DEAD Horses Standing Erect.


The Dansville Adeertiser of the eth inst.
says: We reported recently tho killing
by lightning of Lyman Smith horses, and
the stunning of himself. Mr.. Smith was
in town on Saturday with his hired man,
and the two tell singular story about
this lightning stroke. MIR. Smith was on q
grain drill in a field and his hired man was
about twelve rops from him dragging.
Suddenly Smith heard the noise of thun-
der, and became unconscious. The man
also heard the noise, but neither of them
saw any flash of lightning. The man went
to Smith, and, in about twenty minutes, he
was restored to consciousness. Then at
tention was given to the horses. One OF
them was standing erect with one foot
lifted little way from the earth, and the
other was kneeling with his nose in the
earth, and both were stone dead, and re-
tanned their positions until they were push-
ed over, Mr.. Smith finds his health seri-
ously affected by the shock he received,
and it is doubtful If he ever entirely reeOv-
ers from 1T. The supposition is that
the electricity went from the earth to the
sky, instead of from the sky to the earth" !"

THE OLD SILVER DOLLAR,

clever parody suggested by Governor Young's ref.
ercnce to the dollar of our daddies."
low dear to my heart are the coins of my childhood
When fond recollection recalls them to view;
Dads scanty gifts in an occasional mild mood:
The hardly-Gained "pelf" which my infancy knew
The odfashioned copper, which green rust corroded
The smoothsided levy" and six.pences small:
The pastered "quarters by lcng use eroded,
The old silver dollar, loysd better than ALL
The old silver dollar our dads legal dollar,
The bright shining dollar, loved better than ALL
Its broad cleaning disk hailed as treasure,
The promised reward of long hours in the field.
To grasp Its dear form was exquisite pleasure
The strongest and keenest that money could Yield.
How ardent seized 1t, with hands that were itching
And quick to the long pockets bottom it fell.
There carefully guarded from wasteful bewitching,
Till yielding at last to the circusman's spell.
The old silver dollar, our dads legal dollar,
The bright shining dollar, that they loved so we'll
How good from the hucksters grined hand to receive
it,
As pay for our butter, our eggs, and our Sass"
The crispest new bill could not tempt me to leave it,
Though the bank note deteetor pronounced j. first
class.
Since now 1s discarded that loved legal TENDER
The tears of regret will increasingly fall,
As fancy reverts to its size and its splendor,
Iyearn for the dollar loved better than all.
The old silver dollar, our dads legal dollar,
The bright shining dollar loved better than all

AN Aarp JorRsAL1sr.-"Old men

AN AGED JoURNALIsT.-"O men live
live in the past. My past was connected
with the press. My life from 1911 to 1868
was passed as an apprentice, journeyman,
publisher and editor IN printing Offices
These occupations were eminently congeni-
al. Sixty-six years of constant labor were
cheered by aspirations which were gradu-
ally but ultimately realized. Industry and
fidelity we're, under the guidance of of
kind Providence, abundantly rewarded
And now, in the evening of my life, nay
chief enjoyment consists in remem-
brances of the stirring events with
which I have been connected and OF the
army of patriots and devoted friends of
whom cherish agreeable recollections--
recollections saddened only by the ref1ec-
tion that most of them have passed away.

The Butler Spoon Story.

"P. F." writing to the Cincinnati Gem
mercial, says the story originated in the
following manner: When General Butler
thought himself sufficiently secure in New
Orleans, he sent for his wife to join him.
In looking over the city for a dwelling his
eyes rested covetously upon fine residence
on the corner of St. Charles and Julia
streets, owned by q physician who, at that
time, was in the Confederate army, and was
occupied by his family, consisting of his
wife her invalid mother and three or four
small children. There were plenty of va
cant houses in the city, but they were not
SO convenient; besides, when they were va
Gated everything that could be removed had
been carried away. Butler wanted a thor
oughly furnished house. so he ordered the
lady to vaeate, permitting her to take only
the wardrobe of the family. Company Fl,
of the Goth Massachusetts, Regiment, was
Buffers body guard, and from this compa-
ny a squad was detailed to guard the prem
ises until the arrival of Mrs. Butler. One
of the men, lot having the fear of God or
General Butler before his eyes, but, on the
contrary, having before him the examples
of those in authority, concluded to follow
them by appropriating to himself some sill
yer spoons. It was soon discovered, and
the man was court-martialed and sent to
the Tortugas for short term, but on ap-
plication to General Butler was pardoned.
Whether or not the pardon was bought with
the spoons am not wise to say, but it is
quite evident they were not returned to
their rightfnl owner, or they would not be
standing advertisement in the papers Of
Gen. Buffers covetousness.

Died On the Field Of Battle.

Lieut.. Edward r. Theller, who is report
ed to have been killed during the disas-
trous engagement of Col. Perry's command
with the Indians at White Bird Caiion, was
born in Vermont, and was about 45 years
of age. He was an old Californian. In
1851 he raised company of infantry, and
on the 25th of October, 1861, was commits
stoned Captain Of Company |, I'd infantry,
California Volunteers. He served in that
regiment until May 10, 1856, when he was
mustered out OF service, the war being over.
During his service in the California Volun-
teers he was stationed part of the time in
the Humbolt Bay country, and in Arizona.
He was commissioned I'd Lieutenant 9th
U. s. Infantry on the I'd of March, 1857,
and transferred to the 21st Infantry August
80, 1869. He was promoted to the 1st
Lieutenant August 81. 1871. He was en-
gagged in the Modoc war, at the close of
which he came to Fort Walla Walla, and
was Post Quartermaster for year or more.
From Fort Walla Walla he went to Fort
Lapwai couple of years ago to join his
company. Capt. Theller was very genial,
affable and whole souled gentleman, whose
loss will be severely regretted by all who
had the pleasure of his acquaintance. He
left devoted wife, but no children, to
noun his violent death. Having known
Capt. Theller for over IS years. having
served in the same regiment with him, we
know that he was thorough soldiers good
officer, and brave man. The troops nm
der his command always spoke OF him in
terms Of praise, and were very mnch at
tached to him. The lives Of ten Thousand
mnrierous aavages like Joseph would be
but trifiing atonement for the scalp Of

THE CossACKs AND SCIENcE.-An Eng
lsh writer shows how the Cossack may
apply science in the present war, as follows:
" In belt round their waists they carry q
few pounds of gun cotton or dynamite, and
they work incalculable harm. A small
charge of gun cotton, placed simply upon
rail and fired with fuse sufices to blow
several feet ef the iron to a distance Of
many yards, thus rendering the railway
unserviceable on the instant. A trooper
may dismount, place a charge at
the base ssof telegraph pole, fire it, and
be in his saddle again within sixty seconds.
Wires may thus be cut and commnnica-
tions stopped in the heart of An enemy's
country by fearless riders, while lines of
railway are entirely at their mercy. Even
light bridges and we'll built stockades may
be thrown down by ths violent detcnations
of compressed gun cotton, and forest roads
considerably obstructed by trees thrown
across, which are never SO rapidly felled as
when small charge of this explosive is
fired at their roots.
