Some may find its parallel in the his
tory Of Leonidas and his three hun
dred some may seek fer like sacrif-
ces amid the annals OF the Scottish.
Chiefs or Polish patriots. But it is on
ly when we turn the thrilling chapters
Of our old Border history that we read
and re-read, in intensified form, the
bloody story Of Rose Bud and Big
Horn Rivers. Custer and his three
hundred ambushed by willy foe and
melting away in death before odds
rendered doubly and terribly formida-
bic by bewildering shrieks and steal

hundred Years Ago.
Or if other parallels be sought, they
abound in the same brilliant, stirring

Bloody Run, Crawford and Battle

The new story, whether Of victory

or adventure, treachery or dash, hard

the old with its quaint and primitive
portraitures, haloed about by thrilling
traditions, and sancti6ed to us by the
facts that our fathers were part of it

Border Life, Present and Past

The terrible fate of Custer and his
gallant three hundred adds another
tragic chapter to the great book of
Border events, whose beginning dates
from the earliest settlements of our
country. whose end will be only when
the Indians as race shall have be-
come extinct.
The horrors Of the Modoc campaign
are yet fresh in our memories. The
historic Lava Beds, Indian cunning
battling the skill Of our soldiery for so
long time, savage malignity and
treachery eliminating in the death of
the brave Candy and others whose mis-
sion was honorable treaty and peace
all these are still remembered with
a shudder, Their parallels in device
and atrocity are only found in deeds
that compose the history of the Dark
and Bloody Ground" or among those
which mark the bloody tracks of the
treacherous Mingoes, descending from
their Great Lake fastness upon the
unsuspecting tribes and settlements of
the susquehanna and Allegheny.

sprung upon the country SO suddenly,

OUR CORRESPONDENCE.
The Major in Frostburg.
FRosrBURG, July 26, 1876

tROSTBURG, july 70, 1910.
Dear Journal :-Frostburg is one of
the many places where numerous
events are hourly and daily transpir-
ing, the smaller ones being carried
forward and reckoned like treasures
of the past, while others of greater
magnitude, involving historical inter-
est, are permitted to fall into forget
fitness. We are reminded of this
general popularity Of town people
during our present sojourn and inter
course with the citizens. In this corr
nection it will be remembered, per-
haps, that some months ago we paid
you flying visit. We are here
again, not as josh Billings, Mast or
the Danburg Nesps man, but as a kind
Of gumelastic, imaginary character,
"takin notes amang ye," of things
found, seen and heard.
It is we'll to say here that was
born lucky-a fortune which has taken
singular aptitude Of finding and see
ing things invisible to mortal ken. ="
Hence, | am better off than if l was
rich. Ny first discovery on this &C.
casiop was made near the post-otfice,
and consisted Of two packages Tabled
respectfully Democratic and Republi
can documents. The former contain
I'd ,wsnty-one applications ier the
Frostburg post-ottee, subject TO the
Issue Of the approaching pcesldential
election: also, numerous suggestions a.
to proper rersous tor appointments as
Revenue Collectors and Whisky -Gau-
gers. The latter contained corrupt
ed renlnan, Of n bloody shirt tina; fail
ed to get through the Cincinnati wash
ing-machnc without tearing. -'
Our investigation of these articles
of ,a,tu attracted the attention of
number otpersons congregated in the
shade of the huge buildings which
now adorn the neighhorhood. We an
ticipated the general curiosity and put
orr discoveries away TO wait for the
offer of 5000 reward. Diverting at
tention, therefore, from ourself, we
took a birds-sye view, az it We're, of
the crowd. Some in large arm. chairs
some on skids, barrels, boxes, steps,
anything that provided an upturned
surface of four inches square. There
was "full board present, q. all the
reserved seats had been taken early
= and often. Perched along the street
at different attitudes, cross-legged and
recnn,bent, all looked their normal
best. IS We discerned in their glowing
countenances, enterprise, industry,
large-heartedness. This was but one
session Of several held daily sortot
branch Congress, devising ways and
means to establish Summer Resort
to. be built, like Solomon's temple,
without the sound Of hammer. We
left them piling imaginary brick and
mortar, putting in phantom furniture,
and supplying other fine appliances
Fastening on toward the Public School
Building, small boy showed us the
portraits of the lately appointed trus-
tees. Not being acquainted with the
gentlemen, we took the liberty to
phrenologize the fac ssn'aies, coming

Directions for Using
REIp'S IRISH BLEACHING SOAP.
Warranted not to Injurs the Finest Fabric,
and has a tendency to Soften Hands.

Out one-half pound of Soap into small
~ shavings, and dissolve in FIVE gallons
of hot water, and then put in as many pie
ces of clothes as the solution viii cover, let
then, soak or 10 minutes; then little
hand rubbing will make them rs clean as
hours of hard machine rubbing would do
with ordinary soap.
When clothes are not much soiled, no
rubbing is required.
Wiring them out Of the solution, then
treat them the same as though they had
bern washed in the ordinary way.
When one lot of clothes is removed from
the solution, replace with another.
This Soap is warranted perfectly free
from anything injurious, and a careful ana
lysis has proved that its ingredients cannot
injure the finest fabrics. 1t is also an ex-
cellent Shaving Soap For cleaning Paint,
use sponge or cloth saturated with the
solution; 1t will leave the part bright and
uninjpredi the repeated use of it on painted
wood tends to make its glossy.
4 For removing Paint, Grease Spots, &c,
from Clothing, dip one end of the Soap in
hot water and rub on the soiled spots; then
with linen towel and warm water, wash
the Soap of; if the spots are of long stand
ing, repeat the operation. BIZ
This Soap being very dry and pure does
not dissolve easily, but must he Thoroughly
Boiled in W ter To make it dissolve.
Mouselin de LANES, Cashmeres, Woolens,
Flannels, &C., are rendered soft and
smooth, but should not be boiled.
All fast colors are made bright and clear
with this soap. Dresses can be washed
without ripping ~
P. S-To get the full benefit of this
Soap, it should always be dissolved in boil
ing water, and the solution used while
warm. Manufactured only by a.

THRRE is strong talk, both through.
the Neaus and A1eganian, that the
democratic and republican parties in
Allegany county are each without an
organ" to represent the two party
interests as ably and popularity as
that sort of work should be done.
Having their word, for this lamentable
state Of affairs we suggest that the es-
Enlistment Of such papers as are
needed is matter Of early and in
dispensable Importance. The CAM
paign is already open with the heavi-
est work of the age upon us. There
is to be shifting hip and thigh, Graeco-
Roman wrestling, de .facto political
pugilism-everything decisively ag-
gressive and defensive. This is no
time for weak kneed, lukewarm an
tagonism, but one for vigorous as
sault and unfaltering resistance. 1t
the existing "organs" can and will give
us the arenic display the occasion calls
for, there is no need of further outlay.
We expect to hear Of fairs" and
"fouls," but to make the appeals spicy
and thrilling they must come from

There is decrease both in exports
and imports, and that in exports is
the larger beng 81 per cent. as COM
pared with 7 per cent in imports.
Moreover, the year 1875 was one of
decline I; SO that these figures indicate
a prolon CATION Of that general decline
which has been SO often noticed. The
Times argues, however that the coun-
try is still able to bear the trial. pro-
Ionged and severe though it be, and
with that negative comfort it urges
contentment for the present.
