PopE ON SIaEL,--In Major General Hal
leck's report to the Secretary of War we see a
brief dispatch from Gen. Pope is incorporated,
in the course of which he says: "...l -
"sigel, as you know, is perfectly unreliable,
and suggest that some officer of superior
rank be sent to command his army corps. o o
Sigeps corps, although composed of some of
the best fighting material we have, will never
do much service under that officer"
A letter from Washington says:
The reflections upon the conduct and ca
pacity of General Sigel,. contained in the letter
of General Pope to General Halleck, are so
direct that General Sigel will undoubtedly de-
mand official investigations into the charges
General Pope will be called on to sustain or
retract his imputations. The friends of Gen.
eral Sigel are confident that they can be traced
to personal dislike or professional jealousy on
the ps.. Of Gen, Pope

The Poor Little kittens,

How dear to my heart are the scenes Of my child
hood,
when fond recollection presents them to view !;
The cheese-press, the goose-pond, the pigs in the
wildwood,
And every old stump that my infancy knew,
The big linkum Eastwood, with wide-spreadinr
The horses that graned where my grandmother
feilj
The sheep on the mountain, the calves in the
meadow,
And all the Young kittens we drowned in the
we'll,
The meek little kittens the milk-loving kittens,
The poor little kittens we drowned in the we'll
1 remember with pleasure my .grandfathcr's sog-
giles,
Which rode SO majestic astraddle his nose;
And the harness, Oft mehded with TOW string and
Goggles"
That belonged to old Dolly, now free from her
wocs,
And fresh in my heart is the fresh maple wood
pile
Who're often I've worked with beetle and wedge,
Striving 10 whack up enough to last good while,
And gruinblng because my axe had no edge.
And there was the kitchen, and pump that stood
nigh it,
Where We sucked up tn edrink through quill in
the spout
And the hooks where we hung up the pumpkin to
dry it;
And the old cider pitcher, no doing without
The old brown earthcn pitcher, the nozzle cl ack-
cd pitcher,
The pain-casing pitcher, mo doing withoat."
And there was a scliool-housc away from each
dwelling,
Where schoo-ma'n's would govern with ahso-
rute sway;
Who taught me my arithmetic" reading, spell
= ling,
And "whaled me like blazes' about every day,
remember the ladder that swung in the passage
Which led to the loft in the peak of the house,
Where my grandmother hung up her pumpkin
and SAUSAGE"
To keep them from the rat, and the cat, and
the mouse,
Bat now, far removed from that nook of creation,
Emotions of grief big as tea-kettles swell,
When fancy rides back to my old habi.atien,
And thinks of the kittens we drowned in the
we'll;
The meek little kittens, the milk loving kittens,
The poor kittens we drowned in the we'll

AN 1919 WAR STORY.

The following we believe has never been
seen in print. Ogden Hoffman used to tell
the story. He was in the great fight. between
the Constitution and Gucrriere, and said that
as the British ship came sailing down on them
rs they heard the sharp orders, when the guns
were run out and the men could be seen ready
with their matcb-locks, ON officer came ID
haste to Captain Isaac Hull and asked for or
ders to fire. "Not yet" was the quiet response,
As they came still nearer, and the British yes
sci poured in her fire, the first lieutenant Of
the Constitution came on the poop and begged
permission tc return the broadside, saying that
the men could not be restrained much longer.
"Not yet" was the Indifferent reply. Still
nearer the British ship came, and the Ameri-
can prisoners, who were in the cockpit Of the
Guerrero, afterwards said that they began to
believe that their own countrymen were afraid
to measure their strength with that of the eti-
emy, and this thought gave them more pain
than the wounds which some of them were
still suffering from. In moment the Guer-
riere gallantly came forward, showing her bur-
nished sides and as the swell carried her close
to the very muzzle of "Old 1ronsides," Captain
Hull, who was then quite fat and dressed in
full tights; bent himself twice to the deck, and
with every muscle and vein trobbing with ex-
citcment, shouted out as he made another gy-
ration. "Now, boys, pour it into them
That broadside settled their opponents, and
when the smoke cleared away, the Cofhmo-
dore's tights were to be seen split from waist
band to heel. Truly the Commodore had a
soul 'too big for his brceches." Hoffman used
to add that Hull, nothing disconnected, gave
his orders with perfect GOODNESS, and only
changed his tights when the British comnnan-
der's sword was given UP to him.

Congressman from Tennessee.

A Nashville correspondent of the Chicago
Pines says
Some stiris being made by interested par.
ties regarding the election of Union Congress-
men from this State but the whole affair is
such transparent humbug and gigantic
Swindle,' that it deserves nothing but repro
baton. Whatever you may hear through
other sources, assure you there is no genu-
inc Union feeling here, nor in n'this' part of the
State. so far as my observation extends. l
have taken pains to learn the real state Of
public feeling wherever have gone, and say
candidly have not found one genune uncon-
ditional Union man in tho State since corting
into it. That there arc q few, no otic will deny
That there are many, every one knows to be
untrue. That there arc enough to entitle
them to elect town constable, Ito say moth

English bible Translation

e Vickl!fe's Bible.-This was the first trans
lation made into the English language. 1t
was first translated, by John Wickliffe, about
1880, but never printed, though there are
manuscript copies of it in several Of the pub
lie libraries.
Tyndale's BiJle-Thc translation by Will
liam Tyndale, assisted by Miles Coverdalc, was
the first printed bible in the English language.
The New Testament was published in $780,
In 1882 Tyndale and his associates finished
the whole bible, except the Apocrypha; and
printed it abroad.
MatMeao's hJle--Whilc Tyndale was pre-
pairing o second edition of his bible. he was
taken up and burned for heresy, at Flanders
On his death, Coverdale and John Rogers re-
Yised it, and added a translation of the Apoc-
.ypha. 1t was dedicated to Henry VIII, in
1857, and was printed at Hamburg under the
borrowed name Of Thomas Matthew, whence
it was called Mathews Bible.
Cranr,cr's Bibe.-This was the first bible
printed by authority in England, and publicly
set up in the churches. 1t was Tyndale's ver-
sion, revised by Coverdale and examined by
Cranmer, who added a preface to it, was called
Cranmer's bible. 1t was printed by Grafton,
one of the largest volumes published in 1910.
After being adopted. suppressed, and restored
under Successive reigns, new edition was
brought out in 1862:
Genera Bib,e.--Some English cSiles at &c.
neya, in Queen Mary's reign, viz Coverdalc
Goodman, Gilbe, Sampson, Cole, whiting
and Knox made new translation, which was
the Geneva bible. 1t was much valued by
the Puritan party. In this version the frs
distinction of verses was made. 1t wen
through some twenty editions.
The Bishops Bible~-Archbishop Parker en-
gagged bishops and other learned men TO brin.
out new translation. They did so in 1868
IN large folio 1t made what was afterwards
called the Bishops bible. In 1869 it was pub
hshed in octavo in small, but fine black let
ter. In IT the chapters were divided into yer
scs, but without breaks for them.
PUker's Bible.-The Bishops bible under
went some corrections and was printed, 10
arge folio, in 1872, and called Matthew Park
ers bible. This version was used in tn
churches for forty years.
Douay Bible,-The New Testoa1ent wa
brought out by the Roman Catholics, in 1864
and called the Romanish New Testament,
was condemned by the Queen of England, an
copies seized by her authority and destroyed
In 1600-10, the old Testament was added, an
published at Douay-hcncc called Douay bi
bic.
King james Biblc-This version now i
use was brought out by King James author
ity, in 1911, Fifty learned men were employ
ed to accomplish the work ofrevising. Fror
death or other causes, three Of them failed
enter upon it. The remaining forty scve
were ranged under six divisions, and had diff
erent portions of tho bible assigned to eac
division. They entered upon their task i
1907. After some three or four years of dill
igent labor, the whole was completed. Thi
version was generally adopted, and other vel
sions fell into ds,se. 1t has continued in us
for nearly two hundred years.

GKEAT IMPROVEMENT IN SoAP.-The wife
of an American agriculturist has been expert
menting in soaps, and finds that the addition
of three quarters of pound of borax to q
pound of soap melted without boiling, makes
saving of onc-half in the cost of soap, and o
three fourths the labor of washing, improving
the whiteness of the fabrics; besides the usual
caustic effect is thus removed, and the hands
are left with peculiar soft and silky feeling,
leaving nothing more to be desired by the most
ambitious washerwoman.

kinds of coal are liable to form clinkers which
adhere to the fire brick lining Of stoves, CRATES

means without breaking the firebrick. Per-

know that by putting few oysters shells in
the fire close to tho clinkcrs, the latter will be-
come so loose as to be readily removed without
breaking the lining ng.-Scientifc american.

GIVE YOUR HORSES LIGHT AND
AIR

History informs us that certain Emperor
loved favorite horse so much SO that he had
golden manger made for him. This extrav-
agance appears objectionable nowadays, and
yet it is more pardonable than the opposite
extreme-meanness in the treatment of the
horse. In looking at the construction Of very
large proportion of our horse stables, am
sometimes led to think that the object of the
builder must have been to see how widely be
could depart from every principle Of humani-
ty and expediency-humanity in compelling
patient and faithful animal to remain penhed
ap in a close, dark and filthy apartment-cz-
pediency in thus sacrificing not only the COM
fort, but the health, and consequently the USE
fulness and value of the animal
Light is indispensable to the plant and to the
MANS it less so to the horse2 If tits, why
When the tyrants Of the old countries sought
to inflict their most fearful punishments, next
to death, confinement in dark cell was con-
sidered the most severe. Is it reasonable that
the horse-whose native home is in the desert
and wilderness, where there is nothing to OBJ
struct the free light of heavens it reasona-
BILE, ask, that he should not suffer from con-
finement in our generally dark and gloomy
stables7 Is IL not shame, in land like ours
where glass enough for moderate sized VIM
dow can be had for fifty cents, that a valuable
horse should be shut up day after day in a
dark stall or stable? Let every horse owners
heart, if he has one, answer?
Is foul air wholesome for plants2 Certainly
not. Is it wholesome for nen2 Most en-
phatically, not. If not wholesome for plants
or men, can it be for horses? The answer is
as emphatically, moi
Why then are the majority of the stables
constructed without the slightest regard to
that mos. important feature, ventilation2 In
thousands VI cases, an animal than which
none other loves the fresh air better, is doomed
to confinement for days and nights at a time
in stable, the atmosphere of which is so foul
that a man would die in it, How many of the
diseases to which our horses are subject, may
be traced to this objectionable error? I say
unpardonable error, for no man possessed Of
either common sense or common humanity
would thus punish ono of his best and most
faithful rricnds-uhe horse
A word in conclusion. Farrners if yor
