The 014 Pathfinder Made Happy. |
A Balance in His Favor Instead of a
Shortage Against Him.
WASHINGTON, May 10.—A most
curious incident illustrative of delay in
correcting official mistakes in the de-
partments at Washington has just come
to light as a sequerce of the passage of
the bill placing John O. Fremont upon
the retired list of the army with the
rank of Major General. :
The first Republicar. candidate for the
Presidency isa most picturesque patri-
arch, seventy-one years old, and has
been for years in circumstances, if not of
actual poverty, at least straightened
In 1848, when a Lieutenant in the army
he seized and held with an iron grip,
the region which is now the State of
Cslifornia, and no one denies that the
nation is indebted to him for that gilded
member of the sisterhood.
‘While engaged in this service, Lieu-
tenant Fremont’s accounts with the |
Government were left in such a state
that he has a'ways been regarded as an |
official debtor to the Government to the
amount of $19,000; and it has been one
of the chief sorrows of General Fre-
mont’s later years that he was unable to
square this balance against him, a record
of which was in the office of the Third
Auditor of the Treasury.
The other day General Fremont called
at the office of Second Comptroller Gil-
kerson, of the Treasury, whose business
it would be to pass upon the balance
against him, the old man in trembling
tones stating to Colonel Gilkesongthat his
financial circumstances are such that if
bis salary asa retired Major General
were retained, to meet this alleged
shortage, he would be for sometime in
actual want. At this request the Second
Comptroller investigated the accounts
and greatly to his surprise discovered
that instead of General Fremont being
a debtor to the United States, the Gov-
ernment had actually owed him for over
forty years $21,000. The records were
perfectly clear and it was proved beyond
dispute that through a mistake in book-
keeping, Lieutenant Fremont had been
charged with $19,000 for which a vouch-
er was on file, and that by another cler-
ical error Lie had not been credited with
a voucher for $21,000, which he had ex-
pind under the direction of the War
epartment.
When General Fremont called again |
to ask Colonel Gilkeson whether some
arrangement might be made to pay his
supposed indebtedness by installments,
he was so unprepared for the glad news
awaiting him that he fainted. Thursday
a warrant for the amount due him was |
made out, duly approved and signed.

Pat aStrange Spell on Him.
Under Alleged Hypnotic Influence Hen- :
ry Latchaw Pines and Wanders.
SHAMOKIN,May 18—Henry Latchaw,
a miner, aged forty, lives at Fidler !
Green near this place, with two older |
brothers and two sisters, all, like him-
self, unmarried. On the eveningjof May |
8 Henry ate his supper and started out’
for a short walk. While outa peculiar |
spell settled upon him and he was un- |
able to return home. All night long he ;
journeyed through the mountains, arriv- |
ing at Catawissa in the morning.
Still the unseen influence held him and
he went over into Luzerne county
through the mining region. Thence he
journeyed on foot to Williamsport, and
although he had money in his pockets,
the same strange influence would not
permit him to use it to supply his cra-
ving appetite. He slept in the open
air and fasted for eight days, having in
the meantime aimlessly wandered
through Watsontown, Milton, North-
umberland to Sunbury, where the spell
being broken, he aithoted a railroad
ticket and returned home,
His brothers in the meantime became
thoroughly alarmed by his absence.
Aided by neighbors they ‘searched the
mountains for miles aréund, supposing
he had been taken sick and was unable
to return home, His elder brother tells
the following story: :
«We are Protestants and believe in
our bible and our religion. Some time
ago there lived in this neighborhood a
young woman whose delight was to ar-
gue on the subject of religion. She
would come to our house and start a dis-
pute and try in every way to convince
us she was right and we were wrong,
with a view, no doubt, to get us to- join
her church. One evening she came in,
bringing her Bible with her, and began
her argument. The girls were indig-
nant and said she had no right to bring
her Bible in our house. With this the
woman went over to brother who was
sitting in one corner of the room, made
a few passes about his head, tapped him
on the shoulder, when he nearly jump-
ed to his feet, and although he has no
learning, began to quote Scripture and
defend the religion of the woman.
«After he had finished his defense of
her belief she read a few passages from
St. John and departed. Up to that
time Hapry had been a strong, robust
man, but immediately his health began
to fail . He acted strangely at times,
claiming he was compelled to act under
irresistible power. The woman moved
away from the neighborhood and is, I
believe,a re-ident of Shamokin; but
the influence put upon him at the time.
seems to return at intervals. I don’t
know whether there is anything in mes-
merism or not, or whether it is the devil,
or what it is, but Ido know that my
brother has never been himself since.

Books, Magazines, &c.
The New England Magazine for May opens
with an article on Mr. Howells, by Hamlin
Garland. The remarkable change in spirit
and purpose which marks Mr. Howell's later
novels, especially 4 Hazzard of New Fortunes
is what is chiefly dwelt upon. The article is
acoompanied by a new portrait of Mr. Howells.
A new portrait of George Kenna faces a stir-
ring poem entitled “Kara,” by Mr. Allen East-
man Cross. Mr. William M. Salter, in a brief
article on Ethics in Politics, urges the divorce
of municipal affairs from party considerations.
The principal illustrated article in this number
is a Fright account, by Miss Elizabeth Wailing,
of a journey in a runabout along the Massachu-
setts North Shore, the paper abounding with
interesting bits of antiquitism and gossip. A
beautifully illustrated article on “Some old
Dorchester Houses,” by Mrs. Marion A. Me-
Rride, is also full of pleasant antiquitism, and
shows how finely some of our fathers housed
themselves ; Mrs. Nina Moore Tiffany con-
tributes another of her stories of the Fugative
Slaves, there are other articles touching points
of New England history—one on the Mashpee-
Indians : another on “How Rhode Island re-
ceived the Constitution.” There is an article
on the Cotton-Gin, with portrait of Whitney
and other illustrations ;a curious article on
Dreams, by Horatio King; some unusually
good love stories: and some poetry worth rea d-
ing—which is saying nota little, as the maga-
zines. go nowadays,
