moved from Maine many years ago to Utah
Territory. They passed through Salt Lake the
other day on their way to their old home. and
the old lady made no secret of the cause of
their return. To the reporter for GENTLE
newspaper she said: ''My husband and Ihave
lived together these forty-three years, and
though We joined the Mormons twenty years
ago, nothing was ever said about polygamy un-
til this spring. Then some sneaking priests

Blarneyed an Old Lawyer.

power of persuasion-the faculty to 'stalk
by good words, often containing more fattery
than truth An apt illustration of it is re-

I was sitting in my Office one day, when in
stepped an Irishman whom will call John
Wood, of Union County, and told me he
had been recommended to me for sound coun-
sci in an important case. He had arrived di-
rectly from Cork, Ireland, only few years be-
fore, bringing with him his wife and several
children as far as Hamilton County, Ohio,
where by pure accident he and his could

not lived together since, and his business with
me was TO employ me to file bill for divorce

published in the paper for the next term The
old woman accidentally saw the advertisement
and thereby found out for the first time where
the man had stepped after he had left her, and
came directly over to the old mans residence
The whole matter was soon reconciled between
them.
Soon after this settlement. the old man called
at my Office in fine humor.

The Battle of Austerlitz.

In the memoirs of Marshal Bugeaud,
just published, appears letter from
him, when still a private, to his sister,
describing the brief Austerlitz campaign,
in which he says: "Three days before
the battle we had orders to leave the
town. and encamped a league from the
enemy. The Emperor came there him.
self and slept in his carriage in the mid
die of our camp. For the three days
that passed before the battle he was al
ways walking through all the camps
and talking to the soldiers or their
leaders. We gathered round him. I
heard much of his talk; it was very
simple and always turned upon military
duty. At last on the eve of the battle,
the anniversary of his coronation, he is
sued proclamation, exhorting US to
behave with our usual intrepidity
and promised to keep his
distance as long as victory
followed us. But" said he, eff by mis-
chance you hesitate a moment, you
order" Then he promised to give us
peace after this battle, assuring us that
we should go into environments. We
replied by shouts of JOY, the harbingers
of glad success. Torches were lighted
and the bands played while the whole
army sang songs with eagerness. It
seemed that every man was celebrating
his return home, and felt the Joy one
experiences at seeing father, mother
and brother. Yet how many of these
happy men were not to see their country
again. At daybreak the drums and
trumpets announced the fight; start
was made with shouts of 'Vive
PEmpereur.' The charge is sound
ing. These words are re-
peated again louder, and carry terror
into the enemy's ranks. We charged
like lightning, and the carnage was hor-
rible. The balls whistled. The air
groaned with the noise of cannon and
our threatening voices, closely followed
by death. Very soon the enemy's
phalanx was shaken and threw into
disorder; at last we overthrow them en-
tirely. One point wlthstands us, the
