ANNEXATION OF CANADA.
Tho Disastrous Attempt to Accom-
plish It by FOrce-A Famous
Retreat.

The present agitation concerning
the relations betw cen Canada and the
United States recalls the time when
the annexation of that country was
proposed to be brought about by force
OF arms. The project was entrusted
to the brave General Montgomery,
assisted by the famous patriots, Col
onels Ethan Allen and Seth Warner.
While engaged in this invasion Ethan
Allen was taken prisoner by the Brit
ish and sent to England, where he
experienced very harsh treatment.
1t was Colonel Warner,,who twice
conducted his men safely home,
though the march was constantly
surrounded b. dangers. Once Mont
gomery sent them home because their
time was out, and though they were
willing to continue in service, they
were without sufficient clothing, and
none could be had in that country.
Colonel Warner had hardly arrived
home before he heard that Mont
gomery had been killed, and the
cause, as well as the lives of the men,
were put in great jeopardy. He col
lected his men again and at once
started for Canada to assist his
countrymen in their extremity. But
his efforts were of no avail, and it
was soon found necessary to taie up
the line of retreat.
1t was the dead Of winter, and
only necessity sanctioned moving the
troops. The terror Of pursuit and the
Iigor Of the season furnished sufficient
cause TO, alarm and haste. Colonel
Warner remained with the rear Of
the army, and aided them in many
ways most effectually ~ he was .
man we'll posted in caring for tho
sick and this knowledge now came
into excellent use.
He must keep the army in melton,
not . day must b lost, and yet he
was without any chest Of medicines.
But he understood the medicinal use
Of roots and herbs, and Of proper care
1t critical times, and with these allies.
he made IN e6eetusl light against dis
ease among his men.
When Ticonderoge vas reached
and the roll called, thanks to Seth
Warner but few vacancies in the ranks
Col. Warner saved the lives of hum
dreds of men in this way, and he did
. noble work, but it remained for
his namesake, H. II. Warner, head

Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1888-03-13

The Virginia Enterprise is au-
thority for the statement that ten
years ago a band of gypsies were
the recipients of some slight or in
dignity at Phoebe, and an old bel
dame in the company cast a curse
on the city, saying it would wither
and decay for ten years before it
would be prosperous again. The
once prosperous camp began to feel
the effects of the blight, and has
been whitening and decaying these
ten years. This curse was hurled
at the town in 1878, and the Pioch-
er's claim that now there is every
prospect of the old prestige of the
town coming back.
In connection it may be as we'll
to refer to two prophesies made rel
alive to Carson.
Mrs. Bowers twelve years ago
said that there would be . big mine
discovered in the North Carson hill,
and another fortune teller claimed
that Carson would To visited By An
earthquake, and that would be the

An ExraNGUIsnED COMET.

The extraordinary result of Sat
urday's battle between Sullivan and
Mitchell at Apremont, France, il
the extinguishment OF Sullivan as q
sporting comet. Ever since his ter
Yible work on the countenance and
ribs of Patrick Ryan at New Or
leans he has ranked as the wonder
of the ring, and been probably tine
most notorious man in tie world.
No less than a million people have
seen him spar in fighting costume,
and newspaper advertising has risen
him to the gilded pinnacle OF fame
and money making.
After the showing made against
the clever Englishman on Saturday
it is doubtful il he can ever recover
his lost prestige as pugilist OF the
first class. After battle of thirty
nine rounds his own hackers were
glad to suggest draw, and for the
first time in his life he Left the
ground without having whipped his
man.
1t was clear that from the start
he was out-generaled by Mitchell
and his English hackers, who have
reduced the science of match max
ing to 3 nicely. Sullivan, with a
deplorable over-confidence in his
immense strength and staying quail
ties, (nevsr before tested) conceded
everything.
The choice of London rules over
Queensbury was = decided advan-
tage to the Britisher, as was also
The soft condition Of the soil. The
London rules enabled Mitchell to
10 down without An exchange, and
when knocked OF his feet during
tho mill the ground he fell on was q
kindly formation for such an emer-
gency.
Immense hitting qualities, which
Sullivan possesses moro than any
ether pugilist, 60 tor nothing when
The head aimed at suddenly con-
sludes to put itself in some other
place before the blow gets there.
Sullivan beat the empty air q good
leal in vain endeavor to reach his
nimble antagonist, and the twenty
our instead of the sixteen-foot ring
yave the Britisher a wide mar In
'or his extraordinary activity.
With all these things omitted,
however, it is folly to depreciate the
skill, courage and staying qualities
# Mitchell, who for three hours
aced a man supposed to be the
,reatest exponent of his brutal art
hat ever lived, and while saving
lis own bones administered to Sulli-
AN the severest punishment he ever
eceived.
Sullivan Is alone to blame for his
DOWNFALL. He was blessed with the
'hysique of a Roman gladiator, and
Or the past five years Slapped his
normous powers with continued
issipation. Whiskey was the
God reliable ally that assisted
iitchell all through the fight. The
mp OF the Bottle has been fighting
ohm Sullivan for years, dancing
bout him, putting his head in
hancery and hitting him under the
cit, yet there has been no friend
