4 Boys Pistol OF Fifty Years -1go.
West Chester penn Record, Nov. 4.

Week before last. Titus Darlington, car
penter, in tearing down a portion of the
farmhouse of Taylor Hopes, of West Go
shen township. Chester county, in order to
enlarge the building, came across large
sized horse pistol that had been lost for
fifty years. In 1882 Taylor Hopes and
his brother, Lewis, the latter now deceased,
purchased this pistol from q gansmitih il
West Chester named Emanuel Gosler for
S2.50-cheap enough, considering the size
and quality of The weapon. Ben ;arnin
Hopes, tho father Of the boys. wfo we're
about sixteen years Of age, did not approve
of tbs lads having so dangerous a play
thing-Mr. Hopes was a wise man-so the
boys concluded TO keep ''Old Diamer,' as
much ont of parental eyesight as possible,
and they hid it away in the loft of The
house over the collar beams between the par
tition and wall. To have it convenient for
use, they made little wagon, in which
they placed "Old Diamer," powder horn
and small bag of shot. To the wagon
they attached the string, and thus they
lowered and pulled up the artillery wagon,
gun and ammunition wagon when they
wished to uso them, or hurry them out Of
sight of the ''oid man. But one day the
rope broke-whether the old gentleman
was hunting the boys too close" we can
not say-and down to the bottom Of the
PARTITION went wagon, pistol and ali, with
a crash that sent sadness to the very bot
tom Of the hearts of Taylor and Lewis.
After fishing for day il and day out with
pole ana hook, with TIE hope Of catching
the wagon and drawing it up, they aban-
doned the task and gave up their treas
ure as lost. When the carpenters tore
down The building, Taylor Hopes. who is
now man Oh the shady side of life, stood
by, thinking of ''Old Diamer.' Board af-
ter board was taken down, and the little
wagon at last came in sight,
and in it lay ''Old Diamer," the powder
and shot, all in the same good condition,
with the exception of a little rust on the
pistol, as the day they so suddenly went
from the sight of the boys half century
ago. Mr. Hopes rubbed the pistol with
a little oil, loaded it with the old powder,
aud, in honor of the occasion. sho} it Off
with a report that made ths Goshen hi;ls
echo.

to Judge Lawrence as fol-

of audit is awaiting tbs presentation Of
Ey claim against the estate of the late

your suggestion that nay make to the
board any further Communication I may
deem proper, I will say that, in the prsssn-
tation OF claim which I know cannot be
paid oct Of the srm cf money ($35, sOO)
placed at your disposal by congress, ny
intention is only to indicate to you what I
would regard as the minimum eompsnsa-
ton for similar services in the case Of a
private citizen, who WAS pscuniarly re-
sponsible, and who vould not be embar-
as5ed by such payment. x will fur

Hssailtoa said: These circumstantial

ss.rt they seem TO be rendered necessary by
she fact that tiore are limitations to the
consragy il tf.e report of tho house COM
snittee and obtained apparently from
sources Which the committee considered

to place the payment of the medical attend
ants upon purely business basis, and
Toar board has therefore properly instruct

ever, engaged Longstreet's attention by
demonstrations nearly harmless to himself,
and so successfully as to cause Longstreet
to take Wilcox's division from in front of
Pope, in order to strengthen the line con-
f onting Porter, who at the time was aware
of this movement Of forces coming from the
right to his front, and notified Mcdowell
of it. Thus Porter, without sacrifice of
men, and without endangering airy inter-
ests, did more for Pope's relief than if he
had gone directly to that generals assist
ance. To have done SO would probably
have sacrificed his corps without any bene-
fit, and ieoparded the safety of Pope's
army.
So far as have investigated the case
and have studded it, think, pretty thor
oughly-I see no fact to base the charge
of retreat upon. do not see that any ar
gument to prove this is necessary, because
any reader of history may be defed to find
where and when General Porter retreated
during the time specified.
In my judgement this disposes Of the
charges, and consequently of all specifca-
tons under them, except the alleged dis
obedience of the 4:3O p. m. order.
In regard to the charge of disobedience
of the 4:3G order, which is the principal
order and the one that has most deeply
impressed the mind of the general public,
there are evidences which look to me i'm
portant and conclusive, showing that the
court martial which tried General Porter
found him gully under mistaken idea OF
the facts. now accessible to any one in
search of the truth, and which Porter
knew. to be the facts at the time. AS

lib S5OfdhCo pceltION. OTtcT was eQOWu Oy
Mcdowell dispatch from General Bu-
ford, sent at $50 on the morning of the
29th, stating that from seventeen to eigh-
teen regiments of the enemy had passed
through Gainesville three-quarters of an
hour before, or at quarter before nine
O'Clock, on their way to reinforce Jackson,
50 that the head of the column must have
been not only in supporting distance of
Jackson, but at the place of deployment
by 10 O'Clock in the morning; and now it
is known, as it was known by Porter at the
time. that Longstreet, with some $4,000
men, was in position confronting Porter
by II o'clock on the Goth of August, four
hours and half before the 400 order was
written.
While at the head of their united forces,
between II and o'clock. and while Porter
was preparing to attack the enemy in his
immediate front, Mcdowell, then in COM
mand, showed Porter the ''joint order" and
also Buford's dispatch. It was evident
from this dispatch, corroborated BY the
enemy's movements in their immediate
front, that the main forces OF the enemy.
which the s'joint ORDER said were far dis
tant, had not only arrived but had formed
a junction with jackson and deployed in
their 'front.' Porter knew of this from an
other fact. He had prisoners from that
force Longstreet's troops. The object
of moving towards Gainesville had been
thus defeated, and any further advance, if
practicable, would only the more widely
separate them from Pope's forces, then
checked at Grovston, at least two miles
distant, and with which they we're ordered
to establish communication" Mcdowell.
as he had the right, at once withdrew his
troops, leaving Porter with 10000 men to
confront Longstreet's $4,000, while he
went by circuitous route to a point be-
tween Porter and Pope to establish the
communication enioined.
Thus left alone, facing superior num-
bers advantageously posted, and ignorant
of the needs of Pope, if indeed he had
any, Porter had necessarily to bide
McDowelPs arrival on his right. In the
mean time his duty was manifestly to en-
gage Longstreet's attention and prevent
hin, from moving against Pope, especially
while Mcdowell was out of support of
both Pope and Porter. Porter all that
day did not hear of Mcdowell, or of what
was taking place in front of Pope, though
he kept the former well informed of af-
fairs with him, and presumed that his dis
patches were sent to the latter. He, how

GROVER CLhvELaNG'S LETTER.

The letter of Grover Cleveland, the Dem.
ocratic candidate for Governor of New
York, is full of very acceptable senti.
ments, and it may be regarded as express.
ing the real belief of the nominee, If we
can judge his character from the very com.
plimentary descriptions of him given even
by Republican journals in his own State.
For he is generally admitted to be very
upright, honorable, sincere man, and he
has the complete confidence and esteem Of
his own community. Bat when Demo.
crat runs for Governor in New York State
he has to count upon the aid and support
of many thousands of the worst enemies
of honest and conscientious administra.
tion, and he will be fortunate indeed if he
is able to pass through the campaign with.
out sullying his honor by explicit bargains
with this corrupt element. Mr.. Cleve-
lands letter is sound, but the practical
consideration is as to its connection with
the methods which are about to be EN-.
ployed on his behalf

TEE LAST SAN FRANCISCO MURDER

The last San Francisco murder appears
an unusually plain case, and it will be in
teresting to follow it in the Courts, and
to see if it is possible to administer Justice
under the circumstances. A Swedish
sailor had a quarrel with the landlord of
his boarding. house. He determined, there
fore, to kill the landlord He went out.
bought a pistol and cartridges, went to bed
and slept upon his murderous project, went
about all the next day with it in his mind,
and in the evening deliberately shot and
killed his victim, and than exulted over the
deed, at the same time stating that he had
known he would be hung from the first.
The murderer has talked freely to every.
body who called upon him. He has told
everybody why he wished to kill the land.
lord. He has exhibited his revengeful mo-
tive in the plainest way. And now it
remains to be seen whether plea of in
sanity will be entered in his behalf. and the
usual frivolous defense advanced in con-
nection with that plea. 1t is perfectly
apparent that the man is sane. He was
not drunk when be planned or when he ex
ecuted the crime He did it in cold blood,
and with full understanding OF the ma
ture and extent of the responsibility he
was about to assume. The question is,
will he escape, under these circumstances
