REV. y. B. CARROLL, OF Albany, Ga,
has found some interesting relics on the
battlefield of Jonesboro. They consist
Of the barrel Of an old muzzle-load-
ing musket that was pulled from tho

a bayonet that has been placed on the
muzzle of the barrel and several bullets,
battered by their contact with obstacles
on tho field.
GENERAL ALFRED II. TERRY, U. S.
Army, retired, now lives at Hartford,
Ct, which is his native city, and al
though but little is heard of him nova
days, those who knew him as an officer
in the army and as a commander of
troops in action, and who are acquainted
with the history Of the war. are aware
that few, If any, are deserving OF more
renown than is General Terry.
A TOUCHING instance of tho respect
felt for old soldiers occurred on a Bos-
ton horse-car crowded with passengers.
The conductor had refused severed
women access to the car, saying. IT
have not vacant seat" At that mo-
ment venerable soldier accompanied
by younger man in uniform, came
up. Every person in the seat rose and
made room for the old soldier, touched
by the remembrance of the battles he
had fought for his country.
THE fight at Fredericksburg, on De.
cember IS, 1862, was bloody one. 1t
lasted all day long, and at night 27,OOC
dead and wounded men lay upon the
battlefield, 1000 of them being Confed.

battle II. b. Treadwell, now resident
of Brunswick, and who was member of
the Tenth Georgia Battalion, command
cd ~ Major Emory Rylander, Of Ameri-
Gus, went out on the battlefield. Near
two Federal soldiers, who appeared to
be father and son, he found a razor,
razor strop, shaving brush and small
piece of soap. These he took, and, hay-
ing used up the other portions OF the
outfit, still uses the razor when he wants
to shave.

EXTRACTING TEETH.
Hints That Should Bc Borne in Mind
Under Some Conditions.

Hints That Should Bc Borne in Mind
Under Some Conditions.
The extraction of teeth is usually &C.
companied by slight flow of blood,
which ordinarily ceases before the pa.
tient quits the dentists office Where
this is not the case, or where the
hemorrhage breaks out afresh when
medical advice is not at hand, it should
be borne in mind that the first and
most natural check is the clotting OF
the blood in the cavity, and this should
not be disturbed. If it is necessary to
rinse the mouth, let it be done very
carefully, so as not to dislodge the clot,
if one is forming. Where this does not
occur, the first recourse should be to an
astringent, and tannin is the best of all.
II thaC is not at hand, fine powdered
alum will answer worry we'll, burnt cork
may be sprinkled over the surface, or a
little ball of spiders web, lightly
pressed into the wound, may answer the
purpose when other means fail, as this
pest of every housekeeper is an inval-
liable styptic. In addition to these, u
compress may be necessary, and an
article which will answer all purposes
may be made for an emergency by cut
ting V-shaped slit in a cork of the
right dimensions to pass over tho
wounded gum. This may be lightly
pressed into place by the teeth of tho
other jaw, and as it is applied pledget
of lint or similar dressing may proper
ly be fitted to the cavity, though often
the compress alone will prove effectlal.
1t is useful, also, in such cases, to main
tain an erect position Of the patient,
either sitting or standing. Warm foot
baths are also helpful with friction of
the lower limbs, to divert the blood
from the head as much as practicable.
These directions and suggestions apply,
of course, to such occasions as require
treatment in the absence, or awaiting
the arrival, of the family physician or
the dentist-Good Housekeeping.

Prof. Kraft Ebing, the famous special

interesting case which came before an
Austrian court of justice about year

doctors to take note of it. In November.

Way accused the latter of having OBJ
tanned from him 500 horins under false

that this was quite true but that Count

With the resolution and disciplined
valor becoming men fighting as you are,
for all worth living or dying for, you
can but march to decisive victory over
the agrarian mercenaries sent to subju-
gate and despoil you of your liberties,
property and honor. Remember the
precious stake involved; remember the
dependence of your mothers, your wives,
your sisters and your children on tho
result; remember the fair, broad,
abounding land, the happy homes and
families that will be desolatod by your
defeat. The eyes and the hopes OF eight
millions of people rest upon you; you
are expected to show yourselves worthy
of you race and lineage-worthy OF the
women of the South, whose
noble devotion in the war has never
been exceeded in any time. With such
incentives TO brave deeds and with tho
trust that God is with us, your Generals
will lead you confidently to the COM

Taking the Indian Census.

Deacon Gibson gives the following
account of census taking at the Pvra-
mid Reservation, to the Carson Tri-
bune: He appointed smart Indian
as Census Marshal, who made his re-
port III bundles of sticks; for children
one year cid, bundles of green sticks
of "a certain length; for those from five
to seven years, sticks somewhat long
er; for grown persons long sticks of
medium texture, and for old folks dry
and withered ones, the number in each
bundle according with that of the sew
era classes represented. The method
OF designating the sexes was pecu-
liar cut on the back of the sticks.
There is no doubt as to the correct
ness of the report, and probably it was
the most peculiar ever made by a
marshal.

Decoration Day.

Though no previous arrangements
had been made to celebrate this ma
tiona. holiday in Ely, it was by spon-
taneous impulse appropriately OBJ
served. Early in the day groups of
people wendell their way to the ceme-
terry, bearing baskets OF sweet flowers
interviewer in Wreaths and other
beautiful designs by the green foliage
of Spring. BY noon quite gathering
ladies, children and men-were on
the ground, and all the graves decora-
ted-many of then hidden in beds of
flowers, laid on by loving hands. Mr..
Alex. Wilson being called on made
the following impromptu address:
When, in the conception of a great
soul, the departed General of the Re-
public founded this beautiful observ-
ance, he did not over-estimate the
ready sympathy of his countrymen.
To-day, from North to South, from
East to West, the sorrowing friends
go forth to pay this tribute of respect
and love. Beneath the sod, in conce-
NAL dust, the blue and the gray We're
sleeping, the long enmity was lost,
the grave had buried all. And though
the immediate cause of this observ-
ance was the war; once it was started
the floodgates of the soul were opened
to those bereaved ofevery kind. And
so the same true hearts that prompted
men to war and women to enc ourage,
now prompts men TO tears and women
to dedication.
Each plying tear let fall upon
grave serves but to feed tie unborn
growth-each precious drop from out
the fountains of the heart waters the
seeds Of kindness and love
To thoughtless youth all things are
bright. The flowers We scatter to-day
are to them but emblems of beauty.
The little mounds are naught but
monds. the flowers are naught but
flowers, bat to those Of us who are
elder and t. those whose dear ones lie
beneath those mounds, their existence
is Il sacristv. Wet with the verbal
dews, sad with their solemn mysteries,
our bowed hearts bend down to greet
them in recognition of the ccaseless
mystery of death.
But even rs the flowers shall surely
fade-even as their bloom shall van
ish-so surely shall the coming year
bring forth fresh blossoms wherewith
to deck these graves. So, too, shall in
the great hereafter the buried ones
come forth.
To all of we departed-Vale, vale |!
