The ENGLISH VETERANs.-They have some
officers in the English army who are veterans
indeed. The British war office has Just required
the time and kind of service Of all the colonies
in the army. The colonel of the Coldstream
guards, Sir W. Comm, who was an ensign in
l794-iust IS years ago-and who is now to be-
come constable of the tower in succession TO Sir
George PollOck-furnishes the following scrap
OF biography: "Seryed on the expedition 10 the
l1elder in 1893, including two actions: in France
and Spain in 1900; in Hanover, 1905; and siege
OF Copenhagen in 1907; Pennsular campaign
1S0S'9; present at the battles of Roleia, Yimere,
and Corunna; expedition TO Walcheren, and
siege oil Flushing in 1909; Peninsula, 1870 in
Guiding battles Of Busaco and Fuentes d Onor,
Badaioz, Salamanca, Nittoria, San Sebastian
Niyelle, and Niye, and investment of Bayonne;
campaign OF 1915; present at Quatre Bras and
Waterloo Of Lieut.. Gen. Law, colonel of
the list foot, the official biography saws:
Served with the retreat under Sir John
moore, at tue action Of Lago, and at the
battle OF Corunna; expedition TO Walcheren;
served ~ the Peninsula from 1910 to 1914 at
Torres Vedras, Badajoz (woundcd) battle Of
Niye, Pyrenees, ETC., etc served in the campaign
OF 1878, including the battle of Waterloo (se.
Yerely wounded); served three years ia the army
of occupation in France" Not the least curious
feature Of these statements is the number of
wounds which these veteran heroes havesurvyed
TO so great an age. The cOlonel.commandant
Of the rife Brigade Gen Sir Charles Yorke, was
wounded at Nyelle; he was severely wounded
at Orthes; at Badsios he was again wounded
guards, was wounded at Yitioria, at Busaco, and
in the American war. The colonel Of the 10th
foot, Lieut. Gen. Macdonald after having served
IN Hanover in 1905 iulSlcily in 1S06-10, in Spain
~ 1872, and in Canada In 1914, found himself in
the Waterloo campaign. AT the great battle he
was wounded no fewer than three times-"in the
nv, 10 the neck, and through the body, wounding
the lungs"

Soldiers, Attachment to Commanders.


The Toledo Blade tells this anecdote illustrat-
ing the affection and confidence which General
Grant inspired in his soldiers:
As a general rule soldiers did not show en-
thuSiasm in grand movements, because they
understood movements only in results. 0cca-
SiOnally they were in the generals cOnid ence,
as at Stone River, where ROsecrans stated hls
case in an order read the morning of the battle.
The boys knew what Old Rosy meant and they
commenced work with rare enthusiasm. Twist
the lines as you would, separate divisions, cut
off brigades, run over regiments, confuse the
corps, donble up and change front, it was "the
same old fight" and the men worked away
with Old Rosy's order in mind and from first to
last the battle was on the dramatic plan of
action.
AT Chckamauga, the troops didn't under
stand the situation. They were looking for a
light Job, and found a heavy contract. They
didn't comprehend the greatness OF the occasion
nor the necessity for great effort. To the men
lighting in the woods or along the stream, the
battle was simply Hell in Georgia" and even
after ii was over they did not understand it.
The army that retired to Chattanooga knew
RoSecrans, Thomas, and the corps and division
commanders well. They had definite ideas
about these men, and home feeling for them.
They were all in the family. When ROsecranS,
Crittenden and McCook left, and it was an
nOunced that Grant commanded the entire
western district, vague feeling of home sick
ness took possession of The men. They resent
ed the coming of Hooker and his two divisions
from the east, and looked with suspicion on the
new combinations that broke down the old lines
| distinguishing divisions and corps. The men
at Chattanooga did not know Grant. They had
seen him and liked him because he "neyer
squealed," but he wasn't in the family, and
they wanted Thomas to get them out of the
| scrape The situation of an army was never
more dramatic than was that of the army be-
| sieged at Chattanooga. The men were prepared
| for ANYTHING from the very circumstances Of the
| case
One dav a man detailed to go TO town as one
| of "A squad to unload rations, came plungng
into camp with Grants comeP 1t was a
| tremendous sentence, and changed the atmos-
phere of camp, just why the men could not tell
because they were inclined to look upon Grant
as an intruder, and were not influenced by en-
| thusiasm. The last they had heard of him he
was at New Orleans, laid up with a lame leg.
But they scarcely questioned the declaration Of
the messenger, and he proceeded to say: ''He
came limpin' round with cane; takin' OBJ
saIves, Won know, quite as a private, but he
could't fool me. Says | to myself, Whats he
limpin' round CHATTANOOGA for?"
At midnight came an order TO move silently
to the rear leaving tents standing. 1t was a
retreat, then, and Grant was abused soundly
The division crossed the river hurriedly, and
daylight found them well up the ridge. The

IHE QUAGGA, A SUBSTITUTE FOR THE
HoRsE.-Probaby most of our readers know
no more OF the quagga than what they have
learned by seeing its picture in the school geo.
graphies or in books of African travel. MANY
naturalist; think that Africa was the original
country OF the horse, and there is very little
DOUBT That 1t was in northern Africa the horse
was first brought under the subsection of man.
In Africa also, the quagga is found, and there
in like manner, it has been domesticated. The
quagga has the form, light figure and small
head and ears of the horse 1t is swift and
strong, docile and obedient, and easily domesti-
Gated 1t is capable of every variety of service
performed by the horse, and naturaists saw that
by little care on the part of man it might be
rendered an exceedingly valuable beast Of bur
den. 1t Is about four feet high at the shoulders
and neck, has slender legs and an asiniue tail.
1t is an exceedingly beautiful animal Its neck
and fore parts arc dark brown, elegantly striped
with broad black bands; il has dark line on
the back; its hinder parts arc light brown.
and it has white legs. Button believed that the
quagga was originally hybrid between the
horse and zebra; but if this be 50, its hybridity
has not interlered with it permanent powers of
propagation. II has an advantage over the
horse, in that its flesh is savory though of
rather coarse fiber, which makes ii all
the more attractive to the natives. The
horse has been eaten, and, at the present day
is used for food to some extent in Paris: but
horse meat is too rank for the palate, and the
attempts ofFrench savans to introduce ID among
the higher classes have not been successful,
There would be no such difficulty in regard TO
the quagga. Quaggas are found wild in large
herds on the plains of southern Africa; and.
though swift and alert, they are not hard to
catch. They could be brought to this country
by the thousands in the course of a year or two.
Some years ago an Englishman took number
Of quaggas to London, and the people were de.
lighted at seeing in the streets a team of quag.
gas harnessed to a curricule.-- Cincinnati Com

BRIGANDs OUTwITTED BY A WoMAN.--A
story comes from Athens about Greek brigand-
age very refreshing to honest people, and sur.
gestlYe OF tthe question whether women might
not govern Greece better than its men. One of
the curses of modern Hellas, as everybody
knows, is the ineXtirpated guild of hrigands,
who niest the land, defying the government,
SURPRISING commerce, demoraizing the peas
antry, and robbing and numbering strangers or
rich natives. One of these unhanged villains
lately captured the youthful son of widow
woman OF property, well known upon the bor-
der. The usual message was sent down from
the hills; the brigand chief must have one thou
sand drachmas by certain day, or the life of
the boy-he was only twelve years old-would
pay the forfeit. As usual too, the last hone
which mother could cherish in such a fright
Jul position was the chance of government help
Inc wretchedly, weak administrations which
play at I'm and out" in Athens still allow these
scoundrelS to hold the roads and passes of the
country, and this poor woman had to trust to
her own courage and wits. Neither were want
ing; there was some true old Odessyan
blood in her, and she hit upon plan for saving
both h er child and her drachmaS. She had a
brother, young fellow of perfect pluck though
his cheeks were as smooth as the Delian Apollo's,
and him she dressed up carefully as a Greek
girl Having appointed to meet the robber
chief in certain spot, she took up two hundred
drachmas and present of cakes and fruit, the
Greek girl going with her as "guide." On
reaching the place they found the scoundrel
waiting. with the captive lad bound hand and
foot beside him. The woman first ascertained
by cunning questions that the man was really
alone, and then offered, with many supplica-
mons, her money and the present Of cakes and
frult. The villain took the latter and munched
while he counted out the drachmas; then, with
a fierce oath, he said it was far too little; that
she must go back and send enough to make up
thousand, or the head of the lad would be
sent down to her without delay. While the
woman chung duplicating to his knees, the
Greek girl suddenly flung a grip of iron
round the robbers arms, and, as the fellow was
thus pinioned, the outraged mother drew
loaded pistol and shot him dead. The pair lost
no time in bberating the lad, nor did they forget
to cut off and wrap in a cloth the head of the
chief" and, as a reward of three thousand
drachmas had been set upon this precious arti-
Gle, they made quite an excellent days business
OF it, on arriving safe and sound at their own
village Telegraph.
