CHICKANIAUGA,
A Card From Gen. Rosecrans.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 28,-Gen. Rose
Grams furnishes for publication the fol-
lowing card:
Blaine, in his funeral Grafton before
the two houses Yesterday, said: "When
Gen. Garfield assumed his new duties
he found various troubles already we'll
developed and seriously affecting the
value and efficiency of the Army of the
Cumberland" / was commanding gen.
eral of that army. Gen. Garfield was my
chief of staff. Had this been The fact |
certainly should have known it. Gen.
Garfield was bound TO tell me of it.
Justice TO the truth of history and to the
Army of the Cumberland requires that l
should declare l never heard of
such a state of things until the statement
came from the lips of the orator to day.
The distinguished gentleman has been
wholly misinformed, and the statements
above quoted have no foundation in fact.
On the contrary, it was the general sen
timent and constant boast of officers and
men that the Army of the Cumberland
was singularly united and free from dis
sensions, and therefore no ones genius
was required to heal those discussions.
1 appeal to them to bear witness of this
fact. A few sentences further on Mr..
Blaine says: "His military duties closed
on the memorable field of Chickamauga
"a field which, however disastrous to
union arms, gave 10 him the occasion OF
winning imperishable laurels." He
might with justice have added, as Gar.
field would have added, sand to US the
key of the south-the objective point OF
the Chattanooga"

CAPITAL KEYNOTEs.
HAS DECLINED.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The Post
states positively that Conkling has de-
clined the associate Justiceship, and
suggests Clarence o. Seward for the
place.
VEST AND THE NATIONAL BANKS.
Senator Vest introduced in the sen
ate bill depriving the National banks
of power to issue circulation after July
1, 1882. He said he knew the finance
committee was opposed to this bill, and
therefore he would beg them not to
bury it, but give the senate a chance to
vote on it.
ANXIOUS FOR ITS PASSAGE.
The army officers are taking deep in
terest in the bill to provide for the COM
pulsory retirement of generals at the
age of 90, and all of them are anxious for
its passage. Members of the house mill
itary committee say that the committee
will report the bill favorably, and that
from conversations had with members of
the senate military committee lead them
to believe that they will agree TO the
bill and recommend its passage.
A RAILROAD PRoBLEM.
The senate committee on railroads to-
day resumed hearing statements relative
to the pending bill which proposes to
ratify the act of the Choctaw legislature
granting ElSnCOl-NdY through tne 1nQlhn
Territory to the st. Louis & San Fran
CISCO railrcrd. D. K. Trip, general
solicitor of the Chicago, Texas s Mex
lean Central railroad company, stated
that the st. Louis s. San Francisco COM
pany agreed with his Chicago company
that if it would withdraw the bill from
the Choctaw legislature and allow the
former company to procure a charter,
the St. Louis & San Francisco company
would make contract binding itself to
build bridge over the Red river Jointly
with the Chicago, Texas s. Mexican
Central company, and give it pro rata
running arrangements, to which he said
the latter company agreed.
aoNoRS FOR HINsDALE.
1t is understood that the president
has under consideration the appoint
ment of President Hinsdale, of Hiram
College, Garfield's old friend, 10 the mis-
sion to Hawaii. It is claimed that he
will do this or give him some other
place equally as good, because President
Garfield promised him an appointment,
although he never, so far as is known. in
dictated what it would be.

THE CRITICAL MAN.

Every newspaper editor will appreci-
ate the following from the Salt Lake

of every news gaIherer:
al noticed an article in your paper

man, coming up alongside the locals
table, THAT was all wrong Ii was so
much QUE of the way thai thought !
would come up and set the paper right"
I'VE are always glad to be corrected
when we make mistakes. What was the
article that attracted your attention."
ut was about the runaway on south
Temple street. was there "A few hours
afterward and found out the whOle1busi-
ness"
"Well, what was the matter With the
item?"
at was all wrong?
"Can't you specify some special fea-
ture that was wrongg"
well, you saiG the horses SHE'D at
some paper blown across the street, but
il was red rags. You said il was the off
horse that cut his leg. when in reality it
was the nigh horse. The reason that |
am so particular about these things is
probably because l never make mistakes
myself, and like To see everybody just
right. You said"
Just then little boy came rushing
into the room, quite excited, and called
out:
"Say, dad, there's man down at the
store kicking up duce of row; said
the change you gave him was four dol.
lars short, and had counterfeit two
dollar bill in it, beside"
And the particular and critical little
man hurried away to correct his mis-.
take.
| When he returned, his wife told him
that five or six customers had called in
and len again because she could not re
collect the prices of things. Pilgrimage
70 the Tribune office cost him about
| twenty dollars, and his misery was com
plete, when later in the day, he met the
man who owned the runaway team, and
learned that it really was the off horse
that. was cut, and not the nigh. He
then started out to positively ascertain
what started the team, and learned from
| various parties that it was q rubbish
