4 Gentleman Should be Recognized
Wherever Found.

The following is from the pen OF Gen.
d. II. Hill in the August number Of The
Land H'e Lore:
We have been asked by lady friend
how we ought 10 treat "our late enc.
mies." As her letter is without sigma.
turs, we suspec, that there may be soms
tenderness in the inquiry, and will there.
fore deal ,enderly with the subject.
1t is safe rule to recognize the gentle
man and man Of honor wherever lound,of
whatever creed, sect, or nation. We
cannot understand how men, who have
fought each other squsre|y and brsvely,
can continue 10 hate each other alter hos.
Hlites have ceased. But we can under
stand how good men of both sides can
loalhe. with bitter loaihing. house burners,
thieves, and maraCders. We can under
stand the contempt honest men feel for
The cowaTdly miscreanis who kep, out OF
the manly fight to tramPe upon and in
suit the weaker party alter Ihe hght was
over. We would remind our lady lnend
that if the United States army had in j.

silver spoons upon their hands. We have
heard story Of that great statesman ard
Ijurisl, JOdge Butler. Of South Carolina,
which may assis, the fair lady in coming
to decision. When the Judge, thcn
Mr.. b., was practising law, son OF ihs

manded by the Italian Government, 10
whom France has ceded Venena. This

emperor Of Germany, more than thous-
and years ago was preserved in Italy
through the terrible devastation of the
Middle Ages and was finally worn by
Napoleon Bonaparle. who with it was
crowned king of Italy at Milan. When
Austria became master Of Lombardy. the
crown followed the fortunes Of the coun.
try, and now that the country is again
made part of the Italian kingdom, the
Italian Government justly claims the
crown.
