Lieutenant Governor Robertson's Lecture,
From the Wilderness to SpottsylEania.s

Lieutenant-governor Robertson, with an ad-
dress upon the subject, From the Wilderness
to Spottsylvania," was the attraction offered ct

school children holding lecture course tickets.
The address of great interest. Colonel
Robertson showed either that his memory was
exceptionally good. that he had made memo

OF the First Brigade of the First
Division of the old Indiana corps Thia
was the division which never lost gun % a
coor-sonething that could be said of other
in the army. Before describing the battle of
the Wilderness and the march upon Spoitsyl-
vania Colonel Robertson referred at length to
the camp life of the soldiers in winter-how irk-
some time grew upon their hands and how all
kinds of games were played until they ceased to
amuse. The division to which he belonged
ranged q grand bail the evening of Washing

from all parts of the country as were the Vice.

This. however, was only the period of relaxa-

with ammunition. provisions, ETC.. and on the
march ''for Richmond or the grave" Life
the march was then wildly portrayed. after
which the great battle of the Wilderness
described in many interesting details. Colonel

the speaker An oak tree two feet In diameter
was down by bullets, and the stump was to-

Colonel Robertsons closing remark was "As

The District Attorney Will Bring the Other
Conspiracy Defendants to Trial in April.

For two weeks past.au unusually strong pres
sure has been brought to bear upon District.
attorney Sellers TO dismiss the tally sheet cases
against the remaining defendants. and many
leading Democrats are said to have exerted
their influence TO this end. It is claimed that
statement was submitted, showing that the trials
have already cost the defendants $3.50, and OF
this sum County Clerk Sullivan alone
had contributed more than $4,000
and that as the object for which
the frauds were committed was not accom-
pished, this extraordinary expense was Of itself
sufficient punishment to atone for the wrong
contemplated in changing the tally sheets.
Sellers Is said to have hestated mainIy because
he has been charged with being in league with
Republicans TO convict Coy only. and the dsm1s-
sal Of the remaining would seem TO justify
this assertion. He has therefore practically de-
trrmined to bring all of the defend
ants to trial early in Apral. He IS
anxious 20 have the trials over before the
as far possible from any influence winch po
itica strife might exercise. either in favor to
the nrejudiee of the defendants.
Warrants will be issued to-day for the arrest
