him, thing, as afterwards heard, annoyed
the Katahdin's captain much. To show
you there is something in luck, our chaser
had not been out of sight an hour when we
broke down. We had to blow all the water
out of our boilers, send men inside to rlvet
them, and when we reached Cuba we were
short of fuel. We ran up sort of river for
coal, and not finding any, purchased lot OF
mesquite wood, and headed for Havana.
While going down the coast we were well
frightened by a large vessel, which headed
for us, and which looked like an American
nan-of-war. 1t turned out to be an English
ship, the captain soaring US by way of a
joke.
That was a narrow escape we had that
trip, but I've had so many of them it would
fill a volume to tell all. The captain, as he
related his story, seemed once more to be on
the quarterback with q man-of-war in full
chase, and his eye frightened as he related
how he made these narrow escapes. He
was never caught, and was perhaps the most
successful blockade runner a1oat

BLOODY REpuLsE AT CoRINTH.


Early on Sunday morning, before ii was
light, the enemy ran a battery of small guns
right up the road to within a short distance
of Fort Robinett and began firing right at
the fort L was on the picket line, Il few
rods in front of the fort. They made it
warm for us for few moments, but when
the sun came up clear and bright, the heavy
artillery in the fort opened on their little
battery and cleaned it out in twinkling.
We went forward and pulled it in. All
this time the enemy could be seen evidently
preparing for some bold move. About nine
o'clock they emerged from the woods in
solid column, and led by Colonel Rogers, of
the Third Texas Rangers, made desperate
charge ON our fort. The artillery played
havoc in their ranks, but on they came, and
by some mistake they were taken tor our
own men by our commander, and the brig
ade lay fiat to the ground until the enemy
were right in the fort, when the word was
d" Fix bayonets, double quick charge." The
men of the little Ohio brigade sprang to
their feet and in minute the fort was
cleared and the enemy were flying in all
directions. Some few prisoners were taken
and great many more of the contederates
never returned to their comrades. Their
brave commander, the colonel Of the Third
Texas, fell with some thirty balls in his
body in different places. The Sixty-third
suffered the heaviest in this charge The
loss of the Forty third was ten officers and
in rank and file one hundred and ten
men. Our brave and gallant Colonel Kirby
Smith fell mortally wounded and We lost in
him one of the finest specimens of soldier
that ever lived.
The enemy next moved on our right and
attacked Fort Williams. Then they made
the grandest charge that ever witnessed.
The charging column consisted of a brigade
of Mississippi troops They also emerged
from the roads in solid column, but our forts
had cross fire on them and moved them
down like grain before the sickle. Never
theless, they closed up and moved on like
clock-work until they reached the fort. The
fort was supported by some of Palmer's
men, who did not seem to check them in
of our artillery and men right up to the
town. But just when the day looked the
brightest for the enemy Davis's division, that
was in reserve, came down upon them like
an avalanche and swept everything drove
them back. None escaped the steel of
Davis's gallant men, who drove them right
past the fort they had captured from us few
moments before. On they went until they
reached the wood, when they came to halt
and gradually fell back to our line. All
this time General Rosecrans was watching
the proceedings with intense interest and
giving orders here and there as circumstances
required it. About four o'clock of that
memorable day he came along the line with
his staff. Cheer after cheer went up from
the men as their comrades said: "Boys, the
day is ours and the enemy is flying" So
ended one of the hardest fought little bat
ties of the year 1862.

A SURPRISED CONFIDENCE MAN,

"Can you tell me where Chatham street
is?" asked a handsomely dressed young
man of Horld reporter who was standing
at the head of Chatham street square last
night. 81 promised to meet friend in
the - saloon, which he said was on Chat
ham street. But I am stranger in the city
and have lost my way"
The reporter was waiting for Celestial
guide, Ho Jee by name, who had promised
to make tour of the Chinese quarters with
him. He therefore felt justified in saying
II think that is Chatham street over there
| am stranger, too, but l came up the street
from my hotel, and L was told it was Chat
ham,"
THANK you very much, said the nice
young man. "What disagreeable night it
is; won't you have a drink with me?D
The reporter acquiesced and with his new
friend entered a saloon. "Tll take some Of
your best brandy and Brighton seltzer"
Chatham square saloons have but one kind
of brandy, a very bad kind, and the distinc-
ton made is in the price and not in the
bottle. While discussing the liquids the
nice young man glibly descanted on the
marvellous sights to be seen in the city by
strangers and after disposing of the fourth
brandy and seltzer proposed that the re-
porter should accompany him to the -
saloon to keep his engagement. "If my
friend isn't there, we'll see what's going on,
and if there's no fun we'll go off ON quiet
little 'racket'-that's what they call it,
isn't it?"
The reporter demurred at first, but finally,
unwilling to spoil good story, started with
the nice young man down Chatham street
"Here we are" he remarked, as he stopped
at the head of a pair of stairs leading to a
disreputable "dive," and showing wonder
full familiarity with the place. "Come down.
We won't stay long can show you things
you never dreamed of in this country. It's
lively place"
The reporter, at this point, wishing to
make some return for his companions
generosity in paying two dollars for twenty
five cents worth of wretched liquor, threw
back his coat, intending to offer him some
cigarettes Before he could carry out his
intention the man turned and dashed at full
speed up Chatham street. He had caught a
glimpse of fire badge, which closely re-
sembles that worn by policemen and de-
tectives, and had not waited to go on that
. little racket he proposed.-Nep York World.

ever. that gallant officer, sad and disheart-
ened, arrived, and reported his line broken
and in confusion. The new line under Col.
wilkins also gave way soon after, and III
was now impossible to exercise any further
control. The road became crowded ana
jammed with troops-the wagons and artll-
lery sinking into the deep mud, became
inextricable, and added to the general con-
fusion which everywhere prevailed. NO
power could now check or control the
panic stricken mass as it swept toward the
rear.
About ten o'clock p m. reached Stubb's,
where 1 found Col. Winslow's brigade. L
informed him that his was the only organ
lied body of men / had been able to find,
and requested him to add to his own every
possible force he could rally as they passed,
and take charge of the Tear-remalDlng IN
position until all should have passed. also
informed him that on account of the extreme
darkness Of the night and the wretched
condition of the roads, had little hope OF
saving anything more than the troops, and
directed him, therefore, TO destroy all wag-
ons and artillery which he might find
blocking up the road and preventing the
passage of the men. In this way some two
hundred wagons and fourteen pieces OF
artillery were lost-many of the wag-
ons being burned and the artillery spiked
and otherwise mutilated. The mules
and horses were brought away. BY sew
en- a. m. of the 11th we had organized
at Ripley, and the army presented quite
respectable appearance, and would have
been able to accomplish an orderly retreat
from that point but for the unfortunate cir
cumstance that the cartridge boxes were
well nigh exhausted. At seven o'clock the
column was again put in motion ON the
Salem road.
The enemy pressed heavily on the rear,
and there was nothing left but to keep In
motion so as to prevent the breaking up OF
the rear and to pass all CROSSROADS before
the enemy could reach them, as the COM
mand was in no condition to offer deter
mined resistance, whether attacked in front
Or in rear.

"Pa, do horses run away with wagons be-
cause they love 'em?" "Well, 1 should say
not; but what put that absurd notion into

France, with a population of about
81 600, 900, collects over $500, 900, 900 in
taxes, an average of $15 head. The
Russians, with a population of nearly
70 600, 900, pay $500, 100000 in taxes.
Prussia of a population of $4,000, 900
collects about $3.50, 900, 900 tax, an aver
age of $40 head. Austria, exclusive
of Hungary, collects from population
of 22,000,0 900 nearly $40, 100000. Hun
gary, with population of 1880, 900,
collects about $10O,0OO,OOO The little
kingdom of Belgium, of her population
of 5, 500, 600, collects about $75, 900, 900.
The tax per capita is no indication of its
burdensomeness, and those that pay the
most relatively feel it the'least. France,
for instance, can pay $15 per capita
much easier than Russia can pay 81. In
fact, the disturbed condition of the Rus
sian Empire Is largely due to the OPP
pressiveness of this tax. The people OF
Belgium pay about the same tax per
capita as the French, yet a more con-
tented and prosperous people cannot be
found In Europe.

Among the consular reports recently
received by the Department Of State in
Washington is one from Consul General
Mattson, of Calcutta, relative to an i'm
portant proposed change in the laws
bearing on customs duties on goods i'm
ported into British India. The financial
budget for 1928, introduced March 8
in the Legislative Council. proposes "the
total abolition Of general import duties, 4"
leaving only special duties in force, to
wit, those on wine, beer, spirits, liquors,
arms, ammunition, salt and opium.
This is patterned after the policy of the
home government, which collects four
fifths of its entire customs revenue from
eight articles Of import, not, however,
corresponding entirely with the eight
species named here. The passage of this
measure will make free trade country
of India, and it will undoubtedly pass
unanimously.

The anti-Chinese bill which passed the
Senate Friday suspends the immigration
Of Chinese labOrers for ten years, and if
any person prohibited by the act should
come into the United States during that
period, he must leave within ninety days.
The master of any vessel who knowingly
brings a Chinese labOrer into the United
States during that period is liable>to a
fine not exceeding $500 for each immi-
grant and imprisonment not exceeding
one year. Chinese laborers who were in
this country prior to the ratification of
the treaty of November II, 1880, are not
subject to this provision of the act. The
Collectors of Customs are required to
keep a descriptive list of the labOrers be
longing to this excepted class, should
any of them take passage for their own
country, so that they can be identified
on their return and the shipmasters pro-
tected from the penalties of the act.
The departing Chinaman of the ex.
cepted class is also to be furnished
with a certificate, which he must
produce on his return. If he wants to
90 by land to the British possessions of
Mexico, he is entitled to a certificate
which viii assist in his identification if
he returns. Cinnamon who do not be-
long to the prohibited class when they
come to this country must have creden-
tials from their own government, show
ing that they are not immigrant "'labor
ers." The altering or forging of de-
scriptive- certificate is made a misde-
meanOr, to be punished by fine not ex-
ceeding 81 900 and imprisonment in the
penitentiary for a term not exceeding five
years. A Chinaman Of the prohibited
class who refuses to leave is to be brought
before a Judge or Commissioner of a
United States court, and if he is found
to be here in violation of the provisions
of the act, he is to be sent to his own
country at the expense Of the United
States Government. All courts of the
United States and State courts are pro-
hibited from admitting Chinese immi-
grants to citizenship. The word '1abor-
ers" in the act is to be construed to mean
both skilled and unskilled laborers and
miners

If the Chinese in this country are
smart, they will at once become
naturalized. They cannot be prevented
from so doing if they fully comply with
our naturalization laws as at present ex-
listing Then they ought to huddle to-
gether like the negroes in the Shoestring
district of Mississippi, and elect mem
Der of Congress. We now have two
races represented in that body, and then
we would have three-white, black and

tration of the fact that this is not white

Senator Jones, of Florida, delivered an
able address to the young Democracy OF
New York on Saturday evening last. He
opposed vehementlv the growing idea
that the government was paternal, and
that the public Treasury might be looked
upon as the legitimate agent to help the
various States out of difficulties and en-
barrassments, and argued that the sppli-
cation of the surplus revenues of the
government to costly internal improve
ments would lead to the decentralization
of the people and the subversiOn Of all
the ends of true popular government.
He concluded by appealing to the De-
mocracy of New York not to let local
discussions, the ambition Of party lead
ers, or the scramble for local Office divert
them from the main object of attack.
