AS JUDGE THURMAN ROSE
to speak the applause was enthusiastic
Judge Thurman said:

Judge Thurman said:
Mr. Chairman-To say that am pro
foundry grateful to my friends from
made me to day and for these
marks OF esteem and affection,
that you have displayed, is but poorly
to express what l feel in my heart.
[ cannot begin the few remarks l
shall make without abiding to that
grand man whose name one OF your
clubs besrs-Thomas A. Hendricks.
For many years when he was an i'm
portant figure in politics and took
marked part l knew him intimately,
and when four years ago | had the
honor and privilege of speaking with
him again and again in your State
and also in Ohio, never heard
him make speech that did not in
crease my admiration for the power of
his intellect, patriotism and courage.
Now my frieL is, you Indiana people
saved the Democratic cause four years
ago. Your vote was necessary to the
election of Cleveland and Hendricks,
and you gave it by a good round
majority, and now it is in your
power once more to save the
Democratic party by voting for
Cleveland again. 1 am quite
sure that there is not
Democrat within the sound of my
voice, who regrets that he voted for
Grover Cleveland in 1884. | never met
Democrat that did so. It may be
that there is a straggler here and there;
but think you can
COUNT THEM ON YOUR FINGERS
on one hand, and for one of such, Ten
W no have come to US from the Republic
anparty. L can hardly think how man
who voted for Grover Cleveland in 1884
face and say II won't vote for him
again." l do say that there is much
that ought to be reformed in our laws
and in our system, but it is not the
fault of Grover Cleveland that reforms
have not been made. he has urged
them; he has pleaded with Congress;
he has said to the people again and
again that such and such things
ought not to be and that others
ought to be, and no sensible man
can say that his recommendations nave
not been made by wisdom, knowledge
and patriotism and know that man.
with whom [ am acquainted veil. l
say to you my young friends and all
my 1FlenCS, young ana OLD, ne IS one OF
the most sensible level-hesded honest
men L ever knew. He is now before
you as a candidate and 1 firmly be-
Iieve he will be elected. l firmly be-
lieYe that the American people
have TOO much sense. too much
appreciation of the honor and cour-
age and intelligence that he has
exhibited in the Presidential chair.
When l come to your state will talk
to you about the tariff or fisheries. or
anything else that you want me to talk
ABOUT. You wont find me avoiding
any question whatever, that is fairly
proposed. God knows that l would
rather be at home with my dear old
wife than in any Office in the
world, but have been chosen
by the Democratic party to help fight
this campaign, and mean to do it TO
the best of my ability. At the conclu-
sion of the speech Thurman took po-
sition in the front part Of the platform
ard was personally presented to each
OF the visitors. / he balance of the day
was spent looking around the city. At

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: 1t has only
been during the last year that have come to
regard THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE as house
hold necessity. We have a thriving young
G.A.R Post here Geo. w. Tyler Post, No. 81,
Department of Missouri, numbering 40 mem
bers. / have been highly entertained by the
numerous accounts of the capture of Spanish
Fort and Blakely, and although l have a very
firm opinion that | was there personally with
the 9th Iowa, if I believe all the accounts
given that is about the only thing 1 am sure Of
Serg't Jackson, of Allamakee County, Iowa,
went for rebel flag after we cleared the works
at Blakely, and thinks he would have got it,
only for running against bullet thatstruck him
in the neck bone from the effects of which he
never fully recovered. l wish some of the 9th
boys would try to tell how many of them fell
over that wire stretched in front of the rebel
breastwOrks. l also wish Dyer Hall, Drum
Major, 9th Iowa, would tell how big that
splinter was that got knocked out of pine
tree by a rebel she'll that brushed his hat off
in camp few days before the assault, and if he
remembers the sorry plight of some of the boys
who were brushed into sink by the tree that
was cut down by the shot.
will say, in conclusion, that I am just
enough of politician to find all the political
reading l care for in THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE.

~ Iaid the Pnnfnnnsl


EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: / have been
very much interested in reading the different
articles published in The NATIONAL TRIBUNE.
In regard to who laid the pOntoon bridge in
front OF Fredericksburg, Va. on that ill-fated
morning Dec. II, 1862, allow me to say that
COmrade Willie is coTrectin his statement as to
the 50th n. Y. Eng. laying said bridge, but
think he is too severe in his criticisms of the
Regular Engineer boys. On two occasions
worked side by side with some of the Regular
boys laying bridges, the last one being in June,
1868, at NOlan's Ferry, on the Potomac, during
a very dark night, and / believe it was the last
time we were together during the war. In the
little acquaintance formed with the Regulars.
l found some as good, whole-souled boys as l
ever met, and they always performed every
duty faithfully.
Comrades Yogi and Evans of the Regulars,
in their articles not only coucede to the 50th
n. Y. Eng. the honor Of laying the bridge in
question. but say that the 18th and 50th n. Y.
were as good regiments as any in the service.
Now /. for one, feel very much fattered at
such praise being accorded to the 18th and 50th
\. y. coming as il does from the Regular
source. Thanks, comrades for your cOmpli-
ment; and from what ! know of your battalion
during my Ehree years service in the old 50th
\. Y. Engs., / think / can return you n like
compliment without fear of contradiction as to
your faithful service. Yes, comrades it was
the 50th n. Y. Eng. that laid the bridge in
front Of the city Dec II, 1862, and they did it
under a heavy fire. Our loss in killed and
wounded during that memorable day stands as
a record to-day for their faithful service to
their country on that Occasion.-U. d. WooD,

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: Noticing the
article in TIE NATIONAL TRIBUNE of Oct. %
from Comrade Geo. f. Peaks, of Co B, 9th Ne.
regarding the charge Of Pratt's Light Brigade.
Of the Sixth Corps, he claims that the 9th Me.
and two companies Of the 9th Wis charged and
captured Aarye's flights, and that the members
Of Co. K, 9th Me, were the first to scale the
works. / would like TO ask Comrade Peaks
what he did with the 3lst n. Y, Pratt's old
regiment2 l belonged TO the 31st and if / am
not mistaken our regiment captured six pieces
Of the Washington Artillery, and 1 claim the
honor of planting the colors of the regiment on
the fort where we made the charge, and | also
claim the honor Of capturing the Colonel of the
Washington Artillery. Therefore, think this
entities the 3lst n. Y. TO the honor of taking
part in the racket The 9Th Me- and 5th Wis,
were as good regiments as any in.the army, but
there was as good fighting material as they
were. lclaim this honor for all my regiment that
were in this charge. The Colonel of the Wash
ington Artillery surrendered his saber and re-
volver to me personally. and he was brave
man, for he stayed with his guns after his men
had left him.-JosEPH w. SWEENEY, Co, A.

Roanoke Island.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: Since my first
article about Roanoke Island l have received a
letter from Comrade Franklin C. Plant, North
Bend, Neb., stating that when Serg't Howard,
Co. a, 5lst N. Y, was shot and fell with the
colors while charging the battery, he (Plant)
caught the flag and carried it on to victory. He
planted the 51st N. Y flag upon the rebel bat
terry. He also stated that he was the third man
inside of the battery, and that the 21st Mass.
had just planted their flag He says also that
his remembrance of Hawkinss Zouaves is lust
as / stated it to your readers. l have also
received letter from Comrade j. s. Roster,
Lyons Falls, N. Y, thanking me for my de-
Tense of the 51st N. Y. aud the 2lst Mass. He
says he was in the color company of his regi-
ment, and that my statements were correct and
just as he remembered them.
Tell Comrade Martin Smith, Co E, Hawkins
Zouaves, that his regiment was fine lot OF
men, and always did their duty; that we
always loved them, and were the best of friends
during the war. But after all of this we say
that Hawkins's Zouaves never did charge or
take the battery at Roanoke Island--E. w.

BATTLE OF PIEDMONT.
Gen. Hunters Goodness Under Fire.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: In THE Ma
TIoNAL TRIBUNE of the 8th inst, Comrade
David ii. Smith, Co. ID, goth Pa. Cav, requests
an account of the battle at Piedmont June 5,
1864. The writer was an Orderly for Gen. David
II. Hunter on that occasion, and kept a full
account of the battle in his diary, which was
taken from him at Lexington Va, having been
captured after our retreat from Lynchburg 1t
was unqueStionably one of the most successful
little battles of the war, and the charge re-
ferred to by Comrade Smith was brilliant and
effective.
In a letter written home by the writer after
the battle there is q brief mention of il, in
which it is stated that our losses were about
500 men III all, while the loss of the enemy was
about 800 killed and wounded and nearly 1000
prisoners, stragglers and deserters, of whom it
is believed large number were drowned, our
forces having forced a part of the enemy into
the river. They lost one General killed, and a
number of Colonels, Majors, etc, captured and
killed.
Gen. Hunters remarkable GOODNESS was ex-
hibited here to a degree that elected the ad-
miration Of all his men. He and staff and
Orderlies were on knoll near where the
charge was made, and drew the fire of the rebel
batteries, shells bursting about US in every
direction, but the General showed no more
concern than if on dress parade.
After the battle we went directly to Staun-
ton, our party being the first to enter the city.
While in the city the writer helped to parole
the rebel wounded Of whom there were nearly
500. From here, after being Joined by the
forces from other points in West Virginia we
made the advance on Lynchburg 1t is not
claimed that these figures of losses are abso-
lutely correct, except the number paroled,
which was matter of record by names while
the others were from the incomplete reports
made after the fight.
1t is hoped that some cOmrade may be able
to give correct and complete account of this
brilliant fight, with the regiments engaged
losses, etc.-FRANK S. READER, Co. /, 9Th

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: I write to
correct Capt A. F. Vogelbach, of the 9th Pa,
concerning the First and Second Brigades, Sec
ond Division, Eleventh Corps, at Chancellors-
vile, May, 1863 Brig.Gen Francis c. Barlow
commanded the Second Brigade of the Sec
ond Division, Eleventh Corps, composed of the
I'D Ohio, 33d Mass, 134th n Y. and 136th N .
The First Brigade, same division, was command
ed by Col Bushbeck, and was composed of the
9th and I'D Pa, 10th and 154th n. Y, and
after returning from Charlottesville while III
camp near Stafford Courthouse, on account of
a disagreement between Gen. Barlow and Col.
Costar, the 134th II. Y, was transferred to the
First Brigade, the 10th n. Y. taking their
place in Barlow's (Second) Brigade. Soon after
the change Bushbeck got leave of absence, and
Col. Costar of the 134th N. Y, assumed COM
mand, and at Gettysburg led the 15ith N. Y,
9th Pa and 134th n. Y, on the field under a
heavy fire. leaving the 73d Pa. in reserve with
the Second Brigade, Col. Smith, of the I'D Ohio,
commanding-Gen Barlow having been given
the command of the First Division, and being
wounded before we arrived on the field. The
three regiments that Col. Costar led into battle
suffered severely, rebel brigade striking the
134th n. Y. on the right flank, compelling them
to fall back with loss Of 40 killed, $50 wound
ed and 10 taken prisoners-one Color-S Sergeant,
