The brilliant victory of our troops in
Kentucky, under Gen. Scheopf, Of course

under Gen. Benz in fransylvana, in the
Hunaarian army. With the subjugation of
Hungary, with Kossuth and other IIanga-
rian exiles, be escaped and came to New
York. II has been said that he at first en-
gagged as q porter at one Of the hotels, bu,
the story is said TO be without foundation.
lie afterwards went TO Washington, where
he attracted the attention Of Hon. Joseph
Iiolt, who gave him a situation in the Patent
Office. At FIRST his duties were very hum
blc--carrying bundles, arranging models,
and the like; but he was gradually tried on
more important labors, and it was still found
that whatever he did was well done. A
position was then arranged for him more
suitable to his newly-discoyerel abilities.
Mr.. Holt continued 10 take great interest
in him, and missed no opportunity for pro-
noting his advancement. When he was
transferred 10 the War Department, he
took Scheopff with him. An important
survey in Virginia CHANGED to be needed,
and Schoepff was iatrustcd with it. This
brought him under the eye of Gen. Scott,
and his military education and acquire
ments were for the FIRST time brought to
light. Theneeforward his rise was sure.

business in the War Department Till edu-
Gated Officers began to be demanded for our
volunteers, when the New York hoicl por-
Ter was appointed brigadier-general and
sent to protect the State Of his beneiactor
from invasion. And now he will ever
be held in grateful remembrance for his
brilliant achievement at Somerset.

the Secession helions visited the house Of
another Union man living near by---an old
man, gray-haired, and feeble with declining

son in the army in Kentucky. They
found the old man at breakfast. They ab.

out into he middle of the road, and get down
upon his knees in the mud and offer IN

the Southern Confederacy. These are

imagination. There are good, trustworthy
men to back them, and they are facts.
