"Our army under General Bragg was
lying in the trenches outside Of Ohatta-
nooga Watching the Yankees, and there
had been considerable skirmishing GO
ing on all day, but towards nightfall
even the picket firing seemed to cease
with common consent. The evening
was lovely. and during the comparative
stiffness one of the federal bands took
position on little knoll just inside Of
their lines within hearing distance Of
both armies, and began to play old tunes
familiar to all. The bows dropped
everything to listen; as the sweet tones.
mellowed by distance, came throbbine
down the lines men ceased TO talk, or
only spoke In subdued voices for the mu-
sic seemed almost divine. By and by
the notes OF Hail Columbia rung out
and cheer upon cheer wsnt up from the
Union soldiers, which were echoed back
by the confederates, when the band
played 'Dixie's Land Then came the
Star Spangled Banner, and we could
hear the loud voices of the Yankees as
they came in on the chorus. Bonnie
Blue Flag next awakened our enthusi-
asm, and We sang it all with religious
fervor. A short interval followed, and
then the air Of Home, Sweet Home
touched us with an effect which I never
experienced before or since. The mon
drank in that music as if it came from
heaven, and every now and then Is it
struck some tender memory you would
see some one bury his face in his hands or
turn away to hide his agitation, and we
listened for full five minutes, it seams
to me, after the music ceased. Then
from the ranks of Federals and Confed-
crates alikea mighty volume Of shouts
went up, answered and answered back
until the echoes Of Lookout Mountain
re- echoed from the great sounding
board Of Mission Ridge. have heard
the Marseillaise Hymn sung by the
thousand voices, but I never expect to
hear such music on earth again a !

Women ought to be satisfied with the
record recently made by their sex in
Georgia. A few weeks ago the Legis-
lature in that State authorized the EN-,
ploymemt of women in clerical work.
After q fair trial of the system, ex-

fifty per cent. better than when it was
done by men. and Governor Mcdaniel

During the 800 years between A. d.
"A and 313 the Roman Empire had
fifty-seven rulers. OF these twenty
three were assassinated, one was pois-
oned by his wife, three were killed by
their own soldiers, five killed them
selves, one was strangled by his mis-
tress, one was captured by the enemy
and fayed alive, several were killed in
battle, one was drowned, one died Of
plague, and two or three were formally
executed. Altogether the rule,s Of the
empire would not have made promis-

Cocaine chloride, the new anaesthetic,
which produces Inconsistencies only
in the locality of the body to which it
is applied, Is coming into active use.
The swelling on General Grants tongue,
which 1t is feared may be cancerous,
has been greatly reduced by the use of
this new remedy. A physician of vi
emma, DR.. Fleischl, declares that it will
cure rapidly and painlessly the effects
Of bad habits in the excessive use of
morphine and alcohol. The 'spatient"
is deprived Of the drug or the liquor,
and the terrible nervous prostration
which has always followed the aban-
donment Of these stimulants is pre-
vented by hypodermic injections of CO.
caine chloride. A cure Is effected in
ten days. The drug, however is very
expensive.

From recent cable dispatches the limit
of taxation has been reached in Russia.
The ordinary and extraordinary expen-
diture for 1883 reached the sum Of $780,
600, 900, which is an enormous sum
when the wealth of the population is
taken into consideration. This sum is
mainly laid out for military purposes.
The peasants are unable to pay the
personal and land taxes, the customs
duties are Welding less, though most
of the duties have been increased, and
general discomfort reigns throughout
the empire. The national debt at the
close of the year aggregates s., 172, $780,
600 and what is worse, it is increasing
rather than decreasing.

GOVERNMENT OR ADMINISTRATION

1t has been SAID at the world is GOV
erned more by fictions than By facts. The
long judicial robes of the justices of the
supreme court of the United States are
tritles in themselves, but no observing
person can deny that these graceful silk
gowns add to the dignity, the seeming
Importance and TO the general respect en-
tertained for that high Tribunal. The
uniform of the policeman or the soldier
does not in itself make him q better Off
Ger or better fighter, but we find no one
urging that the former should keep the
peace in his shirt sleeves or the latter be
stripped of his uniform.
And so upon the names We give our
civil authorities largely depends the ie-
spect that the mass of the people enter.
tain for them. The proper designation
for the executive head of the nation is
not Mr.. Grant, Mr. Garfield, or Mr..
Cleveland, but the president of the United
States. The chief of state in order to
enlarge respect for this great Office
should be spoken Of as President Cleve-
land, for being at all times invested with
all the powers and prerogatives of the
chief magistrate of the republic, he can
not be or become plain Mr. Cleveland
while in Office. SO also those high exec
utive officers who collectively WELD the
power of the nation should always be re-
ferred to as the government, not the I'D
ministration, because they are the gov
eminent for the time being of the United
States, and are entitled to respect and
obedience as such. The term administra
ton seems to imply something less thar
the supreme civil power possessing full
and controlling authority, and something
that is temporary rather than enduring il
its nature. The government, like thu
king, never dies. As those in supreme
authority OF Washington do in fact con-
stitute the government of the country,
let us call them hereafter by their RICH
name.
