EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: In your issue
of Dec Is last there appeared an advertisement
of the Household Journal No. 241 Broadway,
New York, in which the proprietors offered as
premiums for subscribers to this magazine gold
watches to the number of 10000, asking the
people to inclose 81 each as subscription, and
the watch would be sent free. Many responded
to the call, believing that any advertisement in
The NATIONAL TRIBUNE is from honest par
ties. The premium sent out is kind of dial
plate without any watch works, placed in q
thin brass case, worth probably five cents. We
old soldiers feel sorry that you, as well as our
selves, should have been imposed upon. We
would therefore, ask you to expose the scoun-
drels through your paper, that further frauds
may not be perpetrated on the public.-H. G.
CALHOUN, Keithsburg, Iii.
We are very sorry to hear that this institu-
ton is swindle. We discovered it ourselves
some time ago, and stopped the appearance of
its advertisement in the paper. The advertise
ment came TO US through reputable firm, and
we presumed that the parties were all right
We exercise all reasonable care to prevent our
columns being made the vehicle Of swndling
concerns, but it is impossible to know in adj
vance the character of all of them.-EDIToR

1t often happens that when we have been
doctorlng for new ailment, to our surprise
some old complaint suddenly disappears, and we
are at loss to account for it. We cannot say
whether it was the medicine we had taken or
whether it was the change produced in us by
the effort nature made to cast off our disease,
and by the aid of some medicine reaching the
nerve centers and thus revitalizing the system.
The following are two very remarkable cases,
that seem almost too wonderful to be true:
The first is from Mrs. Sarah Fisher, of Fish
ertown, Indian Territory, dated January q,
1886: have completely recovered from cry
spelas and rheumatism by the use of your Com
pound Oxygen Treatment. | ttreW dlUay my
cratcheS three months ago, and now can walk
as well as any one. We have large store here,
and do great deal of business, and some days
they get so pushed that have to go in and help
The people are all surprised to see me looking
SO well, after being so low and crippled l tell
them Compound Oxygen did it for me-"
The following statement is by mother, who
writes from Plainfield, New Jersey, about her
child, who has not yet finished her growth:
" We have tried Compound Oxygen with good
results, we think in the case of our daughter For
-four gears the right limb Was shorter than The other
and nc had TO hare her gear a cork shoe. Within
two weeks past we have found the limbs at the
feett be OF the same length; have bought the
ordinary shoes, and she walks as we'll and even
better then during the latter part of her wear
ing the high shoes. Whether this is direct
result ofthe Compound Oxygen l cannot say
bat ii certainly looks to be. Her generel health
is so much improved from the autumn, when
she began the Treatment, desire to continue
1T, and trust to see even greater results. | re-
quest you, therefore, to send at your earliest
convenience second course of your Home

How MitcheIrs Division Made an Easy Captu


EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: In THE Ma
TIoSAL TRIBUNE stories by comrades of their
respective commands, ii strikes me that what
ever command each belonged to seemed to do
the hardest marching, hardest fighting and the
most duty. While we had ourselves great
deal Of hard fighting and marching, am will
ling TO c0ncede that other regiments had as
much Of the same kind of work to do as we.
Ia the Spring Of 1862 my regiment, the 37th
Ind, was in Gen. Turchin's Brigade, of Gen
MitchelFs Division which made the famous
forced march from Shelbyville, Tenn, 10
Huntsville, Ala, g miles in one day. Early
the next morning we marched into the city,
captured il without any resistance and got $50
prisoners, IL locomotive engines. 100 cars and
three cannon. This was ON the Memphis q
Charleston Railroad, which we cut at that
place, preventing reinforcements TO Johnston's
army from the east. 1t was glorious victory
without battle. Three miles north of Hunts
vile we captured 10 barrels of whisky The
boys soon filed their canteens and we robbed
the neighboring houses of all the buckets,
chuFns and cans We could find, to take away
more whisky. About the time we reached
Huntsville every soldier fancied he was COM
Banding some regiment, Brigade or perhaps a
division and in fact we were all giving orders.
During the Summer Of 1862 the 9th Ind.
was on detached duty guarding bridges and,
unfortunately for my company, Capt. CoHnette,
who was commanding it At the time, was sent
to guard Elk River bridge. As soon as he had
posted bis pickets he returned to the rest of
the company, and then, few minutes after, he
heard firing on the picket-linc. When he
found what was up, ITO arms, boysi" the
command was given, and don't FIRE until you
sec the whites Of their eyes, and then give them
hell" The rebels came on, yelling like demons,
aud were within about 80 PAGES when the order
was given to fire. The fighting was desperate
while il lasted though it was Of short duration,
and We were SO oyerpowered that we were
forced TO surrender. The rebels lost q killed
and wounded, while our loss was only five
killed and 10 wounded. Capt Connette was as
brave a man as ever liyed.-HERAM Bowling,
Co. E, 9th Ind, st. omer, Ind.

A BIG DEAL ON HAND.
Jay Gould To Sell The Western Union.
His Latest Plans as Outlined In New York.

New YORK, Aug. I7.-An evening
paper states that after careful inves-
tigation by several reporters that the
statement made by several leading
brokers that Jay Gould is figuring to
dispose of the Western Union is en-
TITLED to serious consideration and
rests on a substantial basis.
The recent settlement of the cable
war Is said to be one of the impor-
tant preliminary steps in Mr.. Gould's
grand scheme of retirement from the
Western Union. OF course, Mr.. Gould
could have protracted the cable war
indefinitely had he chosen to do so.
And he could have done so without
bearing financial loss, for at the 1215-
cent tariff the Western Union was
just about paying the running ex-
penses Of the cable lines held by the
company and was earning its hand
some dividends from its land lines.
Its rival, on the other hand, though
perhaps earning operating expenses
at the l212-cent rate, had no system
OF land lines earning asteady income.
Another singular feature of this
cable business is that the Western
Union has shown no desire recently
to swallow its cable rivals. One
prominent Western Union stock
holder says his company has no such
desire. 1t prefers he declares, to
have the friendly rivalry of the Pos
tai Telegraph company and the Com
mercial Gable company.
Mr.. Gould's plan now is, so a prom
inent telegraph stockholder declares,
to transfer his control of Western
Union to the great syndicate that Las
been SO successful in managing cor
porate affairs and which alone, per-
haps, has the financial resources nee
essary to carry out the transaction.
In this case the the syndicate will be
composed of Drexel, Morgan & Co.,
Brown Brothers & Co., Kidder, Pea
body & Co., and their English con-
nections, together with the Wander
builts, who formerly held the con
trolling interest in the Western
Union and transferred the same to
Gould.
The Vanderbilts have had long
ing to regain control of the property,
it is said, for several years, and they
are especially eager to do so now, for
they have large surplus capital, for
which they seek suitable investments.
John Mackey, the California mill
ionaire and president and principal
owner of the Commercial Cable Line,
also is said to be in the proposed
syndicate. Mr.. Mackey's advent in
Western Union would be in the in
terest of harmony. With Mackey in
the pool rates of cable and telegraph
business could be controlled as abso-
lutely as the price of oil is controlled
by the Standard monopoly. In
other words, it would be a gigantic
trust" in telegraph matters. Other
capitalists of note also are mentioned
as possible members of the proposed
huge syndicate.
