General BeaureGard, under date OF
October 81, 1873, addresses the follow
ing to the New Orleans Picuyune
lnyour issue of this morning notice
quoted II short statement from Bowl
Ing Green, Ky, paper, giving the
origin of the name"Stonewall Brigade"
which is erroneous, as well AS the incl
dent relative tothe Confederate battle
flag, which does not apply to General
y. J. jackson, but to Colonel r. f.,
Withers, Of the Virginia Regiment,
now one of the distinguished United
States Senators from that State. The
correct version Of both incidents is as
follows: ...
During the battle of Manassas, about
eleven o'clock n. M, when that gallant
and merritorious officer, Brigadier
General Barnard Il. Bee, was endeavor-
ing to rally his troops in the small
valley in the rear of the Robinson
House, he noticed Jackson's brigade,
which had Just arrived and taken posi-
ton little in the rear of him, in a
col'se of small pines bordering the
edge of the plateau wherewas about to
be fought the first great battle of the
war. Bee, finding that his appeals
were UNDECIDED by his brave but disor-
ganized troops, then said to them
orally, men, rally See Jackson's
brigade standing there like u stone
wall" Those words gave the appela-
ton to that brigade, and thence to the
heroic commander.
The other incident occurred ut the
delivery of the Confederate battle flags
to my forces at Centreville, in the au-
tumn of 1861. Many of these flags had
been made from ladies' red silk dresses,
some of which We're much faded but
nevertheless highly appreciated by our
troops. The brigade had been drawn
up IN columns of regiments on the
plateau of Centreville, around u small
elevation where were stacked all the
flags for distribution, The colonies of
Regiments marched TO the front and
formed line near the eolors. After
addressing n few remarks to these Of
licers, | handed each one, in success
sion, flag; when came to Col. With
ers, he remarked:
General, 1t is nearly white, and may
he mistaken for flag of truce.n an
swered at once: "rhen, sir dye it in
the blood of our enemies" which he
promised, laughngly, to do. But he
had occasion to dye 1t more than once
IN his own gallant blood, and finally
he had to be put on post duty toward
the end OF the war.

Saturday morning of last week a

The HERALD never stated that
Capt. Bogardus was a resident of Dal-
las. Our country exchanges In copy
ing our article, seeing no place of res
idence accorded to Capt. Bogardus,
concluded that lie must be from Dali
las, and so stated, and thus the mis-
statement went the rounds credited to
THE HERALD. The Northern and
Eastern papers Mt the time OF the chal-

accepted aud would shoot in Deem

was seen on top OF the express car OF
the down train, but when the train
reached Clear Creek he was not to be
found. From the maneuvers Of these

contemplated. Every preOaution has
been taken to prevent anything of the

How 10 Nanquish the Stomach's


II the Enemy of mankind was permitted
to exert his diabolcal ingenuity in the In
ventlon of new disease, he could scarcely
devise one more worthy of his genius than
dyspepsia. The dyspeptic sufferer is tor
mented by symptoms resembling those OF
almost every known malady, and Is often
worried into monomanla by these conflicting
manifestations. A iavOrite though absurd
hallucin alton OF the victim OF chronic indi-
gestion Is that he or she has heart disease,
Dyspepsia has often been pronounced In

together with the constipation and bilious

OF dyspepsia, but they, too, succumb to the
above named Invaluable corrective.

GENERAL BUSINESS.

There is very uniform complaint OF bust
ness spathy and inactivity in which the
city OF INDIANAPOLIS has probably the least
share of any place in the country. Here
laporeTs. at least, are well employed, no.
body idle from pecessity aud not a word of
disturbance and grumbling about wages or
work But throughout the country there is
an unsettled feeling which Is tar from salts
factory. The New York Shipping List of
June D. discrimin mating journal, makes
the following remarks Business moves
along pretty much in accordance with the
actual requirements of the masses for the
multifOrm necessaries OF life, and though
the usual summer dullrtss Is settling upon
the markets, the vOlume OF transactions is
not far from the average at this period of
the year. Tho distributing merchants boy
goods only as they are wanted, preferring
20 take the chances of tie huctuatlon- OF
prices, and TO make fl squent replenlsh-
nents, than to carry exteD s1ve stocks. The
advantages of this SYSTEM over the old one
of making large bills on To- 81 credits are so
obvious that they need only to be stated.
They are, morecv6-, in accordance with the
absolute demand for retrenchmeDt-for an
abatement of that extravaganza winch In
fected all classes under the stimulus OF war
prices. There has been heavy shriDkage
in most kinds of goods during the last year
or two-too heavy in some cases tor profit,
and too little in OtheIS--butit Is evident that
the bottom has not yet been reached in
majority of instances. The idea OF living
more frugslly, and OF making more
productive and profitable use OF means, In
ciividuallv and a. a coluop unity, is begin
ming TO take root among the people, and 1t
will be necessary Tor business to conform TO
this economical tendency. ~ good many
weak firms will thus. doubtless, De
creed 10 the wall. but be SOUND
ones will be- all the be tier ior
the wedding out process. IA eanwnlle
new enterprises, involving large CAP ntal, are
very generally avoided. for the reast' tnas
they offer no certain return tor investl menus.
This will account for the unusually large
amounts of money lying idle in the ban. ks,
or investing IN public securities of one kim
or another.

1ty and fluctuations in this stock during the day

There was light trade in groceries up TO yes

condition OF things exists everywhere. DRUM :
mers for Eastern ana Western houses say that
our city presents greater evidences OF tnrIt, anu
has more actual trade than any point IN tnelr
wide rauge OF acquaintance. 1t is a conceded
fact that when there is prosperity and activity
else where, indianapolis comes in for a lion $
share. Refners are more firmly inclined, and
their products are no longer being shaded. Iney

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
stiI remain comparatively inactive. 1t is some
consolation to know that the bottom of the
market has been found and level effected be-
tween Chicago and the Eastern established mar
Kets The attemp t at Chicago TO bull the market
AID force an advance by its own power has
been not only a failure, but q damage TO the
West that is hardly excusable. 1t will take
some time TO recover from the shock: In tins
market provisions are arbitrarily held regard
less OF the rates There is a pretty drm faith in
a reaction and advance before the close of the
season.
WOOL.
This trade, which is usually at its height at
this season, is now dull, and apparently tend
ing towards a worse market. But a small guam
tity has yet been received compared with iast
wear he cold and backward season prevented
shearfng before planting, and much OF the wool
