the railroad track near the Covington. XIV,
depot and fell asleep. A little dog belonging
to house close by, seeing train approach
ran and jumped upon his face and barked and

Gov. Clafin of Massachusetts, who was
elected as prohibitionist, does not make so
radical suggestions in his address to the Legis-
lature as were anticipated. He says: in plac-
ing new law on the statue book, it is of the

with the general Judgment. Care, therefore,

Gen. Rousseau was one of the finest looking
men in the army. He was tall, portly, of reg
ular and pleasing features, and dignifed in his
bearing. He was a fair but not remarkable
speaker; and though a popular politician in
| his own State, and an average lawyer, his rep.

| him to organize Kentucky troops while other
Kentuckians were prating of neutrality, and
on the courage with which he led his command
through some of the most bloody battles of the
| war.
