Gen. Gordon at Gettysburg.
From the Philadelphia Press.


Gen. j. B. Gordon, of Georgia, was
another Confederate who Travelled far and
wide over the battle field to-day. His wife
was with him in the carriage during the
ride, and Col. Frank A. Burr accompanied
them. Mrs. Gordon is one of the southern
wives of soldiers who shared no little part
of their husbands hardships She was with
Gen. Gordon through the greater part of
four years of campaigning, sharing every
cause. To-day she is a tall, slender
woman, with features of strong and refined
lines. Her dark hair has but few lines of
gray. When a correspondent spoke to her
to-day of the magnificent speech which
Gen Gordon made at yesterdays reunion
of the blue and the gray, she said: "For a
week before the general started on his
Journey here | kept saying to him: You
have speech to make at Gettysburg, why
do you not make some preparationsP He
would say: L haven't time now He wrote
that speech on the train coming here, and
copied it for him." Mrs. Gordon is, by the
way, idolized by thousands of southern
soldiers.
Gen. Gordon came toward Gettysburg
twenty-five years ago on the road from
York, and struck the right flank OF the
Eleventh corps during the first day Of the
battle. He was fresh from his raid toward
Jne ouSquehdhhu 'oii0y, "N ~ VOC ,i'
arrival which did much To overwhelm the
union forces and drive them back through
Gettysburg and to the positions held during
the second and third days. Over the scene
of his march and of his arrival, Gen. Cor
don rode to-day and every foot Of ground
bore harvest of "reminiscences. Gen. Gordon
also visited the scene of the second days as
sault on Culp's hill. A union officer who
visited to-day that same scene of the first
DAYS fight was Gen Barlow, then of the
Eleventh corps, who was shot down by
Gordon's fire and left for dead upon the
field. Gordon's troops found him there,
and Gordon himself saw that the union
general received all the care and attention
due a gallant combatant. 1t is another
coincidence that Gen. Barlow led the charge
ordered by Hancock at SpottsylvanIa,
which Gordon finally stayed, and so saved
the confederate army.

Darinq Pay Car Robbery.

TOLEDO, o., Sept. 2l.-A special
to the Bee from Buffalo, n. Y,
says: Last evening one of the most
daring robberies ever known was
committed here just outside OF the
Lake Shore depot. The pay car OF
the road came in during the eve
ming and after being placed on a
side track the clerks went to sleep
for the night. Sometime thereafter
some cracksmen, who must have
learned of the amount Of money in
the car, got under it, bored a hole
in the floor and administered ether
10 the clerks. They then gained
admission, blew the safe open and
got $4,000. An effort was made
to keep the matter from the public
bur it leaked out this evening"
There is no clue as yet to the rob
bcrs.
