Modern Cave Dweiiers.


Many accounts of travellers go to show thai
residence in caves is not rare in modern times
and that it constitutes feature of life though
not an important one, in some of the most
civilized countries in Europe. Some OF tbs
most interesting pages in Mrs. Olivia NJ. Stones
account of her visit to the Canary Island.
(Teneriffe and Its Six Satellites) relate to the
cave villages, still inhabited by curious frog
lodyte population-mostly pOtters-found In
various places in Gran Canaria Appositely to
an account by the Rev. III. Z. ToZer of certain
underground rock-hewn churches in southern
Italy, Mr.. J. Hoskyns AbrahalI relates that
when visiting Monte Vulture and while a
guest of Signor Bozza, at Baril, having ex-
pressed surprised at learning the number OF
inhabitants in the place, his host told him that
the poor lived in caves followed out Of the
side of the mountain, and took him into one OF
the rock hewn dwellings; and he accounts for
their existence by the facility with which they
are formed. The rock cut village of Gh'mras-
sen, IN the Ourghemma, southern Tunis, con-
sists of rows of snug family dwellings close to
each other, followed out of the side Of cliff,
the top of which at an oyerhanging point is
crowned by the remains of a small mosque.
At recent meeting of the Royal Geograph-
ical Society of Madrid, DIR. Bide gave an account
of his exploration Of O wild district in the
province of Cacsres, which he represented as
still inhabited by strange people, who speak
a curious pGtois, and live in caves and inacces-
sble retreats. They have hairy skin. and
have hitherto displayed strong repugnance
to mixing with their Spanish and Portuguese
neighbors. Roads have lately been pushed into
the district inhabitated by these "Jurdes," and
they are beginning to learn the Castillian Ian.

On the morning of the 36tb il was moved
enthusiastically, across the Centerville-Groye-
ton Pike and out toward Sudey Church, to a
grove on the right of the army, where KNAPP
sacks were deposited (mine has not been re-
covered yet, either.
In the afternoon tho brigade was moved to
the extreme left, on the road which runs from
Sudley Church to New Market, crossing the
pike at right angles nearly. the pike at this
point being in hollow. The brigade passed
soath some distance into woods, and had
halted in the dusty road, the men resting be-
side it, when from further to the south, up the
road from New Market, dashed Gen. Mcdowell
and his staff. The General shouted Il copy

Now, as we had moved down we had seen

very mistaken idea. But we followed him.

tho open field which surrounded what had
been the Henry House, we fled left (westl

us into place wherewe were needed, and he

came. Hartsuf's Brigade suffered severely.

A Speech In a Sentence.

Wendell Phillips used to tell this adecdote Of
a crowded meeting in Faneuil Hall, where
Frederick Douglass was chief speaker: Doug.
lass had been describing the wrongs of hi:
race; as he proceeded he grew more and more
excited, and ended by saying that they had nc
hope of justice from the whites, no possible re-
dress except by force. 1t must come to blood
they must fight for themselves and redeem
themselves, or it would never be done. The
old negress, Sojourner Truth, was sitting tall
and dark, on the front seat facing the platform.
In the hush of deep feeling, after Douglass sat
down, her deep, peculiar voice was heard all
over the house: Frederick, Is God dead ?"
The effect was electrical, changing as by a
flash the whole feeling of the audience Not
another word she said or needed to say; her
speech had been made.

I. B. Kirk, Co. II, 18th Ohio, 730 W. Wayne

he saw the astonishing statement that Gen.
Robinson fought with his regiment (4th Ohio
at Rich Mountain. Oct. rs, 1861. The writer
says that the only battle of Rich Mountain
that he has ever heard of was fought July II,
1861. and the 4th Ohio was not in it. He thinks
that Gen. Robinson has enough glory without
attaching this fight to his record. A brigade
consisting of three Indiana regiments, one OF
them Milroy's, and the 10Th Ohio, Col. Beatty
commanding, all under "Old Rosey," did that
little job If any Of the comrades do not be-
