A Chapter from I lie Personal History ot Our Frealitrut-Ilia Accidental Promo- lion by Fremont-Ill* I>rnnkenn< Never lorgct. a Friend ora I'nvor. N. Y. Coirespondenoe of the Missouri Republican] In 18.14 Lieutenant V. B. Grant was the quar termaster nf tho Fourth infantry, stationed al Vancouver's Island, on the Pacific ooast. Al fred-Pleasanton was lieutenant of dragoons, and Unfoa Ingalls wss'lba quartermaster of the poet- Grant bsd been addicted to drink to that extent that ho had been several times cautioned by bis friends, and he finally, to prevent trouble, and as e guarantee of future abstinence, plac et his resignation in the hands of Colonel liucbauan, to be tued in ease of another dis graceful spree. Soon after this Grant wont to Kan Francisco, and while there got on another “tear," and overstayed hisleavj, being sednoed by Ibo wonderful temptations and fascinations of the Occidental city, so noted for its wonder ful and crcidenta! changes of fortnne end life. When he returned to his poet he found, much to his snrprise and mortification, that bis dis sipation lmd become known, and bis resignation had Isien forwarded with sneb an indorsement U secured its immediate acceptance. In dno course of time Grant becamo e private citizen. He was now in a bed fix. Impecu- nions, despondent, be tried to drown bis sorrows in the I!owing bowl. Pleasonton and Ingalls were warm personal friends of “Bam" Grant, and together they “staked" Mm, so as to enable him to reach the State via Fenaroa. Uo pro ceeded to St. honis, and there lived the life of a vagabond of tho first wator loafing about the city, alternating between the city and old Dent's farm, several miles out of tbe city. At this lime General William H. Hillyer anil General itaalinn were in lmaiucsa together as counsel lors and attorneys at law. end Grant tued to make their ronius a sort of headqnnrton, drop ping tn almost every day, and passing honrs aim bis feet cocked on the table or a chair, en joying his inevitable smoko and no lose pleasant chat. In Ibis way ibo frieudabip for Rawlins and lliliyer became oomeiited, and this accounts for their n< led ion on Grant's personal staff when lie became a brigadier-general. Every one known bow Dick Yates, then Gov ernor of Illinois, took him forhia military soare- tary, and afterwarda gnvo him tho colonelcy of an insubordinate regiment which had beon tried by two or three eoloneis, who were unable to sntalne their riotous and mutinous disposition Grant soon straightened them ont anil demon strated bia value as a disciplinarian. Being sent to the department of Missouri, then undor the command of Goneral J. O. Fremont, Grant was assigned to Goneral John Pope's command, and was the senior colonel in that army. On one occasion Popo bad business away, and Grant, as senior officer, was in tbo command. On l’opo'a return be found Grant in bis headquar ters tent, writing and tloing sneh business as was inoident to his eommand. Pope, with that brasqneneas and disoonrtesy for which ho was noted, said to Grant that he wished he wonld do bis writing in his own lent and not intrnde himself so maoh at headquarters. Naturally indignant, Grnnt wrathfully stepped ont and proceeded to tho tent of the sntior, with whom ha was very intlmato. and whose whisky he bad drank ml libitum. To this bosom friend he imnred ont all his woes, and as bo sipped his "Honrlion straight,” he vindictively ejaonlated: “ I hope I shall livo to sao tho day when I shall outrank General Pope 1” Ho outrageous did bo hocomo in his cups, that Pope finally found it neoeasary to send him to St. Bonis, with a re commendation that he should be dismissed for drunkenness. Although Mr. Lincoln had plaoed almost autocratie power in the hands of General Fremont, he hesitated to dismiss him, and let his osse bang on from day to day, awaiting a leisure moment to give the matter his personal attention. Meanwhile Grant loafed abont St Louis, neglected, impecunious, and shabby, dancing attendance at headquarters every day in tho hope of a speedy settlement of his diffi culty. At this lime tho enemy were advancing upon Cape Girardeau, which was then occupied by new torios, undisciplined, and undrilled, under the command or General Prentiss of Illinois. Owing to Prentiss's want of experience Fremont deemed it advisable to supercede him, but in the absonoo of other more experienced offloera the General hardly knew whom to select to relieve him. While he was in this quandary a gentleman oegqy-qlug a high official position, in whom Freu * " ''"at confidence, called to see him one' ' C A passed op stalls he saw Grant in the «hg ou a wooden bench. Grant's red f*o<. A over his woolen shirt, dirty and tobaooo-Mained. Ho bad no oollar, hie uniform tree greasy and shabby, and alto gether he presented a miserable and vroe-begone appearanoe. Tho gentleman referred to reoog- ntzed him, and ae be ebook hands he asked whet he was doing there ? Grant replied that he wee in a litUe tronble, “and," aaid he, “I want yon to help me ont.” Tbe difficulty wee related by Grant, and hie friend said he wonld see what could bo done, after which he passed np stairs to the presence of the great Pathfinder. Caring tbe conversation, Fremont mentioned the Capo Girardeau difficulty, and said ho did not know who to aond there. “I know the very man yon want,” said our friend, “I saw him down stairs as I came up.” “Who ia he?’ inquired Fre mont “Why, Bam Grant; he’a just the man; send him down.” Fremont called hia adjutant general and asked him what the circumstances of Grant's ease were, and he was informed. “Ob yea, I know,” aaid tho other. “Sam iaa drunkard; but ho will fight, aud ho knows how to do it, too." "But” aaid Fremont “they all rank him down there.” “Send every d—d one of them away, and pnt Grant in command. He’ll fight I know.” So Fremont somewhat unwillingly, and for want of a better man, oonaented to the ordor being issued. Gn bis way down stain Grant's friend took him along, and aa he entered hia boggy ho ask. ed Grant where he was stopping. "Nowhere,” said Grant “Where is your baggage?" he asked. “I haven't any,” said Grant. “Tbat'it a bad lookout; come with me,” and he took Grant to the Planten' Honae, straight- ened him np, got hia transportation for him, and inside of ten honrs, had him started for Cape Girardeau by special train. As was ex pected, hit seniors kicked against bia aasum- ing the command. At this time. President Lincoln was determined in tie opposition to the invasion of Kentnuky, oven though the enemy wero ooenpying her soil and marehing upon onr forces. He persisted in considering Kentucky aa nentra] ground. As the enemy ad vanced upon Grant, another General was or dered by Fremont to ent across a corner of Kentucky, and cut him off from his base, while Grant was to attack him in front. This Gon eral, instead of obzwing hie orders, telegraphed them to Lincoln, who countermanded them at once. Grant, however, like a true soldier, obeyed the orders from his superior, and ad vancing into Kentucky, met tbe enemy and ronted him. This laid the foundation of hia^AIsoon military fame, and was tho drat step on the" ladder by which he reached hie present proud position. And hers it might be said, en par. rant, that it ia to Fremont that Grant owes hia delivery from obscurity, and not, aa to many suppose, to Washburns entirely. The Presi dent recognises this fact, and now entertains the very kindliest feelings for Fremont. Only a short time ago, at one pi the Washington levees. Grant walked across tbe room to where Mia. Fremont stood, and asked if he might have the pleasure of tendering to her eon, who stood by her aide, a cadetship to West Point, and adding that he knew of no one whose fami ly were more justly entitled to it, through dis tinguished aervioes to tbe oountry. Mrs. Fre mont exiled the General to her side and the ap pointment was accepted. Tuia anecdote is •imply to abow the cordiality existing between them now. Every one who knows tbe President, knows that whatever his faults may be, he xxvn ronarrs a meat os a tavos. A* soon aa he became a brigadier-general, he called to Ha personal staff tho lawyers In whoso offioe he had been ao hospitably treated before the war, and Hillyer and Bawlins rose to rank and position aa fast as Grant did himself. It was this old friendship which mado Bawlins Secre tary of War, and which created tho military ring whieh now roles the roost. Ingalls, through af fection, aa weli aa by the forco and weight of hia ability, ia now tho great power behind the Ihroae, and the chief mogul of the military ring. Horaoe Potter, the President's private ty, is the constant companion of General Grant wherever ho goes, end he is the faithful watch dog who guards the approaches to the Executive, and barks when thero ia danger to the ring. At hie bey Ingalls harries to tbo rescue, and the danger is averted. Pleasanton owed his rapid promotion to Grant's friendship, and his eleva tion to the eomtniasionerahip of internal reve nue to the influence of Gen. Ingalls, bat failing to acknowledge their supremacy in everything, and unwilling to follow their instructions in cer tain particulars, he was decapitated with the same easy nonchalance with whieh be was pro moted. Pleasanton can not now aaid to belong to the ring, and he ia taken np aa a martyr by the opposition, or Greeley-Fenton ring of the party here. lo galls and the rest have dropped him, and even refuse to recognize him socially. Tho influence of tho military ring pervades every department of the Federal government in this city. Honest Tom Morphy was the prin cipal organizer of the first Grant campaign club in this city in the summer of 1867. He lost no time in “shadowing” Porter. Thomas gives great many presents and has a very main ua tin;; manner. He eaptnred Porter and cultivate!. the acquaintance. There was a real estate ring at Long Branch; Morphy bad some, ao did John Chamberlin, the prince of gamblers; did John Hoey, of Adams Express, who was once tbe cutest newsboy that ever yelled an “extra.” Some way or another tbo President got sandwitchcdin between Morphy and Porter, and it was there, in the “cottage by the sea,” daring tbe summer of 1869, that Murphy and Potter went for Moses Grinncll'a aoalp. Grin- nell had furnished tbe sinews of war daring tbe campaign, and being one of the oldeat mer chants of tbe city of New York, felt secure in bis position as collector of tho port Colonel George Leet was mastered out of tho United States army, August 1, 1870. Ha was on Gen. Grant's staff, and was Porter's intimate friend and oom panion. Leet bad to be provided for. He would have left the army before if Grinnell could have been induced to give him tbe entire general order business of the port; bnt Grin- noil wonld not Tbe monopoly of that business was a fraud on tbo merchants of New York and Grinnell positively refused. Grinnell was re moved, and tbe first set of Honest Tom was to bestow tho whole monopoly of tbe general order of business upon Leet and Stocking. Colonel Stocking was another member of the military ring, and extremely intlmato with Loot. This was tbe greatest frand ever perpetrated on the importers of New York, and is not only felt by them, bnt, tbrongh the increased oost of importation and the necessary increase of price of goods, by oonsnmors all over the oonn- try. Tbe general order business on tbe North Biver had formerly been distributed among six stores at different points, and when a vessel was discharging general order goods they wero sent to the nearest one of those stores, which was generally a short distance away, and carmen eonld get their loads and get bade with very little dolay, and bo able to “ride" several loads a day, charging at tho rate of fifty cents for the first half mile and one-third more for each sub sequent half mile. Now, nndor Leet and Stock ing, the business of these eix stores is consoli dated into one, and carta are obliged to stand honrs to get their loads after carting them miles more than was formerly the esse. Besides this, these military satraps are auto cratic and aristocratic. They don't open their stores till 8 i. x, and commenoe handling goods about 8:30, dosing aboat 4 r. K., and leaving tho carmen only a few honrs to do their lrast- Wbst formerly took twenty minutes to do, now takes from an hoar to an hour and a half. All this has been protested against by the merchants of New York, and was foreseen by Moses GrinnelL It is known to General Grant and tbe military ring, bnt Loot and Stock ing mnst be taken caro of, oven though the peo ple suffer. Thus it is seen that the military vino henna If Ira divas man #lisa oaa ” ring bangs, like tho “old man of tho sea, around tbe necks of tho people, a grievous and unnecessary bnrden, costing them millions of dollars a year and sacking away the life-blood of onr commercial prosperity, while the Presi dent and Tom Murphy, Horace Porter and the real estate ring at Long Branch ride in their carriages. play croquet together, and enjoy their otium cum dig. at their cottages by the sea. A Nnrutogn Scandal. From tho New York Herald-] Tbe knowing ones among tbo gnosis still re maining at Saratoga are rolling a sweet morsel of scandal under their tongues, from which much jnicenesa seems to have been extracted. Tho parties affected aro the wife of s leading turfman, who has a Urge stable of horses at tho Springs, and n yonng man who has been sport ing it In Saratoga daring the past snmmer. She is yonng, protty and vivacious; he gay aod handsome, and in New York, where ho resides, is known as ono of those “Broadway statues" whose only mission seems to be to lure unsus pecting victims to destruction. They met one morning at tbe springs; thero was a look, a frisk of the handkerchief, and an acquaintance ship formed, and in a little wMle a fallen wo man and a dishonored husband. Tbo gossips talked and their words reached the ears of the wronged husband. He is a cool, determined, resolute man. He went straight to tho “aweil,” charged him with bis crime and demanded con fession. The yonng man denied bis guilt. “Tell me all,” said tho other, “or I will kill you on the spot.” Tho guilty wretch saw in his look the determination of a man who meant what be said, and to save hia worthless life he told tbe story of his crimo which had undone the hus band. The wife was noxt interviewed—she denied, troteated, begged, entreated, bnt confessed at ast. A lawyer was sent for and the property whieh had boon presented to her by the husband was deedod back to him. They parted forever. The noxt step was an action for divorce, which is now pending before s referee in the village. It may be mentioned that one of tho sad fea tures of the case is the previous history of the husband and the effect this blight may have npon his life. Previous to marriage ho was s dissipated, hardened wretch. Marriage reform ed him—thoughts of his wife made him a pru dent, careful, temperate man, though, perhaps, a too indulgent, petting husband. He is said to be utterly overwhelmed with grief, and his friends fear that the disgraoe of his wife may drive him back to his former intemperate course of life. Feou Mother Mill's last letter to tbe San Fran dsoo Chronicle : “This morning ono of them females comes to my room, and she says: ‘Mad am, I called to ask yon to sign a petition to the Board of Health to have the same regulations for the men as they're going to have for the women in the social evil business.’ ‘Lord sakes, woman,’ I says, ‘my Bill, that's my husband wonld raise Cain if I was to interfere abont sneh things; yon'U have lo exense me.’ Then she looks at me vinegar like, and she says: ‘Madam, do yon then dosire that your husband shall visit sneh places with impnoitv?' *1 don't know nothing abont impunity,’ I says. ‘If bo goes among them it ain't my business; bat I guess if my Bill was to take a notion to go, be wonld likely go by hisself.’ She looked at me kind of oontemptnons, and she says: Some women have no respeck for theirSelves, nor does they deeiro to elevate their sect’ Then she marched ont and banged tbo door after her.” RAILROAD TIME TABLE.

This derangement produces deficient nutrition and assimilation* By assimilation I mean that process by which the nutriment of the food is con verted into blood, and theca ia to tbe sol ids of the body. Persons with digestion thus im paired, having the slightest predisposition to pulmo nary disease, or if they take cold, will bo very liable to have Consumption of the Lungs in some of its forms; and I hold that it will be impossible to cure any case of Consumption without first restoring a good digestion and healthy assimilation. Tho very first thing to be done is to eleaese th« ttema-h and bowels from all diseased mucus aad slime, which is clogging these organs so that they cionot perform their rune tion?. and then rouse up and restore the liver to a healthy action. For this purpose the surest and best remedy is bchenck’s Mandrake Pills. These Pills clean tne stomach and bowels of all tbe dead and mor bid slime that is cau<icg disease and decay in tbe whole system. They will clear out the liver of all dis eased bile that has accumulated there, and rouse it up to a new and healthy action, by which natural and healthy bile is secreted. Tbo stomach, bowels and liver are thus cleansed by the use of Schenck's Mandrake Pills: but thero re* mains in the stomaeh an excess of acid, tho organ is irnid and the appetite i>opr. In the bowels the I se als aro weak, and requiring streerth aod support. It is in a condition like this that t chenck’s Seaweed Tonie proves to be tho most valu«b!o remedy ever discovered. It is alkaline, and its use will neutralise all excess of acid, making the stomach sweet and fresh; it will give permanent tone tolthis important organ, and create a good, hearty appetite, and pre pare the system for tho first process of a good diges tion. and ulti mately mike good, healthy, living blood. After this preparatory treatment, what remains to euro most esses of Consumption is the free and perse vering use of Scbcnck’s Pulmonic Syrup. The Pul monic Syrup nourishes the system, purifies the blood, end is readily absorbed into the circulation, and thence distributed to tho diseased lungs. There it ripens all morbid matters, whether in the form ofab* seeeses or tubercles, and then assists nature to expel all the diseased matter in the form of free expectora tion. when once it ripens, It is then, by the great healiogand purifying properties of Schcnck's Pul monic Pvrup. that all ulcers and cavities are healed up sound, and m/ patient is cured. The essential thing to be done in curiog Consump tion is to get up a good appetite and a good digestion. to that the body will grow in flesh and getstrong. If a person hat diseased lung*—a cavity or abscess there —the cavity cannot heal, the mutter cannot riren. so long as the system is below par. Whet is necessary to cure is a new order of things—a good appetite, a s nutrition, the body to grow in flesh and get fat; t Nature is helped, the cavities will heal, the matter will ripoa and be thrown off in largo quantities, and the person regain health and strensth This is the true a d only plan to eure Consumption, and if a person is very bad. if tho lungs are not entirely J 0 - ttrojod, or even if one lung is entirely gone, if there is enough vitality left in the other to heal up. there is hope. I have seen many persons cured with only one sound luog. live and enjoy life to a good eld age.— Ihis is what Schenok's Medicines will do to cure Consumption. They will clean out the stomach, sweeten and strengthen it. get up a good digestion, and give Nature the assistance she needs to clear tbe •Sttem of all the disease that is in the lungs, what ever the form may be It is important that while ndsg Schenck’s Medi cines care should be exercised not to take cold: keep in-doors in cold and damp weather: avoid nishtair. and take out-door exercise only in a genial and warm sonshine- I wish it distinctly understood that when I recom mend a patient to be careful in regard to taking oold k while using my medicines. I do so for a special rea son. A man who bus but partially recovered from the effects of a bad cold is far more liable to a relapse than one who has been entirely cured; aud it is pre cisely the same in regard to Consumption, fo lens as thelanrs are not perfectly healed, just so long is there imminent danger of a full return of the disease. Hence it is that 1 so strenuously caution pulmonary patients against exposing tcemselves to an atmos phere that is not genial and pleasant. Confirmed ooncumttives’ lungs are a mass of sorei. whieh the least change of atmosphere will inflame. The grand secret of my success with my medicines consists in my ability to subdue inflammation instead of provoking it. as many of the faculty do. An inflamed lung can not. with safety to the patient, be expesed to the bit ing blasts of winter or the chilling winds of spring or autumn. 11 should be earefullj shielded from all ir ritating influences. The utmost caution should be observed in this particular, as without it a cure under almost any circumstances is an impossibility. 7 he person should be kept on a wholesome and nu tritious diet, and all the medicines continued until the body hai restored to it the natural quantity of flesh and strength. I was myself cured by this treatment of the worst kind of Consumption, and havo lived to get fat and f these many years, with one lung mostly gone. e cured thousanfs since, and v.rr mtny have been cured by this treatment whom I have never About the first of October I expect to take posted- don otmj now building, at the Northeast Corner of bixth and Arch Streets, where I shall he pleased to give advice to all who may require it.

No other apparatus is operated on tho same or any similar principle, which guarantees a light of uniform quality, in either argand or open Burners, WITHOUT THE USE OF ARTIFICIAL HEAT. The practical operation of tho Machines can be seen at tho PASSENGER SHED of tho Railroad Companies in MACON; also at the Printing and Publishing House of Messrs. J. W. BURKE A CO We call attention to tho following extract from a letter from J. W. Burke, Esq.: , , Macox, Ga., March 23,1871. “We have had one of tho U. S. Gaslight Comps- ny’a Machines, in operation*, since the 10th of No vember, 1870, and it is perfectly satisfactory to ns in its general working and cheapness. We paid tho Macon Gaslight Company for four months of last year and the year previous—viz: November, De cember, January and February—§399.56. In using this Machine our gas for the four corresponding months cost us §114—thus saving us in that timo §285.56. The light is quite as good as that of tho City Gas Company, and has tho advantage of being entirely under our control to use as wo please. During the severe weather in December it burned without intermission, not being^ at all affected by the freeze. We see no trouble in tho Machine or the light, and cheerfully recommend it.” [Signed] J* W. BURKE A CO. For information or testim Post-office box 159. Macon, Ga., Or WM.
