Madrid.-De tails of the severe battle
which has just been fought between the
Spanish government troops and the forces
of Don Carlos have been received in the
city. The reports show that General Dor
regaray, the Carlist commander, defeated
General Nouyillas, who directed and led
the operations of the division of the Army
Of the Republic. The government troops,
commanded by General NouvilIas, attack
ed the Carlists in their fortified position on
the Heights of Mourial, near Pamplona,
the capital of the Province of Navarro,
distant about twenty miles from the French
frontier. The fight was exceedingly ami
mated, and maintained with great vigor on
both sides to the close. The troops of the
Republic, under Nouvillas, were compell-

TIE Executive Committee OF the
Grand Army of the Republic in this
city has done . graceful and appropri-
ate and sensible thing in divesting
Decoration Day" Of all partisan sig'
nificance and inviting all who have
lost friends in the late civil strife, no
matter what uniform they wore or
under what leader they fought, to show
respect to their memory by strewing
flowers upon their graves. At the
tomb all warfare ceases. all resentment
is ut an end and we doubt not that
il the dead Of either army could speak.
they would bestow the highest praises
for true gallsntry upon those by whose
hands they fell. All were Americans !;
all were actuated by the common inn
pulse Of patriotism, and. in their sew
eral opinions, all fought for the right.
Let US do homage to the bravery with
which they met death, and let us pay
due tribute to the zeal that led them to
lay down their lives for the common
good.
To the heroes whose bodies lie un-
derneath the sod these floral offerings
can give no new enjoyment, no new
title to the blessings Of the dead, but to
the living they may symbolic the bu-
rial of useless and Anticipated antipa-
thies and by one touch of nature make

A Good Annette.

We take the following from the St.
Louis Democrats Obituary Of the Man
with the Iron Jaw:
His diet, during his younger days
was simple and nutritious, and consis-
ted chiefly OF sheet iron griddle cakes,
garnished with carpet tacks, cast iron
(dough) nuts, which he bolted without
chewing, maleable biscuit, fish hooks,
parboiled and served with quinine sauce,
while for dessert he never ate more than
two ten penny nail tarts, a horse shoe
dumping, or something Of that sort:
As he mstured, however, and his
system required more solid food, be
boarded at iron foundries and first class
blacksmith shops. where the bill OF fare
was more diversified. Pig iron outlets,
r rails on toast, wagon tires sliced in
blue vitrol, and cold snvils, were all
favorite dishes, while for breakfast he
simply ate coal skuale full Of iron
filings, hashed and served warm, a plate
of screws, stewed, and piece Of sbingle
nail pic. He was also passionately
fond Of crow bars and old Lightning rods
cut up in FIVE foot lengths, which he ate
as school boy would licorice
But Notwithstanding all this he is
gone, and we fall back on the Philadel-
pbia Ledger once more for words to ex-
press our feelings:
Farewell thou man OF Iron Jaw,
Your labors are all ore;
No more on hoop iron you will chaw,
You'vereached the Golden shore.
And now that you have quit earth's
scenes,
And mingle with the blest,
Be not disturbed by earthly dreams,
But give you Jaws rest"
Gone, but not forgotten by the iron
mongers

TIE MtslGgsncer has come peculiar
sources Of information concerning the

party in this State that are quite mac

the opposite Of what our neighbor as

PUnIfY THE AIR.

From present indications our city
authorities have resolved to perpetrate
the folly Of not locking the stable
door until after the horse has been
stolen. The summer is now fairly
begun and it's heat is rapidly increasing
The garbage and slops in back alleys
and in cutters where the drainage Is
defective are already fermenting and
have begun TO emit their poisonous
fumes. And yet there are no indica"
tions of q desire to cleanse the city OF
its accumulated filth or to disinfect the
poisonous pools Of corruption that may
be found in almost every square.
fla few well defined cases Of cholera
were to appear in our midst and termi-
nate fatally. who can doubt that a
wonderful activity would be at once IN
fused into the work OF cleaning up; that
the cutters would be sprinkled with
lime that disiufectants would be placed
Immediately in every filthy corner Z
Why do we wait for the unnecessary
death OF some OF our citizens before
proceeding to employ the means which
science has given for the preservation
Of health2 The city in its present COM
dition invites pestilence, and, even
though we may escape the ravages Of
the more terrible epidemics that some-
times slay thousands in single day,
vet all other forms Of disease must be
necessarily aggravated by the poisonous
condition OF the atmosphere. ,
We believe that the general health
of the city is now as good as it ever Is
at this season OF the year. There are
com aratively few sick, and their dis
eases yield as readily as usual to treat
meut. But there is no truth better es>
tablished than that this favorable
state of health will not continue during
many weeks. longer unless some effect
i've effort is speedily made to cleanse
the streets and alleys and back-yards.
A man might just as nationally thrust
his hand into the fire and expect to es'
cape being burned, as to expect the cltl'
Gems of Wheeling to continue to enjoy
good health while breathing the vapors
that arise every day in increasing VOL
ume and strength from the cutters and
cesspools OF the city.
The Health Officer lie, we believe, in
vested with plenary power to compel
the necessary cleansing Of the premises
of citizens, and of the localities that are
more directly under public charge. If
he has not sufficient authority, the
Council should invest him with it at
once. tits almost impossible to traverse
single square in any quarter OF the
city without having ones nostrils as
sailed by the odor of the steaming
cutters, and every succeeding day adds
to the discomfort and the danger. Let
us waste no more time in talking about
the matter, but proceed at once to put
the city in good sanitary condition.
