til sun down.
At about 2 O'Clock, the sound Of cannon

no indications Of advancing, and the sun vent
Passing Gen schoacld's headquarters,
saw several Of the flags captured BY his CON-
mand at Franklin. Very few Of them have
any mark OF inscription to show to what com-
mand they belonged. The names Of the per
sous who captured them, as far as could
learn, Were Ms follows:
Major Ed. Mo1ltneux, 175th Ohio Volunteer
Infantry, captured ono full Of bullet-holes.
Captain ". H. Langstaif, company E, r75th
Ohio Volunteer Infantry, captured one.

It will be seen TINT eight out Of nine flags

The great point to be gained in order 10 secure

most cases Of waketulness, has possession of the
mind. j always effect this by the following sim
pie process IL turn my eyebalis as far to the
right or left, or upwards or dOwnwards, as 1 can
without pain, and then commence rolling them
slowly, with that divergence from direct lne of

dong thus until fail asleep, which Oclurs gene
rally within three minutes-a ways within five,
at the most The immediate effect of this pro-
eedure differs from tha of any other that have
ever heard 10 procure sleep. IL not merely di-
Verts thought into new channel, but actually
suspends it. Since l became aware of this
have endeavored, innumerabe times, while thus
rolling ny eyes, 10 think upon q particular sub
JeCt, and even upon that which before kept me
awake, but L coulG not.
"As long as ihey were moving around my mind
