not really in favor of " SOLITARY" confinement
as i discovered as soon as the key was turned
on me in the dark den, Tor an enormous rat ran
either over my face or limbs on au average Of
every five minutes during the entire night.
The whrlgig of time however brings strange
changes of fortune; for Turner himself lived
to succeed mo as a prisoner in that dungeon
when Richmond fell.
Poor KOwitZ, whose head this bit of she'll
had gashed beside mo at Gettysburg, and
which secured mo special accommodations at
Libby, had that head torn completely from
his shoulders by sholl at Petersburg year
later and while | was still in prison. The
fragment that caused this trouble is still among
the trophies of the defunct COnfederacy, and
in destroying tho letters l had rendered tho
last and only service in my power to both
my Comrade and foe. Turner's brutality on
this occasion is noticed in Richardson's book,
"The Field, Dungeon and Escape"
In letter received months afterwards in
Libby from Col. Burns, the news of George
Demons death was fully confirmed and the
report of my Confederate friend fully verified.
The news, though not surprise, panied my
heart most keenly, and his prophetic words rose
wildly to my memory: Il shall not wear it
long. / will follow Tom, and be killed in the
next battel"
Such was the chapter of incidents that rose
to mind when next / visited Gettysburg, 25
years alleT the DaJJle, anu $1,000 nL inc grave ol
my comrade in the beautiful cemetery that
crowns the Immortal Hill, and read the touch
ing and brief legend that tells so little to tho
stranger, but so much to me, of young hero of
the Union, the twin of Tom, who sleeps Mt
charlottesville and the friend and cOInrade Of
him who afIectionately records this memoir of
his soldier life. Lot those who pass the spot
drop a flower over the peaceful mound They
will find IL easily in the New York circle of
graves and by the simple inscription Lieut.

singular incident attended my visit in
1883 to Gettysburg. Among the visiting sur
vivors of our regiment who came to mark the
spot whore our monument is to stand was
Serg't John Benson of Co. +, who had been
severely wounded in the shoulder in the battle
The bullet had been extracted, and for tho
generation that had since elapsed had been
worn suspended to his watch chain
That such thing should become detached and
lost could not ordinarily be- regarded ais either
strange or important enough a circumstance to
justify published mention. but that the com
rade should have carried it securely about him
in all the wanderings Of tho quarter of - cen
tury and then return aud lose it on the battle
field where he had received 1t hot from rebel
muskot was certainly an odd freak of fortune

Blsine's Reciprocity Scheme.
WAsHINGToN, July Is Senator Frye,
in reply to Secretary Blaine's letter Of
the 1lth inst, has written him as fol-
lows: "Your letter leaves me in some
doubt as TO facts assume that your
views are contained in what is known
as the Hale amendment; that you know,
for instance, what the Latin republics
will receive Of ours free from duty In
compensation for free sugar assume
that that amendment was the result OF
thorough investigation. The difficulty
about il is this: The amount OF sugar to
be received from those States would be
comparat vely small and the consumer
Of sugar would receive no benefit from
it. Your letter TO me extends the idea
of reciprocity 20 Cuba and Porto Rico
admit il sugar is received free from
these islands as well as from the Latin
republics the people would be benefited
and sugar would be practically free.
But will Spain admit into those islands,
free of duty, the list OF articles named
In that amendment? OF course we could
not enact a law more favorable to Spain
than to tho republics. DO you know
what Spain would exchange for free
sugar, and can you give list OF the ar
ticles she would receiver The better
way, probably, would be TO make the
list she would receive the controlling
one for all these countries"
