Petersburg was told with thrilling eff

enemy in front of that city, capturing
100 prisoners, several cannon, one

Gen. Burnside.
During the seige of Petersburg,
which continued for nine and a half
months, the Fifty-eighth for two
months was at the extreme right of

ran up three sides of the hill, within
which was the mouth of the tunnel
that led to the foot of the rebels fort.
When the explosion occurred mass OF

bodies and many cannon, rose high

BROTHERS of THE COAST.

A remarkable secret society Is said
to have been formed in France. II Is
known az "The Brothers Of the Coast"
and consists OF school boys, II Is con-
trolled by three chiefs" with head
quarters in Paris. The head chief Is
practically a despot, II Is said, and ne
has under him a million and half sub
jects. The meetings are secret, Few
members Of the order know who the
chief is. All they know Is that he Is a
boy, like themselves. and that his turn
expires when he leaves school. The an
nual Zee Il ten francs, so il viii be seen
the order has ample funds. II It is true
that its membership amounts TO l,50o-
900.
The objects Of the society are said to
be two-fold. In the first place the boys
are bound together to propagate athe-
Ism. No brother OF the coast must
genufiect before the altar; he must
never confess unless practically
dragged TO the confessional, and even
then he must treat the ceremony with
ridicule; he must never communicate
unless under parental compusion; and
he must not only not fast, but he must
starve himself at the family dlnnI-
table, only TO stun himself with for
hidden meat at some convenient res
taurant. He must do all in his power
TO dlssoclate himself from the church.
And to prove how thoroughly the
brethren of the coast fulfil their VOWS.
II can be mentioned that at recent
examination In which one hundred OF
the brethren took part, they one and
all, in reply to "A question asking them
to show the truth Of Christ's miracles.
answered that they were an inventioI
an absurd fairy talel
Another object Is mutual protection
against the so-called tyranny OF
teachers, and others.
The chief object. however, IL the dis.
semInation Of inhdel views. And that,
We take II, is the effect OF a great many
secret societies, even II the objec, pro.
fessedly is quite different, For when
people get interested In the doing OF
societies. they are nearly always bound
to become more or less negleotful OF
their church duties. and faith canno,
live long, when the ground In which II
should grow is neglected.
1t is remarkable that such society
as the Brothers of the Coast should
be established among boys, but the fac,
is one Of the signs of the times, which
| can be studied with profit
