He called on " Old Thnd." and told
him he wanted his assistance in get

The following colloquy ensued:
General Young-Mr. Stevens, am

but l was general in the army and
they wont let me take my seat.
Old Thad.-The h-ll they won't. A
Representative, with the credentials
of your State, and general in the
army, and they refused you your
seat?

going to act with us?
