NOTES ABOUT GAMES.

Among famous Asiatic writer's on
chess are Ali Shatranji, Suli, Damari,
Sokeiller. Rhazes, Bilbu, Sherf, Moham-
med and Ghulam Kassim, who have
written in Arabic, Persian and several
dialects of Hindostanee of the theory
and mysteries of the game.
The lot-casting mentioned in the
Scriptures was performed by the use
of number of pebbles, one or more be-
ing colored black. The pebbles were
placed in an urn or helmet and shaken.
and, by their falling out, the business
in hand was determined.
When James ". of Scotland came to
London to propose for the hand of Mar
garet, the daughter of Henry VII, he
was somewhat Disguised to find her, at
their first meeting. so busily engaged in
a game of cards that she was scarcely
able to give him any attention.
1t is a singular fact that while all
other games of chance or skill have
at one time or another been denounced
by the clergy of every faith, chess alone
has received their appreciation, and
among the best players of every land
have been clergymen. priests. ahbots
and bishops

LOSS or HORSES IN WAR.
1t Is Far Heavier in Proportion Than
That of Men.

1t Is Far Heavier in Proportion Than
That of Men.
We hear very little about the loss of
horses in war. Yet not only is it pro-
digious, but it's influence has been fatal
In many engagements. Wellington re.
treated from Salamanca mainly, if not
solely, owing to the death of large
proportion of his horses, and the in
Efficiency through want and exhaus-
tion, of the remainder. When Napo-
Icons horses were dying at the rate Of
some thousands a day in the terrible
Russian winter he only made light of
it, remarking that he wished them a
happy journey. But his campaign
might have terminated differently if
the horses had not died. The loss OF
horses is much greater than the loss of
men, and by far the greater proportion
ire destroyed by starvation and dis
case.
The horse labors under the disadvan.
age of Offering a greater target area
han the man. When, therefore, charg-
ing cavalry have to cover good deal of
ground before reaching the enemy,
more horses than men are likely to be
Silled by the enemy's artillery and by
small arms. At Fontenoy, where the
British cavalry were exposed to heavy
lire from the French artillery, the
killed, wounded and missing men num-
oered 81, 100, and rs, respectively; the
killed, wounded and missing horses,
557.259. and 39-or totals of 81 men
and 635 horses. In the Balaklava bat
tie the Light brigade lost ESQ out of
500 men, and 800 out of eco horses.
In the battle of Waterloo the French

The Promised Return of Good
Times-The So-Called Business
Boom.

It should not be forgotten that the
brightest promises of prosperity and
renewed business has already been
promised to the people. Thousands of
men who were persuaded to east their
ballots for the Republican nominees
even against5their honest convictions,
have been led to believe that the
busy hum of industry would be heard
throughout the land. Smoke from the
idle furnaces would be seen ascending
to the skies, and better still employ
ment would be given to thousands of
honest laborers, now that conf
dence has been restored and the Re-
publicanonominee chosen as the rep
resentaiives Of the. great Union for the
next four years. The Metropolitan
press united in giving OUT this cheer
ing piece OF Information and all hearts
were made glad at the joyful tidings.
We feared at the time that this roseate
colored statement had come too soon
and somewhat unauthorized from the
past conditions which existed in ev-
cry section of the country. 1t was
difficult for Us TO believe that in so
short time the magic hand of even
untold millions could thus early bring
about these wonderful changes. Some
factories and some furnaces, which for
selfish reasons were closed before the
late election, may have been re-opened,
but il is somewhat singular fact in
this hasty era of prosperity, THAT wages
have recently been cut and laborers
discharged from industrial enterprises
and great railroad corporations. We
are ready to hail with delight this
boosted return of prosperity, and we
will be pleased TO record all the new
enterprises started and give publicity
to all the fortunate mechanics and la
borers who may be employed through
the agency of this new boom which is
claimed to have come to us through
the late election.
