Gem GRANT'S TRIALS.—A Washing
ton correspondent,says : "Gen. Grant,
having escaped from the height of th so
fa in the East Boom, where he had been
sandwiched for exhibition between two
heads of departments, and got out of
doors, declared, energetically, that he
had "had enough of the show business,"
and declined, in, rapid succession, a pub
lic dinner in New York, a reception on
the floors of Congress, ;and a compli
mentary review'of the Army of the Po
tomac' and hurried oft' West to his un
finished work. It is understood that he
will be back in eight days to take com
mand of the Army of the Potomac.—
Als<that a change/Id programme will
sive Gen. Halleck the 'command of a
department somewhere west. In varia
tion of the above, it is stated that Grant
will, on his return, reorganize the Army
of the' Potoinac, lead it in its movement,
'ilton place Baldy Smith at the head of
it, and afterward From Washington di
rest the five ;fighting 'departments and
these only, In his reply to an invite
thin by a number of wealthy:gentlemen
in I,few York to dine with them, which
be promptly declined, he,lsaid, among
other things, "Your efforts to give men
and money to carry on the' warlare:all
that is necessary to a reconstruction of
the whole Makin stronger than it ever
was."
,BEwsneor INFIDELITY.—JOB. Moore,
auctioneer atUohnstown %Cambria coon
',
ty,:fia,, on his recent return from nine
mooths' service in the army, ascertained
that.his - pife, a gay, dashing young wo-
teati,:had had: improper intimacy with
~John Marbong, a wealthy , merchant of
. the town. Moore watched his opportn
uwity a few days;:afterwards, and as Mar
lien passed by in the street, he caught
him •by the collar, exclaiming, "Get
down, on your knees—l am going to
• kill you! My wife made a clean breast
of, it.: last night,'.' :and,he immediately
drew a revolver and fired, the first shot
•
takiug effect:near the heart. He fired
three other shots in quick succession,
when Marboug fell forward and expired
, ; Moore delivered himself up to the au
thorities.
ANOTHER GALL FOR TROOPS.—The
Preeident has called fors two hundred
thousand more troops—in addition to
thu-500,000 just called for. This new
call shows that the Government is de
, termined to finish up the Rebellion as
speedily as possible in a single campaign.
An opportunity is given until the 15th
of April to fill up local quotas. Those
'not then filled by volunteers will be
filled by draft. There is no doubt of
this. Now is the time for those who
wish to avoid a draft in their district to
go to work in earnest.
oar On the 2d of July, 1792, Lord
Lauderdale, attended by Charles J.
Fox, Esq., met Benedict Arnold, at
tended by Lord Hawke. Lord Lauder
dale received Arnold's fire unhurt, and
Termed to return it. On being asked
why he did not, he replied, "I leave
-hitn.for the executioner I" The seconds
retired for a few minutes, and said that
Lord L. must fire at General Arnold,
or retract the expression he had used.
The nobleman then replied, "that he did
not come out to fire at Arnold, and if
he (Arnold) was not satisfied, he might
fire at him till he was." The cause of
the quarrel was this : A gentleman was
about to introduce Lord Lauderdale to
General Arnold, when the forider ex
claimed,. "What I the traitor, Arnold I"
lir By several of the last arrivals
from Eueope we have lied rumors, grow
ing stronger and stronger, that Queen
Victoria would soon abdicate, and the
Prince of Wales, under the tithi'of Ed
ward VII, would ascend the throne. A
change of ministry would of course en
sue, or at least a re-organization of it.
An English correspondent states that
there is great discord in the royal family.
'The Prince of W ales insists upon send
ingaid to •his father-in-law, the King of
Denmark, while the Queen is violent in
her demonstrations in favor of Germany.
It is not supposed . that such a change
would effect the relations between Eng

From evidence developed to the work.
men and others engaged in removing
the dead bodies on the battle-li•edd, they
are new fully convinced that not less
than seven thousand rebels lost their
lives in this conflict, the bodies of whom
are still there. In one space of three
acres were found three hundred and
twenty-five Confederate slain ; and else
where, in a single trench, two hundred
and fifty more. A considerable portion
of the battle-ground is likely to be
ploughed np this spring and summer,
by farmers owning it, preparatory to
planting corn and other grain. As a
matter of course, the Confederate graves
must be obliterated, and the trenches
which now indicate their burial places.
There is a strong desire with the peo
ple, in respect to humanity, to have
these bodies, though of the enemy, re.
spectrally and decently put away, in
some enclosure where they may not be
disturbed.
far There appears to be no doubt
that Col. 'Dahlgren was murdered—or
what is the same, shot from an ambush.
A letter from a Mrs. bumpkins to her
hiisband in the rebel service, has been
intercepted. It says, on learning of the
approach of some of our cavalry, their
boys, as she calls them, lay in ambush,
and fired on them as they came up,
killing, among others; the Yankee colo
nel who led them. The colonel, as he
fell from his horse exclaimed, "Oh, I
am hurt so bad !" upon which one of
their men said to him, "Damn you,
make haste, then, and die." A Mr. Ar
nold is mentioned as attempting to take
off his boots, upon which Colonel Dahl
gren gave him a kick, causing him to
desist. He soon died, however, and
then was stripped of everything he bad
on except his drawers.
or The proposed amendments to the
Constitution of Pennsylvania, providing
among other things for the exercise of
the right of suffrage by the soldiers in
our armies, have passed the Legislature
again, and will be submitted to a vote
of the , people either in May or June.—
The vote of the people in the State of
New York, last week, on the same
question, was largely in the affirmative ;
yet to the disgrace of several districts, a
majority voted to deny this precious
right to the noble army of patriots who
are offering their lives as a sacrifice in
the maintenance of the institutions
which protect these rebel sympathizers
in their own enjoyment of the right
Gr It is the general belief at
,Wash
ington that another call for two hundred
thousand troops will be issued next
month—Tit being the determination of
the President to bring the war to a close
before the end of 1864. There is no
thing so likely to insure this as an over
whelming force. Hence, those volun
teering will not only receive a heavy
bounty, but will in all probability be
required to serve but a few months.
ar Now that another man has been

heads affected much satisfaction, but the
hypocrasy of their manifestation was so
as to disgust all honest men.
er The Scientific American states
that in England the coffins from over
crowded burial grounds are dug up,
dried and ground, and used as an ingre
dient in the adulteration of coffee: A
beverage made of such material would
stand a chance to have a great deal of
body in it. This is an interesting fact
to coffee drinkers.
tar Dispatches from the West state
that troops are now moving to the front,
in Grant's Department, in very large
numbers. During one day nearly four
thousand re•enlisted veterans passed
through Louisville for the South, to say

soldiers, &c., who are forwarded to the
army.

Jar A. gipsey fortune-teller went to
the house of a well-to-do farmer near
Detroit, and succeeded in inducing the
farmer and his wife to believe that if
they should collect the sum of $2,000 in
the house at any one time, she could, by
some process or other, cause it to in
crease sod multiply to an unheard-of
extent. The old man mortgaged his
farm, procured the $2,000, and had it
ready on an appointed day. The gip
sey woman sat down to count it, along
with $3OO in gold which hid been
hoarded in the house. She sealed the
money up in packages, and gave them
to the farmer's wife to put away care
fully for forty days, when part of the ex
pected fortune would be revealed. The
latter, acting according to her directions,
put them up carefully in a trunk -under
her bed. Every day she unlocked the
trunk to make sure' that the money was
safe, and, after the allotted time, opened
the packages, and found, to her aston
ishment, that they contained only layers
of paper alternating within layers of lead.
lir The Washington Chronicle of the
14th says General Wadsworth left that
city the day previous for Fortress Mon
roe, with orders from the War Depart
ment to stop all the exchanges of pris
oners upon the basis recently acted on
by the rebels, by which one hundred re
bel prisoners are exchanged for every
seventy-five of onrs in possession of the
rebel authorities. Gen. Wadsworth has
been instructed to state that no more
prisoners will be exchanged, except
upon the principle of man for man, and
that too without regard to color.
itir It is said that a man must make
his money before he is forty years of
age. It is a mistake. Mr. Astor was
more than forty before he made that

years of age before he became a million
aire. .The original- Rothschild was
more than forty years old before he be
came a rich man. When a man gets to
be forty-five, he begins to lose his vim,
but no man should despair simply be
cause he is getting advanced in years.

THE GEITYSBURG BATTLE-PIELD.--Dee.
vid Wills, Esq., of Gettysburg, the Gen
eral Agent of Philadelphia for the Sol
diers' National Cemetery, gives the fol
lowing interesting facts relative to the
battle-field : All the bodies of our
Union soldiers have been disinterred,
and carefully buried in their appropriate
places in the National Cemetery. The
total number thus removed and interred
is three thousand five hundred and
twelve. About one thousand of them
are unknown, and one-fourth of the
whole number belong to New York.—
Quite an amount of money was also
found on them, both in coin and paper,
in sums ranging from the fraction of a
dollar up to fifty dollars. All this money
and these relics have been taken care of
by the committee. Mr. Wills further
states that he received on . Saturday a
letter from the committee of the First
Army Corps, stating that the members
of said corps bad now raised a sufficient
sum of money to erect a suitable monu
ment. `somewhere on the battle-field
where General Reynolds fell, and asking
Mr. Wills to designate the most elligi
ble and' appropriate spot whereon to
erect it.. The committee favors the idea
of building this monument upon • the
spot where General Reynolds fell, but it
being rather obscure and out of the way,
Mr. Wills has suggested an elevated lo
cation in the cemetery, originally de
signed-for such a purpose.

sends his annual subscription to 'the
Scientific American for another year ;
and at the same time he soundly berates
those who do not stand up for the Go

following pungent remarks :
"The 'traitor's coat-of-arms' consists
of aflea, afly, a magpie and a side-of•
bacon. Explanation :—A flea will bite
either the quick or the dead; so will a

traitor !"
