RecOlIections Of Stonewall Jack
son.

Ex.-Goy Letcher of Virginia, tells
the correspondent of The New York
Times some interesting things about
the late rebel Gen. 'Jackson, best
known as Stonewall r-this among
the rest:
In regard to Jackson, he said that
for a long time Davis aud. the Rich
mond people had believed him to be
no better than lupatic, and the way
in which Davis first learned to appro-
ciate what was in him was in this
wise: In the Spring campaign of 1862
in the valley, Jackson, after causing
Fremont and Banks to retroat, turned
on his track, finding him pursued by
two conyerging columns, and with
drew up the valley. But at Cross
Keys lie suddenly faced about and
dealt Fremont staggering blow. r.
Letcher receiving a dIspatchannounc-
ing this victory Che was in the habit
Of getting earlier intelligence Of Jack
sons operations than w;m rsreived at
the war Office in Richmkntll s.went an6.
read the message to Davis The lat
ter, however, would not believe the
news, saying that il was impossible
that retroating army should have
thus turned upon aud beaten its pur-
suers. Letcher, however, insisted
/ it was true, as he knew his Informant
would not send anything that was not
true, and he told Davis that he would
probably find out its verify by the
morrow. Now. by the next day,
Jackson, having disposed Of Fremont,
] crossed the river and at Port Repub-
lie overwhelmed the other pursuing
column-the column of Shields, which
had been pursuing on the other side
Of the river. Receiving dispatch
announcing this now success, LetcheI
again repaired to Davis house, where
he found Benjamin and Seldom and
the cabinet at dinner, and after taking
glass of wine he asked Davis: "Weli
have You any confirmation OF the news
showed you yesterday ?" eyes" re
piled Davis, 81 received to-day one O
Jackson's laconic dispatches, saying
that, by the blessing Of God he hat
beaten the enemyp And now then,
rejoined Letcher Il have another bull
letin of victory to show you" handing
him the message containg the news o
the success at Port Republic, of which
Davis had not yet heard. 1t can't be
so, exclaimed the latter; sit is i'm
possible; it is unprecedented in al
military history that an army i'll full
retreat should thus turn upon an,
overwhelm two pursuing columns y
Nevertheless, the confirmation agail
came to hand, and after that jackson
was no longer regarded as a lunatic.

A Fearful Adventure.

4 young man in Iona County Mich ,
igan, last week descended well, TO
clean out the sand Mt the bottom. r.
While he was thus engaged, the stones
began to fall, and his father, hearing
the rumbling shouted to him to
Jump upon the bucket and immedi-
atcly commenced drawing him mp
with all possible speed. Tho stiffness
of the next minute or two was intense
and the scene awful. He was kept in
advance of the falling masses of stone
and drift that were filing the cavcr-
nous depths below him, till within
about fifteen feet Of the surface. The
caving in WAS too rapid, and the
stones caught and instantly wcdged
him in. As soon as possible tho
ueighbors were aroused, and III n short
time a hundred or two were at the
scene of the disaster. The young
man was yet alive, rs they learned
from time to time, by hearing his
smotherod groans and faint answers
TO their questions. The work of res
cuing him at once commenced, great
care being used, as stone after stone
WAS gently removed, lest the treaeher.
GUS and sandy earth should be dis
turbed and cave III anew, ana thus fill
up the intcrstces which might 9th
erwisc afford air sufficient to sustain
life for some hours at least The anX-
iety of course, was most intense, and
the suspense of his parents and friends
was fearful, while their hopes alter
nately rose and fell as now they
could distinguish a groan or Il feeble
response to their questioning, and
anon all would lie still again. Finally,
after tour hours labor, they reached
the sufferer, and found him sitting
upon tie sharp edge of the bucket
with a large boulder i'll his lap sitting
erect, with his head thrown back
against a portion Of the circular wall
and two or three stones resting part
/ ly against his head, and SO inclined Us
to rest also against the wall and each
other wedge" He was securely
held immovablo il his position, ant
fortunately the stones were SO archec
and yeycd that they did not again
start during all the time that the mer
were engaged in digging him out. Or
being raised to the open air, the young
man swooned, but soon revived. NJ
bones were broken, and his bruises
were SO slight that after two or thre,
days he was out apparently in hi
usual health.

Of whom l have heard, who wished to

the world, aud sought to reach lofty
places of earthly renown. Shall j tell
you abont some of them
King Solomon climbed till his head
grew dizzy, He withheld his heart
from no joy Then, MS he returned
TO God, from whom he had wandered,
he said of laughter, 1T is mad, aud
of mirth, "What doeth it g. of all his
climbing, at is vanity and vexation of

Benefit Of being Knocked About

It is good thing for young man
to be " knocked about in the world,
though his soft-hearted parents may
not think so. All youths, or if not
all, certainly nineteen twentieths of
the sum total enter life with sur
plusage Of sclf-conceit The sooner
they are relieved of it the better. If,
in measuring themselves, they discov-
er that it is unwarranted, and get rid
of it gracefully, of their own accord,
well and good; if not, it is desirable,
for their own sakes, that it be knock
ed out of them.
A boy who lis sent to large school
soon finds his level. His will may
have been paramount at home, but
schoolboys are democratic in their
ideas, and if arrogant, he is sure to be
thrashed into recognition OF the
golden rule The world is a great
public school, and it soon teaches a
new pupil his proper place If he has
the attributes that belong to a leader,
he will be installed in the position OF
leader; if not, whatever his own
opinion of his abilities may be, lie will
be compelled to fall in with the rank
and file. If not destined to greatness
the next best thing to which he can
aspire is rcspectability; but no man
can either be truly great or truly re-
spectacle who is vain, pompous and
over bearing.
By this time the novice having
found his legitimate social status, bt
the same high or low, the probability
( is that the disagreeable traits of his
character will be soltoned down OF
worn away Most likely the process
of abrasion will be rough, perhaps
very rough, but when it is all over
and he begins to see himself as others
see him, and not as reflected IN the
mirror OF self conceit, he viii be
thankful that he has run the gauntlet
and arrived, though by rough road
at acknowledge.
Upon the whole, whatever loving
mothers may think TO tho contrary, i
is a good thing for their boys TO b,
knocked about in the world; it makes
men Of them

What a Young Lady Can Do.

1t is time that the aimless life of
womanhood and the impractical train
ing Of girlhood, were exchanged for
we viii not say what, but for same
thing to do. Doing is living; nothing
else is. Our grandmothers used to
live, in this sense; not perfect mode
of life, OF course, but far better than
none at ALL And the opportunities
for woman to live are now ten to one,
and tenfold more inviting, as compar-
ed with the olden times We do not
mean TO advise any young lady in
particular to be booll-keeper, though
there are multitudes as capable OF it
by nature as men. We quote the
following simply as an instance among
others of what woman can do if she
will, with the opportunities which
many throw away
"a young lady at the East, depend
ent upon her own resources, was
adopted into the family of gentle
man in this city. The gentleman was
transacting Il business of millions of
dollars annually, and employed Iu-
merous clerks and accountants. The
young lady alluded to was taken into
the counting room, and very soon
rose to the position of chief book
keeper and cashier of the house. She
filed the position and performed the
duties with singular fidelity and salts
faction for several years. All the
large transactions OF the house passed
through her hands, the daily cash
transactions alone, amounting to from
$4,000 to $50, We have had the
satisfaction of examining this set of
books, and can truly say that no ac-
countant in Milwaukee can show a
better record of neatness and accura-
CIV. Several bankers have also exam
med the work Of this young lady, and
pronounce it well nigh faultless. The
young lady has balanced her books,
closed her accounts, and left her stu
alton to take charge of the personal
and household affairs of a young bust
ness man in noighboring city Ha-
raukcc Wisconsin.

A FRoG Srom The New Glasgow
(Noya SCOTIA Chronicle says that two
frogs were found few days ago deep
ly imbedded in the Acadia coal mine.
One of them was killed, unfortunately,
by the fall of the coal They were
found in small cavity filed with wa
ter, in the centre of the coal seam, 100
feet beneath the surface. The living
animal is small-sized, perfectly shaped,
and is quite lively; but at the same
time is blind and has no mouth
When put into fresh water, it becomes
insensible, and the water becomes Gov
eied with slime; consequently it can
only live in water taken ont of the coal
mine. 1t is at present in possession
of Major Norton, American Consul al
Picton.

all the world can give him, and he is
still miserable, if he has grovelling
unlettering, undevout mind. Let him
have his gardens, his fields, his woods,
his lawns of grandeur, plenty, orna-
ment and qualification, while at the
same time God is not in all his
thoughts. And let another neither
have field or garden, let him only
look at nature with an enlightened
mind-a mind that can see aud adore
the Creator in his works, can consider
them as demonstrations of His power
