The town was taken March IL, 1862 eyac-

they left, the greatest conflagrations being
when the rebels left first, and when our
troops left in this last instance. 1t was
again occupied by our troops on February

er since 1t presented at that time sad
and sickening picture. Entire blocks were
naught but piles of blackened bricks The
long avenues of evergreen shade trees that
once arched the streets from end to end,
were broken into sections, and vacant
places showed only the charred trunks of
the proud magnolia and live oak. The
Protestant Episcopal and Catholic church
es were gone. The famous Judson House,
the Burlington and the Merchants Hotel, the
spacious warehouses and splendid stores,
and perhaps one-half the magnificent resi-
dences that once adorned the town, were
all swept away Fences that enclosed gar
dens and court-yards have gone to kindle
soldiers fires, or to make a floor for his
tent. 1t was ruin everywhere. The wood
en- pavements were either burned or had
rotted away, and heavy army wagons
worked the streets into heaps Of sand

OF the exciting questions OF the day and
loud threats ere uttered that, if he dared
to appear, he should not leave the hall alive.
AT the appointed hour he ascended the plat
form, and advancing to the desk, laid his
pistol upon it. He then addressed the au-
dience in terms as near like the following
as our informant could recolect
Fellow citizens 1t is proper when free
men assemble for the discussion of impor-
tant public interests, that everything should
be done decently and in order | have been
informed that part of the business to be
transacted on the present occasion is the
assassination of the individual who now
has the honor of addressing you. / beg
respectfully to propose that this be the first
business in order Therefore, if any per-
son has come here tonight for the purpose
indicated, do not say let him speak, but
let him shoot"
Here he paused, with his right hand on
his pistol, and the other holding open his
coat, while with his eyes he blandly sur
veyed the assembly After a pause of half
a minute, he resumed.
Gentlemen, it appears that | have been
misinformed. | will now proceed to ad-
dress you on the subject that has called us
together"
Which he did, with all his accustomed
boldness and vivacity, not sparing his ad-
versaries, but giving them plenty Of pure
Tennessee
Tailor as he was, he is no snob Soon
after he was inaugurated Governor of Tenn
essee high official of the State who had
been bred a blacksmith, presented him with
set Of elegant fire-irons, made with his
own hands. d" will give him a return in
kind" remarked the Governor He bought
some of the finest black broad-cloth that
Nashville could furnish, procured a set of
tailor's implements, got the judges meas
ure from his tailor, and made complete
suit Of clothes, setting every stitch him
self, and presented them to his friend The
work, we are told, was all done in the Gov
ernOr's room i'll the State House The hap

them perfect fit, and when we heard the
story, in 1858, he had them still.-N Y

The MANSION OF JEFF DAvIs.-The man
sion of jeff Davis is, of course, a great
centre Of attraction i'll Richmond. 1t is
situated at the Corner of Marshall and Gov
ernor streets, in a very slightly location,
about three squares north of the capitol,
and is a substantial, transformations man
sion of a somewhat antiquated style, but
presenting an air of solidity and decided
comfort. 1t is not roomy enough for much
display, but an inspection of its interior re-
veals quite as much elegance as could be
expected from the limited resources of the
Confederacy. The rooms on the main floor
are about eight in number, and Brussels
and velvet carpets, lace and damask cur
tains, rosewood, set in blue and gold mar
ble-top tables, French plate mirrors, easy
chairs and lounges in red and richer cover
ing, abound with the same degree of good
taste and profusion that prevail in the man
sions of many OF your well-to-do New
Workers..
The bedrooms are luxuriOusly furnished;
while the china and glassware, and the cul-
mary arrangements generally, attest the
fact of good living on the part of the occu-
pants The house was left intact by Davis,
but most of the family effects were re-
moved. Mrs. jeff had packed her trunks
and gone to the country few days before,
and did not have time to return before the
city was evacuated.
jeff Davis carriage, built for him three
years ago in New Orleans, at an expense
of $4,000, is among our captures. 1t was
taken to the Danville depot, but there was
no room for it, and then it was run against
one of the walls to burn but by some
means it was rescued, though i'll a dam
aged condition 1t is in good running o.
der, however, and with few repairs it will
again be quite a stylish vehicle. The pair
of bay horses that he used to drive Were
run out of the city, together with all the
other live stock.

ANDY JOHNsON's SPUNK."

When we were at Nashville, seven years
ago, anecdotes of the GOODNESS and courage
of Governor Johnson were among the cur
rent coin Of conversation One gentleman,
political opponent Of the Governor, an
eyewitness of the occurrence, told us that
placard was posted in the town, one
morning, announcing, in the well-known
language ofTennessee, that Andy Johnson
was to be shot "on sight" Friends of the
governor assembled at his house to escort
him to the State House. "No," said he,
gentlemen, if am to be shot at, want
no man to be in the way of the bullet"
He walked alone, and with unusual delib-
GRAFTON, through the streets to his official
apartments on Capitol Hill.
Another eyewitness related similar
story. He was announced to speak on one

and the history abounds in nseful sngges-
tions and hints about mending all manner
of bad thriftless ways never knew any
one to read it without being Influenced by
it to repair and set in order their own pos

Depend upon it, girls, careless untidy

The beautiful sublimity of natural things
of this world should make us restless for
the attainment of the beauties of the world
to come.

THE FUNERAL.
BY HENRY 3. HIRST.

The ground is white with apple blossoms,
As though a fragrant snow lay there
And from the meadows breezy bosoms
The blackbirds' music floods the air
Bat he who heard the robin whistle
Last spring, among the apples bloom,
Che Liberator, Father, Savior
Tie Martyr! passes to the tomb.
Bradford reporter. [volume] (Towanda, Pa.) 1844-1884, 1865-05-11

Through the long avenues OF cities,
through the comminglng peoples hum,
Marshalled by sighs, and sobs, and pities,
The sacred relic onward come.
The very heavens themselves are weeping,
While tears fill every earthly eye,
As. mourufully, the cortege, sweeping
To solemn dirges, passes by.
