America Ahead Peculiar Characteristics
of Americans The Evils and How He
stored.
In this age of hustle and hurry, an age
devoted to great projects and enterprises
the American people are taking the lead in
the furtherance of noble works. and in the
advancement Of the sciences and arts, In
these they deserve to take a high rank, and
through the united works OF millions, the
American continent is fast being trans
formed from its untamed state and being
placed on an equality with the older con-
tinents beyond the ocean. The Amer
lean people are fast, under these influences,
developing into nervous, energetic race,
remarkable for its vim and business qualif-
cations; vet there is danger that in the
course of years these very elements may
combine to the ruination Of the physical
character of the people and leave them
feeble and altogether different from their
forefathers. General debility is now much
more common than formerly and seems to
be on the increase among the masses.
MANY remedies have been extensively adj
yertised for this widespread complaint but
none of these have been so successful or
met with such general favor as the remedy
manufactured by DR.. s. b. Hartman and
named by him PERUYA.
Mr.. S. S. Cloudy, Of Massitlon, Stark
county Ohio, writes: That he has been
troubled with general debility and dyspep-
STA for several years; that he was induced
to try PERuYA for his complaints and that
after using three bottles OF the medicine he
was greatly relieved. II braced him up
and gave him energy, and restored him to
his youthful vigor. He ascribes his cure to
PERUyA, and says it is wonderful remedy
Adolph Bakhaus & Co., Springfield, o.

took occasion. some few weeks ago to
speak of the favor in which calico was held
this season in the East, and / am moved to
again take up the theme BY the perusal OF
q telegram from one of the great calico
manufacturing centres Of Massachusetts,.
The writer says the fever has broken out IN
the most virulent form, and that nearly
every lady is busily engaged in thinking up
some new pattern for her calico dress, while
Others are making selections, and merchants
are putting in new goods in large quaint
ties. Very many young ladies are already
appearing in neat calico suits, which look
very attractive. 1t seems that the people
have Just begun to realize thai
calico makes prettier summer suits
than any other material, but the
predominstiDg reason given BY most of the
influential ladies who have been asked
about it is that 1T will help the poor factory
operatives who have so long been out OF
work" and besides they say, IF every
lady will purchase enough calico for even q

make such a demand for the goods as to
cause every print factory in the country to
run on full time for one year." One lady
suggested that as they are engaged in
charitable work, as well as fashionable
one, the men ought to wear calico coats
and vests during the summer" and several
young men at once acted upon the sugges'
lion and forthwith bought material for vests
and left their measures at the tailors. For
the present each individual lady seems to
be selecting material for use more than for
parties, and one wealthy lady has purchased
500 yards of calico to make presents OF fifty
calico dresses to deserving poor. Everybody
you meet says calico and everybody seems
to like the idea. The calico idea seems to be
worthy of being fostered. AS the boys say:

Howard at Gettysburg.

To THE EDITOR: In common with soldiers
everywhere / have read the monograph on the
battle of Gettysburg, and relate the following
incident, believing that in the interest of his
torical truth it may be of Importance: In 1868.
and at the time of the battle of Gettysburg, l
was resident Of the town of Gettysburg. At
that time was about Il years of age, and sub
sequently enlisted in the Signal Corps u. ).
A. Some five or six hours after the battle had
been in progress, myself and a companion,
Daniel Sicily, together with Mrs. Il. q.
FahnestOck, were together, and had assembled
to the upper floor of Fahnestock's observatory.
We were looking anxiously to the north and
west of the town where the battle was raging,
and of which we had from our elevated posi-
ton a good view. This observatory was on the
southwest corner of Baltimore and Middle
streets. While we three were watching the
movements of the troops General with only
one arm (Howard), with his staff and an escort
of cavalry. came dashing down Baltimore street
and halted in front of the observatory. A staff
officer directed the Generals attention to US,
and we were asked how to reach our position.
Young Sicily went at once to the side entrance
on Middle street and admitted Gen. Howard
and staff officer, who seemed TO be Captain
and a German; cannot say who he was. This
officer had a large field glass. Gen. Howard took
the glass and swept the field long and anxiously.
Just at this time an officer came dashipg up
on horseback, and shouted Gen. Reynolds is
killed" Gen. Howard, | recolltct, seemed pro-
foundly agitated, but at once turned, and in
these exact words SAID: captain, go immedi-
ately 10 Gen. Stcinwehr and tell him to stop
his division on Cemetery Hill and put his men
in position for defense" The Captain went
down at once. As Gen. Howard gave this order,
Mrs. Fahnestock said ''0b, sir, you are not
going to let the rebels. come into town. are
you?" To this Gen. Howard said Madam,
no one can tell what may happen in war"
Soon after this shells began passing near and
we all went down. As / came down | inquired
of wounded officer who that General was,
and he replied that it was Howard, this being
the FIRST time | had ever seen him. As to the
exact time when Reynolds death was
nounced, | can only give my best judgment:
| think ii was between II and o'clock. The
General speaks of being in the observatory,
and / am confident he will recall these facts.
OF course | know nothing of what orders he
may have had, but as he had no general COM
mand until Reynolds death, it is impossible
that he could have been directed to fortify
Cemetery Hill, and i do know that informa
ton of Reynolds's death came to him at the
observatory, and that he gave the orders in the
above language. The other parties who were
with Inc this eventfu 1st of July, 1863, are still
living and will verify these details. That
Gen. Howard is entitled 10 the credit of select
ing the battlefield of Gettysburg. | am quite

HOW TO GET IN,
And How to Get Gut-Natters which will Repay
Consideration.

And How to Get Out-Maters which will Repay
Consideration.
There is going to be an enormous gathering
of people at Washington next month, and
while every provision is being made advance
to avoid confusion and insure the omfort of
all, still 1.-THE gods help those who clip them
selves" To look out for number on is but the
natural course a sensible man WI Id follow.
The railroad situation in Washing IN is easily
to be understood. There are buf two depots
in the city. Into one will come an aggregation
of travel from the South, the North, the East
and the West-train after train, thousands
upon thousands of people, until packed like
sardnes in box" would be but feeble way to
put it. Into the other depot will only come the
trains of the Baltimore & Ohio that Com
pany owning and using it exclusively for is
own misunderstanding in the hands of its
officials, and details so arranged that there can
be no mixing up nor getting on or off trains at
wrong times and wrong places Indeed it
would not take much thought on the part of
those who have had any experience whatever
as to crowds to appreciate the advantage the h.
& .. possesses III Washington. Then, too,
there are the facilities the lines have in regard
to track room and unrestricted means of get
ting trains directly into depots. For instance,
the H. & o. is the only road into Washington
whicc can and docs separate its passenger bust
ness so that trains from the West come into
Washington on the tracks of one division and
the trains from the East and North upon the
tracks of apOther division.
The great Importance of these facilities may
be appreciated from the fact that all the trains
that enter the National Capital upon other
lines than the B. & o., come together in single
depot, and the packing and jamming will be
something terrific TO behold, let alone getting
in and about them. The great number of trains
from the Southern lines alone would completely
fill depot double the capacity of the one in
question, and when to them are added those
from other sections, the chances are that good
many passengers will have to walk into town
spend the day or night aboard in vain re-
grcts That tickets were not bought by the Il.
40.
Another item of no ordinary interest to
Western people is that by any other line to
Washington than the Baltimore & Ohio all
trains from the West have to come together
with trains from the East and North. and all
use one Soulful bound track for forty-odd miles
That is to say, that no other line but the j. &
o. has two different divisions into Washington,
one for its trains from the West and the other
for its trains from the North and East All
this may prove more or less confusing or per-
picking to those who contemplate attending
the Inauguration, and the best way to settle
all donbt is 10 decide to go by the B. & o. and
thus avoid all danger OF going wrong,
