The Telegroph's special from Batoum
says: At 5 o'clock Friday morning the
Russians made furious attack upon
the heights defending Batoum on the
land side occupied by Bashi Bazouks.
The Ottoman troops were entrenched

musketry, which literally moved the
Russians down in swa,hs. They fell
by scores and hundreds on the plain be-
low the Turkish position. In attempts

on the flank of the Russian column and
effected great slaughter, the Muscovites
being upon ground which was perfectly
open having no choice but to fight or
fly. In short time tho spot became
covered with dead and dying Russians,
but the enemy quickly brought up rein.
forcenents aud the battle was renewed
with much determination. For many
hours the efforts of the assailants were
desperately maintained, but towards
midday artillery iire gradually s!ackeued

Erndicatinr Conceit.

Humility has this consolation 1t
finds that the greatest minds have
the least conceit; that Shakespeare
bent down from the imperial height
of his intellect to be taught by a
clown, to be informed by a milk
maid that Socrates in his celebrated
voyage in search of knowledge, with
his perpetual question concerning
the cause of things, found that
knowledge in a workman's shop
which he could not find amongst
the schools of the professors or phi
lOsophers that Newton compared
himself to a child who, playing on
the sea-shore, had picked up a shell
here and a stone there, and knew
no more of them. The bullet OF
steel is worn smooth and polished
when it has passed through the giz-
zard of an ostrich. The most con-
ceited young prig who ever lived
will find his level when brought to
the rude experince of the world.

retired and was endeaVoring to
tangle myself up in sleep, when a
most indescribable bouquet Ofsounds
stole into my room and entwined it

the affair; bOot.jack followed the
boots, but the noise continued with
more zeal if possible than ever. My
contribution was not the only one (;
from other windows a continuous
fire was kept up; bottles, boots,
shoes, slippers and every available
article that could be reached was
SHE'D into the darkness at the noise.
Occasionally a more terrific yell
would seem to indicate that the OBJ

still the yelling continued with I'M

THE Memphis Appeal of the 18th
says: yesterday was the anniVer-
sary of Gen. Bragg's first engage
ment in his campaign in Ken
tucy in 1862, and the surrender of
the Federal forces under Gen. Will
der, of Federal cavalry fame, at
Craig's Hill, or ATunfOrdsville, Ky.
The men captured numbered 1900,
with thirteen guns and at least 81,
10000 of army supplies. The mag
niticent bridge at this point on the
Louisville and Nashville railroad
across Green river was also deS-
troyed. At this point, also, it was
expected by Gen. Bragg to have his
first pitched battle with Gen. Buell.,
but which was deferred until the Sth
of October, when the hard-fOught
battle of Perryville took place. En-
gagged in the Munfordsville battle
was Forests cavalry and Chalmers
Mississippi brigade, and at the sur
render the latter took possession of
the forts as the post Of honor. There
are many survivors of these two
commands who will remember this
event and call to memory the sharp
and murderous fight, in which
many of their best officers and COM
radcs laid themselves to rest.

Eggs-HOw Increased.

If an increase of eggs be desired
in the poultry yard, before large
sums of money are expended in the
purchase of everlasting layers, we
recommend the system of keeping
no hens after the first, or at the
most, their second year. Early pull
lets give the increase, and the only
wonder is that people persist, as they
do, in keeping up a stock of old
hens, which lay one day and stop
the next. In some parts of Europe
it is the invariable rule to keep the
pullets only one year. Feeding will
do a great deal-a surprising work
indeed-in the production Of eggs,
but not when old hens are concern

remains to be done with them but
to give them a smell Of the kitchen
fire, and the sooner they get that the
better. OF course there are some old
varieties whose life ought to be
spared as long as they can send forth
their representatives JudiciOus
