Until 11 o'clock at night the emperor had marched with the last battalions of grenadiers that still supported the retreat. Accompanied by Soult,Drouot, Bertrand, several officers and a dozen red lancers and chasseurs of the guard, he reached Quatre-Bras at 1 o'clock in the morning, vainly hoping to find there the Division GIrard, which had been ordered to that point. The emperor dismounted in a glade of the forest of Bosser, near a bi vouac fire, kindled by some grenadiers of the guard. A wounded officer, flee ing along the road, recognized the em peror by the firelight He was stand ing erect, bis arms folded upon his breast, motionless as a statue, his eyes fixed in the direction of Waterloo. There were no tidings from Grouchy, who, they feared, must be in danger. The emperor ordered Soult to advise him of the retreat of the army, and direct him to retire upon the lower Sambre. Soldiers of every branch of the service were running along the road and across the fields. Command ant Baudus, on horseback among the fugitives, saw the little group of the imperial staff and Joined it The em peror asked if he had not met some army corps not entirely disorganized. Baudus replying that not far from Quatre-Bras he had passed the Fifth Lancers still marching in order under Col. Jacqueminot "Go instantly," said the emperor, "and order him to stop at Quatre-Bras. It 13 late, and the enemy finding this point occupied, will probebly halt." Baudus started at a gallop, hut fire opening upon him from the first houses at the cross roads he returned to the emperor and en treated him to withdraw, "since he had no longer any support" As he spoke he saw that Napoleon was silently weeping for his shattered army. In his gloomy face, pallid as wax, there was no life except these tears. But In this dejection the emperor retained his presence of mind. The Girard Division not appearing, he con cluded that his orders had miscarried. If ignorant of the defeat, it was in danger of being surprised and captured by the enemy. He ordered Baudus to hasten to Fleurus and bring up the di vision on the right bank of the Sam bre. Then, yielding to necessity, he set out for Charleroi, where he arrived at five in the morning to find only the maddest confusion. The single bridge across the Sambre had give: way un der the pressure of escaping French troops. The streets were choked with fugitives and encumbered with the broken and pillaged vehicles of the hospital trains jd the commissariat A false alarm that the Prussians bad attacked the town had destroyed all discipline. The citizens and the sol diers had rifled the military chest which the paymaster had bravely but vainly endeavored to save. The coach containing the military portfolio had been stopped; but the Due de Bassano was able to destroy the most important papers. To restore order was impos sible. After giving a few orders, which no one obeyed, the emperor pur sued bis way on horseback to Philippe vllle, where he was joined by the Due de Bassano and other ofuccrs.and again by Marshal Soult His first efforts were to rally the army. Orders were dispatched to cer tain commandants to take charge of such detachments and stragglers as they could collect supply them with food and arms, and direct them to specified places of rendezvous. A new order was sent to Marshal Grouchy, to retire upon Philippeville or Gevit Then the emperor wrote two letters to his brother Joseph, the one care fully relating the result of the battle, to be read to the council of ministers. The other, a private letter, disguising nothing of the great disaster, announc ing his immediate return to Paris. The second letter closed with these words: "All is not lost By uniting my forces, all reserves, the National Guard, I shall have three hundred thousand men to oppose to the enemy. But I must be aided, not hampered. I be lieve that the deputies will feel it to be their duty to unite with me in or der to save France." The direct route from Philippeville to Paris was unavailable on account of the bodies of Prussian cavalry over running the country. At Rocroi, on the circuitous route he chose, the in habitants, unaware of the great disas ter, swarmed to see and salute the em peror. Their acclamations awakened him In his carriage. At Mezicres, the want of fresh horses delayed the im perial party from half past ten until midnight When at last they got off the soldiers of the garrison shouted. "Vive l'Empereur!" until the last car riage had passed the glacis. The next evening at Laou, Faubourg de Vaux, the emperor alighted in the courtyard of the post house. Through the wide open door they could see him from the street walking up and down, his head bent his arms crossed upon his breast There was a quantity of straw scattered in the court upon which the stables opened. One of the bystanders said. In a low tone: "See Job on his dung-heap!" Napoleon seemed so downcast, the scene was so Impressive, even to the rustic mind, that they dared not acclaim him. A few timid, half-stifled shouts of "Vive l'Empereur!" came from the crowd. The emperor stopped and raised his hat A detachment of the National Guard arrived to form the guard of honor. The emperor made every pro vision for rallying-his scattered forces. Then, after nightfall, without waiting for Marshall Soult. whom he had left with orders at Philippeville. he re sumed his hurried journey to Pari3. waers his enemies were conspiring and where his greatest danger lay. Without soldiers, and without eammcB, he could not face the enemy on- the frontier. Soult and the generals were as competent as himself to collect and reorganise the stragglers. From Paris, with Davoust and Carnot, he hoped to forward to Laon all available troops, all stores of provisions and arms; with the co-oparatlon of the Chambers, to secure fresh levies of men and supplies and in three or four days return to take command. It has been charged that Napoleon "abandoned his army." as in Egypt and Russia. Alas! Napoleon had no longer an army. He kne-r nothing of Grouchy, with the 'divisions of Van damne and GIrard, but believed him to be in great peril. Of the 74.000 com batants of Waterloo, possibly 40,000 might have escaped across the Sambre, but more than three-fourths of these men were scattered from Cambral to Rocroi, making their way homeward, singly or in little parties. When Na poleon left Laon for Paris, the 20th of June, he had 2.600 soldiers assembled at Phlllippevllle, and about 6,000 at Avesnes. This was the army. A Ilrave Mae. "That is one of the bravest men I ever knew," said Gen. F.osecrans, pointing out his inspector-general, Ar thur .C. Ducat "I saw him cooly face almost certain death, to perform a duty. Three on the same duty had fallen before his eyes, and he had to run the gauntlet of a thousand mus kets, but he did it" The word3 were spoken to James R. Gilmore, while on a visit to "Old Rosey's" army at Murfreesborough, who records them in his "Personal Recollections." Ct. Rosecrans referred to Ducat's behavior at the battle of Iuka. The inspector-general had observed that a regiment of Gen. Stanley's division was about to be overwhelmed by a much larger force of the enemy. "Ride on and warn Stanley at once," said Rosecrans, as Ducat reported the danger. An acre on fire and swept with bullets lay between him and the menaced regiment Ducat glanced at it and said: "General, I have a wife and chil dren." "You knew that when you came here," answered Rosecrans, coolly. "I'll go, sir." said Ducat, moving his horse forward. "Stay a moment We must make sure of this," said the general, begin ning to write dispatches, the paper resting on the pommel of his saddle. He wrote three; gave one to each of three orderlies, and sent them off, at intervals of about sixty yards, over the bullet swept field. Then he look ed at Ducat, who had seen every one of the orderlies fall lifeless, or desper ately wounded. Without a word, he plunged into the fire, ran the gauntlet in rafety, got to Stanley, and saved the regiment, but his clothes were torn by Minle balls, and his horse received a mortal wound. Ex-Soldiers Colonising. Several thousand American regulai soldiers are to be mustered out in Torto Rico ani Cuba in the next few weeks, says a Washington correspon dent of the New York Press. They will receive their extra pay, orders for pas sage home on government transports, and the mileage from the port to the places where they enlisted. It will be optional with them to return to the United States. These soldiers will be turned loose on the Islands. What proportion of them will elect to remain where they are discharged the government has vo means of judging. Discharges are now being granted to regulars who enlisted for the war at the rate of about 100 a day in Cuba. Many of these discharg ed men are apparently in no haste to return to this country, and there are so many of them now in Havana that they cause uneasiness among the Cu ban police. So far these Americans have behaved remarkably well. They have given as little trouble as a like number of recently discharged soldiers might in an American city. The growth of a disposition on the part of these soldiers to settle the is lands is being observed with much in terest from Washington. It has a bearing on the question of assimilation of the Porto Ricans and the Cubans bv the United States. A Carious 8wls Cantom. The tenacity with which Europeans cling to ancient ways is seen in a curi ous custom which prevails at the pres ent day in Basel, a Swiss city of near ly 100,000 inhabitants. Horses being very expensive in Switzerland.the mid dle classes cannot afford the luxury, and when a young man becomes en gaged to be married he levies on one of his rich neighbors for a span. Though he may not know the rich man even by sight, he notifies him that he wishes his carriage and footman to call at his home at a specified time. He then uses the conveyance to call with his fiancee upon everybody of their acquaintance. At the marriage the same thing takes place again. It is expected that the groom will give a tip of from $2 to $4 to each coachman so employed. The Land of Dacks. There are more ducks in the Chinese empire, says an authority, than in all the world outside of it. They are kept up by the Celestials on every farm, on the private roads, on the pub lic roads, on the streets of cities, and on all the lakes, ponds, rivers, streams and brooks in the country. Every Chinese boat also contains a batch of them. There are innumerable hatch ing establishments all through the em pire, many of which are said to turn out about 50,000 young ducks every year. Salted and smoked duck, and ducks' eggs, constitute two of the most common and important articles of diet in China. Stady the Art ef Advertising-. Professor James Bryce in a recent address at University College, Liver pool, suggested that the students should take a systematic training in what he denominated "the art and mystery of advertising." At Hl Head. He "Wasn't Clawn's wife named Stone before she was married?" Slw "Yes.and it was a very suitable name." He "What do you mean?" She "Oh, nothing! Only she threw her self at his feet" The famous expression, "Don't shoot it til you can see the whites of their eyes" has been supplanted out In the Philippines by a new phrase. Accord ing to one cf the members of the Twentieth Kansas regiment the cus tomary order prior to attacks upon the Filipinos is: ;bon't shoot until von can see tne lights on their tlgmr-etVes!" ta Araty. Julius Goldschmldt, consul general Of the United States in Germany, con cerning the horses that are used by the German army, says: The following report concerning horses for the German army is based on Information received from officers and from an experience" veterinary surgeon who has for years superin tended the purchase of horses for one of the Germany army corps. The so called "remonte" horse markets, public and private, take place in the months of April, to September In the parts of Germany where horses are plentiful, mostly Jn East and West Prussia, oc casionally in Posen. Hanover, Hol steln, and Mecklenberg, and, rarely, In the Alsace and the Rhine provinces. Private remonte markets are allowed to horse breeders, who have for years furnished a large and superior quota of animals for the army, and who can offer lots of from 20 to 80 good horses. Such private markets may even be held on the grounds of the horse breeders and occur mostly in East and West Prussia. In Lith uania proper there are more private than public markets. The buying is done by five army commissariats', consisting each of one presiding officer, one to two assistant officers, "one veterinary surgeon, and one secretary. The horses purchased are generally three years old. In ex ceptional cases four years. The for mer remain one year at the remonte depots before they are turned over to the regular service. There are no fixed rules as to the weight of the horses, and when horses are weighed in such places it is on account of selen itic food experiments or private in terests. Bult it is safe to say that full breasted, compactly-built horses are used. They will average in weight about as follows: Artillery draft horses, 1.100 to 1,200 pounds, artillery saddle horses 900 pounds, cuirassier horses 1.000 to 1.100 pounds. Uhlan horses 900 to 1.000 pounds, hussar and dragon horses 800 to 900 pounds. The common run of horses for the line cavalry are bought at from 80 to $100, while the heavier horses for ar tillery run from $140 to $160, and the best horses, which are used for the Kurassier Garde regiments, are seldom bought under $200. This applies to the remonte commissariat's work. Of ficers, as fc rule., ride East Prussian horses. Those that can afford it buy English blooded stock at fancy prices. The best Prussian horse brings from $225 to $340. These are all however bought at an age of from 5 to 6 years and well trained, since the Prussian horse is hardly fit for use before Its sixth year is concluded. English and Irish horses, which are largely bought in Hamburg, are, owing to the richer nourishment they receive on their na tive pastures when young, fit for use at the age of four .to five years, and are less nervous, shy and excitable than the Prussian horses. The Irish horse Is the easiest to ride under all circumstances, the early wholesome nourishment giving it a calmer and more docile temper. I have reason to believe that under the name of Irish stock many American horses are sold in Hamburg, as the description given of them closely resembles that of the American horse. It would be well for the American horse breeders or horse dealers to correspond with large firms In Hamburg, such as the "English Stall" or the "Olde Stall." before en tering largely in the shipping business. Alfalfa and Corn for Hogs Tho farmers of the corn belt can get a good pointer on pig feeding from the alfalfa belt. I have seen a pig that was farrowed Sept. 20, 1898, and raised on a ration two thirds of which wa3 alfalfa hay. which is as large as any pig I can find In the corn belt farrowed In June, July or August. The nup tials of King Corn and Queen Alfalfa are announced to take placo on my farm at an early date. The fourth cutting of alfalfa is the best hay for bogs In winter. This cutting is done late in the fall and Is raked immedi ately and shocked, thus curing with out very much sun. The leaves and all are saved in a succulent condition, thi'.s making a feed that is relished by the pigs. Homestead. Why Fresh Bones Make Eggs. Tho different parts of ordinary market bones upon analysis were found to con tain In abundance the ingredients which go to make up the growing chick, and in wonderfully close pro portion, the different parts of the com plete egg. The lean meat and gristle from the white of the egg, and about sixteen per cent of the yolk. The mar row and other fat on the bones sup ply the remainder of the yolk. The lime phosphates in the bone yield all the necessary lime salts for the shell, and the requisite phosphates for the interior of the egg. A. C. Pickering, in Farm and Home. Deep Plowing Profitable. Land that is plowed endures the drouths better than shallow plowed land, as there is a greater absorption of moisture. In other words, the deeper the soil Is plowed the greater its capacity for holding water. To prevent loss of this moisture the top soil should be culti vated so as to simply loosen it, which prevents evaporation and at the same time keeps the weeds down. The water in the soil escapes at the surface, and this should be prevented by a mulch of loose dirt over the surface, which is effected by cultivation. Ex. Oleo Prosecutions In Pennsylvania. The butter trade of Philadelphia has taken up the prosecution of the oleo dealers, and have already secured evi dence of the violation of both the state and national law, and propose to push the suits to a conclusion. In the in vestigation fifty retail dealers have been found selling the stuff without even the formality of a government license. In every case they were sell ing oleo as butter. Ex. Ash Is what Is left when the com bustible part of a feeding stuff Is burn ed away. It consists chiefly of lime, magnesia, potash, soda, iron, chlorln, and carbonic, sulphuric, and phos phoric acids, and is used largely In making bones. Part of the ash con stituents of the food is stored up In the animal's body; the rest Is voided in the urine and manure. Organic nitrogen is nitrogen in com bination with other elements either as vegetable or animal matter. The more valuable sources are dried blood, dried meat, tankage, dried fish, and cotton seed meal. Brush the udder and surrounding parts and wipe them with a clean, damp cloth or sponge.
