GENERAL QUITMAN's SERVANT.
HERO

The NatcheZ Courier, in recording the mar
rage of Henry Nichols, cofored man be-
longing 10 General John A. Quitman, 10 one Of
his masters female servants, few days ago,
says: - -'
Henry Nichols, by the name and style of
Harry has been the faithful and confding
body-servant of the General for eighteen years.
Through exultation and depression, victory
and defeat, sunshine and storm, Harry has
ever been present, and faithful to execute the
mandate of his master. He has made the tour
of the United States and the Canadas, and
when the infant Republic of Texas was strug-
Cling for place among the stars and stripes,
he accompanied his master, who was then
Captain Qutman, through these perilous
scenes, and while walking over the battle
ground OF San Jacinto, looking very sad at
the sight of the numerous dead, his master
asked him what he was thinking about. He
replied that he was thinking what fools these
yellow men were for fighting with white folks.
But it was reserved for Harry to illustrate the
annals of his race at the storming of Monte
rev, for it will be reeollected that General
Quitman had the charge of the brave Missis-
sippians and Tennesseans. and was in the hot
test and thickest of the fight, having several
horses shot from under him, the places OF
which were Immediately supplied by Harry,
although he had to make his way to his mas
ter through grape and canister. But to crown
the enchantment of the scene, when the gal
liant William O. Butler fell wounded, Harry
Immediately rushed to his rescue, and carried
him off the field. While conveying the Gen.
eral from the field, he inquired after his mas.
ter, General Butler told him he feared he would
never see him alive, as he was in the mos
dangerous position when he saw him last
Harry replied, with that deep seated feeling Of
the faithful servant: Don't you believe that,
General, master was not born to be killed by
them .mulatto rascals 70 When Gen. Quitman
was ordered to the conquering column of Scott,
he carried Harry with him, who was side by
side with him at the bomhardment and storm
ing OF Chepultepec on the 18th and 14th. and
the deadly conflict of the Garita de Belen, and
finally, his triumphant entry into the city and
palace of the Montezumas Harry was tbs
first Anglo African in the Halls He is known
by The entire army, and greatly respected by
the officers and men, as the humble, faithful
and honest servant. who viii be glad to see
this notice of him.

} The Way to Tend Raby-The Chippewa
Indian, Ia noble looking man, by the way.)
who lectured at the City Hall last evening. ad-
vised the ladies of Hartford to tie their babies,
as soon as born, to board, bind them down
tight, and keep them there most OF the time
till they are ten months DID, Put hoop a.
round the head" he says, and when the
board gets knocked over. it won't break the
child's nose.' He sums up other advantages
as follows: /" you see ladies holding up spe-
cimen, the child's hands are tied down, so it
can't scratch its own eyes out, and can't scratch
its mothers breast, too it can't wriggle about
and get very tired; it can't bend over. and
must grow straight ;--when the mother goes
out after herds, she can hang It on tree, and
snakes can't bite it when it cries, the mother
can swing it across her back, and rock it So
swaying its body TO and fro-and can carry it
a great distance in this manner, too; can sit it
up side of the wigwam very handy and when
canoe turns over, the child swims off on the
board, and don't drown !; and its back don'1
break across his mothers arm, because the
board supports it; the child can't crawl into
the fire and burn up. too-ean leave it long
time. all safe-so think this much best way,
ladies--much best ~ bias -.I gate "a
The ladies gave their assent by general
laugh.--Hartford Times zssze sesa e. - ss.a
