oSy . A SCOUT'S STORY. An Incident Recalled by a Vis- it to Harper's Ferry. The Historic Spot and Its Sure roundings. or. Philadelphia Press er's Ferry, W. Va., August 10.—Harper's Ferry and its environ- ments have been so often described and its historical associations so fre- quently narrated that it would be rlufiicu]l to say any novel in reference toit. Very early in the century the beauty and picturesqueness of its river and mountain scenery were graphically depicted by Thomas Jef- ferson, and since then the John Brown raid and Stonewall Jackson’s exploits have added historical and ro- mantic interest to the bright, flashing rivers which join each other at the edge of the town and to the huge cliffs which overhang it. Harper's Ferry is surrounded with battle-fields; within a radius of less than twenty-five miles during the ““late unpleasantness” no less than_ten hard-fought battles took place. For four years the sound of artillery was nearly as familiar to the ears of its inhabitants as the crowing of the cock in a country barnyard. It heard the thunders of artillery at South Mountain, Antiotam, Monoca- cy and Opequon, A sad, melancholy, deserted-looking place it is now. Like Yorktown, the cruel wounds of war have never been healed, and its only glories are in its ruins and its memo- ries, Harper's l"er? is now in West Vir- ginia, being in Jefferson, tho extreme eastern county of that rugged new state. For years it was a source of discontent to the neighboring gentry that they were, witfiout their own consent, cut off from their old mother state, but many events of late years have made them entirely reconciled to their fate, Quite an interest, however, is still maintained here in the politics of Old Virginia. Coming along from Balti- more the merits of Cameron and Daniel were warmly discussed, and T had some conversation with an intel- ligent supporter of the former whose statements somewhat surprise me. I will write further on this as soon as T can visit Harrisburg. THE STORY OF A DARING SCOUT. Some years ago, whilst waiting for the eastward bound train at Haxper's Ferry, I had a most interesting inter- view with one of the scouts that pene- trated the federal lines here just be- fore the capture of the place by Stone- wall Jackson. Asweilas I remember, his name was Tabb—a tall, lithe, keen-cyed Virginian, with a strong, aggressive-looking chin, yet soft-toned and low-voiced. He told me of his adventures, the eventful night when he was sent in, really as a spy instead of acting in his legitimate business as a scout. His directions were to get into Harper's Ferry (where he was slightly acquainted with one or two Southern sympathizers) and ascertain | ™ a8 near as possible the number and position of the garrison, and also par- ticularly to find out about their mor- ale, He wasdressed in Federal uniform with high cavalry boots, which he had recently captured. Puaing by two or three narrow escapes from cavalry videttes, in our narrative I will endeavor to give as nearly as possible his account of his adventures in finally getting within the Federal lines. He was endeavor- ing to enter the town from the west. From about 9 o'clock at night till 11 he made futile efforts to get past the infantry pickets—for the town was thoroughly picketed, and all were on tho alert At length he got down to the river bank, butsaw some distance in front of him a sentinel upon its verge. A daring idea then seized him. Potomac here is very wide, but not deep in the summer or; the early part of the autumn, It was the night of the 12th of Septem- ber, 1862. He determined, with the assistance of a short pole that had come into his possession (the river bottom is full of stones and current very rapid) to wado out in the middle of the stream and come to shore be- low the pickets. Bending over until the water actually splashed into his face, and stumbling over the rocky bed in such a way that he often feared the noise of his boots upon the stones would be heard on shore, several times nearly losing footing, and his ears bewildered almost by the noisy brawling of the rum stream, he yet succeeded without being discov- ered in reaching the bank very near the town, and just beneath the track of the Baltimore and Ohio road. Here, almost exhausted, concealed by the bank and slight railroad embank- ment, he paused to rest and listen before holdly venturing upon the shore. Above him on the other side of the river, a griat somber shadow, black as Erebus, except toward the top, where camp-fires on the further side faintly gleamed, the Maryland Heights frowned down upon "him. Noises wore all around him. The Potomac vied with the Shenandoah, which joins the former a short dis- tance beyond where he crouched, in murmerous music over its stony bot- tom. He could hear the neighing of horses, apparently from the direction of Bolivar Heights south of him, The confused sounds in mauy infantry camps of a great multitude were as vague, indistinguishable, and untrans- latable as the murmuring voices of the waters, A NARROW ESCAPE, A night bird skimmed along the river, and, on suddenly seeing him, arose wil cited brain seemed like the desparing cry of alostsoul, It was a desperate venture he was waking. 1f caught, nnd:rmthc laws of war; he \;:;ihwuu to swift and ignominious " he gazed in deep thought up the tows ering . steeps of Heights, suddenly on its top at the darkest point a small but brilliant ap- out, and was b then -u“o:ls leaped into the bright- est glow, | stood steadfast, cl and ul as a new-born star fresh ‘mh the hands of God..‘u It was y 8 sigual light. everthe- w."udlu, “‘in some unmounué n ble way it gave me th a as all m quiet At first T thought no one was near, but suddenly a little » th a shriek, which to his ex- b point of light within a few feet struck my attention. It was the light of a cigar. The owner had his back to me when I first stepped up, but he turned when he heard me. ‘Where the d bluff voice. The cigar gave me a cue, and as the wind was blowing quite across it, T replied, producing my pij & ond rapidly filling it: ‘Give me a light, captain, if you please; T just stepped down there to light my pipe, protected from the wind, but lost my ast matches. He handed me the cigar, and repeated his question in a milder tone, I had heard of a certan Colo nel Ford, who commanded an Ohio regiment in the garrison, and, by a happy inspiration, 1 an- swered that was an_ orderly of Colonel Ford, ‘Ah! trom Maryland heights then, Why, if you came over the pontoon bridge, how did you get up here! By this time we were in the town, as we had walked along together, and T coull get a good look at my interlocutor. stout. jolly looking fellow, and there was something in his air and appear- ance that plainly indicated that ho was a ‘hail fellow’ with his comrades, and not_at all averse to ‘filling the flowing bowl.” T told him I had come over the pontoon bridge and being un- familiar with the town, had asked the guard there inderstood them that by coming up the railroad and then turning to the left at the first street 1 would soon find myself at the center of the town. ‘You misunderstood him.” said the lieutenant. ‘You should after coming from thepontoon bridge, have turned up to the left toward the railroad bridge and the Shenandoah river, and then turned to the right at the first appearancs of a street.” Af- ter some little conversation I made bold to tell him that I had been sent by General Ford to get a bottle of good whisky for him, and had acci- entally lost a little note giving me directions where to go. Would he take me to a place where I could get it. He laughea at my confidence and said o guessed he could direct me. Just as we were passing a house which, from the bright light in and around 1t, and the horses hitched near it, I judged was the headquarters of some officer of rank, a soldierly look- ing man stepped forth from the door- way and greeted my companion, who saluted him as ‘Colonel.” He gave mea piercing glance and when I look- ed back he was looking steadily after us, Presently he called out, ‘Lieu- tenant, come back herea minute*’ ‘“He returned, and my heart almast stood atill as T heard the colonel ask: ““Who 18 that man, with you?” * ‘“'0h, it’s one of old Ford's order- lies.” “‘What's he after? ““Idon’t know., T will keop an eye on him,” “““Yes, and make him show his vass,’ interrupted the colonel, ‘for youknow the enemy is all around us.’ Al right,’ rejoined the lieuten- ant, and he hastened to catch up with 0. ““‘Wasn't that colonel-’ and I hesitated as if trying to think of the name. ‘Colonel Davis? -yes, and a fine officer he is, though very strict,’ rarlicd my companion. ‘Now, your colonel, fancy, from what I have heard, is good deal the other way, and a right jolly old fellow.” Now, God forgive me and Colonel Ford, too, if he is still living,"” remarked the scout, “‘but of all the lying that was ever promptly, smoothly and rapidly done I think my perfomance wnurd outrank the worst, 1 made out Colonel Ford the most dissipated, reckless, jovial old inebriate that ever farnished texts for temperance lecturers. We soon found a drinking place, and the jolly lieutenant proved himself a worthy companion for Falstaff. When I first paid for the drinks and a bottle of whisky, T again ran a narrow risk, for 1 had nothing but confaderate money and gold, and the use of gold then north of the Potomac was nearly as suspicious as confederate money, But whilst T did not know the barkeeper, his appearance so tallied with a man 1 had heard described asa southern sympathizer engaged in the business here that going to the end of the counter with a warning look I handed kim a five dollar fiold piece. He gave me a reassuring glance, and ostenta- tiously Inid out the greenback change on the counter.” It would take too long to give all the further details of the scout’s ad- ventures. Aboutl o'clock he gave his convivial friend the slip, met in a short time a man who gave him all the necessary information, and know- ing it useless to attempt to go back the way he came he crossed the shen- andoah, The negt morning about two hours after dfibmk, after a ter- rible scramble n Heights, he reported to Gi Walker, who im- mediately sigualed his news to Gener- ‘'wo days afterward with al Jacl Harpel twelvel Dyciawhe bad ¢ slamod A ois, who had so our th "W’ and he cut his 3 ~with his command ouly' meet a soldier’s death at the bloody cavali t of Brandy Station in the following June.

Correspondence of The Denver R “Miss Pinneo,” said a Republican reporter who happened to be in Gree- ley yesterday, and had called on the young lady, “no doubt you realize thet you are, as it were, the daughter of the state of Colorado, and that the people of the state are always deeply interested in whatever they may hear from you or of you. it, they would be pleased to know what races you have in contemplation, with whom, upon what conditions, and whatever other information con- cerning yourself you may be willing to giv Now, Miss Minnie ‘was at home in little parlor, cosy and homelike; wasn't feoling very well; just recover- ing from a protracted, but not serious illness, which first came upoun her while in Leadville attending her last race. Notwithstanding this, she kindly consented to talk a little. “During the races at Omaha, on September 3, T shall ride a ten-mile race against Miss Nellie Burke of Ne- braska. 1 am not acquainted with this lady, but have heard that she is an excellent horse-woman, having ridden several successful races, For this race there will be a purse of 2,000—81,000 on a side. At present 1 am not aware that T shall ride any other raco this fall. My father is now in the east, and may have made ar- rangements for others that I do not know of.” 1t will be remembered that immedi- ately after the Pinneo-uurtis race in Denver Miss Custis challenged Miss Pinneo to ride her a race somewhere in Kansas. Colorado’s horsewoman accepted the challenge and a race was then arranged for, to come off some time during the fall on the To- peka race track. In answer to a ques- tion concerning this Miss Pinneo said: “‘The time for this race has not yet been agreed upon. I am, however, willing and anxious to ride it whenev- er it may be convenient to Miss Cur- tic. It 1s possible my father will see Miss Curtis or her friends while he is east, and that they will agree upon a timo when we shall meet on the track at Topeka.” Just here in the conversation snme- thing was said about rumors of one kind and another, when Miss Pinneo became quite earnest and talked as though she meant what she was say- ing. “It has been reported,” continued she, ““that Miss Belle Cook, the well- known Californian, has challenged me to ride a race with her, and that T have not accepted. This is not true. T have myself a standing challenge to Miss Cook to ride a race of ten or more miles at any time, at any place and for any sum of money within reasonable limits. T have published this, andshe has not seen fit to ac- cept.” It is evident that Miss Pinneo con- siders herselt the best horsewoman in the United States to-day, and will only be too glad to demonstrate this, upon any and every opportunity. e who has thewill to try Thoxas’ wicOtL will surely find the way , sore throat, pains, ete.; and as an internal remedy itis invaluable. codlw, ORDINANCE NO. 478, An ordinance creating the office of city scavenger, and prescribing the duties of the same, I it ordained h{ the city council of the city of Omaha, as fol Seetion 1.
