Of all the campalgna during the war, nome will last longer in history than the operations of General Phil Sheridan in the Shenandoan and the battle of Winchester, which was a part of it. The Shenandoah valley was the granary of the south, says the Pittsburg Press, and General Sheridan was selected by General Grant to drive the confe As events showed, the selection one, for Sheridan, of all the officers in the Army of the Potomac, was best fitted to carry out a dashing, aggresive campaign against such accomplished cavalry com- manders as Jubal A. Barly and Fitzhugh Lee, who were ihe leaders of the confederate forces in the valley. Under Sheridan’s com- mand was placed, on August 7, 1864, the Sixth and Nineteenth corps and the infantry and cavalry of West Virginia under Generals Crook and Averill, together with two divisions of cavalry under Generals Torbert and Wil- son, making an effective force of 40,000 men. Sheridan at once asked permission to carry on an aggressive warfare, but General Grant refused, knowing that if Sheridan failed the road would be opencd for the rebels into Pennsylvania_and the north. However, in September, Grant visited General Sheridan and found him so confident of success that he gave way to the repeated demands and argu- ments. Early at this time held the south bank of the Opequan creek, covering Win- chester, while Sheridan’s forees lay in front of Perryville, twenty miles south of Harpe Ferry. “Their positions were such that cither army could have brought on a battle at any time. Leaving Fitzhugh Lee with one division of infantry and_all his cavalry to defend Winchester, Early threw the bulk of his command forward to Bunker Hill, twelve miles from Winchester. He reconncitered as far north as Martinsburg and on the 19th Sheridan advanced from Berryville to W chester, and Wilsen's artillery easily carried the entrenched skirmish line on the west bank of the creek four miles west cf the town. Sheridan had to wait for the Nine- teenth corps, under General Emory, who had followed behind the baggage train of the Sixth corps, thus giving Early time to hurry back to meet the attack. Sheridan formed his line of battle with the Sixth corps on the left, covered by Wilson's cavalry, the Nineteenth corps in the center and the Kan- awha infantry on the right, flanked by a divisicn of cavalry under General Merritt. Averill's cavalry had pressed on the retiring confederates from Bunker Hill and succeeded in closing in on the right of Merritt. The union forces now, with two full divisions of cavalry on their right, extended about four miles, enveloping Winchester from the east and north. The left of Early’s line was intrenched on the hill northwest of the town. He had 8300 infantry, three battalions of artillery and about 3,000 cavalry. Sheridan had about 10,000 cavalry and 25,000 infantry. The infantry fought several hours without gaining any advantage, and Sheridan at 4 oclock in the afternoon ordered a general advance. The confederates broke and fled threugh the town, with the union men hot after them, Night prevented further pur- suit, but Sheridan already had 2,500 pris- oners, five pieces of artillery and nine battle flags as trophies. In the engagement General David A. Russell, who commanded the First division of the Sixth corps, was killed. This ‘engagemetit was called the battle of Opequan by Genral Grant, but the confederates called it the battle of Winchester. Barly did not stop running until he reached Fisher's Hill, thirty miles south. This hill commanded the narrow Strasburg valley be- tween the North mountain and the Shenan- doah valley. On the 22d Sheridan arrived in' front of his position and procceded to at- tack him. Early was driven*back with a loss of half his army. He retreated to tho lower passes of the Blue R'dge, and Sheridan completely destroyed the country south of Strasburg. Early was soon reinforesd by 600 cavalry from Lee's army and a division of infantry, and after making his way north over the country desolated by Sheridan, again took up his position at Fisher's Hill. ' Frequent cav- alry combats took place, but there was no decisive movement until October 10. Sher- idan_was at Washington, and the command devolved on Wright. In the battle the union left and center became demoralized and were driven along the main turnpike and cighteen captured guns wero turned on them. The retreat was not checked until between Mid- dleton and Newton, Wright halted, and with his (roops In a compact line was prepared to resist further attack. This was about 10:30 a.m. Sheridan had arrived from Washington and slept the previous night at Winchester. Hearing the cannon he started on that fa- mous ride, which was immortalized in verse, within twenty-four hours, and arrived in time to turn defeat into victory. Early retreated south and gave up aggres- sive warfare in the valley. MULE STEAK AT VICKSBURG.

It seems as if it were only yesterday that a little boy down there among the New Eng- land hills heard them tell of the siege of Vicksburg. Well, let us see what this local paper has to say of those troubl us times. “We are indebted to Major Gillespie for a steak of confederate berf, alias mule. We have tried it and can a our friends that, if it is rendered necessary, they need have no scruples at eating the meat. It is sweet, savory and tender, and so I'ng as we have a mule left we are satisfied our soldiers will be content to subsist upon it.” “On Dit—That the great Ulysses—the Yankee generalissimo, surnamed Grant— has expressed his intention of dining in Vicksburg on Saturday next and celebrating the Fourth of July by a grand dinner, and ) forth, When asked if he would invite General Jo Johnston to §iin he sald: ‘No; for fear there would be a row at the tabl Ulysses must get into the city before dines in it. The way to cook rabbit is first to cateh the rabbit, ete.” “The Memphis Bulletin at present is in duress and edited by a pink-nosed, slab- sided, toad-eating Yankee, who is a lineal descendant cf Judas Iscariot and a brother germain of the greatest puritanieal, syco- phantic, howling scoundrel unhung, Parson Brownlow." “We lay before our readers in this lssue an occount of Lee's brilliant and successful onslaught upon the abolition bordes, and show e'en from thelr own record how our gallant boys of the cavalry have fleshed their swords to the hilts with their vaunting fres and how each musket of our infantry has told its fatal leaden tale.” “Today Maryland s ours, tomorrow Penn- sylvania will be, and the next day Ohio—now midway, like Mobammed's cofin—will fall Success ‘and glory o our arms!

Besides, Jeft Davis won't do any thing I want him to do. He has 50,000 privates in his kingdom whom 1 should pre fer to exchange rather than your husband.' “‘But my husband is a brave man and a loyal one. ~ I cannot understand what you mean,' was the lady's reply ** ‘Madam,’ responded Lincoln, as he pulled his old quill pen from behind his car, ‘with this pen I can make a colonel in five seconds, but 1 cannot give him regiment.’ Then he added kindly: ‘Go and see General Hatch who has charge of exchanges. he will grant your request I will not fnterfere,’ ““The next person in line,” continued Mr. Bundy, “was a man with some alleged let ters of loyalty from an ex-governor of Mary land. As he handed them to Mr. Lincoln another man caught what had been said and interrupted the conversation to tell Lincoln that the papers must have been forgel, as the Maryland ex-governor had been dead for several vears. The man who had brought in the lstter collapsed, and Lincoln, with that peculiar pity which he could show cven to those who least deserved it, replied quickly: ‘O, never mind, sir; never mind, sir; it Is far more interesting. I would rather get a letter from a dead man than from a live man any day.’ ““The third to have a conversation with' the president was a Wall street broker and ad- venturer, who wanted to be made assistant secretary of the treasury so as to relieve the government, as he declared, by floating an issue of bonds. His plan was to horrow for the government a c:rtain amount of money on a pledge of $100,000,000 of United States bonds, which were to be issued as collateral for the payment of the loan. The plan of the' schemer was very evidently to break the price of the bonds and then get possession of them at a price less than the market, for his margin was very narrow. ir. Lincoin listened patiently until the man was through, and then, as h> eyed him closely, he sald solemnly: My friend, that is a mighty good plan to get bonds for less than they are worth, and very well thought out, but, as he shook his head, ‘don’t ask me to help you in it." " At last it was Mr. Bundy’s turn. He told Mr. Lincoln, by way of introduction, that he had been a Lincoln elector, and that what he wanted to ask of him was simply an act of justice to the falsely imprisoned recruit- ing officer. Mr. Lincoln heard. the story and then said: “My friend, when are you going to start for home?” It was Saturday night, and Mr. Bundy told the president that, as he Qid not travel Sunday, he should not start until early Monday morning. Mr. Lincoln paused a moment and then said: “Well, sir, unless you start for Ohlo at ozee your friend will beat you home. WAR HORSE JIM. W. G. Chafee, the mayor of Aiken, §. C., writes to the New York World that the hors Belle Mosby, whose picture appeared in the World of Sunday, July 15, is not only not the only equine veteran of the war, but not the oldest. Many of the annual visitors to Aiken have seen or heard of old Jim, an old gray horse, better known to some as Wheeler. This old horse 18 owned by Mr. W. T. Williams of Aiken. 014 Jim is fourteen and one-half hands high and weighs 900 pounds when in good health, For thirty years he has done service on the plantation of Mr. Williams, his work being gradually lightened as infirmities Mave crept upon him. At the present time he has tho run of the pasture, and enjoys a well earned rest. For ten years after the war he ‘followed the fox hounds each winter. 0ld Jim came from the mountains of east Tennessee, and took part in the battle of Atlanta. Falling back before Sherman's ad- vance, or hanging on the flank of his army old Jim's coat was daily stained by the red mud from the hills of Georgia. Crossing into South Carolina he bagged through the swamps of the low country, bore his rider gallantly in the fight at Great Salt catcher, in Barnwell county, in South Caro lina. From that point ompanying Pigue's command, under General Wheeler, he brought his master, Lieutenant MeMahon of east Ten nessce, on the left flank of the army. to Aiken. When Sherman's army, passing through Barnwell county, reached the line of the South Carolina railway, General Kilpatrick, with his cavalry, made a bold d ves for the purpose of destroying the cotton mill at Graniteville, five miles west of Aiken, and possibly the confederate powder mills in Au- gusta, Gu., thirteen miles further west of Graniteville, At Aiken they met with the forees of General Wheeler and were repulsed after a sharp skirmish, and retired to the main body of the army. This fight determined the futare fate of old Jim. His rder, Lieutenant MeMuhon, charged with him down a road, now South Boundary avenue, right in front of the house of Mr. Williams. They had bardly passed the front door when both horse and rider fell, the rider with a mortal wound in the breast and old Jim with a ball in bis neck Lieutenant McMahon was taken into the housz of Mr. Willlams, where he died in the dining room a few hours later, The stain of his life blood s still on the pine floor. Jim was condemned as worthle ordered (o be shot, but Mr. Williams begged for his life and nursed him back agan to health and use fulness.

Custom dos not stale the brilliant play, and it bids rto g in its prosperous career until o copyright expires 1 it shall take fta placo among the masterpicces of Amerlean literature. A long stage career is the mora assured because the interest does not depend upon the rendering of any particular part tar actor. Mr. Robson, of course, plays the Lamb, and plays {t with a de- htful deffnces and erispness of touch, which has Increased with long practice, but the play contains other parts with greater dramatic possibilities than this one. It Is highly creditable to Mr. Robson, as a star, that he has never mutilated tho piece to res duce these parts or to incrense the prome inence of his own. Such respect for the ine tegrity of a play is unusual cnough to justify, speclfic mention on Little need bo said of the engagement of Sol Smith Russell, which opens at Boyd's theater an Monday night with that delightful old comedy, male familiar fo latter-day theater-goers by Joseph Jefferson, “The Helr-at-Law.” Mr. Russell fs 0 well known in Omaha and s0 extremely popular that newspaper eulogy Is unuecessary. “The Helr-at-Law,” which will be the bill for the opening night, s a play of eccentrio lines, and these are almost exclusively en- trusted to Pangloss. Dr. Pangloss is a pend- it of the old school, one who innocently and without malice loved to air his learning, to quote from the classies and nail each quo= tation with the name of the author. Mr. Russell's performance in this delights ful old comedy will be watched with eager interest, as it will mark his debut in this city in classic comedy. He has presented the play with gratifying success in a num- ber of othcr places. Although having been identified for over twenty years with ona particular line of work, Mr. IRussell has stepped into an entirely new fleld and demon- sivated a talent for refined English comedy of the classic schocl.

An Invention that May Prove of Valne im Military Operations. | That bicycles: can b used to advantage Im times of war i3 believed by a French inven- tor, Achllle Briere of Rouen, and the United States, by issuing a patent, has gun and bicycle as one likely to prove of valu: in mil= itary service. The mechanism patented i3 for adfusting and controlling a gun supported on the front of a bicycle, and the gun may be operated without bringing it to the shoulder and with- out interfering with the movements or speed of the rider. The invention can be adapted to all ma- chines in general use, and, if desired, the gun can be instantly removed. It is possible to shoot while riding at the high:st speed without bringing the gun to the shoulder, as it is always in the firing position and a simple pressure of the hand (as It to work the brake) is sufficient without touehing the trigger. When the machine is stopped It will be possible to take a very pricise aim. The entire attachment is mounted in front of the frame of the machine upon the pust by means of two arms into which a rod is fixed wh'ch supports the devices necessary for workiug the trigger. The gun Is kept in its place by a clamp made of two parts and hinged. It can be opened whenever desived by swinging the handle, operating as a lever. The barrel of the gun rests upon a support which is pivoted In order to enable the rider to tak> aim, which Is done by ralsing or lowering the screw, which is provided with a nd wheel. r firing the arm it is simply necessary to bring, by the left hand, the lever agalnst th> handle bar, which ciuses the movablo sleeve to be lowered by means of the small rol. The sleeve operates the rods and lever connection, the upper extremity of which ends in a litte fork through which the trigger passes, which is pulled backward by the “action of the comnection, thus firing the gun. When the hand releases the lever the movabie socket and the connections are pushed upward by springs ready for another action, A picce, one extremity of which is held and gu'ded upon the bandle bar, serves simply for direciing the gun. The rod, the I-wer part of which s conn cted with the post | which supports the saddle and which at its forward cod surrounds the trigger-working mechanism with ut interfering wth the workings of the parts, sustains the recol) which ‘i3 lost under the saddle under the weight of the rider, o that the latter does not feel the kast shock when firing the gun while in motion. i e Famous for ¢ Tilghman's Island, a part of Talbot county, | Maryland, and connected with the mainland by @ bridge, is famous in the Chesapeake rogion for its canoes.
