train on a line running east out of Detroit, as
he entered the car.
There was a very general response in the
shape Of pasteboard until he came to a farmer,
who was very earnestly looking out Of the
window.

The man paid no attention.
"Pll take your ticket, If you please"
The man looked up at him.

The man sighed, aud said ho would 70 of

After another look tho man shook his head.
" Let her 60 Captain"
The conductor pulled the rope. The air

enemy in dense wood. The ambuscaie was an
effective on the part OF the cEemy. Col.
Wyndham aud his men fought desperately, but
they were surrounded on all sides. and were
consequently badly cut up. Col. Wyndham
was taken prisoner the Tegimcutal cOlOrs lost,
aud 30 men, including Capis. Shelmire, Clark,
and Harris
But this victory Of the enemy was short
lived, for little later on, just before sundOwn,
Gen. Bayard, with four companies of Kane's
Rides (Pennsylvania Buckg,ils) and the 1st
Ia Cav, entered the woods Immediately
after entering the Bucktails encountered a
regiment of the enemy's cavalry, with artil-
lory and a regiment OF infantry, from which
the Bucktails received
A TERRIFIC AND DAMAGING FIRE.
The engagement lasted only half an hour,
during which the Bucktails lost upward Of 40
IN killed, wounded and missing. Col. Kane
was wounded and taken prisoner; Capt. Tay-
Tor a prisoner, Capt. blanchard shot through
both legs, Lieut.. Swayne wounded. This bat
TALON was, and is still, entitled 10 the highest
consideration of the Government for their
splendid conduct. At the critical moment in
this episode, Col. Cuseret with his brigade
came to the relief OF Gen. Bayard, when the
enemy retreated in disorder, leaving our forces
IN possession Of their camp, with their dead and
wounded left i'm our hands.
With the growing darkness the enemy con-
tinucd their retreat, being continually harassed
by our advancing forces.
This short but intensely-inlctive engage
ment was among the noted events Of the war.
and notwithstanding the severe loss Of which
i have written having beiallcn our arms,
our loss was small rs compared with that Of
the enemy, and by this event the whole Con-
federacy was thrown into mourning scarcely
less intense than that experienced by tho death
of "Stonewall" Jackson. IL was in this en-
gagement that the pride Of tho Valley Of the
Shenandoah, tho beloved Of all the army. the
companion Of Jackson. the brave, lion hearted
Gen. Turner Ashby fell.
It will, perhaps, be interesting reading, espe-
cially TO the Maryland soldiers 20 know that
tho infantry regiment alluded to as being in
the woods and sustaining heroic part in this
engagement was known as the 1st Md, Col.
lsfterward GeneraD Bradley r. Johnson COM
manding. The jSth Va. was the first regiment
engaged, but Col. Johnson charged through
tho woods to the left in support Of the 5sth.
Col. JOhnson's regiment suffered severely, and
the Colonel had his horse shot from under him
Al almost the same moment that Gen. Ashby's
horse was killed, and a moment later Ashby
himself fell.

No century ever pulsated with nobler pur-
pose or more vigorous endeavor than this 18th.
The apparent drifting of our moral and intel
lectua life for 30 years past has been not only
in appearance. We are in the last decade Of
the century; events DO not crowd so much as
ideas. These will hasten on tO fuIflment.
They cover every field Of human energy.
Education is at the bottom Of all hope and
progress; and out Of education has Just been
born the enthusiasm called University Ex-
tension" n term that fails wholly 70 convey TO
the popular mind the novelty and the greatness
Of the purpose conceived. Not less grand and
natural as a result Of the past is the conception
Of a Worldwide Democratic Church. This
IS only the application Of Republicanism to
theology and religious effort. It means the
displacement Of a worldwide mOnarchical
church by a church based on popular sentiment
and individual liberty IL is possible. The
Pope himself begins to desert the monarchy.
His recent encyCical is a plain effort to read
just the old church to modern progress

Another question which The Woman has

This would interest persons Of both sexes. 1t

CaBada's Growing Debt.

The rapid, the startling growth Of the debt Of
Canada, which has increased from S75, ,2O9 7i2
in 1870 to $238, 100000 in 1890, with popua-
ton almost at a stand5till and 4 stagnant trade,
has struck calm, impartial Observers with the
idea that there has been something wrong in
the Government Of a peaceful young State Of
enormous extent and great natural resources.
OF course, a large portion Of this debt was
incurred for the construction of railways, i'm
proyements Of canals and similar political and
commercial works; but the results or returns
do not compensate for tho vastness Of the new
debt, with its oppressive load Of interest. They
freely comment upon the fact that while the
United States have reduced their debt from
$50 to $3.50 per head in 20 years, Canada has
run up hers from S2l TO Si7.

Better times are surely at hand for the Amer
lean farmer. The increased value and supply
Of agricultural products and live stock may
bring our farmers nearly one billion dollars
more than they have received Of late years.
The above summary shows that his three great
cereal crops will probably net him SiJO,00O,0O
more than he got for the same crop. last year.
His receipts will be over $500, 900 600 more than
he has received for these crops on the average
during the past ii years. Cotton and rice will
command better prices than last season. Cattle
are worth ird more than Is months since,
with other stock in proportion. Tobacco is adj
yanCing heavily for cigar leaf, hops are firm at
good prices, Winter fruit will command large
values, and all vegetables arc yielding fairly,
with every indication of remunerative mar
ket. The export outlook WAS never better;
immensely increased sums will be sent to the
United States for our produce. UlteriOr in
huences may, of course, interfere with this
brilliant prospect. but the AmericHa AgricHLtiTist
confesses that it is beginning % share more
freely the hopes Of certain well-infOrmed but
conservative agriculturists who predict better
profits for the farmers Of the United States
during the next five years than ever before.
There will be no return of war prices" but
tho money received above expenses will go
further and enable the farmerto get more value
out OF his profits than at any previous period.

THE UNITARIANS.
Continued from First pags.)

But, on the whole, stiff Calvinism il now
regarded "a au absurdity in every pulpit in
America. On the whole, the Church of
America believes, as the great Methodist
Church believes, Situations free it's free
for you and me.p On the whole, the Church
believes in character. On the whole, the
Church believes that every individual man
has his own duty before God, and must ap-
prOach God for himself On the whole the
Church does not believe in predestiuatiOn OF
foreOrdination. If it rejects this, 10 has 10
reject the rest of the Medieval doctrines
So that, on the whole the Unitarians feel
that the protest of their fathers, and the
men who worked with their fathers, was by
no means i'm vain.
Indeed, the Constitutions Of the United
States and Of the several States Of America
ali rest on the presumption that men love
the right and wish its advancement. That
IL to say, they rest on universal suffrage.
Now, no nation would trust its affairs to
UNIVERSAL SUFFRAGE
if it believed that men are the children Ol
wrath, incapable Of good, and led by the
devil.
Again, all the American States insist on
universal education. But if they believed
that every one was born a child Of wrath they
would not have placed the great advantages
of intellectual education in their hands.
That is to say, if we were surrounded by an
army Of devils, we should not place the best
weapons at their dispO5aL.
This is as much IA to say that since the
American people have been intrusted with
the making Of their own institutions, they
have based those institutions on the D0stu-
late Of the Unitarian Church, which is that
all men and women are children Of God
that they may partake Of the divine nature;
ard that, on the whole, their desire is TO
look upward and press forward.
