 Whep he established his headquarters in the field with the Army of the Potomac, the Northern people were confident Lee would DC overpowered, Richmond captured and the war speedily ended. But the bloody battles of the Wilderness, Spotsyl- vania and Cold Harbor, in which the Army of the Potomac lost so heavily, proved that the Confederates about Richmond yet pos sessed great power. The papers were filled with long, minute accounts of these battles. At the time the only redeeming feature seen about these from a Union

FREE COINAGE OF SILVER.
A Movement to Purchase All the Snrpl
 Silver in the United States,

A Movement to Purchase All the Surplus
 Silver in the United States. WASHINGTON, Dec. 10-It is stated on the authority of 8 Cabinet officer that Ministers Reid at Paris, Porter at Rome, and Phelps, who has just sailed for Der lin, have been instructed to confer with the respective Ministers of Finance, rep resenting the various countries to which they are accredited, relative to the form ation of some kind of an arrange ment, which will result in the practical free coinage of silver at as early @ date as possible. These instructions have been issued upon the request of a large dumber of free coinage advocates in Congress, after extended conferences during the past two or three days with the leading fnanciers of New York. Philadelphia and other Eastern cities.
 This movement has gone so far as to result in the formulation of bill which provides for the purchase of all the sur plus silver produced in the United States with a view to permanently and speedily taking silver out of the hands of specu- lators, who have been playing havoc with the money market.
 The bill provides further that when silver bullion is on parity with gold worth $1.20 an ounce-the President may by proclamation authorize the free coin age of silver. The issuance of a procIa- nation is made conditional upon the suc- cess of negotiations with the principal foreign governments, which negotiations are to be left open to our ministers abroad under the direction of the State Department and the President. It is be- lieved that England, France, Germany, Italy and Belgium will come into the alliance.
 Senator Plumb introduced a free coin age bill in the Senate to-day carrying out the provisions outlined above.

SECTION XvIL-oN THE MISSISSIPPI
 IN 1904.

Baton Rouge, on the Mississippi, an im- portant place and capital of Louisiana, was taken possession of May 2, 1862, by the Federals, not long after the capture of New Orleans. Later General Will ans, with several thousand troops in his com mand, was stationed here. In mid-sum- mer considerable sickness prevailed among his men, and, this fact reaching the ears of the Confederate authorities, Gen. eral John c. Breckenridge, eX-Vice-Presi- dent of the United States, attacked Gen eral Williams very early on the morning of August 5. 1862.
 The latter officer had but twenty five hundred electives to repcl the attack made with twice that many Confederates
 Maine, Vermont, Massachusetts, Con- necticut, Michigan, Wisconsin and Indiana were represented in the troops under Gen. eral Williams, but the regiments, on ac- count of sickness, were mere skeletons.
 The Indiana regiment lost all it's field officers, and General Williams said {: Boys, will lead you" and, placing him. self at it's head, received the hearty cheers Of the men, when he was shot through the breast and died.
 The Confederates were repulsed, but shortly after the engagement Baton Rouge was evacuated by the Federals. In De- cember, 1862, it was again occupied, this time by General Grover with a force of ten thousand men. From here an advance was intended to have been made against Port Hudson, but was for the time post poned.
 After the opening Of tho Mississippi Baton Rouge was, of course, easily and se- curely held by the Federals. At this place, after the return from Red river, the writer's regiment was for time stationed.
 The writer at the end of the spring months had not fully regained his health, but early in June became so restless that

 standpoint seemed to be the capture of a whole division of Confederates under Gen. eral Edward Johnson by General Hancock's corps.
 The writer grew weary, and chafed under the necessity of remaining away from his regiment, and felt as uneasy as caged bird.
 For, however hard it may have been for a young man with other plans in view to, for the time, relnquish these and join the army, and however much camp life may at first have gone discordantly to his tastes and failings, nine times in ten the young soldier when thoroughly broken in, especially after one or two active campaigns, is con- tented only when with his command.
 By and by came inklings of another active campaign about to be entered upon by the Army of the Gulf, of which the writer's regiment formed a part.
 Later came word of an important move- ment up Red river under Banks. And to- wards the end of April, 1864, word was re- ceived that this campaign had ended in disaster, and that many of the writer's regiment were killed, wounded and taken prisoners. It is hard for one who has never been similarly circumstanced to re- aliZe the exact feelings of the writer when first hearing of this disaster.
 He had some such interest in his regi- ment as one feels in his own family, and yet 1t was different
 It produced an indescribable feeling and o burning desire to be with the command and share its fortunes. whether good or i'll. At first all sorts of rumors were prevalent concerning the loss sustained by the regi. ment.
 This comrade was reported killed, an- other fatally wounded and a third capt. ured. By and by, however, letters from comrades were received, and it was found that the regiment had been very badly crippled, a number killed and wounded, but many more made prisoners.
 General Banks was greatly blamed for the disaster. In March he had started a column up Red river with which a fleet upon this stream under Commodore Porter was in coop ration.
 But the advance when near Mansfield, La., was attacked by a vastly superior force and driven back in disorder upon the main army.
 With the assistance of General A. J. Smith in command of a detachment from the Army of Tennessee, the Confederates were held in check while the whole army under Banks retracei it's steps, and the fleet after great la or in ui'd!ug dam, the water in the river having fallen, WIS finally brought off in safety.

Senators Considorine a Cloture Rule.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-The Republican Caucus Committee of the Senate spent several hours in consultation concerning the advisability of adopting a cloture Rule for the Senate. A number of prop- ositions were considered by the co...mit- tee, but no agreement was reached. The members of the committee are coming closer together in their views, however, and it is likely that a report will be made to Republican caucus to be held in 8 few days.

 O. WooD.-From an Old Photograph. further absence from the regiment seemed out of the question.
 Accordingly, after an all night ride, Cairo, H., was reached one morning about nine o'clock.
 Cairo was a most impo rtant point during the war. Through it passed vast quan. titles of stores, munitions of war and many soldiers. To the latter it was what the mouth of a beehive is to the bees. Indeed it was the mouth of the great busy hive of soldiers operating on the Mississippi, and whether these passed through it on furlough special duty or what not, or whether it was the new recruit, or the veteran going to the front, the place always seemed alive with blue-coats. The writer spent the greater part of the day June g, 1864, in Cairo, and 1t seemed ono of the hottest in his experience. Passage down the river

SAN Francisco, June 2s.-The fact THAI
il never rains in Cahtornia except when
il raias is generally known throughout
thc country as one characteristic CT
this Golden state. But just why these
long annual droughts occur y nsr;
80 generally known. AS the neteou,-
logical conditions which produce the
long, rainlesS summers are set forth ia
tho encyclopedias IL is not my purpose
70 explain them. But some OF the effects
Of this state Of affairs viii not be yith-
out interest 70 eastern farmers al least
To say that except where irrigation Is
practiced the fields become dried UP
sand banks is but 20 relate what every
one might expect. But the resulting
danger from field fires and the practice
OF insrring the grain in the field against
loss from fires are features Of this coun-
try which are novel Grain insC<ence
has come TO be an extensive bran q of
business, and has some interesting feelt-
ures.
The basis of valuation is figured at so
many pounds Of grain 10 the ac5s> and IS
insured at one cent per pound upon the
estimated yield The premiums are at
the rate Of one and one-half cents on the
dollar of insurance, and ii continues n
force for three months. This is figured
as sufficient time TO allow the grain 10
ripea and be harvested after it becomes
dry enough 10 burn In the fields. III
farmer writes insurance on the three
months basis, but gets his grain in the
ware house before the time expires, he
is entitled 10 rebate or draw back on
his premiums. When the grain is stored
in ware houses ii is then insurGble on
another basis. The soliciting insurance
agent gets a commission Of 20 per cent
OF the premiums.
To keep track of such large number
OF short time policies requires an army
Of clerks The salaries Of these clerks,
together with the commissions Of agents
and the profits to the companies, which
arc usually large, all come down and
constitute heavy tax on the farming
community. When therefore we eat hot
cakes made fram California wheat, and
compute from the cost to the consumer
what the profits Of the farmer are, we
must not overlook the army which in
tervenes between the horny handed till
ers of the soil and our breakfast cakes.
Nature seems to have conspired with the
speculative spirit of men in this case.
