DIED.,


On the nth of September, 1883, while on visit to
Mr. r. ID. Foster, Of potsylvania county, Va
Mrs. MARY BEAZLEY. late of Charlottesville,
But thirteen months ago Mrs. BEAzLEr, with
her six afectionate children, stood by the DEATH
bed Of her devoted husband, DR.; E. n BRAzLEY:
Little did those children think that so soon they
would witness the death struggles of their other
kind and gentle parent. May their Heavenly "a
Their who has seen fit TO deprive them OF their
earthly parents, throw around them his arm OF
mercy, protect them, and shield their innocent
hearts from worldly COMMUNICATIONS, that they,
too. when lifes ftful fever is over, may lind rest
on the bosom OF Jesus.

tah,;sb the true principles of tho. Censtitu-
tion wc NAV reasonably look for peace and
,ranouillity throughout our borders. Com
mercc, agriculture, and manufactures will
revive, and our rciinited country will enter
on new career of prosperity and great
ness, which will far exceed anything known
in our past history.
Let the watchwordof every patriot there
fore be- : "Our Federal Union, 1t must hc
preserved!"
Very respectfully Your obedicnt servant,
ALEXANDER ii. ii. STUART.
Hon. George Ashmun also wrote an ex-
ccllent letter. from which We extract the
subjoined:
know Mr.. Johnson we'll. He is honest,
sagaciou,. true, and firm, aud all such IN
mutations upon his motives are most unjust.
I know, too. that he is faithfully following
the same line of generous and far-seelng
policy which guided Mr.. Lincoln up to the
hour of his death, and ! cannot be brought
to doubt either its expediency or Its justice.
Certainly no higher or holicr motive tor &C
ton in n public servant can be suggested
than that of q desire for the immcdlateFc-
srnration to friendly relations of those parts
Of our country which have been alicnatcd.
The war, followed by u solid and last ;hg
peace, may, after all, prove blessing. A2t
\ hollow truce, out of which fiery passions
and INSCRIPTIONS personal ambitiCAS
seek to make profitable harvest, cun-
not be anything but a curse. Re-
storation upon the basis of mutual interests
and mutual honor promises everything
which an honest heart can desire; and Inc
resolutions of the Union Convention at
Philadelphia, solemnly made and acccdcd to
by southern representatives OF high per-
sonal character and position, give us all the
"guarantecs for the future" which can he
asked or wanted. Vengeance, hatred, heart
burnings, and ill-bloodcan be stimulatedhl
Understanding words of elimination and
savage threats of a rcUpencd war but Il
We desire a restored commerce between the
alicnatcd States, restored credit for our
national currency, restored prosperity to
the industry of every part of our great
country, and renewed and increased
power to present All undivided and unbro-
ken front upon all national questions to-
ward the rest of the world, let us at once,
without hesitation or reluctance, extend to
the southern States the most precious po-
litical right of constitutional govern
ment-thc right of representation, and thus
make our Union, "nor and forever, one
and indivisible."

A FEW weeks since we saw in some of our
exchanges statements, apparently authentic,
of the very straitened circumstances of the
widow and family of the late lamented Gen.
eral JACKSON; and, prompted by a profound
admiration of his trancendent military
genius and his exalted moral worth, wo pro-
posed to take up q subscription in Charleston
for their relief After the first announce
ment of the purpose, however, it occurred to
us that we mighthave been misled, or, if the
facts were as stated, that it might be
more becoming and respectful of the feelings
of that most estimable lady, to learn from
her whether she would acquiesce in the i'm
pressions prev .iling as to her circumstances
and the measures to relieve them the impress
sion was likely to inspire. To our note ad-
dressed to her upon the subject we have
received the letter which we publish
below, and, as an act of justice to the lady,
we would request such of our contemporaries
as have published the notice of her circum-
stances, anu NlllCl lllNO e'tNCH IAS 'hS"suicS
to relieve them which we ourselves pro-
posed, to publish, also, this communication.
The spirit of the letter, it must be confessed,
is very beautiful 1t is not denied that she is
without means, and that she is dependent up
on her father, whose fortune is known not to
be ample; and there is still room for the re-
gret that the relict of one so venerated could
not be placed by his admiring countrymen in
position of more perfect independence;
but she is too conscious of what is due to her
self as woman, and to the memory of her
great husband, to be placed in the position of
a mendicant Of common charity and contri-
buttons, in misconception of her position,
therefore, with the most perfect Kindness
for those who offer them, she feels constrained
to decline. The resolution we admire. 1t is
one which, in justice to her, we ought TO have
apticipated But the wish fingers with US,
as it will linger, doubtless, with our readers,
that in somo way, apart from process SO un-
pleasant, the means might be found to testl-
fy to those he has left behind MIN the graft
tude and admiration of o people for the great

COTTAGE HOME, N. c.. January a5 1866

| COTTAGE HOME, N. c., January 25 1866.
MY DEAR SIR: Your letter of the Sd inst WAS
forwarded to me from Lexington, Virginia. 1
have delayed answer for q few days, hoping to re-
ceivc the papers to which you referred but it has
| not yet reached me, and have not had the ploas
uro OF reading your EDITORIAL but, judging from
the remarks in your letter, suppose it is SINH
lar publication to what has recently appeared III
many OF the newspapers, representing the family
of General JACKSON as suffering for the neccssi-
ties of life, and appealing to the public for their
relief.
1t is source OF deep regret and modification
to me, and to my family and friends. that such q
misunderstanding should exist in regard to my
circumstances. It is true that almost the whole
of my little fortune has been swept away. My no.
BILE husband, actuated by patriotism, invested in
Confederate bonds, to assist the Government, and
l, following his example, the consequence was the
loss of nearly tho whole of his estate but God
has still left to one Of the kindest of fathers,
who has the means Of providing all tho comforts
of life for Inc and my orphan child. Tho pecunia-
ry suferings of others in our afflicted land have
been so much greater than my own that, in this
respect, have only need of moro thankful heart.
ana OF all OtncrS, SHOULD nave no IcarS LOT Cnc
futuro,-for tho covenant-kecping God of my hus-
band has watched over us heretofore, and the
love of this great people to me and my little child,
on his account, fills my heart with grateful joy.
While it is one Of the greatest comforts Of my
desolated life to SEQ the MANY beautiful and elo-
quent tributes to the memory Of my beloved hus-
band, and would gratefully accept any offerings
that are uotmtaray giren as testimonials Of lore
and gratitude to him, yet tho contributions that
are now called for are given under false impress
sion and it is inconsistent with my ideas Of honor
and rectitude to receive them. 1 would, there
fore, beg that all efforts that arc made to raise
fund for my 'relief," both in Charleston and else
where, be Immediately stopped
With thanks to the warm-heartcd and generous
citizens of Charleston for their kind feelings
towards me and mine,
remain, yours very truly,
MARY ANNA JACKSON.
