A War Reminiscence. Cholera Notes. the “wateb witch” by tied- Tbe Knoxville Press and Herald says no THE CAPTURE OF TENANT THOMAS P. PELOT, C. S. N., IN JUNE, 1864. Our people are all too familiar with the rapture ol the Water Witch, which occurred in .Tune, 18C4, for us to enter into any de tailed account of it here. Indeed, the fol lowing letter from a correspondent of the Norfolk Virginian, who participated in the alfair, really one of the most daring and suc cessful of the war, gives a more graphic account than any we coaid furnish. At the time of its occurrence, as our people remem ber, tbe great achievement was a topic which excited the people everywhere within the limits ©f the Confederacy, and clothed the brave men who were engaged with glory. The name of the gallant Pelot will grace the pages of history and descend to coming gen erations as one of the bravest who sacrificed his life in behalf of the “Lost Cause.” We herewith publish in lull tbe correspondence o! the Norfolk Virginian: A few days since we noticed that steps had been taken in the States of Georgia and Florida to erect a monument to the memory of the gallant Lieutenant Pelot, who fell in the capture of tbe Water "Witch, in June, 18G4. We give below an account of the ac tion by a participant, who also won a name in that action. We will also state that he has a drawing of the scene of the capture, which will be photographed for the benefit of the monument in question. The article is as follows: Among the many brilliant achievements of the late ill-fated contest was one (the capture of the Water Witch) which, for desperate dar ing, has perhaps hardly its parallel in the an nals of the 44 Lost Cause.” Having seen in the Virginian a notice of a monument to be erected, in bis natire State, to the memory of the chivalrous young leader who met his fate in the successful struggle against overwhelm ing numbers, it has occurred to me that a plain statement, by one of the expedition, might not be without interest to your many readers, especially as at the time it was barely mentioned in the public prints—pressed out of sight by the thick-coming events of greater moment, borne on b/ the steady sweep of the storm-cloud which early in the coming year was to scatter to the four winds each vestige of the doomed 4 ‘confederacy. ” Our little fleet had for some time been lying in the muddy waters of the Savannah, per fectly inactive, and our officers and men were growing tired of the dull routine of life aboard ship, when Lieutenant Thomas, P. pelot, C. S. N., then executive officer of the iron-clad Georgia, proposed to the flag officer, Commo dore W. W. Hunter, to allow him to fit out a 1 o t expedition for an attack on some of the enemy's gunboats lying just off tbe coast. His. request was granted, and the expedition was soon fitted out, and on the first of J-une we started from the fleet with seven barges, the crews composed of seventy-five men and officers from the several vessels of the squad ron, all well armed with pistols, cutlasses, and the requisite boarding apparatus. We pro ceeded down the river, going through a nar row channel from Warsaw into tLsabaw ttonnd, where we landed and encamped for the night. The next morning a vessel was sjen in the olfiug. Lieutenant Price aud Dr. Thomas mad? a reconnoissancc and te.urned, n-porting her a game worthy oar pursuit, and perhaps not too f uiuidabl» lor our little force. As night ap proached, we got under weigh aud advanced towards her: but before we reached her she bad weighed anchor aud put out to sea. Our disappointment was great, but we returned, determining that the next night she should not escape us. Tbe next nigbt proved most lavorable for an attack. It was dark and stormy, causing the vessel t:> remain at her anchorage. We started a little before mid night, our boats moving in two columns—- Nos. 1, 3, 5, and 7 in tbe port, and tbe alter nate numbers, 2, 4, and 0, in the starboard column. Lieutenant Pelot, commanding, led tbe first boat; Lieutenant Price the second; Midshipman Minor and Master s Mate Arthur C. Freeman, commanded the third; Midship man Trimble the fourth, with Master’s Mate Thad Grey; Boatswain Seymour and Master’s Mate Barclay the fifth; Dr. Thomas and Mis ter's Mato Golden the sixth; Master’s Mate ltobster and Dr. W. C. Jones the seventh. Thus arranged, we rowed quietly aloDgwith muffled oars. All nature was hushed, save when the occasional thunder rolled in deep- toned solemnity along the far-off horizon. The lightning flashed luridly in the distance, and was so soon gone as scarcely even for a moment to lighten the intense darkness. But again it flits across the cloudy sky, and now the undefined form of some black mass rising from the water’s surface is seen for an instant. Oar boats press forward, and all await in breathless silence the next flash. It comes, and again brightens its rapid track, and this time reveals unmistakably the lofty sides of an enemy’s ship—tbe United States steamer Water Witch, Commander Pendergrast. Then Lieutenant Pelot, rising, made these remarks, hurriedly aud earnestly “Now men, Che hour has come ! Prepare yourselves for a fiercer fight than that of the battlefield—the eyes of your country are on you ! Mark well what record you leave to history to-night !” Within thirty yards of the enemy we were hailed: 44 Boat ahoy! Who goes there?” “Kunaway negroes,” exclaimed our faithful negro piiot, Moses. Nearer and yet nearer hurry on our barges, when our gallant leader rose in his boat and called out loudly, “ We are rebels ! Give way, boys ! Three cheers and board her !” A perfect yell answered him, followed by a terrific shower of bullets from the steamer, we being too close aboard for her to use her heavy gnus. In an instant our boats were alongside, and our men clambering up her Bides. The heavy boarding nettings were triced up, but stayed our progress but a moment. They were either cut through or scrambled over, and we were on the deck, fighting hand to baud—pikes thrusting, cutlasses flashing, pistols and muskets giving forth their smoke and flame, while the mad shouts of the strug gling foemen. mingled with tbe shrieks and groans of the wounded and dying, gave a frightful climax to tbe din of battle. Lieutenant Pelot was tbe first man whose I families remain in Jonesboro, except those i which some of tbe members are sick with cholera. Two white men aud a negro woman died thore of cholera daring Monday night and Tuesday morning. Monday, La udon Morns, living a mile from Jonesboro, died of cholera. There were five new cases Tuesday. Captain James telegraphed from Knoxville to Dr. Sevier of Jonesboro on Monday, asking him if they needed additional medical assist ance at that place. Dr. S. replied, 44 Not at present, but may to-morrow.” We learn, however, that later in the day a dispatch was sent to Mayor Buie, asking for medical assist ance. There is said to be only one officer of the city government the town marshall—left in the place. The same paper says “ a man named Mil ler, died of the disease in Union county. He was the father-in-law of a man named John son, who had died in this city. After John son’s death, Miller is reported to have taken the bedding and hauled it in a wagon to his home in Union county. He died a few days afterward. A Dr. Lewis, who waited upon him and two children, also died. A white man named Anderson Day, died yesterday morning, in a hovel below the mouth of Second Creek, (Kuoxvilie.) He was taken sick on Sunday, aud had all the symp toms, though his doctor says it was not choler* We understand that his own broth er said that the deceased had not drawn a sober breath for a week before he was taken sick. Tbe corporation furnished a coffin. The citizens of Johnson City arc much alarmed at the proximity of tbe disease to them, and it is reported here that they have (refused to allow any one from Jonesboro to get off the train at the depot.” A Fight with a Horse.—A teamster named Joe Allen, living on Woodbridge street, east, purchased a horse in Genesee county a few days ago, and, finding the animal ugly and obstinate, he made preparations on Sunday to break his spirit. Arming liimself with a heavy whip and a club, Allen went into tbe stable about ten o’clock on Sunday moiniug and proceeded to business. The animal bit at him as he tried to enter the stall, and Al len stood back and “poeled” him with the whip. The horse kicked and pawed for awhile, anl then sagged back, snapped tbe halter, and came out on the floor with a business look in his eye wbieh was truly appalling. Allen retreated back after seeing an open mouth snapped together aboot an inch from his nose, aud he just escaped two feet in tended to remove the top of his head. By shouting and whipping he frightened the boisc back a few feet, and be then got under the stairs, where for about half an hour, or until Lis wife could gather a crowd, he was bold prisoner, having all he could do to keep the liorsc from dragging him out. Detroit Fre*• Press. Fishing for Brains. — Howard Paul says, pleasantly, in Chaff: “A distinguished physiologist recently an nounced that fish diet was a great supplier of phosphoric brainpower, and advised that all persons whose pursuits made heavy draughts on their intellectual resources such as lectur ers before the Young Men’s Christian Associa tion, newsboys, writeis of theatrical adver tisements and patent medicines, aud electric chain-band certificates, and more especially the authors of the libretto of opera boufl’e— should devour soles, live ou cod, aud general ly go in for whiting aud stewed eels to recupe rate their intellect. I grieve to say that the experiment is a failure. The paper-wasters of my acquaintance who ate fish voraciously in tbe cause of science and belles leltres, give no more indications of phosphoric fire in the ‘upper story,’ under the new regime, than when they dined in their usual way at theii usual restaurant, or put up with the cheerful pot-luck that their various homes offered.” The Centennial Buildings.—Fourty-four different plans have been submitted to the United States Centennial Commission for the Centennial Buildings at Philadelphia, in 1876. The awards are to be made next week. They will be of one thousand dollars each to the number of plans considered the best, not ex ceeding ten, and from these ten or less will be chosen the successful one.

H. Brad- received a shot through the heart, while deal ing blows thick and heavy around him, nrd fighting with the coolness and superb cour age of a classic hero. The command now devolved upon Lieutenant Brice, who, though seriously wounded, reassured our men, and Lading them forward, fought gal lantly until the enemy surrendered, after fighting with desperation, and hotly con testing with us the possession of the prize in a struggle that was lor life. Bislols, alter be ing fired, were used as clubs; pikes were everywhere, and more than once we were well nigh lost by overwhelming snperiority in numbers. Not one ol our officers escaped without hav ing his clothes riddled. After the surrender the prisoners were placed under guard, and we got under weigh and steamed up the sound and anchored under the guns of “Battery Beaulieu,” which we reached about noon the next day. As we approached we fired a broad side and unfurled to the breeze the Southern tToss, waving over the Stars and Stripes, and were received by a salute from the batteries and cheers from our troops encamped there. Lieutenant Pelot 1 knew personally and well, and in the dark days of that hapless struggle, with all their record of heroism, of sublime self-devotion, no more gallant spirit met death for what now seems a dream; and ou the bloodstained “roll of honor” of the South there is nothing nobler than his life, nothing braver than his death.

It is understood that their mission is to visit Harrisburg and several other cities where colored conventions are to bo held, sud make addresses in advocacy of the Kellogg government as the rightful one of the State of Louisiana.
