Ec Ickul ACu anu odirs
Gentiemen-I ask your attention for one
moment more to a matter which had escaped
my recollection. Since l left the platform
have been reminded that it is reported
here and in other parts of the country thae.
after reporting from the Senate committee
a bill for reelection. and after some de.
bate in the Senate upon that bill, Mr.. Nor.
ton and myself had an interview in the
Senate Chamber. in which. after some
laughing and chuckiing between US. it was
arrang ged that should finally vote against
the substance of the bill had reported. I
trust il is not necessary for me to pronounce
this statement utterly false. The bill. as
reported by the committee, provided
that the State officials should remain as
they were on the day Of the last election
until a new election could be held. That
thought the more logical and the better
form fer the bill. l found. however. that
severa! Republicans. among them nv hon
orei and respected colleague, Judge Howe.
John Sherman. of Ohio, and Others. would
not support the bill with that provision in
it. but would support it provided tie bill
should establish the Kellogg government IN
the interval before the election. Il was a
matter Of such trtiing Importance whether
Kellogg or Warn atn should be called Gov
ernor during the five or six weeks in which
the United States shoul d take possession OF
the State and hold and conduct an election
that l consented to an amendment which
would establish Kellogg here as Governor
in that interval The bill thus amended
and amended, by my vote, did not recog-
nize the fact that Kellogg had been elected
Indeed, the whole bill proceeded upon the
assumption that he had not been. ant
that no one had been, but it established hin
here for the time being, just as Congress:
might have established military COVER
nor, or sent civilian to exercise consular
power while it was putting republican
bill and voted for it; Mr.. Morton opposed

Singular and Terrible Disaster.

CAMP SWEPT AWAY AND SOLDIERS DROWNED
BY A SUDDEN PRKsHET.
The War department In in receipt Of infor-
nation from Capt. Alex. Moore, OF the third
cavalry, stating that on the 3lst OF May last, at
O'Clock p. m, q tel rible freshet, without any
apparent cause, swept down the Republican
valley, at Blsckwood creek, carrying away
everything before IL. Men, horses, tents, army
wagons were swept along like corks. The val
ley OF Blaekwood is about forty-fve miles long
and about one mile to q mile and half wide.
The entire stretch of country was one raging
torrent, at least from six to seven feet deep.
The only thing that prevented total destIuc-
ton was the fact that the camp was surrounded
by belt Of timber on three sides, and as the
men were carried off by the current, they were
enabled to save themselves by catching the
limbs of trees. When day broke il showed al
most all the men of the company on the tops
OF the trees, without any covering except rem
nants of underclOthes.
Up TO this time nothing was TO be seen o.
what had been the camp except the top OF AT
army wagon which had stuck 10 a log on the
ground, and in the wagon were collected eleven
men. Six OF the company were drowned and
twenty-siX horses lost. The names of the men
drowned are Blacksmith Edward p. Doe.

equal under the constitution and equal before

toraton Of friendly and social relations through
out our country. What class Of men can inau-
gurate that contamination like the graduates OF
the military academy? We, at least, know that
our honor was maintained and kept ntarnished
IN the contest. We can review that contest
without that acrimony, and with satisfaction
that il was not inglorious, and extract therefrom
useful lessons aud examples, influenced BY such
considerations. We, your fellow graduates
representing all sections of the United States,
earnestly invite you TO join us at our next
annual meeting at West Point Military Acade-
my in June, 1874. We will rekindle there the
glow OF our youthful patriotism; will clasp
hands, which wsged civil war without personal
acrimony or dshOnOr, and rejoice again over our
common country, strengthened aud expanded
Ey her recent discipline and struggles. The
address Is signed by twenty-five officers, the
most prominent Of whom are: On the federal
side-Generals EastoD, Simpson, Martindalc
Smith and Thomas and Colonel Turnerer. on
the confederate side-Generals Tnghman.
Frost, Beal, Braggs and Marmaduke, Colonel
