To the Press and People of Ohio:
The prospect of laws soon to be
enacted by Congress, for equalizing
bounties of soldiers that enlisted in
1861 and 1862, as well as increasing
pensions in certain cases, renders it
expedient that the people of Ohio

provisions generously made by the
Governor and Legislature of the State
this Agency-which was established
by Gov. Tod, in December, 1S62-is
continued. and is prepared to attend
to the interests of its citizens, free OF
charge.
The undersigned, who has had
charge of the Agency since its COM
mencement, will, on application, by
letter or otherwise, furnish grakuitous-
iy all necessary blanks and informa-
ton required, either in procuring
the additional bounties and pensions
referred to, or prosecuting any Just
and proper claim, for officers, soldiers
or their families, against the Govern
ment, collecting Second Auditors

4 Conversation with Gen. Scott
How He Escaped Being

sayings OF Gen. Scott during 4 con-
versation with the writer in April
1865:
( Lieutenant George Watts, my aid

battle OF Chippewa. The cireum-
stances are as follows AT the mouth
of Streets creek, which empties irto
the Niagara river, Immediately adj
jacent TO the battle field of July 9th,
stood q house, occupied by a Mrs.
Street. As there were no male be-
longing to her family, she had ap-
piled to me for protection, and had
given her 4 safeguard, which was
perfectly respected, and she made
money by selling milk and different
articles tJ the American troops. She
invited me to breakfast with her, and
/ accepted the invitation. / had Just
prepared my first cup of coffee, and
was about to raise it to my mouth,
when / experienced the truth of the
proverb that there is many slip
'twixt the cup and the lip"

very freely, lad risen from the table
aud stepped across the room to an
other table, near the window, to get
his pocket handkerchief ont of his

had previously placed there Ny

and l lost it in consequence. Look

me and said quietly but significant

down my untasted coffee, rushed
from the room, cleared the piazza and
steps at one bound, and ran ''like a
man for the bridge which commu-
with our own side of the
stream. Thus George Watts, by his |
promptness, saved my life, for the |
whole thing had been arranged by |
Mrs. Street, with the intention of |
numbering and scalping me. She
had given the signal by waving some
thing from the house as soon as-we /
had sat down to breakfast.
The same night, after my victory
at Chippewa, I made Mrs. Streets
house our hospital, and its rooms and
the courtyard, in which / had caused
tents TO be pitched, were filed with
our wounded. When / visited the
house / found the treacherous wo-
man and her daughter, very pretty
