A very interesting official report

:rg the period between February

Americana, to March 31st. It laya
he total number of United Statu
troops killed or who have dud from

is 182. The total number of wouou-
ed dnring the same period and not
included in the above is 847. Of
the slight wounds many of the pas
tients have retnrned to duty.
The repert says the eff.ct of the
battle was marve'oui. Many who
seemed hardly able to do common
dnty were on the firing line when
the engagement became general.
The worst of the wounded and
the sick, who it was thought could
not recover on tbe island, have been

the hops that many of tbe latter will
folly recover through tbe change of
climatic influences.
Tbe report says the surgeons were
cot caught unprepared when the
attack was made and were in entire

I like the piece, too, mighty well,
He wrote en Crucifixion,
Such things I can't get off so well
Like tbat man S. L. Dixon.
With me snch things are put te
nignt,
My mind it goes to mixin',
And so you see I cannot write
Things up like S. L. Dixon.
They say one time he wrote a piece
mat was worth noting down,
But its circulation bad to cease,
For it was on Smiley Brown.
But I cant write a little bit,
Neither am I a fixin',
Because I have not got the wit
To huck at S. L. Dixon.

The well trained blood hound
is doubtless of great value in
tracing legbaiicriminalR. Another
instanoe is noted from Chata
nooga, Teen., where Jesse Hatlley
an 18-year old negro boy assaulted
Miss Bessie Sparks and escaped.
He left his shoes and the dog
took the scent from them and
soon had his teeth in Hafily's
leg. He first tried to exonerate
himself bat came down to a
straight contession". The sheriff
spirited him away and saved him
from the usual fate for the usual
provocation.

The ancient believe thut rheumatism
was tho work of a demon within a man.
Any one who bus hud an attack of scia
tic or inflammatory rheumatism will
agree that the inilictioa is djiuohiac
enough to warrant tho belief. It bus
never been claimed thut Chamberlain's
rain Balm would cast out demons, but
it will cure rheumatism, nnd hundreds
bear testimony to tho truth of this
statement. Ono application relieves the
Pain, and this quick relief which it
affords is alone worth many t imes its
