An Affecting Incident.
From the Ohio Statesman.

From the Ohio Statesman.
Some three years ago, young man
named Gersheom Rose, residing at CLAW.
poOle's Mills, near GAINESVILLE, in Mus
kingum county, enlisted in Company B,
18th 0. Y. I. He left q most affectionate
and devoted mother, Of whom he was both
the darling and the pride. For long
time past she had not heard a word from
him, as he was with Sherman's army in its
grand sweeping campaign through the
South. She had almost given up her dar-
ling boy as lost. But unexpectedly, about
ten days ago, letter came from him, say
ing that detachment of men from the
18th would start in few days for Col
umbus, and he should come home with
them.
The fond mother could hardly believe
her eyes when she saw and read this letter.
The news was too good to be true. It
formed the subject of her thoughts by
night and day. At length, on Saturday
morning last, as she was out in the yard Of
her dwelling attending to some household
work, neighbor called and stated that the
expected detachment of the 18th had ar
rived at Tod Barracks, and that her son
was among the men. The full realization
of the actual truth that her long-lost boy
was so near home, was too much for the
mothers physical frame. She tainted and
fell. That loving heart throbbed violently
for a few moments, and then was still
forever.
Saturday evening friend of the family
arrived at the Barracks, and announced to
the young soldier the sad news Of his
mothers death. That night he left for
home, to attend his mothers funeral yes
terday.
We have often heard of death from ex-
cess of Joy at some sudden news; but, in
this case, the mother was partially pre-
pared for the good tidings. Yet when
there could be no longer room to doubt
that her beloved son was really coming
home, it was more than her physical frame
could endure. 1t yielded to the higher
emotional or spiritual nature. Oh! who
can measure the depth and intensity of Q
mothers love?

tuition from existence with the bosom of de.
struction, and if johnson Is as firm as Jackson.
who can tell what is to become of our National
Banks?"
And we respectfully submit, as an evidence
of the vast importance of the existence of the
Democratic party, the fact that that party Is
that If 1t should happen to come into power.
and President johnson should happen to hold
his old principles on this subject, there would
not be much doubt about the living fact of the
Democratic party.

A LARGE ARRIVAL OF IRoN.-The steam
er Clara Hine passed up on her way to Mendo-
ia yesterday with the largest load of railroad
iron ever brought up the river. She had in
tow the barges James Newton and John Lucky,
the two largest on the river. each loaded down
with iron for the Central Railroad, in all !, 200
bars, sufficient, if we estimate Alright, to build
four miles of road. She also had three box
cars for the same road.
Such arrivals as this, and their frequent repe-
tition, looks like business. The Central Is out
of the woods, and fast becoming real Rail-
road.

IL ANSWER to an inquiring correspond
emit, the editor of Noah's Times and
Messenger makes the following answer
concerning "the art of conversations"
The art of conversation is partly a
natural gift and partly an acquired one.
Good writer's rarely possess fuency of
speech. They are so accustomed to a
fastidiousness in the choice of language
when they write which it is impossible
to exercise when they speak, that speak
ing embarrasses them and they often
stand eclipsed as orators by persons of far
less cultivated intellect. A good CONVEX
sationalist, moreover, possesses a sort of
stage tact, in addition to his or her self
possession and fund of information, which
greatly favors success. Read anything
and everything worth reading; cast bash
fulne5s aside; fall in love with your own
voice; study to say original things in an
original manner, and you will soon be-
come what you desire to be.
