Mr.. Washburne explained that he was
a graduate of West Point, and had seen
service in the Mexican war. "Send
Captain Grant down here" was the re-
ply. While Grant was at work at the
duty assigned him the colonel of a regi-
ment came in one day and said that he
could do nothing with his men, and
offered to resign in Grants favor if he
would take command of it, Grant went
out to see the regiment and, being sat
isfied that the men were full of fight
and would make good soldiers, accepted
the command. Instead of taking his
soldiers from Springfield to Quincy by
rail, he marched them on foot, and by
the time they reached their destination
they knew they had no militia colonel to
deal with. Then followed Belmont,
Donelson, Shiloh, and those other VIC
tories which have placed Grants name
with the highest of the worlds heroes.
General Grant became acquainted with
Mr.. Washburne in this wise: Some
gentlemen were one evening discussing
in one of the stores of Galena subject
relating to the Mexican war, and, Mr..
Washburne coming in, they appealed to
him for decision. He replied that he
was in doubt with regard to it, and
would like to have some information
about it. A gentleman remarked: "Mr.
Washburne, there is gentleman back
here who will be able to answer that
question for you," and took him back
and introduced him to Captain Grant.
After having gained the information he
sought, upon retiring he asked the
friend who introduced him. "Who is
this Captain Grant ?" Upon being told
that he was brother to Orville Grant,
he said: "He is very smart man, sir. ="
Before the war, in conversing with a
friend, he one day expressed himself
pretty strongly in regard to the AFRO
gance of some of the southern officers
of the army whom he had met in the
Mexican war, and said: "There is one
of them whom / would like to get even
with, and that is Bishop Polk" After
the war had closed he remarked to his
friend that when those fellows were
running away from him he used to
think how he talked about them when
he was in Galena. When standing near
his headquarters while at the south one
! day, one of the natives came up and
asked him to point out General Grant
to him. He pointed to DR.. Kitto of
Galena, who was long time upon his
staff. His visitor surveyed the doctor
and remarked: "He's a id ornery-
looking old cuss, amt he 20 Upon visit
ing Galena he good-humoredly joked the
doctor about the comment that was then
made upon him. Upon his last visit tC
Galena friend asked him how his boys
were getting along. He replied 81

A Peculiar Case.

The physicians who attended Presi-
dent Garfield after his fatal wounding
by Guiteau were surprised in the prog
ress of his case at the swelling of the
glands in his neck, and investigated for
a cause. They at that time supposed
the bullet that inflicted the wound to
be concealed near the groin, and con-
Guided it had poisoned the glands and
was the cause of the engagements.
They searched the medical records of
the war, without finding a case to sus-
tain their opinion, but they still adj
hered to it. Edward Baker of Mont
pelier at that time was pressing a
claim for additional pension, on account
of the enlargement and suppuration of
the glands in his neck, resulting from u
wound in the groin. He cited the
presidents case as an authority show
ing the right of his claim. But the
president died and the ball was found
in a distant part of the body from the
groin. The weight of this case as an
authority suddenly vanished, and Mr..
Bakers claim was disallowed. But
Mr.. Baker was not weakened in his
own conviction that the wound caused
the glands disease. He assumed that
the skilled physicians who treated the
president had some professional real
son for the opinion they had advanced.
His lawyer, assisted by an eminent
physician, examined medical works
upon that subject. Not a case on

When LOngstreet Gave it Up.

81 never doubted the final success
of the confederates till after Chica-
mauga," said Gen. Longstreet. After
that knew that we were beaten Just
as well as knew it after AppomattoX.
1t was simply question of figures

every ounce he looses is lost forever
no machinery in him to restore it. But
your armies. The best army you had
was the Army of the Potomac. Con-
siderably astonished at this, | asked
why it was so often defeated. Because
it always fought at the greatest disad-
vantage, was badly generated and was
opposed to our best. Just see how
quick it came on top when it met us
with equal advantages He then traced
on the ground the plans of the various
battles in Virginia, and showed that
the confederate advantages balanced
proportion of three to one in the two
armies and rendered their victory GER
tain. Where the federals had any adj
vantage whatever, he knew in advance
that defeat was certain: at Gettysburgh,
for instance, which he considered the
greatest blunder of the confederates.
After that, he added, l went to Chica-.
manga with the assurance of our gov
eminent that if we whipped Rosecrans
we should have all the available forces
to drive him back to the Ohio or destroy
his army. The Richmond folks refused
to keep this promise, and so we sat
down there and waited til the federals
got strong enough to drive us away.
Then knew that the end was near.
Such chance could never come again.
| did not venture to ask him why he
fought on a year and half after he
knew the sacrifice was useless, but
wanted to mighty bad. We all remem-
Der how, the first two or three years of
the war, all the talk in the North was
that the Union generals did nothing
right, while the rebels managed with
wonderful ability. 1t is amusing now
to hear that the same sort of talk was
even more common on this side of the
line. The general says the confederacy
was lost by three great blunders; blum
ders that every cadet at West Point is
! taught to avoid in his first lessons. The
first was the loss of Fort Donelson,
which could have been saved, and
Grant completely broken up in thirty
hours by an advance from Bowling
Green. The second was at Gettysburgh.
The third was the failure to reinforce
and follow up the victory of Chica-
manga. After that, neither bravery
nor strategy could save the confederacy.
1t was a gone case.

Anecdotes of Grant.

have thought that few anecdotes
of General Grant, which have from time
TO time been related to me during n long
residence in Galena, might not be unin-
teresting to your readers. A friend of
mine once told me that he walked home
with General Grant at the close of the
first war meeting which was held in
Galena, and at which the general pre-
sided, and that he said to him: " am
going into this thing. l am going to
begin at the foot of the ladder. | am
acquainted with the governor of Ohio,
and am going to write to him tonight
and ask him to give me a commission.
My friend asked him why he did not
apply to Governor Yates. He replied
that he knew Ohio's governor, and
should write to him. Before his appli-
cation was answered f. b. Washburne
was at Springfield, and Governor Yates
said to him: "We have got men enough
and money enough, but we have no one
here to organize; we need a military
man here" Mr.. Washburne said; "We
have got just the very man up at Galena
that you want" ''Who is hep Soap

While fragrant, howery- fingered May
Extends her hand to welcome June,
We come, with mournful tread to-day,
To claim this ever precious boon
of offering each hallowed grave
Our loving tributes to the brave.

We marched with you through scenes of strife,
And gave our country all but life.
You marched and fought and fell and died

Died in cause more scanned and Scared
In strife with cruelty and crime
Than any veteran in the guard
of Tamerlane or Ghengis Khanl
Died in the war-worn cause of mani

Which had not lost their darker hue,
And burrows deep on many brow
Where care has driven his ploughshare through
Where yet mark of age were laid,
But for the haste which war has made.

The bleeding heart is still too sore
For bitter thoughts to journey DER,
Fen though it feel the balm of glory.
Their deeds shall shine, like jewels set
In Freedoms glittering coronet;
But how they fought, and how they fell,
And falling, died, let others tell,
Who, looking backward through the years,
Can read with eyes undmmed with tears,
And tell, with more than patriot pride,
Their children how their fathers died

record, however, was found where
wound in the groin had resulted in the
swelling of the glands of the neck.
The old medical works excluded alto
gether such cause for the disease; but
a recent work was examined, where it
was claimed that an injury of the ma
ture of Mr.. Bakers wound-the ball
remaining in the flesh four months
might cause that disease. An appeal
and brief citing the favorable med
ical authority were submitted to the
secretary of the interior, who sent u
special examiner of the pension Office
to Montpelier to take testimony. After
spending over week in procuring evil
dence, he returned it to the secretary
with his report, which resulted in Mr..
Bakers receiving pension on account
of the disease of the glands of the
neck resulting from the wound in the
groin, which is probably the only known
case in this country that sustains the
theory advanced by President Garfeld's
physicians.
