Srocxs-The week opened at the Stock
Exchange without any material change IN
the general situation. Prices are to
per cent. lower and nothing new has been
developed since Saturday to influence
values, but the persistent selling movement
in which Lackawanna led, drove
quotations down in the first hall
hour from l to 2 per cent. In the
meantime New York Central AMI LAKE
Shore remained strong without making any
important advance, and the st. Paul and
Union Pacific market drifted into an ex-
tremelv feverish and unsettled condition.
The enormous sales Of Lackawanna, accom-.
plished by the advance in price, furnished
little or no guide for the rest Of the market.
The street was we'll supplied with rumors,
including a report that Gould and White
had disagreed late Saturday afternoon as
to the policy to be pursued regarding the
market and that the former was therefore
not lending any further aid in supporting
| prices. This report was more generally
believed when a dispatch from the Wind
sor Hotel was freely circulated, stating
that Mr.. Gould was in the lobby watching the
weather and not the market, aud later came
announcement from Gould's office that he
would start on his southern trip this week.
Friends of the recent bull party claim they
have already unloaded on those who were
most prominent to-day in supporting prices,
and that this is correct explanation OF the
movements of the past two days. AS
indicating the irregular condition OF
the market it may be stated
that New York Central at 92i, Lake Shore
at G33 and Northwestern at %, reached the
highest prices Of the day at the close OF the
board. Taking &c ofthe most active stocks
the changes in prices as compared with
Saturday evening, show about an equal
number of gains and losses, but in no case
does the difference either way exceed !

New Ulm weekly review. [volume] (New Ulm, Minn.) 1878-1892, 1885-08-26

On that line If it took all summer to
quote the words of commander whose
name probably ought not to be used in
connection with SO trivial an affair as
the battle of New Ulm.
About 10 o'clock the Indians were
sighted coming out of the timber a.
Dove the town at a distance of say two
miles and half. Here they stopped
and massed. Then we saw fires along
the bluff on the Nicollet side quite
down to the ferry. There was an I'M
Outstanding between the two sections
OF the enemy, that when they arrived
at the two points of attack, the one A.
Dove and the other below the town,
fires were to be set as signals for a
general advance. We saw two smokes
arise about at the same time. and
then the Indians from the point above
the town advanced about 400 STRONG
some on foot and some mounted. in =
general mass, without, of course. any
very regular formation.
Here I must diverge to describe
our plan of defense. We thought we
could better meet the enemy on the
open prairie than behind our breast
works, so | stationed all the men in
line OF battle on the plateau outside of
the town. We made pretty formid-
able line as the troops were posted.
Each company was deployed two deep
ana an interval of several rods left be-
tween them. This line was formed saw
about an eighth Of q mile outside of the

Our troops posted themselves as cir
cumstances indicated in various parts
OF the town. and did their fighting in
their own way, holding all points of the
barrlcades. and performing their duty
manfully. Occasionally a man would
be stricken down, and would be car
rled to the hospitals which had been es-
tabllshed in various parts of the town
by the surgeons.
we were peculiarly well supplied
with a corps of experienced and skilled
surgeons. The Mankato company had
with them DR.. McMahan. The 70
Saeur companies had with them Drs.
Mayo and Aver. My company had DR..
Daniels, and the town furnished Dr..
Weschcke and perhaps others, all of
whom were well-known surgeons of the
valley: Their care and devotion to the.
wounded and dying relieved the sitna.
ton OF many of its horrors.

later the city was all animation. Teams

some coming long distances and ali
with one and the same object in view,
viz. to do honor to the brave men who
left their homes and families, and risk

The heavens were obscured by heavy
and threatening clouds, and about 8

their warfare, they commenced firing
the buildings. The citizens were utterly

Several people were shot in the streets,

A Cleveland Justice recently rem
dered a decision that will no doubt
send a thrill of qualification through
the minds of those who are required
to decipher manuscripts, and at the
same time act as a warning to bad
chirographists. An attorney who is
noted for his bad penmanship filed
several affidavits, which the opposing
attorney, even with the assistance Of
an expert copyist, was unable to de-
cipher. He went before Justice
Strong and made a motion to have
the afidavits stricken of, which mo,
ton he granted after looking at the
writing, adding: sit is 4 disgrace
to take up the time of the Court and
clerks with such writing. / am q
poor penman myself, and when I
practiced law I always employed Il
clerk to do my writing.

Higgins has friends as well as en-
emies, aud his friends are just as re-
spectacle as his enemies. An address
to Secretary Manning, signed by
Mayor Latrobe, several bank presi
dents and q number Of prominent
business men of Baltimore, says of
him:
GAS good citizens and honest friends
of the administration, we unhesitat-
ingly give our unqualified indorse-
n emit of the appointment of Mr.. Hig-
gins as q mar of honor and integrity,
and IL in every way fully competent
to discharge the duties of the place as
signed him. Mr.. Higgins has held re-
sponsible and fiduciary places at the
hands of the people of his native city
of Baltimore, where his family reside.
The duties of each and every Office he
has held have been discharge with
fidelity and competency. He has been
a member of the second branch of the
City Council of Baltimore for two
years, a member of the Legislature
for two years, and Secretary of the
Senate of Maryland for two years.
All of these positions he filled with
credit to himself and to the entire
satisfaction of the people of the city OF
Baltimore. We hope, therefore, you
will not be deceived by any partisan
or factional clamor against him.

The New York Sun in answer to q

The New York San in answer to q
young man who asks about long en-
gagements, and whether he should
ask the lady to wait on him for three
or four years, puts it squarely as fol-
lows:
ave therefore say to him that he
should come to the point at once, at
Cnce put the m0mentous question,
and go forth either transported with
the delight of an engaged man or cast
down into the misery of rejected
lover. He should not compel her to
draw differences only, but tell her
plainly the state of his feelings, and
declare Enthusiastically what his rur-
pose in seeking her society is. Then
it will be for her to say whether she
will accept him With the prospect Of
a long engagement; and Of course he
cannot ask her to wait for him with
out formally and firmly engaging
himself to her.

Speaking of President Cleveland,
Samuel i. Tilden says: "He stands
at once in the proudest and most
periIous position. lie has one great
possession that will enable him to
overcome all obstacles and dangers
"a high-minded siDgleness Of pur-
pose and devotion to the trust he has
accepted. With his comparative
youth, absence from distraction by
family cares, love of hard work and
determination to succeed, there is q
bright prospect of successful and
pure administration. The task be
fore him is immense. The depart
ments are full ofcorruption. But he
will be equal to it-he will be equal
to it, you may be sure"

The following, from the Sandusky
Journal, gives m instance of how
rapidly changes were made in the
federal Offices when the republican
party came into power in 1861:
Our republican fellow citizens who
affect such horror in the contempla-
tion of the probable supersedure Of
Postmaster Keys and Collector Rude
by democrats in the near future
should burnish up their memories
and recall an incident of t~wenty-four
years since, when John NJ. Brown,
ESQ.,, who then affixed p. NJ. to his
name by the authority of President
Buchanan, was superseded by MIR.

scorn these earnest men of principle
and labor, but when conventions are
to be organized, nominations made,
and elections carried, it will not do
to scorn them. For our part, we cher
ish more respect for a single Bour-
bon who works a: the primaries and
is always seen at the polls than for
fifty superine theorists who think
themselves superior to the people and
look OH politics and parties as only
worthy of contempt.

The appointment of Pearson,
Republican, as postmaster of New
York city, Of curse made a number
of good Democrats very indignant.
1t shows, however, that President
Cleveland has quite Il high idea of
how the government should be ad
ministered. His idea is 4 you'd one,
too. Better than any Republican that
we know of. Whether he will tie per
mitted to carry ont his ideas we DO
not know, but we hope he will. We
would like to see something better in
the appointment of officers than we
have ever had before. 1t is right that
a Democratic administration should
have democratic support, but ii
should also be borne in mind that
this is a government of the whole
people and not one party only. This
is something the Republicans always
forgot.

When the term of President Cleve
land shall have expired on the 4th day
of March, 1889, the first century of
our constitutional history will have
ended. Washington's presidential
term began in 1889. During the SO
years of cur constitutional history
the country has been under demo
cratic rule As years, under republican
rule "a, under federal ard whig II.
1t is the hope of the democratic pa
triots that the country is about TO
enter upon 4S years more of demo
cratic rule.

The London Echo thus candidly
speaks of the position of Ireland to-
ward England: "Ireland is not 10y
al. Give the Irish o fair chance of
success and they would be in rebel
jan to morrow. We ho.d Ireland as
we hold Egypt and India, by the
terror of our arms. Let England be
in conflict with some great power
and one great defeat would be fol
lowed by an Irish rising" This is
said to be the first time any English
paper has INDUCED in such plain
talk.
