General PelEsSier.

The frightful incident in Gen. Pellissier's career
detailed below, shows how much more ferocious man
may become than tiger, when his passions let
loose by war. In the summer OF 1915, this blood
thirsty General suffocated upwards of thousand of
the Ouled Reahs, an Arab tribe in Algeria, by clos
ing up every inlet Of their cave with burning fagots
The Akbar of Agiers, after describing their retreat
and pursuit 10 huge cavern proceeds to say:
ssThis state of things continued till the night Of
the 10th, when losing all patience, and having no
who formed perpetual nucleus of revolt in the coun-
try the fire was renewed, and rendered intense Du-
ring the time, the cries Of the unhappy wretches who
we're being suocaed dreadful, and then all be-.
came silent, nothing was heard but the cracking of
the fayots. This silence spoke volumes; the troops
entered and found one thousand dead bodies; about
one hundred and fifty who still breathed brought
into the fresh air, but died after In fact, we
could not accurately count the bodies, heaped one
above the other, nor the infants at the breast, who
were almost entirely concealed by their mothers
dresses. On the 23d obliged to shift our
camp, having been driven away from the neighbor-
hood Of the caves by the infectious smell, and we
have abandoned the place to the ravens and vutures
who have been flying round the grotto, and which
we see from our encampment carrying away huge
pieces of flesh"
This act was condemned at the time of ex.
traordnary barbarty by the English journals, and
disgraceful to a civilized people, but the London
Globe does not now hesitate say that it is TO be
hoped he will hit upon some equally decisive means
of DISCRIMINATING the defenders of Sebastopol.'

Burning of Bayou Sara, La.

1t was announced by telegraph that the town Of
Bayou Sara, La, had been destroyed by fire. The
New Orleans Delta of 18th June gives the following
particulars:
Son Friday night, at ten O'Clock, fire broke out
i'm BAYOU Sara, which had the most melancholy con-
sequences as the nearly burnt to the ground
and about $500 900 worth Of property destroy ed
At least, such is the rough estimate of the losses,
made by the towns-people who were interested in the
various stores and houses consumed by the devOurng
elements.
We are indebted for the details ef the disaster to
Capt. FISHER, OF the steamer Amanda, which are
briefly follows:
The fire originated from incendiarism, in a stable
in the OF the establishment of J. Meyer, from
which it spread rapidly to the concern of Harper g.
Son. In very brief space Of time the flames be-
came uncomfortable, and swept in the direction Of the
wind along the banks of the bayou. All the houses
on the line OF It's course consumed, and mere
ashes replaced them The course OF the fire was
then directed toward Market street. and finally set
tied in the focus Of the town. utterly DESTROYING the
central block and all the property which it contained
1t was impossible to arrest the sweep Of the flames
Each moment it gathered strength, until il became
irresistible, and the people looked on in dumb amaze
ment while the conAagration ragged around them"

EVENING HOURS.
by CURRER BELL.

by CURRER BELL.
The human heart has hidden treasures,
In secret kept, in silence sealed;
The thoughts the hopes, the dreams, the pleasures,
Whose charms were broken, if revealed.
And days may pass in gay confusion,
And nights in noisy riot NY,
While, lost in fame's or wealth's illusion,
The memory of the past may die
hut there hours of lonely musing,
Such as in the evening silence come,
When soft as birds their piniOns closing,
The hearts best feelings gather home.
Then, in our souls there seems to languish
A tender grief that is not woe;
And thoughts that once wrung grOans of anguish
Now cause some mild tears to fOw.
And feelings, once as strong as passions,
Float softly back-a faded dreamj
Our own sharp griefs and wild sensations,
The taste of others suffering seem;
oh when the heart is freshly bleeding,
How it longs for that time to be,
When through the mist of years reccding,
Its woes but live in reverie.
And it can dwell on moonlight gmmer,
On evening shades and loneliness,
And while the sky grows dim and DINNER,
Heed no untold woes of distress
Only an deeper impulse given
By lonely hour and darkened room,
To solemn thoughts that to heaven,
Seeking life and world to come.
