Death of General s.Phir' Kearney.

Colonel w. l.. Goldsmith of the
Mississippi gives the following account
Of the death OF General Kearney, who
was killed by soldiers Of hls regiment
in September, 1862;
The battle of Chantilly was fought
late in the afternoon amid severe
storm of wind and rain. 1t was
gloomy, dark, depressing afternoon,
and night was fast approaching. Our
brigade had not fired n gun, but was
on the extreme left of our forces and
behind worm rail fence, grown up
thick with saplings and bushes-an ex-
cellent place for ambushing. The
fighting was all to our right. had,
charge of the skirmish line, some 200
yards in advance of our line of battle,
and i'll q cornfield which gently sloped
up toward the direction of the FEEDER
ais. Presently 1 saw a line of blue
majestically moving toward us, several
hundred yards away, and l remember
distinctly the powerful impression
it made on my mind at the time. AS
it came forward, slowly and grandly,
amidst the thickening gloom of that
dreary September evening, it reminded
me of an incoming blue wave OF the
great ocean coming toward us. They
had no skirmish line, and l withdrew
our forces back to the main line, and
as far as | could tried to get the men
to hold their fire until the enemy came
close up. Some of our men COM
menced firing before the enemy came
close enough, which spoiled the whole
game. The Federals were checked and
driven back so easily that we knew
something was the matter, and attribu-
ted their timidity to the demoralizlng
influence of defeat at Second Manassas
only few days before; but on re-es-
tablishment of our skirmish line we
discovered that the gallant General
Phil Kearney had been killed, and this
was the cause OF the Federals' weak at
tempt The grief of our entire army
was marked ana sincere over this sad
news, and General Lee sent his body
through the lines next day, to the great
satisfaction and approval of us all.
General Kearney was killed by the for
ty-ninth Georgia regiment, beloved
and mourned by the blue and gray.

A Pianist's Hours Of Pract ce.

Practice at the piano for fill 'en or
sixteen hours a day is often necessary,
NJ. Paderewsli told an interviewer, to
enable him to keep up his ability and
reputation as a public performer.
Once, when getting up anew program
he practised for seventeen hours daily.
One must always be at it, he says, to
keep fingers and memory under con-
troll. NJ. Paderewski finds playing at
billiards the best recreation. Nothing
else that he has tried takes his thoughts
off his work SO effectively. Ths

are finely developed. but those of his

to the ringing crack, crack, crack, of
six shots sent i'll quick succession
among the wolves. With loud yelp-
ings the pack bounded away, all but
one, which rolled and tumbled about
on the sands in his death struggle.
The searching party heard the shots,
and hastened toward the sound. They
were met by the General leading Oily
Stephan, who was carrying the canary
with great care. The first man to learn
the good news fired his pistol; the
man repeated the signal, and thus, in
u few seconds, it was known among all
the searchers that the little girl was
found.

Although the consumption of ice in
New York city reaches about 3,OOO,-
900 tonsa year it is necessary to cutand
store twice that amount in order to al
low for the meltage and waste which
is necessarily attendant upon the stor-
ing of this commodity for so many
months before it is wanted for the
market and transportation to the city.
The greatest waste occurs in cutting
the blocks into small pieces, which
exposes a greater surface to the atmos-
phere, and consequently there is a
greater meltage. = New York Tri-

WASTED RICHES.
The Island of Hayti Has Gone to
The Dogs.
A Beautiful Country Ruined By
Numerous Revolutions.

Not the least interesting feature OF
the place is the barracks, where IS
quartered portion of Hippolyte's
valiant army, says writer III the
Island ofHayti in the Providence Jour
nal. The only attempt at uniform IS
suit of blue overalls, generally IN the
last stage of delapidation, and cap
ornamented with red, yellow or blue
braid, according to the fancy of the
wearer. Some few have shoes or
straw slippers, but the majority are
barefooted. They are armed, however,
with fairly good muskets, and many OF
them carry ugly looking knives. l saw
large number of the ''soldiers" on
the plaza or public square, some play
ing at dice or cards, some talking,
others sleeping, and all lazy, dirty and
ragged. This plaza, which WAS origi-
nally well laid out and which actually
boasted an ancient fountain in the
center, was Uttered with refuse,
rooted up by hogs and filthy
with house offal The ancient
paved walks which originally traversed
it were badly broken and the loose
stones were widely scattered by the
hogs. Outside of the town and as far
as the eye can reach extends hilly
country covered with forest In
long tramp through this country we
saw no cultivated land. And yet this
| land is said to be extremely fertile and
to yield largely any tropical product
that is planted upon it, From an ex-
animation of an outcropping ledge OF
rock | decided that the soil was under
laid with limestone, and such soil IS
nearly always rich. But the richness
of this island is wasted, for even the
old plantations which were well set
with coffee, oranges and cocoanuts are
grown up to tropical forest and yield
next to nothing. Right in the midst
of Jungle of wild trees and bushes L
found traces of an old orange and
mango grove, indicated by the remains
of straight rows in which these trees
were originally planted. And with
the decline and ruin of the plantations
has declined everything in connection
with them. Even the old carriage
| roads which originally traversed the
island and formed channel for con-
veying the produce to the ports are
now only bride paths, being COM
pletely overgrown with forest and
bushes.
And this is Hayti, the Hispaniola of
Columbus, the pride and glory of the
great admiral! For it will be remem-
bered that, after examining the other
large islands of the West Indies, CO.
lumbus decided that this one was the
richest and best. And later, when un-
der French rule, it was one of the
fairest and wealthiest spots in the
civilized world. The whole republic,
in fact, is gigantic farce. No nation
has ever shown itself more utterly
incapable of self-government than the
black republic. In some eighty years
of Haytian independence there have
been more than ninety revolutions.
The children, with few exceptions,
grow up in absolute ignorance, and
with deep, inborn hatred of the
white man. The rulers are blood
thirsty tyrants and the country has de-
generated into tropical Wilderness.
