by a falling brick on the 4th OF July, is re-
garded by her physician as still in way of
recovering. The case is an exceedingly in

will be noted as rare in surgical practice.
The child, it will be remembered, was
struck upon the head by a fullsized brick
which fell from prof lection at the fifth story
of the american building, distant from the
ground about sixty feet, and when it struck
her head broke into several pieces. The
skull was crushed and broken from near the
base of the frontal bone, running back be-
yond. the apex. The little girl was knock
ed entirely! senseless. Two, hours after
the accident DR.. James II. Butler,
assisted by Or. Alexander Hill, removed
four pieces OF the parietal bone from the
left side OF the head, and extending over to
the right, leaving . portion OF the brain

skull, and where the skull was so badly
crushed the brain was broken into a jelly.

NEW JERSEY on FIRE.-A fire OF most
unusual character is in progress near the
Woodland Cemetery, on the Springfield V-
enue suburb Of Newark, n. j. A deep
peat-bog, which covers a large space in that
district, is on fire, in some places to depth
OF two and even three feet, and has been
burning for number OF days, the heat gra-
duully gaining in intensity as the burning
peat increased in extent and depth. Hot
smoke floats over the place and follows the
direction of the wind. On Tuesday, when
the wind was in the direction Of Springfield
avenue, the condition Of the atmosphere
became such as to be almost uncomfortable.
The bog has been thoroughly dried out by:
the hot sun of the last two weeks, and has
probably taken fire from sparks from the
salt meadows, which have been recently
burnt over. -

THE CARR1ER-P PIGEON AND. INDIAN WAR
FARE.--Our army engaged in fighting the
Indians in the northwestern Territories
could be furnished with very economi-
cal and effective mode Sof conveying urgent
intelligence to telegraph stations ormilitary
posts by the use OF the carrier pigeon. This.
bird, through Its instructive love Of home,
will find its way to its quarters from very
remote points, and in the Indian country It
could be rendered exceedingly. useful in
sending dispatches for aid, or communion
ting any manner OF intelligence. The recent
disaster to Custer and Reno could
have been reported in a few hours
by this means, instead OF several
days. In France IN important, branch
OF the military service is the carrier-pigeon
department, and dispatches have been sent
by the birds at as high rate Of speed as
seventy miles an hour. This is extraordi-
nary, however, the average rate being at
least thirty or forty miles. In all regions
isolated from telegraphic communication,
as our Indian country IN o great measure
is, the birds should be used. General Crook,
for instance, could send for reinforce
ments three hundred miles away from a
post in six or seven hours, or ina shorter
time, according to the training of the bird.
We believe the addition OF such a simple
adjunct to the service would be Of incalcu-
liable value during the Indian war. Pigeons
could be kept at all the military posts and at
certain tclegraphic stations on the Union
Pacific railroad, and could be taken. as re-
quired by detachments proceeding into the
wild regions in Wyoming, Montana or Da-
kota. In Turkey the use Of these birds is
universal, and they receive the most careful
and effective training in that country. The
French have paid greater attention to util-
iziag them for military purposes than any
other European nation. The German army
also makes use of their services Courier

THE SOUTHERN SOLDIERS IN Boston.
G. A. Hundley sends us copy Of. the Bos-
ton Herald containing an editorial article
entitled "Our Southern Visitors," of which
the following is an extract: -..
"If there is anything calculated to re-
mind us that we are one people and more
than ever united not only in the bonds OF
consanguinity, but in those Of mutual re-
gard, trust, confidence, and esteem, it is.the
generous alacrity with which the people Of
different sections in this centennial year
grasp hands across the bloody chasm. Last
year our southern friends from Virginia,
Maryland, and the Carolinas came North as
private citizens and as military organiza-
tons to Join with US in celebrating the GEN.
tennlal anniversaries OF the first battles OF
the Revolutionary war; and this year
our. representative citizens and mill
tary organizations have returned their
visits, enjoyed the generous hos
pitality of i, their people, and participated
with South Carolina in her commemoratien
Of the gallant defence OF Fort Moultrie.
And now, again, we have with us, in re-
spouse to invitations from Massachusetts
citizens, military organizations from Geor-
gia, South and North Carolina, and Old Yir-
ginia. Among them no doubt are brave men
who wore the gray. during the war Of the
rebellion; who fought us at Manassas, ut
charlottesville, and Fredericksburg who
were in the rebel rife-pts in the battles OF
the Wilderness, and who charged up the
sides OF the Cemetery Mount a. Gettysburg,
And they will meet here the boys in blue,
who withstood them, hand to hand and foot
to foot upon those and many another we'll
fought field; but all resolved that bygones
are to be bygones, and that henceforth we
are to live in the bonds OF q common bro
therhood and in the unity OF lasting
peace.'; .uss El ~ Ef,I- .-s.r 4 t4,f
