Harrison on the Ratt,sf,.,d.

It was almost the middle Of NAV
1854, before Colonel Harrison had an
opportunity to participate in one oi
those great battles which have become
historic. Resaca was the field upon
which he made for himself reputation
for coolness and personal valor which
none can assail. He led on foot the
charge of his brigade upon formidable
redoubt. Away in advance Of the five
regiments he ran across the valley
which to 80 many was the valley OF
death, and still in the lead he climbed
the hill on which scores fell to rise no
more.
Colonel Harrison was among the first
to cross the parapet. It has been said
he was the very first. A hand to hand
combat ensued, the gunners defending
themselves with their rammers and the
assailants attacking with their clubbed
muskets; officers exchanged pistol shots.
It was in fact one of the rare instances
of genuine bayonet charge without a
shot fired except by the defenders of the
redoubt. The air rang with victorious
cheers, and for awhile the inclosure was
q scene of frantic joy. The colors had
all been borne inside, and to both friend
and enemy in the distance they an
nounced that the height was gained

Waahinefon Rannior

He slashes Grover Vigorously at the
Washington Reunion. =
General Sickles still ..has Il i'm for
Mr.. Cleveland. Addressing his old COM
rades OF the gallant Third corps in
Washington he defended the pension
system, which recognizes in practical
way the services which the soldiers of
the Union armies had rendered their
country in its hour of peril. But he said
more, and these are some of his words:
"You are going home now, and there
is something want you to take home
with you. Ponder it: teach it to your
children; tell it to your neighbors. It is
this truth: That the people of the United
States will see that no man is ever
elected to an Office of profit and trust in
this country who opposes the payment
OF pensions to the soldiers of the Union. !"
That was q saber thrust at Mr.. Cleye-
land, who was never so merry as when
hunting for half a reason to veto
widows pension. Thereport continues:
'The general leaned on his crutches
as he spoke these words, and the sharp.
idiomatic, merciless sentence, clean cut
as paragraph Of constitutional law,
cut through the air like the slash of a
cavalry saber. He rammed the words
home hard, asC in Bigelow did the
last charge Off assachusetts battery
of the Third col, ., and the effect was as
instantaneous as when Captain Bigelow
pulled the lockstring. In q moment
what was left of the old Third corps
spoke with its old charging ring its
opi1ion Of the man whose only Joke was
cut at the expense of disabled veterans.
Three cheers for the man who made
that speech cried Comrade General
Carr, springing to his feet, and again
the charging cry of the old Third corps
rang out into the night of Grand Army
place and rolled up to the White House."
General Sickles was evidently right
when he waved his crutch I'M the Chi
cago convention and declared that
Grover Cleveland would never receive
the votes Of the men who fought to pre-
serve the Union.

II the United States is not producing

the price of wool fallen in the London
market over 81 per cent. since January.

the price of American wool has been
only per cent?
Why should Democratic Labor Com.

and given life to industry, cause sucE
great sorrow in the free trade camp?
If the tariff has caused strikes, why
were there 1,740 fewer strikes in New
