DRY TORTUGAS.—The Dry Tortugas,
properly called Fort Jefferson, is situa
ted in the waters skirting the coast of
Florida. "Dry" it is called, but it stands
upon one of an archipelago of sand
banks miles away from any main land,
and is, in an its bearings, very wet.—
Fort Jefferson is one of the Tortugas
group, which covers a nautical area of
about twelve miles, and lies in the Guif,
in latitude 24:40 and longitude 82:40.
The islands are mere sand heaps, cover
ed, however, with beautiful shells, and
surrounded by reefs of white coral. It
is a great resort for sea turtles. The
Fort is described as, a most delightful
place.
Inside, the grounds are beautifully
laid out, and contain a commendable
display of flower beds and other natural
decorations. There are an kbundance
of trees, prominent among which are the
i•ed oak and alanthus. The mosquitoes
trouble the latter only to die. But the
most attractive tree here is that which
bears the cocoa nut. These trees are
sprinkled in squads throughout the
grounds, and are as grateful to the eye
as they are useful for shade. A long
coarse grass carpets the sand very ac
ceptably indeed. This is the paradise
of forts—as elegant as it is strong and
useful.

WEST VIRGINIA. This new State
elected its first State officers on Thurs
day of last week. The Union ticket was
successful, Indeed, it had no opposi
tion. The vote was probably thirty
thousand, nearly all one way. The
ticket elected is as follows:
Governor, Arthur L. Boreman.
Sec'y. of State, J. I. Boyers.
Campbell Tarr
Treasurer,
Auditor, Samuel Crane..
Attorney Clen l l., A. B. eauld well.
Judges of Court of Appeals, Ralph L.
Berkshire; Wm. A. Harrison, James 11.
Brown. For Lsgislature, sheriffs, re
corder, surveyor, prosecuting attorney,
&c., there was in most counties a spirit
ed contest between Union men on local
grounds. The question of a location for
the Strite capital will now engross at
tention. Charleston and Parkersburg
are competitors.

Gov. TODD CAM—The Governor ap
peared before the Fairfield Court of
Common Pleas on the first instant, in
obedience to his recognizance, on the
suit of Dr. Olds, and, through his attor
ney filed a motion that, as chief execu
tive officer of the State, he was not liable
to arrest; and, until he vacated the
office, either by the expiration of his
term or by impeachment, he could not
be punished; that the case should be
removed to the United States courts,
under the provisions of tho act of Con
gress of last session. The Governor's
case was continued, by consent, after he
had entered into a new recognizance to
appear at the.next term of the court.
COST OF REFUSING DIVORCE.—The
practical operation of the British di
vorce court is illustrated by a recent
letter from a husband who successfully
opposed a petition of his wife for a di
vorce. Her case was so ill supported
by the evidence of her own side, that
Sir Edward Cresswell would not hear
the husband's lawyer, and the jury said
that they had unanimously agreed al
ready that she had no case. But the
necessary costs of the suit were £465,
or about.s23oo, which the unfortunate
husband is obliged to bear, he paying
his own costs as well as those of his
wife.
rar The National Intelligencer says
that the Government has decided that
the 25th section of the conscription act,
relative to, the arrest of persons resist.
ing the draft, shall be strictly adhered
to. It provides that if any person shall
resist the draft, or counsel any one to
do it, or shall obstruct any officer in
the performance of leis duty under it, lie
shall be subject to summary arrest by
the Provost Marshal, and be forthwith
delivered to the civil authorities ; where,
upon conviction, he shall suffer fine and
imprisonment.
tfitr The enroller of Brecknock town
ship, Berks county, who is a member of
the Society of Friends, and named Jo.
seph Dickerson, was attacked at his
residence on Thursday night of last
week. The dwelling was much damaged.
On Friday he received notice that "his
pave bad been dug," and on that night
three shots were fired at his sister's
hope. The next morning he went to
Aealiing and resigned his commission.

CAMP NEAR ISI URF REESBO R O r , TENN.
May 31, 1863.
.tditor Mariettian. SIR :-Only a few
ripples have disturbed the current of
events iu this department since my last
letter. The greater portion of the Army
of the Cumberland bias remained quiet,
calmly viewing the movements of the
armies east and west of us. General
Hooker's advance, and his success in
crossing the Rappahannock - and getting
in Lee's rear, together with General
Stoneman's noted raid by which all
communication with Richmond was sev
ered, produced the greatest enthusiasm
among the troops of this department.—
The fall of the rebel capital and the
death-blow to the rebellion was thought
to be inevitable. The daily papers were
waited for with the greatest anxiety ;
and if the news were encouraging, cheer
after cheer rent the air. With such
cheering prospects in view, imagine our
surprise and bitter disappointment on
learning that the Army of the Potomac
had crossed to the north side of the
river, and again were occupying their
old encampment. The enemy were,
most certainly, "badly used up ;" and
why a great victory was not achieved,
must remain a mystery until explained.
We are puzzled out here to know whose
turn it is to take command of the Poto
mac army next. It seems we have about
got round once. The late victories of
Gen. Grant and the -capture of Vicks
burg, which we expect before this meets
the eyes of your readers, will have a
great bearing on the movements of this
army. In a short time you may expect
activity where quiet reigns supreme.
On Monday last the traitor Vallandag
ham arrived and was sent through our
lines to his kindred in the Southern
Confederacy. The soldiers all say amen
to his arrest and disposition, and hope
that all who express similar sentiments,
will be treated in a like manner.
The non-commissioned officers and
privates of the 79th have purchased a
magnificent sword, accompanied with a
belt, sash, set of spurs, and a pair of
gauntlets, for Col. Hambright. The
whole is enclosed in a rose-wood box,
and is valued at nearly $4OO. The blade
of the sword is composed of Demascus
steel, and is slightly ornamented in gold
and bears the inscription "God and my
Country ;" the hilt is set with rubies
and a silver goddess of liberty with a
rabic clasping a mantle over her breast,
forms the gripe. The scabbard is heavi
ly plated with gold, finely chested, and
has inscribed on it, "Presented to . Col.
H. A. Hambright, by the non-commis
sioned officers and privates of his regi
ment as a testimonial of their esteem for
gallant conduct at the battles of Chap
lin Hills, Ky., October 8, 1862, and
Stone river, January 2, and 3, 1863."
On Wednesday last the 2d brigade was
formed for evening parade, after which
the sword was presented by E. K. Mar
tin,-of Co. E, in the following neat and
and well delivered speech :
"Sir : We of your command have as
sembled here to-day to prove the una
bated confidence we have in one who
has for twenty months been our constant
companion. To one that has been all
to us we could desire as a friend and
a commander, in leading us through the
trials and dangers and vicissitudes of a
soldier's life ; who has shared in com
mon with us our hardships and priva
tions, with true soldier-like fortitude ;
cheering us on the weary marches, set
ting us examples on the field of battle ;
never asking us to go where you your
self were not willing to lead. You
whose vigilance on duty has guarded us
against surprise; who has ever evinced
the kindest and most a atehful care to
our interests, comfort and happiness,
thereby winning the respect, esteem
and admiration of those in your com
mand whom you have led on fields of
undying glory, in a manner so credita.
ble, that here in the Army of the Cum
berland, the elite of American soldier,
none has ever been able to say aught
but what has been to the honor of our
regiment or the State we represent;
while at home among the beautiful hills
of old Lancaster county Col. Hambright
and Pennsylvania's 79th are associated
with the proudest deeds of the Union
arms of to-day. With you at our head
we followed single-handed, or accompa
nied by the batallions or corps of the
great army, the flying and scattered
minions of the south ; ever willing to go
where our country's danger lowered
thickest, or where our presence was
most needed ; to accomplish thii we
have traversed the length and almost
breadth of two entire States, that the
fiend rebellion would claim for his-em
pire. Pennsylvania's bright colors un
der your leadership have waved their
graceful folds from the Ohio across the
Tennessee, and from the hills of east
Tennessee to the shores of Georgia.—
You have led us against him in his cho
sen positions, and what we have done
our colors will show ; emblazoned there
in golden letters, not the work of our
own hands, but of enthusiastic friends
and greatful countrymen at home, you
find Murfreesboro' and Chaplin Hills;
on the fatal left of the latter field we
taught the traitor citizens of Naihville
that we were not what they so sarcasti
cally loved to style us : Sunday soldiers
of the yankee army ; if ever the Rock
City Guards get out of the rebel army
U Ll R T I A. N-
they will substantiate this ; if not in
words, their decimated ranks will speak.
Yes, you have taught us ; and we in
return have taught them that we were
no despicable enemy. For the patience
you have taken, the discipline you have
exercised, the jealous care with which
you have ever watched us, and for your
high soldierly qualities, do I ask you, as
delegate of the non-commissioned offi
cers and privates of the '79th, to accept
this beautiful sword and its accompani
ments as the gratuitous gift of six hun
dred fellow soldiers evincing to you
through this medium a token of their
high respect and admiration. Unsheathe
it in protection of the glorious old flag
everywhere ; crimson its polished blade
to the jeweled hilt, if need, in the rene.
gade blood of traitors at home. We
ask no more ; we know it will never be
dishonored, and when the scenes of
bloodshed and turmoil and war are over,
should you have survived, then, hang it
high among your cherished and sacred
remembrances of the past ; let it occu
py a place by the side of that which your
aged sire buckled around you when he
first sent you forth to do. battle for God
and our country ; and when the nation
has again struggled into its higher and
nobler existence, unalloyed and free
from the dross and fatal institutions of
the old government, think at it and
think of :those who with yourself aided
in clearing the murky sky of rebellion,
and enthroning freedom and its kindred
spirits supreme."
After accepting the gift Col. Ham
bright replied :
"Non commissioned officers and pri
vates of the 79th Regiment, P. V.: This
manifestation of your confidence and es•
teem, has inspired me with feelings
which I cannot describe ; and emotions
peculiar to this occasion alone. I read
from this splendid equipage, the pleas
ing truth that lam surrounded by friends.
I am not aware that I have ever done
anything to merit this beautiful gift. I
am not aware that my feeble labors in
the service of my imperilled country en
titles me to so much honor. I thank
•you for the flattering manner in which
you have alluded to my services. It
has ever been my object to dp my duty,
and the best evidence I have that I have
done my duty is this beautiful gift. I
accept it, fellow soldiers, let me as
sure 3;',6u, I cherish it as I do my life.—
I value it, because it comes from soldiers
of my own command ; with whom my
fortunes have been happily blended for
twenty months. As your commander it
became my duty to enforce discipline,
which at times may have appeared se
vere, but it was always done to promote
your welfare. When you rallied under
the - flag of your country, you came fresh
from your peaceful avocations,- unac
quainted with war and the requirements
of:a soldier; and now you stand before
me to-day a band of true and tried vet
eran men of war. For such men Napo
leon would have wept for joy, and may
I not well be proud. Your manhood
and self-respect has gained for you an
enviable reputation among military men,
and a name of honor among your friends
at home. The character which you bear
is due to your own individual pride. On
march you have acted the man, and on
the gory field you have proved your
selves soldiers. As you have done your
duty in the past, let me hope you will
do so much in the future. The blood
of your fallen companions, whose dust
makes sacred and memorable the glori
ous fields,nf Chaplin Bilis and Stone
River, should inspire you with renewed
energy. Our mission is a holy one ; the
nation is struggling for its existence;
despotism and tyranny are striking at
the life of our liberty. We are the
grandest nation in the world's history ;
and shall we allow it to be torn assunder
before it has arrived at its meridian
glory ? No ; God forbid. Bat there is
a vast work before us : a great rebellion
must be crushed before we can retire
from the contest in security; that hide
ous monster must be crushed forever,
and infamy inscribed upon its tomb, to
wara others of the great evil of attempt
ing to overthrow a great Republican
government. Is there a man so dead to
his duty to his country, who can look
upon this cot:filet without feelings of
patriotisin swelling in his bosom. You
and I have engaged in this holy cause,
and what we have already done should
only he an incentive for us to never tire
in "well doing" until every enemy to the
government be made to acknowledge
the supremacy of our arms. It is the
duty of every man to lend a helping hand
in this work ; if we fail, our posterity
will be beggars forever ; but we shall
not fail ; but we require willing minds,
stout hearts and strong arms. A glori
ous future awaits us, if we are only true
to ourselves and our country.
"The shade of our glory shall never
diminish, or its lustre grow less brilliant.
We should go on from triumph to tri
umph, until the seven-hilled city shall
be but a tiny star speck; peering through
the noon-tide sky ; and Nineveh with
its thousand charms be observed by
our swelling cities ; and Solomon, in all
his glory, be lost in the effulgency of
our superior light. May God spare you
all to see this glorious country restored
to peace, and you enjoy its blessings
forever."
Among the spectators were Generals
Negley and Rousseau, and a number of
officers from the 77th and 78th Pennsyl
vania regiments. When the ceremony
had passed, the Colonel treated the boys
and invited the officers to partake of his
hospitality. It was a happy re union
and was enjoyed until a late hour.
CHANCE FOR YOUNG MEN.-A young
lady at Columbus, the other day, who
makes a living by selling fruit at the de
pot, won five dollars by eating fifty oran
ges within ten minutes 1 What a waist
for some hair-oiled chap to wrap an arm
around when shadows are playing hide
and seek in moonlit bowers l It would
be worth at least six bits to hold such a
stomach against a white vest, and sweet
ly kiss the brow of so winning a girl.—
She will make a fruit full woman l We'd
like to see some five per cent. chap
take her to a strawberry festival and fill
her up at 'festival prices. He'd think
her the dearest fruit basket he ever
saw.
DRUNKENNESS OUR ED.-A physician
at one of the Paris hospitals has just .
cured a case of delirium tremens, brought
on by excessive drinking, by the singu
lar remedy of subjecting the patient to
the constant influence of the vapor of
spirits. The plan is not new, having
been long used in Sweeden to radically
cure drunkenness. The persons addict
ed to drink are shut up in a cell, and ail
the food supplied them is impregnated
with brandy. At the end of four or five
days they become' completely disgusted
with the taste and smell, and they come
out radically cured. The slightest smell
of spirits at last makes them shudder.
eir On Friday afternoon of last week
Mr. Francis M. Drexel, a prominent and
well known banker, of Philadelphia, met
with a frightful and fatal accident in
that city. Mr. Drexel was in the Read
ing cars, on his return from Pottsville,
and attempted to jump off while the
train was in motion. Ho missed his
footing, and fell under the wheels, which
passed over his legs, severing one of
them from his body, and mangling the
other. He was picked up in a dying
condition, and , conveyed to his residence,
at Nineteenth street and Rittenhouse
Square, where be expired at quarter
past 10 o'clock. He was was 71 years old.
sir Some days since a colored woman
at Beaufort, Solth Carolina, while en
gaged in her duties of washing, found -a
conical bomb-shell, and .not knowing
what it was, thought it would make a
good stand for her wash kettle. She
accordingly lifted the kettle—the bot,
torn covered with sparks—and.sitting it
on the shell, did not have to wait long
for results. A quarter of an hour after
wards she found herself lying in the ad.
joining lot, but her kettle and contents
she has not seen since.
gir The Paris correspondent of the
London Telegraph, of May Bth, says
that General Baron Dupin died there
on the previous Friday. He is celebra
ted for having saved the life of the First
Napoleon at Schambrunn by seizing the
arm of the regicide Stabs. He bad also
fought in all the Napoleonic campaigns
—a boast which-so very few will be left
to utter.
or An English engineer has invented
a printing press which will paint 23,000
sheets of a newspaper on both sides in
an hour. The paper from which it
prints is in the web on the reel, and af
ter passing under the type is cut in
sheets. The machine does without feed
ing, and the reel of paper that it feeds
from is unwound by its action.
eze The New Orleans Era affirms
that the speeches of Mr. Vallandigham
have been printed as a political text
book in .the Confederacy. The editor
says : "We have seen one of these
books, published at Franklin before Gen.
Banks' occupation of that place, on wall
paper, and advertised for sale at fifty
cents per copy."
gir The Augusta, (Ga.) Constitution
alist says that the number of married
men who have died in the service of the
State and the Confederacy, leaving
widows still living, is 3628.
