How The Arabs Fought.

Every additional detail received
concerning last Thursdays battle at
Tamai Well, goes to show that it
was from beginning to end hand
to hand fight, Soudanese fought
until they were absolutely killed or
ierally pushed from the field and
the British troups dubbed, sabred
and bayonetted them until com
pletely exhausted. Col, Burleigh,
the correspondent of the News, in
his last dispatches, records many acts
of personal valoor. The rebel attack
consisted of a succession Of mad
rushes, having none Of the weight
and momentum Of q charge in regu-
i, lar formation, but characterized by
wild impetuosity, accompanied by
an absolute indifference to death.
The Highlanders Of the Black
Watch Regiment, which had to
meet the first of these, distinguished
themselves. The largest man in
the regiment, a gigantic Scotchman
named Jamie Adams, stood firm and
maintained for long time his
ground alone. When the Second
Brigade square was broken the col
Iision between the armies had thrown
the men from the east side a con-
siderable distance beyond each other
and so great was the crush that
there was hardly room for any man
to WELD a weapon.
When the square broke Jamie
Adams found himself surrounded by
horde of Infatuated Arabs, and it
was kill or be killed. Neither he
nor his assailants had time or oppor-
tunity to load their empty wagons,
and realizing the futility Of attemp-
ing to meet their bayonets with his,
he dubbed his gun and after tramp
ing down two Arabs for the purpose
Of securing standing room," began
the fight for his life. His tremend-
Gus strength and enormous reach
enabled him to keep his adversaries
from reaching his person, but he had
to brain and kill fourteen men before
he could make an opening for him
self and get back to the British
forces, which by this time, had re
formed and regained the ground.
Geo. Drummond, another soldier
of the Black Watch won a victory
by killing in single combat a nephew
of Osman Digna, the Sheik Mahomed.
This combat between the two was
hand to hand and was even until
Drummond thrust sword bayonct,
so far through the Arabs body that
the muzzIe Of the Scotchman's rifle
penetrated Nahomed's ribs. Twen-
ty members Of the Black Watch
who had became isolated by the
temporary disarrangement OF these
squares made desperate charge up
on force Of Sheik Mullab another Of
Osman's Digna's Iieutenants, and
having no time to reload their pieces
fought hand to hand until obey
were exterminated, after inhicting
great slaughter upon the enemy.

Saturday Review.
A matter of continual surprise to Al
Englishman who has the luck to gair
admittance to French salon is the truly
catholic range of the matters that vii
come under discussion. There is ne
subject that a Frenchman will not dis
cuss seriously, and think it is to his pro
fit to do so, with a Frenchwoman. Il
might also be said that there is no ser
ions subject that in London man will
discuss thoroughly with lady, for, as a
rule, he does not hold that he will in
crease his stock of ideas by giving him.
self the trouble. In Paris, men whether
from vanity or from other reasons, talk
their best when ladies are their auditors,
and they assuredIy seek the society OF
women far more from sympathy with
their minds than from admiration OF
their outward attractions. Esprit which
is not wit, but which has been defined as
that 'squick perception which seizes the
ideas Of others easily and returns ready
change for them" is, in trnth, what men
most prize in women, it being quality
Independent of beauty, and while the
mind lasts, not lessened by age.
1t has been frequently remarked how
in their old age French men and women
preserve not only their good-humor, but
their gayety, to the last. This is, of
course, in part dependent on good health
for with them govt and dyspepsia are
not common maiadies But for the
cheerfulness of his declining years q
Frenchman will look to the salons Of his
friends, and, since it has ever been the
tom for intimate society in France to
assemble in the evening, he, after dinner
not being club man, will take his hat
and cane t, go ont and pay his visits.
In some dimly lighted ialon Gu D senae
he will find 4 welcome from the circle
gathered round the fireside, where all
are habitnes and where each, eschewing
the weather and the discussion of his
personal health, brings forth his remarks
on passing events, and contributes some
new observation to the common stock.
