PEARCE AND FLEET?I WHERE THE TOILERS AND THE MOILERS EAT IN LONDON. Hart KenutMly Describe# h lifmtaurant Where a Meal Can 1U* I!:i«l For B C«‘i»t!*. Tl»<* DritUH Workingman at Close Hsinge. A Place Where All Are Suspected* | Special Correspondence. ] London, March 35 —Pcarco'i rostanTnnt stands on tho corner of Waterloo road and New t’uf, in tho parish of Lambeth. It is patronized solely by the very poor, for this is tho southeast part of this mighty London and is lived in by sccrroly any ono save mechanics, laborers and others whoso lot it is to work tho life out to keep tho life in. To tho right as you go into the res- | taurant is a gn at counter, behind which the cooking is done and the orders attended to. (lirls do tho cooking, and two frowsy looking boys net ns waiters. The tables at which tho people sit and eat have marble tops, tho reason of which, I suppose, is becanso they are easy to clean. They aro sot in rows through high wooden stalls. All For a Pennj. Hern you cau get things very cheap. For a penny you can get a thick slice of bread and butter and a cup of cofTco or tea or cocoa. For threepence you can get a rasher of bacon and an egg. For a penny you will got a grilled herring, for 3 halfpence a grilled haddock. A piece of currant cake is a halfpenny. Yorkshire pudding is a penny. A plate of roast beef and potatoes is fourpouce. And so it goes. Sixpence will get you all you wish to eat. Tho quality is not the best in the world, but to tho people that come here quantity is the thing. Hanging above tho main door is tho sign, “Pearco and Plenty.” It is a bad pun, to bo sure, but to tho heart of tho English from high to low tho pun is very dear. The point is on the face of it, so to speak, and necessarily doesn’t Tak' > long to find out. Li;tie school lads come here at noon and get a halfpenny cup of tea or coffee or cocoa, as tho caso may be, to drink along with their lunch. Now and then two of them will share a single cup together, each drinking from tho saucer in turn. They range from 5 to 10 years old, and somo of their heads hardly reach to tho top of tho counter when they aro giving their orders. Their lunch, which usually consists of a couple of slices of bread and bnttor, is given them by their mothers in tho morning before they leave for school. This is wrapped up in paper and stowed away in the biggest jacket pocket along with marbles, string, a peg top and
wnere you get yonr mi nrst anti pay tno cashier afterward. No, indeed. The London business principle, at least this phase of it, appears to bo that a man is a thief till you have found out that ho is not, and even then that it is as well to treat him as one, so as to be on the safe side. And here I may say in passing that suspicion and general distrust of every ono appear to be the keynote of the character of London's lowest class. A stranger is looked upon as a wolf seeking those that he may devour. If he goes to look for lodgings, the landlady surveys him from head to foot in that timid, shuddering way which belongs to those that have lived their lives in the midst of meanness, squalor and grinding down of soul and spirit. A woman stranger gets no earthly show at all. Half past 6 in the morning is a busy j time for this restaurant. Then it is ' thronged with workingmen, young and j old, who have to bo at their work by (I j o’clock, and who drop in on their way | to get a hot cup of coffee and to take a bite of bread. Tho business done at this time is the least paying of the whole day, for then all the men bring their j own bread along, just as the school lads i do at noon. All that they need is a halfpenny cup of coffee, for this is not their regular breakfast It is only a sort of temperance cocktail—a physical bracer of tlie moral order. Breakfast time for them is from H to half past N o'clock, when they till np the place again, with more paying results for tho proprietor.
Quality of the Food.
The order most in vogue at this time ' is for a rasher of bacon, a fried egg, two slices of bread and butter and a large cup of coffee. This conies to livepence. I must say that tho rasher and egg are delicious, for I have tried them. - They are just as good as what you oan ! get on tho Strand for live times tho price. Hut tho coffee is villainous. Yu gods! I defy the most expert chemist alive to give me the small change of it. It seems to me to bo a sort of blend between tea that has been overboiled, ink and a suspicion of stale coffee grounds. The bread, however, was good, but the butter, which had been spread thinly over it beforehand with a knife, was on the same piano of excellence with the coffee. Baht Kennedy.

POSTMASTER GENERAL BISSELL.
He !•* Popular In HufYalo ami >\’a* Well
Liked by Yale College Students.
[Special Correspondence. ]
Buffalo, April 1.—Tho resignation of W. S. Bissoll, which, when it takes effect, will add tlie prt lix “ex” to the title of postmaster general, lias set a lot of his Buffalo acquaintances to telling stories of Ins younger days. Although he was born in Out ida county, his parents moved here when ho was 5 or 0 years old, and much of his boyhood was
therefore passed in this city.
His middle name being Shannon, he was always called Shan by his schoolmates, with whom ho was very popular, and he is remembered by many middle aged nu n hero who knew him then as being tall and st"Ut for his age, with a face in which tho red glow of health was always prominent. Ilis best friend was Bon Lander. Lander sat next him
at school, and tho homos of
heard of Vermont s famous Morgan horses 1 through tho enemy’s right flank ami
thrown Rosser's column off on the flank, separating it from tho Confederate In-
fantry.
The lines of tho enemy rested along tlie Union breastworks on the north bank of Cedar creek, and (ieneral Sheridan ordered Custer to charge the breastworks, swing to tlie left and secure what he could. But so rapid wore tlie Confederates in their progress to the rear, that before this movement could bo executed they were nearly all safely across the creek ami but fe.v prisoners were secured. Colonel Wells, with the First Vermont, moved down through a narrow wooded ravine which led to a ford across Cedar creek. Cap.am Watson, commanding the first squadron, rode across, and finding tho enemy still retreating, called Ids men over, and they advanced, skirmishing, until they reached a stone wall, about (iO rods from the creek, where they received a volley from some of Pegram’s infantry who had rallied nml were endeavoring toforni Isliiiid tho wall. Captain Watson was severely wounded in the shoulder, and tlie squad-on halted until the remainder of the n giment came up. Just ns the formation was completed General Custer came, up with the Fifth New York cavalry, which was all the force that could then b.) spared from the first brigade to assist the Vermonters, now more than a mile from any support. The situation was desperate, and not a moment was to be lost. Ten thousand veteran infantry were within rifle range, and al-

bites.
The men and big boys that come hero at noon are nearly all covered with the grime and blackness of tlie neighboring workshops. Like the school lads, some of them bring along their own lunches. All comers have the privilege of doing this if they give an order at tho counter, however small. A Deadly Monotony. They aro a strange, haggard looking people, theso London toilers. Tho wear and tear of life in this city of cities show in their faces. They have that peculiar eager look which belongs to certain habitual dwellers in all great cities —that look which presages the horror of revolution. In the restaurant they talk over tho affairs of tlie workshop and its relation to themselves—what they aro doing, how they aro doing it, bow much a week they get and so on. If you say a word to them of America, however, they listen eagerly. They look upon it as a desirable land for tho workingman, and they long to go to it. I And that the fact of their hearing bad r(*ports about it now and then doesn't bother thoni at all. I guess the real cause of the wish
boys were adjoining. With a third, Horace Parmelee, they built a flat bot- ! tomed boat, from which they used to fish for hours in tho waters of Niagara
river.
In their fondness for fishing theso boys were like most others, but Sban and B n had ono other amusement, not unique, it is true, but still not adopted by many. It was keeping a menagerie. This menagerie was located back of the Lander home. It consisted of snakes and turtles, a woodchuck, a flying squirrel and quite an extensive collection of white and field mice. Theso mammals and reptiles were kept in a lot of old barrels and boxes, and their careoccupied a good deal of time on tho part of botli boys. Sometimes Hhan used to take baby snakes with him to school in his pockets, but whether he was over thrashed for doing this is not of record. In the summer time the boys were wont to make long expeditions to the woods near Buffalo for the purpose of hunting up specimens to add to their collection. After leaving tlie ward school at the ago of 13 young Bissell was prepared for college at the Hopkins Grammar school in New Haven He entered Yale at tho age of 15. He was then 5 feet 10 inches tail, and in a letter to Horace Parmelee which is still preserved he mentioned the fact that every one told him ho was growing and announced his height in an underscored paragraph. In college lie was v< ry popular, being made a member of the "spoons” committee of his class and of tho Skull and Bonos secret society. The importance of this latter, from tho students' standpoint, will bo understood by the non-Yale man when I explain that but three members of each class aro allowed to join the so-
ciety.
In spite of tho fact that most people associate cigarette smoking with slen-
ami was familiar with the military record of the Green Mountain boys, who have always been among the first on every field, j Ho believed that a combination of these two elements would make a cavalry regiment not to be excelled and determined that the experiment should bo tried. The state legislature made no provision for the enlistment of mounted men, and tho regiment was raised under the direct authority of the war department. In 43 days it was ready for the field, tho first full cavalry from New Kngland. Its brilliant charge at Gettysburg was one of the most desperate of the whole war, well do serving to he immortalized like that of the
Bight brigade at Balaklavo.
The First Vermont, with other regiments of Farnsworth's brigade, early on the morning of July 8, took position on the wooded hills southwest of Big Hound Top in front of the enemy’s main line. The portion of this line nearest to the First Vermont was hew by tho First Texas infantry, while Bachman’s and Reilly's batteries were stationed on tlie east side of the pike and supported by the Seventh and Ninth Georgia Infantry. Tho ground between tho lines and in rear of the Confederate position was rough mid broken in tlie extreme. The natural obstacles in the shape of rocks and bowlders were supplemented by fences of rails nnd stone, and when General Farnsworth received orders to advance ids brigade on that ground ho gave the opinion that it was » desperate thing to take mounted men into such u place. General Kilpatrick replied that the orders were imperative and that if Farnsworth did not care to | lead Ids men in tho charge lie would do it himself. Farnsworth replied that ho was not afraid to go as far as any man and that ho could load Ids men where any ono could. He selected as tho assaulting column the second battalion of tho First Vermont, under Major William Wells, and tho First West Virginia, under Colonel Richmond. Blaring himself by Major Wells' side at tho bond of column, he led it forward through a piece of woods to an open field a little to tho left of the First Texas, where it received a heavy fire from the enemy’s skirmish lino as it forced a way through. Crossing the first Held and Inap-

on toward 1 Devil's Den."
Meanwhile Kilpatrick, who saw that Farnsworth's patii was besot on all sides, ordered tho remainder of the regiment to his support. Taking Captain Bnrson's Third battalion and Captain Grovers squadron of tho First battalion, Colonel Preston moved at a gallop down the narrow farm road until ho found it blocked with a barricade of fallen trees. Turning into an open field on the right of tho road, Colonel Preston formed column and charged down upon the Confederate skirmish line, strongly posted behind a stone wall nnd concealed by a hedge of wild bushes. Over tho wall, pellmell, wont Preston and his followers, riding plump upon a Confederate regiment that had been hurried to tho spot where Farnsworth charged through for tho purpose of cutting off his retfeat. Saber in hand tho Vermonters cut their way forward, taking many prisoners, who, ns a matter of form, were ordered to the rear. Of course they

Shortly after this tho two columns united, and tho little band of less than 400 men pressed on to w'at seemed certain anni hilation. Farnsworth’s horse was shot under him, but ho was again remounted.

though broken and dispirited for tho time, they might, in a very few minutes, prepare successfully to resist a very much stronger force. The First Vermont was on the light, nnd the Fifth New York on tho left of tlie pike. As soon ns the ground was favorable both regiments quickened tin gait to a trot, and when within siiort pis tol range charged the enemy simultaneous ly upon Ids front and flank. Hearing the "charge” sounding from tlie cavalry bugles, tho enemy stood only long enough to fire one volley, iiud then attempted to escape under cover of the gathering darkness. Tlie pike soon became blocked with Wagons, forges and ambulances, all striving to pet to tho rear in the shortest possi bio time. When about a mile from the bridge, tho First Vermont captured u piece of artillery, tho first taken by tho Union army on that day. General Custer, after telling tlie Vermonters that ho would be satisfied with them if they got a single gun, had stopped to direct tho movements of the remainder of tlie division. Colonel Wells nnd his command were not contented with one gun, but continued tho advance at a sharp trot. Owing to the dark ness nnd unovoidahlo delays nt the fords, tho other regiments expected by Custer tailed to reach him in time to assist or even overtake the two regiments, which ! wore soon far on the way to Strasburg.
In the mad rush no time nnd but few

Tho trophies of tho two regi- ! monts consisted of live colors and 45 guns, | besides numerous caissons nnd ambulances nml about 1,000 prisoners. Of the 43 guns captured by tho I'nlon forces in this battle .'3. or but ono less than half, were accorded to the Vermont regiment.
