Among the ini|ortant incidents ol

to the' rebel capital, held by the I'nion
troops. LeeV army was confronted
and kept in io»itioii by the army of
the Potomac, on the banks of the
Kapiilan. The t'nion troop* on the
peninsula alove Fortress Monroe were
comnninded bv Maijor-tieiicral J.
Wistar, -oldier of expcrienct- and
distinguished rejiutatloii.
Oil the 13th of October. l.Htfct, Lieut
W. W. Disonway, I'rovoht Marshall of
Williamsburg, a handsome young offi
cer o
fir rent promise, and universally
beloved in his regiment, was shot dead
by a soldier of the Provost Ouard,
named II vlc, who lie was in the act
of arresting for disorderly conduct.
Itoyle was seized, tried, and sentenc
ed to death. He was con
(I tied in Fort
Magrudcr, an earth-work below Wil
liamsburg, awaiting his execution.
At this jKiint there were almost dai
ly arrivals of refugees, deserters, and
escaped t'nion prisoners from Rich
mond, sixty mil^ distant. Their re
ports fully agreed as to the defenceless
condition of that city. The only
troops there were a few ineflicient
home guards." The country above
Williamsburg was free from rebel
scouts, and it was believed that, with a
sudden dash the rebel capital could lie
occupied, the I'nion prisoners in I.ihhy
prison and Castle Thunder liberated—
the president of the Southern Confed
eracy captured—the seige guns spiked
und the railroad bridge across the
Janus river destroyed. Accordingly
an expedition was secretly planned to
accomplish these objects, llefore, how
ever, the slightest movement was
made, Gen. Wistar sent a eon pi# of
trusty scouts "Major Howard," and
Sergeant riunkctt, to learn for a cer
tainty the enemy's exact condition.
I'hev succeeded iu entering Hichinond
md transmitting to the I'.iion com
mander the most positive intelligence
the Mtuaiioii of atiairs there. Their
reporls fully confirmed the statements
already in his possession.
Vbout two weeks after the depart
ure of the scouts, regiments of infantiy
and cavalry began to arrive at York
town and encamped iu the woods
along the road leading to Williams
burg. (Jen. Wistai's command was
increased to a full brigade of infantry,
and lour regiments of cavalry, com
prising the Fifth and F.leventh Penn

Bottoms Bridge 011 the Chickahom
iny, thirteen mile* from Richmond,
was reached the same night, and here
a halt was called. The opposite bank
of the river was crowned with an ex
tensive line of earthworks erected du
ring MoCiellau's camjtaign, and while
Wistai's troo]« were awaiting the
coming of the dawn, a long line of
shadowy tlgures tiled down the road
on I he opposite side of the bridge and
occupied the entrenchments. Their
character wan soon made known by a
volley of artillery aud musketry. At
daylight our forces marched down to
the bridge for the purjKMe of develojn

speedily ascertained With the loss of
several killed and wounded. All hojes

The Good Fight.
jrrespondent of the Davenport Gasette
KIMTMH ot Tiik UAZKTTE:—Tn Mis
souri the reform i under grand head
way, ItKKi having signed the tem
perance pledge lately at Sedalia, where
the work has taken on the character
ol a religious revival. Eievea gospel
teni|terance meetings a week art1
now held in nigleeted portions of
Chicago by the Y. M. C. A. Iu Indi
ana one of tho Pittsburg reformed
men, Dr. Conway, a practising phy
sician, is working with great success.
One-fifth of the whole people of New
liumpshire, aud one-third of the
voters have signet! the pledge. The
"Old Granite State" will catch up
with Maine soon, at this rate! For
many a year the White Mountaineers
have considered their neighbors over
the eastern border a trifle fanatical,
and engaged in a wild goose chase
after total abstinence as a |opu!ar
thing. No)m

Mr. Murphy
begins operations in New York city
in September. The arrests of unli
censed dealers are going on there and
the li'itior men ol all grades are alarm
ed and furious, looking round for
every sort of dodge to hold only till
they can bribe the next New York
legislature to change the law. A recent
table re|Hirt shows that "froiu SO to
'.»!) per cent of the criminals iu New
iMigliiud connect their cause of crime
to intemperance,'' and the proportion
is doubtless larger in New York. The
police rejmrt 7,!HM places where liquor
is sold, -,0011 of these without license.
It is the "Society for tho Prevention
of Crime" illev. Ir. Crosby's,) that
is crowding them,now,not thel'rohib
tionists, and they are applying for
license*. Army correspondents in the
Fast write a fact that may have to do
with the Turkish victories. At
Shumla, Rutsehuk, and Varna the
street* are quiet, all Turkish soldiers
being perfectly sober in the Russian
camps drunkenness prevails and
staggering men march with every
company. Drunkenness is the nation
al vice ofthe Russiansas of IhcScotch,
aud may be their military ruin. Does
anybody notice that during the riots
in this country the city authorities in
many cities closed the liquor shop*
and established temporary prohibi
tion? Thai tells the story of tiie rela
tion of "the trade'' to crime, and
peril from crime to property and jK»p
ular rights, and the public peace. On
Iheother hand Boston grants 1:2,'Mi
liquor licenses, and in Washington
City hard times help the liquor trade.
Men who cannot find work take to
drinking, (having so much more mon
ey, of course, to throw away!
i
and not
a saloon has had to close while places
that, failed iu other busluss have been
turned into liquor shops. Moody and
Sail key eonnot go to the National
Capital a day too soon. A friend of
mine long a resident there says of it:
"Within my memory there never
was a time when excessive indulgence
in intoxicating drink was as common
as now."
Tlu Maine Republican Convention
gave an uncertain sound. It said
"Temjierance among the people may
lie greatly promoted by wise prohibi
tory legislation, and it is a source of
congratulation that the principle of
prohibition, always upheld by the
Republicans, is now concurred in by
so large a majority of the people, tin
nufriit* for mi n fat year* havinrj
declined to voiitest it it
A lesson there's for Iowa Republi
cans. The only way for Republicans
to destroy the license-capital of the
Democrats is to stand by prohibition
till it is a well nigh success, as it is in
Maine, i. v., to do exactly the con
trary to the advice of weak-hacked
Republicans, and dou't-prohihit
Republicans and license Republicans.
The whole crowd hasu't a thimble
full of foresight. The only way, on
the other hand, for Iowa Republi
cans to make capital for the Democ
racy is to le shakey and inconsistent
on this subject. When the Maine Re
publicans had passed that strong
declaration, they put an out-an-out
Prohibitionist, Gov. Connor, on it by
acciamaiton as candidate for Governor.
Thai.s the way to cony nor, and hold
the State steadily. And Iowa Re
publican* will fare the same way
when tlicy have back-bone enough to
nominate for chief magistrate such a
miuias Hiram Price. Any other i-ouree
will steadily weaken them. More
over, in the Maine Democratic con
vention an anti-Prohibition resolu
tion was voted down! "There arc
17,300 reform men in Maim', of whom
three-fourths are iJemocrats," said
one speaker. [The Rcpublicjins were
reformed a good many years ago]
\bouL the sheriffs going into houses
to seize illegal liijuors he told his bro
ther Deuiijcrats, "You needn't have
atijr there for him to seize and all the
disagreeable tilings spoke n of will be
avoided." The
Christiuii Mirror ot
Portland says: "A drunken man is
one of the rarest sight* obtruded upon
public view in Maine. The liquor
traffle here, save as the other crimes
are commited, In extremest secrecy,
is annihilated. There is not a
known barkeeper or saloon pro
prietor, who sells intoxicating
drinks, in the commonwealth. And
tids is not a casual state of things
which may not last a week. It is per
manent. It is the settled policy of all
political parties. Even the Democrat
ic State Convention, held in this city
the present week, rejected amid loud
cheers, a resolution favoring license,
aud declared itself in favor of legisla
tion which shall be in accord with our
bill of rights and best promote temper
ance."
God save the commonwealth of
Maine!

•Hull's Falsehood and Brutality.
There are but few, if any, in Iowa
who are not more or less familiar with
John P. Irish's unscrupuiousness and
insensibility to the truth. This base
quality in the man has fre-h illustra
tion in his -jieech, delivered somo
where, it is supposed, though no one
could gue^s where from its partial
publication in the
Jit rtiUl
of this city
yesterday. He says that "tvery mur
derer that will swing from a scaffold
dangles there to expiate crimes done
by the Republican party." Isn't that
the utterance of a statesman of a tit
iwsaw.ti«rm«eeeeftiw fMMMt
Iowa? The fellow ought to be
eked for the simples, and !ii* h»d
*ed in ice. Is there a sensible
locrat iu Iowa who does not drop

The Cost of Dying.
The population of the world at the
eloseof the year 1.S70 is estimated
l,4_i.!)l, ,000. Admitting that the
average duration of human life is 33
years, the deaths will lie 43,4.!5,000
year. According to the most reiiutile
Aita. It casts about an average of $IM
I© defray the expenses of a Christian
fiineral. If, therefore, all the natione
of the earth were Christians, the fune
ral bi I Is would amount to
00 i annually. The question that will
at an early day confront the econo
mists will be, "Cannot some way be
devised to die chcaper?" Evidently it
costs to much to get decently under
the sod—too much for rosewood
coffltis, plumed hearses, monumental
irble, fashionable cemetery lots andl
mourning costumes. Fashion is trio
supreme at funerals. The fickle god
dess is too potential in dictating the
tit aud fabric of the shroud and wind
ing sheet and the style of silver plate*
I nails. Mourning goods arc man
ufactured to order and graded fir*t,
•ond and third nvery sigh has it*
peculiar tint untill at last the world
observes that the days of sadness are
past and the dear dejmrtei are forgot-
The poor can hardly afford to
die, a rude country coffin no longer
answers the purpose. The style of a
burial case is a matter of decpcoucc rn,
and in many cases the living are rob
bed of the absolute necessaries of life
that the dead may have a fashionable
funeral. Speculation iu. cemetery lots
is now a feature in real estate transac
tions, and there are aristocratic
enues in tho cities *of the dead as
in the cities of the living. Pride erects

Where and How Cheap Clyan
are Made,
The allowing is from the Mew
Yoik
Tri/ium:
The room was low
and long, with four windows on the
north side. Near one of these win
dows sat a woman about 40 years old,
bunching cigars from a pile of strip
pings close by. At another window
weretwomen finishing the cigars,
and in the further part ofthe room
were two beds am) a table with dishes
on it. While the pretended dealer
was talking with one of the men iu
gard to the cheapness •with which
was isissible to manufacture cigar*,
the door ojH'iied ami a ragged little
girl entered with n dirty canvas bag
on her arm, the contents of which she
mpticd into a barrel near the door.
She then set down and commenced to
strip tobacco from the pile before men
tioned. The mau who did the talking
was very loquacious, and stated that
he could pure
base cigars for about ^7
a thousand. He said that the wrajt
pcrs used were of Western tobacco,
while tho fillings were sometimes of a
'much finer quality." To illustrate
this latter assertion lie showed the
contents of the barrel to which the
girl had contributed. It was half tilled
with a mass of what might l»e called
garbage, culled from the streets, and
consisting of scraps of brown jianer,
cabbage leaves and cigar stumps, some
of which were stumps of Havana
igars. The manufacturer then took
his customer into au other room open
ing from tho stairway, where there
was a kettle iu a brick (1 rep luce and a
plank yn which were spread out the
gleanings from the barrel, assorted
and separated to dry. He showed
how the burnt ends of the stumps
were cut otl'and the remainder unroll
ed how dried cabbage leaves boiled
with tobacco stems aud sumach leaves,
could be converted into "very fine to
bacco," and closed his explanations
by extolling the virtues of the tonka
beau, valerian and ammonia as flavor
ing extracts. The reporter said he
thought he could make some arrange
ments with him iu a few days and
then withdrew to continue his re
searches iu cigar manufacture.
