Fought for Ills Whisky.

"In '62," remarked Northern Indi- ana man, with G. A. R. badge on, at one of the hotels yesterday afternoon, tour regiment were attacked by whole brigade in a battle in Mississippi. We were unable to withstand such great odds, and were compelled to fall back about 40 or 50 yards, losing, to the mor- tifcation of the officers and men, our regimental flag. Suddenly tall Irish man, who was private in cavalry company, rushed from the ranks across the vacant ground lying between our men and the enemy's line, furiously at tackled squad of men who had posses sion of the flag, and felling several to the ground with h1s musket. snatched the flag and returned safely to the re9i- ment. The bold fellow was, of course, immediately surrounded by his jubilant comrades and was greatly praised for his bravery. Our Captain appointed him Sergeant on the spot, but the hero cut short the praises of the officer by replying: "Oh, never mind, Cap tain; say no more about it. I dropped my whisky flask among the rebels and thought while I was getting it might as we'll bring the flag along. ."--lndian- apolis Journal.

SVs nneal fa Experieuce.

For a long time we steadily refused to pub fish testimonials, believing that, in the opinion of tho public generally, tho great majority were manufactured to order by unprincipled parties as means of disposing of their worth. less preparations.
 That this view of tho case is to a certain e& tent true, there can be no doubt.
 At last, several years ago, we came to the conclusion that every intelligent person can readily discriminate between spurious and bona tide testimonials, and determined to use ss advertisements few of the many hum dreds of unsolicited certificates in our posses sion.
 In doing this we published them as nearly as possible in the exact language used by our cor respondents, only changing the phraseology, in some cases, so as to compress them into a smaller space than they would otherwise occupy, but without in the least exaggeratins or destroying the meaning Of the writers. We are glad to say that our final conclusior was correct one-that letter recommend ing an article having true merit finds favor The original of every testimonial published by us is on file in our office, an inspection of assertion made above, that only the facts arc given as they appear therein, is true. But as it you'd @ be S very incoavenient if not for that purpose we invite those who doubt df there be such), to correspond with any of the monials. and ask them if we have made any misst tatements, SO far as their knowledge ex- tends, in this article. In other words, if we have not published their letters as nearly yer. bat1m as possib blc.

A Self-Winding Watch.

The Elmira (N. Y.) Adcertiser says:- Occupying Pullman stateroom or Erie train 12 the other evening was man named A. Hirsch, Chicago dealer in jewelry. He was on his way to Europe with his family, and exhibited to passen- gers on the train very curious watch of his own invention, of which he is also the patentee. It is timekeeper which requires no winding. An arrangement something like the nicely balanced lever of pedometer IS so applied to the spring of the watch that the motion of the body in walking winds the time piece. During seven minutes of walking the wearer of watch winds it so that it will run forty-two hours. When wound up the wat oh sets catch automatically, to stop the operation of the winding
 lever. The watch, MT. Hirsch says, has been pronounced success in all particu- lars by the Elgin Watch Company, and he expects to reap big fortune by it.

It will hardly be thought that thers are not on the whole globe fifty cities containing 200, 900 people; but such is the fact, and anyone may convince him self of it by consulting geographical
 dictionary. It would seem at first that there must be at least 200 cities of 200. 900 population, but there is not one fourth of the number. Of these, Great Britain has about g; France, 3; Italy, 4; Germany (proper), 5 CT 6; China, some g.; India, or g, and the United States, according to the latest census, g or 1O
 It is somewhat remarkable that coun- try only 100 years old should have as many If not more) large cities as the oldest lands; but it is not improbable that, before another century, we shall count as large 8 number of cities of 20O,- 900 inhabitants as there are now in the whole world. We are inclined to think that old and famous capitals, like Cordo- va Granada, Cadiz, Florence, Venice, Padua, Verona, Bologna, Warsaw, Cra- COW, Antwerp, Ghent, Rotterdam, Ley den, Leipsic, must be very large, though they really have no more than from TO- 900 to 14o, 900 or 15o, 900 people each. The cities that can lay claim to 100, 900 population and upward are perhaps about 15O, and these include many of those which at first thought we should suppose contained two or three times the number. This planet is very little after all. Its millions are not so near numer- oos as it would seem that they ought to be, and the bulk of these do not come within our idea of civilization, any more than we come within their idea of

THE PRISCILLA,s VICTORY.
Drifting Over the Line at tho End of rhs
 Race.

Three of the contestants for the honor of defending the America's Cup came together for the first time in the regatta of the Atlantic Yacht Club. and the Priscilla defeated the Puritan and the Atlantic. While the race was interesting from the start almost to the finish, when it degenerat.d into drifting match it did not afford fair test of the relative merits of the boats, and the question as to which of them is likely 10 be the Galatea's foe is still in doubt. What wa, shown was that the Priscilla ha, been materially improved by the altera- tons made in her. and that the Atlantic is 8 frst-cass boat in light weather.
 At the lead the Puritan ran away from the others, aud it was believed she would easily win, but the Priscilla soon took the honor from her, the Puritan not leing able to cross tho line on account of the calm. The correc' ed time was as follows: Priscilla, 5.57.03; Atlantic, 6.09 6A

Hundreds of acres were plowed up last fall, because there was no market for hops at any kind of re- munerative prices. have two crops stored and look for better prices this year. One of the reasons for my belief is the apparent fail ure af the Australian hop crop. Last year 5000 bales or more came from that section, but this year there are only about as many hundred"
