' During the night Reno strengthened li is position, and was prepared for the attack, which- was renewed at daylight. The day wore on."1 Reno bad lost in killed and wounded a large portion of Tl ia mmmanil fjvi ir siAA liavinrr IviAn : killed before . tbe bluff - was reached maay of them in hand-to-hand conflict them ten to one. and his men bad been without water thirty-six hours. The appeals ot the wouraea lor water were, indeed, heartrending, while the others . were almost exhausted, in many in- their mouths,- and few could speak aloud. They tried to eat crackers bat could not moisten them, while the crass blades which some' ate to give relief, elung to their parched lips. Iu this state of affairs they determmed to gain water at all bayards, and Col; Benton made a rally with bis . Company and routed the main portion of tbe Indians who were guarding tbe approacli to tbe river, to wbtctf ffie soiaiera ventured to go with camp kettles and canteens for water, Tlie Indian sharpshooters were nearly opposite the month of the ravise through wbicb tbe brave . boys ap proaebed tbe river, but tbe attempt was made, and though one man was killed ajud seven wounded, the water was gained. ' and . the command relieved. TV 1 sen tbe Sgbtiog ceased for the night, , Reno canoed- bis animals to be likewise rer.eveJ, Rnd further prepared for tbe attack whisht La knew would be re samed on tbe tract morning.

Tom and Boston Custer; bis brother-in-law, Col Calhoun, and ueplW, Col. Yates, Col, Keogh, Capt. Smith, Lieut, Crittenden (son of Gen. Crittenden), Lieut. Sturgis (son ot Gen. Sturgis), Col. Cooke, Lieut. Porter, Lieut. Harrington, Dr. Lord, Mark Kellogg, the Bismarck Tribune re porter (the only correspondent with the expedition), and 190 men and scouts. Custer went into the batt'e with Cos. C, L, 1, F,.and E, of the Seventh cav alry with tlie staff and non-cbmmisMoned staff of bis regiment, and a number of scouts, and only one ,Crow scout re mains to tell the tale. Ouster was surrounded on every side by the Indians, and his men and horses tell as they fought on the skirmish Hue or iu line of battle. Custer was among the last to fall; but when bis cheering voice was no longer heard the Indians made comparatively easy work of the remainder. Tbe bodies of all save the Tribune correspondent were stripped, and most ot. them horribly mutilated. Custer was not mutilated. Ilcwas 6hot through the body and through the head. Kellogg lay iu the field as ho fell, un disturbed. Peihaps even the Indians, who had learned to fear aud respect Custer, had also realized" the power ot lead pencil, and had come to respect those who wield it. The troops cared for the wounded, buried tlie dead, and returned to their base for supplies and instructions from the General of the army. C'l. Smith of Gen. Terry V staff, ar rived last night with dispatches and the wounJed, 35 in number, aside IrOni 13 ! who died on the way on board the Far West, which left the month of the Big Horn. on the morning ot 51 onday, arriv ing here, traveling 90 miles by steamer, iu less than 3G 1 tours. The Indians lost heavily in battle. When Terry reached their village the camp was strewn with robes gaudily painted, with bnely dressed hides and interesting or valuable Indian trinkets. In a burial tent they left nine of their chiefs whose spirits bad rlown to the happy bunting grounds, arrayed most gorgeously. In Che .ravines the dead were abandoned by the Indians, evi dently in their solicitude for the wound ed. There was found the Crow scout, who survived the battle by hiding in a ravine. He believes their loss to have been greater than the less of the whites, for in the battle tliey were .so much more numerous and were the assaulting party after the first day." Col.- Reno and his officers agreed with this etirhate. The village numbered 1,800 lodges,! and many willow tepees had been added j wiuiiu a tew days. It is believed by those who fought that the warriors must have numbered 4,000.- General Terry feels deeply the loss, a.id feels it the more keenly as Gen. Custer was directed to find and feel tlie Indians, but not to fight them, 'nnless Terry arrived with the infantry. With Gibbon's columu be had arranged to reach tlie mouth ot Little Horn on the evening of June 20th, when Custer was to communicate with him and be gov erned by bis directions in the fight to follow. Custer made the attack on the 25th, and aftei one hour's fighting, no man of those who fought so gallantly was left to tell the story. Gen erry has submitted, through Col. Smith, bis plan of campaign to Gen. Sheridan, and the action to be taken will depend on the answer given. . Meanwhile Terry will await supplies, provisions and cloth ing, of which his command are nearly destitute. The names of all the officers killed or wounded have been given. Tbe casualties foot up 261 killed and 52 wounded. Thirty-eight of the wounded were brought to Fovt Lincoln, and the remainder, .excepting the three who died, were cared for on iho field. Charley- Reynolds was W killed. Reynolds, with Kellogg, DcWoit, Reed, Boston Cn ter and Lord were the only citizens killed T IS! reding r the Nose. There are two little arteries which supply the whole face with bliod, one on each side; these branch off from the rnain arteries on each 6ide of the wind pipe, and rtfnni-g upwards toward the eyes, and pass over the out-side of the jawbone, about two-thirds of tbe 'way back from tlie chin to the angle of the jaw, under tbe ear. Each of these ar teries, of course, supplies just one-half of the face, the nose being tlie dividing line; tbe left nostril is supplied, with blood by the right artery. Now, sup--poso your nose bleeds by the right, with the edge ot the forefinger feel along the outer edgo of the right jaw until yon feel the beating ot the artery directly under your finger, the same as the pul e in your wrist, then press the finger hard upon it, thus getting the little fellow in ar tigfit place between your finger ; and jawbone; tbe result will be that not a drop of blood : goes into that side of your face- while the pressure continues; hence the nose instantly slope bleeding for want ot blood to flow; continue the pressure bve or ten minutes, and then the raptured vessels in the nose will by that time probably contract so that when you let the blood into them they will not leak. Bleeding from a cut or wound any place a'oout the face may be stopped in the same way. Tbe- creator probably placed these arteries as they are that they might be controlled. Those to the back of the head, arms, and legs are all arranged very- conveniently ; tor being controlled in like' manner.

Yes, Tatlier pretty, but perfectly heartless!" said smiling Mrs. Holmes to Dr Stanly, a. young physi cian with whom she was conversing at a large and brilliant entertainment. "Heartless! with that sensitive mouth, and those eyes, so deep and full 'of ex pression ?" said the physician musingly. "I don't admire her style of beauty nt all. She looks like a wax doll, and her heartlessnesR is proverbial. Since ber uncle left her so wealthy, sl'.o lias had suitors by the - score, - and flirts with every one." ' She was .conversing gayly, with a knot of gentlemen; and Dr. Stanly sauntered over toward the group. ''Miss Marston," faid one gentleman, "what has become of Harold Graham, the artt V" The tiny hand swept over the keys of the grand piano, in the measure ot a waltz; and another of the group, sup posing Miss Marston did not hear the question sid : -"f ' ;-V ; I -- "Out at elbows, and can't' sppear." 1 "He was wretchedly poor," said a third, t - y' ; "-.-.

It wo'nld be too provoking for him to commit suicide!" " Tlie next moi niug M iss Marston sat in her own" room, writing a. letter. Let us ieep over ber shoulder, at one sen tence: . "All hollow, all heartless, Miriam! You b'ame me for flirting; you are" not hero to see bow they follow me merely for my nionev; not one true heart among them all. There was one, Har old ;., . A Khocfe at the door interrupted her. "Come in," said Eva, pleasantly. "llow is Jerrence this morning ? "Oh, miss it's beautiful, he is to-day! I'm sorry yon had to wait so long for the needlework." . ; 1 "Never mind that. How could you work with the little fellow so ill V" 'I Well, ;miss, it's many a one expects their work, sick or well; and isn't Jim my sitting up playing with the toys you sent him, and Pat, that I kept home from school to mind him "How much, Mary ?" 6aid Eva, tak ing out her pprse. "Oh, miss, you don't owe Mary Gin nis a farthing. There's the doctor you left the ' money to pay aud the wood you sent and the potatoes and milk and- the money you gave me last week; indeed, miss, it's in your debt I am for the rest of your life." "What I gave Terrence has nothing to do with my bill," said Eva rapidly counting put some money. "Miss Eva," said the poor needle woman and then stopped. i "Well, Mary?" "Indeed, miss, yon do so mucbgood with your money, Pin ashamed to fell yon " "Tell me what?" ' "Well, miss, it's about the young gent'ematt that rented my room. You know where the widow died last antnmn. He came a week back, miss, and he never came down stairs for three days; so this morning I went uj ad he's sick with a lever, uut of his head en tirely, miss. v If yon would come now." "Wait, Mary, I'll go wth you.": "lie's dreadful poor, 1 think, miss; for it's precious little furniture nothing but a bed aud a table and a chair, and no trunk, but a bit of a carpet bag." Throwing off her rich silk wrapper, Eva put on a dark dress and cloak, and added a close silk bonnet with a thick veil. "' "" '"' "Come Mary!" and the two left the house together. ' In a low, close room , on a pallet bed , lay Mary Gennis' lodger. The face, against the coarse ticking pillow, was such as one fancies for that of his favor ite piet. -The"' hair was dark, waving wer a broad, white forehead, and the deep set eyes were hazel, large and Cu'.l, and the features delicate. Usually the face was pale, but now it wa crimson with fever. The eyes, too, fierce and wild. But, even with all , this, it was beautiful with '.almost unearthly beanty. Into that poor, low room, Eva, with her sombre drexs and radiant beauty, came like a pitying angel. She gave one glance at the invalid's face, and then crossed the room to his side. , "Eva!" said the sick man: "Eva!" "He kuows me," she said drawing back..-- : - : ' But the young man moaned her name again, and then broke -forth into wild, delirious ravings. ... - "Mary," said Eva, "send your boy to me. I will find pencil and paper.'? Mary left the room, and Eva turned to the table to find pencil and paper. She wrote two hasty notes. One was to ber housekeeper for , pillows and sheets The other was to Dr. Stanly, who did not conjecture who ; was the friend that sent htm so much practice among poor patients, and say that the young physician was well paid. Having dispatched' the notes, Eva tried to make the desolate room more homelike,,. Lifting from ' the table a waistcoat, something dropped from the pocket to the floor. "She picked it up. It was a small miniature case open and painted on the ivory was Miss Marston's face. . - ' A smile, gentle and pitying, came on ber lip. ; t "He did love me, then- really loved me and would not seek me with the herd of fortune-hunters who followed me and that is. the reason I have missed him so long." s u . The next day when Dr. Stanly called to see his patient, Mary, with a pardon, able pride, ushered him into the room that bad been vacant before. A soft carpet was on the floor and a. fire in the graie. j sort muslin curtain, snowy wniie, arapea the wwdo.v. The bed could searcely be recognized, with its pure white pillows, counterpane and sheets. A little table stood beside the bed'' with the medicines the doctor had ordered, and a decanter of coolingdrink. "The lady I told you of, that sent yon to Terry, did this," said Mary. f We arranged the room yesterday, and my good man and I moved him in to day; so ehe'H find hirer here when she comes. It's asleep he has been for bet ter than three hours, sir." Two hours later Harold was still asleep, but when be opened bis eyes, the cold cheerless room was changed, as if by : enchantment; and (Harold thought, bo was dreaming) an angel face bent over him, with pitying eyes, and a smile as tender as a mother's over her child. - -? ' "Evaf he, whispered, "Ob , tht I could die in such a .dream, and never awake to the bitter, hopeless love! Let me die now!" v ; - C Was it a dream that sweet low voice ai.swering him? 'Harold,'you will not die! you . wilt live for me! Your genius, shall bo rec ognized, your pictures sought. ' No more struggling tor life, but only for fame!" and tears fell as she spoke. Dr. Stanly, standing in the doorway, recognized the ballroom belle, and the object of his friend's long, silent, hopeless love. : - , ---' 1 -: :." . Softly he glided down tbe stairs, for he knew that a better medicine than he con hi prescribe was within the patient's grasp. . And the world said: "Justlhink of Eva Marston, rich and such a bel'e, marrying Harold Graham, the artist, who was poor as a church mouse!" CHARACTEKISTie OF THE CRAFT. It' is rarefy that a poor person will refuse a proffered reward for the return of lost property. Some time ago a gentleman of this city dropped from bis pocket au envelope containing twenty-two hun dred dollars in bank-notes. He adver tised Iiis loss, and on the following day the snrfr was returned to him by a young compositor in or.fi of the city printing offices. The money was found on Dock street, near Third, and a num ber ot vehicles had run over the envel ope, which was cut and the notes ex jtosed to view. The gentleman at once effered the young mau the liberal reward of two hundreds dollars, whidh ho re fused to take. He then banded him his valuable gold watch and chain, which he also , refused, t He then prof fered an order for the finest strit of clothing a fashionable tailor Could make. This' was, rejected Finally he pre vailed upon him to state What reward he would accept for his honesty, and was surprised to hear hat the considered "five dollars for a Fourth of July spree" quite sufficient remuneration. It was well, perhaps, for the finderthat he did not accept a larger sum to throw away iu dissipation. . -'":'. A poor man who had a large family broko his leg. and as ho would be for some time destitute of the means of grace, it was proposed to hold a prayer meeting at his house. The meeting was led by Dea. Brown. A loud knock at the door interrupted the service. A tall, lank, bine frocked yonngsicr stood ai the door with no ox goad in his hand, and asked to see Dea Brown. ''Father could not attend this meeting," he said, "but he sen bis prayers, and they are out iu the cart." They were brought in, in the shape ot potatoes, beef, pork and corn.- The meeting' broke np with out the benediction. NKCR.VLfilA of the Face. Men are less subject to this painful complaint than are women, owhia, without doubt, to the reason that they cover theit heads better while in the open air. It may be observed that the surface ot the head which is actually covered in man is at least three times that which fashion allows to woman. Indeed the points of contact letween the hat or bonnet and the head in the latter are so irregular as to practically destroy any protection that otherwise might be af forded. A celi'bration was held at Xapavine station on the "N. P. railroad on the Fourth. Dr. C. 0. Pagelt delivered the oration, : which . was pronounced - very good.

A Prolonged Fast. . Consiperablc. curiosity and wonder nave been evoked at (Julcheth, a village about three miles from Leigh, by the statement that a fasting girl, who bad not spoken for about tour and a half years, hivd recovered 5 her accustomed power of speech. The following aro the leading points in the extraordinary affair: Five years ago Ellen Sud worth, then a girl of eleyen years of age, daugh ter of William Sud worth, shoemaker, .was taken jll, and soon after ' confined to bed, when she ceased takjng any food, and in a few months gradually lost her voice. From that time until receutly she remained - speechless," her parents, who are respectable" working people, believing their daughter bad become absolutely dumb. ; -: ' 5 Prior to-the recovery of her voice 6he bad been unable to open her eyes so state ber parents for at least ten weeks; and the girl s one statement is and in this also she is partly confirmed by tbe hMwrtes ot tlie bouse that the recovery ot her speech and the strength to open her eyes were preceded by a shock ia the head, which was followed by Weed ing from tlie eyes aud nostriles, During the girl's long illness it is affirmed that she has partaken ot no solid food, all the nourishment she had being from the moistening of her lips with wine, brandy, etc " Frequently strangers believed her to be -dead, as breathing was alb im perceptible, though she affirms that she never, during the four 3'ears and upward, once lost a perfect consciousness of what transpired around her. - TLe case has excited a great deal of attention. Dr. Scphton, a physician of Culcheth, has attended at various times upon this fasting girl, and so far as be lias been able to arrive at the conclusion, he believes tlie case to be one of hysteria.
