"All may be well with him, but there is some doubt, as yon will see. " I suntched the telegram and read thece words "Convict Kornilof never reached here; reported detained Spank; severe Jliiem: probably died since; no lati r advice received.

Yonr father is probably still too weak to travel, a moHt fortunate circum stance, ns it happens, for you will now bave but a few hundreds of miles to journey, in order to be at bis side, in stead of as many thousands.

The chief kindly did as I requested, ne sent a message to the littld convict station at Hpiodc, inquiring whether Kornilof was still detained there. I went fur a walk by tha Neva'a banks while the message went forward and until the reply should arrive. I could not go home and talk about it all with Percy nnd Boroftky. My beart waa too full. I must be alcne like the wonnded animal, in this, that prefers tc go and hide itself in order to suffer unobserved. I tramped the whole length of tha embankment twice, and those who bava seen St. Petersburg will know bow far that is, before I summoned courage to call again at the chancellery to bear what news had arrived at Spank.

I entry the marks of one of hia "hacks" to tht day. However, he wns cannht, ami I may say in this p'nee, for we have now finUlied. personally, with the ronnninn.ate sronndrel, that this time the police did Dot blunder, bnt jent him away to places from which there is no retnrn. I believe be la uorr at Sakhalin or thereabout Karly the following morning I re ceived a ntessnire from the rhancileTy of the iiradi nnchalnik. which ia the nfhVia! title of the lib f of .licn. The messencer rtitieted that I wonld con vey nivwlf as quickly as possible to the bead office I Weht this time withont much anxiety of heart, for I knew well enonw'h thst even wuhonl the fnifill- ment of his farcical condition of identi fication hy scar, the chief wonld now no longer withhold his consent to fa ther'a relespe. for.

My dear mother beard my story with cloeed eyes nnd psle face, holding my hand aa 1 told her one by one of the steps by which we bad reached success and of the perila which we had all passed through in aafety. Then I broke gently to her the news which had so dimmed for me the glory of success. Father had been very ill at Spask for many weeks and was ill again with a reiapse wnicn mignt ne very seriona at Nicolaief.

"I thank heaven haa been on our aide thronghont It will still be aa You will bring father home to me safe and well. Ob, I know it I know it for snrel" Mother's pluck and confidence did nra a world of good, and we spoke of plan and arrang-cmenta Percy should travel with me to Nicolaief and belp nurse fa ther, if he were still unsble to come borne at once. Mother suggested accom panying ns herself, bnt thia I would Dot hear of.

" she aaid, "and bow to praise yon. my son, and dear Percy my own heart ia too fall to aay whst I feel tell bim so, dear, both Percy and IVrofnky." Tbi wa tbe only moment at which Conism on Fourth Pagt, J. IS. McLiughlin of Little H xk, Ark. had a son in the Washington regiment who writes to his father the ln.it week in July iu am inner so sensible that much of his letter is printed below for the purpone of cor recting some of the rot that the ad aiiniatralion critics are circulating. rhe letter read: "Now, I notice a great many m- pera in the states ilo not think Uen. Otia is runuing a proper campaign or n oilier words, Ihey do not think lie is competent to handle this 'out break.' There is plenty of room for them lo try to do lH-tter. Let them coiue aud see the country and eon tend with what Geo. U.is hits h ad to contend with, and it is my opinion they would not do half as well, IIow can you use cavalry when there Is from 2 to 4 feet cf water? How can you conscientiously send light artil lery where a horse can't go? Now, if the condi i ions are so that you can send neither cavalry nor artillery would it be expedient to send iuftn- try? It has been my privilege to be here and I would ask there great Generals who are out of a Job, name a place w here Uen. Otis has had to vacati : show one where Fuu ston ran; where Lawton had to va cati ; where that prince of Generals, Charles A. King, ever asked for aid or used any other sign at night save the red rocket (meaning attacked but holding our own.) That was ai ways hi signal when lines were cut. .-The-e men did wlmt whx ordert t and did It well, and deet-rvea na (ion's thanks anil praise ntnl not abuse. These are the men who, after a nurd nmn-h and a great victory came into the lines to have a count i for the next day's campaign, aud who ordered us to rest and eat, and then aaid to ui-: "Boys, 1 am proud of you. 1J not salute us iu the field Host yourselves fur the morrow's work.' Gens. King and Anderson made these n marks to us on Gujade- loujroad, after Hie hard fought bat tie of San Pedro. If some of thore croakers had been there they woulJ have court-martialed us if we had not saluted. "It is all very well for those who run around with an umbrellalind gum coat on paved streets to talk that way on dry paper, but change the conditions and place them in the ileld in a canebaake or rice paddy and let llitm, after a hard day's fighting, lie down on a damp bed, get up in the morning and put on iheir clothe (if they Lad beeu lucky enough to get orde-s to take them of)), and about the hour of midnight, aa the heavens are loosened up and the lightnings blaze n minds them of the infernal regions, let tht m hear tbe order, 'fall iu,' and I guess they will then come to the conclusion that Uen, Otia knows what he is doing, and that the Held of war is net a pic nic or race track. L"t them think of 25,000 men, 50 per cent of whom are unaccliuaated, ia a country they are strangers to, with every pass or trail or road fortified with smailpox leprosy, berl lieri, itch, etc., left bj the enemy as he i-t made to vacate, with a cou)NLient medical force sufti- cient for the needs of the army in time of uce and never raintd in war, with new disea.-es for them to contend with, with a supply of medi cines not adapted to the diseasea all thia and many other things munt be run to suit the most fastidious, who know all about a war 10,imk miles away, and how it should te run that distant from the seat 1 1 government.
