Cfiroraae anti JSentinel. WEDNESDAY, - OCTOBER 10^1877, TIIE FAIRV WORM). Ladies and gentlemen of mortal mold, 1 am come in haste from Fairy World: I've skimmed ever land* and ieaped over * lakes, I've hurried ahead for year own sweet sake. To let von know a wonderful thing, The Fairies are coming with Queen nd King ! They are coming on palfreys of lily like white, In chariots that gleam in silver bright; They will ride on the clouds and float in the breeze. They leap from the mountains and sail o'er the seas: They’re coming to gladden and greet you to night. To give you an hour of chasteste delight. With songs and with scenes and with Fairy land play. To beguile the dull time and drive care away, And then back again where all Fairies stay. TENDERNESS. Not unto every heart is God's good gift Of simple tenderness allowed : we meet With love in manv fashions when we lift First to our lips life’s waters bitter-sweet. Love comes upon us with resistless power Of curhless passion, and with headstrong will j It plavs around like April’s breeze and shower, Or calmly flows, a rapid stream, and still. It comes with blessedness niito the hearty That welcomes it aright, of bitter fate ! It wrings the bosom wit i so tierce a smart, That love, we cry. is craeler than hate. And then, ah me! when love has ceased to bless Our broken hfiarts cry out for ten lemons - We long for tenderness like that which hung About us, lying on onr mother’s breast; A selfless feeling, that no pen nor tongue Can praise aright, since silence sings it best; A love, as far removed from passion’s heat As from the dullness of its dying tire ; A love to lean on when the failing feet Begin to totter and the eyes to tire. Xn youth’s brief heyday hottest love we seek ; The reddest rose we grasp—but when it dies God grant that later blossoms, violets meek, May spring for us beneath life’s Autumn skies 1 God grant some loving one he near to bless Our wearv way with simple tenderness I [AU the Tsar Knurul. THE MWOKD OF SEMMKB. nr r. o. tioksob. The billows plnnged like steeds that bear The Knights with foamy crests; The sea-winds blare like bugles, where The Alabama rests. Old glories from th.ir splendor mists Salute with pomp, and hail The sword that held the ocean-lists Against the world in mail; And down from England’s stoned hills. From purple slopes of France, The old bright wine of valor fills The chalice of romance. For this was honor’s tourney-space, The tilt-yard of the sea, The battle-path of kingly wrath And kinglier courtesy; And down the deep, m sunless heaps, The gold, the gem, the pearl, In one broad blaze of splendor, belt Old England like an earl. And there they rest, the princeliest Of earth's regalia gems— The star-light of onr Southern cross, The sword of lUpiiael Hkwmes. And that gr< at glaive which Autiiur gave In guerdon to the sea— Eicalibnr, that sleeps below Until the groat sea-bugles blow The summons of the free. TIIE NON-SECTIONAL MAN. \From. the tit. Lewis Journal.] 1 met an honest little lad, As down the street I hied — "Now tell me, boy, if eke you can, Where Bascom dolh reside." "In sooth I can, my gentle sir," The honest lad replied ; "Proceed due North and soon you’ll come To where he doth reside.” "You speak seme words I ken not of,” My dainty youth I cried, “Now tell me in our modern speech Where Basoom doth reside.” “I know not North. I know not South- Such torms do ill betide— The North is South, the South is North, The West the East, beside.” "Good master,” quoth the gasping youth, "Yon surely do doride." "Nay, foolish boy, I apeak the truth,’ Astonished, I replied. "Lo, from the South the north winds blows, And eke the rising tide That splashes on onr Eastern shores Laves all the Western side. The snows do fall on Southern soil And on the prairies wide— The cotton on the Northoru plains Is now the Northman’s pride. There is no North, there is no South— These terms have long since died ! The North is South, the South is North, The West the East, beside. Now toll me, reconstructed boy— Nor think that I deride— Aye, tell ms in our modern speech Where Bascom doth reside.” "Good mastor. turn yo to the West And Oil tlio Eastern side. Ailown the Northern path, due South Two blocks, lio doth reside.” I did his bidding, loyal I! Then sat mo down and cried, i wot the speech was much at fault, Or else that boy had lied. TIIE COMMUNIST CITIZEN. Ami How Ills Hrelhron Applied Ike lloclrlns, “ Properly is Tliefl." It was a worthy citizen And ch ef of the commune, Was sitting, lone, despondent, In a busted beer saloon, Singing to himself a dismal song To a melancholy tune. And he sang : “ Kegard my blaekeuod eyes ; Behold this swollen nose. I smart and ache from wounds as well, That 1 mar not disclose Further that this— they are not in front. Anil wero inflicted by toes. " My fell ambition lured mo on Au orator to be. And eke a leader unto those Wliosewatch words are tho throe Familiar words, whereof the first Is it not ‘liberty ?’ In beer I dealt as well as blood-* 1 made the business pay ; Clattered the glasses ceaselessly, From dawn till twilight gray ; Nineteen good kegs of beer I drew With my red right hand each day. "For ‘starving working men’ somehow, in workless soasons drear. If not wherewith to feed their wives And clothe their children dear. Can always flue the money for Their whisky or their beer. "Enthusiast, idler, rnflian—all Took hitherward their wings To reconstruct society Without 'en priests or kiugs, To anarcliize all government j And generally smash things. "Ami talk bred thirst, and thirst made trad* Till I. the Communist, I Who urged the massacre of all In riches who exist. Became myself what I would call A ’bloated capitalist.' "Two thousand dollars I had here, A singly hour ago ; •A goodly pile.' said I with a smile, ‘For a Communist to show, W ho brands all Property as a crime And is Capital's deadly foe.” “Twaa late a; and I alone, when in Came stout Communists three. 'Ho, Citizen, down with the kings. , And priests and society ; Hurrah for Liberty. Fratern ity and Equality ! "Craw and set up for ns the beer In white and amber flood ; i Brink deep—Ah ! that I thus might quaff Some crowned usurper’s blood. And grind hie corpse with my red tight heel ! In the burning city’s mud. j "All Dru are brothers, all property’s theft ; W hat’s mine belongs to thee. And what thou hast thou must divide l With us, thy brothers three : Hurrah for Liberty. Fratern ity and Equality 1” "'Amen I .' I cried in rapture , ‘that Is the creed of creeds for me :' •Fill high the mug with Samian beer.' Cned those Communists three : And they drank nine rounds to the reforma- i 1 ion of society. "Then they turned to go. I said. ‘Citizons, Lend me your right ear. That part of your duty you’ve forget To me its very clear. Before yon go what I want to know Is—who pays for that beer ? • Then our stont Communist locked the door And one put out the light. And the third and stoutest clutched my throat Iu his brawny lingers tight ; 'Traitor.’ he hissed, as he smote my nose, ‘lf the Communist cieed be right— ‘lf property's theft, how darest thou ask Onr cash for thy bloated beer ? Ho. my comrades two, let us go through This squirming renegade here. Who is false to the faith each Communist Should above all else hold dear.’ "They stole my money, they robbed my till. They stove my beer kegs in ; They smashed ths glasses, they broke the chairs. They pummelled me like sin. Came officers none, for they thought that one Of our meetings was raging within. "At last I swooned and they left me. Not One cent did they fail to take. I lay prone and senseless, cut and bruised. In a beery, bloodv lake. A quivering island of agony A continent of ache. "Which is how I came by these blackeued eyes And by this bloody nose ; Why I ache and smart from wounds as well. That I mav not disclose Farther than this—they are not in front And were inflicted by toes. — New York W orld. The Fairfield Light Dragoons, T. R. Robertson, Captain, Lave been reor ganized.

[From the London Daily News.] Left Wixg, Loytcha Road, Septem ber 12.—1 will now relate the events which occurred on the Russian extreme left, commanded by Prinoe Meritinsky and Gen. Skobeleff. While the battle was raging in front and to the left of me, it raged with uo less fury round the redoubts and on the other side of the Loftcha road, but, up to the moment of the second repulse of Krilofl’, Skobeleff had not yet made his assault. He had well prepared the ground, however. At four o’clock he had brous ht down twen ty pieces of artillery to the spur of the ridge overlooking Plevna. Not more than a thousand yard# distant from the redoubt I saw an immense volume of smoke rising, and beard a terrible thun der, which was not more than five or six hundred yards away on my left. Skobe lefi, risking his artillery in this advanc ed position, was determined to make a desperate effort to capture the redoubt in front of him. Tho redoubt Skobeleff was attacking was a doable redoubt in the bend of the Loftcha road, down near Plevna. He had advanced his troops down the slope of the mountain to within easy range. As the Tuffife immediately opened fire upon him from the redoubt, he returned the fire with steadiness and precision, putting his men under cover as much as possible, his cannon pouring a steady stream of shell and canister into the le doubt as well. For three hours he kept up this fire, and just after KrilofTs sec ond repulse, the Turkish fire having somewhat relaxed, dominated by the Russian, he thought the moment had come for making tho assault. He had four legiments of the line, and four battalions of sharpshooters. Still keep ing up his murderous fire, he formed under its cover two regiments, the Vlad imirski and the Zoozolski, in the little hollow at the foot of the low hill on which was built tho redoubt, together with two battalions of sharpshooters, not more than twelve hundred yards from the scarp. Then, placing himself iu the best positiou for watching the result, he ceased fire and ordered the advance. Ho ordered the assailing party not to fire, and they rushed forward with their guns on their shoulders, with music playing and banners flying, aud disappeared in the fog and smoke. Sko belelf is the only General who places i himself near enough to feel the pulse of battle. The advancing column was indis tinctly seen, a dark mass in the fog and smoke. Feeling, as it were, every throb of the battle, he &aw this line begin to waver and hesitate. Upon the instant he hurled forward a rival regiment to support, and again watched the result. This new force carried the mass further on with its momentum, but the Turkish redoubt flamed and smoked, and poured forth such a torrent of bullets that the line was again shaken. Skobeleff stood in this shower of balls unhurt. All bis escort were killed or wounded, eveD to the little Kirghiz, who leceived a bullet in the shoulder. Again ho saw the lino hesitate and waver, and he flung his fourth and last regiment, the Libausky, on the glacis. Again this new wave carried the preceding ones forward until they were almost on the scarp; but that deadly shower of bullets poured upon them; men dropped by hundreds, and the result still remained doubtful. The line once more wavered and hesitated. Not a moment was to bo lost, if the re doubt was to be carried. Skobeleff had now only two battalions of sharpshooters left, the best in his de tachments. Putting himself at the head of these, he dashed forward on horse back. He picked up the stragglers ; he reached the wavering, fluctuating mass, and gave it the inspiration of his own courage and instruction. He picked the whole ma3 up, and carried it forward with a rush and a cheer. The whole re doubt was a mass of flame and smoko, from which screams, shouts and cries of agony and defiance arose, with the deep mouthed bellowing of the cannon, and, above all, the steady, awful crash of that deadly rifle fire. SkobelefTs sword was cut iu two iu the middle. Then a moment later, when just on the point of leaping the ditch, horse and man rolled together to the ground, the horse dead or wounded, the rider untouched. He sprang to his feet with a shout, then with a formidable, savage yell, the whole mass of men streamed oyer the ditch, over the scrap aud oounterscrap, over the parapet, and swept into the redoubt like a hurricane. Their bayonets made short work of the Turks still remaining. Then a joyous cheer told that the re doubt was captured, and that at last one of the defenses of Plevna was in tho hands of the Russians. Skobeleff seems to be the only one among the Russian Generals who has studied the American war with profit. He knows it by heart; and it will be seen by those who have studied the great civil war that, iu 4hia assault, Skobeleff followed tfie plau of the American Generals on both sidps when attempting to csrry sucli positions, to follqw up the assaulting polumn with fresh troops, without waiting for the first column to be repulsed. If the po sition proves too strong for the first column, then reinforcements are at hand before they have time to break and run. Skobeleff had the redoubt. The ques tion now was how to hold it. It was dom inated by tho redoubtjof Krishina, on the left, already spoken of. It was ex posed at the Plevna side to the fire the sharpshooters, and \o the ’Turkish forces [n the [ydod bordering (he Sofia road, and to the open fire' of tfcP en trenched pamp. Them a cro y s fire coming from three different poiutg. At daylight next morning the Turks open ed fire from all sides. The distance from the redoubts nt Krishina had, of course, been accurately measured, and the guns dropped shells into the re doubt with the utmost precision on the exposed sides. The back of the redonbt was a solid rock, on which it was im possible to erect a parapet- AU the earth had been used ior the construc tion of the parapets oh the other side. It was evident that the position was un tenable unless the c ; >mp pn the ptffe[ Bjqff of a hd Ih o srishi na redoubt could be retaken. Skobeleff renewed his demand for reinforcements made the evening before, At sunrise the Turks began an attack upon the captured redoubt, and the storm, of battle again rifged with fury here, while all was quiet everywhere else. The desperate attack of the Turks was repulsed. Another attack was made, anotaer renylge: and_ this jilt gay Jong tjntU 'the Turks had aftaeffed and been beaten five suc cessive times. The Russian losses were becoming fearful. Gem Sffobeieff had lest, he tninKs, u.Ornj men m attacking the redoubt. By the afternoon he had lost 3,000 more in holding it, while his battalions shrivelled up and shrank away as if by magic. One battalion of sharp shooters had been reduced to 160 men. A company which had been 150 was now |O. An immense proportion of officers ivere kiiled. unly one uouiuiancier of a regiment is alive; scarcely a head of a battalion is left. Two officers of the staff are killed, one of whom was Verast chagin, brother of the great artist. 4nother brother was wounded. Gen. Dobrovolsky, commander of sharp snooieriSi yas killed. One officer was blown to pieces by tfie explosion of a caisson. Capt. Kurapatkfn, chief of the staff, standing beside this offioer, had his hair singed, and suffered a severe contusion, Gen. Skobeleff' himself remainpd' unt M acued. Mo' seems to bear a charmed life. He visited the redoubt three oj four times during the day, encouraging the soldiers, telling them help would soon arrive. Plevna would soon be taken; victory would soon crown their efforts; telling them it was the final, de cisive blow struck for their country; for the honor glory of the Russian arms; and they always replied with the same oheery shouts, while their numbers were dwindling away by hundreds. He again and again sent for reinforcements, and again and again informed the G^- man . der .uai. cne position was un tenable. The afternoon wore away, and no reinforcements came. Gen. Levitsky, as I have been informed, formally re fused reinforcements, either because he thought the position, in spite of Gen. SkobelefTs representations, was tenable, or because he had no reinforcements to give. Gen. Kriloff, on his own respon sibility, the regitant of a regiment whieh had attacked the redoubt, which I saw rush forward and then back through that Indian corn-field. Of the 2,500 there were barely 1,000 left, so it was utterly incapable of going into ac tion that day; and even this regiment arrived too late. General Skobeleff had left the redonbt at 4 o’clock to go to his tent on a woody hill opposite. He had been there scarce ly an hour when he was informed that the Turks were again attacking the right flank on the Lovcha road, immediately above Plevna. He galloped forward to see, and was met by an orderly with the news that the Turks were also attacking the redoubt for the sixth time. He dashed forward toward the redoubt in hopes of reaching it in time, btR was met by a stream of his own men flying back. They were exhausted by forty eight hours’ incessant fighting, and were worn out, hungry and dying of thirst and fatigue. Owing to the inactivity of the Russians during the day, the Turks had been enabled to collect an over whelming force, which had made one last desperate effort and had succeeded in driving the Russians ont. One bas tion was held to the last by a young officer, whose name I regret I have for gotten, with a handful of men. They refused to fly, and were slaughtered to the last man. It was just after this jthat I met Gen. Skobeleff, the first time that day. He was in a fearful state of excitement and fury. His uniform was covered with mud and filth; his sword broken; his Cross of St. George twisted round on his shoulder ; his face black with powder and smoke; his eyes haggard and blood shot, and his voice quite gone. He spoke in a hoarse whisper. I never be fore saw such a picture of battle as he presented. I saw him again in his tent at night. He was quite calm and col lected. He said, “I have done my beet ; I could do no more. My detachmeut is half destroyed; my regiments do not exist; I have no officers left; they sent me no reinforcements, and I have lost three guns.” “Why did they refuse you reinforcements? Who was to blame?” “I blame nobody,” he replied. “It is the will of God.” THE FASTEST ON RECORD. Great Eastern, Under tlie Saddle, Trots a .Hite In 2:15 3-4. Yet Does Not Win. [New York Sun.] Hundreds of turfmen assembled in Fleetwood Park yesterday aft rnoon to witness the great trot for $2,000, Mr. Charles Green haviDg offered two weeks ago to trot, and name at the post, a horse, to go as he pleased, against John Splan’s famous trotter Barns in harness. Green’s horse proved to be Great East ern, under saddle. Green’s horse proved to be Gieat Eastern, un der saddle. The track was in splendid condition. Among the promi nent horsemen present were David Bon ner, Charles Backman, Shepherd F. Knapp, Edward Kearney, Win. H. Van derbilt, Seaman Letchenstein, Alfred Richmond, S. Foster Dewey, ex-Com missioner Kelso, Allen Bonner, Wm. Griswold, Charles Kimpland, Ed Gil more. Fast time was anticipated and realized, Great Eastern trotting in 2:15f, the fastest on record to saddle, beating May Bird’s time by four seconds, which was the fastest mile ever trotted hereto fore in Fleetwood Park. May Bird’s time to saddle was 2:19j. The specta tors were perfectly wild when tho time of the heat was announced. Promptly at two o’clock the judges rang the bell. Charles Green appeared on the bay geld ing Great Eastern, apd John Splan was behind Rarus. Before starting Rarus was the favorite by SIOO to S3O for Great Eastern. First Heat—There was a good send off in the first attempt, Rarus taking the lead. Great Eastern went in the air at the turn. Rarus trotted steadily past the quarter in 36} seconds, being four lengths in advance. Splan was ready for desperate work, bat Great Eastern kept breaking. Rarus passed the half mile in 1:14, leading three lengths.— Splan made no effort to send Rarus along the rest of the heat and crossed the score on a jog, taking the heat by one length iu 2:33. Second Heat—The betting was the same. When the horses got the word Great Eastern had a little the best of it. At the turn he broke. At the quarter, seconds, Rarus was leading by oue length. At the half-mile post, in i:o7}, Rarus still maintained his lead by three quarters of a length. Around the lower turn Great Eastern closed the gap at every stride, and passed Rarus while swinging into the liome-stretch. Rarus, by fast trotting, nearly gained the lead, Out Great Eastern took the lead, by a head, in 2:18. Third Heat—The horses were given a long waiting spell before being brought out again. At the first attempt they got under way head and head, both trotting fast. On the turn Great East ern, with an extraordinary burst of speed, led oue length at the quarter in thirty-threo seconds. Going down the back stretch both settled to business, but Rirus could not take the lead. Great Eastern passed the half-mile post in 1:05J. On the home-stretch there was an exoiting struggle. Splan, with all the skill known to the profession,was urging on Rarus, and Charlie Green was seen lifting and shaking Great Eastern. Every one saw that Rarus was gaining ground inch by inch, but the pace was too hot for him, and he broke. Great Eastern, trotting with wonderful speed, took the heat from Rarus by five lengths in tho unparalled time of making the fastest mile ever trotted to saddle. Rarus trotted the heat in 2:16}. Fourth Heat —Great Eastern was now the favorite. The word was given on the third score, with Great Eastern lead ing—an advantago that Charlie Green was boimd to turn to good advantage. Great Eastern passed by the quar ter pole in thirty-two and a half sec onds. Rarus was a length behind and breaking. Down the back stretch the positions were unebanped. Great East ern passed the half-mile pqle one length in front of Pams, iu which is the fastest half lqile ever trotted. On the lower turn, before reaching the three quarter pole, Rarus made a double break. Great Eastern drew away, and at fhe fiead qf the stretch was sis lengths in Rout. When Rarus caught his gait he gradually gained on Great Eastern, who broke. The horses went under the wire head and head in 2:18-J. Tho judges decided it a dead heat. Fifth Heat—A great many said the result of tho heat was a foregone conclu sion, that Rarus would win the trot. After the usual time the horses were called. On the third attempt they start ed. At the first quarter the friends of Great Eastern sangqipq (Jfcat ho fould win, w'hpb aheVpast iu 3|3 sec qnd'g. Eatqs aboqt a length be hind. These positions were nqt varied When at the half: inßOfii. Great Eastern then broke, and Rarus deew away and took the heat easily by three lengths, in 2:21. Sixth Heat—Great Eastern looked tir ed, and it was almost certain that the heat would be taken by Rurus, who, at tho word, started with a good gait. Rarus took the lead, and moving easily passed the quarter in 86 seconds, and was first at the half on a jog in 1:12}. Great Eastern was two lengths behind. Rarus trotted steadily aDd won tue hop(i and race in §:27|. - ILLINOIS GIRLS OF THE PERIOD. The Freak* l Two Student* of a Western Female Seminary. [Cincinnati Enquirer.] Oxford, Ohio, was horrified last week. Two girls, about sixteen and eighteen years old, respectively, qttepcfipg the VYesterq deft in ary,' became Weary of leading a steady, studious, sober life, and left fhp building that would have guarded and kept them from harm, silently, and without leave, to explore the sinful world beyond. They took neither money, food nor clothes with them, but left all and went, as the tramps go, depending upon the cold charity of strangers. The first place they stopped at and became conspicu ous was College Corner, after spending Sunday night in an old mill near Rising Sun, iqr mile* U.o m fcJxforil. Here, by marching up and down the streets, and trying to flirt with her handsome lads, they attracted general notice, and oasued remarks to be made different from those made of Caesar’s wife. The lads being very bashful, and not sus ceptible to their charms, they boarded the train going toward Indianapolis. As the distance” between them' and school became greater, their actions became more loud, and they were the observed of all observers on tqg f;ain. When ashed for teir tiuketa they Wd the conductor that they were running away from school at Oxford, and tha,s they had 110 money or friends. He, at Brownville, put them in charge of the conductor on the down traih, telling him their story, who took charge of them and telegraph ed the facts to Oxford. When train arrived there tho girls, unsteady ip their movements, alighted from the train and tsood upon the platform, aetiDg and talking very queer, and gathering a largo erowd around them, many of whom will swear that girls were “boozy.” | T!le gentlemanly conductor of the ’tes j line approached them „nd politely 1 asked tq ha permitted to take them j back to school. But they very em phatically told him to go to a warmer region with his Seminary; they did not care a for hell an’ all her an gels !” He was completely bluffed, and blushed for the first time in his life. Proceeding up town on Main street they acted like two Indian squaws under the influence of juice. They soon disap peared from observation, however, and , nothing further was heard from them j until the next day, when a fanner’s lad j came to town and asked for help to cap ture two school girls who were running ; in the woods two miles north of town, j Two men returned with him, and the , two girls, hungry, tired and sorry, were I lad captive back whence they had run j away. Friends came forthem, and they 1 have departed sadd er if wiser, to j their Illinois homes. A Horse Slang lo Death by Bees. [BooneciUe Eagle ] At a meeting recently at New Concord Church, a horse was hitched too near a bumble bee’s nest. The bees attacked him slightly at first, but as he charged and plunged, attempting to get away, they attacked him from all sides, until the poor beast could stand it no longer. He uttered shriek after shriek in his agony, and then lay down and died. New Advertlsemeuts. VECETINE Purifies the 81004, Renovates and Invigorates the Whole System.
