j The Citadel I Of Troyes/ O A WAR STORY OF FRENCH $ ? AND COSSACK. ?jj Thc disastrous campaign of 1814 v?a? drawing to a clase. Tho allied forces covered France #ko a cloud of locusts, and tl. J wild Cossack who fia J marched from tho banks of tho fjoryfthpnes was Boon" to slake his courser'! thirst iii the gaters of the Seiuc. Napoleon* was winning des perate victories against terrific mids, hut tho sun of Austerlitz was doomed to a near and total eclipse. Thc Russians had gained posses sion of tho city of Troyes, and with out its walls they lay encamped ia overwhelming numbers. The troops of t he French emperor, too few and feeble to contend against such crushing odds, had disbanded, yet thc remnant of a heroic band, lay ing aside their uniforms, still lurked ?bout thc city, sleeping and feeding wiicre they could, tho holder of thom seeking every opportunity to pick quarrels with tho Eussions and engage them in duels, glutting that hale io singlo combat which they could uo longer slake upon the field of battle. . Among these dangerous and in veterate enemies . of the Cossacks was a certain Caesar Pompon, a ser geant of tho Imperial guard, who ?ougcd at a uf?le inn. kept by a lit tle black eyed Frenchwoman who liad made the campaign of Russia and lost her husband, a one eyed voltiguer, in the passage of the Be rezina. t Fanchette would willingly have married the sergeant and even offer ed herself to that valiant warrior, but he would hear of .no such ar rangement till peace hod been re stored to his distracted country. Another inmate of Fanchette's lit tle hostelry was a Captain Bonville, wi io was waiting for better days and an opportunity to strike a blow Fanchette did an.excellent business, having no scruples about selling beer, brandy, tallow candies, lamp oil and other refreshments to the Cossacks, but she never gave them credit, and they dreaded her sharp tongue almost as much as they did thc thongs of tho knout. Sergeant Pompon was very regu lar in Iiis habits, but ho would often absent himself for hours together without telling either Fanchette or Captain Bonville where he was go ing When he caine back after one of these mysterious absences, ho would generally bring with him a bundle and, saying "That makes so many," make a chalk mark on the score he Icept behind the bar. After this ceremony ho would march up and deposit his bundle'in bis little attic room, of which he kept the key, for he took care of it himo?lf and let no one enter. Fanchette often teased him about these mysterious proceedings, and his invariable answer was: 'Tanchette, when this is all over and the cursed Cossacks are driven out of the country and thc Little Corporal is firmly established on the throne and you'and.-I ..are mar ried I am going to Paris to set up a ready made clothing shop, ana I shall have a stock in trade on hand." His fair hostess was forced to be content with this explanation. One nigh ir when Fanchette had closed her doors and was sitting with Captain Bonville talking over the events of the campaign and the prospect before them Sergeant Pompon entered in a state of great excitement and, dashing his hat up on the floor, marched to and fro with enormous strides. "What is tho matter ?" exclaimed Fanchette. . < ?. "Matter 1 A thousand bayonets! Matter enough I Bombshells abd rockets I In a French town 1 In a French cafej Millie .ts. of ?'clocks!" "Any ill news from the emper or f" asked Captain Bonville. "No, no, captain," answered Pom pon; "ho is beating the villains in ejery engagement and fighting his Way step by step to Troyes. Saper Iptee! We shall soon hear bis guns, * hope, and then he'll lead these Cossacks an infernal dance, the murderous villains I" \ "Well, something haa Lsppened, * know," said Fanchette. "Of course it has,"'replied, the sargeant, sitting down and wiping ?us brow.* "You know, captain;-the vafe de la Victoire?" "CcrUinly. It is a cafe theater; they act little vaudevilles there in toe refreshment saloon to attract and amuse customers." "Precisely. Very well, capaun, ??ey played a piece there thia even ing called The Soldier'a Return/ ia it Bressant-a capital actor and * good fellow, t?o-had to sing a TKse against the Russians, and the room was filled with them.

"I know vou'd say so!" crk-d tho ?Sergeant. <*Hurrahl Vive l'empe reurl" ! "Hueh!" said Fanchette. "The patrol is marching by." j "Wno earea for them?" cried the sergeant. "Fanchette, I brought home another bundle today. That makes ten." j "Ten what?" "Ten bundles," said the sergeant, ! with a wink. "Ask me no questions, and I'll tell von no lies. Well, cap tain?" " - "Well, sergeant, what are you thinking of ?" "Tomorrow night and tho Cafe de la Victoire." "So was I. We will warn all of our fellows tomorrow. Let them go armed, and we'll put Bressunt through, whatever comes of it." "Good." flnid the sergeant, rising and taking up his bed candle. "I'll ! oil my pistols before I go to bed. I And if we don't meet again, cap I tain, thc rendezvous will bo tho Cafe j de la Victoire, the hour sharp 7. Good night, captain." "Good night, sergeant." "Pleasant dreams," cried Fan chette. . The next night the saloon of the Cafe do la Victoire was crowded with Russian and French soldiers, the latter dressed as citizens, with Bwords and pistols concealed under their blouses. There was a great consumption of brandy among the Cossacks, and thc waiters who sup Plied their calls looked anxious and lurried. They evidently expected trouble, nor were their forebodings deceptive. The curtain was rung up and thc piece commenced. When Bressant, tho offendb ? rec tor, appeared, there were murmura among the Russians, but these were drowned in the applauding shouts of the French spectators, and one or two bouquets were thrown at his feet. The play, however, was suffer ed to go on till the finale was sung, and when the orchestra played the symphony for this piece the audi ence sat perfectly motionless and silent. It was the lull that precedes the hurricane. Bressant advanced fearlessly to the footlights and com menced the obnoxious verse. Theu rose a storm and howl of groans and hisses mingled with applause. Colonel Ostrogoff, a gigantic Rus sian, rose in his place and addressee the actor: ."French dog," said he, "apolo gizc for tho insult you have offeree us!" "Never!" replied the actor. "J sing what is set down for me, and ] will apologize to no living man foi doing my duty." Quick as a flash thc Russian drev a pistol from his belt and fired i tull in the face of Bressant, who fel without a groan. "Revenge!" shouted Bonville throwing off. his blouse and disclos ing his artillery uniform. "Up Frenchmen, and down with the Cos sacks!" A terrible struggle ensued. Fifi tols and knives were freely used Frenchmen and Cossacks grappled The tables were overturned,- th lights were put-out, the most dir confusion prevailed. The combat ants fought their way out into th street and there continued the dead ly encounter. But it was not of lon duration. The firing and erie brought down a ra-enforcemen from the Russian camp. A troop of Cossacks dashed int the melee and dispersed the feebl band of Frenchmen, killing some c them, while Captain Bonville, th ringleader, remained a prisoner i the nanda of .Ostrogoff. I The next day was an eventful on for Troyes. Intelligence was brougt into camp by scouts that Nap oleo was approaching. As the day woi on heavy firing was heard gradua ly drawing near tho town. It wi reported by fugitives that tl French had utterly routed their oj ponents and wero moving on at rapid rate,* flushed with victory, t tho relief of Troyes. All was confusion in tho Russia camp. A brief period of idlenes consumed in unbridled debaucher, had demoralized and weakened tl Cossack force, and the officers ca eula ted with, concern the chances < a conflict. Still tho prisoner, Bo* ville, was not overlooked in tl midst of this crisis. During tl forenoon he was examined beforo military tribunal, a mero form, e totted by his rank, and sentenced 1 be shot. At the very moment 1 listened to his sentence, with u: moved countenance, the rattle < musketry wa? heard near at han : as the French skirmishers drove i the enemy's pickets. "Ton hear that?" said Bonvill with a smile, to the Russian cot mander. "I shall die, but I shall 1 avenged." " v "Take him away, Colonel Ostr golf/' said the Russian genen *Take a file of men with you ai execute the sentence.". Ostrogoff saluted and v/ithdrc with an escort. In spite of his pr testations, BonviUeV arms wa bound tightly behind him, "He shan't have a ghost of chance to escape in the confusion muttered Gairogon. The little party reached an ope ing in the dense wood and halte A few moments afterward an ai dc-camp galloped up furiously. "I am ordered to. recall your f ing party, colonel," said he. "Th are wanted, to defend the intrenc menta. The French dogs are pre! ingus hard." The platoon marched off, and C troscS and Bonville wera left abs T?e ronner drew ^ p?alol from his bell and cooked it. "Aro you going io turn execu- * tioner?" said Bonville scornfully. "It is worthy of you. You aro fit ter for a hangman than a soldier." "I ahot ono of your countrymen last night for less provocation," answered the Russian, raising his pistol. But ot this moment a small party of Russian soldiers advanced to tho spot under the command of j a noncommissioned officer. "Halt!" cried tho colonel. Thc platoon obeyed. - "Are you loaded?" The sergeant nodded. "Then shoot this fellow." Thc platoon faced the prisoner,-; wjkth ? their backs on Ostrogoff. "Ready-present-fire!" ?aid the Russian. At thc word "Fire!" the platoon wheeled to the ri gi it about and. poured their volley into Ostrogoff j at ten paces! He fell riddled with bullets. ' "Hurrah!" cried Sergeant Pom pon, for it was bc, pulling off his falso beard and rushing to cut flic cords that bound Captain Bonville. "Hurrah for our side! Captain, my secret is out. Tho bundles I used to fetch home each contained a Rus sian uniform. They were tho spoils I of fellows I killed in fair fight. I I never thought I should make such a good use of them." . Bonville threw himself into tho faithful fellow's arms. "No time for hugging now 1" cried the sergeant, extricating himself from the embrace of his officer. "Take this saber and como along with us. We aro beating them at all points, biit we haven't quite finish ed them yet. There's a little glory left, though we're late in the day. Long live the emperor and down with the Cossacks! The sergeant's predictions were correct, and before nightfall tho French colors waved over the cita del of Troyes.-New York News. BILLY EDWARDS* WAY. Billy Edwards, thc one timo light weight champion pugilist, had a long and peaceful reign as house detective at tho Hoffman House in New York. Ho had the smoothest, pleasantest way imaginable ol get ting rid of objectionable persons. His reputation as a great fighter was so well known that he simply would not strike an ordinary mau. Tho writer saw a well dressed young negro begin to raise a dis turbance at the Hoffman bar ono night beeauso ho could not get any thing to drink. Billy Edwards pushed his way through the crowd and encountered him as if by accident. "Oh, Mr. Morgan, how do you do ?" said Billy, extending his hand. "This is a great pleasure. I haven't seen you in years. You must join me in a little drink. Let's sit down at our ease." The negro looked puzzled, put away a roll of bills he had been flourishing, hooked his hand inside of the arm Edwards offered and tod dled away in silence. Alf OLD CUSTOM. Once upon a time Charle? VI of France gave a masquerade ball, and he and five courtiers took the part of satyrs. Tb do this artistically they were clothed in loose linen habits, besmeared with rosin and then stuck all over with down. One of thc company, in a frolic, lighted one of the satyrs with a torch, and in consequence four, of them were burned to death. .This is supposed to be the origin of the tar and feath er custom. y BRIDLES. Bridles were in use in very dis tant ages. Ancient Thessalien coins often represent a horse with a long rein touching tho ground. The young Romans were trained to ri?o and mount unassisted, but the use of the bridle was knowii from the first. According to Livy, Aulus Cornelius in a battle with the Fi denao ordered tho Roman cavalry to unbridle before charging, proba bly to give them more freight CASTOR IA For Infants and Children, Tis Kind You Hm Always Basgh! a'?nature of ^2^^$f^^^g - A youth lately leaving his aunt's house after a visit, when finding it be gan to rain, caught up au umbrella, that was snugly placed in a corner, and was proceeding to open it, wheo the old lady, who for the first time ob served his movements, sprang toward him, exclaiming: "No, no, that you nover shall!

"WASHINGTON, April 10.-Secretary Wilsou has decided to send ont au ex pert to scour tho rico growing c-ouu trics of tho world and thoroughly in vestigate importaut ?nat Lu rs connected with the industry. This mission, which is t stretch into thc civilized and uncivilized parts of the world, probably will be entrusted to Prof. Knapp, of Louisiana, who returned about a year ago-from an official trip of in.vestigatLoa in the orient. Thc start will be made about next July. It is proposed to hunt out the rice growius countries, ascertain what they feed both to the beef animals and the \ work teams, what rice can be grown on highland that cannot be irrigated, what legumes eau be used for for age for animals, used in the rice in dustry and a host of other kindred questions. Great SUOOOBB in rice growing ?6 re ported in the rico fields along tho gulf coast of Louisiana and Texas, and Seorctary Wilson predicts that a year henoe will witness tho production in the United States of all the rico re quired within thc country. The rice consumption per capita will increase very materially, he says. Tho United States is now exporting red rice and other secoud-class rice, which makos excellent food, to Puerto Rico. There is a good market for it there, although the second-class rico heretofore had been fed to animals or sold to brew ers. Secretary Wilson believes that thc future will find this country in thc first rank of rice growing oouulrics and the coming mission to thc oast with a view to gathering information on thc whole subject is expected to yield good results. - Colorado's one woman legislator, Evangeline Hears, does not negleot honse-keeping for law-making.
