The Surgeons Knife.
Wonderful Surgical OperatiOn-Re-
moval Of Urinary stones from
the Bladder Successful

Mr.. Simeon Tietsell, of Saugerties N. Y,
had been treated for seven years by various
physicians for what they call Structure of the
Uretha, without benefit. He finally consulted
DIR. David Kennedy, Of RondOut, N. Y, who
found his trouble to be urinary calculi or stones
of the bladder. The doctor at once removed
the foreign bodies with the knife and then gave
his great blood Specific, Favorte Remedy, to
prevent their reformation. The entire treat
ment was eminently successful and Mr.. Tiet-
selPs recovery was rapid and perfect.
While Favorite Remedy is a. specific in all
kidney and bladder diseases, it is equally valu-
able in cases of bilious disorders, constipation
Of the bowels and all the class Of ills appar-
emily inseperable from the constitution of wo-
men. Try it. Your druggist has it and its

man is he who puts this advice in practice.
Don't forget the name and address, DIR. David
Kennedy, ROndOut, N. Y. The Doctor would
have it understood that, while he is engaged
in the introduction of his medicine, ''favorite
remdy," he still continues the practice of his
profession, but codfines himself exclusively to
Office practice. He treats all diseases Of a
chronic character, and performs all the minor
and capital operations of surgery.

The Chronic Grumbler.

How often do we hear people bemOan-
ing their fate, when, if they would culti-
vate little more energy and call to
their aid pluck and determination, they
would succeed. No matter what our
calling in life, to be successful we must
have industry, perseverance and econ
Omy. The man that does not gauge his
expenditure within the line of his in
come will, to use trite saying, always
have his nose to the grindStOne. 1t is
necessary not only to ecOnOmiZe in what
we spend, but in judiciously arranging
our time to the best advantage. The
details must not be neglected for the
more OnerOus duties, either in business or
manual labor, and where system and
order prevail, there is time for all. The
main cause why so many fail to lay by a
comfortable competence for the winter
of life is that they spend their money be-
fore they earn it, and the more they earn
the more their wants increase; or they
become careless. and do not strive with
the same energy to do the best they can
for themselves or their employer. The
result is their business is neglected, or
their employer finds some one with
more energy to fill their places, and then
they bemOan their f;lte, calling it ill-luck
and envying their more Industrious
neighbOrs; and, as the cares of life in
crease, instead of manfully standing up
to meet them with determination to
succeed, they meekly succumb to what
they call their fate, and become chronic
grumblers.

A WORD FOR THE COMMON SOLDIER.

WORD FOR THE COMMON" SOLDIER.
To the Editor NATIONAL TRIBUNE:
l do not know when my time expires for
your paper, but when it does l am ready to
send again if 1T takes the last cent have got
like the sentiments you express, but it makes
me mad to read some of the things Congress is
doing-making appropriations for everything
but the soldier. Wen, 1 suppose Congressman
think the war is over, and they have no further
use for the soldier; but they still honor the
officers and those they think have any nfiu-
ence in politics. Congress is making appropri-
atoms for that class all the time and when one
of them dies they give the widow fortune to
start with. When an officer is pensioned why
does he receive a larger pension thana common
soldier according to his disabilities? Is he any
better, or did he perform greater amount of
service while in the army?" / think neither,
because he always had body-guard to protect
him, and the common soldier faced the music.
OF course, there are exceptions. The common
soldier, as a general rule, was and is more
needy. Congress gives to them that do not
need any more, and lets those who need it go
without. Yours truly, ELIAS ALLEN,

SPEAKER KEIFER IN THE WAR.

To the Editor NATIONAL TRIBUNE:
received my first copy Of your valuable and
interesting paper April %, and my eye first
rested on the article headed "An Incident of
General Keiier's War Record" 1 have a diff
feront version Of the event, and it may be of
interest TO some Of your readers.
The morning of the 9th Of April, 1865, Major
General II. O. Wright received orders to report
with his command, to Major-General Phil.
Sheridan. 1t appeared that Sheridan had Sc
lected the Sixth Corps for this special days
duty.
We closely followed the rctreating confed-
crates until they had crossed Sailors Creek"
where they threw up hasty and light rife-pits
just in the edge Of a wood this left Sailors
Greek" in a little valley like, which separated
Us from the enemy. The hill on either side
was about equal, but on both sides of the creek
1t was very marshy, wet, and muddy. The
corps was marching on this day with the Third
division in 'front.' consisting Of only two brig
AIDES, one Of which was General Kcifer's. AS
General Wright came up with the head of his
CORPS nc met General Sheridan who immedi-
ateIy gave him orders to push his command
over the creek and engage the enemy. General
Wright quietly remarked: Had we not better
wait until the corps comes up" Sheridan,
knowing his own plans best, replied, "ShOve
over what you have got, and the rest as they
come up" Wright immediately placed his ar
tilIery in position on the brow of the hill oppo-
site the enemy, and opened his guns, at the
same time giving orders to the Third division
(OnIy two brigades) 10 cross over and disodge
the enemy. The order was quickly obeyed,
but the enemy in their rifle-pits were too much
for them and many were driven back. During
this time Sheridan had sent his cavaly around
in the enemy's rear, knowing that when the
whole Of the corps came up there would be hot
and short work. And so it proved. The corps
passed over and dislodgcd and drove the enemy
before them. There was a sudden lul imme-
diately after the fight, and General Keller
who rescmbled much, at that time, confed-
crate officer, he having worn, it was said, in
that fight short gray jacket-advanced to the
edge OF the wood, where he was recognized,
ard, rs report had it, was forced to retire
hastily. lie was much angered, knowing that
the fight was over He Immediately called
upCn a captured confederate to advance alone
into the woods, and to tell them he would give
them Just five minutes to march out and sur
render, or he would open ms artillery upon
them The captured prisoner was 10th to COM
ply with tho order, but General Keifer's mad
was ~ and he went Ii a few moments after
he bad reached the wood a column of men was
seen Cling out IL fair order, which proved to
be Che naval brig de, which week before com
posed the crlv and officers that manned the
rebel gunboats "a the James River. They had
never een in .ight and were only followers
of the confederate army, and had not been
made acquainted with the surrender. But they
didnot all file out and surrender, for that even

A WORD TO CnNGRFSSNFS.

To the Editor NATIONAL TRIBUNE:
When the war commenced the whole people
at the North with unanimity never witnessed
in any part of the world before, voluntarily
rose to arms, but 1t must be recollocted at the
same time that these people did not leave their
quiet firesides and happy homes and go down
South at their own option. They did not be-
take themselves to the " Land of Dixie" on any
vyild-goose chase or quiXotic expedition. They
set their faces in that direction in obedience to
the orders of the President of the United States,
to uphold tie Flag, and majatoja The lar, where
the supremacy Of the law had been both defed
and condemned.
If it is still claimed by chronic croalzers that
those OF our soldiers who performed this service
had their lot cast in pleasant places let them
coniure up and ask the ghosts of the slain; ask
those who returned shattered in limbs, feeble
in body, and almost lmbecile in mind; ask the
widows and orphans, whose sole protectors, in
thousands of instances, rotted in prison pen
and were then flung in a ditch. =
Talk as we will, assert and asseverate to the
contrary as we may, there still remains the
startling and indubitable fact that the Govern
ment, if ever so willing, can never fully requite
the soldier for all that he has done and suffered
during the recent war. 1t is so colossal in its
proportions that it can neither be weighed.
measured, or computed by any process known
to man. The Omnipotent alone can compass
or fathom it.
This matter Of Government assistance by
way of pensions to those who received injury
or permanent debility while engaged in the
service during the late rebellion is being looked
into recently by quite a number whom it viii
be hard to silence or put down, and who have
hitherto maintained a stubborn silence on the
subject ever since the war.
If our members of Congress are wise in their
day and generation, they Will look not upon
the soldier with contempt, neither viii they
frown upon him any more, for 10 and behold
he has a votei
Close watch should be kept on this obstructive
element, which pervades TO n certain extent
both branches OF our national Congress; the
sheep shodid be separated from the goats, and
the righteous from the ungodly; or, in other
words, let Us see and know, by their votes and
their acts, who understands this question fully,
and will render unto Cesar what belongs to
Caesar, and un5o the soldier all that is his due.

BOUND TO HAVE IT.

To the Editor NATIONAL TRIBUNE:
L entered the service of my country at the
age of IS years, without ever having known
disease or pain except dyspepsia in the fall and
winter of 1S63r64. In Alabama and Georgia l
contracted rheumatism, which has increased in
virulence until am vary nearly disabled from
the performance of labor. Three years ago |
applied for pension / was not treated for
rheumatism as such in the service. / procured
the affidavit Of my examining surgeon and
regimental surgeon That I was sound and able
bodied when | entercdthe service, and by three
good credible witnesses that / was laid UP I'M
able to work, because Of rheumatism, the same
month | came home from the service. The
physician who treated me when l was laid up
with it died four or five years ago. Ny claim
was rejected because | could not prove that
was treate! for Rheumatism while in the service
by.my surgeon and medical evidence that l
was treated Immediately after returned home.
1t looks TO me as though the Pension Office adj
ministers Il kind of chop logic justice, where
one claimant must prove the mnutest points,
reasonable points should be sustained to pre-
vent fraud,) while another claimant can pro-
cure large amount Of money as pension on his
own personal affidavit alone. Such a case did
happen here within three miles of this place.
Reason and justice are virtues seldom practiced
in high places. | shall open my claim again,
and continue to do so as often as j is rejected
while | live, and when 1 am dead, if | have
not had it, my wife, if alive, will prosecute it.
My claim is a just one, and in accordance with
the promises of the Government to me when I
entered the service and the pension laws. I
am justly entitled to it, and by the Eternal I
am going to have it sometime, and no whining
or mincing about it either. l will haunt them
in time and eternity both if they don't give
me justice. W. II. CORNELL

ing. about o'clock, as ] was endeavoring TO
find the corps headquarters, | came upon n
citizcn-clerk of the quartermaster's department,
who hailed me and quietly informed me that
he had in his charge or had picked up, six con-
federate officers that they acted rs if lost, and
he wanted me to relieve him. l conducted
these officers to Captain Russell, the provost
marshal of First division. They proved TO be
quite young men-midshipmen, perhaps, of the
confederate naval brigade. That night we had
four or five general officers at our headquarters
to supper. Lieutenant General Ewell being the
ranking officer. I remember well that when
General Wright went to call Ewell to supper
he found him in tears. Wright Immediately
said: Tut, tut, Ewell, come and have some
thing to cat" Ewoll replied: 81 would give
my life to save the rest of my command This
is the story rs told that night all over the Sixth
Corps. J might add that Ewell came near
losing his life while looking for an officer of
equal rank to surrender to. l VIII add for the
information of those who do not know that the
remains of Major General John Sadgwick lie
buried in this quiet Now England town.
