illustrated pamphlet, embracing views

which that city is located. The pam

and it cannot be denied that her mag
niticent structures and enchanting sur
roundings impart q very favorable
Impression Of the place, and after 4
careful review of the attractive pam.
phlet, we are free to confess, that if we
lived within a reasonable distance of
that place, we would certainly labor in
its interest, but taking into considera-
ton its remote location from the richest.
and most promising mining region on
the American continent, the Black
Hills, which is destined to become the
most populous and productive portion
Of the new state, We can but imbibe the
conclusion, in COMMON With a very
large majority ofthe people of the Black
Hills country, that WATERFOWL, viewed
from a Black Hills standpoint, is un
favorably located for the capitol, and
that Pierre, by eason Of her location
upon the only navigable river, in the
exact geographical center of the state,
offers advantages in this direction
which no ptbnr agpi rn ~ oor oo..;t..4
ly claim. 1t is possible that a count of
the votes may determine that Water
town has received a very handsome
vote, but it is by no means probable
that any considerable number of such
votes will be east in the Black Hills,
where we deem it entirely safe to con-
clude that fully three fourths Of the en-
tire vote will be wisely cast for Pierre.

 Burnside had been transferred to Tcnnes- see and General Hooker was in command of tho Army of tft, Potomac. Leaving SedR- wick to carry the intrenchments at freder- icksburg, he pushed forward the main army, hundred thousand strong, ncress tho Rappahennoc< to meet Lee at Chancel- lors1ine, where the scouts had brought wos1 he was lying with sixty thousand mon. All night long Harry Winthrop had been In tho saddlo on a accommodating expedition, and at dawn had flung hinseif to rest beside tho camp dre.

 "I do, indeed do, my brave follow, but my dispatches-'
 Are already in the hands of General Burnside," said tall, weather beaten offi- cor, who entered the tent at this moment, before whom the kind hearted soldiers with drew with respectful obeissnce.
 So Harry slept:
 In the morning when he awoke the eun was well on the horizon. The tent was empty. Beside his cot lay an infantryman' 's uniform, which some kind hand had put there to replace his own bedraggled clothes, which had doubtless been taken some where to dry, and on a box 6 can of cold tea and some bread and meat. He ate and drank, dressed and rose refreshed.
 A beautiful panorama met his view as he stepped from the tent into the open. Before him lay the River Rappahannosk, and on a hill beyond tho town of Fredericksburg. de saw the dense masses of the Union

He had hardly reached the spot than General Burn side snd his staff pressed by him. Taking the smallest detail in at & glance, he turned
 to Harry and said in sharp, sevcro tones: "You, sirI Why are " GU not with your
 regiment! Forward, arstl,e double quickn' The die was cast Harry fought that day at Fredericksburg.
 Never ill the history of war was more ! noble devotion nor more pitiablc carnage seen. Again and again the Union troops hurled themselves agalnst that terrible
 stone wall, and again and again like the forkcd lightning of thunder-cloud, the
 cannons bolched their fury on them. t1till
 they fought aud fcll and with wild cheers Meagher's unt,inching l1ish,ncn charged over the dead bodies in their ranks with
 mad frenzy struggling for victory; but from behind that fatal wall clcamad sheets | of flame and crashed showers c! bullets, till nature i'll merry flung tho black lal of

 he sprAng from his seat and laid bis hand on Harry's collar.
 Harry flung him aside, and turned to face the mans friends who had leaped to his as- slstance. Quick as he was, he could not avoid blow which cut gash In his lip, but he returned tho insult with interest, as his stunned assailant who lay at his feet knew to his cost.
 At that moment the door was broken down. and the officer of the day, followed by corporal's guard, burst into the room. |" You arc all under arrest, gentlemen. To your qt,a!tcrs.'
 So 1t camc to pass that Harry Winthrop suffered the overwhelming disgrace of court martial. It is true that ho was honor- ably acquitted, while Chattcrton was dis missed tho service, but question whether Harry, with his high notions of honor, did not suffer the most; for loss of sclf-esteem to high-spiritcd young man like him meant bigger punishment than the other endured
 Chattcrtons rage against him was fu- l rious; and, before he left the camp, he | swore to be avenged 1en him aye. though he had to swing for it.
 Too well he kept his word. Meanwhile Gordon Grey was fuH of re- ! morse and penitenco. It is true that he had recovered his notes, but at what a costt The peace of mind of his best friend.

EVIDENCES are multiplying every day
of the Importance of the new through
line. Mr.. Truman lately sent dispatch
which he received from the general man
ager of the f. & p. NJ. to Mr.. Cooper, ID
which an interview was asked to discuss
matters of great Importance to the city
The Detroit Free Press makes mention of
the line through Manitowoc and states
it is the shortest line from Minneapolis
to New York. It gives the length of
each line as follows: The $500" l, 436
miles to New York. The line by way of
Milwaukee and Pere Marquette 1872
miles; the line by way of Chicago 1912
miles; the line by way of Man1towoc ,2O6
miles, 1t will thus be seen that the pro-
posed line cuts off &C miles of the shortest
present line to New York from Mime
apolis.
