i 1§ | 3 i it i B L e e THE MORAL OF IT. ‘We may moralize as much as we please about but the fact is, that we don’t like ‘it while it and that we want to get rid of it as soon as we can. Whether caused by rheumatism, gout, disordered liver, weak fierves, irregular kidneys, bad blood, or anything else that is just the reverse of what it should be, the sooner it is out of the system the happier we are. -Whether pain is the result of imprudence or of acci- dent, or is sent as a punishment for our sins, may be a nice question for the philosophers to argue; but peo- ple who are suffering want first to be rid of the pain, after which those who are fond of argument may argue the matter to their hearts’ content. Above all theory, argument, and philosophy, comes the ({’clighlful fact that BROWN's IRON BITTERS drives pain away. Sufferers run no risk in trying this medicine, the only com- pound containing iron which carries no mischief with it. Those who have used it will tell you so; and you can '.? for yourself by buying a bottle of the nearest druggist. 7 DR. FELIX LE BRUN'S G G PREVENTIVE AND CURE, FOR EITHER SEX.

He was received with per- sistent howls and a rush was made for the platform.

A correspondent at Cairo says: The disaster to Baker Pasha's army caused nothing like the sorrow which prevails among Englishmen here over the massa- cro at Sinkat. There is a universal feel- ing of humiliation and shame that the gallant men of Sinkat were killed mostly within sight of a British ship. Wolseley telegraphed Stephenson, gen- eral commanding the troops in Egypt last evening, to collect a force and relieve Tokar if possible, otherwise to defend the ports, Graham to take supreme com- mand There will be a brigade of five solid battalions in line within a few days. If necessary the garrison at Alexandria will be brought to Cairo, the fleet taking charge of Alexandria. The Tenth hussars homeward bound, were oraered to Suakim, TEWFIK'S FORLORN HOPE, A correspondent at Suakim telegrgphs: At last the heroic garrison at Sinkat has been butchered. For a fortnight they have been eating roots and tree leaves. 1t was a feeble band indeed, which made the sortie to die amidst the rebel horde. Tewfik Bey had hdrangued his men, saying by fighting they might save themselves, by remaining they must die from hunger ina few days. Flight was impossible. The men thus animated with Tewfik Bey’s spirits destroyed the stores, ex- ploded the magazines,filled their pouches to the utmost with cartridees, and issued forth eix hundred strong, agsinst the th, [ rebels. Osman Dignia’s hordes risked the attack. Tewfik Bey und his men fought nobly for a long time. They repulsed every attempt to break their ranks, Fi- nally superior numbers prevailed, and with a tremendous rush the rebels burst through one ofsthe sides of the Egyptian square, A general massacre ensued apd not a soul escaped. According to the Intest reports only four sick men were unable to take part in the sortie at Sinkat and they were spared by the rebels. Be- fore the sortiethe rebel sheiksapproached Sinkat and summoned Tewfik Bey to sur- render, saying his life would be spared, the rebels. During the] sortie women and children followed in the rear of the soldiers, A large number of rebels were killed, The rebels are now massin, in the yicinity f i'uakim, and an attac is believed imminarit, The British or at Cairo tele- graphs thatafter the battle the rebels en- tered Sinkat and put every one to the sword.

Two Interesting Letters Written by Mim to His Father and Brother, The St.Louis Evening Chronicle prints the following letters, the originals of which are held by Mr, B. L.

PATTI IN OLDEN TIMES An Interesting Reminiscence of Her Performance Thirty Years Ago. Trom the Syracuse Standard, Twenty-eight years have increased Patti’s mercantile value about 1,000 per cent. An advertisement in The Stan- dard of September 27, 1805, declares that the management of Paul Julien and Adelina Patti, the two great youthful geniuses of the age, begs leave to anounce to their friends and the public in general that previous to their departure for London, where they have to appear at Her Majesty's theater for a series of concerts, they will give one grand fare- well and positively last concert in this city, this evening, in Wieting hall, on" which oceasion they will be assisted bg Auguste Cockel, the great, most emi- nent and most brilliant pianist, and Bt- tori Baril, the late baritone of the Academy of Music of New York. The management, to afford to everybody the opportunity of hearing these great tal- ents once more, has put the price of ad- mission at fifty cents.” Immediately beneath this advertise- ment' came that of *‘the beautiful fairy star, Miss Maggie Mitchell,” who was playing a two weeks’ engagement at the National theatre, which was located on the site of the Universalist church, in West Genesee street. The local notice stated that “‘the bill for the evening pre- sents the usual attractions, besides a song by Mrs. Homan, and a dance by Miss Wright. The per- formance will open with the classic play of ‘lon,” and closs with the amusing farce of the ‘Maid With the Milking Pail,’ in both of which pieces the fascinating Miss Mitchell will appear. We notice that the managers have al- ready placed several new ' scenes on the stage, which are a great relief to the eyes of the audience- One forest scene evinces skill and taste on the part of the artist. The old daubs were never very excellent and had become rather rusty with use.” The admission was ‘‘fifty cents for boxes and twenty-five cents for the pit.” sl Retroleum V. Nasby, D, R.

Philadelphia Call, Did you ever go intoa barber shop about 8 o'clock in the evening, cross and tired, and wait an hour and a half for your turn, and have a boy ask you twen- ty-seven times if you don’t want your boots blacked, and then take your chair and listen to a discourse, through an odor of gin and garlic,on the weather, and the minstrels, and next year's baseball sea- son, and the presidential candidates, and get cut three times on the chin and once on theneck, and just as the shaving is over have the barber ask you if the razor hurts, and if you don’t want your hair out or shampooed, when it was cut and shampooed only two days before, and have him tell you that your head is full of dandruff, and that you ought to buy a two-dollar bottle of “Tonsorial Elixir” that will take it all out with four applica- tioas, and be asked if you want powder or bay rum or hair oil, and have him spend fifteen minutes trying to stop the tlow of bloogdwieh‘ litt-l:}l patches of shay- ingpaperandalum from the gaping wounds that his razor has left, and finally, when you escape from him, siun have the boy ask you, with tears in his eyes, if you don't want your boots blacked, and have him brush your coat and hat in a please- mister-give-me a-nickel-I am-starving-to death sort of way, and when you get out- side in therain without an umbralla, have a dog bite you in the leg because you ac cidently stepped upon him, and have a newshoy dance in front of you for two blocks, all the time imploring you to buy evening paper, and then try and board treet car at full speed and miss your footing and fall in the mud and slush, and have somebody step on your hat and spoil it, and have a big, angry policoman come around the corner {uudilhing his club and ask ‘‘What's this row all about!" and have him seize you by the coat collar and drag you off to the station house, where you are fined $10 and costs for being drunk ‘and disorderly, and not allowed to say » word under threat of being sent to jail for three months, and after reaching home long past midnight, a shapeless mass of humanity, have your wife look at you and the clock alternately, and call you “Sir” and say something about “mother” and *‘home,” and “‘fixst in- stinets of a gentleman,” and haye her wind up the clock with all the noise pos- sible, and flounce into bed, and turn her face to the wall, and cry, and not listen 'l;n. a ':.grd of ex) )lnntiun;did you ev.; ve this sort of thing happen to you!

PETERSBURG, fta Appesrance ms Approachedl by Water—Some of its Most Note. atures—An Evening in the Greek Church ~The Hermitage—The Winter Palace, The approach to St. Potersburg by water is far more beautiful than by land. The country around is flat, and the city sits upon the sea, as it were, Who would not prefer to approach Aphrodite upon her native element, rather than look upoh her and her gorgeous train from the shore! Theophile Gautier's de- scription of this acene is 8o true and vivid, although of an evening in January, por- haps, that it may well be copied here: ““In the distance, emerged slowly between the milky water and the opaline sky, en- circlgd by its mural crown, crenellated with® turrets, the superb silhouette of St. Potersburg, whose tints of amethyst drew a line of demarkation between thoso two pale immensities of sen and sky. Gold scintillated in scales and in needles upon the diadem, the richest, the most beautiful, that ever city wore upon its brow. Soon St. Isaacs outlined be- twoen its four bell towers its cupola of gold, like o tara; the admiralty darted high in air its glittering arrow; the church of St. Michael the Archangel rounded its domes of Muscovite curve; that of the Horse Guard lifted sharp pyramids, their tips adorned with crosses, and a crowd of more remote church towers gleamed with their metallic lus- tor. Nothing exists more splendid than was that golgun city upon that horizon of silver, when the evening had all the white radiance of the dawn.” Immediately on our arrival, hearing that it was the eve of a great festival in the Groek church, we hastened to St. Isaac’s, where a splendid service was going on. On entering this yrand edifice, where the glitter of thousa nds of candles covered the retreating sunlight that played softly in the almost fathomless depths of the dome, we stood spellbound amid the prostrate forms all about us, and we heard the “beautiful in song.” Beneath tho great dome stood a greup of priests, with long black hair, covered with the cap peculiar to_their office, and clad in rich garments of white and gold; on either side, flanked by that boy-choir, worthy of its world renown, the body of this temple filled with thousands of wor- shipers, and here and there groups of sis- ters and monks, whose pale faces made a fitting frame for this sumptous and splen- did picture, As the services continued, the priests and their surreunding throng moved slowly toward the iconstace, that ‘wall of sacred pictures set in gold,” through the central door of which, in the mysterious darkness beyond, is_seen the colossal Christ forming the window at the back of the sanctuary, where, in pur- ple and wold, with the right hand raised in benediction, the power of art seems to have almost surpassed itself. We turned; fainter and more etherial sounded the “Giospodi pomilui,”— The Lord have mercy."” On a clear, warm, August day—Sun- day,—hearing that the animal ‘‘officers’ races” were to come off at Krasnoe Selo, the summer camp of the [mperial guards, numbering eighty thousand men, we took boat to Peterhof and drove thence to the camp, some sixteen miles from St. Petersburg. The camp is six to ten miles in vxtent, o rolling country with here and there plains of considerable ex- tent. The hour set for the races was 4 p. m., but on reaching the place we were informed the czar would not arrive un- til 6 o’clock. For two hours companies of infantry, without arms, issued from the different camps and slowly gathered around and about the central chalet which stood between the two stands. Officers of cavalry superbly mounted, representing every point of the Russian dominions, came upon the scene by twos and threes. The Circassian, the Mon- gol, the Tartar, and the Cossack, ‘‘a crowd of uniforms embroidered with gold, epaulettes starred with diamonds, rows of decorations, whose enamel and precious stones form centers of fashing light.” Several bands took up their sta- tions opposite the chalet which the czar was to occupy. When a few minutes be- fore 6 o’clock his majesty appeared with the czarina and some of their children, together with the grand dukes and the various members of the imperial house- hold, was it by accident or de- wmgn that the chalet was completely surrounded by from five to ten thousand men, mounted and unmounted? The ozar, although he sat at the front of the balcony-opening of his chalet during the time of the actual racing, moved away at once when the winning horso passed the line, withdrawing to the salon within, to reappear again when the next race was called, Possibly this nervous action on hus part was owing to the fact, heard by us on the day following, that a man and woman had been arrested recently on the grounds of Zthe] palace of Poterhiof (be- cause of acting suspiciously), where the emperor was accustomed to show himself somewhat freely. The sun bad set when the races were over, there had been no serious accident to those engaged in the sport, the prizes had been bestowed by royal hands, the m)emr and the imper- ial household driven off fsom the camp to some palace in the neigh- borhood, and our troika with its three horses abreast, bore us, flying almost, over the miles that lay between the camp and the golden-domed city. ~ The troika is peculiarly a Russian institution, Tma- gine a vehicle eapable of holding foux per- sons, two and two sitting face to face, a driver besides. 'To this three hovses are harnessed; ‘‘the one in the middle, who is in the shaits, has the collar and the wooden arch, the douza, rising above his withers, the two others are attached to the vehicle by an extensive strap, and by another strap, loosely,to the eollar of the thill-horse, « Four reins suftice for the three animals, the two outsiders having only one rein apiece; the thill-horse trots, su‘nping straight ahead; the other two gallop and pace fan-wise.” Al was novel, and, not least, the continwal shout of the driver, ‘‘Beriguiss! Beriguiss!'—*‘Take care,” for in St. Petorsburg it is the business of the pedestrian, including po- licemen, to get out of the way. What shall be said of the sights of St. Potersburg! There is the Hermitage. Of this the language of the guide-hook is c0ld; it enumerates simply, it does not describe, The magnificence and riahness of this collection words can but faintly tray. This maseum or colection, ounded by Catherine the Great, now covers a parallelogram, 5156 fees by 375 feet, with open courts joining the winter palace, and challenges direct somparison with the Loavre and the Vatican, Not only is this collection of priceless value, but the building itself, its halls and cor- ridors, are a fit setting for the gems with- in_ 1o the lover of northern antiquities and the rare and beautiful in painting and soulpture, this Hermitage will repay a journey here of five thousand miles. ‘There is the winter palace, and what thoughts doos this give rise to. ~ Withm | this is the Romanofiportrait gallery, where one #oes the tablet upon which are the rules that Catherine enforced at her con- versations. These are quaint, and here is the tradition of them: 1. Leave your rank outside, as well as your hat, and especially your sword, 2, Leave your right of procedence, your pride, and any similar feeling out- side the door., 3. Be gay, but do not spoil anything; do not break or gnaw anything. 4. Sit, stand, walk as you will, with- out reference to anybody. 5. Talk moderately, and not very lond 80 a8 now to make the ears and heads of others ache, 6. Argue without anger and without excitement, 7. Noeither sigh nor yawn, nor make anyhody dull or heavy. 8. In all innecent games, ors proposes, Tet all join, O Bat wuat.ver i8 sweet and savory, but drink with moderation, so that each may find his legs on leaving the room. 10. Tell no tales out of school; what- ever goes in at one ear must g out at the other before Jeaving the room. A transgressor against these rules shall, on the testimony of the witness, for every offense drink a glass of cold water, not_excepting the ladies, and, further, read the page of the ‘‘Telamachiade’” aloud. Whoever breaks any three of these rules during the same evening shall committ six lines of the ‘‘Telemachiade” to memory. And whoever offends against fluly tenth rule shall not again be admit- ted. Moscow, ‘‘the real Russian capital, tha great Muscovite city,” is but a night's ride by il from St. Petersburg. The Kremlin and its wealth of magnificence offers strong temptations to the traveler, but the autumnal sun reminds him if he would see the beautiful fiords and mighvy granite hills of Norway he must turn his steps hitherward. whatever i o A Good Investment. One of our prommnent business men said to us the other day: *‘In the spring my wife got all run down and could not eat anything; passing your store 1 saw a pile of Hood’s Sarsaparilla in the window, and I got a bottle. After she had taken it a week she had a rousing appetite, and did her everything. She took three bot- tles, and it was the best three dollars T ever invested.” C. L.

The disease, bronchial trouble, has been en- tirely broken, and he is rapidly gaining his strength. Ho was seen by your cor- respondent and interviewed upon the questions which are before the public in regard to himseli. He said he was ready for trial at any time. He will appear 'n Sam- time will be set the day for hearing. He expects a change of venue to be granted. He was not very loud in his censure of the prejudice which he claims exists in this county, but deems it ample for him to be granted a new trial. He was asked the question, “What was ex-Gov, Johnson’s reply to your let- ter to him?”’ “He will be one of my counsel,” was the reply, “‘and will be on hand when the trial begins in earnest.” Will John T. Glover, of St. Louis, as- sist in the defense?” *‘He will if he can arrange his business matters.” He was then interrogated upon the question of passes being granted to his mother by the Haunibal & St. Joe rail- road. “Mr. James,” said the reporter, *‘did your mother get the pass which an employe of Hannibal & St. Joe told a Globe-Democrat reporter had been gran- ed her by Manager John B. Carson?” ““I don’t know,”he answered. ‘‘My mother has had a_pass on that road since the fime she lost her arm and my brother was killed.” ¢‘Manager Carson is said to have sent your mother the pass to gain the favor of vour brother Jesse and his gang, and that is why the Hanuibal & St. Joe road was never robbed.” James had noanswer to make, but said: “A special train sent out from Kansas City on that road carried the posse that did the dire work at niy mother’s house, and yet noone knew who: the posse was. 1 tell your sir,a railrond don't send out a special train un- less they know why it goes and why and who goes on it. They could have found out who they were, but I have no re- venge for them. ¢ would not hurt them if I knew who they were.” James declined to say anythivg what- ever in reference to the governor refus- ing to pardon Dick Liddell, He had walked into town from his father-in-law’s, Col. Ralston’s, and, after spending the day conferving with Judge Stover, he walked -home again, two miles and a half. e e [ Eating Cancer.
