FORT BLUNDER Ths Soldisrs Who Didn't Stsal ths Apples Ata Them. A reprimand which takes the form of a joke is sometimes more effectual than u burst uf anger. Such an exam ple win furnished by a Confederate olhcer and described by T. O. Moore lu bla "Anecdotes of Geueral Cleburne." The soutbarn urmy, marching across the mountains of Georgia, bad its sup ply trains cut off and was obliged to live ujsm the country. Apples, chestnuts and persimmons were plenty, but the army had strict orders not to depredate upon private property. One day I was trudging uloiig in the rear of General Gran bury's brigade when I saw down the road General Cleburne sitting ou the top rail of a fence, while below him lay five or six bushels of tine red ap ples. Near by stood a number of sol diers, who looked as mean as men could look. Geueral Granbury saluted General Cleburne, who remarked: “I'm peddling apples today.” "How's that?” “These gentlemen,” pointing to the soldiers wlio had stolen the apples, “have been very kind. They have gathered tipples for me and charged nothing. I'll give them I ... j on and your men. Now get down and take one, aiul each of your men take one— only one, mind you—until all are gone.” The Invitation was accepted, the men cheering for ‘-'Old Pat.” When the apples were gone the general made ea» h mun who had stolen the apples curry a rail for a mile or two. It Was Eraotsd by Our Gsvirnmsnt •" Canadian Sod. It Is not generally known that our government on e undertook to erect a fort ou British soil. The site of this fort, after» aid culled Fort Moutgom ery, was about half a mile nori hens' of Rouse's Point. N. Y„ not fur from the foot of Lake Champlain. Popular ly it was known as "Fort Blunder.’ it appears that after the war of 1812 our government felt the necessity of guarding the entrance to Iaike Cham plain. Accordingly in 1815 was begun the erection of Fort Montgomery. The original notion was to construct a great fort. In those days that meaut a fort with three tiers of guns. When tile work hud been in band for some time it was discovered that, owing to nu ei ror of early surveyors, the actual boundary between New York and Canada, the forty (ifth par allel of north latitude, passed south of the fort. Work on the fort was sus pended for almut twenty-five years, and not until the year 1842 was the territory restored to the United States. The agreement known as the Web ster-Ashburton treaty, establishing the northeaate’D boundary, made the line between New York and Canada con form to the old and Incorrect early Thus "Fort Blunder" was survey, again on United States territory. The people of Maine, it Is said, never quite forgave Daniel Webster for giving up, as they claimed he did. a great slice of territory to which they thought them selves entitled In order to save Rouse's Point. After the boundary question was set tied the fort was finished, but it wus never manned by more than sufficient men to keep it in order, aud it wus I never armed.—Harper’s Weekly. BATTLE WITH A BOG.
