VALLANDIGHAM. How Ho Was Rooeivod Into tho Con federate Lines. From the Petroit Free Ft-ess. One day in May, l*t, as Private S. F. Nunnelee, of the Fifty-first Alabama regi ment, was on picket about five miles from Murfreesboro, Tenn., a Federal officer, cn tirely unattended and carrying a flag of truce, rode up anil inquired for the officer in command, and through him for the Colo nel of the regiment. Col. J. D. Webb was on the line, a couple of miles to tho rear, and Private Nunnelee Was sent to inform him that the Federal* were desirous of passing the noted Clement L. Vallandigham within the Confederate lines, as Tier order of the Secretary of war. This move had been anticipated, as Vallandig bam's sentence had been promulgated, but tho Confederate government had no desire to accept him Had he come as n recruit for the ranks he would have been welcome, but as a banished politician he was a guest whom no one cared to entertain. Col. Webb took his time about riding to the front, and as he got there Nunnelee was sent down the highway to investigate a second white flag. This was waving above a vehicle drawn by one horse and occupied by a Federal Lieu tenant and Vallandigham. The officer was driving, and the banished politician was sitting very stiff and erect. But few words passed as the officer drew rein. He said to Nunnelee: “Here is Vallandigham, sentenced to ban ishment.” And to the great politician he said: “Come, I have no time to spare.” “I protest against this outrage—solemnly protest,” answered Vallandigham. “Yes, but hurry up. I’ll take your trunk off. Jump down, now—good day.” And the officer sprang into the vehicle, turned the horse round, and went off at a fast trot, leaving Vallandigham and tho Confederate soldier together on the high way. Previous to the war Mr. Nunnelee was editor of a paper at Eutaw, and Vallan digham v.as one of its readers. As they stood there the private soldier introduced himself and the politician gave him a hearty shake of the hand and asked: “What on earth are you doing hepe I” bln the ranks.” “And are such men as you fighting in the ranks of the Confederate armv ?” “Thousands of us.” “Then that settles it—the North can never conquer you.” After some further talk the soldier carried the politician’s trunk into a deserted negro cabin a quarter of a mile away, and then went for his Colonel. Webb came slowly up, and as he dismounted at the hut the banished Northerner said: “Col. Webb, lam Clement L. Vallandig ham, a citizen of Ohio and of the United States, imprisoned, villified and banished from my country for my love of liberty and free speech.” The Colonel stiffly answered: “Mr. Vallandigham, as a citizen of Ohio and the United States, you are my enemy. As one banished for his love of liberty, for which the South is fighting to-day, I bid you welcome to the Southern Confederacy.” They then entered into a general conver sation lasting about half an hour, at the end of which time Private Nunnelee secured a conveyance and Vallandigham and his bag gage were received inside the Confederate lines. The incident made quite a stir at the picket post, and could the men have had their way they would have headed the man for the Federal lines and obliged him to re turn, as they counted far more on muskets than speeches to win their cause. Mr. Nunnelee is now. and has for many years past been, the editor of the Tuscaloosa Gazette, and the incidents of this narrative, never before published, were taken from his own lips. THE SLEEP OF DEATH. A Disease Described by an African Traveler With a Girl Victim. From the Evening Star. An interesting description of the “sleepy disease,” peculiar to Africa, is gi%on in the “Journal of an African Cruiser.” The per sons attacked by this singular malady are those who take little exercise and live prin cipally on vegetables, particularly cossada and rice. Some observers ascribe it to the cassada, which is supposed to be strongly narcotic. Not impc-Y.-iStf the climate has much influence, the disease lieing most prevalent in low and marshy situations. Irresistible drowsiness continually weighs down the patient, who can be kept awake only for the few moments needful to take a little food. When this lethargy has lasted three or four months death comes—with a tread that the patient cannot hear—and makes the slumber but a little more sound. I found the aspect of Queen Maumee’s beautiful granddaughter inconceivably af fecting. It was strange to see her so quiet, in a sleep from which it might lie supposed she would awake full of youthful life, and yet to know this was no refreshing slumber, DUt a spell in which she was fading away from tne eyes that loved her. This young girl was but 14 years of age. With some difficulty she was roused and awoke with a frightened cry—a strange and broken murmur—as if she were looking dimly outof her sleep and knew not whether our figures were real or only the phantasies of a dream. Her eyes were wild aud glassy, and she seemed to be in pain. While awake there was a nervous twitching about her mouth and in her fingers, but being again extended on the mat and left to herself these symp toms of disquietude passed away, and she almost immediately sunk again into the deep and heavy sleep in which we found her. This poor, doomed girl had been suffer ing—no, not suffering, tor, except when for cibly aroused, there appears to be no uneasi ness, but she had been lingering two month? under this sleepy disease. Thank Heaven We’re saved. Burdette in Brooklyn Eagle. The country, and incidentally the uni verse, is safe for another year. AVe have been in great peril, but our danger has been pointed out, and not only so, but the way to safety has at the same time been so clearly indicated that the wayfaring man, though a Mugwump, need not err therein. An abyss of frightful depth hits towered above us, overshadowing all this fair laud with the deadly blight of its malarial breath in accents that euillod tho heart with the upas like touch of its ba'illsk glance, that echoed from sea to shore. But you have saved us, my boy; you and your fellows have snatched us from this living grave, whoso hungry breakers dashed their blinding spray and wreathed their angry flames in lurid tongues about our feet.

REPORT SPECIAL COMMITTEE. To the Mayor and Aldermen of the City of Sa vannah: At the last meeting of Council a communica tion and resolution of the Roard of Sanitary Commissioners was referred to us for investiga tion and report. The communication contained an extract from the report of the Health Officer to that body as follows: “I (Health Officer) beg to say that Alderman W. F.
