REMARKABLE CHAPTER OF WORD-PAINTING-TELLING OKTHK HORRORS OF THE

PRIHON-PEN.

From Col. O. T. fk-artl'* Bristling nun Thorn*." A railroad running North and South tetwcen Macon and Americua foi^r or five struggling, rough board structures, renting drowsily on the rod aand weat of the road twenty or thirty people as vavid and rickety aa the buildings—each

was

Anderson ville before the Confederacy-

made

it synonymous with all that is

cruel and brutal. West of the railroad, and but a few dozen yards removed from' it, are two marches in which spewings of toads and reptiles and swamp ooze, decaying wood, rank weeds and rank grass

are

distilled into poison. The marshes are 1,500 feet apart, one above and one below the town. From. the marshes the poison runs oflfln two leafv-brown, sluggish currents, across the railroad track, and unito 1,400' feet earn of it. From the confluence of poisons, the stream, in lethargic flow, runM nearly due east betweennills rising with gradual swell on either side until it is lost in the Little Sweetwater, less than a mile below.

Five

hundred yards from the conflu

ence of the two little streams that ooze out of the marshch there is another marsh. Around thi« marsh the AndersonVillo prison-pen was constructed.

As*finally completed, the pen is an oblong 780 by l.tWO feet, the stream creeping through its narrowest part,alKut 100 feet south of the center. "Sid" Winder superintended the building of the pen. when he began, the marsh and the hills that rise on each sido of it wore clothed with heavy tiin

The marsh lay a festering sore in Its center. Then came tho oaptlvea. Kight hundred tinU from New Hampshire, t'onlHMtl.ul and Michigan. Weary, worn and hungry from prolonged travel, and cooped like leasts In freight care. lHiwn from the depot they marched wearily on through the shifting rands, amid the Joep» and taunts of a gaping crowd.

The gate ojwned. The stockadc swallowed them. Then they saw wslls of pine, a slimy brown creek, six feet wide and lite Indies deep, struggling through the soft mud, and a waste of mi sand dotted with huge stump*. And there were no buildin g*. no sheds, no shelter, no concealment from pelting storms, no screen from the biasing »un.

That wss the HHh day of February, 1}*»4. A desertcried one.

Wait! A desert is a tuorvy to this. The volume of captives swelled. The heroic, plucked from the front of tattle,

Tlie daring, tricked by guerillas. The devoted, who sucritieed liberty to save a brigade, or a division of an army.

They rolled info the pen, a continuous stream of captive humanity. The dwidlT «iaws drenched them. The licbtnlnc flashed in their unscreened face*, llungrv. emacilaled and torn with, pain, fhelterles*, tattered, ualied, the piti)e«a storms heat down upon itoein and thev fro**5.

They went. Among tlioso who went was Ambroso Spencer. When be arrived, negroes were digging a long tronch othor negroes were felling trees, others hewing their sides. "What arothose for?" twid Spencer. .Winder looked. "What?" "The trees hewed on two sides." "We put one end in the ground in that trench, the howed sidos close together, then pack the dirt about them.

•r

The earth and the air—boandless creation—was full of life-giving water, and .10,0000 Union. prisoners were condemned to drink of Double Branch.

Double Branch waa a Confederate executioner. Thai came the morass.

A morass is infinity of craters ejecting pestilent vapors. Slime and green scum are already upon the morass in the stockade.

The scavenger—the storm—carried down upon it the sewerage of the pen. It fermented.

Then came scurvy. That is born out of storm and exposure and want of proper food.

Faces puffed synoope from slight exertions follow, with weak vision, blindness and inability to sleep, dysentery, old sores opened, broken bones that had, united came apart and grated together within the body.

Horrible music. .* Mouths and throats and bodies ulcerated.

Teeth loosened and fell out. Gams, nostrils*, bronchial tubes andintestines pour out streams of offensive blood.*

Limbs rotted off. Worms dovour llvfne bodies. The felid bresth of the disease aggravated the noisome exhalation from the creek and the morass.

Poisoned by the water tormented with vermain irritated by gnats, moquitoes and winged ants devoured by maggots blackened by smoke: hero tiled by mud with matted hair shelterless in the midst of mills and lumber piles thirsting for water with limpid stream? but a few yards away (rishing for fnei while boundless for__ts nodded to them from the'surrounding hills rotting for vegetables, i\hile potatoes blossomed and corn tasseled before their eyes goaded to madness by brutality writhing in helpless impotence{under taunts and jeers and murdering* perishing by hundreds, by thousands with death marching by their side—a putrid horror: living aud dying these martyrs stood firm, and to the end of the scattered fragment of the wreck never faltered in their devotion to the Amerscan union. '*i A BOY'S LETTER FROM THE

CO US TRY.

A Cambridge, Mass., boy who is destitute of holiness, is spending his vacation in the [country. He writes a letter to his school-mate, which samti the Boston Post got and printed. It is as follows: "This is the best place in tlie world to hsve fun. There is six of us fellers, and an old man who lives here said he wished we were all in hell we throwod his wheel-barrow into a well and he couldn't get It out, and that is what made him swear. I got a fish-hook stuck into my nose, and don't you forget it, it ain't sore. The farmer folks put tin pans Jjout into the sun to dry, and they are .sick pans to hold milk after we jab some holes in 'em. The farmers mow down hay with a horse-rake and scatter it round with a grass-mill and pile it up with a machine. Grippie got one of nls legs in a hsy-mashine, and got cut immense, and when he gets homo he wou't have any legs, only one he'll be a healthy kid to play baso-ball. There wss a great circus when Jimme's mother came and found him crasy, he was »o sick he et too many cucumbers and two quarts of huckleberries, and I et rnore'n he did. I want you to see Hlckorv and swap my rabbits fur his gun. We fired a pistol four times st a cow yestorday and didn't kill her. Pistols ain't no good for game. Wo drowned six hens in a brook yesterday it was sport to see 'em flop ronnd. We shall drowned some more to-morrow, and we shall drowned some more overy day. The doctor has cured Jiinmie, and his mother waa agoin' to take him home, but here is something funny. Jimmie put some squirrels Tn his trunk, and snd they et his clothes sll up. When you sen'd the gun, send a lot of powder and a lot of matches. We aro goin' campin* out next week."

Montana ("or. Chlcano Times. Drunkenness is the great vice of tho frontier. It is before the traveler everywhere. Min«ra drink. Stage drivers drink. Teamsters drink. l*ew classes are exempt, as classes. Individuals often are, as in all communities. The result of this is constant povertj' among the working people, riots and appalliug murders. The latter are not as frequent as they used to be, but still sufficiently ao to indicate the unbroken influence of the great alcoholic prompter to all human evil. If the frontier dealers in general would sell genuine liquor leas evil might result, but anvlxxly who has traveled much in the territories knows that tho average whisky sold to workin gmen is the worst Kind of poison. Even the law against selling to Indians —the quietest of whom are ruthless devils when they drink—is often violated, and sometimes with horrifying results. "Law" is often only a mild kind of a humbug in these remote districts. Sunday, which in most civilised communities is supposed to bring peace, is a dav of terror on the wild frontier. Then "the laborer lays aside his shavel and proceeds to "enjoy himself" by getting beastly drunk. He is generally laid under a wagon or in a barn by nightfall, and awaken Monday morning with an aching braia and bloodshot eyes —sometimes to go back to bis work and as often to go back to his carouse. Peaceable people hate the coming of Sunday, because come wtth it disorder, debauch, and not infrequently tragic death.

TERRE HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING

SPTRITaSPEAK.

SOME OF THE LAMENTED DEAD TAKE GREAT INTEREST IN THEa PRESIDENTS CASE.

Washington Special Cincinnati Gazette. A spiritual medium has been consulted about the president's case. She is an Italian lady of wonderful spiritualistic powers, but who requires the services of an Interpreter to hold communications with her American visitors. She held a aeance to-night, which was participated in by a select number of spiritualists. As described by one of the participants, the evening's proceedings were confined exclusively to the President's case. The party in question is a gentleman well known in Washington political society. He said: "Immediately after the medium began she went off into a trance, and we were at onoe brought into communication with Vice-PreSdent Henry Wilson, who was the first spirit to appear." "What about the President, Mr. Wilson?" I said. "He is doing nicely, replied Mr. Wilson. "He is going to get well. But we are very anxious about him, and are doing all we can for him.'' 'Who," I asked. •Lincoln, Stanton, Seward, Zach. Chandler, Owen Lovejoy, and a dozen of us who know him. It will be a dreadful calamity if he should die." "f "How is that?" "Have you ever read the constitution of the United States? Don't you knowthat none but a natural-born citizen is eligible to the office of President, and don't you know that Arthur is a Canadian that he was born a British subject, and therefore is disqualified for the Presr idencv? Yes, Arthur was born in Canada, and if Garfield should die, an extra session will forthwith be called, and the question twill be investigated. It will then be ascertained that Arthur is a Canadian. and a new election for President will be necessary." "Are you sure of this, Mr. Wilson? "Perfectly. We know what we are talking about up here. But we hope that this dreadful condition of things will not be brought about. We are trying our level best to save General Garfield. Lincoln and Stanton have just left for the Wrhite House to see how he is getting on. We have been wholly absorbed with this event since the President was shot. We have ljeen in constant consultation ever since. But

lease excuse mo for a few moments and Stanton have just returned, and I must go and hear what they have to say."

In a few minutes Mr. Wilson returned accompanied by Zach Chandler. Mr. Wilson said: "It is all right the President is better, much better, and, at I said before, he will recover." "Can you tell me anything about the ball? We are awfully puzzled down here to know where the bullet is.". "The bullet is in the right iliac fossa, as Dr. Agnew states," said Mr. Wilson. "It hasn't hurt any mortal part at all. You see the ball struck the tenth rib at right angles and then branched off, carrying with it, however, several pieces of bone. Some of these have been recovered, I see, but not all, and until the rest are got out the daily febrile rise will continue. It isthese remaining pieces of bone that are creating all tho disturbance in the Presidents system, and produsing the fever and keeping him from going ahead. The doctors ought to try to get these pieces out of tho President's body. Zach. Chandler, who is here, agrees with me."

Do you, Mr. Chandler "Yes, I do," responded Mr. Chandler. Those pieces of bones must bo removed before Garfield can get well. That's the cause of all the trouole." "But will the president recover?" "Yes, he will," replied Wilson.

Tills ended the seance and all left tho medium's house, moro hopeful than when they entered.

•HUNT THE RING."

Here is a pleasant game called •Hunt

tho Ring," which would fill in nicely on Homo rainy evening. A circle is made, and a piecc of tapo string is obtainod sufficiently long to reach all around the inside. A ring is then slipped on to it, and the ends aro tied together. Each of the Jplavers takes hold of the tape or string with both hands, and the person whom lot or choice has marked out for the victim standing in the middle of tho circle, is next made Co turn around three times (without shutting his eyes or submitting to any othor disadvantage), and is then let loose to hunt for the ring. The object of the rest of the players is, itf the

to prevent his catching it and"they pass it from one to another, covering it with

their hands as rapidly as possible. If a constant backward and forward motion of the hand is kept up. it will be found extremely difficult to discover where it is, so as to stop it before it disappears. As in the fairy tale, it will often be seen to gleam, but only to disappear when an effort is made to

asp it and the victim's only chance Is greatest possible rapidity in opening and shutting every hand round the circle, to each of which he has immediate access as soon as he has touched it. It is unfair to pass the ring from under a hand after it has been touched and before it has been opened, and the player in whose possession it is finally found becomes In turn the victim.

A FUXNY OLD STORY. Oapltal. Tom Marshall was engaged in the trial of a cue in the interior of Kentucky, when a decision of the Judge struck him as so bad that he rose and said: "There never was such a ruling as that since Pontius Pilate presided ou the trial of Christ." "Mr. Clerk," responded the Judge, "fine Mr. Marshall ten dollars for contempt of court." "I confess, your Honor," continued Tom, "that wbat I said was a little hard on Pontius Pilate, but it is the first time in the history of Kentucky jurisprudence that It Is held that to* «pe*k disrespectfully of Pontius Pilate is contempt of court." "Mr. Clerk, make the fine twenty dollars for a continuous contempt," said the Judge solemnlv. "Well, Judge," Tom added, "aa vou won all my money last night at poker, lead roe the twenty." "Mr. Clerk," cried the Judge, hastily, "remit the fine. The State can afford! to lose the money better than I can." "I congratulate the Court upon it* return to a sane condition," said Tom, resuming hi* seat amid roars of laughter.

A little boy in Belfast, Me., attended church last Sunday for the first time. On returning home he was asked what was done at the church, to which he replied: "First they sang, then prayed, and then they passed around a cornpopper."

"You must not play with that little girl, dear," said an injudicious parent. But, ma, I like her 1 am sure she dresses as pretty as I do, and she has lots of toys." "I cannot help that, my dear," replied the foolish mother "her father is a shoemaker." "But I don't play with her father she ain't a shoemaker.'

During a big thunder shower awhile ago little Willie, who slept up stairs alone, got scared and called his mother, who came up and asked him what he frightened about. Willie frankly admitted thdt the thunder was a lfttle too much fora boy who slept alone. "Well, you are afraid," said his mother, pushing back the curls from his forenead, "vou should pray for courage." "Well, all right," said Willie, an idea coining into nis bead. "Suppose you stay up here and pray while 1 go down stairs and sleep with pa."
