The Annihilation OF Armies.

The confederates, out of $4,000 men
engaged at Gettysburg, lost $4,000, but
Meade held his hand from interfering
with their orderly retreat. OF that
battle the climax was the assault of
Pickett's division, sthe flower of Vir-
ginia," against Webb's front on the
left of Cemetery Hill. Before the heroic
Armitage called for the "cold steel" and
carried Gibbons battery with rush,
| the division had met with a variety of
experiences during its mile-and-a-half
advance over the smooth ground up the
crest. '"When it first came in sight it
had been piled with solid shot; then
half way across it had been vigorously
shelled, and the double canisters had
been reserved for its nearer approach.
An enfilading fire tore through its
ranks; the musketry blazed forth
against it with deadly effect" This is
the evidence of an eyewitness on the
opposite side, who adds, "but it came
on magnifcently." Yes, it came on to
cold steel and dubbed muskets, and,
after desperate struggle, 1t went back
foiled, to the accompaniment which
had marked its advance. But, heavy
as were its losses, it was not "annihi-
lated" Pickett's division survived to
be once and again thorn in the Fed
eral side before the final day of fate
came to it at Appomattox Court House.
At Marsha Tour, Alvepsleben's two
infantry divisions, numbering certainly
not over $4,000 men (for they had al
ready lost heavily at the Spicheren
Berg), sacrificed within few of 1000
during the long summer hours while
they stood unsupported athwart the
course of the French army retreating
from Metz. But, so far were they from
being annihilated, that forty light hours
later they made their presence acutely
felt on the afternoon of Grayelotte. In
the July attack on Plevna, of the $4,000
men with whom Krudener and Scha-
hovskoy went in. they took out under
q, 1000. One brigade of the latter's
command lost 725 killed and 1,200
wounded-about 70 per cent. of its
whole number-yet the Russian retire
ment was not disorderly, and next day
the troops were in resoulute cohesion
awaiting what might befall them. In
the September' attack on Plevna, of
"a, 900 Russo-Roumanian infantry en-.
gagged, the losses reached $4,000. Sko-
belief commanded Is, 900 men, and, at
the end of his two days. desperate
fighting, not 10000 of these were left
standing. But there was no annihila-
ton, either literally or conventionally,
if one may use the term. The surviv-
ors who had fought on the 18th and
18th of September were ready at the
word to 90 in again on the 18th; and
now they marched across the Balkans
alter is one of the marvels of modern
military history.

DEATH ON THE RAIL.
Disastrous Accident on the Camden Road
in Pennsylvania.

By collision between between an ex-
cursion train and an accommodation on the
Camden road, on the 18th, Engineers Pal
mer and Baxter, Conductor Smith, Bag
gagemaster Vaughn, Mail Agent Wylie and
Fireman Harbor were killed and many per-
sons injured. The excursion party were Of
the Camden Presbyterian church. Tb
point where the collision occurred is co
sidered the worst on the road. 1t is heavy
down grade and curves in both directions
In the middle of the curve is wooden
bridge over Cooper's creek. There is only
q single track In the curve. Mall Agent
Wylie called from under the debris, "Here
Iam.' When taken out he was found
shockingly lacerated and death occurred in
very short time.
The accident was caused by the non-re-
oeptiou of telegraphic dispatches. Both
engines were smashed. The following were
injured: Henry Diets, scalded and hip
broke; Leonard Busch, badly scalded;
Frank Mccormick, leg broken and scalded;
John Cssky, slightly injured; VIM. Casky;
injured internally and cannot live; Joseph
Rosenbaum, express agent, badly hurt
about the back and head; AL. Glen, con-
ductor, injured internally; Cora May Lip
pencott and brother Eugene, slightly in
1ured. tit va"
One Of the passengers said that after the
collision all scrambled out of the cars,
some by the windows. Both locomotives
were demolished, and escaping steam made
1t impossible for some time for any one to
approach within fifty feet of the wreck.
Great excitement existed among the people
In the two trains, especially among the
women and children. The acc ommodation
was running twenty-five miles an hour
when 1t entered the curve, and after the
two trains came together the utmost con-
fusion prevailed among the passengers.

POLITICAL.

1t is suspected by democrats at Wash
ington that Representative Dorshiermer, Of
New York, is posing for the democratic
nomination for president and that Dana, Of
the New York Sun, is managing the case for
him. This, it is said, explains the recent
publication of Doshiermer in connection
with Tilden's declination. 1t is now gener-
ally believed that the story of Tilden's hav-
ing written letter declining to permit the
use of his name before the democratic con-
yention is not true.

the inter- oceanic canal project in which
General Grant, Governor Morgan, S. L. M.
Bonlow, Capt. Phelps and others in this
country, together with some people of infu-
ence In Nicaragua, were interested. The
term within which the work was to have
been begun has nearly elapsed, and whether
the secretary proposes to purchase the
rights of the original grantees or to secure
an extension of time, or both, with the
money asked for, cannot yet be learned.

A DYNAMITER NABBED.
Taken In for Having Explosives. lin His
Possession.

Upon the arrival of the Mallory
steamer at Key West, Fla. from New York
on the 18th, Federico Gil Marrero was ar
rested on charge Of having explosives in his
possession upon an affidavit of the United
States district attorney. The information
was probably received from officials of New
York few weeks ago and his mission was
evidently known through detectives. Upon
searching his baggage the officials found a
fuse, decorating cup and books Of instruc-
ton upon the manufacture Of dynamite.
The articles were submitted to expert
officers Of the frigate Galena and the con-
illusions arrived at were that Msrrero had
materials and instructions for making dyna-
mite and such articles as could not be made
here. The vigilance Of the officials doubt
less caused the dynamiters to import separ-
ately the materials and manufacture at Key
West.

diary of young daughter of Gen.
Stone, chief of the khedlval staff (who
himself contributes an introductory
note, in which he sharply criticises the
British for the precipitancy of the
bombardment of Alexandria.) The
family of Gen. Stone were in Cairo
during the bombardment, and were in
constant danger of massacre by the
Arabs, from which the tact and cour-
age of Mrs. Stone alone delivered them,
her husband being on duty at Alexan-
dria.

Suicide of General Buford.

General Abe Buford, of Kentucky,
suiclded at Danvile, Indiana, on the 9th,
at the residence of his nephew, Benjamin
e. Buford. He returned to his room just
after breakfast, on that day, and had been
there but a short time, when the report Of
q revolver was heard, and he was found In
dying condition, having shot himself in
the head. He died without a struggle.
The two statements, one dated that morn
ing, stating that financial misfortune and
death in his family, and the trouble of his
brother, Tom Buford, who killed Judge
Elliott, were the causes for the act.

What else could be called upon to do?
But because did not appear in his dirty
court to try case which the statute says

county, upon an unjust claim, and, if / have
judge who will second me, can drag the
defendant backward and forward across the
whole length of the state, upon motion after

This whole attack is political. 1t would
never have been made If 1 had not been a
candidate for Congress. Your communica-
ton is dated from st. Paul. 1 do not believe
any st. Paul lawyer ever wrote a word of it.
If he did l would be glad to learn the name
of the phenomenal beast, that the bar of
Ramsey county might set mark on him

This attack is the result of a conspiracy
between four parties.
First, firm that were compelled 10 leave
Stevens county by their unpopularity among
their customers, caused by plundering and
bulldozing them, one of the firm acting as
deputy sheriff for that purpose.
Second, judge who is eager to reach out
to strike, anG if possible to crush, political
opponent.
Third, an attorney who never before had a
case against an eminent man, and desires
to advertise the whole world of that fact. He
has, believe, written that communication.
Let him, until denied, have the credit Of it.
His name is Quae. 1 am sorry he should
bear the euphonious title of a beautiful and
innocent bird. If he wrote that communi-
cation, suppressing the truth and distorting
the facts, would suggest to him that he
change his name and adopt the cognomen
of another bird-that dusky and dirty fowl,
of simple digestive apparatus, that fits on
silent wings around the margin of ill-smell-
ing marshes; whose body is never found in
the game bag of the sportsman; whose name
is never spoken in polite society.
The fourth party to the conspiracy is a
newspaper that will interject an affidavit
into an answer where none exists, in order
to charge perjury on the strength of its own
forgery. l am, IGNATIUs DoNNELLY.

Especial Correspondence of the Globe.

SUPERIOR CITY, Sept. ga neat and
substantial public school building has just
been erected at Middle River station on the
Omaha railway line about twenty miles south
Of Superior. There is present enrolment
of twenty-four scholars in the vicinity, who
win be taught by Mrs. Kate Mccormick, of
this city. A year ago there were no settlers
at Middle River except the railway section
boss family. To-day there is a school house,
and many of the excellent quarter sections
in the vicinity are adorned with the thrifty
settlers cabin and several acres of growing
crops. The land near the station is thickiy
timbered with oak, maple, cedar, spruce,
poplar, tamarac, pine and other woods,
which the homesteader can work with profit
during the winter months into cross ties,
! cedarwood, logs, ETC., etc, and then the
land when cleared has an excellent soil for
potatoes, oats, wheat and all the crops OF this
country. There is considerable good land
near this station yet subject to homestead
and presumption.
The Badger band leaves this afternoon to

For appearance and good uniforms they win

northwest.
The Republicans after many trials finally
succeeded last evening in getting up a small
torch light procession. By actual count
there were thirty four men and boys in the
crowd. A few of the leading Republicans
screwed up their courage to join the parade,
but they seemed ashamed of their positions,
and it is doubtful if they will again do the
Chinese toggery.

Messrs. Dandy & Richards, the contract
ors have about 900 men at work on the east

for the st. Louis river bridge between Super
ior and Duluth give great satisfaction here.
The bridge will let the Omaha and Northern
Pacific. into Duluth and give US direct con-
nection with the st. Paul ~ Duluth, the
