BF0cE H0rh Var.

In recent address before the III istor-
zeal Society at Chicago, cx-Congressman
Isaac n. Arnold gave some interesting
statements in regard to the Black Hawk
War and some of the mon who served
together in it, In the light of recent
events, the fact that Zachary Taylor
Robert Anderson, Abraham Lincoln,
and jefferson Davis served together in
that campaign is n remarkable one. Mr..
Arnold said
In 1882, John Dixon kept the ferry
across Rock River, and the latch-string
of his hOspitable home was never drawn
in against tranger. The Black Hawk
War was pending, and settlers whole
families had been killed and scalped on
the prairies. The National Government
sent General Scott with some regular
troops to Chicago, and to these were
added some companies of Illinois mount
ed volunteers, called out by Gov. Rcy-
nolds % aid in protecting the settlers
and chastise the Indians.
Among the regulars who met on the
banks of the Rock River, at the crossing
then called DiXon's Ferry, under the
immedi at command ofGen. Atkinson,
were Lieut. Col. Zachary Taylor, subse,
quently President of the United States !;
Lieut.. Robert Anderson, the hero Of
Fort Sumter; Lieut.. Jefferson Davis,
and Private Abraham Lincoln, of Capt
Hes company OF Illinois Mounted
Rangers.
These facts l received from John
Dixon, hale man of eighty years, still
living. Anderson and Davis were
young lieutenants, just from West
Point, and Lincoln was tall, boyish-
looking young man of %. So far as
know, our tellow-citzen, Gurden S,
Hubbard, is the only living citizen of
Chicago who was engaged in this eXpe-
dition against Black Hawk.
When Major Anderson visited Wash
ington. after the evacuation of Fort
inter, he called at the White House
10 Jay MS les )ects to the President. AT
ter the Chiel Magistrate had express ed
his THANH to Anderson for his conduct
in South ar lima, Mr.. Lincoln said:
"Major,dv you remember of evermeet-
ing me before ?"
mo-" replied Anderson, 81 have no
recollection of ever having had that
pleasure
"My memory is better than yours"
said Lincoln; you mustered me into
your service as a high private of Hi
nois volunteers, at DiXOn's Ferry, in

How many men and women of the

games, especially those to which penal
tics and forfcits are attached. They
will be interested to read the following,
as much as the young folks will be to
play them. They may be novel to many
people. as some of them are TO us:
THE KNIGHT OF THE RUEFuL CouNTE-
NANCE.
The player whose forfeit ia cried is
so-called. He must take lighted cam
die in his liant, and select some other
player to be his squire, who takes hold
of his ann, and then 20 round to all the
ladies in the company. 1t is the Squires
office to kiss the hand of each lady, and
and after each kiss, to wipe the knights
mouth with handkerchief The
knight must carry the candle through
the penancc, and preserve grave coun-
tcnancc.
JOURNEY TO ROME.
The person whose forfeit is called
must 90 round to all in the company,
to tell them that he is on journey to
Rome, and that he will feel great pleas
ure in taking any thin for this holiness
thepope., Every one must give something
to the traveller. (The more cumbersome
or awkwaru. to carry, the more fun it oc-
casons.) When he hes gathered all,
he is to carry all the things to one cor
ner of the room, and depositd them,
and thus end his penancc.
GOING, no SERVICE
Go to service; apply tc the per on who
holds the forfeit for q place say "as

to be asked are: How doyou wash 2"
