ST. PAUL, Aug. 3.-The great railroad
strike istgradually dying out, and every
day finds it nearer total extinction. Bu-
siness has been resumed on most of the
roads involved = negotiations between
them and the strikers having generally
resulted in satisfactory adjustment. In
this manner the strike on the Lake Shore
road was settled yesterday, and. business
resumed. All is quiet and a better state
Of feeling is prevailing everywhere except
in the mining districts of Pennsylvania,
where the strike still continues and great
excitement prevails At Plymouth the
railroad is blockaded and the track torn
up, and the w yoming railroad is obsHuct-
ed at Wilkesbarre and other points. Gov.
Hartrantt is there with one thousand
troops, and an effort will be made to-day
to start the trains. The Baltimore &
Ohio road is slightly obstructed at Bel
laire, the freight train leaving there yes:

= The, Russian defeat at Plerna seems to
have been more complete than -at!first
reported, and their position is represent
ed as extremely critical. The Russian
army numbered forty thousand strong,
and was defeated with a loss of sixteen
thousand killed and wounded. The Rus
sian forces have retreated into Bulgaria,
and the result of the battle is. deemed SO
important that all hope of a speedy end
of hostilities and Of foreign Intervention
is looked upon as wholly improbable.

Correspondence.


ED. TR1BUNE.-I notice in your last is
sue an obituary notice of Capt. John Har-
ris, which, while it exhibits a commend
able Christian charity in speaking Of the
departed, and while I find myself in SYM
pathy with its general tone, yet think
its writer subjects the article to criticism
in certain of its features. I have had it
driven home to my heart many tunes,
that altogether too many of these whole
souled, good hearted men were destroy
ing their usefulness in the world, and
(perhaps unthinkingly) exerting their
influence against the best interests OF
society. Oh, no! Permit me to say to
L. w. S., with all respect, that the world
doesn't need any more Of such sad expe-
riences, such horrible shipwrecks Of the
hopes and aspirations Of the human
heart. This country alone has to deal
with nearly hundred thousand such ex.
periences every year, and God forbid
they should increase. I can't see how
the world would be any better for it,
neither can approve the sentment that
his intemperate habits injured no one
but himself. Even the drunkard has his
influence, and it seems that Uncle John,
from his constant association with chill.
dren, was constantly familiarizing them
with the innocence of drunkenness.
There are other reasons why man has
no right to abuse himself. First, it is
fragrant violation Of the law Of his being,
4 violation which brings its own terrible
penalty, as violations of natures laws 81.
ways do; for cause and effect cannot be
separated.
Again, 4 man has no right to unneces-
sarily render himself unable to bear the
burdens Of life, thus throwing his bur
dens upon other people; consequently it
can hardly be excused, mmy opinion, as
wronging no one but the persons them
selves. 1realize the fact that some Of the
brightest minds and kndest hearts ever
in this country have had the brightest
scintillations Of their genius clouded, and
at last overwhelmed in gloom, and the
kindest admonitions of their hearts sup
planted by images from Hades as 2 result
Of an uncontrolled appetite; and I pro-
test against any more. Yea! I protest
against the sentiment that by any posi-
bility the world would be any better tor
any increase Of this class, even if they
we're all as innocent as s'Uncle John"
which they are not by any means.
Rather hasten the time when men, alive
to the privileges Of their manhood, shall
study the principles Of Legitimate human
life, and learn to use and not abuse the
many great blessings with which we are
surrounded. b.
