Mrs. George w. Taylor, of Eaton, Glib.
son Co., Tenn, says: 'I had had chronic
diarrhpa for six years. l tried every.
thing l could hear of and had consulted
several physicians without avail. My
husband bought me bottle of Pe-ru-na
and | began to improve at once. L can
do anything l ever could, and eat any
thing without inconvenience; and when
| say If it had not been for Pe-ru-na would
now be in my grave, do not think eXag-
gerate."
Chronic diarrhna is nothing else than
catarrh of the bowels.
May Belle. New York stage beauty,
SAYS: "Pe-ru-na not only cures catarrhal
affections, but if rightly used in time, viii
protect against them infalibly.'
The remedy that will cure catarrh in one
location will cure it in all locations, if it be
an internal remedy, operating through the
system. Pe-ru-na is exactly such rem
edy. 1t is an internal specific for catarrh.

listed Sept. 3, 1864, at Columbus, o.,
and was stationed at Camp Thomas, North
Columbus, until Dec. 1, 1864. When
ordered to join our regiment, we rested at
Todd Barracks, Columbus, until the Fall
elections We're over. We reached Lookout
Mountain in the month of February, where
we were drilled in the military tactics until
the Spring of 1865. We were then sent to
do provost duty at Louisville, KY, my
company guarding the Terry landing on
the Kentucky side.
In the month of April we were sent to
Fort Leavenworth, Kans., under command
of Col. Darlington, formerly of Indian
apols, Ind. Capt Tenyke, of Indiana,
was Captain of Co. H, I'd Battalion, 18th
Leavenworth about the 10Th of April, 1865.
Our orders were to relieve the 11th o. V. c.,
4th n. V. c., 9Th West Va. V. c., and Sth
Mo. Cav, who had been sent out west to
keep down the uprising of the fierceSioux,
Cheyenne, and Arrapahoe Indians.
This expedition was headed by Col.
Darlington and Lieut.-Col. Fetterman.
The other officers with the command were
Capt Haymon. Capt. Brown, Capt. Burt,
Lieut.. McCleary, Lieut.. Drummond, and
Lieut. Bisbee, all of the 18th U. S. l.
We reached Fort Kearny, Neb., about
| orders to go TO Cottonwood Springs, Neb.
Here we saw our first Indians, the Pawnee
tribe. We had 200 enlisted scouts from this
| tribe, with Buffalo Bill, or William Cody,
as their leader. They were a terror to all
| the wild tribes in the west. Drilled as
soldiers, with their knowledge of Indian
| warfare, and armed with Henry rifles, to-
gether with their fighting qualities, they
were no mean contestants in battle.
Our regiment, now called the 9th Inf,
was mounted on the horses of the cavalry
men whom we relieved and armed with
mIZzle-loading Springfield rifles.
Neither Col. Darlington nor any in his
command, excepting Capt. (now GEM
Nelson A. Miles, knew anything about
Indian fighting. Capt. Miles was stationed
at Fort Bridger. and, with the aid of Buffalo
Bills scouts, was brought to the scene of
| action. That campaign over and all quiet,
the Winter of 1865 setin.
| Meantime the Indians were getting hum
gry for more figh5. We were ordered over
| the Platte River at Old California Crossing.
We ferried over Bridger Ferry and went into
camp not far from that place. A courier,
who had been sent from Fort Laramie,
arrived, stating that his orders were for us
to make forced marches to Fort Laramie,
as that place was threatened by an attack
from Spotted-Tail and Red Cloud, before
we could get through to interfere. But we
reached the Fort in good time, as the In
dians had not yet gathered for counsel.
| About 1000 Indians were camped near
| the fort, for the purpose of siege, or else to
starve the little garrison, for, all told, we
| could only muster about 700 men-miners,
prospectors, traders. and soldiers.
| Mai. Van Vost was in charge of the fort.

renIleman who has for many years been a
treuuenier of the Capitol always makes 1t
a point to walk, when going from his hotel
in the west end aad when returning, to sit
backward in an open carriage, that he may
have the best possible views OF what he con-
siders the greatest building in the world.
Leaving the Capitol, if one has the artiS-
tic temperament. he will invariably pass
down the flights of steps at the western
entrance, stroll down the sloping walk,
take a turn to the left TO look at the noble
monument erected in memory of President
Garfield and from there pass through the
Botanic Gardens, which are always red
Dlent with a succession OF roses through
out the growing season, as well as great
variety OF other flowers, in circles and
parterres. If the day is not too warm he
will pass through the glass buildings,
heavy with the odorS of tropical vegetation,
and then stroll down the walks, lined with
an exquisite variety of Towering shrubs,
until he has left the confines and passes
down to the park.
NAVAL MONUMENT.
Or, upon leaving the Capitol grounds,
ne may turn TO the right, and after brisk
walk pause before the Naval Monument,
which, like the National Capitol, faces
Pennsylvania Avenue direct. 1t was
erected in 1873 by officers and men of the
naval service, in memory of the officers,
seaHlel ana marines OF the Dnited states
Navy who fell in defense of the Union and
Liberty of their country, 1876, as the
inscription tells us.
The Naval monument is the more in
teresting from the fact that it was designed
from a sketch by Admiral Porter 1t is of
pure Carara marble resting upon granite
foundation, and represents America telling
the story of those who died in her service,
while History records this eulogy upon her
tablets: They died that their country
might live" Below these figures is one of
Victory with an infant Mars and Neptune
holding up a laurel wreath. On the re-
verse Peace offers the olive branch.
