nated Major-General vice General Hancock, 
last Wednesday, much to the disappointment 
of the friends of General Howard, whose com¬ 
mission antidated Terry’s. Another vacancy 
will occur on the llith of this month by the 
retirement of Gen. Pope forage; but even if 
Howard gets that, Terry has been passed over

Pliny Martindale, of Kirtlaud, Ohio, is a

farmer. He bad 800 sheep whim Wiuter set

found 1 1 of the sheep dead, 40 being piled in 
the basement of one barn and 23 in another, 
and others scattered about the place. They 
had all starved to death.
