Leaves from Colonel Markiand's War Memories---Joke Played on @eneral Sherman. How @eneral Howard and Others Forced Him to Take Seid- litz Powder. Deseription of a Council of War-- Scenes at the Close of Sher- man's March to the Sea. Looked—How Received Thelr How Old Tecumseh the Boldiers Mail—Affecting Seenes, Correspondence Cleveland Leader, I am ab.e to give the readers of the Leader some more extracts this morning from the manuseript notes ot Col. A, H. Markland, the head of the mail service durin the war. The firat relates how Gen, Howard un. thinkingly COMPELLED GEN. SHERMAN TO SEIDLITZ POWDER when he wanted rather a drink of cld bourbon whisky. ¢“When Gen. Sherman’s army was at Goldsboro, N. C., Gen. Sherman made a visit to the headquarters of Gen, How- ard. While there Gen, Sherman felt the need of a emall dranght of whisky to drive off the malarlal effectsof the climate on his system. Now all the officers of the army know of Gen. Howard's rigid tom- peranco proclivitles, and were strict In their respect for them. Gen. Sherman knew there was no whisky in General Howard’s quarters, and therefore did not mention his wants to_General Howard. Presently Dr. John Moore, the medical TAKE A versati>n General Sherman gave him the wink and sald, ‘Doctor, have you a seld- litz powder In your quartera?’ = The doc- tor answered that he had. General Howard spoke np andeald: ‘General Sherman, it Is not neceseary to go to the doctor's quarters, 1 have plenty of seld- litz powders here, and good ones, too., 1 will get you one.’ If there wasany- thing in General Howard's quarters that General Shermrn did not want it was a seidlitz powder, and therefore he sald to General Howard: ever mind, Gen- eral! Give yourself no trouble’—How- ard was then getting the giaesos of water ready—1 will be golng by Moore’s quar- tors after awhile.” Dr. Moore was a great wag and quickly took in the situation and becamo a party toa joke on_General Sherman. He sald to General Sherman, ‘By the wsy, general, I dont think I have a geidlitz powder o my quarters and you had better take the one GeneralHow- ard had,’ By this timo General Howard had the powder all ready for useand handed the glass to General Sherman. Rather than offend Howard by saying he meant whisky he drank the foaming stuff’ down to his disgusat, to the satisfaction of General Howard and to the amusoment of the stafl officers.” My second extract desribes A COUNCIL OF WAT “] think I was in a council of war once. Maybe it was only an informal consultation. It wasin the early days of the fall of 1863 when General Thomas L. Crittenden’s command was at Calhoon on Green river, Kentucky, and aiter the Dbattle of Sacramento in that neighborhood. There was a rumor brought in’ that For- rest with a large forco was moving on Oalhoon with & view to the captors of Gen. Orittenden’s command, the troops were mostly composed of raw recruits, badly armed, equippad, and the cavalry indifferently mounted. The cflicers and men were brave, and on many & battle- field thereafter proved thelr soldierly (ualities. The council of war wasan impromptu affalr to take Into consldera- tlon the gravity of the situation in the event that Forrest should advancein force on the command, It was held in a large room with an old-fashioned fireplace taking In almost all of one of its sides, Goneral Crittenden eat next to me, close by the fireplace, and the officers dispoeed of themselyes as best they could from the limited accommodation ot the room. The condition of each regiment and company was talked over. The words buck and ball, Belgian rifle, worthless pistols, otc., were frequently used. There had been no opportunfty to drlll the men because of the frequent rains and the resulting mud. Calhoon was at that time the muddiest place 1 saw dur- ing the war. I gave my opinion of the condition in which the postotiice would be found in event that Forrest should come. Gen, Crittenden gave respecful, but eilent attentlon to all that was eald. At the close he arose from his seat, put both hands in his pantaloons pockets and strode acrosy the room, saying, ‘Gentle men, all I have to say on this subject ls that if Forrest or any other contederate comes we must go in and trust to our personal couraze to win the fight.’ The federal government owed much to Crit- tenden for the promptnees with which he espoused the cause of the Union, and theroby greatly contributed to save the state of Kentucky to it.” SCENES AT THE OLOSE MARCH, My third extract I take from that por- tlon relating to Col, Markland’s meeting with Gen, Sherman as he came to thesea coast at the close of that famous march OF SHERMAN'S to the ses. Col, Markland had been sent by Gen. Grant with the mail for Sher- man’s army in a small steamer to coast along the South Carolina shore, to ascertain where Sherman would come out and be there on hand to give hls tired soldiers their mall which they had not had for months. Colonel Markland’s bost was on the Island Olty, He had met Admiral Dahlgreen’s flag ship and had had a consultatlon with him before he met Sherm: nd he had met Sherman and had given him Presi- dent Lincoln's message, saying: *‘God ble:s General Sherman, and God blesy *; and the mail is now to be given to the soldl Oolonel Markland sald to me to-nlgh ““When I dellvered that message to General Sherman, was the only time that 1 ever saw him affected or moved by any- thing. He was, you know, a great man in tho eyes of his troops. Before our boats met, and as soon as we got within earshot, he kept hallooing to me and ask {ng me all sorts of questions about the news and the welfare of his friends whom I had lately been assoclated with, As our boats came together—he was, you know, on the flag ship—I jumped on to the flag ship and siezed General Sherman by the hand, He grasped my hand firmly, and before I said anything else, told him Lincoln’s message to him. He kept his eyes upon the deck all the time director, came in, and after a little con- | 11 waa speaking and 1 could see by his face that ho folt it deeply. YGENERAL SHERMAN'S APPEARANCE at this time formed astrange contrast to that of the naval officers, Oaptaln Mo- Gowan, of the revenue cutter Nemaha, the man who wss in command on the Star of the West when that vessel at- tempted to supply Fort Sumpter, and General J. O. Foster and staff were In company with the force on the flag ship. All but Sherman were in full dress uniform. The naval officers wore re- splendent in gold lace and brass buttons. The revenne marine officers looked fresh and clean In thelr new clothes, and Gen. Foster and staff were out In the most gorgeous attire of thejarmy, Gen. Sher- man on the other hand was seedy and shabby. His face was bronzed by the the sun and wind of that long march, his clothing was worn out, and what waas left was dusty and frayed at the edges. “‘The army at this tlme was at Kings Bridge up the Ogeschee river, and Gen. Sherman wanted the mail taken there. He was anxions that I should get there first, in advance of the admiral’s flagship and the revenue cutter. He dircoted me to proceed to the obstructions at the mouth of the Ogeechee river. These wero piles which had been driven in to prevent any ship going up tho river. The ‘Island Olty’' was a smaller boat than the Admiral's flagship or the revenue cutter Nemaha, and when Gene- ral Sherman came on board the next morning just after daylight he told me that he wanted me to get through the ob- structions before the admiral’s flagship or the revenue catter Nemaba, on which General Foster and his staff were, and for that purpose it would be bstter for the boat to go up and hold on to the saplles’ 50 that when enough of them had been pulled out she could sllp through and go on her way to King' bridge, where the army wae. The gen- eral said: ‘I will signal over to the rice mill that yoa are here with the mail, and they will slgnal to the army, and every- body will be on the lookout for you, I want your boat to be the first boat there.” I obeyed instructions, notwithstanding the admiral, Gen, Foster and Col. Bab. cock, who had just arrived with dispatches from Gen. Grant, thought ought to glve the flag- ship precedence. The Island City squeezed through the opening in the obatractions assoon as it was posaible to do so, and proceeded to IKing’s Bridge, where more than twenty thou- sand troops were assembled to glve me welcome. No msan so humble as I ever recelved so cordial and enthusiastic a welcome, I was agaln with the soldiers I had known at forts Henry and Donelson, Nashvllle and Memphls, at Vicks- burg, Shiloh, and Chattanooga. 1 had been with them on the DMis- sigsipl River from Calro to New Or- leans, and along the railroad from Louisville to Atlanta. There I had given them all their letters from home from time to time, and here again on the term- ination of that long hatd march 1 was with my pouches full of the letters for which they had waited so long, and of which they had thought so much, The mall messengers who had been associated with me in ail the campalgns of the val- ley of the Mississippi, and who had shouldered their muskets for the march to the sea, reported to mo and the more than three hundrei sacks of mail matter was eoon ready for distribution. We had it s> arranged that it could be distributed as casily and es (ulckly as the mail of a city is distributed by carrier. 1 shall never forget THE SCENES OF THAT MAIL PELIVERY to the soldiers ot that grand army they wot their letters at the close of that memorable march., They waited for their letters with happy but anxious faces. They tora them hastily open as they were handed them, and as thoy eagerly reed thelr contents their faces rose or fell in response to the glad or sad unews which they received. Somoe of those travel-stained warriors 1 saw open an envelops and, pulting their hands to thelr eyes, step to one side and go oft to weep over the eickness or death of some of their loved onesat home, Others laughed and smiled over ¢lad tidings, and others bowed their heads and almost wept aloud., Such a scene has all the pathos of a trag- edy, mixed with the pleasura of the wild- est comedy. Good news and bad, births and deaths, fortune and failure, mixed in and out, and clasping hands went to- gether there as they do at all times and the world over.” Canr, Bartholdi's Statue of Liberty “In. lightening the Worla" will be a reminder of personal liberty for ages to come.

A Few Sigmfcant Rewards Awarded Cartis Williams' Crowd, Boecher's Variegated Views—Pros- pective Oabinet Changes—Joe MoDonald and the Unlon ~Congressional Humor, 8pecial Correspondence of Tur Dk, Wasnixotoy, D. 0., Aprll 1.—An Alabama editor has announced that Henry Ward Beecher whliic in that state recently, declared In favor of a southern man for the presidency four years hence, and named Secretary Lamar as the man, it was suggested last autumn that Beecher’s mind was slightly affected; that it was a little off its balance. This sug gostlon receives some confirmatlon from the opinion exprassed by him, as above stated, in regard to the next presldent. Beecher has the credit here of having socured the appolntment of Ed, J. Phelps as tinister to England; and It is sald Cleveland hardly knew of him be- fore. Another sop to the mugwumps; Edmund Juseen,brother-in-law to Schurz consul general, It has been announced several times, as coming from that un- selfish branch of the human specles, known as mugwumps, that they would nelther ask for offices for themselves or their friends. Can’t always tell. Per- haps it would he as well for Beecher to eschew politics and attend to the minis- try, or he may find himself as much mixed in his politics, as he has been for several years past in his theology. Speaking of Joe McDonald reminds me of a patriotic deed of his during the war, which was related to me weile en- gagod in missionary work In Indlana lnst autumn. The *‘Knights of the Golden Circle” in that state formed a conspiracy to liberate the rebel prisoners confined in camp near Indlanapolis, arm them, take possession of the city, make Gov. Morton a prisoner, overthrow the state govern- ment, and organize another as an adjunct to the southern confederacy. It was pro- posed to McDonald to take a hand In it, but he indignantly refused, and went at once to Gov. Morton and informed him what was going on. The governor made ample preparations to give them an un- expected reception. When the tratn ap proached the clty bearing several hun- dred of the conspirators who expacted to be joined by as many more there, they were greatly surprised to sen several regi- ments of union troops drawn up, and bat- teries planted in positions to rake the train fore and aft. Their courage eud- denly failed them, and they hustled out of the cars pell mell, runniog dbwn to Pogue's run, and throwing their guns and pistols, scattered in all direc- tlons. Tho consplrators had previoasly sent t> Indianapolis by freight a lot of boxes marked “‘bibles” and ‘‘Sunday school books,” directed to thelr friends in the clty, but which they did not dare to take away from tho frelght house, they know- ing what the boxes contained. When they were opened, they were found to filled with guns and pistols, Judging by their doings and Intentiona theie scquaintance with bibles and school books must havo been only In name; and when the doings and policies of the dem ocratic party for the last twenty-five yesrs ars passed In review, onc can scarzely refeain from thinklng the last re- mark niight have a mucn wider applica- tion. This act of McDonald deaws forth & vory frlendly feeling from me. I am not a prophet, or the son of a prophet, but, nevertheless, the prediction 1 ventured that the present cabinet will not remain lorg Intact in its present shape, Lamar is naturally, and con- stitutionally indolent, likes lLis easc; but he is the head of a branch of the gov- ernment which involves hard work and protracted toil, perhaps as much, ormore 80, than any other branch of the gov- ernment. He will soon tire of it, and will take a forelgn mission, Into that vacancy, more than likely, my frlends of whom I have been writing, “*Old Sad- dlebags,” as some deslgnate him, Joe McDonald will probably walk, Mr. Hen- dricks to the contrary notwith- standing. It is the ambition of Aitorney General Garland to occupy ® seat upon the bench of the supreme court of the United States. 1f a vacancy should occur there, it may be expected that Garland will be 4 selected to fill it. This will vpen the way for the Wisconsin staterman, Col. Vilas, whose ambition is to ba attorney general, and he will get there whenever Garland vacates; and this may open the door for my friend, Dr. Miller, to walk into the postmaster general’s cflice, Some people here, affected witn Acglophobia, Frenchophobia or some other kind of rables, ‘are trying to intro- duce a new twang to the name of the postmester, generally by proncuncing it veelas, thinking that more tony; but the postmaster general says his name is Vilas, and he ought to know. This re- minds me of Wm., Ware Peck, whom Hayes sent ont to be judgo {n Wyoming, of whom thia 1s related: He was holding court at Green Rlver on one occasion, and when a witness took the stand, the attorney asked him his name, he replicd, “John G. Shadrack.” The court: ‘‘Stop, slr, your name is not Shadrack, It 1s shedrick.” The witness: My father alway spelled and pronounced his name Shadrack.” Judge: “Well, I tell you, the name Shadrack which we find ia the Bible, in connection with Meeehek and Iothebed- wego.” Witness: *‘I think I'ought to know how to spell and pronounce my own name.” Judge: ‘“‘Fined ten dollars for con- tempt of court, sir.” This is the judge who was asslgned by an act of the Wyoming leglslatare, passed unanimously by both hous ve one vote, to what was known as the rage brush district, having few Inhabltants, though now quite populous, and for slgn- ing which the writer suffered martyrdom at the bands of the late Ratherford Bur chard Hayes, president of the United States. By the way, did you know that Ruth- erford Burchard Hayes and the late Dr, Burchard, now deceased, (in one sense) of alliterative memory, are cousing? When that ralationship was made knowa to me, it was not difficult to account for that dreadful faux pas. Mr, Hendricks had one little offioe under his complete snd unquestioned control, that of messenger to the vice president, In order to promote reform, the V, P, becomes convinced that it is imperatively necessary for him to remove the old messenger, and to appolnt In his stead his ows nephew; and thereby re- form is promoted. The chief of the dead-lotter divislon of the postoffice de. partment, a falthfal officer, is removed to make room for the son-Indaw of Sen- ator ('ul«}nit of Georgla; all In the Inter- eat of reform, The hamoriats of the house have gone, have left to return no more, at least for an Indefinite time. The walls and the arches of that hall will no more resound to the uproarous laughter Indaced by the flashing scintillations of thelr wit, ‘“Sun- set’ Cox, Horr of Michigan, Belford of the Rockles, and Tom Ochiltrce of Toxas, will be missed, but “Thongh loat to sight, To memory dear,” they can ba sar- vived s jesters, they wore not without good; they contributed to relleving the monotony of deba'e, and to arousing slooplng members, for their obtaln the floor was always a eignal for atten- tlon, It is a misfortane for ene to ac quire the reputation of beirg psr excel lence, & wlit, so much fs expected of him, he is supposed to be surcharged with the article at all times, Cox appreciated thie, and once sald his repatation In that respect had been a drawback to him, be- cause whenever he rose to spesk, some- thing fanny was always expected from him, and that would oftentimes tsmpt him to try to be fanny when he was not in the mood for it, for he sometimes de- sired to talk serlously: Proctor Kuott achleved a widereputation by his Du. lath speech in the hou in which he spoieof Duluth asthe ‘“zenith clty of the unsalted seas,” a, very pretty thought; but he aftorwards expressed regrot that he ever made the speech, for the reputatlon it gave him, created the expectation that he would over afterwards continuo to play that role, which was not congenlal to his feelings to do; and I think he never es- sayed It agaln while in the house, and now probably has not the opportunity while serving as governor of Kentucky. Cox could talk sense as well as fun, and, outslide of politles, generally advanced correct viows. Ho was ready and apt in debate and not slow to cross swords witn any one; but that “Shoo-fly” speech of Ben. Butler was too much for him, he was completely annihilated for the time, It will be remembered he was making a speech rasping Butler severely; the latter took it all withoat fliuching, and waited his time. Notlclng Cox was drawing to a close, Ben threw a glance from that cockeyo of his upon Cox fora moment, and then turned his head away as if the vory sight of him was offensive, and throwing his left hand in a most expres- sive and contemptuous manner, as 1f he was waving Cox Into nonenlty, uttered the line from the doggerel, which was in the mouths of all the street gamins at the time, 7and with all the derision and contempt of manner he could throw in the words, “Shoo fly, don’t bodder me" The houze dissolved itself for awhile Into uncontrol- lable laughter. It was to Cox asifa cannon ehot had strack him; he wascom- pletoly floored; and many, who had met the stlng of his saroarm and ridicule, looksd with complacency upon his dis- comfiture, Cox lost his temper—was mad, furlously mad, and began to reply by denecuncing Butler for having called him a contemptible insect (Cox is very small in stature), which made the matter worse for him, and the house again gave way to unrestrained mirth. A good one is told ¢f Tom Ochiltres; though, posstbly, your readers may have heard it. Tom went through the form of studylng law, was admitted to the bar, and nominally entered into parthership wlth his father, who was an able lawyer; but Tom wae no law; nd would not study or stay in the oflice. At one time, when hls father wa> absent at court in another county, the idea flashed across Tom’s mind that there ought to be a new slgn, denoting the partnership, the father's old tin sign being still in its place upon the side of the door of the office. Tom removed that, and caused a new one to be placed ovor the door. The father returned, and, upon golng to his offics, was somewhat surprised to read the new sign in flaming lettera: “THOMAS P, AND ATTORNEY FATHER, Tom will now have leisure to chase the wild Comanche bronchos over the Texas plaing; the ‘‘red-headed rooster” can now soar high and fiip his wings upon the summits of his own Rockies; the re- tired Michigander can now meditate in peace upon the dissolving views of con- grressional honors, on the quite shores of Lake Michizan, while our own ‘“Sunget will crook hls knees under the sullan’s rosewood, quafl sherbet to the memory of the prophet, and teach tho gultan of all | Sav the faithful how to laugh, as he descants |} to him upon the beauties and glories of i Tammany. 'WEEN THE PRESIDENT AND HIS ARY OF THE TREASURY, Samuel L. Southard, an eminent citl zent in hie day, wassecretary of the navy under James Monroe, and was coutinued as such by John Quincy Adams.
