a Romance of the Military Service. n
Washington Cor. Baltimore Sun.

Washington Cor. Baltimore Sun.
An old gentleman, bent with the weight
OF more than threescore and ten years, has
recently been noticed as one of the habit
ues OF the office of the secretary of war.
This old gentleman. like many others
whose faces and forms are familiar 10 Off
clal circles, is seeking for justice. His
case has the SAVIOR of romance. Forty
three years ago Lieut. James Shau u burg,
young and dashing second lieutenant Of
dragons. was stationed at Fort Des
Moines, Iowa, where the hourishing city
of that name now stands. His father lay
sick unto death 10 New Orleans, and the
young lieutenant applied for leave of alb
sence to visit his parent. Leave was reius-
ed. and his rendered resignation, with three
months leave OF absence, was then accep-
ted He went 10 New Orleans and his
father died shortly after Before his
three months leave was expired. Presi
dent Jackson issued an order permitting
officers who had resigned with leave of alb
sence yet unexpired, and who chose to do
so. to withdraw their designations CD con-
dltion that they Immediately rejoined
their commands, Lieut.. Shaumburg avaied
himself of this order, and reioined his COM
mand, which in .theismeantlme, had been
ordered to the scene of the Florida war;
His name was sent to the senate for pro-
motion, to be first lieutenant in the I'd
Dragons, In a very short time after
this he was greatly surprised to receive
a notification from the war department
that his resignation as frst-lieutenant was
accepted. He wrote back, explaining the
circumstances, but without avail, and
found himself thrust out Of the army. He
Immediately came to Washington, aud for
these forty-three years has appealed sue
cessively to every president and secretary
of war who has beensin Office for redress
Gen. Jackson, after leaving his presidency
wrote strong letter in favor of his rein
statement. President Tyler. just as he
was going out of Office, issued an order,
reinstating him, which President Polk
revoked. Upon one occasion thirty six
senators signed petition asking his rein
statement Gen. Grant took much inter
ia his case, but thought he ought to go to
congress, and Secretary has advised him
that now, after such lapse of time,
congress only has power to give him the
desired relief. Gen, Ewell of the conted

many doctors have tried, how much medicine
