RAILWAY CASE
HANGING FIRE.

There are no new developments In
the adjustment of the differences be
tween the employees of the Northern
Pacific railway and it's officers. Local
trainmen are careful not to say any
thing in regard to their probable ac-
tions In the event the company fails
to make further concessions.
General Manager J, r. Stevens of
tho Great Northern railway went east
over the Northern Pacific Wednesday
night and a committee will meet him
on his arrival at St Paul.
1t is thought probable that the
committees of both roads, who are
now in st. Paul. are working in con-
junction with each other.

EsSX " MT was the afternoon of the kXA x 4th of August, 1864, in the kS%s5@SssY cabin of the U. s. steamer G$sssssXaSaD s1oop of war Hartford, car rying the flag of Admiral David Glas- gow Farragut, Captain Percival Dray- ton commanding.
 "Well, Drayton," said the admiral, looking up from the chart at the officer sitting near him in the cabin, 'sI think we have done everything we can do in the way of preparation, and nothing now remains but to put the affair to the test.''
 Yes, sir" answered Drayton, tall, thin, dark, swarthy, full bearded sailor, the able commander of the Hartford and Farragut's fleet captain, as brave an officer as ever sailed ship. II can think of nothing to add to the instrue- tions you have prepared"
 "The ships are to go in pairs lashed together" continued. the admiral slow ly, rehearsing his orders to see if any thing further occurred to him, ''the weaker vessels on the port hand. If one ship is disabled by the enemy's fire the other will be able to carry her
 
 will be at flood in the morning and we could almost drift in were the process not little too slow. And count upon the tide turning the percussion caps of the torpedoes away from the ships. The four monitors will go to starboard and ahead of the fleet and engage the forts at close range. The two heavier single turret ones will then proceed to engage the Tennessee, while the double turret Mississippi river monitors will lie off the fort and cover our passage. We have had word that the Pensacola and the Tecumseh will be here this afternoon-thank Godl I was mOrti- fled to death to find the army ready to begin this morning and we not able to carry out our part of the programme as agreed"
 Waiting will do the soldiers no harm, sir,' said Drayton, "and hardly think it would be prudent to venture until all the fleet be here. The odds are heavy against us as it is."
 "Yes, yes; I suppose you are right. I don't fancy these iron pots myself, Drayton, but in this instance we must have them," replied Farragut thought fully, with sailors natural reluctance to yield to monitor or ironclad any SUI periority to the beautiful wooden ships on which he had served, been trained and one of which now bore his flag.
 The time was the transition period be- tween wood, sails, steam and iron, and while sails were doomed it was not yet quite certain that the oak timbers would give way to the iron beam, or the broadside frigate to the turret raft.

CHAPTER xxv1.
LAST CMARQE.

ES& 1zOMAlS' position could not be outdanked. He must be :sEES driven from it by direct as-
 saultror not at all. Longstreet had one small division, Preston's, of Buckner's corps, in reserve which had not yet been heavily engaged. At the front of it to strengthen it he put Dar- rows brigade. His men had waited their turn with the philosophy of vet erans who knew that the day could not pass without their being poured Into that smelling furnace of death andl destruction. They had moved forward in the wake of the grand assaulting column and were now drawn up just out of range from the hill under the trees. At the head of the brigade rode PIeasants with what was left of his Alabamians.
 Longstreet called General Preston to him and pointed out the necessity of capturing the hill. This was the last supreme effort. If 1t failed, there could be no more assaults on that hill that day.
 Darrow and the field officers, after a few words to their men, dismounted from their horses and without further preiiminaries took up the advance, Longstreet and the rest looking pain fully on The troops came forward in long lines. They stepped out deliber- Rtely at first, keeping their dress on the flags, and then more rapidly at the double quick.
