the Navy Mallory at once assigned him to
this duty. His instructions were to buy
and equip vessels of war in European
ports, see that they were manned and
armed and get them out to sea. 1t was
the hope of the Confederate government
10 build navy abroad and the execution
of this difficult project was contided to
Capt. Bulloch. He started for Europe as
soon as he had received instructions and
reached Liverpool on June 4, 1861.
He at once began to carry his instruc-
lions into effect and the Alabama and
the Florida were the first two ships that
got to sea under his auspices For both
of them he contracted for building, arma-
ment and supplies and under his personal
supervision they began their celebrated
cruises against the merchant marine of
the United States, with what brilliant
success history has tod.
Besides the Florida and the Alabama,
Capt. Bulloch purchased the Bermuda,
the Atlanta. the Stonewall. the Shenan-
doah. the Coquette. the Georgia the Rap
pahanuock, the Pampero. and other Con-
federate vessels of war Much of the
time he was greatly hampered by the lack
of funds but in most cases, with the as
sistance Of the Confederate financial
agents abroad he solved this difficulty
along with others.
The story of his exploits during the four
years Of this difficult service reads like
romance He had constantly o con-
tend with the neutrality laws "a the
countries in which he purchased, armed
and manned his ships, and II was neces-
sary to elude the vigilance of ministers,
consuls and special agents of the United
States ashore and their vessels OF war
the mouths Of the harbors. What deli
cacy and diplomacy were needed to ac-
cOnonlish The results ne attained. under
such circumstances as these, may readily
be imagined
Capt Buloch received many expressions
Of the esteem and admiration In which
he was held by the Confederate Secretary
of the Navy, and others high in the gov
ernment for his able conduct of the SER
vice entrusted to him. 1t was carried on
until the termination of hosuliues with
equal ability, zeal and discretion.
Capt. Buloch had resided In Liverpool
since che war, passing his time in such
quiet pursuits as suited his inclnations.
He has written book. The Secret Ser
vice of the Confederate States in Eu-
rope" which Is at once a thrilingly in

piracy" that ignorance and bad taste
have sometimes applied TO them.
At the time OF his death Capt Buloch
was I'm his seventy-scvcnth year. but re-
tanned his faculties ana his spirits al-
most to the last His services TO the
Confederate government have long passed
unnoticed save by the careful studeuts

New York, Jan. s-The Mail and Ex-
press says:
william K. Vanderbilts plan for the
welding together of the Union Pacific and
Chicago and Northwestern Railroads.
which he conceived more than year ago,
is now about to be carried out. When il
is completed it will be found that the
Vanderbiks have a through trans-conti-
Mental line OF their own from the Atlantic
to the Pacific ocean.
The original scheme was TO lease the
Union Pacific to the Northwestern, burt
il is not yet certain whether this will be
done or not. The control of the former
is to be acquired through the purchase
of a majority of Union Pacific stock, and
this is being done in the open market.
THE Vanderbilts already have a con-
siderable representation in the Union Pa
cific directory.
1T was reported in Wall street to-day
that the new Union Pacific alliance would
be still further enlarged by the addition
of other railroads in the Central West,
including the Alton and Rock Island.

Capt. Bulloch's high services TO the

no disease it does not initiate. Catarrh
prevails in all seasons and spares no
calling or vocation. No locality is en-
tirely free from its ravages, no amount

Neither childhood nor old age is exempt
from its presence, and it does not respect

Summer and winter, spring and

country. But it is especially during the
winter season that catarrh does its most
