War News of the Week.
Our last summary ef the war newt left
Grant drawn up in a lin from cast to wsst
a fvr miles north of Spottsvlvar.ia Court
House, and Leo in similar line, strongly
ntrenched two miles in front of hins.
At twelve o'clock on Friday night of last
we-k, Gn. Grant commenced a laeve-
ment intended to flank Lee's strong posi
tion on the T, and ia this ha was sucess
fuL Gei. llaacock, on our left, at that
Lour, mcTed from his position near Mat
saponax church south westward towards
Guioey'a station, on the Richmond and
Fredericksburg R. R. At Guiuey's bridge,
on tbo 2fy river, the rebels undertook to
dispute his crossing, but were repulsed.
He reacted Guiney's station, then moved
forward tc Bowling Green, and thence
to Milford station, 20 miles south of his
former position, skirmishing heavily with
the rebels all the way, but meeting no
serious check.
Burnside's corp next day followed taking
position within supporting distance on
Bank's right and in bis rear; and the bal
ance of Meade's army has since taken
position upon the sania general line. By
this movement, of course Leo's position
at Spottsvania was flanked and h- was
obliged to abandon it; and more in the
same direction on a p. rail el liae with Grant,
so that inntesd of being drawn up in a
line frra east to west, the two armies
should now be drawn up in a line from
Lortu to south.
Newspaper reports during the week say i
the left of Grant' army Las crossed the
north Anna, and, indeed, Secretary Stan- !
ten the oilier day said, in his dnatch to -

of deatl, oia board a e.teamer at the txtuth
Republican State nominations.
The Republican state convention met
at Springfield on Wednesday, to nominate
candidates far Governor, Sec. of State,
Ae., and delegates to the Baltimore con
vention and an electoral ticket.
The convention, say the despatches, was
called to order (at 10 o'clock a. m ) by
Hon. B. C. Cook, Chairman of the State
Central Committee, "who announced tfcat
Gen. Grant bad driven Lee across the
orth Anna." Thereupon ''Rev. Dr. Mo
Neil, on invitation; offered up prayer for
Grast's access " Amen! ani may he be
President iatead of Lincoln!
A. J. Kuy?cndall (renegade democrat
with a f.:t government office) was chosen
President of the convection ; with the
u.-ual corps of Vice Presidents and Secre
taries. The Convention then nominated caadi-
dates for State officers, as follows:
Governor Rich'd J. Oglesby (ren. dem
ocrat.)
Lt. Govrnr Win Bross, (Deacon Bross
of the Chicago lrili.ni )
Secretary of State Sharon Tyndale, ef St.
Clsir.
Auditor O. II. Miner, of Springfield.
Sup. Pub. Schoo't Newton Eatciuau.
Congress at Larje a. V. Moultoe, (ren.
dem )
Tho two best nominations were given to
renegade Democrats, but that particular
"element" is said still to have gone away
dissatisfied, as there were half a dozen
of the saw.e stripe applying for every
office. The German element ra? ttLoI'v
! ignored.
The Cjnarwittee on resolutions then ro
I ported a.langthy series, the substance of
i which is thus given ir. iu Times' despatch :
Indorsing the President's proclamation ;
anfj tho annin
ot negroes; also statinr :

'j, i , , r - j
homesteads and estates of every rebel, and
giving one half to our soldiers, and selling
the other rseif to pav the war debt; con
demriiug the democratic menabeis of the !
last Legislature, and denouncing them as !
"copperheads;"' for an amendment to the ;
constitution prohibiting slavery, S c, Ac. j
These resolutions, though rad:cal j
enough ono would think, to suit Oberlin i
or St. Louis itself, were chargeable with a I
j grave omission, being no less than the
! abssnco of a resolution instructing the
.. ...
u?iemf3 to tne iiaitimore
convention to
support Linco'n. It is not surprising, I
therefore, that their reading created the i
wildest commotion. A hundred delegates
were on the floor at a time, and for three
hours the scene of confusion was indes- j
cribable. At leagth, however, the resol- I
utions were tabled, and another committee
appointed, who, after a suitable time for
incubation, hatched a new set, supplying I
the ommission. Tho new set were quite !
t i .1 .i , -. , i
as radical as the others, and excited r.o
, , , . ,
other aebate, except on the instruction!
for L'ncoln, which, even at SpringSicld,
half a dozen delegates dart-.l energetically !
to oppose. However, the resolutions went
through, and Old Abe gets the vote of the
state at Ealtirnoro; but another conten
tion which met at Springfield at the same
time with the above, composed of the
'"German element," also sent a stiff anti-
Liscolu delegation to tho Cleveland con- ,
vention. j
The committee to Gx up an electoral
ticket had innocently put on the name of
J. II. Henderson, just elected te congress in
Lo vejfj 's distiict. When his time was J
read to the convention, it was received!
with the wildest Lootings and buses. j
Mr. II. tvo j oars ago had dared to tun for j
Congress arnst Lovejoy, ar.d this was j
remeaibcred aii:st Lim, ai;d the cor.- ;
vention erased his name as a "copperhead." ;

man's army, and now lies wo-inlc 1 in.
head ! '
A resolution recommendin;
for LT. S. Senator was choked
; Dick Yates
down arrid
disorder and hisses.
As to the ticket nowinated, it is almost
lidiculous. Gen. Oglesby doubtless com
nands a brigade respectably, and is a man
of courage ; but if, beyond making a very 1
violent and very foolish abolition speacli
at Chicago a few months ago, he lias done
anything to deserve such a nomination, j
oven from a convention of fanatical abol.
itionists, we are not aware cf it.
Deacon Bios for Lieut Govfr.oi is posi
lively a burlesque. Theani.o,;..oc :i'e.it of
his nomination will be bailed ivltli a shout
of laughter wherever he ia known.
Tyndale, the nominee for secretary cf
ttate, is an obscure village tioiability.

Spinjjfield politic! ns.

much to read," said to us despondingly a
friend, tvho spends five or eight hours a
day on "business," and "wastes" most of
the balance of his time in reading. A
captivating new volume had been placed
in his hands, yet he had a shelf full of en
ticing books unread. Doubtless, if a man
would read all the books of real merit
ancient and modern, and keep up with
the current literature of the day, he must
have more lives than a dozen of cats, and
quadruple each one by the allotted three
score and ten. We suggested to our friend
that he could compass the cream of avast
library of good books in the course of a
year, by spending but an hour or two a
dy, upon the British Periodicals repub
lished by Leonard Scott Jk Co., N. Y. We
can best illustrate this by giving the con
teritsof the April No. cf the Westminister
and of tho Edingburg Review now before
us. The Westminister for April contains:
The Basin of the Upper Nile and its In'
habitants; Strikes and Industrial co oper
ation: The Abolition of Religieus Teits;
The Prerogative of Pardon and Punish
ment of Death ; New Zealand: Taine'a
History of English Literature ; The Phi
losophy ot Rogr Bacon ; Contemporary
Literature.
The first article give us the substance
of 40 volumes that have been written
abe'it the head waters of the Nile, from
authjuity down.aiid while it dt-mnnstrates
that Captain Speke ha nt solved the great
problem of the source of the Nile, tslis us
really all an "ntiiiigent snau cairs t'j read
on that subject, and the Nils I'-iu K-inrr-ally.
The secoud article ex:ia:i:
subject of ''strikes.'' The third an: '.-
gives the cream of forty years' reading on
religious tests ; and so o: through the
list; while "Contemporary Literature'
saves you the trouble of reading about 100
trashy new books to find one or two good
ones.

Iht Accident in Cogswell's Itattery.
Our readers remember the accident in
Cogswetll's Battery in April last, at Hunts
ville, AI.i , where, by the explosion of &
caisson, four or five men were killed and
a cumber mere wounded. A despatch to
the Tribune, we think, attributed the acci
'.tit to carelessness, so that we take pleas
11. o now in publishing tho result of a court
of inquiry in the case. The court consis
ted of A officers, who, after a careful inves
tigation, submitted the following report :
We the undersigned, members ot a
Board of Investigation, which convened at
these Headquarters pursuant to Special
Artillery Order No. 3, dated Mid. Qrs.
Chf. ef Artil , 3d Div.. 15th A C , Ilunts
vdie, Ala, April IS, 1801," to investigate
and report upon the cause of the explo
sion of a caisson in Cogswell's Indpt. Bat
tery Ills. Vols , on the 11th inst., have the
hoiur to make. i.fi.r as thorough an in
vestigation as .the circumstances of the
cise will admit, the following report.
1st The explosion of the caisson was
caused by the explosion of a percussion
shelL
2. The explosion of the percussion shell
was ctiused by the plunger of the shell
becoming loose, and in crossing the rail
road track, the sharp concussion or jolt of
thfl caisson bursted the cap of the plunger.
3. We find, upon further investigation,
that the Ammunition in tho cuissoa of
Cogswell's Battery had been examined
and repacked only three days be
fore the accident, and we further feel it
our duty to fully exonorate both officers
and men of said Battery from any blame
O ' careles5ce?s in the premises.
Gen. Hunter, who was recently sent
down t he Mississippi to look after 'things,
gives a gloomy report of the condition ef
the freed negroes ia Louisianv Ha says
they are badly provided for and awfully
oheated by their new friends. One half of
their wages is stolen by selling them brass
jewelry, on which the rascally trader rea
lizes five thousand percent. These traders
ami plantation lessfs are all from New
England, and have gone to Louisiana in
the interests of a "great moral movement."
The diiTeronce of treatment by the ad
ministration bf Geaerni Banks nd Sigel
s worthy of remark. Banks, a favorite
of the administration, guilty of the most
shameful military mismanagement, by
which a splendid army is broken up,
thousands of lives lost and millions cf
property destroyed, stili remains in com
naaod; while Sigel, suspected of sympa
thy with the German movement against
the re-electioa of Lincoln, guilty only of
the misfortune of being repulsed by a
superior force, is hastily dismissed from his
command and in that way sought to bo
disgraced. No wonder the German move
ment against the re-election of Lincoln is
daily growieein magnitude and bitterness.

metallic cotiin containing me remains ol
the noble soldier whose now silent voice
had so often startled the enemy with Lis
stirring battle cry, was carried down to
the centre aisle and placed before the al
tar. Wreaths and a cross of evergreen,
interwoven with delicate lilies of the val
ley, laurel and other flowers of purest
white, decked the coffin.
The pall-bearers were General Bragg,
Major General McCown, Gen. Chilton, Brig
adier General Lawton, Commodore For
rest. Captain Lee, of the Navy, and Gen
eral George W. Randolph, formerly Secre
tary ef War.
The scene was sad and impressive.
President Davis sat near the front, with a
lock of grief upon his careworn face. His
Cabinet officers were gathered around,
while on eitherside wer the Senators and
Representatives of the Confederate Con
gress. Scattered through the church were
a number of cflSetrsof les rank among
the former Gea Ransom, commanding the
Department of Richmond. Hundreds of
sad fact's witnessed the scene: but the
! brave Fitz. Lee, aud other war-wearied
I and war-worn men. whom the dead Stuart
' had so often led where the red buttle was
fiercest, aud who would have given their
lives for his, were anny in the tight, doubt

Tun Crr.ci-! to. Mr. Winn CJutin. rf
Sheibyville. Ky., mikes the following i:i-twre-tin
statement in reference to this
pet to fruit :
In the spring of liGO, I notice-. I some
ot my plums pun :.i
od in catching the
ILivingsuccoed
irip.-d bug that is no
injurious to melon vines-by pl.ioit.g woal
on the mils around tho plants I concl-.i-
de l to try it around my plum trees. I re
moved th :a's ahout a foot around tne
tree, placing trah wool oa the clear ground,
and wrapped it iffiuiid the forks of the
tree. On looking the next day. I found
my trap had caught ' a number cf the en
emy," they having become entangled in
the wool. This tree produced a bountiful
crop, while th fruit on others within
twenty feet of it "0:1111" to naught" in
l-Mii 1 treat en part r.t tne otliwrs tne same
way like result. Also in ixo in iu.
I treated all my trees the same way. A
more healthy and abundant crop of plums
I never saw. I have eighteen varieties.
McClellan never retreated. His march
to Harrison landing was an advance. If
placed him practically within 12 miles of
Hichmond. It was Lincoln who ordered
McDowell to retreat, in-tead of effecting
a junction with McClellan and taking iich
mond. lt was Lincoln ugaiu who recalled
McClellan and his army from James river,
displaced him, and ordered tho disastrous
overland march under Tope;.
The contrast between Con. McClellan
nn.l liio lllliiln" that IviiL- stlus heel
was never more m irked than in his de
. .. - , . j
portment towards Gen. Grant. The fol
lowing anecdote is true, doubtles, in spirit
if not to the letter.
" A western editor who recently visited
NCcw York, went to str (iea MnfMellan .
I lie asked the general what he thought of
tho presidential contest. Gen. McClellan
answered that was a '' matter inai, uu cr.C
need bother about ; that it was settling
itself, and if Grant took Richmond, he
would be the popular candidate, and wjuU
hacc no rppisilion."

nanimity rail at it Albany Argus.

The following story, which we do not
remt nil-er to have seen in print, is now
circulating oa 'Change, lt may bo old,
but it is received as new and true :
At a famous watering place, within the
memory of man, a gflntlem tn was severely
afflicted with a pain iu tho stomach, which
neither gin coektails nor otmr cordials
co;:!d r:ii ).y. It wa-t night, and he was
in bed. His loving ,iV, unwilling to wake
th cl.rnea:;ci. usiiindod to the kitchen,
and piepfcred a mustard peultice, which
she spread on her own handkerchief, and
proceeded with it to her distressed lord.
.Before leaving him, she left alight dimly
burning in bis apartment; but deeply im
pressed with anxiety, she was not as careful
as she might havebeea noting the number
of her room.
Guided by a light which she saw shin
ing in a chamber, and which she supposed
was the one she had left, she entered, uad
gently raising the bed-clothes, fec, A;c,
laid the warm poultice upon a stomach,
but not the stomach of her lord.
"Hello there! What tne are you
about? ' shouted a voioe of thunder, and
the body aad sleeves, whence it issued,
sprang out of bed.
The lady sereaniad and raa ; her hus
band rushed to the rescue from the nffrt
room, the waiters joined and a small seen
"iuru, oiav-u iv suss NBtUtweH l ail -
concerned. The poulticed gentleman had
indiscreetly left a light in bis room, and
this lured the lady from her path.
IJer husband was to amused and ex
cited by the mistake that he quite forgot
his pains ; but early next morning with
his wife and trunks, left for parts unknown.
I .in poulticed man still retains the hand
! kerchief a beautiful cambric
with the
lady's name on it, which he considers of
rare value. Uostou traveller.

It is almost tao shameful to tell, but it is '
a fact, that besides about 1,."iU0 privates
who ran away from Grant s army, and i
