Houors to the Brave.

On Wednesday sn interesting fight
between two geese was witnessed in a
vacant lot on Summer street, near South
Union. A flock of geese were engaged
in extracting from large mud hole
such delicacies as are relished as food by
that festive bird when stranger goose
made his appearance and began quietly
grubting, evidently deeming the mud
hole common property. For some time
the appearance Of this stranger was not
noticed, but at last one of the geese look
ed up aud beheld the intruder, and
walking up to his companions, seemed to
communicate the intelligence to them.
A short consultation was held, and one
of the number approached the intruder,
and, as the subsequent actions proved,
extended a challenge for a combat. This
challenge was prom ptly accepted and the
two began to fight, all the geese sur
rounding the two and cackling fercely.
For period of about ten minutes the
warfare was waged 6ercely; at the end
OF that time the intruder began to press
his antagonist 80 hard that he took
refuge in fight. The intruder, after
following his opponent short distance,
returned to the spectators and was re-
ceived in silence. He, raised his wings
and strutted round, cackling all the
time. The whole crowd then followed
the vanquished goose, kissing and strik-
ing at him with their mouths and fore
ing him away. The victorious intruder
was taken into full membership, their
former companion being banished. The
process of grubbing in the mud hole was
toen resumed with unw0nted activity

How fair they wero my darlipgs twain
Who walked adown the grassy lauo
That sui1ry August day:
Unconscious OF the gracious charm
That fioated round them. arm.in-arm
They wandered on their way.
One wore her raven tresses low,
Close-braided DER brow of snow,
Like some grand Roman dane:
Hers we're those luminous, large eyes,
From Whose dark depths strange CLEANS arise
And break in sudden flame.
Around her sisters gentler face
The brown hair rippled, tender grace
Was in her form and look:
A wild-r0se color on her cheek,
Brown loving eyes, contented, meek,
And clear as summer brook.

And heard their laughter floating free,
Through idle, happy hours;

The straggling clusters, sweet and gay,
OF honeysuckle flowers.

In eager haste, with playful toll,
And laughter brimmiDg-eyes;
They twined it on my faded brow,
All, Heavenl have that garland now,
A sacred, mournful prize!
Was 1t because they were my own,
fancied even their ightest tone
More sweet than other sound?
Was it because gave them birth,
thought that nowhere in Gods earth
Could fairer things be found2
Was it but dOting mothers love?
Or were my darlings fair above
The playm of their time?

They scarcely reached their prime.
But this know, 'twixt them and ne

That parts their world from this;
And we'll know that where they are,
There is no need of sun or star,
Nor need of mothers kiss.
But DER my honeysuckle wreath,
Ny wearied heart will often breathe
A prayer for those bright bowers
Where may see my daughters stand,
Each holding for me in her hand,
Heavens amaranthine flowers!

Was it g. Victory

The London Spectator thus com ments
on the defeat of the Zulus by Lord
Chelmsford:
We have gained our modest victory
at last, and very thankful we should be
that we have gained it. But it is GER
tainly modest victory. That after a
war of six months, in which we have
suffered many serious checks and one
great disaster, we should at last attain,
with 4 1000 good English troops and 100
natives, decisive victory over a savage
Afghan chief, with probably not more
than twice that number of soldiers, arm
ed chiefly with assegais-(Mr. Forbes
estimates the number of Zulus opposed
to us at 10000, though Lord Chelmsford
holds, not on personal observation, but
on the ground of information he had re.
ceived, to the effect that twelve regiments
of Zulus took part in the conflict; that
there might have been as many as 20, 000)
is not an exploit to be very proud of.
At Plassey Lord Give had but 1000
Englishnen, and but 5000 men alto.
gether; while he had an army OF 40, 900
infantry, with 10 pieces of ordnance and
$4,000 cavalry, opposite to him. Els
was indeed an exploit. It was a great
exploit again, when Edward I'LL, with
but 10000 men, defeated at Cressy a
splendid French army of 100000, and
still more when Henry ", at Agincourt,
defeated another splendid French army,
outnumbering his own by at least four
to one. But this success in Zululand,
though it is, as we Said, one to be very
thankful for, it is not at all one of this
nature. 1t is, rather, one of so modest 8
kind that If we had not been capable OF
it we should have been compelled to
draw very unpleasant differences as tc
the deficiency of either the military
power or the military administration OF
England. That it has taken us siz
months to achieve a decisive success
against such a military power as the
Zulu king is, indeed, a very great honor
to him, though its tardy achievement
cannot be regarded as any evidence Of
growing strength in us.

done that will aid in giving all our visi-
tors as good an impression of Cincinnati
as our city deserves. We need ask moth
ing more. There are more places of in
terest in and about Cincinnati than any
city in the country. Her real business
population is much greater than people
at distance, who have only read the
census reports, have any idea of. Our man
ufacturing interests are more varied than
those of any other city. Our wealthy
men are more liberal than those of other
parts of the country; hence we have more,
in IA public way, to show for the city's
business success. All this and much
more being true, it is always to our ad-
vantage for strangers to come and see for
themselves, and it is to the interest of
every citizen of the city that our visitors
go away with as much information about
Cincinnati as possible.

SPIRIT OF THE GERMAN PAPERS.
TThe Volksblatt.1


The Columbus correspondents of the En-
quirer, Commercial and Volksfreund re-
ported yesterday that the name of Mr. F..
HasSaurek has been mentioned in connec.
tion with the Democratic nomination for
Lieutenant Governor. We can assure our
readers that this has been done entirely
without authority, and that Mr.. Hassaurek
is no candidate for nomination before the
Democratic Convention or the Convention
of any other party, and that he would un-
der no circumstances accept any nonina-
ton if such were rendered him.
THE Volksfreund.l
The Thurman meeting Saturday night at
Robinson's Opera-house was well attended,
in spite of the heat and great enthusiasm
that prevailed. The speakers for Thurman
are no enemies of Bishop, but upright,
active DemoCraticS, who have at heart the
welfare of the party at the next election,
and they are of the opinion that the same
will be secured under the leadership of
Thurman, but that the same is doubtful
under that of the present Governor The
Enquirer takes great pains in Uraducing the
Thurman meeting. This is not to be won.
dered at. The Enquirer never was friend
of Thurman, because the latter could never
stomach the windy financial views of the
Enquirer. 1lhe commercial blows the same
horn not because it hates Thurman, but
because it sees in him the strongest man
whom the Democrats could put up, and
because it fears defeat for the Republi-
cans, with whom of late the Commercial
has been going through thick and thin.
THE Freie Prcsse.]
Honest Bishop is not so green after all.
Who would have credited him with the
strategy he is using in the field right here
m Hamilton County against his opponen is
for the Governorship? Who would have
thought that he could be so cunning and
use the Voksfreund to get the chestnuts
ont of the fire for him? And yet it is so.
The Volksfreund is his, and for this pur-
pose must battle every day against the
nomination of Bishop and for the nomina-
ton of Thurman. The oftener and the
heavier this is done the better for Bishop.

Groves dictionary OF MUSIC
He went nowhere without his sketch
books, and, indeed, these seem to distin-
guish him from other composers as much
as his music does. They are perhaps the
most remarkable relic that any artist or
literary man has left behind him. They
afford the most precious insight into Bee
thoven's method of composition. They
not only show--what we know from his
own admission--that he was in the habit
of working at three, and even four,
things at once, but without them we
should never realize how extremely slow
and tentative he was in composing. Au-
dacious and impassioned beyond every
one in extemporizng, the moment he
takes his pen in hand he becomes the
most cautious and hesitating of men. 1t
would almost seem as if this great genius
never saw his work as a whole until it
actually approached completion; it grew
like a plant or tree, and one thing pro-
duced another. n n There is hardly
bar in his music of which it may not
be said with confidence that it has been
rewritten dozen times.

A steam w Wedding.


Last Wednesday morning the eastward
bound train drew up to the little station
of Richmond, on the Stonington Railroad,
and-a man of some seventy winters and a
maiden of some twenty-five summers
stepped to the platform. Rev. Mr.. -
was in waiting with his carriage to take
the couple to his residence, where the
ceremony was to be performed which
should make them husband and wife.
But instead of the youthful pair enter
ing the carri sc, the bridegro0m-expect-
ant hurriedly inquired when the next
westward. .ho,,u,, train was due. On
5eing told that only five minutes would
elapse before that important event, he
calculated, 81 am in hurry? We must
return by the next train! It's going to
rain! We must be married" They
entered the humble waiting-room of the
depot, there to take upon themselves the
bonds that none but God can put asun-
der. Time sped on. The hands of the
clock moved slowly, but they moved ex-
ceeding sure. Considerable of the linn
tied time was consumed in filling out the
certificate &C., until the station agent
suggested that the time was "only two
minutes now" Just then the westward
bound train rounded the curve, ap.
preaching the station just as if there
never were such things in all the world
as weddings and perplexed youths and
maidens. But the reverend servant Of
Hymen was equal to the occasion and
brought the affair to speedy crisis as
follows:
"Join hands. You take this man te
be your husband?"

"You take this woman to be youl
