MEETING OF Col. CHAs. T. O'FERRALL
AND JOHN FLAHERTY.-The Washington
correspondent of the Richmond State, under
date of the 10th inst, says
"a strange and almost romantic meeting
took place in the Metropolitan Hotel last
night. A gentleman was sending up his
card to Judge O'Ferrall when by-stander
repeated the name in dazed sort of way,
and then said to the bell boy, '"Tell Charley
O'Ferrall that John Flaherty also wants to
see him." Both were directed to where
Judge O'Ferrall was, and proceeded to one
of the upper halls. There tho first mention
ed visitor, who claimed precedence, was
transacting his business with Judge OFFER
rail-, when the stranger, who had been gaz-
ing intently at the tall, gray haired figure
of the Judge suddenly rushed forward and
grasped him by the hand. ''Why, John =
''Why, Charley p and the two men were
locked in each others arms, the stranger
kissing his newly recovered friend on the
cheek. A brief interchange Of congratula-
lions and an appointment for all extended
interview to-day followed. 1t seems that
Flaherty, then recent University graduate,
left this city for Petersburg at the outbreak
of the war, and became lieutenant Of the
regiment of which Judge O'Ferrall was
colonel. They were close friends, but had
never met since until last night. Flaherty
has in the meantime seen many vicissitudes
of fortune. lie has been at sea for years
and out on the western frontier for long
time. He used to be a gay and handsome
young fellow, and was engaged to be mar
ried to the lady who afterwards became the
wife OF John Russell Young, now minister
to China, his marriage being postponed on
account of the war, and finally the two drift
