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 appears that after the war of 1812
our government felt the necessity of
guarding the entrance to Iaike Cham

the erection of Fort Montgomery. The
original notion was to construct a
great fort. In those days that meaut

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
