 in Weight.
 London, Sept. S0.-The Standards cor respondent in Berlin Is authority for the statement that Professor Leyden dag nosed the cxar's ailment as Bright's disease in an advanced stage. On the other hand the Vienna Tageblatt main tains on the authority of Russian diplomat that the czar Is suffering from neurssthsnia coupled with anasmia in addition to kidney disease. The czar's condition, 1t is said, was made worse by cold which he caught two nights before leaving St. Petersburg. He went to the telegraph office in the winter palace at 1 @. m.. and dictated message to Abbas Human in the Caucasus con- cerning the death of his favorite son, George, and waited an hour and half In the dark, bare office for . reply from the doctor. He was not satisfied with the reply and returning to his bed room, threw himself into an armchair and wept He cried: "Oh, God! What have done to be % severely pun ishsd."
 The czar could not sleep through thinking of his son George. During the first night of his stay in Georges resi- dence in Spala the czar arose from hs bed, went to his sons room and watch ed his sleeping son for 8 long time. When returning to his room he went through cold passage and was at- tackled with rheumatism, which made his condition still worse. It is said he greatly preferred George to the czare- witch.
 The Times will publish tomorrow the following dispatch from its corres- pondent in St. Petersburg:
 Tho czar and Grand Duke George will start immediately for Livelda, where they will pass the winter. The imperial yachts Polar Star and Tsarona will sail on Monday from Cronstadt for the CrimsA. The cxar has lost enor- mously in weight in the last few weeks. He now looks very i'll.

At the battle of ChickamaUga johnny
Glenn lost his guidon. but instead Of
going to the rear, as he was told. he
picked up a muskes-there were hOu-
sands scattered about that awful sum-
mer day-and bravely took his place in
the ranks.
Johnny's regiment did good deal of
firing lying down that day. and he fol-
lowed the fashion of his comrades, and
loaded and fired as rapidly as the best.
Late in the afternoon the regiment,
fell back to the hill which Thomas made
immortal, but Johnny did not hear the
order. He was left al most alone in the
whirl of the battle, and did not discover
his danger till he heard the weli-known
yells of the enemy about him.
Johnny had his piece loaded when he
sprang TO his feet and started to run for

As Johnny looked up he brought his
piece to an order arms slipped his
hand to the hammer, cooked it, and
as quickly raised the musket and fired
and the officer reeled and fell from the
saddle
The next minute the boy. with hun
dred others, was scooped up a prisoner.
but before he had gone back hundred
yards he was recaptured by his own
regiment. as were his companions, and
carried up the hill amid ringing cheers.
After the battle Gen. Rosecrans made
the boy sergeant, and he Wore the
chevrons with as much pride as ever
general felt in his stars. Secretary
Chase forwarded him silver medal,
and the boy would have been sent TO
West Point. but he lacked four years OF
the legal age.
After this Johnny Glenn became an
orderly at headquarters, and he per-
formed his duties as well and modestly
as when he beat the drum for the
Tweniy-second Michigan.
He is now, believe. captain IN The

the youngest veteran in the service.

have spoken with Confederate and
Union soldiers who took part in the
desperate battle of Allatoona Pass in
Georgia. on the 9Th of October, 1864, and
all are agreed that for the numbers
engaged and the bloody nature of the
work, il has no parallel in the history of
our war.
Gen. John NJ Corse, late a resident OF
Boston, with about 1000 men. was
pressed in by Gen. French, of Hoods
command, with a force estimated at
5000, all trained and tried veterans.
Although hardly one-fourth the enemy
in numbers, we had vastly the ad-
vantage in position, and, thanks to
Colonel. afterwards general, Tourtlette,
who had command after we came down
from Atlanta, the place was we'll fOrti-
fed, though it was deficient in artillery
and particularly in artillery ammuni-
ton.

Coming had its origin IN this fight.

for the telegraph lines were DESTROYED,
Can you hold out, help is coming?'' To
which, it is said. Corse signaled back
the confident, but rather profane re-
Spouse, ''I'Il hold out till HI freezes
over"
Soon after sunrise the enemy ap-
peared on the hills and in the woods all
about the fort, and flag of truce was
sent in by Gen. French, demanding, by
virtue of his superior force, an immedl-
ate surrender. Corse replied in effect
that he was there to fight, and that he
was ready.
At once six batteries opened on our
works, and from the enclrcling
lines of men IN gray such a storm
of lead was poured in that Moth
Ing could stand exposed against it..
Young's Texans and Sears Georgians
charged again and again on our works.
but the admirable disposition of our
men made every effort at dislodgment
futile.
Here and there the skeletons of regi
meuts on the advance works were
driven back On the main body, and by
noon one-half of Corse's garrison was
killed or wounded.
From the first it seemed a hopeless
fight. but never before nor afterward
did see men so resolved to hold out or
die as were those vino defended the
