Supposed death from poison. --A member of Capt. Reed's company, the President's Guard, named George C. Bozelle, died yesterday, four hours after having swallowed something sent from an apothecary store in answer to the prescription of his attending physician. The friends of the deceased very naturally thought his death owing to poison being sent by a wrongful interpretation of the physician's order, and requested Coroner Sanxay to hold an inquest, which he was engaged in doing at a late hour last night at the residence of the parents of the deceased, corner of Clay and Henry streets.

er of the different streets be dug up and put to similar use? A trip hammer judiciously used, would soon make them as useful as gun metal as any other description of old iron. For many years these old cannon have stood silent sentinels of our progress, from an insignificant village to a considerable city. They have stood the winter's cold and summer's heat. Why cannot they be made to speak their indignation against the vandal hordes now seeking our destruction? In regard to the giving of church bells, while it does very well to illustrate the patriotism of our people here, is a question whether the trouble and expense to the parties making the "sacrifice" is not much greater than the good to be gained, seeing that one ordinary church bell would not make more than the half of a six pounder cannon. In speaking of bells, we are reminded that the one in the steeple of Rev. Dr. Reed's church was taken down yesterday, and sent to the Virginia Armory, to be converted into cannon.

Mr. EditorDear Sir: -- Please permit me to correct a few inaccuracies which occurred in your paper of yesterday, relative to the cause which conduced to the unfortunate death of Geo. Bouelle a member of the President's Guard, (Capt Reed's company.) The incorrect statement, that he died from the officers of medicine sent from an apothecary store, is well calculated to reflect injury upon the druggist who is supported to have answered the said attending physician's prescription. Now, inasmuch as I am regarded by some as the incautious compounder of said prescription, I deem it nothing more than just to myself to state that no prescription whatever has ever come to my drug store from the attending physician of the deceased; hence to is utterly impossible that so fatal a misinterpretation could ever have occurred. That he obtained some medicine from under my hands on the day prior to his death, I recollect perfectly well. He called at my drug store early on Tuesday morning

kees reinforced by artillery, upon the batteries at Secessionville. Col. Lamar commanded the Confederates, and with four hundred troops repulsed the enemy three times with great slaughter. The enemy fought bravely, but was defeated. A telegraphic dispatch received yesterday informs us that our victory was complete. The enemy's loss is supposed to be about four hundred, including thirty or more prisoners.--Our loss is estimated at from fifty to one hundred. Col. Lamar was wounded, and Captains Reed and King and Lieut. Edwards were killed. It was confidently expected on Monday evening that the attack would soon be renewed. The Confederates were much exhausted by the shelling of the enemy, day and night, for a week; yet men never fought with more determined bravery. The troops engaged were an entire regiment from Charleston, a battalion from Hagood's 47th Georgia regiment, Lamar's battery, and a detachment of the Chatham Artillery, of Savannah. Col. Lamar was complimented on the

Respited. --The Secretary of War yesterday respited John Mulligan, of Company D, 5th Virginia cavalry for 20 days. Mulligan was condemned by Court-Martial to be shot to death by musketry for the crime of desertion, and the time of execution was fixed for to-day, between the hours of 8 and 3 o'clock, at Camp Lee. All needful preparations had been made by Capt. Reed, of the President's Guard, to whom had been confided the details of the execution, to carry it into effect. He had sold himself as a substitute at a very high figure, and had deliberately deserted three times thereafter, after being warned of the consequences.

hat they were tainted with rebel sentiments. But perhaps the greatest destruction of property at any one point was at a locality known as "The Dragon." near the line of Middlesex county. There was an extensive tannery at that place, owned by a Mr. Reed, which supplied the people of the surrounding country with leather, and it so happened that the amount on hand at the time of the visit was very large. The Yankees loaded a wagon with the valuable material and took two of Mr. Reed's horses to Mr. Reed's horses to draw it away. They then piled up all that remained, with the tanbark which was found in abundance, and net it on fire. At the usual exportion prices of leather, it is said, the quantity destroyed would amount to over $30,000 worth. The party of the enemy that visited Centreville in King and Queen county, numbered not more than eighteen and might all have been captured by Capt. Littleton's men, had they not taken them off in consequence of alarming reports of numerical strength brought in
