GENERAL CUSTER'S REMAINS.
Their Kxhumiitton mid Keinovnl from the
Buttle Ground.
A dispatch to the New York Herald
snys: Colonel M. Sheridan, with certain i
military anil other friends; Troop J, of
the Seventh cavalry, Captain Nowlan f
commanding; C. "J. Barronette and G.
Henidon White and Curley, who were f
with Caster; Half Yellow Face, who was
with Reno, and several Crow Indian ^
sconts, with a train of ox wagons, left
the mouth of the Little Big Horn river,
at noon of the first inst. for the Caster 8
field. They traveled twelve miles up the
west side of the river and camped, n
Early the next morning Barronette, with
most of the scouts, pressed rapidly up t
some five miles to the old village site,
then six miles across it, over immense
quantities of lodge poles, camp kettle
pails, pots and other camp equipage?
much of which \v;<? broken aud destroyed
by General Terry alter the Indian re- e
treat?and into Reno's valley; thence a
they filed some tea miles above, returning
again along the line of the Indians' <?
retreat to Ouster's valley and his elevated {
but sileut resting place. Meanwhile tho
main party had marched to near the ceu- j
ter of the village site, some six miles t
long, and camped at ten a. m. Thence
in squads they passed over Custer's val- g
ley, on the west side of the stream, and
the now deep, rapid ford and line of retreat,
and all united at Custer's grave, at
the extreme end and highest point of a f
broken, treeless ridge. 8
Gradually riding a mile mid a half
from this and then some feet down the 11
western slope they found, partially un- t
earthed, all that remains of the gallant 8
Custer. Beside and below him lay his
brother. Cant. Thomas Custer, and other f
officers and friends, surrounded by the v
partially exposed and bleaching bones of
the soldiers and their horses, fragments ^
of clothing and shoes and shod hoofs of g
horses. Although the remains of Gen.
Cnster and most of his friends there, as
elsewhere, had evidently been disfigured 11
by the coyotes or savages, and probably *
both, and many, if not the most, of the s
skulls there and throughout all the fields A
were smashed to fragments, mangled or
missing, still what was decided to be and 1
probably were the maiu portions of the 1
boues of Gen._ Caster aud his two !
brothers were secured. Neither Reed ;
nor the officers who fell with him and
Reno were found.
The remains were carefully and sor- c
rowfully gathered, wrapped and then
packed with grass cut from Ouster's ^
valley, placed in ten rough coffins and ^
brought away. The remains of Lieut. c
Porter and some of his men have been t
found. Though the bodies of Lieut. f
iucj.axosn nou ur. ue won were uis
overed and buried last year, little, if fl
any, portions of their remains or of *
Lieut. Hodgson's could now be found.
By the request of his esteemed father, j
the gallant Lieut. Crittenden sleeps s
where he fell, with his boys about him, t
awaiting Gabriel's reveille, but for the a
guidance of his friends, his name, rank, I
etc., are rudely carved upon a head- j
post. Another board shows where Capt. r
Keogh fell, and where his men sleep. 5
There is also a rude inscription at the r
head of each of the others, but most of
the soldiers, either singly or in groups,
have a stake thriven where they rest.
After the duty of sprinkling mother
earth upon the fallen braves and the re- I
ligious ceremonies were finished, the I
train and cortege slowly and silently t
wended its way from the lofty cactus I
desert to the deep valleys of cottonwoo l t
and willow that fringed the rivers of n
this Indian battle land. t

A Queer Mistake. a
Dominic B. Batoine is a paymaster in 3
the navy. Just before Secretary Robe- ?
son was retired "Rat/vine was stationed at 1
New York. Having made up his quar- ?
terly accounts, quite a bulky package, ^
he concluded not to risk their transmis- *
sion by installments, but packed the entiro
budget of papers in -a brandy box. c
It so happened that the word " brandy," n
which was marked on the lid of the box *
which once contained the original fluid
packages, was not effaced; and, thus !
marked, the box arrived by express in 1
Washington, directed to the secretary of n.
the navv. When the attention of Secre- ,
tary Robeson was directed to it, he seems ^
to have conclnded that some friend hail *
shipped him a case of "Old Otard."
" Muse," said the secretary, addressing ?
his dignified messenger, " take that box E
of brandy up to my house and put it in the ?
wine-cellar." Muse did as he was direct- j
ed, and the box was consigned to the ?
vaults. When Secretary Thompson came
in as chief of the navy department, he P
found that Batoine's accounts were one 11
quarter behiud. The department indul- 1
ged him for awhile, under the belief th:it ?
he was pressed and had not time to make j'
them up. After waiting many days, it
was deemed best to advise him of his de- 11
linquency, and he was accordingly notified.
In due course of mail Batoine repliel,
"I sent my quarterly accounts to
the department two months ago." Then a
began a wild search for the missing 0
] apers. Clerks hunted through the de- j3
partment high and low, but did not find I
them. Again the department telegraphed S,
Batoine that his accounts could not be
found, and meanwhile entertained a faint ?
i.. l l i 1 11
BllspiClUIl Ulill ue IlilU UCCI1 eiigiigeu JII
some "crooked" transactions and was 11
purposely withholding them. A few days ^
since, Batoine came to this city in high n
dudgeon. The search for the missiug
papers was resumed, but the hunt w:is
fruitless. A day or two ago, one of the
officers said: "Batoine, in what shape
did you send the papers?'' Batoine re- tl
plied, "I forwarded them in a brandy- 0
box." This was a clue. Secretary t,j
Robeson was asked if it might not have 0
been possible that he sent the box to his e
house through mistake. He thought t]
not, but invited a search through his ^
cellar. The search made, and in a j
very little while tho identical box of n
papers wan found. a:

Don't Worry about Yourself. g
To retain or recover health, persons f]
should be relieved from anxiety concern- ! o
ing disease. The mind has power over the i v
body?for a person to think he has a disease . o
will often produce that disease. This I p
we see effected when the mind is intense- E
ly concentrated upon the disease of an- 1
other. We have seen a person seasick, , tl
in anticipation of a voyage, before reach- w
ing the vessel. We have known people li
to die of cancer in the stomach, when u
they had no cancer in the stomach or auy "V
other mortal disease. A blindfolded tl
man, slightly pierced in the arm, has si
fainted and died from believing he was si
bleeding to death. Therefore persons g
should have their minds diverted as
much as possible from themselves. It is
hv tVipir fpifVi flint. mpn nrp cnvp/1 nnrl if.
is by their faith that they die. As a i p
man thinketh, so is he. If he wills not; ii
to die, he can often live in spite of disease;! p
and, if he has little or no attachment to j D
life, he will slip away as easily as a child | ^
will fall asleep. Men live by their | r,
minds as we'l as by their bodies. Their i a
bodies have no life of themselves; they j p
are only receptacles of life?tenements ; 8]
for their minds, and the will has much to ; a:
do in continuing the physical occupancy ! Tr
or giving it up. j C]
John Kearney's Family.
As a farmer was going from Dogfennel h
to Lexington, Ky., he overtook two lit- f(
tie boys, walking, who wanted a ride. u
Of course he gave them seats, and soon ft:

many boys his father had, he promptly q
stated that he did not know, but named ii
over seven that he remembered. He was fc
then asked how many girls he had. He ^
stated he did not know exactly, but there

Fashion Notes,
Loopings giving irregular effects are
dmired. ?
Crossuse drapery in overskirtB is fash- 1
onable. '
Grenadines are cut in the Princesse 1
orm. t
The "skeleton polonaise " is a leading j
nvorite. (
There are many variations in summer
nodes. j
Striped silk vests are worn with plain
ilk dresses.
Cambric suits are fashionable for 1
aorning and evening wear.
The manner of trimming gives the cosume
its position in the world of dress.
Linen suits adorned with torchon lace
an be made very dressy in effect.
Figured lawns are fashionable.
A batiste polonaise, designed for travling
wear, is made quite plain and [
,mple.
Perhaps there is no style of dress goods (
o appropriate for summer wear as grenatines.
(
Figured grenadines, trimmed with
>laited lace and satin ribbon in loops, is ,
lie latest. ,
Square pockets are still ulmired, and ,
iquare collars for seaside costumes are
n favor.
Breton costumes come now in all sorts '
>f dress materials, from silk to cambric,
tnd are picturesquely trimmed.
"Albatross" cloth makes up finely,
md is very suitable for traveling cos- j
umes. It comes iu solid and light <
hades.
Basket figured suitings are fashionable
or traveling toilets; wooden buttons are
ised for trimming.
Fashion does not demand that the
furious make-ups of a traveling toilet
iliould bear the expression of similitude.
Steeple-top parasols are much worn,
md come in a variety of styles. The
Main and fancy are offered, and the :
'election depends upon the occasion of
year.
Trimming laces are now in great de- '
nand. The "go" for torchon lace on <
lark cambrics, and even all wool garneuts,
presents a rather picturesque ;;
reak in the world of dress, but never- !
heless this oddity is so replete with the i
deal of beauty that one is compelled to
tdmire the innovation, startling as it is. <
Bunting suits are not such favorites a9i 1
vere at first expected they would be. '
[lie navy blue bunting is employed to a !
iousiderable. extent in the make-up of !
raveling costumes. The trimmings arc
piiet, with the exception of the buttons, :
vhicli are often profusely used, and add

i gay uiiu. bumtnvmib iuuu uuiou iv>
lie toilet.
Complete suits of bunting are very 1
>retty for seaside wear. The dress, para- .
ol and mantle-wrap are all composed of
be same material, wbich is generally of ,
, dark blue shade, and when orne with
iidia galloon bands of a blooming as- j'
>ect, the toilet is one of smiling loveliless,
and hence only correctly worn by
'outh. All this brightness of dress is .
aalapropos for middle age. ,
Something about Torpedo Boats. :
The torpedo boat is a particularly J
Lmerican idea. It was in 1776 and in j
few York harbor that the first torpedo .
>oat was launched. David Bushnell, an ,
Lmerican Captain of Engineers, under- J ]
ook to plant a torpedo under a British I.
Qun-of-war, but did not succeed. The j
orpedo was to be attached to the bottom !
if the vessel by means of a wooden screw, j j
nd then fired by a clockwork-fuse. Dur
ng the following year a drifting percus- | j
lon-xorpeuo WHS uirtxicu uyiuuaw ? | .
rignte lying off New London, and a '
choouer that was moored alongside was 1
lestroyed. Thirty years afterward Robert (
Tulton experimented in New York bar- j
ior with four classes of torpedoes of his !
iwn invention, and in 1813 Col. Samuel I .
.pplied electricity to the ignition of sub- ! j
oarine batteries. During the civil war
orpedoes of American invention were j
ised in the Southern waters, and nine .
ron clads, eleven wooden war vessels .
nd nine transports and steamboats were
lestroyed. The only weapon of this j
:ind which have yet been used by the i
Russians on the Danube are spar torpo- |:
loes, like the on? which Lieut. Cushman i.
>ut under the botiom of the ram Alber- j!
aarle, in Roanoke ;ulet. The man who j
aade that torpedo is the inventor of the j J
mproved engine or war which was ex
libited recently at Cleveland, Ohio. ;
["lie Whitehead torpedo, which is re- j j
[arded* abroad as a marvel of ingenuity, \ ]
3 propelled by compressed air, and can i
lot be controlled after it starts on its i j
ourse. The Lay torpedo boat carries i 1
a its hold its own engine and boiler, ! j
iesides its freight of 100 pounds of dyna- ^
.lite. The engine, the rudder and the |
xploding fuse are uuder the control of
he operator on shore. There are three
evs Dlavino ou the bat erv on shore.
nd these keys start and stop the engine j.
r turn it to port or larboard. The toredo
may bo so arranged as to explode \
y the operation of the keys or by con- |
nssion upon striking any hard object, j
Vnen the torpedo strikes the vossel or
ny other solid substance, a bell is rung |
1 the office on shore, and the dynamite '
lay be exploded or not. Tho velocity 1
liich is claimed for this torpedo seems
larvelous?twelve miles an hour.
The Turkish Arsenal. !
A correspondent who lias visited the j
rsenal on the Golden Horn remarks
la*' it is difficult to comprehend that i
ne is in the chief arsenal of a great na- I
on engaged in a tremendous war when i
ue sees the listlessness and apathy of 1
very one concerned. A few months ago j
lcre were 3,000 people employed there, j
ut their numbers have been reduced to j
,000. Krupp guns, which should j
lontlis ago have been at the Dardanelles
ad on the Bosphorus, are peacefully
[umbering, Bide by side, with other 1
uns looking at them. Several wooden i
risrates and corvettes are being fitted ,
ut, bat the work oil tliera progresses I
ery slowly. A tine iron-clml is in course t
f construction, but it is impossible to 1
redict when she will be finished. In I
Ingland she would require 1,000 or j t
,500 men for six or nine months, but ' *
ie Turks have only about thirty men at ?
-ork on her, and they wander about: c
stlessly, as if the consciousness of their j ^
tter uselessness weighed upon them, i f
rery little material is visible, though ?
iiey are believed to be tolerably well t
applied with it; and the workshops, i
team hammers, and so forth are really 11
ood. .1

Shakespeare and the Queen. e
There is a story afloat in the newspa- ^
ers which is worth repeating. Accordig
to tradition, Shakespeare played the
art of a king with a peculiar grace and .
lajesty. One day when the queen was I
l the theatre, Shakespeare mimicked 1 ?
ayalty so well that Elizabeth, who was ; c
lways ready to have a little fun, whis- I c
ered to her ladies that she would try if 1
tie could not turn this pretended mon- j K
rch into an awkward fellow enough at a i 6
loment's warning. Accordingly, at a t
ritical point in tlie scene, the queen, <
ho was sitting just over the stage, t
liich was then held to be the jdace of 1
onor, let her handkerchief drop at the i
;et. of Shakespeare. Her mischievous f
lajestv expected to see the actor start 6
ad redden and lose his cue. Instead of ! t
;iat he finished his speech with all his j ^
sual power, and without seeming to 11
otice the handkerchief. Then, stooping j c
nd picking it np, he gave it back to the | ?
ueen with a bow. in which there was an : ^
idescribable mixture of dignity and 'r
omage, 6aying, as he did so, these j 3
rods to his train of stage courtiers: i
" But ere wo get tojhorse^and ride away, |1
Let us pick up our Bister's handkerchief." 11
The Woman who was Calm.

When she did get off she abused pede
fcrians, and -was seen to be under tl
influence of spirits.
"Iam just as calm as any one in th
room," she said, as she leaned on tl
railing.
"Ellen Wakefield, I want to ta
with you," replied his honor, as 1
leaned back.
"Go ahead, judge, but don't get e
sited. I'm calm and want to be calr
and I hope this bald-headed man ho
will be calm."
"You refused to pay your fare on tl
car, did you ?"
"Not a refuse, your honor. The co:
Lluctor came along, and when he saw n
lie said: ' Elleu, they say Queen Yi

" What is your occupation, Ellen?"
" I'm a female, sir."
" You may be?you may be, but c
you work at anything ?"
" I'm just as calm as if I was walkii
up First," she answered.
" Do you work at anything ?"
" Ask my husband if I do."
" Then you are a wife and perhaps
mother ?"
"You wouldn't think there was ai
perhaps about it if you saw my sev(

" Over the Graves of Those Who Loved Him.
18 [From the London Times.]
Those novelists who busy their pens
-s with what is called the romance of crime
re will find peculiarly rich materials in the
i- extraordinary trial at Botzen, which we
id have been reporting during the last few
a days, and which ended yesterday in a
t. verdict of willful murder against the
B* prisoner, De Tourville. The story of
*6 that person himself, of his victim, of the
crime for which he has received the senis
tence of death, and of the complicated
process by which liis guilt was brought
home to him, forms a tale which might
'k almost defy embellishment.
ie The murderer, Henri Perran, otherwise
called De Tourville, is a Frenchx_
man by birth and an Englishman by
u, nnfcnralizfttinn TTnt.il the acrft of thirtv
re be seems to have been engaged in the
office of a notary at Valenciennes, but
ie be afterward came to this country and
was called to the bar. He is a man of
a" some accomplishments, as he showed at
ie the trial by fluently defending himself
c" in French, Italian and English. His acT
cusers tried to show that the murder in
ie the Tyrol had not been the first of his
8" crimes. The mother of his first wife,
' it seems, met her death in a very curious
Jd way, a loaded revolver going off and
killing her while he was explaining
the mechanism of the instrument. The
insinuation was that he murdered her in
1C* order to secure for himself the command
or of her daughter's fortune. The death of
his first wife left De Tourville possessed,
it is said, of some ?6,000 a year; and he
next married a widow who had a considerable
amount of property. He is stated
1? to have be. n very anxious to see her will
before the wedding day, but she told
>6 one of her friends that she would rather
" give him up " than satisfy his curiosity.
Nevertheless she so settled her affairs
that, in the event of her death, he
a would get, according to her solicitors,
some ?40,000.
He came to Sponding, in the Tyrol,
3n on the fifteenth of July last year, with
5n Mme. De Tourville and her maid. Next
v'? day he and his wife proceeded in a carriage
toward the Stelvio Pass, after inie
timating that the maid should remain
m behind. Finding in the afternoon that
it was too late to reach tho pass, he determined
to return. Leaving the driver,
ie he and his wife walked back toward a
c* place called Trafoi. The poor woman
in was never more seen alive. Tliree-quaron
lirmi* offai* lio/l nillf.ffln f.VlA I
^ coachman he walked into Trafoi at his
*" usual pace, ami not at all excited. Remarking
that he felt hot, he called for a
glass of 'wine. Being asked by the peopie
of the place where his wife was, he
er replied, "without any sign of anxiety
or sorrow," that she had fallen and hurt
m herself badly, pointing as he spoke to
his temples. His manner was such as to
e* make the bystanders believe that she
m was but slightly hurt. In reply to a
question, he meanwhile told the coachn
man to take two or three persons to
search for Mme. De Tourville, and said
0 that he himself would follow. They
soon came upon the traces of the poor
nt woman. A few ynrds down a bank of
1 stones they found a straw hat and a
?| vest, with a stone lying upon them. The
hat was full of blood. De Tourville,
re when it was shown him, coolly observed
1S" that it was his wife's. Other articles of
ns dress were discovered further down, and
at the very bottom of' the precipice lay
3.n the lifeless body. It was terribly distig118
ured with wounds on the forehead.
a When the men ascended to the road and
told the tale of the discovery to De
Tourville, who was walking up ana down,
|r? he replied: "Dead, indeed;" and lie
8? then offered them first 100 florins, and
then 200, if they would briDg up the
body. But by this time their suspicions
l?e had been excited, and the inspector dej
clined to let it be moved. Nor would
3. they allow him to go back to the place
whence he had set out in the morning
e? until they had searched him.
, His accounts of the calamity were various
and conflicting. To his wife's maid
? he declared that the unfortunate lady
? hlft rolled down the precipice when admiring
the scenery. To the landlady of
m an inn he Baid that, being always self0,3
willed, she had insisted on walking, and
^ that knocking her foot against a stone,
eu she had fallen over the side of the road.
anB An officer of Gendarmerie was inform
i"- ed that she was subject to giddiness,
ie nnd that at a moment when her husband
? was a few steps behind her, she slipped
J. and fell down some distance. On going
down to the spot ho found her leaning
*}" against a tree, shaken and bleeding a
clI little on the forehead, but otherwise not
y much hurt. Leaving her, ho went back
to fetch the carriage. In his formal deposition
he gave a much more elaborate
account of the catastrophe, and this time
1? he deliberately accused her of having
committed suicide. While she was walking
along the road before him, she suddenly,
he said, fell head foremost, and rolled
down a grassy slope. She fell from
about the height of the first story of a
v" house, and, " if she had not had so much
false hair, she would have killed herself
;c* then." Making his way down to her
^ with difficulty, he found her slightly inv
jured, and, after reproaching her with a
3y want of prudence, led her back to the
16 road. Soon afterward she leant against
)n one of the posts on the roadside, and
b- while he was looking round to see
l*" whether he could find help, he suddenly
a* heard the noise of rolling stones behind
him, and presently he saw his wife fallL'?
ing down tb e bank. Again ho went down
l" and helped her up; but this time he
bitterly reproached her for attempting to
^ destroy herself, and she made no reply,
j" He then went to seek for help, after
'J making her swear that she would remain
e* where she was until his return. Iu his
Jy absence, ho maintained, she again fluug
P- herself down the precipice; and, if he
?(1 seemed indifferent when he heard that
10 she was dead, it was because he was suffering
from disease of the heart, which
al forbade him to Indulge in the luxury of!
emotion.
10 Not only is the prisoner's story contra:e
dieted by his other statements, but it is
?" flagrantly inconsistent with his behavior
11 on the evening when his wife"was killed;
ie and, in the opinion of the commission
?e which examined the body, the nature of
the wounds and the appearance of the j
r" scattered articles of dress refuted the
'h statement that she had committed suicide.
S8, Unbiased witnesses declare that she was
in a cheerful Btate before licr deatlu^I^v, J
hearing that her husband had said fine
'y would commit suicide if he left her, she
?" wrote to a friend: "If you hear of my
18 death, you may be sure that I have been
M murdered." The jury have declared, by
^ eleven votes to one, that they believe she
31 was murdered, and the evidence supports
the verdict.
A Sad Illustration of the Hard Times.
a There was an application made recent>n
| ly for employment in the Government
at | printing office by a lady who had been
a raised in affluence, was an excellent
r- musician, aud had mastered several
?r languages. superintendent ueirees,
le somewhat embarrassed by the applica3.
tion, told the lady that he had no work
;e in his office befitting one of her attainid
ments, when with tears in her eyes she
lr said that she was willing to do any menail
id service, even if it were scrubbing the
Lt floors, so that she might earn an honest
fce living. This incident serves to illustrate
i- the amount of poverty and wretchedness
11 in and around Washington.

ie The love of truth is a bow of peace,
in ready for every concussion that is honest,
rs firmVgainst every compromise that is
i, not. It is the noblest stimulus to inu
quiry; ardent to seek, yet patient to ex e
amine; willing to communicate, but
e more willing to receive; contemptnous
e of petty curiosity, but passionate for
knowledge.

Music in the Russian Army.
There is only one band to each 0nrtt
division, and it affords music at intervnls,
but the 'spirits of the men are I wate;
cheered on the way by their own songs, j Tat'
in which they give vent to their en-[then
thusiasm with a good-will and melodious
expression which is quite enlivening, j i
At the heiul of each battalion are three , drpr
drummers, and in the van are generally j JwjJ
a score or more of good singers. First ; ?n di
one strikes up a solo, whose not un- | "*a
pleasant air is listened to in silence, and | g1
then the company in unison and
harmony take up the chorus, the drummers
joining in, while the refrain swells
along the whole line in a manner which
is emphatically warlike and grand.
Sometimes where the musical element is !
strong antl solo singers rare, a soldier I up
with the clarionet plays the solo, then ulfl
all tho others, with the drums, take up
the chorus. The songs are often very
spirit-stirring, and tho heartiness with
which they are renderedtells how deeply Ksi
tho feelings of the men nave bten stirred rettdy
aud the spirit in which they are march- m'"!?
ing to in?et the enemy. This singing is
maintained through the march, and tho 0ure?
