Gen. Sheridan and Bismarck.

An orderly was at once despatched for
o surgeon, Bismarck and I doing what
we could meanwhile to alleviate the in
tense suferings of the MANNED men,
bringing them water and administering
little brandy, for the count still had
with him some Of the mornings supply.
When the surgeons came we transferred
the wounded to their care, and making
our way to Rezonville, there took the
counts carriage to rejoin the kings head
quarters, which in the meantime had
been moved to Pont-a-M -Mousson. Our
route led through the village of Gorze,
and here we found the streets so OBJ.
structed with wagons that ] feared 1t
would take US the rest of the day to get
through, for the teamsters would not pay
the slightest heed to the cries of our pos
tilions.
The count was equal to the emergency,
however, for, taking a pistol from be-
hind his cushion and bidding me keep
my seat, he jumped out and quickly be-
gan to clear the street effectively, order
ing wagons to the right and left.
Marching in front Of the carriage and
making way for us till we were well
through the blockade, he then resumed
his seat, remarking: 'sThis is not very
dignifed business for the chancellor Of
the German confederation, but it's the
only way to get through. Gen. Sheri-

Advocating Bayonet Rule.

The Globe Democrat has commence
ed advocating federal interference with
the elections isl the south. The idea is
not new-in fact it is nearly quarter
of century old. 1t cost the Republi-
cans every southern state and also con-
gress.
A very large majority of the citizens
of the Uuited States believe that the
war is over aud that there are enough
honest men in every state to insure q
free and fair ballot.
The Republican party Is cursed with
a certain element which believes that
every Democrat should he disfranchis-
cd and every ex-confederate who Is not
o Republican hanged. This element
has frequently led the party to defeat
and il will do so again in the future.
The radical Republican idea is that
Democrats have no right to vote. They
look upon the. government as piece
of personal property, and the voice Of
the people as the chattering of chin
panZee when it happens to be against
them.
The Globe Democrat is All exponent
of the ultra radical idea. At one time
it's psses belonged tn q corrupt VIII sky
ring which defrauded the government
of large sums Of money. One of the
bosses was imprisoned, hut Ills 1altn IN
the party was not shaken. While in
Jail, it is said, he continued to denounce
Democratic rule. either national, state
or local. His allegiance to the party
which permitted the government to be
defrauded was of lasting endurance.
He at all times advocated g ,vern-
ment by bsyonets at the polls in DEM
oeratie states.
People who are familiar with the his
tory of the Globe Democrat can read
lily expIaisi its desire to disfranchise
Democrats. While published in Mis-
souri,, it persistently and malIciously
misrepresents the state. tits reeogniz-
ed as disgrace to the state and it has
well earned such reputation.
AS an advocate of proscriptive Re-
publican doctrine, it is as much Of a
success as it was an unsuccessful de-
fen.iant in the whisky ring cases. But
all such papers may howl for proscrip-
ton in the south from June till etern-
ity, and yet they will never accomplish
anything. The days of bayoaet rule
in this country belong to the past.
They will never be revived, and COM
paratively few people regret the situa-
tion.-Jeferson City Tribune.

Process Of Fatteninr Oysters.

The business Of planting oysters and
having them grow properly after they are
planted is not very well understood by
the general public. There is q great deal
Of money invested in the industry along
the Delaware bay, and occasionally some
OF those heavily interested in financial
manner come out at the little end OF the
horn. The process Of catching oysters
and fattening them for the market Is, to
say the least, very interesting one
After the oysters are caught they arc
placed oman immense float, which is ali.
tight on all four sides. There are Q num-
Der OF corks In the bottom OF this float,
and after the oysters have been carefully
laid out on the bottom the corks are
withdrawn, allowing the doat to GIL with
water and 60 the bottom Of the bay.
The oysters will then open their mouths
like any other fish and drink TO their
hearts content. After two or three tides
have swept over them they are brought
to the surface once more. BY this time
thev have become plump oysters, ready
for market. New York Graphic.

Medicated rings, having the supposed
power Of alleviating or curing disease,
can be traced back al far as the time OF
Marcus Aurelius. Trolian, physician
of the Fourth century, possessed q signet
ring on which was engraved q Represented
tion OF Hercules strangling the Nem@an
lion, and which was q certain cure for
collie. In our own country Edward tbs
Confessor was presented with q ring
which was an unfailing remedy for
epilepsy, and which was preserved 70
some centuries In Westminster Abbey,
In the cathedral at Perugia IL still shown
a ring which Is said to Be the wedding
ring Of the Virgin Mary, and which has
performed so many miracles that book
was written on them in the Seventeenth
century.
Other marvellous powers besides the
curing OF diseases have been attributed
to rings. Otnet, king Of Lombardy, was
the happy possessor Of one, which would
always-no matter where he wandered
direct him into the right path, ring
which would be useful in London during
November fogs, and many Juveniles and
perhaps adults have sighed for the ring
Of Aladdin which controlled the obedient
and obliging genii. Standard

Time Wasted In Making calls.

What to do, then? '.Lop off decisively
your miscellaneous activities Reduce
the number of your friends. It is very
easy for man to have too many friends.
The value of friendship is in its quality,
not quantity. Beyond certain point, a
mans friends are his worst enemies.
They are his enemies when they waste
his time and strength, and draw him
away from the serious pursuits and lofty
ideals of life.
The case Is still worse with women, as
every sensible woman will acknowledge
with grief and desperation. Why should
a woman spend her life in making and
receiving calls of no real meaning or con-
sequence, and in other petty details?
The trouble is, not that she has friends,
but that she has too many of them.-

A bug In the Ear.

Writers say when bug gets into the
ear do not be frightened, but drown him
with oil or warm water. There is no
philosopher who could sit unmoved with
q bug or fly stamping tattoo upon his
ear drum. Yes, be frightened, for Il
will facilitate your movements. Sweet
oil is perhaps the best thing to keep him
from moving-that is tho first desider.
atum. The Oil, by its thick consistence.
will so entangle and bedraggle its lega
and wings that the intolerable noise viii
be stopped. II oil be not at hand use
any liquid that is not poisonous or cors
rosive. Water viii probably be within
the reach Of every one. This Is also
more liable to float him out, too, than
either sweet oil or glycerine.
1t has been suggested to blow tobacco
smoke into the ear to stupefy tho insect.
We cannot indorse this advise; tobacco
smoke blown into the ear Of q child has
been known to cause alarming symp-
toms. When the movements Of the In
truder have been arrested syringe the
ear gently with warm water. All man.
ner Of insects and bugs have been found
in the ear, but you can never tell Ia q
given case who the rude caller is that is
knocking at the door OF your brain till
you have him out.-Dr. ]. Herbert Clai.

Edison,s Ta1kinr Doll.

Mr.. Edison has, it is stated, devised a
doll with a small phonograph inside,
which talks when the handle is turned.
The phonograph is placed in receptacle
within the chest of the doll, and the
handle protrudes. When it is turned the
words appear to issue from the dolls
mouth. Edison has also devised a clock
which announces the time by speaking,
the talking apparatus being, Of course, o
phonograph. -Cassell's Family Magazine.

SPONGES AT DINNER.
Creatures All Mouth, and How They Feed.

AFeAtufeh All MOuLns ana now lney EeeQs
The sponge has an advantage over the coral
p0lyp in its method of feeding, says the ST.
Louis Globe The coral has a large mouth-in
fact like frog, its head is all mouth. While
some fish are greatly gifted in the matter of
mouth, the sponge beats them all in being moth
ing but mouth. Highly organized sponges have
hundreds Of mouths, or pores which draw in the
water and thus feed the plant on the organized
matter, each hole answering for the purpose Of
a mouth, while the sponges Of low organization
have no fixed pores, but possess the curious
property Of being able to open mouth or pore
at any point where a particle of food appears
and attracts the animal. There is no indica-
tion of when where pore is about TO open,
for the creature is all mouth, and, whenever
its appetite is excited at any point, it simply
opens itself and takes in the food that happens
to be handy then shuts up its temporary
mouth again until another occasion offers, a
state of being which undoubtedly, to the sponge,
has its advantages.
The kinds OF sponges of commerce are nu-
merous. There are the rough grass sponge, the
coarsest variety known to commerce; the Key
West sponge the hedge hog sponge, found COW
cred with prickly points, whence its name !;
the Wine-colOred sponge, the bouquet sponge,
so-called probably because its odor when
brought up from the bottom is n0t that of a
bouquet; the finger sponge, the smallest sponge,
aud last and most costly Of ali, the delicate cup
sponge; all of which may be seen for sale, some
in stores where the sponge is a speciality and
others only in the curiosity shops. In the West
Indies the method of sponge fishing is uniform,
a water glass, or long tube with piece of glass
in the bottom, locating the sponges, then pole
armed with hook being employed to detach
and bring them TO the surface. In some parts
of the world divers find sponge fishing profit
able industry, and descend to considerable dis
tances bringing up the sponges in their hands
and under their arms, but in general the
method already described is that employed
both in the West and East Indies.
! The sponge is not yet cultivated, only because
4 the natural supply is as yet great, and probably
/ viii always continue so; because the sponge is
! OF very quick growth, and in tropical seas
! found everywhere on the bottom. Over ,000,.
! 900 spongcs Of all sizes aud varieties are every
year shipped from the Bahama Islands, bring
! ing in an annual income to the islanders Of over
| 100000. Should the natural supply of sponges
| diminish, there is no reason why they should
not be raised artifcially, as oysters are, and
perhaps, in future, should the demand in
crease or supply fall OF, sponge reservation
/ viii be employed, for the uses Of the sponge are
/ manifold, and the demand is constantly enlarg
| ing.
