FIRST TIME SINCE AppomArTox.
affecting Meeting Betsceen q Confederate
officer and C Union Surgeon.
| New York Herald.

New York Herald.
During the fighting that preceded the
surrender at Appomattox the cavalry on
both sides were very actively employed.
While directing some movements of his
command at the front Major General Fitz
Hugh Lee and his staff were often exposed
to heavy fire. One of the last shots fired
found its way into the breast of Captain
Charles Minnigerode, of General Lees
staff. Captain Minnigerode, fell from his
horse apparently dead. There was no
time to care for his body, but Fitz Hugh
Fee dismounting pinned on his breast the
following note:
This is the body of Capt Charles Minniger-
ode Of Gen. Fitz Hugh Lees staff. Whoever
finds it will confer great favor by seeing that
1t IS properly cared for and sending information
to his father at Richmond. FITz HUGH LEE.
The lines of combat shifted, and pres
emily New York regiment passed over
the ground. The surgeon noticed the body
Of the confederate officer, and STOPPING
over it saw the note and also that the man
was not dead. Taking up the body in his
arms the Union surgeon, who was pow
erfully built man, carried it about third
of mile to field hospital. Here he
gave his young charge special atten-
ton and noted with satisfaction gradual
improvement. Captain Minnigerode re-
covered and after the war went to New
Orleans. The surgeon returned to New
York and renewed the practice of medi-
cine at Poughkeepsie.
On Thursday evening General Lee, now
n, of Of RI WIrpipio 1raInIfhorc mo
tional guard), accompanied by party of
officers of the Thirteenth, was in a box at
the Casino witnessing the performance of
the "Queen'S Lace Handkerchief" There
were present in Gen. Lees box Col.
Austen, of the Thirteenth New
York; Col. Wertaubaker, of the Third Virg m
in; Col. John A. McCaulI, Quartermaster
Alderman of the Thirteenth, and Capt,
Minnigerode, who being on visit to New
York, had been invited to accompany his
old commander to the theater. An usher
entered and told the captain that gentle
man wished to speak with him. The gen
tleman came in and Captain Minnigerode
went to the rear of the box to meet him.
''You do not remember me-" said the
stranger.
'There is something about your face,
sir, that tells me I do know YOU" replied
the captain.
You were left for dead on the field of
Appomatto1 and
''Yes, yes" huriedly broke in Minnigsr-
ode, light of recognition stealing over
his expressive face.
II am DR.. Carter"
''My God, sir! you are the man who
saved my life"
The two men fairly Rugged each other
for moment, and then the captain, turn
ing to Gen. Lee, said:
General, this gentleman saved my life,
undoubtedly" As General Lee greeted
the doctor the latter said, smilingly:
Eyes, sir, took the bullet out"
''And here is the bullet" said Minniger-
ode, taking it out of his pocket and hold
ing it up between his thumb and ferefn-
ger.
For few moments the rich costumes
and pretty women on the stage were for
gotten and the little group of officers
gazed instead on the two characters who

BLAINE,s NEN BooK.

T,centy Years ia Coa0,ese--Wr. Rtofne as
an 4AWtJ'0r.
Washington Correspondent New York Tribune. I
1t is learned here that Mr. Blaine has
been for some time past engaged in pre-
pairing work of political history under
tie title of "Twenty Years of Congress;
from Lincoln to Garfield. A History
of National Legislation from 1861
to 1881" This is not to be in any
sense a work of "Reminiscences. and Mr..
Blaine has told his friends with whom he
has talked on the subject that whenever it
becomes necessary to allude to his own
share in the events of this period the al
fusion will simply be historical and not
personal. In other words, whenever the
author appears in the book, it will be as
''Mr. Blaine" and not as 81"
1t is expected that the book Will make
two octave volumes. There will be an
elaborate introduction, reviewing the
causes which led to the political revolu-
tons Of 1860. The main work will prob.
ably be divided into two parts: First,
the eight years of Lincoln's and Johnson's
administration, dealing with the
war, emancipation and reconstruction;
second, the twelve years of Grants and
Hayes administration, dealing with the
Southern state government, the wrongs
upon the ballot box, the enforcement
acts, currency and railroad questions, the
Alabama claims, annexation, civil service
reform, ETC., etc. This main portion of
the book will, of course, have the aid of
Mr.. Blaine's intimate personal knowledge
of the men and events Of the time which
it treats of. This will make its appear
ance an event of national Importance, es-
pecially as it is understood that the his,
tory is to be comprehensive one and is
not to be confined to any particular side
or phase of the anti-slavery conflict and
the civil war, as has been the case with
most of the histories written thus far. No
one who remembers the discriminating
and analytical tone of the eulogy on Gar
field, though it was delivered under cir
cumstances that would have led most ora
tors into profuse and unvarying eulogy,
will need to be assured that Mr..
Blaine's book will be written in the spirit
of the historian-for the future more
than the present.
1t is in the preparation of this book, and
other historical writings which Mr.. Blaine
is said to be contemplating, that he finds
it necessary to reside in Washinton, where
he can have access not only to the vast
stores of documents in the congressional
library, but many original papers, only to
be found in the imprinted archives of the
government. No time is assigned for the
publication of the book, but it is stated
that it is to be brought out by the Henry
Bill Publishing company, of Norwich,
Conn.

Thomas and Garfield and McCook, with
other officers, came to my headquarters
one day, and, in talking over the situation,
said that something ought to be done to
fire the hearts of our men, and make them
hate as the Southerners hated at that time.
They thought our men would fight better
if they were aroused to hatred of the
enemy, and that their fighting would fail
until this could be done. disagreed with
them, on the ground that the best men
were always brave and generous, and that
the absence of hatred indicated that they
would not only be victorious, but would
continue to govern the country"

1t has been discovered that a number of
policemen in Philadelphia have been using
a church for taking nap whenever they
became sleepy upon their beats. The
lieutenant of the district went into the
building, few nights ago, and suddenly
turned up the gas, when the tableau which
followed of a score or more of policemen
lifting themselves up from their recum-
bant position was said to be quite pic

WASHINGTON, Feb. 15.-In the senate in
executive session to-day, Mr.. Edmunds
called attention to the alleged abuse of
the privileges of the floor of the senate by
lobbyists and others, who, through the in
diligence of senators, have been in the
habit of obtaining cards of admission, os-
tensibIy as secretaries. With view to
correcting this evil, Mr.. Edmunds intro
duced the following resolution:
Ordered, that no person shall be admit

by senator of the United States appoint

geant-at-arms that he is actually employed
for the performance of the duties of such
secretary and is engaged in the perform
ance of the same.
After some discussion the resolution was

head the list, furnishing half the total, but
the immigration from Italy is on the in'

In brown holland apron she stood in the kitchen;
Her sleeves were rolled up and her cheeks all

Her hair was coiled neatly when I, indiscreetly,
Stood watching while Nancy was kneading the
dough-
Now who could be neater, or brighter, or sweeter,
Or who hum song so delightfully."- low,
Or who look so slender, so graceful, SO tender,
AS Nancy, sweet Nancy, while kneading the
dough?
How deity she pressed it, and squeezed it, ca
ressed It,
Aud twisted and turned it, now quick and now
slow
All. me. but that madness I've paid for in sadness
Twas my heart she kneading as well as the
dough.
At last, when size turned for her pan to the
dresser, -,
" Please go,
Or my bread I'll be spelling in spite OF my toiling
Ii YOU stand here and watch me While kneadlhg
the dough"
begged for permission to stay Shed not listen ;
Tae sweet little tyrant said, "No, sir no no !!
Yet when had vanished on being thus banshed,
MY heart stayed with Nancy while kneading the

RETROSPECTIVE MUSINGS.

What memories Of other days
the present brings. Yearslago when
the only means Of communication
with the east or west was by stage,
VIXEN the few merchants then in our
city brought ali their merchandise
from the Missouri river in ''prairie
schoontrs," as the monster wagons
were called, when the arrival OF
mule or OK trains was the signal for
playing "hookey" from school, then
Iuxuries did not enter largely into
the mixed freight which was
brought here. The toys and sweet
meats were scarcely known to the
majority of children. Sugar was a
luxury which brought the modest
sum of ST. per pound, and other
groceries were in proportion. When
an order was placed for goods it was
with the understanding that from
three to FIVE months must elapse be-
fore they would arrive. It was
pleasant to be a child in those days.
Strong as the inclination was not to
be noisy and boisterous, yet the
temptation was too great, and at
Christmas time the few large stores
were besieged with the cry of''shell
out" and boxes of candy and nuts
were emptied upon the floors and
soon gathered in by the boys. Such
names as William Jennings, KIM
ball & Lawrence, Godbe & Mitchell,
Bourne s. Needham, Gilbert & Ger
rish. and Bassett & Roberts will
live long in the minds of the boys
who were made happy by their lib
erality. Contrast those times with
the present. Every want is sup
piled by the thoughtful dealer OF
to-day. True, the means of trans
portation have been well nigh per.
fected, yet a study is made of that
which will most please the old and
the young. These days of pleasant
anticipation make it seem an age
since young men and women. were
boys and girls. The display of the
past week by our merchants of all
that is attractive, both useful and
ornamental, surpasses anything
that has been attempted in former
years.
Christmas trees are brought to
