Row AT UHIoNvILLE. - A note from
Uuionviile Informs MS that the usual
quite of tue village was disturbed last
Monday by iracas between represen-
tatives OF Canada and Prussia, which
had its origin in too much whisky of
the fighting brand. In the fight which
ensued Canada got wors.ed, and the
services of medical man were called
into requisition to repair the damages
he sustained at the hands of the stall
wart Prussian. A face like raw beef
steak and eyes like the moon in total
eclipse, show that the war waged
was bitter and vindictiye between the
combatants.

Machinery Hall,

One Of the sights of the Exposition is
the starting of the Corliss Engine. 1t
requires only little early effort on the
part of the visitor, who must be in the
center of the southern aisle before nine
o'clock. They will have the highest ap-
probation of the scene, who on some pre-
vious afternoon visit have been deafened
by the noise, and bewildered by the COM
plicated movements of the numberless
machines, great and small AT half
past eight the vast hall echoes to the
footsteps and voices, that break upon the
previous Sabbath silence. The automat-
ic giants stand sullen, the pigmies rest.
A few early loungers sit in easy pose
about the space, their peaceful expression
in restful contrast with the aggressive,
bound-to-see it all look, they take on lat
er in the day but as the finger of the
great clock nears the minute, they watch
closely the men who are running up and
down and around, with oil can or wrench,
in vigilant anxiety. The very machines
seem to listen with heavier silence and
muter intensity. All, that was it the
touch of the iron wand in the hand of
that Lilliputian who so nimbly scaled
the limbs of this iron Gulliver, and
standing on his collar, touched button
just over his heart. The great Precentor
condescends to no obeisance he motions
to his band with his right arm, then with
bis left belt moves, the spindles turn
overhead, massive wheels slowly revolve,
a shaft moves out of its place and back.
Precentor Corliss motions again a spray
of water shoots into the air, a cascade
trembles from hidden source, crystal
curtain hangs itself in space and drops
with great splash into the pool-the
music and the ballet have both begun.
The giants pound and stamp, the pig
mics courtesy and trip. Faster and fast
er the Precentor beats the time faster,
louder and higher rises the mad music,
faster, wilder and fercer the demoniacal
gurgle, splash, rumble, hum, buzz, spin,
thrash, pound, dance. The ball is fairly
opened the automatic demons are in
the ascendant, blatant and aggressive,
and men, deafened and bewildered, have
again become voiceless, Insignificant, aud
subservient. 1t is in order now to rush
past the whirlwind breath Of the mine
ventilator, to climb to the head of the
waterfall, and when dizzy, descend aEd
take peep into the red hearts Of the
outlaying furnaces, BY this time all
desire for sensation is satiated happy
are they who know definitely what they
wish to see, and are able to find it. The

An Eek Confederate's Story about
Custer,

The Washington Star relates the fol-
lowing interesting estimate of Gen. Gus
ter from confederate stand point. At
Brandy station, Pleasanton, after retreat
ing slowly all day, made stand, and
there was very sharp and stubborn fight
ing all the day In a charge made di-
rectly at the station upon light battery
that was cutting up our men with sehrap-
mel very severely, ! was unlucky enough
to be cut off from my command, and
discovering my misfortune too late to
| remedy it, L put spurs to my horse and
galloped, through mistake, directly into
the ranks of a squad from a regiment
whose troops were made up of deserters
from the confederate army. Twas treat
ed outrageously, literally stripped of ev-
erything, and about to be shot, when
General Custer rode up with his staff
and body guard. Seeing him in the
gaudy hussar jacket, with the Austrian
knot of rank on the arm, supposed him
to be one of our officers and hailed him.
He came up to me, and seeing my pitiful
condition, and being informed that my
captors had threatened to shoot me, be
called his orderly, Here, orderly, this
man is fellow-being and not brute
have him put under guard at headquar-
ters." And then, turning to an aid, he
said, put these men under arrest" /
remained under guard at Clusters head
quarters during the whole of the retreat
and was treated most nobly and kindly
by those around him | never met q
man so young who, to my mind, bore the
stamp of hero so visibly impressed on
his countenance, and though daring and
dreadful in charge, and in the heat of
combat almost merciess, his mild, gem
tie, kindly manner to me when the fight
was over, plainly shows what vast
amount of human kindness beat beneath
that brave dragons breast. To him [
owed my life, while still an enemy, and
to his memory ! humbly add my testi-
mony to those noble attributes which
those who have ever met him know he
possessed in so remarkable degree.

IMPERFECT MAsTICATIoN.-Let it be
remembered that the best cookery Of the
best viands in the world is comparative
ly thrown away, in its health-giving and
nourishing qualities, if the food be swal-
lowed hastily and in Jumps.
There are some supremely virtuous
beings who adopt scornful disregard
of what and how they eat and drink
and, pretending to be above such mum
dane considerations, bring themselves to
a chronic state of ill-health, which it
takes years of strict regimen to recover
from. No; you must linger over the
taste of your food as you linger over the
smell of flower. Nature demands of
you this concession to health, and there
can be nothing more sinful in indulging
the sense Of taste than the sense of smell
Having swallowed your dinner in Jumps,
the usual custom is to endeavor to coun-
teract the discomfort produced by wash
ing it down, and rendering it soluble by
huge draughts of fluid. This is mere
ly adding insult to the injury you have
done your stomach, and is resented ae.
cordingly. Copious draughts are just
as injurious as large quickly devoured
mouthsful, and drink should be taken as
cautiously and slowly as food. = TGnsley's

HATE PREACHERS. u heard this re
mark in crowd some weeks ago. He
was well dressed, and had, to a superb.
cial observer, the appearance of gen
tleman. Yet when you observed him
closely you saw something about him
that made YOU feel that you would hesi-
tate to trust him asked friend in
an undertone, "who is this man that hates
preachers
One of the most notorious gamblers in
the city.
No wonder that he dislikes those who
labor to make men wiser and better.
He lives and fattens on the ignorance
and vices of others His business is to
lie and cheat. The hatred of such a
man is the best evidence that preachers
are not, as some assert, either hypocrites
or drones, that their moral power is felt
in all the haunts Of sin. Bad men often
profess to have great respect for the
church and ministry. But in their heart
of hearts they hate us, and that hatred
is the highest compliment they can pay

OUTWARD Much of the
happiness of life depends on our outward
demeanor. We have all experienced
the charm of gentle and courteous con-
duct; we have been drawn irresistably
toward those who are obliging, affable
and sympathetic in their demeanor. The
friendly grasp, the warm welcome, the
CHEEKY tone, the encouraging word, the
respectful manner, bear no small share
in creating the joy of life, while the aus
tere tone, the stern rebuke, the sharp and
acrid remark, the cold and Indifferent
manner, the curt and disrespectful air.
the supercilious and scornful bearing are
responsible for more of human distress,
despair and woe, than their transient ma
lures might seem to warrant.

IDLE WORDS s-Be careful with re-
gard to what you say while in conversa-
tion with those you love. Idle words
have done much mischief, and still may
do more. Harmless as they seem, and
innocently as they may be uttered. their
effects are often baneful in the extreme.
BY the utterance of single word, near
and dear friends have been estranged
for ever nations that have always been
at peace, and on terms of friendly inter-
course, have been set at open variance;
and, through their influence, the har-
mony before existing between families
and neighborhoods has been broken, and
friendship with them exists no longer.

THE MEDICINE THAT CURES
VEGETINE.

Taking into consideration the character of its
vouchers, the history of its cures and the immeuse
increasing demand Vegetine may be fairly entitled
the leading medicine Of the age.
For Sorofua in the blood, Vegetine is an infalibls
remedy. and no person need suffer IRON tumors, al
GERS and all diseases arising from impure blood, il
Negetne is used according TO directions. There is
not case of SeIotula in existence that Vegetine
will not cure provided however the vi IA functions
have not lost their power Of action, all that may be
said to the contrary notwil hstanding
Negetne is pleasant to the taste, mild in its infu
ence. and absolute in its action on disease the
following unquestionable evidence will show.
