On the Eve Of Battle.

Gen. Custer in his life on the Plains,
thus describes the prelude to what
might have been battle between the
United States troops and the Indians:
For a few moments appearances
seemed to foroshadow anything but a
peaceful issue. The infantry was in
the advance, followed closely by the
artillery, while my command, the cav
airy, was marching on the flank
General Hancock, who was riding
with his staff at the head of the col
umn, coming suddenly in view of the
wild fantastic battle array, which ex-
tended far to our right and left and
and not moro than half a mile in our
front, hastily sent orders TO the in
iantry, artillery, and cavalry to form
line of battle, evidently determined
that if war was intended we should be
prepared The cavalry, being the last
to form on the right, came into line
on gallop, and, without waiting to
align the ranks carefully, the COM
mand was given to "draw sabre" As
the bright blades flashed from their
scabbards into the morning sunlight,
and the infantry brought their mus.
kets to a carry, most beautiful and
wonderfully interesting sight was
spread out before and around us, pre-
.senting contrast which, to militia
ry eye, must be striking. Here in
battle array, facing each other, were
the representatives of civilized and
barbarous warfare. The one, with
but few notifications, stood clothed in
the same rude dress, bearing the same
patterned shield and weapon that his
ancestors had borne centuries before
the other confronted him in the dress
and supplied with the implements OF
war which the most advanced stage of
civilization had pronounced the most
perfect. Was tho comparative supc-
riority of these two classes TO be sub
jected TO be mere test of war hero
Such seemed the prevailing impression
on both sides. All was eager anxiety
and expectation. Neither side seemed
ito comprehend the object or intentions
of the other; each was waiting for
the other TO deliver the first blow. A
moro beautiful battle-ground could
not have been chosen. Not bush
or even the slightest irregularity Of
ground interviewed between the two
lines which now stood frowning and
facing each other. Chiefs could be
seen riding along the line as if direct
ing and exhorting their braves to
deeds of heroism. Fortunately before
coming to conflict matters were ex.
planned and the two bodies were soon
at work making treaty of peace, in.
stead OF fighting.

A FEMALE KNIGHT.--The Scranton
Times has an account of great ex.
.citement among the knights Of Py-
thias of that place. A nice looking
person, young and gcnteel, came to
Scranton, few months ago, giving
the name of Francis Williams. He
became acquainted at the boarding
house with several members Of the
knights Of Pythias lodge, and finally
expressed his desire to Join. He was
proposed, went through the usual
routine, was elected, received the
Pages degree, made favorable i'm
preston, advanced to the second de.
gree and was duly prepared for the
third or Knights degree, but in a GER
tain part of the work an unfortunate
pin breaking disclosed to all tho officers
and members present that they had
been initiating and giving the degrees
of the order to womdai The mem.
bers were startled and nonplussed, and
stor a long whilo silence reigned. Nc
one knew what TO do. 1t was finally
agreed that she should be kept under
supervision until the Worthy Grand
Chancellor could be heard from.

LOVES CHOICE.
ny WILLIAM wIxrKR.
The stroller In the pensiye field
Doth many 'wildering flower descry;
Sometimes to him the roses yield,
Sometimes tho lilies feed his eye;
Sometimes he takes delight in one,
Sometimes in all, sometimes in none.
But when, in dusky woodland ways,
lie sees, beside some dreaming stone,
The fresh, untutored violet raise
Her pleading eyes for him alone,
Then makes his heart its final choice,
And Nature speaks in PASSIONS voice.
The stroller beauty's garden through,
By many wayward impulse led,
Sometimes Is charmed by gold and blue,
Sometime by brown and mantling red;
Sometimes proud dame and maiden small
Please just the same, or not at all.
But when, remote from pleasures whirl,
lie sees, at homes sequestered shrine,
The ardent, cheerful, guileless girl,
of mortal mould, but soul divine
Too good, too beautiful to know
How fair her worth and beauty show
Then all his rowing fancies pause,
Entranced by this Overwhelming grace,
1t rules him by celestial laws;
II lights splendor in his face.
IT'S the best good that Heaven can give;
He wins it-and begins to live.

Judge Advocate Generals Report.

Judge Advocate General Holt, in his annual report to the Secretary of War of the U. s. says the examination in review by this bureau of the record of trials occurring in the different military de partments of the country brings con- stantly before it what is felt to be most serious defect in the administration of justice and a positive injury to the service, which is the inequality of sen- tences adjudged by different courts for identical offences. Desertion, for in- stance, in one department receives a punishment of from one to five years confinement at hard labor, while in another one years imprisonment is deemed ample expiation and this in cases which from the trial records appear to be in all respects deserving of the same proportion of punishment. The opinion is entertained that the service would be greatly benefited by the adop- tion of code providing specific penal ties for well-defined offences. The ab- sence of proper places of confinement for the enforcement of sentences, which leads to the designation of State peni- tentiaries by the department, is alluded to as having very demoralizing infu- ence upon soldiers subjected to the humiliating and degrading discipline of these institutions, and the Judge Advo- cate General thinks the erections of prisons at small cost, in different parts of the country, where prisoners might be placed wholly under military restraint, would not only save many good men to the service, but would also be an abso- lute economy of expenditure.

THE INSPECTOR GENERALS REPORT. =

THE INSPECTOR GENERALS REPORT. - Inspector General Marcy of the U. S. army, reports highly satisfactory per formance of the duties of the officers comprising his department, the varied nature and importance of which are fully set forth. He recommends the introduction of better material for cloth ing for enlisted men. He thinks the present system of fabricating the cloth ing might advantageously be modified by selecting for the permanent direction and control of the fabricating establish ment an officer of rank and experience, who has peculiar fitness for the posi- tion and business qualifications. The Inspector General thinks an early adop- tion and premulgation of the new code of army regulations is greatly to be desired, and is auxiously looked for by an army. Reports of different inspectors show there has been a continued i'm provement in the discipline, efficiency and moral tone of the troops, as well as the promotion of more careful regard for the economical administration of the public money and property.
