Touching Incident of the War.

After the battle at Bean Station.
East Tennessee, the rebels were guilty
of all manner of indignity toward the
slain. They stripped their bodies and
shot all persons who came near the
battle field TO show any attention to
the dead. The body of little drum
mer boy was left naked and exposed.
Near by in a humble house, there were
two little girls, the eldest but sixteen,
who resolved to give the body decent
burial. They took the night for their
task. With hammer and nails in
hand, and boards on their shoulders,
they sought the place where the dead
drummer boy lay. From their own
scanty wardrobe, they clothed the
body for the grave. With their own
hands they made the rude coffin, into
which they reverently put the dead
boy. They dug the grave and lower
ed the body into it and covered il over.
The noise of the hammering brought
some OF the rebels TO the spot. The
sight was too much for them. The
stiffness OF the Right-the story SO
eloquently told 10y the heroic labors
OF the girls. Not word was spoken.
no one interfered, and when the sacred
rites of burial were performed, all
separated, and the little drummer boy
sleeps nndisturbed in his grave on the
battle field. Such tenderness and he.
roism deserves to run along the line

A REMARKABLE ROY

We had the pleasure, yesterday, of
an interview with a remarkable boy.
His name is Dudley Walter. His MEM
DRY, Is prodigious. Although only
eight years of age, he can recite over
live hundred pieces while he can re-
peat, verbatim, lecture or sermon
which be has heard but once. Nor
does he seem less singularly endowed
with regard TO the other mental facul.
ties. lie Is natural orator. and re-
cites the most difficult pieces, both
prose and poetry, with wonderful cor
rectness and dramatic effect. He has
an unsuitable thirst for knowledge
reads everything-remembers every.
thlng-and grasps the most difficult
thought with the strength of mental
athlete. His powers of observation
ar are striking. Nothing escapes him.
There is nothing morbid about him.
lie has splendid physique is full
OF tun and frolic, and makes everybody
who sees him love him. He is en-.
tirely self-taught. He was an orphan
from infancy, was brought up by a
friend OF his mother, in humble circum-
stances, from whom he learned his
letters. All his subsequent education
he got himself He does not rank
among those abnormal beings called
prodigles-he is something higher and
better No one can see him without
becoming impressed with the idea that
he Is remarkably but BEAUTIFULLY gift.

BEAUTIFUL SWISS CUSTOM.

The horn of the Alps is employed in
the mountainous districts of Switzer-
land, not solely to sound the cow.call
{ kuhreibu Rauzdes Vachos), but for
another purpose, solemn aud religious.
As soon as the sun has disappeared in
the valleys and its last rays are just
glimmering on the summit of the
mountains, then the herdsman who
dwells on the loftiest part takes his
horn and trumpets forth, Praise God
the Lord All the hcrdsmen in the
neighborhood. on hearing this, come
out Of their huts, take their horns, and
repeat the words. This often contin-
ues a quarter of an hour, whilst on all
sides the mountains echo the name of
God. 4 profound and solemn silence
follows; every individual offers his
secret prayer, on bended knees and
with uncovered head. BY this time it
is quite dark "Good night !. trum.
pets forth the herd on the loftiest sum-
init. Good night ~ is repeated on
all the mountains from the horns of
the herds and the clefts of the rocks.
Then each one lays himself down to
rest.

POWER OF CHRISTIANITY.

A mechanic in London, who rented
a room very near the Orphan Work
ing School, was unhappily a deter
mined infidel--a disciple of the notori-
ous unbeliever who could confound
many thoughtless Christian with his
sophistrics on religion. This man said
TO an individual one day, II did this
mornig what have not done for
long time before-I wept." "Wept,"
said his friend, what occasioned
you to weep?" Why" replied the
infidel mechanic. al wept on seeing
the children of the Orphan Working
School pass and it occurred to me,
that if religion had done nothing more
for mankind. it had at least provided
for the introduction Of these ninety
four orphans into respectable aud
honorable situations in life."

CO having recently surrendered to the
United States forces, the proper au-
thorities have asked Congress for an
appropriation of 100000 with which
to procure them agricultural imple-
ments aud subsistence until they can
support themselves on the reservation
set apart for their colonization. The
Navajoes have been at-war for nearly
two centuries, and the peaceful plan
now proposed is deemed more econom-
lcal than the large war expenditures
heretofore incurred in New Mexico.
They number about 1000.
