an end 10 the scene Srizing his antagonist by

Of his huniing shirt, he threw h.m the fence

Francisco was powerful bull, man, standing

woman OF good size, and fair proportions, he would
take her in his right hand and holding her out at
arms length would pass around the room with
her and carry her up and down stairs in that po.
slon. He would take barrel Of cider by the
chimes, and holding it TO his mouth, would drink
from the bung long and hearty draught, without
arv apparent exertion.
YET, with all his strength. he was very pea.
ceably disposed man, and never made use of his
power except in case OF necessity, about his usu
al voca,ions, or 10 defence OF the right. On oc-
casions Of outbreaks at public gatherings he was
better at rushing in and preserving the public
peace, than all the conservative authorizes on the
ground. Although uneducated, he was man Of
strong natural sense, and of kind, amiable dis.
position. He was, whal, comPan ionable man,
and his anecdotes and stories Of the war; Of which
he possessed rich fund. rendered him welcome
guest in the first families of the State. His indus.
trious and temperate habits, together with his kind
disposition, made him many friends, and through
their in fluence he was appointed Sergant-at-Arms
of the Virginia House of Delegates, IN which SER
vice he died, in 1896. and was buried with mill
tary honors in the public burying ground at Rich

1t Is certa'n tl"t these interesting relics have been
preserved with great care by those who have pos
sessed them, and we feel assured that they are
nov in hands where they are fully appreciated,
and will be taken Of until the next genera.
uon shall claim their keeping. These instruments
were used by Gen. Washington in l749, when ne
was IL years of age. They were carefully pre-
served by the General, and at his death IN 1892
they descended to his Oldest nephewond executor,
Colonel William Augustine Washington, Of Hay
wood, WestmOreIand county, Va, at whose death
in lsn6. they descended 40 his son. Cal-Gan-se
G. Washington, of Maryland, by whom they werc
presented, February 10. 1854, 10 his son, Lewis
w. Washington, of Belle Air, Jefferson county,
Va.
These relics have been in Maryland since 1910.
and are again returned TO Virginia, where their
first polish was worn off 100 years since. They
certainly must be looked upon as The most inter-
esiing memenIos connected with the early history
Of Washington. Each year adds an additional
interest 10 these relics, and in time they certainly
must be looked upon as the rarest curlosies con-
nccted with tho early history Of our country, and
particularly with respect TO him who was so Just
y sly led " he Father Of his country"
Mr.. Washington also kindly showed US many
letters from the Generals brothers, nePhews.

therefore has in his possession much that is inter.

and also the confidential correspondence of tho
distinguished men Of the days Of the Revolution
with General Washington, on subjects Of peculiar
interest.
We have been thus particular with references
to our notes Of dates and facts connected with
these interesting relics, they are matters deep.

The world is full Of mysteries. The chamber
in which the infant opens lis eyes is universe
Of mysteries The fathers voice, the mothers
smile reveal to il slowly the mysterious world oi
the affections. The child solves many of these
mysteries, but as the circle ol knowledge Is en-.
larged, its vision is ALWAYS bounded by wall OF
mystery. The sun that wakens il at morning and
again at night looks into its window 10 bid il fare
wcI-the tree that shades its home, and into
whose branches he birds come and sing before
the dews dry-the cloud with shining edges
that moves across the sky, calm and stately llko
the chariot Of an angel-aIl are mysteries. Nay
to the grown up man there is not thing which
the hand touches, which the eye rests, which
is not enveloPed in mystery. The flower that
springs at my foot--who has revealed the won
derful secret Of its organization2 Its roots shoot
down, and leaf and flower rise up and expand into
the abyss of mystery. We like emgrants
travelling through an unknown wilderness. They
step at night by stream OF water, they tether
their horses and set up their tent and build a fire.
AS The flames rise up, and within The circle OF q
few rods around, distinct and clear, into its light,
Bu beyond and bounding this, rocks dinIiy seen
aud trees with vague outline stoop forward to tho
blaze; and beyond, the branches creak, and The
waters murmur over their bed and wild and un'
known animals bowl in the dark realm Of night
and silence. Such is the light OF mans knowl.
edge. and it is bounded by the infinite realm Of
mystery.
The world then is full Of mysteries. Blu! so isr
as religion concerned it has changed most I'm.
happily, that men have made articles Of faith out
of mysteries, made them the most important nrll-
cIes and looked on religion rs if its main purpose
were 10 introduce mysteries into the world From
these things have risen very much Of the idle the
ology, and many OF the miserable disputes that
have disgraced Christendom. That which is The
most important fact practically IN this subject is
this viz.-hat there are less mysteries in Ihc world
now, than there were before Christianity.
