A GREAT BATTLE AT sOFTCHA.

London, August "A great battle is still
going on at Sof1cha The blow struck st the
Ninth corps by Osman Pasha atPlevin on the
10Th of July was 80 severe that the Eleventh
corps on the outskirts of Rutschuck was COM
PEELED to move seventy miles West. 1t was
not until yesterday that the Russians were
prepared to renew the engagement. At that
time the entire force consisted Of about
65 900 men They were drawn up in three
columns on the plain beside the river Vida.
The order was given them to advance on
Softcha, where Osman Pasha with 5000
men was entrenched behind hastily thrown
up earth-works Great embarrassment was
caused by the hardness of the artillery train,
which could only be dragged through the mud
with greatest difficulty. halt was made
on the nights overlooking Softcha, and upon
the spur letting from the bridge one could
see the white tents of the Turkish army, hard
by the river side, beyond the town.
THE ATTACK
Was decided on at all hazards, and the artil-
lery was brought into position. The first
roars of the cannon was promptly re-echoed
from the. Turkish entertainments, and then
began the most furious artillery duel, from
which the Russian troops did not escape
unframed. The Seventeenth and Eighteenth
regiments of infantry of the avant -garde were
swept through and through by the iron mis-
seles, piling dead and wounded in sickening
heaps together. In the midst of this the
order was given to
STORM THE POSITIONS.
In accordance with the usual Russian tactics.
Calamity the Cassocks of the Ninth Corps
rushed to the attack Down the road they
dashed under cloud of smoke. The fght-
ing for long time was almost hand to hand,
the Turks making frequent sorties from
behind the shelter of the red cross. The at
PENDANTS were unable to carry of the wounded
50 fearful was the slaughter.
THE RETREAT.
At last the order was given to retire and the
Russian guns gradually ceased firing. The
Turks did not follow up the enemy, evidently
expecting a renewal of the attack on the
morrow. The total loss OF the Russians, 50
far as ascertained, is not less that 8, 900 killed
and 5000 wounded.
EXCITEMENT IN LONDON
There was considerable excitement in Lon
don last night, during which the evening
papers exhausted edition after edition of
extras, so active was the demand that the
news caused. This was the announcement
Of q great Turkish victory along the whole
line of the Balkan mountains.
The British troops, which recently en-
Darked for foreign service, sailed under orders
to India, but with the instructions to touch
1t Malta, where they were to receive further
instruction as to their destination.

Capt Americus Symmes, the advocate of
the theory that navigsble cavity extends
through the earth from pole to pole, has
contributed $500 toward the Howgate Artic
expedition. Symmes SAYS that all the results
of the previous expeditions justify his belief,
and he is confident that Howgats will be able
to enter the cavity. In letter TO the
Louisville Courier-Journal he says Did not
Capt. Waddle go upon a South exploring
expedition a few years ago, and found an
open Polar sea, as in the North, and when
entering it found his compass had reversed
its position, and was pointing North when he
thought he was going Southwark, and became
alarmed and turned back, when, if he had
followed on, as his compass directed, he
would have come out at the North pole, and
would have proved the theory true, which
says the earth is hollow, and, no doubt,
habitable within

A new patent law for the German Empire
has just come into operation. Hitherto about
twenty-five different patents were necessary
to include the whole Empire, and as regards
the kingdom Of Prussia the difficulties in the
way of obtaining patent were almost insur
mounrable. Under the new law patents will
be granted for any new invention which has
not been described in publications or publicly
worked in Germany. No patents, however,
will be issued for articles Of nourishment or
medicine, Fifteen years is the period allot-
ted for the duration of patent. There is an
annual tax on patents, In case of inventions
not being worked in Germany to an adequate
extent, patents will be cancelled at the end
of three years

The Austin Reveille and the Reno Gazette
have gotten into squabble. We are not in
formed in regard to the cause of the trouble
and do not care to be, as we have no desire to
take sides. So it is only on general princi-
pies and desire for an item that we make
some comments ON the following sentence
clipped from the Reveille "Your collegiate
seldom makes q good general newspaper
writer, and when one does enter the journal
istic field, as rule, the only funny thing
about his writings is his constant straining for
scholarly effect" Doubtless a good many
fools 90 to college. More than one plough
has been robbed of good hand to swell the
number But it is simply an assertion with
out proof to say that a collegiate educetion
units man for the journalistic profession
According to our habit of thinking it is quite
as necessary for a journalist to have thorough
education as it is for lawyer one entering
any of the learned professions. We do not
pretend to say that man cannot become
good scholar without going to college But
we do say that the college bred man has
very decided advantage, in many respects,
over the man who has never been at college.
However, this question is too absurd for dis
cussion and We are quite sure that the editor
Of the Reveille has too much sense to defend
what he has so hastily spoken

THE "SEA SERPENT. The Graphic con
tains sketch by Lieutenant W p Haynes,
of Her Majestys ship Osborne, of the sea
monster seen by the officers and crew OF that
vessel off the North coast Of Sicily, on the
Cd of June. In n letter accompanying this
sketch he says: My attention was first
called by seeing a long row fms appearing
above the surface of the water at distance
of about two hundred yards from our ship
and away to our beam They were Of
irregular nights and extending about thirty
feet or forty feet in line (the former number
is the length l gave, the latter the other off
cers); in a few seconds they disappeared,
giving place to the fore part of the monster.
By this time it had passed astern, swimming
in the opposite direction to that we were
stearing, and as we were passing through the
water at ten and half knots, could only
get view Of it END on which have shown
in the sketch. The head was bullet shaped
and quite six feet thick, the neck narrow,
and its head was occasionally thrown back
out of the water, remaining there for few
seconds at a time. 1t was very broad across
the back or shoulders, about fifteen or twenty
feet and the tippers seemed to have a semi
revolving motion, which seemed to paddle |
the monster along. They were about fifteen |
feet in length From the top of the head to |
the part of the back where it became i'm |
mersed should consider about fifty feet, and |
that seemed about third OF the whole length. |
All this part was smooth, resembling seal.

WHAT A SQUIRREL WILL DO.

Patrick Sexton, farmer, who leases one OF
| Captain Moss farms, ono ana half miles east
OF Atlanta, IN this county, yesterday brought
to this Office package OF wheat which he had
taken from the pouch Of 4 squirrel killed by
his dogs. The quantity was astonishing
There were 1888 grains weighing three-quarters
Of an ounce. The grains were not al plump
and full sized as III that proportion II would
require l ,05l of them 20 make an ounce,
whereas an ounce Of average plump wheat
contains only from 923 to go grams We
could scarcely have believed that 4 squirrel
had the capacity for carrying off SO much
grain, but Mr.. Sexton states that there were
two witnesses to the removal Of the grain from
the cheeks of the dead squirrel, who with
himself will make affidavit to the facts At
this rate it would not take long for all indus
trious family of squirrels to eat up grain
crop. Estimating squirrel will fill his pouch
take it to his hole and empty It every i've
minutes, taking three -fourths OF an ounce at
each load, he would get away with eight
pounds IN day OF twelve hours, and colony
of 100 of them would, inside Of three weeks,
steal nearly six tons, worth at present prices,
SZ7O. As there IS scarcely farm in the
county that has not at least from ono to five
hundred squirrels, it can be readily seen how
much destruction these pests are capable of
doing. In this county alone the squirrels
must be enumerated by the million, each one
capable of doing at least one dollars worth Of
damage in a season. The necessity for uni
ted, relentless and systematic warfare upon
these destructive little animals is apparent,
and should demand the serious attention OF
the farmers But unless all farmers poison
their squirrels it is almost useless for one to
do it. They breed as rapidly as fieas, and an
pair will soon populate a whole
county. Stockton independently July 3Ist
