Some of the Interesting Stories Told Here Last Week.
THE LETTER FROM COLONEL JAMES BIDDLE-.
Col. Crain's Description of the Debut of th.e 85 til in War— The Sixtb.'s History.
Dr. Spots wood exhibited to the comrades at the reunion an impression in wax taken from the stump used by the Washington family and from the identical stump
UBed
by General Washing
ton. It was interesting to all and especially so as the doctor called attention to the fact that there was not a reasonable doubt that the design of the American flag was taken from this seat. The bars and stars are discernable plainly on the seat, and the doctor's idea of the original of this design is certainly a happy one. He procured this impression of the seal from Spotswood A. Washington who had procured it from George Alexander Spotswood. The latter was a commander of General Washington's body guard. The family relationship of the Washington's and Spotwood's led to the acquisition of the relic.
James Biddle, late colonel of the Sixth cavalry and now lieutenant colonel of the Fifth United States cavalry, was unable to attend the reunion on account of official duties, but addrsssed a letter to Dr. Spotswood that was read to the comrades Sixth and greatly appreciated by them.
WAR DEPARTMENT, WASHINGTON,
August 13,1888.
I wish you would convey to my old comrades one and all, my highest esteem and respect—and in my army life I have yet to see a body of officers more superior to the Eleventh in all the military duty required of them. Wishing you all a most happy reunion, I am ever truly yours,
JAMES KIDDLE.
Lieut. Col. 5th U. S. Cav., late Col. 6th Ind. Cav. Colonel A. B. Crain narrated the debut of the Eighty-iiifth regiment into war in a very interesting manner He said the first order they received after being unloaded in a potato patch near the army, was from some unknown major general saying: "Protect those potatoes." To this, Colonel J. P. Baird, then in command, replied: "The potatoes harvested." Next came an inquiry from same askin the calibre of their guns. Baird nor Grain neither knew what the calibre of a gun was. Neither they nor the men knew the first thing of military movements. Then they were ordered to make their requisition for anamination. But, before they had oypotunity they were ordered to march into the left fsont. They straggled out into the lane behind the regiment they were ordered to follow, were approached by some officer with many aids who asked what, regiment and whether they were ordered left in front or right in front. No one in the regiment knew what that meant but Colonel Crain answered "right in front." The accosting horseman auswered in a voice that seemed like thunder "How in the h—1 do you expect to get right in front? Counter march your regiment sir!" Captain Frank Crawford then said they must put their music in the rear of the regiment and that would fix it. Presently some officer came their way and told them to put their music in the front and was curtly requested to go to They were next asked how many rounds of amunition they had and answered "none." "Then how in the do you expect to fight?" "We don't expect to fight sir," answered Colonel Crain. "March your regiment out of line, sir!" They did so. They were desperate. No knowledge of tactics, no guns of any account, no amunition and not knowing what to do. But they immediately began to inquire and got along quite well.
Dr. Spotswood tells very interesting story that is important as matter of history. It is concerning the Sixth Indiana cavalry. This regiment was first known as the Seventy-first Indiana infantry. At, midnight of the 18th day of August, 1802, the Seventy-first infantry was addressed by Governor Morton telling them that they could not be required to proceed farther in the war without more pay. They answered as one man, "We came not to fight for money but for the country, we'll go." Twelve days afterward they had arrived at the fields of battle, and at once engaged in the battle of Richmond, Ivy. There a mistaken order brought the regiment into the right part of the front lines, whereas they should have been in the front. They were, therefore, ordered on the double quick to the left, notwithstanding that shot from rebel artillery was ploughing through their. ranks while making the change. Yet they kept steadily on, reformed and took their proper station. At this juncture retreating Union troops came flocking back upon them and although the Seventy-first was very imperfectly drilled, and unaccustomed to battle, they held their ground and protected the reformation of those retreating. By this time all of their officers had been killed, and they were being shot down by scores in their tracks. The enemy so far outnumbered the Union troops there that the latter were surrounded by the swinging round of the right and left wings of the enemj', and the slaughter became more terrible. The Seventy-first, having no officers, became partly mingled with an Ohio regiment. In this battle the Seventh lost 100 prisoners, 21 1 killed and 200 cut through the enemies ranks after being surrounded. They were never known as a regiment afterward. They returned to Indiana and were reorganized into the Sixth cavalry. This was about the time that the Knights of the Golden Circle became known in this state and there was great solicitude for fear that these traitors had gotten into the Indiana troops in the field. On this account Governor Morton requested President Lincoln to allow some Indiana regiment that was known to be loyal to remain at Indianapolis. Accordingly, Governor Morton prevailed upon Mr. Speed, a brother of President Lincoln's attorney general and who had also been President Lincoln's room-mate for six years, to acoompany him to the president and make the request. Their desire was granted and the Sixth cavalry was selected by the governor on account of their known and tested loyalty to the cause. This completely explains away a cloud that has shadowed the Sixth cavalry ever sinc« the war. The regiment knew not why they were detained at Indianapolis so long, and
outsiders attributed the cause, by inti mation, at least, to the supposed inferiority of the regiment. But the contrary was the true reason.
The following letter was read and commented upon by Colonel A. B. Crain last Saturday night at the camp fire. It was written by Wm. M. Jackman, of the Eighty-fifth regiment, at a time when a general order prevailed that forbid all granting of furloughs. Colonel Crain copied from the original letter and had preserved the copy since the war as a treasure he valued very highly. He said that the contents exhibited the wonderful penatrative ability of President Lincoln, who 8aw behind the letter the true soldier that wrote it and also the uprightness of the soldier himself. We publish the letter verbatim:

President Lincoln's disposal of the letter is shown by the following endorsements that were on the inverse side of the letter sheet:

SORE MOM KNEE TO ANKLE.
Skin entirely gone. Flesh a mass of Disease'. Leg diminished one-third In size. Condition hopeless. Cured by the Cut! cura Remedies.
For three years I was almost crippled with an awful sore leg from my knee down to my ankle the skin was entirely gone, and the flesh was one mass of disease. Some physicians pronounced lt incurable. It had diminished about one-third the size of the other, and I was In a hornless condl tlon. After trying all kinds of remedies .ind spending hundreds of dollars, from which I got no relief whatever, I was persuaded to try your Cuticura Remedies, and the result was as follows: After three days I noticed a decided change for the better, and at the end ot two months I was completely cured. My flesh was puritled, and the bone (which had been exposed fer over a year) got sound. The flesh began to grow, and to-day, and for nearly two years past, my leg Is as well as ever it was. sound In every respect, and not a sign of the disease to be seen.

Constitutional Catarrh.
No single disease has entailed more suffering or hastened the breaking up of the constitution than Catarrh. The sense of smell, of taste, of sight, of hearing, the human voice, the mind,—one or more, and sometimes all, yield to Its destructive Influence. The poison lt distributes throughout the system attacks every vital force, and breiks up the most robust of constitutions. Ignored, because but little understood, by most physicians, lmpotently assailed by quacks and charlatans, those suffering from lt have little hope to be relieved of it this side of the grave. It is time, then, that the popular treatment of this terrible disease by remedies within the reach of all passed Into hands at once competent and trustworthy. The new and hitherto untried method adopted by pr. San ford In the preparation of his Radical Cure has won the hearty approval of thousands. It Is Instantaneous In affording relief In all head colds, sneezing, snuffling and obstructed breathing, and rapidly removes the most oppressive symptoms, clearing the head, sweetening the breath, restoring the senses of smell, taste and bearing, and neutralizing the constitutional tendency of the disease towards the lungs, liver and kidneys.
