The Battle Of Shiloh
WHY it was Delayed.

"Mack," the correspondent OF
the Cincinnati Commercial, has
met in Nashville a Col. Morgan,
who represents himself as, during
the war, prominent officer Of
the Confederate secret service, and
from whom he gets the following
cause of General John sons delay
in bringing on the battle of Shiloh:
When Gen. A. S. Johnson was
forced to evacuate Nashville, and
was about to concentrate for the
battle of Shiloh, he sent Col.
Morgan to Huntsville to watch
Buell., and to let him know in time
so that he could strike Grant be-
fore Buell. joined him. A few
days before the battle of Shiloh,
Morgan telegraphed to Johnson
at Corinth that Buell. had crossed
Duck river with 3S, 400 men; that
he had lost 400 men by sickness
and exposure on the succeeding
twenty miles march, and that he
would reach Pittsburg Landing
at farthest on Saturday night.
He. concluded the dispatch by
urging Johnson to fight on Friday
or Saturday. Johnson replied,
"Your dispatch has been received;
and your suggestion will be COM
piled with" But what may be
termed an accident prevented the
carrying out of this plan, and
saved Grants army. There was
a large open marsh between CO.
rinth and the Federal position
The shortest way to the intended
battlefield lay through the marsh.
The engineer Of the Rebel army,
after a careful survey, reported
that the artillery could be hauled
across this route; but after the
first division had gone through
the roads were SO badly cut up as
to be impossible for the rest
Another road had to be selected,
and the march of the entire ar
my had to change. This delayed
matters so much that the Rebels
were not ready to open battle un-
til Sunday morning, which, though
a little too early for our side, pro-
we'd too late for them. There
have been various statements of
the causes of Sidney Jobnson's
failure to attack Grant before
Sunday morning, but | am con-
vinced the one | have just given
is correct.

DREAMING.

'Twas eve, and the hazy twilight
Had meilowed the fragrant air,
And, stretched IN the new-mown bayfield,
L Iconiured up visions fair.
In the heavens Ispelled out legend,
The Oldest that ever / knew;
Twas writ, midst the crimson cloud bands
go darling, I love but you!''
Beside me tiny dream-child
Was raking the sweet fresh hay,
And her saucy eyes half challenged me
As of old to game of play.
N.Long years since, o child haymaker,
told thee story true;''
And in my June dream 1 murmured,
80 darling, love but YOU -
Then faded my bright child-idol,
And maiden fair as the day
Joined in the pranks of careless troop
That revelled amongst the hay.
knew all the shadow faces,
Kate, Nelly, and little Sue,
And turned to the maiden and whispered
so darling, love but you"
The sun went down in his glory,
The haymakers vanished away,
And the crescent moon bade kindly
Farewell to the golden day.
The peeping stars lighted the legend,
Traced for aye in the heavens blue,
.'Oh darling, why will you not read it,
And know that 1 love but you?"

Women Riding Astride.

In Tolano county, California,
not long since, young lady was
killed by falling from the horse
ON which she was riding. While
her animal was going at full speed
she fell, and her skirts hanging
to the saddle, dragging her for
the distance of half; a mile, and
horribly mangling her body. At
ter announcing the fact, the San
Jose Mercury adds:
If she had been dressed in a
suitable riding habit, and had been
seated upon the horse in the only
safe manner in which horse can
be ridden-that is astride-no
such accident could have occurred.
A young lady from this city was
thrown from horse last week
and barely escaped with her life.
Accidents of this kind are alarm
ingly frequenR 1t is well that
ladies who practice horseback rid
ing are usually furnished with
gentle horses, or they would meet
with tar more accidents than they
now do. There is death on the
side-saddle, sure, for every woman
who follows the present dangerous
fashion of riding sidewise. 1t is
only a question of time; they are
all bound to break their necks IN
the end. IF ladies would enjoy
the beautiful pleasure of horse
back riding safe from such dan,
gerous accidents as that noted
above, they should wear the mod
est and beautiful Turkish riding
dress, and ride astride.
