John E. Walker, informs us that Lewis Lesher, son of Mr. Henry Lesher, of this vicinity, died at Camp Wood Ky., on the 8th inst. He was attached to Capt. Muehler's Battery, connected with the 77th Reg’t. P. V. His disease was diarrhoea, with which he lingered four weeks. The hearse returned from Greencastle on Wednesday evening the body of the deceased having failed to arrive there by the evening train. It is probable that the body has been miscarried. The body of young Lesher, a Notice of whose death appeared in our last issue, reached this place on Friday morning last, and was taken to his father's residence. His remains were deposited in the family burying ground on Saturday.
