MRS. DR.. NARY WALKER IN AN AN AwK'
WARD eF1x."-The recent accounts Of the
failure of this lady to obtain an interview
with General Grant because she wore pan
falcons, have revived the following anec'
dote:
ssWhile with the army of the Potomac, IN
the Summer of 1868, DR.. Walker visited
the headquarters of Col. afterwards Gen
eraD Samuel Carroll of the second army
corps. Failing in all her efforts to obtain
her regular commission as surgeon in the
army, and having only permission to remain
with the troops in the capacity of nurse, the
doctor was frequently obliged to accept
the hospitality of officers. On the occasion
referred to, she plainly stated to Col. Car
roll her intention of tarrying at his head
quarters few days for the laudable pur-
pose of looking after the sick. Of course
the General consented and being as gallant
as he is brave, offered her the sole use ofhis
tent, which she accepted. So far so good.
Earl y on the morning after her arrival, a
field officer of the 7th West Virginia regi-
ment, of Carroll's brigade-a bluff, honest.
brave, devil-may care back-woodsman-took
a walk over to brigade headquarters, and
noticing the flies of CAROLS tent were still
tied, thought 1t was somewhat strange that
his commanding officer, generally an early
riser, should remain in bed at 80 late an hour:
Il have it, said he, thinking moment and
approaching the tent, he quietly united the
canvass doors, winking at the same time to
several staff officers who were near by, at
tempting to control their risibilities. The
face of the sleeper was hidden by the bed
covering, and the officer, quietly lifting at
the foot of the couch, and encircling two
warm ankles with his brawny paws, while
he watched the head of the bed intently to
see if the sleeper awoke, shouted at the top
of his lungs as he dragged the body com
pletely out of the bed to the floor: Carroll,
you lazy cuss, get up here! It's 8 g
The rest of the sentence was lost in pierre
ing scream, such as only female in distress
can furnish at short notice, and the jolly
officer, abashed and dumfounded, bounded
from the tent like stag struck by three
ounce bullet. The joke was too good to
keep, and the result was that every soldier
in the second corps knew the story about
Col. - of the Seventh Virginia pulling DR..
Mary Walker out of bed

A BACK.WOODs COUNTY.

A traveller in Volusia county, Florida
writes to the Florida Union some observa.
tions on men and things in that locality:
In passing through the country, after the
first sense Of the ludicrous passes off, feel.
ing of sadness possesses the traveller, as he
reflects how easy the road is from civiliza'
ton backward to barbarism. 1t affects the
external appearance of the women more un.
favorably than the men. Luckily for us.
''waterfaIs" are unknown to our ckwoods
toilets. They are only worn on the st.
Johns, and by misses on their return from
boarding schools. Hoops are very rarely
worn. Three fourths of the women 60 bare.
foot one half of the time. The only regular
preaching in the county is in log house
near Volusia, where the pulpit is supplied
once in four weeks by preacher from an
adjoining county. County affairs are man.
aged, or rather manage themselves in sort
of 60 happy, 60 lucky manner, in harmony
with other matters. A portion of the Of
fcers cannot write or read, do not under
stand their duties, and have no inclination
to perform them when they are understood.
There is not magistrate or justice of the
peace in the county commissioned. The
county is in fact without law. Crimes which
require little exertion are comparatively
common. There being no magistrates or
clergymen, the marriage ceremony is rather
sighted. Parties marry and unmarry to
suit their fancy. One remarkable case ex-
lists of a man with two wives, one wife with
six and the other with seven children, all
living in the same house.
When I carried the aevs week ago to a
crowd of men near Volusia of the laying of
the Atlantic cable, the expressions of sur
prise we're various. One pious, old man
held up both hands, exclaiming "Oh the
gracious God" This made me bold in tell
