The 95lh Ohio at GETTYSBURG.

q. 8. Clements, Co. II, 25th Ohio, Center Hall,
Pa, having read Col. Callaghan's (4th Ohio) let.
ter. in which he says his regiment formed on
the right of the 14th Conn, on the night Of July
2, at Gettysburg. knows this to be fact; but it
seems he failed to look in front Of where his
regiment formed, or he would have seen part
OF the Eleventh Corps. or at least one regiment
of 1t, the 18th Ohio. The writer was a Sergeant,
and was detailed to 90 about half a mile TO the
right Of where the regiment was in line and
scout piece of woods and find out what the
rebels were doing. He got hack safely, by the
skin Of his teeth, and found that his regiment
had been sent out as skirmishers in front of
Weidrichs and Ricketts, batteries, where they
remained until about o'clock. when they were
ordered into the first line nc the stone wall.
This was on the morning of the 81, and they
remained there until o'clock of the 18th. When
the charge was made on those batteries the
Johnnies charged down the hill put their big
feet on the stone wall and went over like deer,
over the heads of tho whole Of the writer's
regiment the grade being steep and the wall
not more than 90 inches high. The left of the
writer's regiment was on the pike az the edge
of the town. An old barn was in front Of the
line. and they lost great many men by the
rebel sharpshOoters in the field and houses. He

done all the fighting.

Our Huge Internal Commerce.



Statistics Of our internal commerce have
never been accurately collected, but it has
been estimated that the domestic produce
moved aud exchanged in this country last
year amounted in value TO S25, 200, 900, 900.
The annual river commerce of Cincinnati
is valued at more than $50.0OO,0 900. The
tonnage that passes up and down the De
troit River annually is greater than that
which enters the port of Liverpool. The
number of vessels that enter and clear at
Chicago exceeds every year by 1000 the
number of those that enter and clear at
New York. The tonnage passing through
the Sault Ste. Marie in 1890 exceeded that
passing through the great Suez Canal by
LOCO, 600 tons. Our lake, river, and coast
wise tonnage amounts to nearly 4,000,0 900.
The present marvellous cheapness of water
transportation is of inestlmable value to
the people in enabling that transportation
to compete with railroads and regulate
their charges. Naturally the demand for
the improvement of the lake harbors, of
connecting streams and canals. and of the
immense wster-courses of this country has
increased in its importantly with the in
crease of this commerce but the increasing
appropriations in the river and harbor bills
are not even yet one-half as large as the
amounts proposed by the engineer board.

\ Matter for Congratulation
Our Would-b be Aristocrats.
+ Prof. Thomas Da,idson i,

Prof. Thomas UaridsOn in the Forum.
Thousands of American young men, of
fair education and excellent possibilities,
captivated by the pictures of English
aristocratic life drawn in English novels,
are learning to despise the simple, rational,
useful life of the worthy American citizen,
and to court consideration and vulgar pop
ularity by adopting the habits, and leading
the useless lives, Of English lords. As is
usual in such cases, the copy is a caricature
of the original The untitled American
lord proves usually to be vulgar creature.
having to assert his self-cOnferred lordship
by all that is most unattractive, most in
humane, and most un-American-and that
is good deal-in the English aristocrat.
In England, aristocracy has no need to dis
play or to obtrude itself; in America it can
exist only by display and obtrusion. For
this reason the American would-be noble
man must necessarily court attention and
try to strike the vulgar imagination by the
accidentals Of aristocracy, such as any
boorish Dives can command-houses,
horses. turnouts, yachts. opera boxes, and
the like And the vulgar are impressed by
such things. bow down In servile reverence
before them, and do their best to make a
similar display.

Drowning the Bible.

The end Of all true Bible teaching says
George w. Gable in Ihe Lddies' Komr JoHr-
nal, is the development of a better like
ness of Christ In the pupils conduct. Not
headlong attempt 10 show Christ man
ifestly set forth in every page and para
graph that would be trying to begin at
the top to mount Jacobs ladder. Not the
crammine of final crowniug truths of
Chris tianity into parts of Scripture that
do not really contain them; distortng the
Bible to teach Chri -tianity; not contriv-
ing allegorical or symbolic meanings and
then swampng and sinking them with
eager and farfetched moralizings; drown
ing the Bible to teach Christianity; not
expanding, even in the apostolic writings,
upon the eyer-so valuable non-essentials
that accompany Christianity, as if they
were parts of its essence. The true use
of the Bible is none of these. Its true use N
a teachers hands is for him to main tain
that all truth, all beauty, are parts of
Christianity, and finding whatever truth
and beauty are really contained in the
page before him, to relate and adapt them
accurately and with all skillful dispatch,
to Christianity's only one or two supreme
essentials.

the word Of praise from his faithful en-
