Madame Jumel.

A writer to the Providence Journal, Of
Llly 22d, thus writes:-
Your New York correspondent gives
fair but incomplete outline of the early
life of Madame Jumel.
At about the commencement of the
Revolutionary war her mother resided
in Rehoboth, in the neighborhood Of
this city, and at one time, It is believed.
lived in the family Of the late Knight
Dexter, Esq. The daughter "Betsey
Bowen was born in that town, and at
very early age was brought here and
placed in service in the family of the late
Oliver Carpenter, whose wife was sis
ter of Mr.. Dexter. The daughter of Mr..
Carpenter the mother of the writer is
still living, at the age of 81, and has
vivid recollection of little Betsey Bow
EN-, as bold, bright and beautiful child
of about her own age.
The family lived at that time in the
old Revolutionary mansion, which las
many of our readers will recollect) stood
at the corner of Westminster and Union
streets, and which was destroyed by fire
in 1926. The house was occupied for q
time, during the Revolution, by French
officers, while division ofthe French
army was quartered here, and among
them was this Captain Jumel-at least
he is recollected to have been called by
this title; at all events, it is certain that
he came here with tho French army.
The young girl attracted the attention
of Jumel, and she eloped with him at
the close or shortly after the close of the
war, and lived, as we have always I'M
derstood, under his protection for many
years in the city Of New York.
We have heard, and believe it has
never been disputed, that the marriage
took place between them at her own sug-
restion, as a matter of conscience, on
What was supposed to be her death-bed;
she recovered, however, in very rea.
sonably short time afterwards, and led
hin, gay and happy lie without re-.
proach. Jumel was very much attached
to her. They visited France together
once or twice, and at his death she was
left il possession OF considerable proper
ty. nadia

hood, was visited at Harlem Heights by
the remaining few from this city who
her childhood, and were
received without reserve with the most
cordial hospitality.

A SAD STORY OF THE WAR.
Discovery Of College Classmate-Y Young Men
Forced into the Rebel Service.

At the anniversary dinner at Gorham
Seminary in Maine, last week, Rev. DR..
Adams, of Gorham, related several incl
dents OF his four years experience as
chaplain, and among them the follow.
ing
while the regiment with which Mr..
Adams was connected lay encamped in
lower Virginia, he learned that a lawyer
OF considerable reputation and wealth
lived in the vicinity, and as the name
was one not unfamiliar to Mr.. Adams,
he ventured to visit the gentleman's re-
sidence. He was ushered into the pre-
sence of q refined and sociable lady,
whose dress aud countenance gave evil
dence of late atiliction. Entering into
conversation, Mr.. Adams ascertained
that her husband was his own college
class-mate, who went South after gradu-
ating, and was distinguished at the COM
mencement of the war for his firm advo-
cacy of the Union and his unrelenting
hostility to Jas. NJ. Mason, sthe proni-
nent rebel, and his near neighbor. In
reply to queries, the sad-hearted wife
related the story of her sorrows. Said
she, My husbands name was David
B., and he graduated at - College.
We lived here before the war broke out,
and had accumulated some property.
We had eight children; and life, sir, was
full OF happiness. But my husband, in
order to protect himself and us, was COM
PEELED to submit to secession, although
he opposed it whenever he could. My
sons were forced into the rebel service;
and one, the Oldest, was killed in the
charge OH Fredericksburg; another sick
ened, and died from disease of the camp;
third was wounded, and crippled for
life, at Gettysburg; and I have got
anotherone down in the rebel army some-
where, sir. A few months ago my hus-
bands health failed and he lies buried
out in the. field yonder. The soldiers
have been here and destroyed my crops,
my fences, and my trees, and my own
health is fast declining. Mr.. Mason, my
neighbor, whom my husband opposed
| so earnestly, had a foreign mission under
the rebel government, and his boys were
commissioned or had quartermaster's
berths in its army, while my sons were
forced into the ranks. 1t seems very
hard, sir, very hard; but / cannot help
thinking that the hand of God is in it,
sir ~

The ARRAY near Lexington, Tenn.

The telegraph gave few Particular
of very serious difficulty which oc
CURED at place called Rocky Springs
some ten miles southeast of Lexington
Tennessee, on the evening of the Stf
inst. By this unfortunate affair three
men lost their lives, aud seven Others
were seriously injured, some of them, il
is feared, too much so to recover from
their wounds. The difficulty seems to
have occurred in the following manner,
as we learn from Memphis paper:
"The people of Henderson were much
divided duringthew When the Union
forces entered Tennessee, many OF the
young men of the country joined seve-
raj regiments for the Union army, Whlch
were being raised. Among them We're
several Young men from the neighbor-
hood of Rocky Springs. Recently these
Young men have been mustered out OF
the service and returned to their own
homes. On the Sth the people OF the
neighborhood concluded to have a re-
union and bury the Ratchet. A pic
mic was got up, and tho whole popula'
ton turned out. For while every
thing went smoothly, both parties join>
ing in the sawdust dance. Towards even
ing, however, avery slight circumstance
occurred marring notonly til occasion, but
terminating fatally to three of the num-
Der. \ young man, named White, for
merly member of the Sixth Tennes-
see cavalry (Union) asked young lady
to join in the dance. The young lady,
who had lost two brothers in the rebel
service, refused, accompanying the re-
fusal by some very unladylike and dis.
paraging remark. To this White took
offence, and made some very damaging
remarks about the lady. Her relatives
anu friends took the matter up, while
the friends of White gathered around
him. Thus the party were divided, and
bitter dispute arose, which ended in q
regular pitched battle, in which pistols
We're freely used. White was severely
wounded through the chest by pistol
shot. One Wiston, of the rebel party,
was shot through the head, and expired
almost instantly. Markham, of the
Union party, was also killed by plstoi
shot through the breast, and Wayiin'
one of the young lady's friends, was XIII
ed, having been shot four times through
the abdomen, chest, shoulders ana neck;
Several others were severely, some OF
them mortally, wounded. Tne names
of the wounded, with two exceptions,
are, White, George Chaplin, William
Finerty. Charles Simmons anu inoinas
Harold. The feelings of the neighbor.

feared that other deeds of violence may
occnr' such scenes are much to be re-
GREETED, as it has tendency to keep So
eiety unsettled" ..a,s...4 s.e.-.

The Chicago Riot.

The Chicago Tribune gives the follow
Ing account of the recent soldiers riot in
that city;
A riot took place in the northern d.
vision of the city on Friday mlrn.ng,
which threatened the peace and saf-ty Of
the whole city, and furnished another
example of the IMPROPERLY ofpermitting
returned soldiers to carry their arms
with them after being mustered out OF
| the service, when, of coul Sc, their officers
lose all control of them. 1t appears that
party of the 9Th Iowa Infantry were
passing through the city on their way to
| Davenport to be paid off and dismissed,
| when some of them went into the sas
/ loon of Henry Mehring and demanded
| liquor. This was furnished them, ana

him. Mehring lifted piece OF wool
and knocked one or two down, when the
marty set upon him and beat him badly.

killing him instantly. Mehring escaped.
and the drunken and excited soldiers
went in search of him. Fooled in find

Quilted his saloon and committed all the

to fire Meetings. house was frustrated,
The police were assaulted and threaten

possession of the Jail, in which they
sought to find Mehring to lynch him,
threatening to hang the Captain of the
Police, and behaved themselves like
very fiends. Meanwhile all law was set
at defiance, and the city was likely to be
given over to the mercy of these armed
drunkards and savages, when one OF

The Slavery Question in Kentucky.

A report, dated the Goth inst, from
Commissioner Fisk, who has supervi-
sion of the Freedmen's affairs in the
States of Tennessee and Kentucky, has
Just been received at General Howard IS
headquarters, aud from it is extracted
the following
Kentucky is just now stirred to its bit
ter depths on the slavery question. A
holly contested political canvass is agi-
tating the entire State. The only issue
before the people is the ratification OF
the constitutional amendment forever
prohibiting slavery in this country. The
devotees OF the barbarism cling to its
putrid carcass with astonishing tenacity.
kentucky, fear, will refuse to become
one of the twenty-seven pall-bearers re-
quired to bear the remains of the great
| abomination to its final resting place.
| Major General Palmer, commanding
| the Department of Kentucky, has by
general orders, stricken the shackles from
all slaves who will leave the State. His
post commandants, throughout the State
are grantingpasses to each colored person
making application. Railroads, Steam
boats and ferry boats are required to
transport all who present the military
pass and pay their fare. This orderwas
issued on the 10th inst, and the result
has been that thousands of the colored
population have crossed the Ohio, and
are now crowding the towns and cities
Of the States lying opposite.
The writer adds that he is daily look
ing for breeze from indianapolis and
other Northern cities that may be ex-
periencing the black vomit. The enan-
cipation and deportation by general Or
der, and the agitation attending the po-
litical canvass, have reused every color
ed person to the importance of striking
for freedom; and men, women and chill
dren, are generally upon the move for
some place beyond the reach of masters.
In many localities the most liendish afro
cities are being visited upon the slaves
by their maddened and despairing mas
ters. Especially is this the case where
the males of the families have enlisted
| in our army Gen. Palmer has directed
his postcommandants toforward all par
ties making application for protection to
Camp Nelson, and five hundred Were
forwarded last week alone. sq.1
