brigade, and the worthy chaplain
couldn't have had a worthier sub
ject for his pen, for that Texas brig
ade was among the bravest of the
brave-s02ls peiu ct sans reproche:.
but the reverend gentleman must
have been out of the way when that
fight happened, for his account is
widely different from the reality.
He makes it out that his Texas brig.
ade, valiantly and triumphantly by
itself and unaided, beat back the
Federal troops to the river, and no
hint or mention is made of any
Tennessee regiments being present
at all. Now, no one is SO ready to
testify to the admirable conduct of
Hoods brigade on all occasions as
the men of this Tennessee brigade
which fought shoulder to shoulder
with them on many red hot field
of battle, but facts are facts. When
the Tennesseeans arrived on the field
the Texans were beaten, they were
being driven back by the sheer
weight of numbers on the main
army, and, if the fianking move
ment we have alluded to had not
been promptly repealed by the Ten
nessee troops, they must have either
beat precipitate retreat or been
captured to a man, and the result
must have been very serious to
Johnston's whole army, which
would have been cut in two in its
long line of march and large pOr-
ton of it probably captured or cut
to pieces. For all that, this record
we are now inditing is the first his
torical statement in which it has
been mentioned that single Ten
nesseean was in that battle. Such
is history!
The Tennessee brigade we are
speaking of was first called Ander-
sons brigade, afterwards, for brief
but honorable period, Hatton's and,
after Hatton was slain at Seven
Pines, became much better known
in all the bloodiest contests fought
in Virginia as Areher's brigade in
A. p. Hill's Light Division. 1t
consisted at first of the First, Sew
enth and Fourteenth Tennessee reg
iments; other commands of various
States were subsequently added to it.

JIMMY BLAINE TO THE FRONT
AGAIN.

The occasion was a 4th of July
celebration at ROsedale Park, Wood
stock, Connecticut. James G. Blaine
was there and Daniel H. Chamber
lain, the pseudo-governor whom
South Carolina vomited from her
oppressed and nauseated stomach
last spring. A solid South was still
the bug-bear, the bloody shirt re-
ceived fresh coating Of red ochre
and sectional war was furiously
urged; but it was not quite a united
thing. When Ex-Governor Cham
berlain had done speaking, Mr..
a clergyman of Fair Ha-
ven, Mass, called for three cheers
from those who endorsed Mr.. Hayes
policy which were given with a
will. Three more were given for
Chamberlain. Altogether it does
not by any means seem to be a
good time for the Democratic party
to disband-it has plenty to do yet.

Base Ball.

While we were enjoying ourselves
with the lawyers on the 4th our young
friends of the CHRONICLE club were
beating a club at Guthrie. The
score stood 20 to 10 without playing
the last inning, to which our boys
were entitled, so that it may be said
that the GAINESVILLE boys made five
more runs in eight innings than the
Guthrie boys in nine. Our young
friends think that they met with
scanty courtesy and no hospitality
at all from their antagonists. Never
mind, boys, they knew no better;
invite them to GAINESVILLE and show
them by a good example what they
ought to have done.

THE Russians are meeting with
disaster after disaster at the Eastern
end of the Black Sea. Their left
wing is in a most precarious situa-
ton in the valley of the AraXes,
theircentrei is badlyrouted at levin,
and the large detachment from their
right, which was watching the
Turkish garrison at BatOum, has
suffered a crushing defeat. Two
things are becoming quite manifest:
the Turks there will fight, and the
native population of those regions
have no love for Russia.

What the Bilious Require.

Since torpidity of the liver is the chief
cause of its disorder, it is evident that what
the bilious require is an Alternative stimu-
liant which will arouse it to activity, an eff
feet that is followed by the disappearance of
rangement. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters in
variably achieve the primary result men
toned, besides removing the constipation,
fatulence, heartburn, yellowness of the
skin and whites of the eyes, pain in the
right side and under the right shoulder,
nausea, vertigo and sick headache, to which
bilious invalids are peculiarly subject. AS
a remedy for chronic indigestion, mental
dependency and nervousness the Bitters
are equally eff1cacious, and as a renovant of
lost vigor, u means of arresting premature
decay, and a source of relief from the in
firmities to which the gentler sex is pecu-
liarly subject they may be thoroughly re-
lied upon.

1t will be remembered that two or three
:, years ago al. effort was made in our Legisla-
: ture@to charter Protectory with powers
equivalentt to those possessed by reform schools
under the care of the State. This attempt to
establish private Institution with such pow
ers met with SO great indignation that the
scheme failed, but subsequently, .. modified
bill was passed, apparently harmless in its
character. The Protectory was established
at Denville, Morris county, and has been in
existence some time. Recently a man in Ho-
boken. named Wagner, under pretence of
sending his children to school in Europe,
placed them in this Protectory, and then
eioped with Mrs. Schmidt. ms. Wagner
discovering where her children were, demand
ed them, and this private sectarian institution
refused to. give them up! Has it come TO
this, that in free America a woman's children
can be taken from her control by such OIL
CARNATIONS and the people sit quietly by and
submit to it.? g

last Saturday. Tho thieves arc thought
to be the same who stole Messrs. Leo e.

ports agree that two thieves were killed
and several mole capturnd. One Of the
killed is thought to be the notorious
Chummy Jones. whose name is thing to
shudder at. and is often used by mothers
to brighten their wsyward children into
obedience. We were told that IN officer
had command of the squad Of men who
encountered the thieves, that after two of
the thieves had been captured. and the
others were making desperate resistance.
tho SAID officer WAS wounded twice. Fear

men, he deliberately drew his revolvsrs
and said IN make sure Of You. any
