FIoHTrNG IN EUROPE " AMERICA
In point of the numbers engaged and the
rapidity Of movements, and also of results,
the late battle of Sadowa was one Of the
greatest-if not tho greatest-ever fought
in Europe. Five hundred thousand men
were brought into direct collision with
each other, and fought for ten hours,
whilst the casualties were at least $4,000.
This was quick work, but in the proper
ton of losses bears but slight comparison
to many of the battles fought during our
late rebellion. At Sadowa the losses were
in the proportion of one to twenty
whilst in several Of our battles they were
as one to five, and nearly always reached
as high as one to ten.

WHO Owns THE CHILD s-The Atlanta
hteRigsncer lays before the public the
pathetic story Of a lost child that wishes
to find its parents. 1t appears that dur
ing General Sherman's great march "down
to the sea-" a little girl six years Of age,
followed the Union army, although from
what part of the country she came none Of
the soldiers were able to tell. She be-
came a great pet among the soldiers, and
remained with the marching columns till
they reached Savannah, and then, turn
ing northward, finally encamped at Smith
field, North Carolina. Here a lady, who
had a little girl Of about the same age as
the wandering child, induced the soldiers
to give the truant to her, and she has
been at Smithfeld ever since. As she is
anxious to find her parents, her romantic
history has been given to the public, in
the hope that they may learn her where
abouts.

The RUNS OF CHARLgsroN.-Thus far
but little effort has been made toward re-
building the burnt district of Charleston,
South Carolina, chiefly because the ma
jority Of the old property owners are
without means to undertake it. An at
tempt, however, has been made, by q
concerted action Of the citizens, under the
authority OF the city government. A
proposition has been introduced into the
Charleston City Councils, by which, il
adopted. seven per cent. bonds will be is
sued by the city and loaned to all prop
erty holders who wish to rebuild. The
basis Of the arrangement is a mortgage
of the ground and buildings upon it to
| the city. II a lot is worth $4,000, and
the owner wishes to build a store upon it
costing $4,000, bonds to the latter
amount are to be loaned him, he giving
the city a mortgage of his lot and the
buildings to be erected upon it as secu-
rity. He also binds himself to pay the
interest on the bonds semi-annually, in
advance, and in order to get money to
erect his building he must sell his bonds
wherever he can. Some such method as
this, by which the credit of the credit Of
the community is loaned to the individ-
ual, seems imperatively necessary to the
rebuilding OF the burnt district Of
Charleston.

ard Wood was removed from his position in

DEAR SIR: Your note of the nth instant.

legged cause been discharged" and asking

ed.
The department does not hold itself bound

that ii makes.
But Mr.. Wood is under stood to be an &C.

of those who sustain him in his efforts to re-
establish the Union.
The administration, and those connected
with it, would fail in their duty to the coun
try were they to retain in the employment o.

How TO BE BEAUTIFUL AND HAPPY.-Men and

sympathy with that class whose disheveled locks
fly in every direction, when with the least care
their whole heads may be made surprisingly beau
tful. Every white, gray and faded lock may be
restored to its original color, beauty and lustre,
while the scalp is clesnsed from it's flying dand-

there is none. But how can this be done7 By

1t is well in these times to look little in
to the history of those who aspire to repre-
sent ''loyaW people. Here is leaf from
John A. Logan's record, which it will hurt
no one but him to have extensively read. In
1861 John A. Logan attended meetings
where the following sentiments were adopt
ed, and gave them his counsenance and sup
port:
l. We are opposed to arming and organiz-
ing the militia, except for home defence.
. We are opposed to our Legislature vot-
ing one cent to aid in equipping troops 20 be
sout out of the state for the purpose of pros.
ecuting the unnecessary war inaugurated by
the present administration.
8 We call upon the people of southern
Illinois TO stand unltedly as mediators be-
tween the north aud the south.
i. We solemnly and earnestly protest
against the occupation of any portion of
southern Illinois by troops from either SEQ
ton.
