Is ANY one foolish enough to believe
that members of cattle syndicates in
England, Scotland, New York, Chicago
and other northern cities want to pay
anything for the use of lands to educate
school children in Texas? But they
want free grass. These men care as lit
tie for tho welfare of the children of
Texas as they do for the wild sayages in
the interior OF Africa.

The Goth Ohio at Atlanta.

To THE EDITOR: The 22d day of July, 1884,
makes me think of what Twas dong on that
day 20 years ago. was a member of Co. g, goth
Ohio, and about noon was eating some stewed
green apples and hard tack with several COM
rades in front of Atlanta. We were laughing
and joking, when Gen. Mcpherson rode by
within 10 feet of us, and upon his face he wore
the same pleasant smile we all loved so well.
He was on his last ride. Within 10 minutes
after he passed us the rebels opened fire on our
rear, followed by an attack from the front. The
Goth and 18th Ohio held their position against
the most fearful odds / ever witnessed during
the war. The battery on our left was taken by
the rebels and turned upon us full and fair,
and they did give it to us in good shape. A
rebel General was killed in front Of the left
wing of the Goth Ohio about the same time Gen.
Mcpherson was killed. Nearly all of Co.'S B
and G were taken prisoners. About o'clock
p. M, it is said, orders were given for the Ohio
brigade to fall back. If such orders were given
they were not obeyed. That brigade was COM
posed of the goth, 18th, and 65th Ohio, command
ed by Gen. M. ID. Leggett The 69th Ohio was
back somewhere on duty, but about o'clock
they came to our rescue and did heroic service
The Second Brig, Third Div, Seventeenth
Corps were never ordered to take a position
they did not take. They never were ordered
TO hold position that they did not hold, and
the last order ever given by Mcpherson, no
doubt, was when he gave orders along the line
for that position to be held by all means. and
that position was held at the sacrifice of many
a noble life, and many a veteran carries the
scar of that day and nights battle. Our bri-
gade commander NJ. F. Force) and his adiu-
tant (Walker) were disabled early In the tight.
Force was shot through the face and Walker
through the thigh. The latter lost his leg, and

rectly as to cause me to feel an uncommon

of our line and killed and wounded several of
the men in the company next to mine Col.

ranks massed the regiment in column by di-
vision, to save us from more harm from that
battery, which seemed to range exactly length

Spanish Fort and Fort Blakely on the east side

and laying them side by side, for the teams and

Evidently Needs Correcting.

To THE EDITOR: In THE NATIONAL TRIB-
UNE of July "a see a copied article, entitled
"a Brave Woman, and How She Came to
Mend Gen. Magruders Pantaloons." In reply,
/ will say that no doubt but the story is true,
with the following exceptions: /. There is no
point south of Fort Scott known now nor dur
ing the war as Fort Smith, in Kansas. 2. There is
no such prairie as "Cow-Skin Prairie in the
State of Kansas; at least, not near the border of
Missouri. 3. There was no Gen. Dinwoodie
nor Maj. Purey who ranged through here. 4.
The I'd Colo. belonged to the Fourth Brig,
Blunts Div, Army of the Border, and was
fighting Prices army at Westport, Mo-, when
that train was taken Oct. 3d. 1864. 5. We
never captured Gen. Magruder. 6. No one was
burned to death that is known. At that time
1884 l belonged to Co. G, Sd Wis. Cav. First
Brig, Blunt's Div, Army of the Border, and
was thar" in all the fighting from Lexing
ton, No. Oct. 10, 1864, until after Price passed
Fort Scott, Kan, and was raised and now live
in less than 90 miles of where Capt. Dobbins
was killed and that train was captured. Stick
to the truth. Some one is mistaken. I refer it
to the boys who served here and the records of
the War Department, and will let them say who
it is.-HUGH L. THOMPSON, Carl Junction, Mo.

ncCaslin Post Band.

To THE EDITOR: In your mention Of promi-
nent bands at the Minneapolis Reunion you
speak of band as the " McCaslin Mo- Band"
l wish to state that there was no MeCaslin
(hfo.) Band there. The band referred to was the
McCaslin Post Band, of Paola, Kan. 1t was there
as the Kansas Headquarters band. It received
much praise for its music and the style of its
march on the grand parade Those who were
at the West House Tuesday evening, July y,
will remember how well this band, together
with the Topeka Modocks. were received.
Paola sent a delegation Of 90 persons to Camp
Beath. McCaslin Post went as Post, and in
the parade it carried the flag of every corps of
the army. All who went seem to be pleased be-
yond their expectations. 1t was left for Min
neapolis to carry off the medal in doing for the
boys We shall never forget her hospitality
and greatness, and shall hope to see another
Reunion of the GAR. at that city.-S. P.

With few exceptions, the first effects Of the
new Vitalizing Treatment of Drs. Starkey g.
Palen, 1109 Girard ST., Philadelphia, is an i'm
provement in appetite and digestion. A change
in the whole personal appearance soon follows.
The skin grows clearer, the eyes brighter, the
movements moro elastic There is s sense of
lightness and comfort. The chest begins to
expand and the weight to increase. All the
depressed or sluggish functions of the body take
on better action, and there is gradual return
to a more healthy condition. If the Treatment
is continued and the laws of health carefully
observed, restoration, unless the physical
system is too far broken down, will follow 10
nearly every case. All desired information in
regard to this remarkable Treatment viii be
furnished by Drs Starkey & Palen. Write to
them, and your communication will get g
prompt response.

The 9th n. ]. at Roanoke.

To THE EDITOR: Carleton" In his account
of the battle of Roanoke Island, published in
THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE of July "a, does in
justice to the 9th N. j. by entirely ignoring
that command, which took no unimportant
part in the battle and contributed in no small
degree to the brilliant success achieved there.
Gen. Jesse L. Reno, commanding Second Bril-
gade Burnside's division, in his official report,
dated Feb. 10, 1862, says:
Finally, after the lapse of about two
hours, we succeeded in turning their (the enemy's)
right. / then ordered a charge, which was most
gailantly executed by the oath Mass, 5lst n. Y.
and 9th n. ]. The honor of first entering
the fort is divided between the 5lst N. Y. and the
oath Mass. but all charged gallantly.
The 9th N. J.'s loss in the battle was as great
as that sustained by any other command, and
more than double that of the 9th N. Y. (Haw-
kinss Zouaves), which took no part in the
contest except to join in the charge which was
first made by Gen. Reno's Brigade. MApI-
SON DRAKE, 9th N. j., Elizabeth, N. J.
