Washington, thousands of patriotic men
were crowding the trains from every part of
the State for Harrisburg to enter the mill
tary service.
Senator Sherman Agreed With Curtin.
To the utter surprise of the Governor and
the commander of the department the first
communication received from Washington,
after notice OF this requisition for addi-
tional troops had been forwarded, was a
blunt refusal to receive any of the regiments
under the new call; and to emphasize the
attitude of the Government and its appre-
citation of the magnitude of the war, Secre-
tary Cameron stated in dispatch
to the Governor, not only that the
troops could not be received, but sthat
it was more important to reduce than
enlarge the number Earnest appeals
were made to the President and the War De-
partment from the Governor and General
Patterson to have these troops, or at least
part of them, accepted, but every such ap-
peal was met with a positive refusal John
Sherman, then as now, Senator from Ohio.
was volunteer aid on General Patterson's
staff, and he fully agreed with the authori-
ties at Harrisburg that it was of the utmost
Importance to the government that the ad-
dltlonal Pennsylvania troops be accepted.
In view of this important political posi-
tion and presumed influence with the Presi-
dent and Secretary of War, he was hurried
to Washington as soon as communications
were opened to make personal appeal for
the acceptance of the troops. On the 30th
of May, five days after the requisition had
been made, he wrote General Patterson from
Washington, Stating that he had entirely
failed to persuade the Government to accept
any part of these new regiments.
His Defense of his Position
1t was not within the power of the
Government to depose Governor Curtin and
order him to some military barracks as a
lunatic, but it could rebuke him for pro-
posing to furnish large number of additional

The Troops That Were Rejected.
This call OF Curtin was made without the
authority of the general government and
entirely without the knowledge of the Pres
ident or Secretary of War. Pennsylvania
and the whole loyal North had been cut off
from all communication with the National
Capital for several days by reasonable
rioters in Baltimore, who burned the rail-
road bridges and prevented all railroad or
even graphiccommunication with WASH
ington. In this grave emergency, although
Pennsylvania had furnished every man
called for by the Government, and had Of
fered many more than the quota, after the
most careful study of the situation with
General Robert Patterson and Colonel Fitz
John Porter, then serving as Assistant Ad-
jutant General, and number of civilians
who were heartily sustaining Curtin in his
arduous labors, it was decided to assume the
responsibility of calling out 26 additional
regiments for service under the general
Government, because it was believed by all
that they would be needed as speedily as
thev could be obtained.
The requisition for troops made by Penn
sylvania was in pursuance of the unanimous
Judgment of the military and civil authori-
ties then at Harrisburg, and it was not
doubted that the Government would CRATE
fully accept them. The response to Curtin's
proclamation for volunteers was une1am-
pied, and in the few days during which Har-
risburg was without communication with

Dogs Shows Are Fashionable.
When bench shows were first held in this
country they were patronized almost ex-
clusiveIy by men, but in New York, Bos-
ton, Chicago and other large aities nova
end of the attendance. This was more
especially true of the recent big show in
New York City. Where the evening at
tendance was characterized by the number
of persons present in full dress.
The drawback in this city has always
been the lack of suitable place to hold the
show, but numerous improvements have
been made in the internal arrangements of
the Auditorium on Penn avenue for the
coming show. The floor space has been in
creased, and all the small dogs will be
shown in the galleries
The big dog classes-St Bernards, mas
tifs. etc.-will be one of the leading feaf-
ures of the show. The recent imports-
tions of wealthy New Yorkers have
added some very sensational dogs
in these classes and these dogs
are all entered for the coming show.
The array Of sporting dogs will be as good
as ever if not better, and that is saying
good deal rs there are SO many good pointers
and settlers owned in this locality and SO
many people who appreciate the good
points Of field dog.

troops, when, as subsequent events proved.
the Government had the most pressing
need for them. Fortunately for the Gov
ernment and for the complete vindication of
the broad sagacity and heroic fidelity of
Curtin, he resolved to perform his duty to
his State and nation, regardless of the
Washington authorities.
After bitter contest, in which some
prominent Republicans opposed the Gov

appropriating $500, 600 to provide for the de-
fense of the State, and he had issued his
call for an extraordinary session of the
Legislature as early as the Goth of April, to
meet the great issue of civil war. He
revoked his proclamation for additional
regiments called for by General Patterson's
requisition, but much more than one-half
the number called for had already yolun-
teered, and were practically in charge of the
State for organization. When the special
session of the Legislature met on the 3Oth
of April he sent an earnest message calling
for the organization of the volun-
teers then in camp into Is regi-
ments as State corps, but to be subject to
the call of the United States in any emerg-
ency. 1t was this brave action of Curtin
that gave us

troops were organized not only without the
aid Of the National Government, but in de-

its positive declarations that they could not

heroic policy on the part of Curtin.
1t involved a loan of $4,000, 900, when
the credit of the State was severely
strained, and every partisan or fac
