AThriIIing incident.

During the examination Of the eases Of alleged
frauds upon the Pension offos at Rochester quite
an exciting incident occurred. Captain Minor, a
veteran Of the war OflsI2, very intelligent old
gentleman, was introduced as e witness. He was
shown one Of MS old pay-rOlls by 8ir. Perkins,
clerk of the Pensin ofics at Washington, and asked
he reeoeled several Of his soldiers whose names
we're pointed out to him upon it. He readily ans
Wered that he did.
Question by the District Attorney: Do you re-
collect soldier in yeuv company BY the name Of
Barre1ger?
Answer: do, very we'll
Question: Would you know that man noWf
Answer: do sot think that l should it is q

Commissioner ConkliBg then called upon Barren

Of the room, stood irm and upright, in every res
pect 8 soldier, and bowed respectfully to his old cap
tain, who, after viewing him for moment, shook
his head obviously, and said, 81 do not TecOllect
him. and added "Gentlemen, it is long time

very day since led with my company the Ameri-

10 a moment, without regard to time or place, or
the fitness Of the occasion, q spontaneous cheer,
loud and long, broke from the audience. There
Stood Unexpectedly to each other, the two old sol
ders face 10 face, who had, almost half century
ago marched shoulder TO shoulder to the frontier
defend their country from an invading tee. They
had met now for the first time since then and that
upon the anniversary Of thst patriotic action. So
sudden and sympathetic was the expression that the
worthy marshal, Col Jewett, allowed bis patriotism
10 get the start Of his love Of order and dec0rum
aud forgot to rap with his usual p=omptnsss. And
the face Of the good nstured Commissioner, Mr..
Conklng, seemed more smiling than ever and to us
appeared more expressive Of dissatisfaction than Of an
ger. The last We saw of the old soldiers alter

ing in the Supreme Court at Hartford against F..
Curtis Co., to prevent their discharge in bank
ruptcy The wTits upon which he was arrested
we're put iuto the officers hands by Curtis & Co.
Mr. Hill applied to Judge ElsEorth for a writ OF
habeas corpus claiming that he not legally ar
rested owing to the fraudulent mean which were
used to envegle hrm 10 Hartford, and also that he
did not owe Curtis s Co. anything, exhibiting re-
ceipt in full for all demands signed By F. Curtis
Co. Judge Ellsworth, without going into the mer

Hill to be di-charged the ground that FRAUD
was employed in his arrest, intimating tnat Mr..
Hill could recover damages for false impr sOnment
and that the parties causing the arrest we're al7C
