ly time for awhile, as the music of
their Spencers lulled to sleep many of the
rebels, and they fell from their horses. 1t
was life or death, prison or liberty, and
as the Sth Ind. Cav. boys are great lovers
of life and liberty, they made determined
charge, cutting their way out, and at the
main road, Joined by a portion of the LIST
battalion, went to the assistance of the Sd
battalion, which was holly engaged with a
superior force, who came near capturing
them, and Gen. Fitzpatrick. Scarcely had
these events happened when we, at the
barricade, Cos. A and B, from the whist
ling balls about our ears, learned that the
rebels were again between us and the rest
of the command. Our fighting blood was
now at fever heat, and turning, we
charged, shooting and cutting as we went
through. 1t seemed there was no end of
JOhnnies on this occasion, for no matter
how many went down it seemed that two
took each ones place. We again formed
our line and held them in check until the
regiment was formed, and we fell back in
order, with slight loss, considering what
We had passed through, receiving the
highest commendatiOn for our action on
this occasion.
There was considerable excitement in
the brigade, as says Gen. Fitzpatrick: "An
Aid rode up, with excited looks and sweat
falling in drops from himself and horse
announced that Gen. Fitzpatrick and the
9Th Ind. Cav. had been cut off and cap
tured." This news ran through the COM
mand like wild fire." and Col. Murray
halted his brigade, saying 1--WE will fight
Wheeler now and here" formed his boys
in line of battle, and began barricading,
when Gen. Fitzpatrick came along, saying
they were not yet captured, but as Gen.
Wheeler wanted fight he should have it,
ordering the column to resume the march.
This is the first WaynesborO engage
ment; then follows Buck Head, Reynolds
Plantation, Miller's Grove and Second
Waynesboro. Should like to hear some
of the other boys that were there give
their account of the affair.-LEROY A.

The Best Remedy for Group.

[From the Atchison, Kan, Daily Globe.]
This is the season when the woman
who known the best remedies for Group
is in demand in every neighborhood.
One of the most terrible things in the
world is to be awakened in the middle of
the night by a whoop from one of the
children. The Group remedies are almost
as sure TO be lost, in case OF Group, as h
revolver is sure to be lost in case OF
burglars. There used to be an old.fash-
toned remedy for Group, known as hive
syrup and tolu, but some modern mothers
say that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
is better, and does not cost so much. 1t
causes the patient to "throw up the
phlegm" quicker, and gives relief in a
shorter time. Give this remedy as soon
as the croupy cough appears and it will
prevent the attack. 1t never fails and is
pleasant and safe to take. For sale by

&c, Buffers snort speech.

Francis E. Leupp in the Century says
that probably the shortest speech ever
delivered in congress was made by
Ben Butler of Massachusetts. An Ohio
member had fallen afoul of him one
day and poured upon him a torrent Of
abuse which would have excited gen.
eral indignation but for an uncon-
sciously ridiculous gesture with which
the orator accompanied almost every
alternate sentence. This tempered the
disgust Of his hearers with mirth. He
would raise his arms just as high above
his head as possible and then wiring
his hands as if he were making de-
lirious attempt to wiring them off. But
Ter sat through the speech with his
eyes half closed, not moving a muscle.
He rose when his assailant finished and
stood calmly in the aisle. After per-
haps a minute of silence he began,
"Mr. Speaker"' Another impressive
pause, and expectancy reached nearly
the bursting point. Suddenly raising
his arms, Butler reproduced exactly
the awful gesture of the Ohio congress
man. Then his arms fell to his sides,
and for another minute he stood 81
lent. THAT is all, Mr.. Speaker" he
said finally. 81 just wanted to an
swer the gentleman from Ohio"

History and Biography.

The whole value Of history, Of bieg-
raDhy. is to increase my self trust py
demonstrating What man can be and
do. This is the moral Of the Plutarchs,
the CudWorthS. the TennHmanns. who
give Us tie story OF men or Of opinions.
Any history of philosophy fortifies my
faith by showing me that what high
dogmas l had supposed were the rare
and late fruit of cumulative culture,
and only now possible 10 some recent
Kant or f'ichte, were the prompt I'm
provisations of the earliest inQuirers;
of Parmenides, Heraclitus and Ken
ophanes.
In view of these students the soul
seems to whisper: There is better
way than this indolent learning of an
other Leave me alone. Do not teach
me out of Leibnitz or Schelling, and l
shall find it all out myself
Still more do we owe to biography
the fertilization of our hope. If you
would know the power of character,
see how much you would impoverish
the world if you could take clean out
of history the lives of Milton, Shake
speare and Plato, these three, and
cause them not to be. See you not how
much less the power of man would be I

There is a south side lady who owns
a Gordon setter which she believes is
endowed with almost human intelli-
gence, says the Chicago. News. This is
lot hastily formed nor unfounded
opinion, but has been developed by
years of experience. Here is one OF
the many incidents from which has
sprung her faith in her dog:
One Sunday, having finished her din
ner, the lady went into the drawing
room to read the paper. On a rug near
the window the setter was basking
drowsily in the sunshine. The lady's
two sons were still in the dining room
finishing the repast, and the mother
overheard something said about bones.
Now, the good lady has mortal dread
that her beautiful dog will choke to
death on a bone some day, SO, raising
her voice, she called out, Boys, don't
give Dan any chicken bones"
spelling these two words so the dogs
attention would not be attracted. "Im
afraid he will choke"
As she spelled chicken" the dog
raised his head; at "bones" he got up,
walked into the dining room and look
ed at the bones the boys were picking.

REFLECTIONS.

A wife often permits her affection to
blind her reason.
Regard for petty things often viii
dwarf a mans ambition.
A womans love can become annoy,
ing as we'll as burdenseme.
Marriage based ON honest affection
will withstand the ravages Of time.
When woman gives way to anger
she begs her own pardon with tears.
Many women find happiness only
when attending to the affairs of others
Confidence is not easily gained where
exaggerated love of self is found tc
exist.
To decide between love and duty has
caused hours Of worry to men as vel
as to women.
The man with a vice wonders why
SO many persons think it their duty t.
make public the fact.
Man often shows the hard side of hi'
disposition to mark more strongly the
