A brave army of patriotic citizens, led

all the people OF Philadelphia to that
Incompatible soldier. I recall it at
once as personal pledge and promise,
aud the solemn covenant of a great
community TO a .eat soldier: Mean
while the army of the Potomac, sud-
denly placed under the command of
Gen. Meade, whom we are proud to
claim as fellow citizen, hastened
noI Inward and fell upon the rash and
audacinus enemy. We know the re.
suit. Neither our children nor our
children's children, to the remotest
gene. a,ion, shall ever forget it or fail
to remember it with a thrill of graft
tude and honest pride. The rebels
were assailed with uneXampled fury,
and the gallant Gen. Reynolds, a Penn
sylvania soldier, laid down his life.
The struggle ragged for several days, the
losses on both sides were fearful, and
still the result seemed doubtful. If
we should fail, Washington, Baltimore
Philadelphia, perhaps New York,
would be doomed. In this crisis of the

came to the II scue. 1t was General
Hancock, Pennsylvanian, who SO
nobly bore the brunt of the battle on

A BESXISE BURNING.

The careless Use of benzine has been
sadly illustrated in the case of Miss
Emma Beacker, aged sixteen, living with
Is Kohler on Front street. On last
Monday, she desired to clean q pair OF
white kid gloves, to wear To the mas.
querade party. She procured q quaint.
ty of benzine and pouring it in wash
dish, set it on the stove hearth, the
stove being very hot. The benEine soon
exploded, and as she had the gloves ON,
washing them in the fluid, her hands
and arms were instantly enveloped in
the flames. She rushed ont and put
her hands in the snow, but she was so
badly burned in both hands and arms to
the elbow, that there Is but little hope
Of saving them, rs the doctor fears they
will mortify. This is a fearful lesson
in the careless use of dangerous fluid.

Recent attention has been dircctcd 3,
the case Of Evan 7. Evans, which was M
extraordinary Que. He recently became
religious enthusiast, and belonged u
what Is called the Calvin Methodist per
suasiou. He was devoted to his church
aud was regarded as religious man
and attended strictly TO his religious
duties. Some three weeks before he wa,
taken Ia the asylum, he began to mani
fest marked symptoms of insanity. lie
grew worse, and on the day before he
was brought 10 Mankato for examination
he act his family in n row of chairs, and
proceeded to make an examination OF
each one, by sounding and humping
them on the breast OF each. He said he
must have q sacrifice of blood, and one
that was perfectly sound and hcalthful.
The oldest child, boy Of about six
years Of age, he said, possessed the neces.
sary qualities of perfect soundncss. Just
at this moment, his brother-in-law, a
Mr.. Jones, CHANGED to come to the win
dow, and saw his actions. Evans i'm
mediately ordered Jones to come in and
take his seat in the row, which he did.
Evans then announced his purpose, lik,
Abraham, 10 offer human sacrifice.
Jones thought II best TO humor him, anu
told him that il was good thing, but
very closely watched his movements
Jones watched u favorable moment In
which 10 persuade Evens Off to u neigh.
boris by the name of Roberts, to get n
butchcr-knife with which TO make the
sacrifice. Evans started out for the knit.
at Roberts, and in the meantime, Jones
started the wife and two small children
of through the woods, to her mothers, re
tanning the threatened boy with him
II SCENE Evans turned back to his hous,
and caught Jones taking his Sacrifice
rs he termed his boy, away. They had
some sharp WORDS, the result of which
was that Jones agreed Ia hide the boy in
the bushes and then to saddle n hors,
with which Evans was 10 90 after the
butcher knife This was done; and
after Evans Was gone, Jones got the boy
away in place OF safety. Evans went
after the knife. but did not get il, be-
cause il Was ia use. lie however got
the promise Of the knife that evening,
the party owning il heing Ignorant OF his
purpose. Meantime Mr.. Jones gave the
and his friends came and
pursuaded him TO 20 down to Mankato
and see the physicians, and attend the
gospel meetings, which he finally con-
,ented to do. He had filed the seedcr |
with corn. with which 10 have II fire and |
smoke for the sacrifice, Ii he told his |
wife. Previous 10 this, on the same
lay, he caught ard tied up Il fat COW, in

that the local clergy have felt il their
