A , Frlghtral War Picture—The iterrois
..et Being •Instantly Killen.”
Count Tolsbo 's "Sevastopol in May,"
in. course of p blication in "Hours at
Home," gives a!very remarkable deserip.
.
non of the cleat& of a man who is instant
ly`killed—as the living say, "instantly
killed"--by apiece of a shell which strikes
him. But to him, the dying Wan, his
death seems a different affair. This surely
( is extremely poiverful writing";
littichailof looked behind him. The
shining point of the bomb, seemed to stand
at the zenith—in that position where it is
impoiiible to tell its direction. But that
lasted only a minute; the bomh came
quicker and quicker, nearer and nearer,
so that you could see the sparks from the
tube and hear tbelatal whistling, and di
rected its course straight at the middle of
the 'oattalion.
. „ "Lie'down," cried a voice.
Miehailof andPraslrnkin lay down on
'the ground. Praskukin,- tig b omb closing
his eyes, heard only how the - fell
heavily somewhere very near on the hard
ground. A second passed—it seemed an
hour—and the bomb did not burst. Pros
kukin began to be afraid that he had done
a cowardly act without any reason, that
4 per/Apikthe bomb had fallen far away,
and he thought he only heard the fuze
fizzing. He opened his eyes and saw
with satisfaction that Michailof lay im
movable on the ground near his legs.
But' hia: 'eyes at that moment met the
snorklinefuse of the Whirling bomb not
a yard'from him. ' A horror—a cold hor
rep excluding all other thoughts and Teel
jags --took,possession of him. He cov
ered his face with his bands. -
Another, .second passed—a second in
. which a whole world of feelinge, hopes,
• thoughts and recollections passed through
his mind.
"Whom will it kill: me or Michailof ?
or both together? It it hits me, where
will it hit? in the head, then It's all over;
Wit. hits my leg, they will cut it off and
I shall ask: - them to do it by all means by
chloroforni—and I can still get through
alive. But perhaPs it will only kill 31i
chailofLthen I can tell how we Were
~, tt'tdking, together, and he was killed and .I
was spattered with blood. No, it's near
er tome-•-it will me ! "
- Then he recollected the twelve rubles
that he owed 3lchailof; he recollected
also another debt at:St. Petersburg that he
ought to have paid long ago;
a gipsy air
that he had sung in the evening came into
his head. The• girl whom he loved ap
peared to his imagination in a cap with
lilac ribbons; he remembered a man
whom helad'insulted years before and
who had never paid it_ back, although at
the same time with these and a thousand
other reniembrances the feeling of his
present circumstances —theexpectation of
death—never for a moment quitted him.
"However, perhaps it will not burst," he
thought, and with despairing decision
wanted to open his eyes: But at that in
.. stout, through the still shut lids, he saw a
red fire, and with a horrible noise some
thing hit him in the middle of the breast.
. "Thank Godl lam only bruised," was
his first thought, and he wanted to feel of
his breast, but his hands seemed to be
bound down, and a weight to keep down
his head. The soldiers'sbone,in his eyes,
and. he.-unconsciously ,' counted them:
"one, two, three soldiers, a that one
whose overcoat has
,Flipped down is an
officer," he thqught. -.Then he saw flash
es, and the thought, ktilikkit are they firing
from, mortars, or .4 4lfflition? Probably
from cannon: They are firing again, and
there are more soldiers, and they all go
past." He almost became afraid that
they would leave him there. He wanted
to cry out that he was wounded, but his
mouth was so dry that his tongue stuck
to his palate and a horrible thirst tormen
ted him. He, felt how wet-he was about
the breast. "Really I fell in some blood
when I lay dowD," bethought, and yield
ing-more and more to the fear that the
soldiers who were going past would leave
him there, he collected all his forces and
tried to cry out: "Take me along," but
instead of that he groaned so horribly
' that it was awful to hear his own voice.
Then some red fires danced in his eyes,
and it seemed to him that the soldiers
were laying stones on.him; the fires dan
ced quicker, the stones which they laid
on him oppressed him more.and more.
Be made an effort , to throw off he stones,
stretched cul,.and then neither astir nor
heard nor thought nor felt. He.was killed
on the spot by a fragment of shell in the
middle of his breast.
Ladies' Societies.
A Philadelphia' husband writes as fol
'lows to the Prue of that city:
My better half has a perfect mania for
secret societies. Monday; with the sick,
Tuesday s with the Daughters of the
Forest ; Wednesday, on committees;
Thursday . , at the sewing circle;
.Friday,
with the Lady Masons; Saturday,. atten
tion to all; Sunday, , l can't 'tell where. -
I come home and find the house empty,
and the children divided around amoog
the neighbors. I get my supper, - walk
around until half-past nine o'clock, find
the tire out and go to bed. Wake up
about' eleven o'clock; - ask what time and
where she has been. Of course she says,
"to the Lodge:"
This may be all right,' but `I can't see
it in that way. Then they have ilairs,
festivals," etc., and attend the "tables."
After they are over, the talk begins, and
hints are thrown out that "Sister Mrs.
did not turn in all her money, See how
she -comes out with her fancy dresses!
Her husb nd can't supply her with them.
I don't ady she hen done so-rim:it it looks
suspicions!"
I would like some one to tell me what
todlo. I * can't stand it mttch longer:

The Scientific Association of Washing
ton-I-I believe that Is the name—pressed
upon General Thomas an invitation to
give the members his story_of the. bat
tle of Nashville. General Thomas, with
great reluctance, const-nted. I k now
that I am doing wrong to give art account
of it, hnt I cannot. resist Thi day is
near when every trait and every anecdote
of this remarkable man will be treasured
up, and the Boswells be thanked for re
cording them.
/With a map hung upon the wall, and
armed with a light rattan, the stalwart
ft?rm of the soldier stood before the little
company as much embarrassed as a girl.
The man who had marshaled great ar- -
mies, and unhesitatingly took therespon
sibllity in huge fights, when the fate of the
Republic hung trembling on, the issue,
blushed like a boy, while perspiration
gathered in drops upon, his forehead. It
wk rn
as with the greatest efibri that he forced
li self to proceed.
' He did so, however, with clearness and
graphic power. He sketched in a few
briefwords the campaign that culminated
in the battle before Nashville. He then
gave the position of the troops under both
Hood and himself. Be told, with the
power of words when uncolbred by any
iniagination, the situation of the enemy
as the two armies lay facing- , ,each other,,
until the hour Dame. when - they were
forced to try conclusions, and of the vic
tory that followed.
His voice Was never raised above a con
versational tone, nor did he for a second
betray any feeling. -It the great Cap
tain changed to the historian and retain
ing the traits in the one, that had made
him famous in the other. In conclusion,
he said, calmly, that looking over all the
ground, and tracing back the train of
events, he could not find abut one error
with which to charge himself. But that,
he said, was a grave error. At the close
of the first day's fighting he thought of
detaching Steedman with force enough
to possess himself of the fords of the Ten
nessee, so as to intercept the retreating
enemy. Over-captious, and fearing to
weaken his own forces, he hesitated and
delayed until after the second day's fight,
and then it was too late. That was the
one error, but, he said, it was a grave
one.
It was a great treat tome to see crowds
of intellectual hearers. Think of Wel
lington, or the great Napoleon, telling to
a select few, in this way, his knowledge
of Waterloo; and the subdued,. modest
way .of telling, here gave, a wonderful
charm to the narration. Ifwas knowing
of the battle Nashville and seeingthe hero,
as if the audience were a part of the great
event.
i ! A New Theory of steam.
'Me. Thogas Eubank who is known
1 as if gentleman. of considerable attain
! ments, has broache ew theory of
! steani. His essay islong, and he goes
I into the obtrusive features further than
I we have time to follow him. He says :
'1 "The proposed theory is based on the
! use of common or natural steam, reject
-1 ing the superheating hypothesis
.as un
natural, fraught with danger,uncalled
for and unprofitable. The following
propositions are deemed incontrovertible:
!
11. The force or power in itetun is a nat
ural _property, existing as fully in that
1 which-arises from open caldrons as
when generated in high pressure boilers.
They are considered as charged with ac
i cumulated common steam, as condensed
air is accumulated common air. 2. The
natural and legitimate mode of Increasing
i the power of steam is, like that of air,
water and everything else, by, increasing
1 its quantity. Quantity and-pressure are
(the
equivalents of each - other. When
pressnre is doubled, so is' the
Iquantity; and the converse, doub
ling the quantity doubles the pres
sure. 3 The force which produces
1 expansion in one direction produces ,
a correlative contraction in the' other:.
I Thus steam -has two forces, expansion
and contraction or collapsion, which by
the law of action and reaction, are abao
lately equal to each other. It the forego
ing be not sufficient to awaken inquiry
into the merits of collapsion, and two
other facts ' Which to most reflecting
minds will be evident: 1. In high pres
sure engines a cylinderful of common ,
steam is virtually lost at every stroke of
the piston. Raving no expansive force,
it only serves as a base on which the
other steam acts, or places it in a condi
tion to act. 2: That the steam discharged
from such engines as waste, and nearly
all that passes through the cylinders is
discharged as such, contains, - or can be
made to yield, more power than it im
parted to the pistons. More than half
the fuel .is therefore expended without
producing .any mechanical effect what
ever.
I TEE Clearfield Republican of last week
says: "The long pending quarrel be
' twean the Pennsylvania Railroad, Alle
gheny Valley Railroad and the Winslow
Colliery. with reference to the building
of a road from the mouth of Mahoning
creek, on the Allegheny river, to the
! month of Bennett's Branch, on the Phil.
adelphia and Erie Railroad, has at length
I been settled, and the road will be speedily
made. It will pass across the western
end of this county, through Brady, Union
and Hudson townships, and will have
the lowest grade of any railroad running
between the 'Eastern and Western States.
The grade will not exceed twenty-six
feet, while the lowest grade on any of the
roads now made is seventy-three feet. ".
"The only point not settled with refer ,
ence to this road, is whether it shall enter
our bounty by the Mahoning Valley route
or the Red Bank. We are somewhat
familiar with both these valleys, and are
decidedly In favor of the Mahoning route,
,its the most feasible, because it is the
most direct and the lowest grade. Be
sides, the Sandy Lick coal fields can, be
reached by this as well as by the other
route.. A glance at any State map will
establish this fact." •
A NEW YORK dispatch says: It is re
ported that. James_ Fisk and Jay Gould
have bought a three-fottrth's interest in
the New York' Times, for which they pay
t860;000. The negotiations have been
some time,in progress, but the papers are
not yet signed.
The Vigilance Committeejteld a meet
ing to-night to consider oficase of John
Real, and resolved to emplorcounsel, if
necessary, to watch the interests of citi-,
zens, and secure the enforcement of the
laws.
CARL BENSON thinks the "coming
man" ought to weigh one hundred and
fifty-five pounds. Professor Peasiee, on
the other hand, thinks the perfect physio
logical man will weigh one hundred and
forty pounds. And so we don't know
whether to fatten up or lean down,
