cents inquired If be could take the oath
for his mother. His features were hand.
some, his manners modest, but he had an
Intelligent and an appealing look. He
was informed that bis request could not
be granted, but that bis mother MIGHT
take the oath in person. The little
fellow turned towards the door and burst
into tears, and sobbed 80 pasaionatalv that
the provost marahal called him benk to
ask the cause Of his grief. my mother, {.

lowing letter of Gen. Joseph E. Johnston /:
BUFFALo SPKNes, MEExIKNsuRG Co.. y
Va, August II, 1866.
You ask my views on the future course and
future interests of US all. The case ;s 81 Main
that very little can be said or written rnor r.
We, of the South, referred the question at ;ssne
between us and the United States to the arh;.
trament of the sword. The decision has hon
made. and it is against as. We must acnu;esca
in that decision, accept it as final, and recoC.
nize the fact that Virginia is again one Of ~
United States. Our duties and interest chin.
eide. We shall consult the one, and perform
the other, by doing all we can to promote the
welfare of our neighbors and to restore pros
perity to the country. We should at once
commence the duties of peaceful citizens, by
entering upon some useful pursuit, qualifying
ourselves to vote, if possible; and, at the
polls, our votes should be cast for conservative
men-men who understand, and viii maintain
the interests of Virginia as one OF the United
States. This is the course which have recon
mended to all those with whom have con
versed on this subject, and that which havt
adopted for myself as far as practicable.
Very truly yours,
ae.-, j. e. JOHNSTON.

From the Hartford Times, Aug. s.
On Sunday morning q young woman
committed suicide by jumping from the
Granite State and drowning, when the
steamer was off Fort Schuyler, near New
York. The body was recovered on Mon
day on the shore opposite the place where
she jumped of. There is mystery about
her history which remains unsolved. It
appears that she took passage on the
Granite State for New York on Wednes-
day at Hartford, came back again on FRI
day, and remained on board and went
down again on the Granite State on Sat-
urday. On her upward trip on Friday she
gave her name a. Spencer, and on Satur.
day on the downward trip changed it to
Bowen, and said she was travelling for her
health and belonged to Turkey Bills. Her
unusual appearance attracted the attention
of the chambermaid, who found her out
forward on the upper deck quite late in
the evening, talking with two gentlemen,
and when informed that it was time to
close the ladies' cabin, she went in with
apparent reluctance.
About four O'Clock in the morning she
was again discovered by the chambermaid
outside of the ladies' cabin, aft. She had
crawled through the window to the wash
room. When Intercepted, she replied
that it was close in the cabin, and she was
out to take fresh air. Soon after this a
New York pilot was taken on board, and
while walking aft he heard q sudden
splash, and looking astern discovered what
appeared to him the form of a person
struggling in the water. On investigation
The woman couldn't be found, but her
jockey s.aa.. cloak and other portions of
her clothing were discovered>on the boat.
Her hair was cut short in the neck, and
she had quite large front teeth, was quite
hoarse and appeared to be in i'll health.
She paid her fare out of tea dollar bill.

From the Warrington Inteligencer, Aug. is.
Mrs. Maria Thornton, widow of the
celebrated DR.. VIM. f. Thornton, first
United States Commissioner of Patents,
died on Wednesday night, in this city, at
the advanced age of one hundred years.
Mrs. Thornton was the daughter of the un-
fortunate Dr. Dodd, of London, who was
executed for forgery in the year TIT. Her
mother, a very accomplished woman, emf
grated to Philadelphia, under the name of
Brodeau, soon after the death of her hus-
band, bringing the daughter with her. In
Philadelphia che opened q boarding school,
which was literally pntronized, az she had
brought letters from persons of the first
rank in London, to the most prominent
families in that city. DR.. Thornton, who
emigrated from England about the time Of
the adoption of the Federal Constitution,
also resided in Philadelphia, and in that
city married the Lady whose death we now
record. She was then remarkable fer her
beauty and accomplishments, and on her
removal to this city, in 1900, became one
of the most distinguished ornaments of it's
society. g
DR.. Thornton was the original architect
of the Capitol. Between Mr.. Madison
and DR.. Thornton warm friendship ex-
listed, as did also between Mrs.. Madison
and Mrs. Thornton. DR.. Thornton was
an intimate friend of John Quincy Adams
When the city was burned by the Bri.
fish, in 1914, DR., Thornton saved the Pat
ent Office from destruction, BY bic tact
and presence of mind. He protested to
the officer who was charged with that
work against such an act of vandalism,
and declared that such monuments were
spared in all ages by oonquerors who
claimed to be civilized. His appeal was
successful, and the Patent Office alone es-
capped the general oonfagration. Is

Judge Lewis F. Wright, and four Of bis
sons, were brutally murdered on the road
between Rolla and Houston, in this State
last Thursday. The attrocious deed il
said to have been committed by party
of militia under Col. Babcoke, Of Miller
county. This party arrested Judge Wright
and his sons at their homes ten miles
from Rolla, on some charge not made
known, and it was determined to take
them to Rolla. Mrs. Wright at first i'm
plered Col. Babcoke not to take her family
away. Finding that her entreaties were
unavailing she then besought him to per-
NIT her to accompany them. This
also was refused, but upon her im-
ploring him to do something for her
protection, as abe was fearful of
being murdered if left alone, the young
est son, q mere stripping, was released.
The Judge was then mounted on q horse
by himself, and his four sons upon two
other horses, under guard of the squad Of
militia, ostensibly to be taken to Rolls.
Before reaching that point, a. stated
above, they were all inhumanly butchered
and their bodies left lying in the brush BY
the roadside. No less than twenty-six
shots were fred into the persons Of the
five! Twelve Of them took effect IN their
heads. Before the bodies were reached
BY the frantic wife and mother and the
remaining son, four of the five were dead,
and the fifth insensible and dying. It il
said that two Of the murdered sons had
been in the rebel army, and had returned
since the surrender of Gen. Dick Taylor,
under whose command one Of them bad
