Moody, oapuuu nine teenth in'Bntry, May 14, 1801, born in New York, appointed from Indiana, resigned Maroh 0th, 1804." Farther research in Hennessey's reoord of army and civilian appointments in tbe Onited States army, page 151, shows Gideon O. Moody, captain nineteenth United States infantry iiay. 1R61. de tailed as lieutenant colonel United States volunteers until tbe summer ot 1862, re joined bis regiment, aud on reoruiting dnty until tbe spring ot 18G3. He again rejoined bis regiment and participated in the battles of Hoover's Gap, Obiok amauga, Missionary Ridge and other engagements and resigned March 18th. 1864 The above record is that of Ool. Moody ss an olfioer. Tbe other reports show him to have formerly been a pri vate who gained promotion by merit orious servioe. It was my intention to publish the faotsjf advene, and it is bu fair to publish the facts ascertained tn disprove the sourrillons obarge made tgaioRt an old soldier, no matter whether a good politician or not. Mrs. tlieveland'n iMHcouru-Hy. Washington speoial: There hus been a good deul of gossip to-day about the peculiar aotion of MrB, Cleveland yester day, and so far no explanation bus been offered. She did not attend the man gural ceremonies and she was not pres ent at the lunch given by President Cleveland to his successor in ofiloe. After the presidential party bad leit the aapitol in the morning, Mrs, Cleveland took a oarriage for tbe residenoe of Sec retary Fairobild, where she remained during tbe day. Never before has she failed in oourtesy in any reBpeot aud bas jbs^rvtd all of tbe conventionalities with tbe most rigorous fidelity, therefore her neglect of Mrs. Harrison upon tbe last lay of her husband's administration is all the more the subject of remark. There were some other little incidents in the domistio department of the white aouse that gave Mrs. Harrisons great deal ot annoy anoe. Several of the ser vants having understood that they were to be discharged did not wait for tbe new ooonpants of tbe white house to make their appearaaoe, but huving been paid off on tbe previous day by Colonel Lamont, left the establishment without notioe. Three or fonr others were found ii a grossly intoxicated oondition by the tiarrison family when they arriv ed alter tbe inauguration. It ap pears that PresideLt Oleveland had left several bottles of wine in" tbe cellar, and after the departure of tbe steward tbe servants had helped them selves. Three of tbe door keepers were also dmok and .disorderly, and behaved themselves in a most disreputable man ner. Colonel Wilson, tbe superintendent of put 1 buildings acd grounds was soon sent for, and cleaned out the reprobates a mostsummary manner. Two or three oew servants were engaged this morning, but last night at dinner and this morning at breakfast tbe Harrison family were compelled to help themselves. Who Suggested Tracy. Washington speoial: Some specula tion has been indulged in as to who first suggested General Traoy's name to President Harrison. Credit should be given to Franklin Woodrnff, of Kings oounty, also to Senator Hieoook and J. •Sloan Fassett. They oalled General Harrison's attention to the fact that if it bad not been for tbe very fine political work done by Kings oounty the stats wonld not have been republican. Tbe gentlemen named were the first to sug gest Traey. They did it at a time when tbe New York situation was in the great est doubt, and when General Harrison was perplexed as to just what he should do in order to satisfy tbe Knickerbockers. They oonceived the idea that .there was a good field for them bere, and they oame down to see wbat they ooul do. Oongressman Springer to-day received a letter from a man in Dakota charging that Moody was dismissed from the army for oowardice. havd investigated tbe oase in tbe war department, witb tbe following results: The volunteerTirmy register, page 41,shows: Ool. Gideon O. Moody discharged Angxlsll 19, 1862, R. A. lnrning to the sdj itaot general' report of the Indians volunteers it is ascertained that "ii. A." means that when mustered out ot the Ninth Indiana infantry Ool. Moody went into the)stale. Those who resall tbe fieroe con- Mr. Blaine's high regard for General Traoy is indicated by a remark marie by bim when the appointment of tbe Kings oountv favorite was under consideration.
