ENGLAND and France were Russia's
- chief opponents in her plans of
development, and the United States,
desiring to obtain hrst-hand informa-
ton of the scrap. selected a party to
go to the seat of war and report on the
maneuvers there. Col Richard Deia-
field of the Engineers, Maj. Mordecai,
Ordnance Department, and Lieut.
George B. Mcclellan, later famous as
the Civil War general, whose statue
stands on the top Of the hill on Con-
necticut avenue, just north Of Florida
avenue, were sent TO represent the Ar
tillery branch of the service.
According to Miss Mordecai: "They
were abroad more than year, and
each made extensive reports on his re-
turn. Col Bell took charge of the Ar

"Ringgold was the only married
officer at that time, but many OF the
soldiers had wives and children left
in the barracks. The Potomac was
not so wide as it is now, for 1t has
been dredged and deepened, but then
it was full of boats of all kinds and
sizes. The Phoenix and the Joe john
son made hourly trips to Alexandria,
and the larger steamboats, (all side
wheelers) met the Richmond train at
Aqua Creek daily. It was from these
boats that we got our newspapers.
After father had read the war news he
assembled the company and read 1t
to them. I recall one day, when the
news was particularly exciting, he
tried to ring the bell and turned it
over.
I'VE lived many happy years at the
Arsenal, though everything was most
primitive. We had an old horse (Dan-
iel Webster) who knew us all and who
never could be persuaded out Of a
steady pace when mother was in the
carriage. We children had a green
box cart made at the Arsenal with
green baize curtains and long ham
die. Our two little brothers sat inside
and the young officers would often
take the pole and run off with it, fol-
lowed closely by Laura or me pulling
the dolls in a soap box.

has stood for many years at the head
Of John Marshall place, where 50 many
notable cases have been tried, Gar

his mouth. The washington Jail was
then at the northeast corner Of Judici-
airy Square, and when the prisoner
reached there he collapsed and fell to
the floor, dying in a short time. It
was later disclosed that he had taken
a dose Of strychnine.

from the grave Of Napoleon at St.
Helena was brought by Commodore
Porter, who represented the United
States when the body was removed to
Les Invalides in Paris. It was planted
by the Office, but too near the well
where we got drinking water, so it was
slipped and planted along the river
bank. All the willow trees on the
Speedway are descended from it.

Early In the Winter Of 1861
father got notice that he would be

July ! I was just 1s and celebrated my
birthday at a ball given by our life
long friend, Comdr. Wilkes, in the
Madison House, now the Cosmos Club.
I can well remember Dolly Madison
with her curls and turban. recall
once seeing her in the basement Of
the Capitol, sitting for an Italian. who
was making her likeness on a cameo.
I have often wondered what became
Of 1t.
MY dear father took me often with
him to public places that would inter-
est or instruct me. He took me to the
Senate to hear Webster and Clay dis
cuss the Missouri Compromise, so that
I might recall it when old. Mr.. Cor
coran and ne were close friends. I
was at ball given by Mr.. Corcoran to
George Peabody when the alcove for
the Greek slave was opened. Comdr.
wilkes ball was also given to that
distinguished Englishman.
'I must not forget to mention our
dear old schoolmistress, Nine. Burr.
She was q real French woman, aban-
doned by her parents and brought up
In New York at one of their large
schools. She was q splendid teacher

work was all seasoned with affection.

plans to win delegates to the

His Two Motives
Two motives, he revealed,
prompted him to make the race:
1.-Mr. Roosevelt's "repudia

form.
2.-The "alien-mirded tamper.
ing with our Constitution"
Colonel Breckenridge already
has submitted a declaration OF

and Pennsylvania and next In
tends to invade Maryland.

He Is q well-known New York
