AN ANTE-BELLUM INCIDENT.
1t Was Not Tecumseh Sherman Who Said He

1t Was Not Tecumseh Sherman Who Said He
Would Not Fight Against the South.
Louisville Commercial.
The special from Richmond Va, purporting to
give conversation between General, then Major,
w. L. Sherman and Mr.. E. NJ. Richeson now of
Richmond, just before the breaking out of the
rebellion, on a wharf boat at Vicksburg, then
owned and managed by Mr.. Rcheson, is incon-
sistent with the known facts of history and
probably involves case Of mistaken identity
Mr.. Richeson says that he was introduced by Cap
II. Sherman, who was commanding the regular
troops then being transported from their post at
Baton Rouge arsenal to the North. After some
business conversation the talk turned on the
Likelihood of war. Mr.. Richeson asked Major
Sherman if there would be war, and Major
would be, and added: II have spent
many years in the South. where
have received only the kindest treatment, and
before would fight against those people would
lose my right arm" That it was not General
w. T. Sherman with whom Mr. Richeson had
this conversation is assured by the fact that
General Sherman was not then in the army
having resigned his commission as captain In
1853 He never held the rank of major even by
brevet. General Sherman was living in Lou
isiana to within a short time before the outbreak
OF hostillties, but he was a private citizen and
engaged in teaching military school. AS he
was not in the army, he was. of course. not at
Vicksburg in command of detachmento of troops
at the time Mr.. Richeson specifies.
There was another Sherman in the army at
that time, captain and brevet ma or T. w. Sher-
man, who died in 1879, a major general on the
retired list. He lost leg at the capture of Port
Hudson, and was gallant and capable though
somewhat dyspeptc general officer. Mr.. Richie
sons conversation may have been with him.

which originated in fun, grew slightly bitter
and delayed the division of the House. Finally
Mr.. Holman was appointed in Mr.. Townshend's
place, and the motion was agreed to.
The House went into committee of the

What a Wife for Some One.
Cleveland Special.

A strange freak of nature has just been dis
covered in the city. Fred Grunwald, a SWISS
resides at $50 ST. Clair street, with his wife and
two children. Albertina, the youngest, two
years old, has two tongues. The second tongue
has grown from the root and on top of the first.
The mother first noticed it when the child was
three days old. The second tongue was then
quite small, but now it is as large as the real
tongue. The anterior part of the upper tongue
looks natural, but the posterior is CONSTRUCTED
and round, giving the unnatural growth pear
shape. The child has never experienced any
difficulty in swallowing its food or in breathing
looks natural in every other way, and has always
been healthy. The family has been in America
two and . half years, and in the city about three
weeks.
