How Private Raymond Escaped.

heard a story, the other day, about
the late Delegate Raymond of Dakota,
who died early in the year, which is
quite romantic. He was the last man
to see General Mcpherson alive at the
battle of Atlanta. He was just in the
act of delivering a message to the gen.
eral when party of confederate horse
men came upon them, and Mcpherson
was shot down and Raymond was taken
prisoner and sent to Andersonville.
After he had been there year or so
there was an exchange of prisoners,
and the whole body of men in prison
were assembled in line to hear read the
list of those who were to be exchanged.
Those whose names were read were or
dered to answer " Here" and step for
ward. When the officer in charge was
going over the roster he called out the
name of one who had died the night
before. Raymond had the presence of
mind to answer " Here" in the place
of the dead man, and stepped forward
and although his deception was imme-
diately discovered by his fellow-prison-
ers they were all too generous to give
him away. He was exchanged under
the name of his dead comrade, returned
North and re-entered the army Wash

Questions Answered.

Mp. LOWER CABor.-All soldiers wild
ows who are now, or may hereafter be, pen
stoned will receive So a month instead of
as. The clause in the bill prohibiting wild
ows who married soldiers after the passage
of the bill from the benefits of the act was
stricken out.
F. NJ. p, GRoToN.-Pension money in this
state is subject to taxation, the same as other
money or personal property. If the pension
had not been received on the LIST day of
April it ought not to go into the grand list
this year. Pensions not granted and paid
are not subject to taxation.
SOLDIER, WAITsFIELD.-Captain Writ
was executed in Washington on the 10th of
November, 1865, for his cruel treatment of
Union prisoners at Andersonville, Georgia.
Senator Collamer of Vermont died on the
same day, aged about seventy-four. If we
are not mistaken, the Vermont Legislature
adjourned on the morning of that day and
the governor appointed Senator Collamer's
successor.
r. o., MoRETowN.-You are not entitled
to pension as a dependent father unless
you can show that your son, the soldier,
died of some disease contracted in the serv-
ice of the United States. 1t is not enough
to show that he came from the army in poor
health and went away and has not been
heard from for the last fifteen years. The
law would presume the soldier dead, but
the cause of death would have to be shown.
G. W. S., NEwBURY.-In case where the
mother and alleged widow of a soldier con-
test for pension, and four Investigations by
special agents fail to reach a satisfactory
result, it was held that the government
would incur no further expense, but the
burden of proof rests upon the parties in in
terest to file evidence to determine the
question of title. 1t is perfectly proper for
you to file testimony in your claim for a
pension after it has been investigated by a
special examiner and rejected.

German Puffs.

A pint of milk, yolks of six eggs, five
table-spoonfuls of sifted flour, table
spoonful of melted butter, one pint of
milk, half tea-spoonful of salt. Beat
the yolks very light, add the milk and
pour part of this mixture on to the
flour; beat hard, add the remainder of
the eggs and milk, the salt and butter;
beat again and half fill buttered tin gem
or muffin-pans. They will bake in
twenty minutes in quick oven. Serve
at once. The sauce which is usually
eaten with them is made of the whites
of the six eggs beaten to stiff froth,
cupful of powdered sugar and the juice
of lemon. For our own palate we
prefer sauce made of pint of boiling
water, two tea-spoonfuls of butter, two
thirds of cup of sugar, and thickened
with dessert-spoonful of corn-starch.

Hannah's Hulled Corn.

Put the corn of about eight good ears
into kettle of water, after all the loose
bran is blown out, and then put into it
little sack of wood ashes, not over a
quart, well tied up. Let it boil until
the hulls begin to loosen, not stirring
at all, but taking the kettle by the bail
and twirling it this way and that once
in awhile, to prevent settling. When
ready to remove from the fire pour it
into tub of water and swash it about
and drain time or two, then wash and
swash and stir the corn in plenty of
water with clean new broom until it
is free from hulls. Let it remain out
doors in the tub over night to freeze,
which is almost like cooking, and then
boil until done the next day, or make
it in two messes and boil a part of it.
1t should cook slowly on the back part
of the stove, never stirring, lest settle
and adhere to the kettle. A few twirls
by the bail will prevent this.

Stray Shots.

THERE are over 200 soldiers in the United
States receiving pensions of 81 month.
WILLIAM BLANCHARD of Company d, Sixth
Vermont Regiment has been granted pen
sion by special act of congress.
OLIVER BERo, who was recently granted a
pension with arrears, has opened store in
Braintree and become business man.
ALBERT WILEY, who was recently
granted pension with arrears, has bought
and paid for a farm in Moretown, and for
the first time has home of his own.
RUSSELL LAWRENCE, a pensioner on ac-
count of service in the war of 1872, who has
resided alternately for few years past in
Montpelier and Burlington, died in the last
named place last month, aged ninety-three.
GENERAL WILLIAM WELLS of Burlington
received more promotions-from private
to brevet major-general-tha any other
Vermont soldier in the civil war. AS dash
ing cavalry officer he ranked next to Gen
eral Custer.
Mrs. ALvIRA j. DARLING, who was re-
Gently granted pension and over $4,000
arrears, has hired house in Roxbury,
where she and her aged husband, after a
long struggle with poverty have comfort
able home. She says the pension has made
earth heaven for them.
A WIDOW residing in Ohio who gave eight
sons in defence CT her country, three of
whom died in the service, recently sent to
the pension bureau an application for three
pensions, under the impression that she
was entitled to that number. Unfortunately,
however, under the law but one pension in
any case can be granted to one individual.
CONGRESSMAN CIRCUIT introduced bills in
the house, last week, granting a pension
to Lucetta Corse and increasing the pen
sion of Warren f. Wood. On motion of Mr.
Circuit, the house passed the bill increasing
the pension of Thomas j. Slayton from 81
to S15 a month. The committee recon-
mended striking out $50 and inserting S15 a
month, and the house amended the bill ac-
cordingly.
R. V. KING, Esq, special examiner Of
the pension office, has been transferred from
New Jersey to st. Johnsbury, Vt. For a
year and a half-since Alonzo Weeks re
tired from the service-James E. Curran
Esq, of Montpelier has had charge of the
work in the st. Johnsbury district. Mr.
Curran's work hereafter will be confined tS
Washington and Orange counties, his ole
field. Mr.. King has been in the service fol
over four years and has the reputation Of
being an able and fair examiner.

What One Woman Did for the
Boys i'm Blue.

The following extracts from soldiers
book, "The Boys in Blue" give an
imperfect account of the work of one
of the most heroic, efficient and self
denying characters which the war of
the Union brought forth:
When hospitals were rank with
disease and death, foul with fostering
and unwashed wounds and unclean gar
ments, inexperienced surgeons stood
aghast, and felt almost powerless to
cleanse and purify; while arrogant,
negligent and merciless men fell back
on army routine and technicalities, and
said that soldiers, when they entered
the army, must expect to die, and re-
covery from amputations must be the
rare exception. The prairie-plow and
the thunderstorm were needed, and
they came in the person of Mrs. Bicker-
dyke. A pythoness, if her precious
boys, as she called them, were assaulted,
she was gentle and tender as loving
mother to every sick and wounded SOL
der. Woe be to the man, no matter
what his rank, who trampled on the
rights of the boys in blue.
" Her huge organized laundries saved
hundreds of thousands of dollars to the
government and to the sanitary COM
mission by washing what would other
wise have been destroyed, to say moth
ing of the health and comfort they be-
slowed upon the sick. The surgeons
admitted that she had no rival in eX-
temporizing, organizing and running
hospitals. The chief military men were
her firm friends, and supplied her with
facilities to carry on her work-teams
detailed soldiers and railroad trans.
portation.
" AT the commencement of the wal
Mrs. Bickerdyke was widow, with two
young sons, residing in Galesburg, III
DR.. Woodruff, surgeon of the Twenty
second Regiment, Illinois Volunteers
was from the same place, and wrote
from below to his friends of the suffer
ings of the army. The letter was reaC
in church, and Mrs. Bickerdyke heart
it. Being a famous nurse and house
keeper, with a tender, patriotic heart
she felt called upon to go. Her friends
and neighbors agreed with her, ant
placed at her disposal $500 worth o.
sanitary stores to take to the hospitals
She took charge of the nursing il
the amputation ward in the brick hos
pital at Cairo, and astonished all by he
skill and endurance. The men, strang,
to say, were made comfortable. Afte

the wounded men lay in the cold ant

well worked together; one cup milk,

which to purify the blood, to restore the lost
appetite, and to build up the entire system as the

iousness, dyspepsia, headache, kidney and liver
complaints, catarrh and all affections caused or
promoted by low state of the system or impure
blood. Don't put it off but take Hoods Sarsa-

General Sheridan was once halted by
G.. M. Woodward of Wisconsin, when
the latter was high private" in the
army of the Potomac and on picket
duty. A man on horseback came along,
and he greeted him with the proper
salutation, "Who goes there?" "a
FRIEND" was the reply. " Advance,
friend, and give the countersign!" said
the young private. 81 am General
Sheridan" said the horseman. Wood
ward gave him to understand that he
didn't care if he was General Sheridan,
and he wanted the countersign; and he
brought his bayonet in close proximity
to the generals person and demanded
the proper answer. Sheridan smiled,
gave it to him, and, as he rode away,
turned to remark: Young man, there's
a regiment of infantry coming just be-
hind me. Don't modest 'em. n-ET.
