a Cool Commander.

Many things of general interest
might be ref err ed to, and some of the
anecdotes con corning Colonel Thomas
must be quoted, rs sh o wing the quail
tiles which made him good general.
He was brave TO excess, and always
in front of his men. At Bisland,
where the regiment h ad to support a

CURED of a soldier, as he has only TO
stand under fire hour after hour, and
wait-Colonel Thomas, upon his
horse, kept the front alone, riding
back and forth, and shouting
such words as Steady Stand firm.
Remember old Vermont is looking at
you! Steady, old Vermont Once, TO
his saying that Vermont was looking
at them, one man replied: Hope
Vermont won't see us in such n scrape
again." which raised n laugh along
the line and helped more than the
sternest command would have done TO
keep the boys in countenance At
another point, where some white
face showed the need OF little more

tore into the earth: This reminds
me of sowing marrow-fat peas up in

they mistook them for Yankee cavalry

at the supposed 'Yanks, and fell back
upon battalion stationed little in

the enemy was upon them.
The battalion, partaking Of the

to hear the sound of the frightened
mules, whose race was not checked
by the volley from the pickets They
retreated also a short distance to
point where whole rebel brigade
had stacked their arms. and were
calmly dreaming of home and battle

The valiant sons of ilars did not

rifles, blankets small arms, KNAPP
sacks, etc. Meantime our transfers
had given the alarm, nd force was
sent out for the recov cry of the mules,

brigade is well worthy of n place in
history. Through its aid a large

The criticisms on travellers who are
accused of cowardice in not meeting
train robbers ''in body" are unjust
The train robber Is there on business
and ready for business. The traveller
Is not. He is out, practically, for
pleasure and is consequently in much
the same position as the fisherman
caught unawares by a bull, and it is
not to be expected that he should
fight train rlbber at such odds just
for the fun of the thing.

IT is now claimed that Pugilist
Riordan, was not killed by the knock

by the autopsy which was held soon
after. This presents novel defense

rules to new classes of postoffice en-

chiefs of division. The postofflce
