An Unknown Woman.
lPfom The Nashville Ptessl

Following the winding railroad from Tren-
ton to Chattanooga, the traveller finds him
self running suddenly around the base Of
Lookout Mountain; on bis right Is per-
pendicular bluff, and away down on the left
murmur the waters of the beautiful Tonnes
see. 1t is a lonely place indeed, and while
communing with nature and ruminating up
on the effect which war has produced upon
all sides, his attention Is attracted by salt
peter cave, At the entrance Of which is a
solitary grave, with rough head-bosrd,
upon which the followingis inscribed: "An
unknown woman, victim of rebel barbar.
ity, buried by the members Of the 5th

He pauses, and reads the history of sue
ferihg and wrong in that simple inscription,
and passes on wondering what her history
could have been. "Had she no husband,
no children, no father to shed a solitary tear
upon that mound A" is the question he ma
tutally asks, and to which no answer il
given The following is the brief story, al
related by private soldier, who received il
| from an old man residing in the valley
The soldier does not now recollect the name
The woman was the mother of two children
the father was an intelligent, though poo
man, native of New England, who re
manned true to the Union. and when urgeC
into the rebel ranks repelled all offers o
position and remained at home. Durin.

was conscripted, and few nights after
while trying to escape, was shot by tn
pickets. ,'H .NT
Upon the poor widow and her childrel
the wrath of the chivalrous soldiers fel
with crushing weight. Driven from he
home by them, che children soon died o
hunger, and, after vain attempts to reacl
Chattanooga, and obtain some aid from
charitable people, she was forced to subjec
herself to the behests of brutal soldiery
and suffer living death. Determined t.
free herself from them, she escaped to tn
mountain cave, and watched an opportunit,
of escape to Chickamauga Driven b
hunger from her mountain hiding-place, sh
perished at its entrance, and her soul wa
freed. Our soldiers found her bleache
bones and consigned them to the earth.-
This is the narrative as told by one who pre-
fessed to know If true, it is but anothe
picture of the dark side of war and one tina

When the chest is about full raise the arms

bring them over the head, just as the lung
are quite full. Then drop the thumbs in

backward, and the chest open, reverse tn.
process by which you draw your breath, til
the lungs are entirely empty. This process
should be repeated three or four times du

soon they N"play OUT here. "A man gains
noteriety in some Western State by 'open-

to the metropolis, shines for short time,

WE extract the following, from soldiers
letter, descriptive ofthe battle of Missionary
Ri.ge: During the rout of the rebels on
Lookout Mountain, large numbers of them
crouched behind the huge rocks, and as our
men came rushing up to them, held up their
hands imploring, Don't kill US, we give
up" "Kill you; the ID, NO! Got any
tobacco? Shell OUT" And grabbing hasti-
ly their large plugs of tobacco, our boy,
rushed on, many Of them holding plug be-
tween their teeth"

Negroes and Pork.

A Southern paper speaks of the sale Of
nine slaves, at an average price of s4,347. as
highly fattering to such property. The
same paper quotes pork at Richmond at
SO 25 per pound. From this we see that's
slave will buy little over 1900 pounds of
pork. Befors the rebellion likely slave
would have bought 10000 pounds of PORK,
or twenty-six times the present war. If
rebel shareholders are satisfied with these
figures, others ought to be.

kept up the beacon fires of liberty in pol
