tain an appointment IS an inspector of re venue,
and that McHenry said he had failed through
Harland, and would get even with HIM for It.
Geo. Il. Lincoln. called by the defence, testi-
fled that he had reason to believe that Mr.
Henry's repui alton was not "a - and that he
should want margin OF his oath. Senator
Henry II. Pierson testified tnat NcHenry told
him, in Washington, in the early part OF this
year, that he was not appointed to ONCE on &C :

that 1t was not in the door, as sworn to by Nc
Henry, but in the partition near tho door; and
further, that an ordinary conversation could
not be heard through the partition. r. C.
Morgan and William NJ. Harding corroborated
Ludduth's testimony. Charles Loeb, whom
McHenry had testified he had seen count
out the money at Willard's, and give il to
Commissioner Rollins on the street, was call d

THE CARD FROM "WHITE Boy IN Blue"
In reply to card published in the Jour
mol of yesterday, signed by man who
calls himself White Boy in Blue, we have
but this to say in reply: The mans name
never was put on the rolls of the active
members of the organization, because he
was 80 enfeebled by disease contracted in
the service as to be unit for active duty.
He attended two meetings, and at his re-
quest Col. Marrow procured transportation
for him to the Soldiers Home at Dayton.
On his arrival there he found he could not
obtain admission without first renouncing
his supposed connection with all Demo-
cratic organizations, and while at Dayton,
in order to be admitted to the Home, he
wrote the note published in the Journal, un-
der the dictation of those in charge at the
Home. He was merely tolerated by the
members of the White boys in Blue, be-
cause OF his infirmities,a and was never solic-
tied to enlist with them and was never mus
tered in. Left to himself, common gratitude
would have compelled him not to snap at
the hand from which he had received only
kindness because he was disabled soldier.
The facts here set forth will be verified un-
der oath if need be. By the publication of
the letter, the Journal has shown to the
world the mean practices prevailing at the
Soldiers Home, in Dayton. where a man
| will not be admitted unless he votes to suit
those in authority.

FIRST OHIo CAVALRY Re- -UNIoN.-The
surviving members of the First Ohio Cav
airy hold their first reunion in this city
city to-day. for the purpose of reviving old
associations and friendships and forming
an association which shall annually hereaf-
ter meet at such point as may be designated.
This regiment was organized during the
latter part of 1861. and was mustered into
the service on the 9Th day OF October, 1861,
under command of Col. Owen P. Ransom,
and was the nucleus of that host of cavalry
which, under the leadership of Stanley,
Crook, Mitchell, McCook, Fitzpatrick, Gar
rard, Long, Minty and Wilson achieved such
triumphs for the country and fame for
themselves. Col. Minor Milliken was its
second Colonel. He was killed at Stone
River. B. B. Eggleston succeeded to the
command, and was, we believe, mustered
out with the regiment. A braver set of
men never crossed sabres with the foe.
Upon their colors are inscribed the battles
of Corintb, Decatur, Triune, Stone River,
Washington, Tenn, Paint Rock, Cleveland,
CORTLAND, Ala, Kenesaw, Patterson, Jones
Valley, Ebenezer Church, Selma, Mont
gomery, Macon and a hundred engagements
of lesser note. In its career it had met and
whipped the commands OF Roddy, Nor
gan, Wharton and Forest, the best cavalry
men of the Confederate service. 1t was
mustered out and discharged in this city
on the 2Sth day of Sept. 1865. We welcome
the brave boys of the First calalry to our
city to-day. May the occasion that calls
them together prove pleasant one, and
may the survivors long live and often meet
to flight their battles o'er again in song
and story.'

DEPARTURE OF GEN, +. P. BLAIR.
A MAGNIFICENT OVATION.
successfuIImpromptu Affair.

The announcement yesterday of the
presence of General F. P. Blair, next Vice
President, in our city, aroused the entire
Democracy to the necessity of exhibiting
to the distinguished soldier their admira-
alton for his heroic deeds on the battle field
and noble defense of the Union since the
war. as well as for the high position to
which he is soon to be elected. The affair
of course, was an impromptu one, General
Blair having arrived here on Sunday even
ing at o'clock, and designing to leave on
the noon train yesterday. There was no
time for very elaborate display, but the
vast crowd which gathered at the west
front OF the State House testified in their
presence their anxiety to see the hero they
are so shortly to honor still further.
| About ten o'clock a, large crowd
gathered in front of the Neil House, where
Gen. Blair was stopping, and at about the
same hour the gun squad of the White
Boys in Blue, with their little peice, opened
out in the State House square, making the
city ring with thunders for Seymour and
Blair. AS the roar of the gun was heard
In the remotest part of the city, the De-
mocracy came in crowds to the State House.
A deta, hment of the White Boys in Blue,
as an escort of honor, with banners flying,
and led by Hemmersbach's band, marched
up High street and created considerable
enthusiasm as they marched into the State
House square. ..'fs-aat T
Gen. Blair, escorted by Hon. E. F. Bing-
ham, Chairman State Executive Commit
tee, John G Thompson, Chairman County
Executive Committee, Col. I. 81. Marrow,
Commanding White Boys in Blue, DR..
Trevitt and other citizens, appeared on the
steps of the State House and was received
with the cheers of the multitude.
The Generals speech was received with
lnsty shouts, and he was conducted to
barouche waiting at the Neil House, from
where, accompanied by large concourse
of citizens, he was escorted by the White
Boys in Blue to the depot.
At the depot he was compelled again to
speak few words to the vast crowd there.
He playfully excused himself from any
extended remarks, and introduced General
Joe Geiger, who made most effective ten
minutes speech. With songs from the
White Boys in Blue Glee Club, and greet
ings and hand shakings, the time pissed
until the train arrived which carried the
next Vice President from our city, follow
ed BY the huzzas and good wishes of the
people.
