Great Generals Engagement.

: striking incident in TIE lie OF Gen.
Graut was mentioned By an Intimate
friend. Il related to the delicate sub
iect Of how the General popped the
question. Those who knew General
Grant intimately car imagine how ne
could storm rampant, charge bat
tery of artillery, OF lead fo;!or1 nope
in battle easier than nc could ask Ior
the hand of the woman he loved. Ihe
occasion when the young Lieutenant
in the army and Julia Dent plighteo
their troth was not one of those ideal
moonlight nights nor were the stars
twiukling over lovers signs, but on
dark stormy night in the woods OF
Missouri. The Lieutenant was visiting
his army comrade and former class-
mate, Fred Dent. He had driven into
town in a buggy with his comrades
sister. The young people were on
their way home. The darkness had
oycrtaken them. The rain had fallen
IN torrents and the roads were axle
deep with mud. The lightning flashed
and the thunder pealed out OF the
blackness of night which followed. 4
swollen stream and frail bridge STOOD
in their way. AS they reached the
dangerous spot sudden flash OF cleo
tric LIGHT revealed the terrors OF the
tlood, and the dangers Of the bridge.
In an instant, availing himself OF tins
moment of light, the brave young Oil
Ger urged the good steed upon the
o,iTcrine doorway. A dreadful burst
Of thunder shook the very foundations
of the earth. The young maiden, who
had thus far bravely faced the terrors
Of the situation, stunned by the tire
mendous crash, grasped the unmored
Lieutenant by her side with alrlShted
force. The bridge now began TO yield
to the undermining action Of the rag
ino torrent. AS it seemed to sink away
the maid exclaimed in her fears, 80,
we are lost" No. Julia, came
tender reply from the heart full OF
emotion which beat Il that brave
Young breast. Nothing shall happen
to YOU. I shall take care OF you"
Another flash in timely succession re-
yealed the terrible situation, but one
iudic;ous stimulation of the powerful
stecd brought the Lieutenant and his
hearts treasure once more upon the
solid ground Of the other side as the
plankway of the bridge moved away IN
the surging flood. Rescued from sit
uation so perilous was the occasion
for thoughtful silence The storm
beaten lovers pushed on their trying
way through mud and rain and wind.
Soon out of the darkness came a
voice, Julia, were you frightened?
What terrible night it is!" said the
maiden in reply. II woald always
Ike to care for you and protect you.
MAY I do so??" Yes in the simple
Innocence of her girlish heart was the
answer.-PbiladeLphul Inquirer.

HELD FOR STEALING.

Our Brdport correspondent tells of the
arrest in that town Saturday night of
Jonas Howe of Bridport and Robt. Fer
guson of Ticonderoga, charged with
stealing. They were brought here and
lodged in Jail. The complainant was Solo
mon Durham, substantial citizen of
Hancock. Early in the winter Howe and
Ferguson went over to Rochester to
chop, but owing to the lack of snow,
work was suspended in the woods, and
on January 6 they started for home.
That night they secured lodgings at Mr..
Dunham's. On a table in the room where
they slept stood a small trnnk, and on
opening it they discovered pocket
book, which they took. Soon after leav-
ing the house in the morning the money
was divided and the pocket-book placed
in the crevice of large rock near the
roadside. Ferguson appropriated the
lions share of the money, a $50 bill,
which he subsequently had changed at
the bank in Port Henry.
This is the story of the crime as con-
fessed to States Attorney Wilds, We'd
Npesday morning, by Howe. Mr.. Wilds
sent Deputy Sheriff Middlebrook, with
driver, over to Hancock at once, escort
ing thither Howe. The prisoner found
the rock where the money was divided
and the pocket-book, which was produc-
ed at the hearing before Justice of the
Peace Seymour Edgerton yesterday.
Both the respondents were held for the
grand jury, and, as neither could pro-
cure bail in the sum of $500, the amount
fixed by the court, they were remanded
to Jail.
