Napoleon. Da.hlns charge.

Tie battle Of Lodi was fonght on :he
10th or May, 1896, and resemblea rath
ar u grand storming party than pitch
ed battle. /, was Bonaparte's purpose
to cross the Adda TO Lodi. aud il was
Beauiisu's purpose 70 prevent such "a
crossing; aud, had the opposing eomman-
der destroyed the bridge destined tobe-
come historical. the French advance up
on Milan would, 10 speak moderately,
have been made very difficult matter.
The Austrians did not even defend the
town, though il was very susceptible Of
defense, and the French were covered
from tue Austrian fire by the walls Of
the town and by the town itselG. BsHu
lien defended the place on tie left bank
Of the Adda, where he had many guns
placed, supported by strong body Of
inlantry-only that this supporting
force was drawn mp too far in the rear
Of the batteries 20 prove q support.
Covered by the town, 5000 French
grenadiers wree formed In column,
while the cavalry foried the Adda. As
soon as the cavalry was seen on the
4 ustrian flank. against which it had
been directed 10 operate, the French
column rushed 10 the bridge, and the
Austrians turned all their cannon on it,
pouring into it showers of grape.shot,
in good grape spreading distance and
Austrian infantry in the houses on the
left bank of the river added tremen-
dous fire Of musketry. The bridge
was several hundred feet in length, and
il was not IN human nature to stand
such pitiless storm of pelting shot
without some hesitation, though the
column was composed.of the best sol
diera in the world. But Bonaparte,
Massena, Berthier and other officers
hastened to the head Of their
men, rallied them, and led them on
and the Austrians were routed, losing
their position and their guns, and
5000 men. TIE victory was as COM
plete as it could be made; and the effect
was to establish the ascendancy of the
French. Bonaparte has been much
censured for the daring manner in
which he acted, and 1t has been argued
that he might have accomplished his
purpose without running 50 immense a
risk Perhaps the critics are right, but
tho best answer to their criticism is the
success that crowned the dashing oper
ton. Besides, it was so very brilliant
an affair that it established Bonaparte''
character for heroic courage only few
weeks after he had assumed command
and, of all things, men most admire
daring bravery in war, if it succeed
The Frcnch commander had his charac
ter to make, and he made it at Lodi

TIE scene of the Mountain Meadows
massacre is now the very picture of
desolation. Before the Mormons muir
dered 13l innocent men and women
there in 1857 the Meadows were known
far and wide as paradise in the desert,
with an abundance of grass, crystal
streams and ever flowing springs. To
day the grass is gone, the water courses
dried up, and nothing but "a dreary
waste marks the once beautiful spot
1t is said that the earth is also sinking,
and the bones which were collected
after the massacre, though thrice buried,
continued to reappear, while settlers in
the vicinity shun the spot as haunted,
and say that the winds from the Mead
ows bring piercing cries for help to
their ears.

Letter from Washington.

MR. HARPER After the veto OF the
Army bill by Dir. lIayes-which veto.
by the way, is an odd mixture Of things
relevant and things irrelevant-the
Democrats sat themselves down to pre-
pare programme which would secure the
benefits formerly sought and yet which
would he free from the real objections
made by Mr.. Hayes. They have final.
ly agreed to present as = separate bill
the measure which, as part of she Ar
my appropriation 5;'. was TO prevent
the use of Federal troops at elections.
The bill WI. be presented by Mr.. Laid,
of Maine, to-day.
The progress Of affairs will hereafter
be, in all probability. about as follows
Jhe bill TO be introduced to-day will
he pushed rapidly through the two
Houses. and sent to Mr.. Hayes. The
Senate will, meantime. 90 on with its
discussion OF the Legislative bill. and
send it TO SIr Hayes as soon as lie has
acted ON the other. Beyond this there
is 70 binding agreement as to " hat shall
be done. OF the probabilities an in
telligent correspondent of the Baltimore
S,o, says:
The impression is general tina, the
President will not consent to alIix his
signature 10 any measure doing away
with tic deputy ma77hals at elections.
and in tiis event the resource will be as
already intimated TO make all the apnro.
priations so specific tina, no put lie money
can possibly be used to pay the mar
shals. Leading Republicans, some OF
whom have been congratrloljng them
selves on fancied victory, now concede
that the democrats have it in their pow.
or to obtain all thc material points for
Which they have been contendins.'

The Ouachita telegraph. [volume] (Monroe, La.) 1865-1889, 1879-04-04

We are pleased to notice the occu-
pancy by Mr.. Lewis d. Allen, Jr.,
Of the new and commojious banking
Office recently erected on Grand street.
Mr.. Allen, by close and prompt atten-
ton to business, has been successful in
establishing himself among us; and
we trust, now that he has ample facili-
ties to carry on the business, that our
merchants and people generally will
extend that patronage and support his
exertfons deserve. We have long felt
the need in this city of an enterprise
Of this kind, and know that as business
improves Mr.. Allen will be amply
rewarded. The first floor of the new
building is occupied by Mr.. Allen, and
is fitted up with all modern convent
ences. Our tax collector, Dr.Aby, has
the front Office in hesecond story, and
other rooms will be soon arranged for
private Offices. Monroe ought to be
proud OF the new bank building and
it's occupants, A-1+i ~ - --

Spring Opening.

Mr.. S. Meyer, having received and
opened but a few days before a large
and varied stock OF spring and summer
goods, devoted Monday to grand dis
play. The arrangement was admira-
BILE and the effect beautiful. Shelves
wero full, counters covered, the CELL
ing was draped in all the colors, and
show cases glittered with everything
that goes to complete a bazaar in all of
it's departments. The cornices were
beautifully decorated with chromos, SO
hung as to add much to the occasion.
We sauntered up and down the
counters admiring everything seen or
touched, wondering how such quanti-
ties could ever be slowed away In Or
der to make, room for business, when
ii gentleman remarked that it remind
ed him of the centennial, and another
thought it was the realization of q
fairy story. We know nothing about
either, but were more than willing to
accept any suggestion to help US out OF
the immensely of novelties, notions,
silks, satins, laces, and the thousand
and one other things sparkling before
our eyes, and all of which the ladies
claim to be indispensable to their
toilet in this day and generation.
Mr.. Meyer is merchant of rare
taste, and the employees of the house
without exception, are polite aud at
tentive gentlemen.
