How SOLDIER FEELS IN BATTIE.--A young
French officer thus writes Of his first experience
In battle:
"Our officers kept us back, for we we're not
numerous enough to charge upon the enemy.
This was, moreover, most prudent for the mur-
derous fire-so fatal to the white coats--did us
but little harm. Our concal balls penetrated
their dense masses, while those of the Austrians
whlstled past our ears and respected our per-
sons. 1t was the first time had faced fire, nor
was the only one. Well, am satisfied with
myself. True, l lodged the first balls, but
Henry Nv. they say, did the same at the begin
ming of every battle. 1t is, in fact, q physical
effect, independent of The will.
"But this tribute paid, If you could only feel
how each shot electritles you. 1t Is like whip
on a racers legs. The balls whistle past you,
turn up the earth around you, kill one, wound
another, and you hardly notice them. You
grow intoxicated, the smell Of gunpowdcr
mounts to your brain, the eye becomes blood
shot, and the look is fixed upon the enemy.
There is something of all the passions in that
terrible passion excited in a soldier by the sight
of blood and the tumult of battle.
Everybody who has tried it, test6es to the
peculiar intoxioation that is produced by being
In battle. There is an infatuating influence
about the smell of powder, the shril whistle of
the bullet, and the sight of human blood, that
instantly transforms men from towards to he
roes, from women sometimes to monsters.
None can tell the nature or mystery of that in
aueuce but those who have been in the fray
themselves"
The Nevada Democrat., 1859-11-02

DUELN0.-When Judge Thatcher was, many
years ago, member of Congress from Massaehu.
sets, he was challenged to duel by Mr.. Blount,
who was also member from North North Car
olina, for words spoken in debate. The Judge,
on reading the message from Blount, after ad-
justing his wig and revolutionary hat, said to
the bearers
"Give my respectful compliments to Mr.
Blount, and tell him he cannot have definite
answer to his note to day. Let him ha patient
o short time, till oan write to Portland, and
receive an answer. always consult my wife
on matters Of Importance, we'll knowing that
she is a better judge of family affairs than my.
self. II she consents to take the choice of be-
coming widow, or having her husband hang
Tell him not to be in hurry; it will not take
more than three weeks to receive her answer"

A RErREsENTATIvE.-A young urchin, en-
ployed to cleanse q chimney of a house in Mac
olesdeld, and having asoended to the "summt
of his profession" took survey. This COM
pleted, he prepared to descend, but, mistaking
the fiue, he found himself, on his landing, in the
private study of q limb Of the law whose med
itation, on some abstruse point was put to flight.
The sensation of both parties II is impossible to
describe; the boy, terrified lest he should be
punished stood riveted to the spot, and the
lawyer, struck dumb, started from bis seat, the
very image of horror, but spoke not. Sooty,
however, soon found tongue, aud in accents,
which only increased the terror Of the man of
law, cried out
"My fathers cummin' directly"
This was enough; the presence of such an
equivocal being, so introduced, unnerved his
heart; with one bound tho atfrighted lawyer
few down stairs, and in his kitchen sought ref
uge from the enemy.

POTTERY FROM TnE GRAVES AT CHRIoUL--Dr
J. King Merritt recently obtained from the
graves at Chiriqui, which are being rided by
gold seekers, a large number of curious speci.
mems Of pottery, which are now on exhibition
In New York:
"The articles of pottery which he obtained
are very interesting, and are mostly in re-
markable state of preservation. They consist
apparently, of cooking vessels of various shapes
and sizes, slabs for grinding corn, cups of most
grotesque designs, with handles formed of fig.
ures, like which there is nothing outside of q
nightmare dream in their eccentric hdeous-
ness. Many OF them are ernamented with bor-
ders and patterns in red paint and tho whole
executed in style of workmanship indicating
no inconsiderable skill on the part of the de-
Bigners. The models of the human figure are
rude and unoouth. Among the specimens are
some musical instruments, in baked clay, re-
sembling boys whistles, and others with finger
holes, like miniature clarionets In the collec-
tion are also quantity of AK and arrow heads
in red and black stone, Of quite rude formation.
Dr. Merit has also few gold images which he
purchased of natives, not having found any
himself. He describes the country as being
healthy in the dry season, but would dissuade
any person from venturlng there from the Nor
thern States until December next. The graves
lie mostly along the rivers, and very seldom
present any appearance Of tumuh. Gold is not
found in more than one grave out of ten, and
then usually in small quantities. II is proba-
BILE that only the remains of rich people were
honored with auriferous images, and that the
poorer classes had to content themselves in
their repose with the articles of baked clay.
As to the date to be assigned to these articles,
nothing can be said. No bones or the remains
OF the dead are found In the graves"
The Nevada Democrat., 1859-11-02

THE Milwaukee News contains an account of
sailor who, after FIVE years cruise, returned
to that city. We let the News tell the balance
of the story:
ale left wife and two children when be
went away, and the first thing on his return
was to seek out his family. Ho found them in
the Third Ward aud after kissing his wife, saw
with astonishment that his children, like sheep
In the East, had doubled in Eve years, as in the
place of two there were now four, and one
quite small. He looked at his wife, He then
looked at his babies. Then at his wife who
stood silently by. Back and forth from one to
the other, full five minutes he gazed then broke
out with well, Mary, for small woman,
without help, you've raised children amazing
ly.'"

"HIs FAITHFUL Doc. ."-As an incident of the
return Of Governor Seymour from Russia to his
home In Hartford, Connecticut, the Courant has
the following
We are told that notwithstanding his six
years Of absence, faithful dog he left in Hart
ford recognized him at once, and bounded with
delight, fawned and jumped upon him as that
noble brute Is wont to manifest its delight; 1t
brought up the old Homeric story of the dog of
Ulysses. The Governor has wandered further
than Homer could dream Of; but he meets re-
ception which shows that neither human nor
canine nature has changed.

AN EPISODE AT THE WHITE HoUsE.-Among
the visitors at the White House, recently, was
young bride. The bridegroom was not SO
young. She took occasion to tell the President
that he had "been on the bachelor line some"
Upon which the President said he feared that
he should never abandon that line: u sneh
seemed to be his lot. Upon which the bride
expressed her astonishment, and told the old
chief that, according to tho papers, he was not
far from the kingdom of matrimony. But Mr..
b. ignored all knowledge of any such rumor.
The company were greatly ed fed with this
little episode.

AUTUMN.

Rudy as gold Is the chestnut-tree
When autumn passes by;
No bleak wind crisps the silent sea
Which Is blue as a maiden's eye.
The yellow sun through the forest leaves
Drops thread of dancing light;
Young children sing mid the barley .sheaves,
And shout at the swallows flight.
Yet Earth is lonely. The woodland sero
And the soft murmuring foam,
Seem ever to bring to the listining ear,
Sweet songs of an unknown home.
