movements. In few minutes an on-rush-
ing stream Of fugitives was making for
Zsgazig, flying out of all their entrench-
ments. little later Gen. MacPherson's
Indian brigade burst upon the flying foe
from the south, and the rout was complete.
Inc artillery coming up at gallop, unlim-
bered and sent their shot and shell after the
rebels, adding to their confusion. The cav
airy had got right round the enemy's fanks
before the fight began.
my previous estimate Of the numbers Of
rebels captured was under, rather than over,
the mark. The Egyptian losses. and the
number OF guns captured, were also greater
than was first mentioned. 1t Is believed
that the bulk Of the rebel force will be cap
tured, and that death blow has been given
TO Arab. All the work was done by our
troops in the first line of attack. The prin-
cipal Notifications had been carried by the
time the Guards and Fourth brigade came

that the departure Of Turkish troops for

arrival of the British commissioner, Sir
Charles Wilson, now Consul General for
Anatolias who must proceed to Constanti-
nople to arrange the details OF the expedi-
tion, and then 90 to the headquarters Of
the Turkish force. Thus everything will be
over before the Turks can possibly arrive in

An editorial in that stanch protection
journal the Boston Advertiser (Rep.) is
attracting attention. 1t speaks in this
tone:
'"The business men of the country are
in position where the extension of their
operations beyond the limits of this
nation is matter of necessity. a
beginning has been made in Mexico.
Further openings appear almost every
where. The capital of the country seeks
investments, and when home opportu-
mites sare supplied foreign investments
will be in demand. The West is no longer
borrower in our Atlantic markets, and
the South is growing toward economic
independence. In fact, economically,
the South bids fair TO take the place held
by the West during the last TWENTY-FIVE
years. This deprives the West of an i'm.
portant buyer, and leaves a great mass of
freight for export purposes. Incident
ally it gives further strength to the roads
leading eastward from the Missouri and
Mississippi river points. The South be-
gins to manufacture, the factories of the
West begin to supply the local markets,
and so the factories of the East must
think of finding a market elsewhere.
Whether it is better to reduce internal
revenue or tariff dues has been discussed
by many persons, nearly all Of whom de.
mand that Congress spare their particular
interest and tax some one else for the
public good-just as if the purpose of
national taxes consisted in fostering
private business, while its true object is
to furnish funds for the use of the Gen
eral Government. We cannot afford to
tax one class at the expense of any other.
It is notorious that many interests are
sufficiently asgcsg for independence

Philadelphia Record,

A most singular tale of domestic in
felicity, extending over a period of forty
years, comes from Media, Delaware
county. On the Providence road, a mile
and half from this pretty little town
near the Rose Tree Hotel, lives Mrs.
Isaac Yarnall, whose husband for forty
years prior to his demise, which occurred
2 few years ago, never addressed a word
to his wife. The latter did likewise,
though both lived under the same roof
during all those years. Old Isaac Var
nall first settled where his wife and
family are now located fully half cen.
tury ago. Mrs Yarnall, who is now
ninety four years of age, is spoken of as
being quiet, kind and clever neighbor,
though extraordinarily headstrong. This
characteristic, it is said, was the princi-
pal feature in the composition of her
husband, who otherwise bore the repu-
tation of being fair, square man.
This same stubbOrnneSs was not alone
confined to the parents, for the three
daughters and two sons were
also imbued with it to a re-
markable degree. The only children
living are the daughters, not one of
whom has exchanged word with one
another for years, though they too dwell
together with the mother In the commo.
dious, antiquated farm house near the
Rose Tree Inn. The peculiarities of the
family are known to all the farmers for
miles around. What at first appeared
surprising and inexplicable has become

GOVERNOR SEYMOUR.
A Visit to the Venerable SgaGesman,s
HOme-Francss Herman.

The editor of the Omaha Herald, who
has been making a visit to New York.
writes to his paper from that city: ~
have been spending some days in Oneida
and near the native spots, and, as an in.
cident of his somewhat melancholy ex-
perience, which is common to whoever
gets near the graves of their kindred, l
have had several visits with HOratio
Seymour, his brother, Mr.. John F. Sey-
mour, and also with Francis Herman, the
ex-senator of universal good repute
and strong name. Governor Seymour
insists that he is an old man, and it is
true that he suffers from physical weak
ness in his legs, which disables him seri-
ously in walking. But he retains his
old charming simplicity of manner and
conversation, as well as vigor of mind,
and his full face and form do not betray
any falling away under the weight of
seventy-two winters. He discusses all
current subjects, and as little of politics
as possible. | visited him a few days
ago in his Deerfeld home, and had
rare pleasure in doing so. He led us
into the native forest hard by that sim
pie house where, with his usual CONVEX
sational eloquence, he discoursed of the
trees he loves and studies so much.
Tree culture in Nebraska has been
always of interest to him, and never
more so than now. He made special in
quiry about the catalpa, which seemed to
be new to him, and still urged the value
of the black cherry as timber tree. The
grand specimen that stands in front of
his house, which is five feet in diameter,

stand in the woods within a stone throw
of it, leave little room for argument on
that score. Governor Seymour speaks
of himself as farmer, with much good
humor, and says he does his farming
through mature and neglect" Cover
nor Seymour drives to the city
on pleasant days, and sits in his
Office in Genesee street, when not
visiting his sisters, Mrs. Conkling and
Mrs. Rutger Miller. 1t is a pity that
such man should grow old, but his
own serene philosophy does not see it
in that light. He says it is right. eve
ought to go, said Governor Seymour in
my hearing, day or so ago, ''to make
room for better people" Francis Ker-
nan returned from the United States
Senate to Utica, and to the law, one of
the best honored and contented citizens
of the State of New York. He is as ac-
tive in spirit and as energetic and genial
as he ever was, and is an honor to his
Suite and country. Mr.. Herman is an
old and wise leader of the party in this
State. His clear head, recognized abili-
ties and unspotted name admirably fit
him for it. Mr.. Herman is not afraid of
the tariff iSsue among the working
masses. His simple way of putting the
question to them, in 1880, proved that
he had no cause for fear

SOUTH CAROLINA REPUBLICANS
Fuse with the Greenbackers.

COLUMBIA, 8. c., September 13.-In the
Republican State Convention to-day, the
committee appointed to confer with the
Greenbsck committee, as to the terms upon
which they could unite in the support of
the State ticket, reported that they had held
a conference, and recommended that the
convention indorse the State ticket of
the Greenback party, and stated that the
committee of that party had given assu-
rance that they would secure free ballot
and a fair count. The proposition pro-
voked a long and bitter discussion, and the
following substitute by E. W. NJ. Mackey
was adopted:
ResoI0ed, That the convention of
the Union Republican party Of
South Carolina, while repudiating
the financial principles advocated by the
Greenbsck party, and reaffirming the prin-
ciples of the Union Republican party, do
recommend that at the next general cleo
tion the voters of the State, in the interest
of free ballot and a fair count, cast their
ballots as Republicans for the State ticket
nominated by the Greenback Labor Conven-
tion held on the 9th instant.
A resolution was adopted recommending
the Republicans to support b. s. Cash, the
Independent candidate for Congress in the
Fifth district.
E. W. NJ. Mackey was re elected Chair
man of the State Executive Committee.

try folk of that section. Isaac Yarnall
was an industrious and thrifty tiller of
tne SOIL He plodded along diligently
and saved his hard earned dollars until
ne amassed sufficient to purchase hun
dred acre farm. This he worked until
his death, and by judicious investments
managed to leave behind him the snug
sum of $25, 900, on which the family are
now living.
The trouble between himself and wife
was brought about in this way: Mrs.
YarnaH was bequeathed small sum of
money by relative, which her husband
desired to use IN purchasing farming
implements and otherwise improving
the property. His better half SAID no,
Isaac vowed that unless he was given
the money he would never speak another
word to her. True to his vow he
steadfastly refrained from speaking for
forty long years. The daughters, who
were nothing more than mere children
when this falling out occurred, tried to
get-the father and mother to make up.

CHICAGO, September 13-The Chicago
Base Ball Club had q harder, closer and
more doubtful game with the Providence
cub to day than yesterday. The Chicagos
won finally by wild overthrow Of George
Wright on an attempt to make double play.
The crowd, which was about the same as
that of Yesterday Give thousand), was good
natured, but when the ball went into 1t, as 1t
did twice, complaint was made that It was
difficult to get 1t out, II the Chicagos could
benefit by It. The umpiring was rather un-
satisfactory, but neither side profted un-
duly by 1t. The Chicsgos made ten base
hits and thirteen totals. The Providence
club made eleven hits and twelve totals.
The Chicsgos hits were pretty well punched.
The Providence men made ten errors and
the Chicsgos only five, including two passed
balls.
