Sheridan and the Conductor.

Certain people who have tried to bulldoze
Sheridan in the past have Jared badly. A
case in point Is that Of big headed railway
conductor in 1863. w. F. 6. Shanlls, who was
along at the time, tells the story. Sheridan was
Of Bridgeport, Ala, and General Thomas was
ut Deckerd, Tenn. Sheridan visited Thomas
and Thomas came back with him to see his
works. The two generals went into the train
together. AT one of the stations the train was
delayed a long time. Sheridan went to the
conductor and asked him why he did not go on.
The conductor, who was big fellow of six
feet and over gave him gruff answer.
Sheridan advised him to be little more polite,
and ordered him to proceed with the train
The conductor said nothing, and did not give
the order for the train to go forward. After a
while Sheridan sent for the conductor, and
ssked why he did not obey his orders. The fell
low replied in an insulting manner that his or
ders came only from the military superintend-
emit Of the road. Sheridan did not give him
time to finish his reply He got up; struck
him two or three times with his fist, and then
kicked him off the cars. He then ordered the
train forward, and acted as conductor himself
during the trip. After the train started, he
again took hisseat beside General Thomas, and
resumed his conversation as quietly as though
nothing had happened.

JoHN nRoWN.

There came day, in October, 1859. when
the country was startled with the news that
John Brown, of Kansas and seventeen men,
had seized the arsenal at Harper's Ferry, be-
longing to the Government. You know the
story-how he was captured and hung; how
his followers were shot He had an idea that
the slaves would flock TO him. The people of
the South regarded it as an attempt on the
part of the anti-s slavery men of the North to
bring about war, and the feeling toward the
North became more intense, for, one by one,
the Northern States were electing governors,
legislators and members of Congress who were
pledged to resist the extension of slavery into
new Territories. A new political party had
come into power, which would elect the next
President Seeing this, the politicians and the
great shareholders of the cotton growing States
laid their plans to secede from the Union.
/ shall tell you in my next letter how they
carried out their plans and began the war.

KANSAS.

In 1854 bill was introduced into Congress
repeating the compromise of 1920, which pro-
hibted slavery north of the southern boundary
of Missouri. The object of the repeal was to
enable the shareholders to take their slaves
into Kansas The people of the free States
FASTENED into the Territory. There was much
fighting, which intensified the bitterness be-
tween the North and the South. Kansas be-
came a free State. The shareholders saw that
their political control Of Congress was gone
and prepared to carry out their plans to secede
from the Union

HIS FITZ-JoHN PORTER SPEECH.

Probably the greatest effort" Of Mr.. Lozan,s
life, and perhaps the most effective speech ever
delivered on the floor of the United States
Senate, was his mastery address In opposition
TO the bill TO authorize the President to restore
Fitz-J0hn Porter TO the army with ell the
rank, .title, and privileges to which he would
have been entitled If there had been no court
martial
There have bsen greater oratorical displays
no doubt, but, beyond any question, never has
there been any speech delivered in the Senate
of the United States that had more real effect
in convincing the minds of Senators not al
ready predisposed TO the sentiments of the
speaker, than that mastery speech-that four
days Of eloquent and earnest protest "egainst
the stupendous reward to him who, the judg-
ment of the court says faltered In duty and
failed IN honor In the hour of peril and climax
of battleh
The opening words of the speech disclosed
how confident the Senator was that he had
completely mastered the subject After stating
how Important he deemed the questions to be
that were presented by the bilI-especally as
establishing precedent, he said: " In order
| that we NAY properly understand this case and
the question: presented therein, / give notice
| that in this discussion, If ut any point any
Senator desires to interrupt me for the purpose
Of obtaining information, or for the purpose o,
having light thrown upon the case, 1t will give
me great pleasure to throw open the gates, se
| that we may have the matter fairly and hon.
| sstly undsrstood.o
And his perfect candor Is exhibited by ths
