A ChapIain's story.

AT the anniversary dinnnr at Cor
ham Seminary, in Maine, last week,
Rev. DIR. Adams, Of Gorham, related
several incidents Of his four years
experience as chaplain, and among
them the following:
While the regiment with which
Mr. Adams was connected lay en-
camped in lower Virginia, he learned
that a lawyer Of considerable reputa-
ton and wealth lived in the vicinity,
and as the name was one not uniamil-
lar to Mr.. Adams, he veniured to vis-
it the gentleman's residence. lie
was ushered into the presence Of
refined aud sociable lady, whose dress
and countenance gave evidence of
late ailliciion. Entering into conver-
sation, Mr., Adams ascertained that
her husband was his own college
classmate, who went South after grad
uating, and was distinguished at the
commencement Of the war for his
firm advocacy of the Union and his
unrelenting hostility to John M. Ma
san, the prominent rebel and his near
neiRhbor.
"In reply TO queries, the sad-Leart-
ed wife related the story Of her sor-
sows. Said she, my husbands name
was David B., snd he gradual
ed at ---, and had accumulated
some property. We had eight chill
dren and lite, sir, was full OF happi-
ness. But my husband, in order TO
protect himself and US, was compelled
to submit TO secession, although he OPP
posed il whenever he could. My
sons were forced into the rebel SER
vice; aud one, The Oldest, was killed
in the charge on Fredericksburg an
other sickened, and died from diseas-
eS Of the camp; a third was wound
ed, and crippled for life, at Gettys-
burg and | have got another one
down in the rebel army somewhere,
sir. A few months ago my husbands
health failed, and he lies buried out
il the field yonder. The soldiers
have been here and destroyed nay
crops, my fences and my trees, and
my own health is fast declining. Mr..
Mason, my neighbor, whom my hus-
band opposed 50 earnestly, bad a for
eign mission under the rebel govern
ment, and bis boys were commission
ed or had qaarermasleEs berths in
ito army, while my sons were forced
into the ranks. 1t seems very hard,
sir, very hard; but can't help
lhjhkipg that the hand Of God is in il,
sir "

Done Judge by Appearances

Some years ago there arrived Mt

Falls an odd looking man, whose APP

dressed and polished figures which
adorned the celebrated resort. He
seemed to have just sprung from the
woods bis dress, which was made of
leather, stood dreadtally in need OF
repair, apparently not having felt the
touch OF needlewoman for many a
long month. A worn out blanket,
that might have served for a bed, was
buckled to his shoulders; large knife
hung on one side, balanced by long,
rusty tin box on the other, and his
beard, uncropped, tangled and coarse,
fell down upon his bosom, as to coun-
terpoise the weight Of the thick, dark
locks that supported themselves on
his back and shoulders. This strange
being, TO the spectators seeming half
civilized, half savage, had a quick,
glancing eye, an elastic, firm move
ment that would, no doubt, win its
way through the brakes both Of the
wilderness and Of society. He push

HAWAIIAN CorToN.- We learn from
Honolulu papers, that in the Fall of last
year a small lot of Sea Island Cotton was
sent from Honolulu to Boston. 1t was
there pronounced by experienced manu-
facturers to be a very superior article,
rating higher than even the South Caro-
lima grade. The ship Ceylon which ar
rived at the Islands July 22d, brought
among her cargo from Boston, n cotton
press and five gins, from which it is infer
able that the cultivation of this important
staple will form another source Of revenue
to the rapidly p~rospering Islands, and
may be of much importance to this coast
supplying materials for the several cot
ton mills now in course Of erection.

INcREAsE.-In nine years the taxable
property of San Francisco has increased
from S35, 600, 900 to $50, 900, Ooo-an in
crease of 1870 per cent. Taking the assess
ment roll of 1864, Storey county, Nevada,
increased in property from 1860, at which
period there was no property here, in
about five years, fourteen million dollars.
The figures Of 1866 are not quite so high,
say BY about five millions, but in point of
bullion products from her mines, Storey
county never was more prosperous. The
blubber and mushroom has been sliced
from the top Of visionary castles in the
air-from eligible city and town lots, with
simply possession for a title-and all that
kind of poppy-cock, calculated to make
men particularly and id rich for a few
weeks. We are all coming down to the
solid music of money, and the o n we

Frenchman named John Vignot, COM

District Courts to recover possession Of a
number of valuable building lots in Gold
Hill, upon which are erected many of the
best stores, and other property (including
a part Of the Yellow Jacket mine build
ings) claiming the land by virtue of prior
location. The suit caused considerable
bother and expense among the occupants
and owners of the lots, but we are pleased
to say that yesterday the suit was COM
promised between the parties litigant, and
no further difficulty is now involved as to
the titles to the lots.

The DRY ToRTUGAs.-There are several
islands bearing the name of Tortuga.
The term is Spanish, and signifies a tor
toise. The DRY T~ortugas" constitute
an island group and bank in the Gulf Of
Mexico, about one hundred miles west of
Cape Sable, in Florida. There are ten
islets or keys in all. They consist Of a
coral formation, and have little vegeta-
ton. except mangrove bushes. On one
of them, known as Blush Key" and
"Garden Key" q lighthouse has been
erected. At the beginning Of the rebel
lion, the Government undertook the con-
struction of Fort Jefferson, and sent
thither refractory persons to work upon
the Notifications. They are too remote
from any populated place to enable the
prisoners to obtain means of escape; too
desolate to invite trading vessels and all
articles of food must be supplied by Gov
eminent transports. The place furnishes
a secure rather than an attractive place Of
residence.

WEAK BAcKEp.-We have understood
that a few weak-backed Union men in

right of suffrage to loyal colored men in

one whom we favor for a nomination for
Congress, is responsible for 1t. The ques-
ton of negro as against traitor suffrage is
one of legitimate discussion in loyal news
papers, just now-however close-mouthed.

and prominent politicians may be on the

THE Democracy are not only waking up in
California, but also in the East. From every
quarter CONF tidings Of good cheer. The
people are fast becoming aroused to the i'm
p~ortance OF the great crisis.-S.F Examiner.
As an evidence of their waking up in
California, We will just state that the
Union party of that State have a clear
majority on joint ballot in their Legisla-
turc of sixty-four. The "wake-up snakes"
there don't amount to much. The great
representative of the democracy in the
East, Mistress Surratt, has not said much
lately, mol given evidence Of waking up.
The devil take all such "waking-up."
