FACTS.

Those contemplating a trip westward
will certainly do well to carefully con
suit the time tables Of the Baltimore and
Ohio road. It's celebrated fast trains,
its sure connections, and rates always as
low as the lowest, make it beyond all
controversy the best line west. Colo
nists are carried in first class cars on fast
trains, and every possible care is taken
to insure comfort and convenience.
Trains run through without change Of
ears tc Chicago, where direct connection
is made with al leading lines to the
west, northwest and southwest, making
hut single change of cars to Iowa
R,ssss, Nebraska, Texas Minnesota
esc. No other line can offer such advan.
tages as the Baltimore and Ohio.-I {
costs but very little time and trouble
to learn this, and in the end may leaG
to tie saving of much Of both as well al
money. Above all things do not pur
chase tickets before having talk or re-
ceiving letter from one Of the B. l. o
Agents. A letter addressed to W. 4

Selt-Sacrifice.

At the seige of Tortona the Comman-
der OF the Neapolitan army, which lay
before the town, called TO him Cap
tain Carew, an lrishmsn. and ordered
him 10 advance with his company TO a
particular spot, which he pointed out
When he hsd made sure that Carew un.
derstood, he said =: "Captaiu, / know
you are gallant man-at heart a sol.
dier, so | have put upon you this duty
But YOU shall not GO ignorantly. Di-
rectly beneath that spot the enemy have
constructed an enormous mine, which
would have exploded as quickly as pos.
sihle. Your presence, with the detach
ment under your command, will cause
its immediate explosion, and, Of course
you must int vitality all be killed! You
can retrac', il you wish.
Mo, sir" replied the brave Irishman
"lf can save the great mass OF my
comrades, they are welcome To nv life.
And he marched out his comman
and led it Straight to the given point
where, ne felt sure, a terrible death await
ed him. Arrived at the post, lie calleC
10 tine of his officers, who bad a canteer
of wine, and asked him for a drsugb
therefrom. He took the flask, raised i
toward his lips, cry ing aloud as he die
so, Here's blessed memory TO thos,
who hrav, ly fall in battIe!"

Captain John Hatcher, ex-Chief Of

One. Eyed Legislators.

The Department Councils are now
holding their autumn session in France
The proceedings have been unusually
quiet, with the exception of a painful
incident at julie (Correze). NJ.
Vaoher, a Republican Deputy, who at.
tended as a member of the Council,
perceived In the ha / a Bonapartist
journalist who had been constantly pub.
lishing scurrilous articles against him.
He mOtioned to him to join him outside,
but, receiving no response, touched
him with his finger. The journalist
turned sharply round and stuck the
point of his umbrella into M. Vacher's s
eye. 1t Is feared that he will lose the
sight of that eye, and the assailant is
to be prosecuted for willful injury.
Meanwhile M. deCassagnac's paper
writes thus: This incident brings up
to three the number of one-eyed legis-
lators, and their colleagues, though hav-
ing both eyes, may be considered as
totally blind. These three one-eyed
are M Gambetta-let him head the list
M. Tenot and M. Vacher."
