*'.? , j the stove pipe, burst the raised foundation upon
which the stove was placed, and passed down
through the floor, just where the right foot of the
I’arson was placed, carrying off the first joint of
the big toe and splitting the foot open nearly to
the heel.^ lie was also struck on the left shoulder,
the electricity passing down the arm, over both
hands, which were crossed upon his chest, and
down the right leg to the already injured part of
the foot, leaving severe burns on the arm, hands,
abdomen and leg. The son, Nathaniel, who is
l^ostmaster at Alpine, was struck on the right,
hip. The electricity descended to and came out
at the heel, le-dving the limb severely burned.
The Colonel’s right side, from the foot to the
shoulder, was slightly bruised, his eyes somewhat
injured, and his hearing much affected. The
lady’s hearing was also considerably affected, which
was all the injury she sustained. There was ft
small negro boy standing between the two Welch
es. The destructive element pas.sed over the
floor precisely where he w.is, leaving a serpentine
black mark for the distance often feet, to a corner
of the space railed off for the clerk’s desk, when
it passed into the warehouse, by knocking ofl a par
tition plank; and, strange to say, the boy received
no injury beyond being prostrated on the floor.
There was a dog under the floor, which was kill
ed; and a horse standing near the platform, out
side, tibout fifteen feet off, was knocked down. A
number of gentlemen were sitting gn the benches
against the wall of plank, just outside of where
the injured p.irties were, none of whom felt the
shock. The clothes of the Welches were torn
into innumerable fragments, or rags, to see which,
without knowing the contrary, would lead to the
universal opinion that the wearers could not have
escaped irom being blown into utter annihilation.
The parson had Sis spectacies in the leit pocket
of his pant-s, in a tin ca.se, which was mashed flat,
and the glasses broken into very small pieces.
His penknife was in the same pocket. His .son’s
knife was also in his left pocket, and. both are so
charged with magnetism as to attract^ needles,
which alhcre to them with great tenacity.
The scene which followed may be imagined,
bill cannot be described. The Parson appeared
to be a perfect wreck, and the son did not present
a intieh more favorable sight. The Colonel (who
is ain old and experienced soldier) characteristically,
cr profes.sedly, observed that it was a perfect re
presentation of that which fbllo'vs the bursting of
a 13 inch shell in the midst of a crowd of soldiers.
I am pleased, however, to have it in my power
to close this .somewhat minute and prolix account
of a rotiiarkable escape from death, which will only
interest the friends of the parties concerned, by
saying, tliur all are now doing well; those so se
verely injured will no doubt recover, and that the
deal are gradually recovering their hearing.

Gen. Imh'ii/i n's Opf rat ions.—A correspondent
of the vScp.tinel, writing from Hampshire county,
June 21«t, gives an account of the recent opera
tions of Gen. Iinboden’s command, a portion of
which we copy;
(ion. Imboden, who commands this brigade,
has operated as a “flanker” to Kwell. On the Dth,
lie cros.sed the Shenandoah mountains to Moore-
lield, in (lardy county, sent back a fine drove oi
cattle; pushc'l on to Romney, the Federals, 1,500
in number, retreatinjr to New Creek, a depot on
the liiiltiiiiore atid Oliio railroad. Onwarti-he
prc^•sod to Springfield—the enemy there also fall
ing back to their strong position at New Oeek.
He coioTuenced threatening New Creek, the
cucaiy being 40(M) stron^, and meantime sent a
regiment of cavalry yroniid them, and captured
Cumberland, Maryland, or.C mile and a halt from
the IVnnsyiva'nia line. We were the first Rebels
in Cujnberiand .since the war. It is a beautiful
city, cnnta-niiig sixteen thousand inhabitants,.
So c iinjilctely had the enemy been deceived by
the teiut on Now Creek, that Cumberland surren
dered without much resistance. Some ammuni
tion and quartermaster storos were found, but
their destruction would Jiave laid the place in
a.-'hos. 'I he regiment turned its attention to the
line bridixes; th-'sc were uUerly dcmolisihed, the
WMuden ones hurled, tiic .5plendid iron one.s

The people in Cumberland say the railroad
n-. ver would be rebuilt durin" this war. Jackson
do-^troyed it considerjbly, but now it lies dismant
led, or wil! .soon, from Cumberland to Harper’s
Fe rry. The fat cuttle, hor.-'es and sheep, blocked
the road, bell»wing and blating—and such cattlel
The e mntry was in a perfect panic when they
heard of the coming of ‘‘Iniboden, the guerilla,”
a.s they eall him. Five thousand 1’ennsylvania
“.\rcii.sli” advanced to meet him on the ^^Tational
road. He let the “Meli«li” .-tand an dwaitfor his
coming while a squadron of cavalry went around
them a:id gathered the fine horsLS they had left
at home.”
A (!!'*■> I / /r,i.—(Jen’l Whiting has issued an
Order at Wilmington, stating that to commemo
rate son>« of the many distinguished and gallant
dead of North Carolina, who have given their
lives for their country, the names ot the following
of the Forts ifnd Batlerics of the Cape Fear, will
be changed, viz:

which, commencing with the lowest, will be known
