As the editor entered a street car the other
day, on his way home, lad OF eight or nine.
catching glimpse of the magazine in the
editors hand, cried out in great astonishment,
Just look. papa. ST. Nicholas has cot a new
covert" The little fellows eyes we're sbarn
and this chance remark showed az once that ne
and 81. kich0las were old friends. The predom-
mating color Of the old cover WAS a bright red:
the new cover resembles that OF the Cestugg in
tint, and is more agreeable to the eye. The
May number IS remarkably rich in entertain
Ing and instructive sketches, stories aRd poems,
and the illustrations are the best that have
adorned Its pages for some time A spirited
little poem BY Joel Stacy. entitled Rocket
and Flyer is first ON the table OF contents,
and affords subject for very pretty fr0ntis-
piece drawn by Mrs. q. SiedleI Among tha
favOrite contributors are J. T. Trowbridge.
Elizabeth stuart Phelps. Frank r. stockton
and Charles q. Leland. Mrs Julia C. r. Dorr ia

Captain Mayne Reids serial The Land of
Fire" reaches a satisfactory conclusion in this
number, and 8Ir. TrOwbridge's new story
" The Scarlet Tanager," opens, a. also a tale Of
adventure by Maurice Thompson. entitled
Marvin and His Boy Hunters" Lonisa NJ.
Alcotts NTH spinning -Wheel story IS also a
great attraction, and the departments are all
admirably conducted. The literary taste dis
played IN the makeup of this magazine is Of
the finest quality.
The May number Of the PbrenoloqicaI Journal
contains a portrait and short biographical
sketch of the popular mOdeler John Rogers,
together with some neat cuts Of several of his
best known groups. Capt. Mary M Miller OF
the steamer Saline" has also q place in the
portrait gallery Of the Journal Some excellent
sketches of travel and useful hints in regard 70
health are among the other attractions Of this
months number
The Missionary Regiew for May contains.
among other excellent reading matter, a bio
graphical sketch Of Gen. Gordon particularly
interesting at the present time by reason Of the
peFil0us position he now occupies at Khar-
toUm. This number has also an interesting
sketch Of Algiers and the Kabyles." and its
usual amount Of yell-compiled religious news.
The B0Ok-Bayer increases in interest. The
May number IS fun of delightful chat. and UNI
der the title Readings from New Books"
eopious extracts are given from the more iul-
portant publications OF the month. A partieu-
larry interesting feature is IT'S News and
Notes concerning authors and publishers
The Hamilton Palace Library, the sale OF which
begins in London to-day. Is the subject Of an
instructive editorial article.

The volume of THE TRIBUNE's CORE
spondence has now attained such proper
tions, and makes such demands upon the
editors time and attention, that we must
insist on the observance by our subscribers
of the general rules heretofore laid down
for their guidance
In the first place, letters intended for
publication should occupy one side of the
paper only Although there is standing
notice at the head of our editorial columns
to that effect, we are daily in receipt OF
communications written on both sides OF
the paper, making it necessary for US to
have them recopied before putting them in
type, which involves, of course, needless
trouble and expense. In the second place
correspondents, if they desire their letters
to receive attention, should take the time
and pains to make their handwriting leei-
ble and should be especially careful about
the writing of proper names. We fire.

Loss of Self Possession in Battle.

To the Editor NATIONAL TRIBUNE:
The Comte de Paris, in his admirable work,
the History of the Civil War in America, y
furnishes the following curious statement,
which illustrates to what extent the excite
ment of conflict causes loss of self possession
even among soldiers long accustomed to hand
ling arms: Among $1,000 loaded muSkets
picked up at random on the battlefield of Get
tysburg, one-foHrth only were properly loaded !;
$4,000 contained each double charge, and the
other fourth from three TO ten charges; in
some there were SIX balls to a single charge of
powder; others contained six cartridges, one
on top of the other, without having been
opened; a few more twenty-three charges reg
ulariy inserted; and, finally, in the barrel of a
single musket there were found, confuSedly
jumbled together, twenty-five balls and sixty
two bucBshOts, with proportionate quantity
of powder" This recalls an incident of the
battlefield of Fort Donelson. On the dreadful
night preceding the surrender of Buckner, a
wounded Union soldier, lying between the
skirmish-lines of the two armies picked up a
rebel mUsket, the peculiar Odor enanating from
which attracting his attention. Up0n inspec-
ton it was found to be loaded with good old
Kentucky bourb-Iuice, the muzzIe being
tightly plugged This proved a Godsend TO
the soldier, who partook freely of the stimuIat-
ing fluid. The whisky probably saved his life,
for the night was bitter cold, and he was with
out the range of friendly aid.

To the Editor NATIONAL TRIBUNE:
Reading in THE TRIBUNE lately letter
from eomr3sde G. S. Smiley. of the 9th Iowa, L
was prompted to ask whether he remembers
the 10th Ohio, which shared with the 9th Iowa
the hardships of the Atlanta eampaign2 The
10th Ohio and 9th Iowa was very much at
tached to each other? When we held our
grand Reunion at Columbus, Ohio, in 1881, two
of the 9th Iowa came many miles from another
State to meet with the 10th Ohio and it was
like the meeting of long-lost brothers. The
10th boys shouldered them up and carried
them through the crowd to the speakers stand.
