion eater of the United States
is named Josiah Plumb. A: few days ago
he entered a restaurant in Hudson, N Y.,
and offered to eat all that any one would pay
for. The challenge having been accepted,
he disposed of the following articles : Ten
pieces of apple tie, six corn cakes, a quarter
of a pound of crackers, six cups of peanuts,
thirty pickled clams, four lemons, an ounce
of candy, and two bowls of olaru soup. He
then drank six tumblers of water, and of
fered to eat a hundred raw oysters. No one
doubted his ability to eccomplish the feat,
but no one was willing to pay for the_oys
tent, and so ho went off grumbling that he
wasn't half full.
A gentleman, of undoubted veracity, wri
ting from Illinois, says : While out hunting,
two weeks ago, I was in some corn fields
which belong to a man named Sullivan. fle
probably owns more land than any farmer in
the State• He is the P roprie tor of nine town•
ships, each six miles square. This year ho
has twenty-five thousand acres of corn. This
seems like a big story, but it is nevertheless
true It was just the easiest thing in the
world to get lost in one of his corn fields I
strayed into one field, and walked four and a
halt miles before 1 came to the end of a row
of corn which 1 followed. A party of six of
us were absent four days, and during that
time killed two geese, two hundred and sixty •
three mallard ducks, besides chickens cranes,
etc., that we did not count.
Ku KLUX IN TENNISSEL—An old than
has arrived at Nashville from Haywood coun
ty, Tennessee, who tells a frightful tale of
rebel persaeution and oppression. Ho is a
peaceable Wen, owns a hundred and fifty
acres of land, and was quietly cultivating it
with ,his eons. A few nights since his house
was attacked by Ku Klux, a regular battle
was fought between the old man and his sons
on one side, and the masked devils on the
other. At last, one of the sons being shot
in the shoulder, the old man left the house,
taking a gun with him, and took up a posi
tion in the woods near by. Three times the
Ku Klux endeavored to set fire to the house,
but each time the old man fired upon them
and drove them off The result of the fight
was that four rascals were severely wounded
The next day the old man left with all his
eons, leaving his property and crops to go to
tufa.

A lady on board the States relates that
as she and her husband were moving to
ward the shore, in - the water, she saw one
of the life boats filled with people who
bad escapod. But all at once the Ameri

mercilessly the r ude rudder strikes the
boat, crushing and upsetting it. None of

A gentleman with his sister, a lovely and
secomplish,ed young lady, were passengers
on the United Statti - 3. At the first shock
the gentleman was thrown from his bed clear
on the floor. Hastily pulling on his pants
loons, ho rushed to the stateroom of his
sister, burst open the door, and seizing her
in his arms carried her down on the main
deck, where, procuring a door shutter, he

pushing it, with its precious load towards
the shore, when, to his horror, a big, burly,
and able bodied man swam up, pushed his
sister off the beard, and climbed upon it him
self.
The young girl sank with a scream, and
if she came to the surface it was so dark and
the confusion no great that he could not find
her. Maddened at the dastardly act, he
made after the author, and seized him by
the throat, a struggle to the death ensued.
They rose and sunk together, still struggling,
and when last soon were grappling with each
