An Interesting Romance of the War.

d. X. Collins of Charleston, N. G., who
belonged to the rebel army during the war
and once camo into very close quarters
with Vermont boy of about his own ege
co years., is trying to find where he is
and to renew his acquaintance with him.
1t was just amer the battle of Strasburg,
when the rebels were retreating up the
Shenandoah with the federals in hot pur-
suit, that they met. The boy In blue was
mounted on magnificent bay horse, with
two revolvers by his side, and WAS other
wise highly equipped the one in gray had
an Enfield rifle aud lot of traps that he
had picked mp on the field of battle, and
was moving up The valley 80 fast as he
could, when he was ordered to halt by the
boy 10 blue, who came up in his rear at full
speed. The boy in gray halted and about
faced with gun at charge bayonet.
The boy in blue snapped his revolver,
and then dashed directly at the
boy in gray, who allowed him to
come in easy range, then raised his gun
and emptied the contents in the horses
head, killing him instantly and dismount-
ing his rider by the side OF his antagonist,
placing each on an equal footing. The boy

dealt him blow, which he caught on his
hand to save his head, and HE revolver was
knocked from him. Then the tussle began
The boy in blue caught the gun of the boy
in gray, and then they both dropped it.
The boy in gray caught the throat of the
other, holding it for time, choking him
considerably but the boy in blue released
himself. Then they tried to pull each others
hair, which they failed to do, as eaca had
his hair trimmed close to his Uranium.
Fisticuffs followed, without definite re-
| suits in favor of either. The boy in gray
wheeled himself about and ran for his gun,
which lay few feet away, but down
came the boy in blue on his back. The
boy in gray came up with the load on his
back, and then gave the boy in blue sun
dry blows with his gun, when soldier on
horseback, dressed in blue, came in and de-
| cided the contest, and he would have ended
the earthly career of the boy in gray, had
it not been Tor tho timely pleading of the
boy in blue, who babe him not to shoot.
The soldier on horseback, a New Yorker,
then made the boy in gray prisoner, hav-
| ing robbed him of watch. The boy in
gray now wants both his antagonists to
communicate with him, and wishes the
Vermont boy to have the watch.

Portland and Ogdensburg Railroad.

The parties interested in the Vermont
portion of the Portland and Ogdensburg
road from the Connecticut river to Swan
ton, are seeking authority to get prefer
ence mortgage of 100000 put below the
present bonded debt of 100000 in order
to complete the line, and open it through
10 its Ogdensburgh and Montreal connec-
tions. or the whole distance Of III miles.
only 35 miles are incomplete, and, il the
means are obtained at once, this portion
can be finished and the road fully opeped
by August. The prospects are now very
encouraging, more than two-thirds of the
necessary proportion of the present
bonded interest having agreed to the ar
rangement, which IS evidently the best
thing that can be done for all parties.
When carried out it will give a road III
miles long with bonded debt of $2,S00-
900, or less than 1924 900 a mile.

CONsPIRING AGAINsT BRIsTOW,
A Combination Between the Whisky Ring
and the Democrats to Blacken Mr. Bristow's
Character-Tho Plot Exposed.

A Combination Between the Whisky Ring
and the Democrats to Blacken Mr. Bristow's
Characteristic Plot Exposed.
The Chicago Tribune, Friday, says edi-
torially, that there is the strongest evidence
OF combination having been effected be-
tween the whisky ring and its democratic
investigators at Washington for the pur-
pose of blackening the name OF Bristow
before the people. The motive of the one
party to the plot is revenge or hate, and of
the other ambition for power and the pos
session Of Office. A series of attacks,
backed up by perjury, has been arranged,
and may be expected This was taci,ly ad-
mitted by Mr., Cate lately, who refused TO
state at whose instance he pressed the
Mary Merritt case. 1t is evidenced by the
attempt to revive the mule SANDER and by
the false statement attributed to Suit, the
Kentucky distiler. There are other more
convincing proofs Of the truth of this
charge. Bristow's premature exposure of
the conspiracy will, if The programme pro-
coed, be followed by more circumstantial
exposure of the facts presented, in all the
hideousness which characterize the expos
urea of the Washington safe burglary.
There will be full showing, unless the
scheme be abandoned, of the most infam-
GUS plot ever conceived to break down hon.
esty and rob merit of its own. The Tri-
bune predicts the most complete overthrow
of the combination of conspirators against
the fearless secretary Of the treasury, and
that rebuke will be administered to them
at the Cincinnati convention.
