The Commercial has advices from Chat

headquarters of the lusses at the battle of
Chickamauga, is-kilIed, 1900; wounded,
$500; prisoners. $500; total. Is, 900.
1t was the opinion that, if the right wing
had held its own, the result Of the battle
would have been decisive Union victory.
The success Of Gen Thomas on the left
was much greater than represented in any
published account of the battle. Thomas
routed LongSJreet,s corps, aud was in a
condition 20 pursue the enemy; but, BY the
disorganizatiOn of the right wing. it was i'm
practicable. No surprise is felt in the ar

The enemy's loss is believed to te at least

Iife'S Autumn.

Like the leaf, life is fading. We speak
and think of it with sadness, just as we
think of the Autumn season. But there
should be no sadness at the fading of a
life that has done well its work. If we
rejoice at the advent of new life, if We
welcome the coming of a new pilgrim to
the uncertainties of this worlds way, why
should there be so. much gloom when all
these uncertainties are passed, and life at
its waning wears the glory of a completed
task? Beautiful as is childhood in its
freshness and innocence, its beauty is that
of untired life. 1t is the beauty of prom
ise, of Spring, of the bud A holier and
rarer beauty which the young life of
faith and duty wears.
1t is the beauty of thing completed /;
and as all come together to congratulate
each other with some great work that has
been achieved, and well, its concluding
nothing but gladness, so ought we to feel
when the setting sun filings back its beams
upon life that has answered well life's
purpose When the bud drops bhghted,
and the mildew blasts the early grain and
there goes all hopes of the harvest, one
may well be sad but when the ripened
year sinks amid the garniture of Autumn
flowers and leaves, why should we regret
or murmur? And life that is ready and
waiting for the ''well done" of God whose
latest virtues and charities are its noblest,
should be given back to God IN uncom-
planning, reverence, we rejoicing that
earth is capable of so much goodnes and
is permitted such virtue.

A Note on Wedding Rings.


The "plain gold ring so often mention
ed by modern poets, and which is so IA
miliar to all the present generation, is but
OF comparatively recent introduction
Formerly these rings were ornamented in
various ways, and some were remarkable
Tor their cunning device and beauty of
workmanship. The wedding-rings of the
Romans, who originated them, displayed
Joined hands, intaglios, and inscriptions
Later the ''gimmel," or double ring, which
opens into two and yet cannot be separa-
ted, was used, and rings oTnated with fl
igree and enamel. 1t was also the good
" custom to inscribe wedding and be
trothal rings with appropriate notices.
In Germany and Italy fnger-rings seem
to have been more elaborate during the
Middle Ages, and more recently than has
been common in England. There Is the
oetrothal ring Of Martin Luther with
catherine Won Bora, which is composed
Oh an intricate device of gold work, set
with rnby-the emblem Of exalted love-
Inc gold devices represent all the SYM
oois oil the passion" In the centre is
the cruclhed Savior; on one side the spear
with which the side was pierced, and the
rod OF reeds; on the other is a branch of
hyssop; beneath are the dice which the
soldiers cast lots for the garment without
a seam and below are the three nails
The whole is arranged so as to make
large cross, surrounded by the ruby. In
side the ring are the names of the be-
trothed pair, and the wedding day in Ger
man-'Der l3 Junii 1926. This ringwa
presented to the intended wife at the be-
trOthal, and worn by her after marriage
The ring used at the nldfriage ceremO-
NAL was worn by Luther after the we'd
ding. This is a ''grimmeP ring, an en-

These rings are doubtless the design,
and probably the handiwork, Of Lucas

A Slave Capturing his Master ia
Battle

A Vicksburg correspondent. giving an
account of the late fight at Milliken's Bend
mentions the following:
Among the incidents of the fight wor.-.
thy of note was the capture of a rebel sol
dier by negro who was his slave three
months ago. The Texan was caught in a
tight place by one of Colonel Leib's men
who cried out to him. Hold on dar, and
put down your gun, or I'll shoot The
rebel surrendered uneonditionally, but af-
ter identifying his captor said to one Of
our officers that he protested against be-
ing held as prisoner by his own slave.
It's good enough for you, said the officer;
that's just the man to guard you. And,
Jim addressing the soldierl, if he don't
behave himself, shoot him down. The
chivalrous Southerner was very indignant
and his wrath effeIvesced in a series of
oaths, which fell upon the ears of the in
telligent eontraband without effect. The
dusky warrior kept close eve upon his
prisoner, but refused TO hold asy eonver-
sation with him, or answer any of his
questions as to when he enlisted, or how
he dared to level gun at his master.

THE cRITTENDEN RESOLUTIONS.

Do for heavens sake tell me how you
are going to do it except by fighting it out.
A Voice.-"Crittenden resolution"
Mr.. Brough.-It is said the Crittenden
resolution might bring itabout. Thisres-
olution was offered them before the war,
and not man was ready to take it, and
the North would have been very sorry if
they had accepted it. |, for one, spurn
the Crittendon resolutions, and do it for
the reason that the first gun fired upon
Sumptef, relieved us from the thraldom
of Slavery; and l never desire tosee peace
restored with the political power of this
institution reinstated What guaranty
have you, my friends, that the Critten-
den resolutions will secure peace, that it
would be acceptable to the other side, or
to the people of this side? My private
opinion is that it would not be accepted
by either. Politicians may talk as they
please, there are but two issues; one is to
acknowledge the Southern Confederacy,
and the other is submission on their part
to the demands of the Government. Let
any man of candor examine all the means
proposed, and he will not arrive at any
other conclusion than this. Why do you
desire peace? You tell me that you want
to stop the shedding of blood. Let me
tell you something l know in regard to
this point. The men who are fighting
our battles do not want you to make any
dishonorable peace to save them. All
that these gallant men ask of you is to
stop sowing dissensions, stop giving aid
and comfort to the enemy, and let them
fight it out. Applause. They do not
want any of your sympathy-it is all
thrown away. There are not any your
bones in danger, and L am afraid there
won't be unless you are conscripted by
and by. Laughter and cheers,

the life of me | cannot see how you are
going to get it. Do you expect it by tram
melting and binding the hands of the ma

men and money to carry on this war, or
