THE REBEL CAPITAL,


below, on the James For some reason
we were ordered back to Fredericks-
burg, though we had crossed the Rap
pahannock, and by forced march
were brought within hearing of Nc
Clellan's guns.
while lying there in camp, after
our return, with nothing to do but bur-
nish our guns and aceoutrements, and
serenade the officers of our respective
commands, the month of May and June
sped away as time can only to soldiers,
with nothing to do, and we were
brought into July, when this incident
occurred.
The officers of the Seventh Wiscon-
sin, Colonel w. w. Robinson, now of
Mineral Point, Wisconsin, Major Bell,
now of Green Bay, and Adiutant Cook
had an order read on dress parade, July
third,

well. some of en- didn't. It's Il
fact-surprising as it may seem.
The news of the strange proceeding
spread all through the corps, and long
before the time fixed for dress parade
we had thousands crowding around.
The other regiments had to give up
their dress parade, because of the de-
sertions to see ours. There were men
from New York, with their zouave and
other uniforms, from Ohio, New Hamp-
shire, Pennsylvania, -from every regi-
ment that went to make up the old First
Army Corps-all crowded around to see
privates in command and the officers in
the ranks. Fortunately. they couldn't
distinguish the officers in the ranks, hut
you ought to have seen the way they
cHEERED THE NEW OFFICERS.
There must have been nearly ten thou
sand of them.
1--WE started out on our dress-parade
promptly. All were in place in time,
and the newly-appointed Adiutant went
through his duties with the greatest
nonchalance that could be assumed un-
der the circumstances. Among other
things, he read lot of burlesque orders
appearing to eminate from General John
A. Gibbon, who, | regret to say, was
not popular officer at the time, and
there was good deal of fun over them.
The crowd around us created considera-
BILE of confusion on the left and, in fact.
crowded our left entirely out of position.
At this critical juncture the quick eve
of Colonel McLin detected the cause
and in a sharp, decisive command he
ordered corporal and file of men from
each company to repair to the rear and
left, to remove obstacles
1.-The remainder of the dress parade
was promptly gone through with, and
well. The boys were put through
HARDEE's 'TIc-TACs,'
as we used to call it, in a manner that
brought out big cheer from the crowd.
That was nearly twenty years ago,
boys said the Captain, "and | re-
member that, with the disappearance
of the sun behind the Blue Ridge, and
darkness coming upon us from over the
Potomac, and the shadows of the beau
tiful pines stretching over us, we sur
rendered our easily acquired swords
and shoulder-straps and returned to our
old duties. 1t was only day or two
after that we were hurried Northward,
and we left a quarter of those who took
part in the fun on the second field of
Bull Run, and half of those who escaped
the fire of South Mountain and Antie-
tam fell right on the spot of their fun
six months afterward, at Fredericks-
burg. - Cincinnati Commercial.

Criticism Gone Mad.

To ths Editor OF the Globe.
It is not becoming morning paper OF the
pretentions Of the Pioneer Press, nor q poll
tician of the status OF Bill King. to forget
ths necessity of discretion and sober iudg
ment in dealing with matters of law. To
rush into print and accuse a Judge Of abetting
criminals by the leniency of his course, brings
down, or ought to bring down, in the absence
of any justification for the attack, the vir-
tuous condemnation of all men. In the mat
ter of the three card monte thieves who we're
lately brought before Judge Cooley
and let out on S700 bond each,
the remarks we have made are pertinent.
In the Minneapolis editorial column OF the
Pioneer Press this morning the politician re-
ferred to constructiyely charges the Judge
with abetting the criminal by not imposing
bail which they might not raise, so retaining
them for the punishment OF durance vile.
Perhaps Bill King knows exactly what a
Judge should do, but the bench, both in Min
neapolis and st. Paul, are scarcely OF his idea
Judge Burr, some time last year, had a paral-
lei case before him, where the confidence
game was played on the inevitable granger,
by IN cans OF a gold-bearing bond, ard the
bonds he exacted were $1,000, but on appeal to
Judge Wilkin the bonds were reduced to $500,
and nobody saw anything wrong. The law
provides that a fine anywhere between $500 to
81, 900 may be imposed by the court on con
viction, or punishment inflicted as an alter
native of from Two to five years imprison-
ment. Judge Cooley used his discretion in
fixing the bonds at S700, and, considering that
the Victims money will be returned, the opin-
ion OF all reasonable men will go In favor Of
Judge Cooley's course. Bills attempt to In.
criminate the Judge by charge of lax leni-
ency may be set down as the irregularity of q
diseased mind.

The charge was read, and the prisoner was
asked to plead "guilty or not guilty" He
asked further time, as he had not consulted
his attorney. Tie court granted him time
for consultation.
Wv. FoLwELL
wac next called forward. He was charged
with having In a violent aud angry manner
choked Asa Paine.
This distinguished prisoner, like Prof. Pike
did not wish to plead until ne had taker
counsel
The clerk then read the name OF
J,a MOORE,
who was charged BY the mayor with assault
and battery upon tbs person of Asa Paine
by beating him with club upon the head
back and arms. He also prayed delay, before
pleading, until be could take counsel.
J. G. Wooley, ESQ.,, who had previousl!
been sent for by the prisoners. soon ap
peared, and after n short consultation
asked the court TO adjourn the case until the
29th Instant without requiring his clients Il
enter plea.
Tie court granted the prayer, and Fresiden
Folwell ana Prof Moore were released upor

In tbs cass of Prof. Pike Judge Cooley

A few moments later the bonds were filed
with President Folwell snd Prof. Moore al

Dominion Parliament Dissolved.

OTTAWA, May 17.-The parliament Is pro-
rogued. The governor general, in a speech
from the throne. said: 81 congratulate you on
the rapid and successful development of our
manufacturing, agricultural and other In
dustries. am, however, advised that their
progress would be still greater were it not
that capitalists hesitate to embark their means
In undertakings which would be injured, If
not destroyed, by a change IN the trade and
fiscal policy adopted by you in 1879. In order.
therefore, to give the people, without further
delay, an opportunity Of expressing their
deliberate opinion on this policy. and at the
time to bring into operation measure for
the readjustment Of representation In the
house of commons, it is my intention to cause
this parliament to be dissolved at once"

President Vermulye, of the Merchants
bank ,ssays Of the gold shipments, sixty or
ninety days ago certain parties bought a
large amount of sterling on time, and now
they have TO meet their calls, as those who
loaned in Europe do not care to renew them.
Bills are maturing and bankers who issued
them have no alternative but to meet them.
This will make money dea~er. London is the
general clearing house for all European
nations, and thus no one can tell exactly how
it Is distributed. 1t is something which their
own correspondents here cannot tell. Sold is
not sent over for speculative purposes, as ii

onpos,n9 Pool Computations.

NEW YORK, May 17.-At meeting OF the
board OF trade and transportation committee
on railroad transportation. it was reported
that congress should make pooling combina-
lions and special contracts illegal. Resolu-
tions passed authorizing the committee on
canal transportation to secure the adoption
by the people OF concurrent resolutions pro-
viding for the maintenance OF free canals.
Government inquiry was asked into the pool
ing OF cable comp Anies, for. the reason that ut
the time the government authorized the
French cable company TO land on our shores,
it was with a stipulation that the company
should not combine In any form with other
com naniea.
