It is too late now to get around either flank of the army in his front or to attack either of them with a probability of success, so a jutting point of the Cemetery ridge was selected, where there was a slight depression over which aroad runs. The southern wedge must be driven in and through the Federal left center there. SOME ONE BLUNDERED AT GETTYSBURG. “If the Federal army could be cut in two, and the separate wings overwhelmed in detail, the battle would be decisive. and the victorious army might march toa point between Balti- one who never tires, m even though they must have known that “Some one had blundered? “Leave Thermopylw, Waterloo, and Bala- Saturday's game proved a surprise to most folks, being a defeat for the home club by the score of 3to 1. It was generally expected that the Senators would win, but the fates decreed otherwise, and the Statesmen themselves gave the fates a good boost by their total inability to bat when batting was badly needed, and by their usually weird base-running. Beam and Fields, and Healy and Ebright were the batteries, The young Pittsburg twirler was very wild, giving nme men bases on balls; but the great support given to him by Fields was of immense benefit when the bases were occu- pied, The Senators kept on retiring in order without making a hit for several innings, while the visitors were hitting hard.

Sweeny | ¥25 Splendid conception, Napoleonic in audacity, and worthy of the genius of the old masters of war. “The south was within a stone's throw of peace at Gettysburg,’ says a writer. This battle tnrned the military tide, for it was practically lost to the confederate troops. The waters of southern success had reached their high-water mark, and from that time continued to ebb until lost in the sea of eternity. Gens. Longstreet, A. P. Hill and Ewell were the corps commanders at Gettys- burg. To the first-named was committed the assault. Col. Taylor. Gen, Lee’s adjutant-gen- eral, as well as Colonels Venable and Long, of the same staff, are on record assaying that they knew it was planned by Lee for Longstreet to pmsl shed ampere corps, to be supported by lf of A. P. Hill’s corps, that being the next in e to his left, and Hil, in his official report, that he was ordered to send one-half of his corps as a “SUPPORT TO LONGSTREET'S CoRPS™ in such assault. It was the army-commander’s intention to leave to the chief of his first corps the tactical formation for attack, but whether the advance was a platoog, then a company, then a regiment, to be followed by brigades and divisions, it was clearly his purpose that the whole corps should support their advance guard, reinforced by half of the next corps— aye, if necessary, with the whole army, He did not specify by name certain divisions to assault. Such matters of detail are generally left to subordinate commanders. As the column of attack was organized, there was no more chance of writing success upon its brave banners than that the three hundred Spartans could kill Persians by the million, or six hundred horse- men ride over the ramparts of Sebastopol, or the wings of the French eagles of the Old Guard of Napoleon could victoriously flap over the whole army of Wellington, amine the formation of the charging column. Two brigades of Pickett’s division—Kemper's and Garnett’s—with Heth’s division, under Petti- and Ebright made singles and Morrill sacri- ficed. Healy flied out ona line to Maul, and Sweeny tried to score with very bad success, being thrown out at the plate by a beautiful | piece of work. Then again in the sixth there was another unaccepted chance to do some- thing. Hoy went to first on balls, to second on Wilmot’s hit, and third on Shoch’s force-out of Wilmot, where he remained while Myers and Wise went out with ease. But the visitors did better in this inning. Maul went to first on four balls and jumped to second when Ebright let a ball pass him. Dunlap rapped the sphere hard for a single and Maul scored. The sev- enth saved the home club from a white-wash. Sweeny hit for a single and stole second. and then Ebright made a two-bagger, on which Sweeny scored the only senatorial run. Al- though there was no one ont, Ebright contin- ued to ornament second through the rest of the inning. In Pittsburg’s half, Fields perforated the atmosphere with the ball and reached third on the hit, and then Sunday's single scorea him. This was the extent of the run-getting, and when game was called Washihgton had made 5 hits and lerror, and Pittsburg 8 hits and 2 errors. OTHER GAMES. Boston won from Indianapolis, 8 to 4. Clark- son and Ganzel and Boyle and Myers were the batteries. The Beaneaters made 16 hits and 2 errors and the Hoosiers 13 hits and 5 errors. Cleveland scored in the tenth and won from Philadelphia, 4 to 3. The batteries were O'Brien and Zimmer and Buffinton and Clements. The Phillies made 8 hits and 5 errors and the in- fants 6 hits and 5 errors. New York lost to Chicago, 9 to 8, through frightful field work. Keefe and Ewing and Krock and Flint were the batteries.

Henry Smith, for eleven years librarian of the National Soldiers’ home in this District, and the oldest soldier of the United States army, died Saturday afternoon, in Brooklyn, at the residence of his daughter, Mrs. W. E. Watson. Capt. Smith, as he was universally calle d, al- though his rank in the army was that of first *ergeant attached to the ordnance staff, entered the army in 1837. He had been educated for the trade of a printer in Charleston, 8. C., his birthplace; but at the age of twenty-four the idea of army life attracted him, and he enlisted and served during the Seminole war in Florida. He was for years commander of the famous Fort Jackson lew Orleans, and at the out- break of the war of the rebellion was obliged to surrender it to the confederate forces. Dur- ing the war Capt. Smith was assigned to duty in his department at Springfield armory for a fime, but was with General Butler when the latter retook New Orleans and was of great service to the ii familiarity with the country. at the close of the war, and was the position in the which he has held be soon after gi library of the Soldiers’ so long. —___ THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D.
