during the war, and that ne is one of the few
men whom he has met of whom it could be said
that he is absolutely destitute of the element Of
physical fear. he gives moss striking exem-

Generals bravery which he himself witnessed.
Col. Richie, during the latter part OF the war,
was engaged in the transportation of army sup

steamers on the Ohio river. 1t was very COM
mon In those days for guerrllas to lie in wait in
convenient smbuscades along the river for the
purpose of killing what people they could on the
boats and at various times made attempts to
capture and destroy his vessels. One day he
had Gen. Harrison for passenger;
he had also n with him faI.-., .sg:

also few ladies among the passengers. They

the dining room and in a moment all was con-

rooms and lay down behind the doubled-up
mattresses for protection. A lady seated near
the captain, not realizing the danger, left the
cabin to see what kind OF men were shooting at
the vessel. Colonel Richie went out after her;

great enthusiasm and vigor at the people on the
shore; he stood there in this storm OF bullets
and banged away until the boat was out OF
range. A greater piece OF recklessness he never
saw and what impressed him was the perfect
Inconsistencies of General Harrison that he
had done anything out OF the usual.

WAsETNGToy. Sept. 1.-THE House resumed
consideration Of the sundry civil appropriation
bill, the pending amendment being that relative
to the reclamation of the arid regions
Mr.. Blount, of Georgia. made an earnest ap-
peal for economy in the public expenditures, de-
claring that waste of public money and re-
duction of taxation were utterly inconsistent.
Mr.. Cannon, of Illinois, advocated the amend
ment, and reminded his friend from Georgia
mr.. BlouDtl that the people of the country were
not afraid of the expenditure of money for great
national objects, when the expenditure was hon.
estly and Justly made. They we're not afraid of
taxation to raise the money for such expendi-
ture. There was broad line OF demarcstou
between the expenditure of money rs proposed
by the amendment, and the expenditures which
the present Congress had made. unwisely and
extravsgantly, in the increase of salaries of of
fcisls.
Mr.. Holman, Of Indiana, thought that the
House should be in possession of more definite
facts in relation to the subject before il en-
bsrked upon an enterprise which would involve
the government in such vast expenditure of
money.
Mr.. Weaver. Of Iowa, urged the necessity Of
reservine the portions OF the arid lands which
were suitable for reservoir purposes.
