General Wool nt Plattsburg.

There were two occasion in the career
of General Wool when he displayed more
than Spartan valor-the FIRST in his assault
upon Queenstown Heights,and the second
in the affair on the Bcekmantown road,
during the battle of Plattsburgh. Either
would have made his name immortal in
the ancient wars of Greece and Rome. In
the biography of the General, which we
published at the time of his death, we
referred at length to the storming Of the
Heights, and now We have the pleasure Of
,ying before our readers letter detail
ing the engagement on the Beekmantown
road from one who was comrade Of the
General in that gallant affair. 1t is writ
ten by n. Ranney, an old and respected
citizen of St. Louis, and general freight
agent of the Memphis and St. Louis Pack
ct Company
Sr. LOUIS, Nov. 20. lS69.-Dear Sir:
| was with General John f Wool, then
Major Wool, of the Twenty-ninth Infant
ry,) with 800 men, on the Beekmantown
road, eight miles out from Plattsburg,
Sept. 8, 1914. was little over l6
years old The enemy had l4,500 re-
gular veteran troops, divided in two col
umns one on the road mentioned, the
other on the Chazee or Lake road, and
intended to form junction at the bridge
over the Saranac,i in Plattsburg. A small
force ofmilitia skirted the field to support
us, but did not stand their ground well,
Major Wool rode ahead and discovered
the enemy approaching, We Immediate
ly formed in the road aud the fight COM
menced in the form of street firing, viz /:
the first company firing and falling to the
rear to load and so on, gradually and in
good order falling back, Captain Learn
ed with two-pieces of light artillery was
ordered out to support Wool, but did not
come up until we were within two miles
of Plattsburg. Our little Thermopyle
band then formed in front Of the guns un-
til the enemy came within pistol shot ;
then opening right and left,the artillerists
sent the death-dealing canister and grape
into their ranks. The enemy were only
staggered for moment, and filled up his
broken ranks and rushed upon the guns,
seizing hold of the wheels and holding the
pieces until the men were cut down by
our bullets, when the guns were released
and not captured Major Wool's splend-
id black charger was shot early in the
fight, in the body, and given to Sergeant.
Major Bottsford, who was shot through
one thigh to ride out of the field. Bolts
ford's wound was neglected and he died.
John L. Wool was as brave soldier as
ever went to battle anywhere. The writ
er is doubtless the only survivor of the
Twenty-ninth, Major Wool's regiment
and was one Of thirty unarmed young
men who forded the Saranae and burned
the obscuring underbrush directly in front
of the British batteries. This was q voun'
teer forlorn hope, and succeeded complete
ly. so that in two hours after we sllenced
every gun on these two batteries. The

"Oroide'. Watches.

For o considerable time past 'oroide"
watches have been widely advertised, and
a too gulible public has doubtless made
the trade in these inferior and often
worthless time-keepers a profitable one
The following sketch shows the manner in
which they are manufactured -
"In Switzerland the several peices that
go to make the complete watch are made
at separate factories remote from each
other, and the matchmaker is the party
who puts the different pieces together.
The matchmaker purchases his stock by
the thousand or ten thousand pieces from
the different factories AS a consequence
of such a want of system in making the
different pieces, there are always large
quantities improperly finished and imper-
feet. These imperfect pieces are again
slightly altered and put together, and
constitute the movement for the "oroide
watch" These movements are placed in
brass cases manufactured for this very
purpose, costing about seventy-fve cents
each, and exported to England and
/ America, where it has been definitely
settled the greatest number of fools exist.
The French Government will not admit
them unless they are truly and correctly
described, and the English Government
places them under the ban in so far as to
prohibit the use of genuine names or
trademarks; but like our own Govern
ment, it reaps profit from their importa-
tion and sale. There are the famous
"oroide" watches. They are worth ac-
cording to some of our largest genuine
practical dealers and watchmakers in this
city New York; from 81 80 to "a each.
The very best quality costs but s55 a
dozen. They sell in the bogus stores
from 81 to s25 each, and often for
double and treble those sums.--Ame,1cas
