FRENCH CHIvALRY REVIVED. The
days of Bayard appear to be reviving IN
France. The following extraordinary
exploit, given by the correspondent of
the London Standard, will be read with
interest. In reference to the Franc
Tireurs, the correspondent says: 1.-The
band consists of fifteen members, in
Guiding NJ. Bonbonnel, their captain
He says that, after having been recog-
nized as belligerents by the Minister of
War, on the 26th of August, they i'm
mediately started in pursuit of the army
Of the Crown Prince of Prussia, then on
its way to Paris. On the Both of Au-
gust, however, when they arrived at
Vendeuvre, they found that the Ger
mans had suddenly quilted the Valley
of the Aube, and were proceeding by
forced marches to the north. They,
therefore, changed their route and pas
sed on to Boulogne by the Valley of the
Marine. By the assistance of the inhab-
ltants of the districts they traversed, in
the way of horses and carriages, they
found themselves the next day in the
midst of region occupied by the enemy,
and above all, infested by plunderers.
They Immediately set themselves to
work, and on the first Of September
they arrived at Joinville, in Haute
Marine, where ten Prussian scouts, COM
handed by Captain Schmidt, were taken
prisoners by them after an exchange of
shots.

General Lee and SHrs. Fairfax.


from the New York Commercial Adver-
tiser
The great Confederate leader, just
dead, was as remarkable for his social
IS for his military qualities. His hand
some person, aristocratic bearing and
polished manners made him especially
the idol of the fair sex wherever he
went. The severity that marked his
department in camp and battle totally
deserted him when the responsibilities
which they imposed were Withdrawn
and in private life he was one of the
most genial and humorous of men. We
recall an anecdote illustrative of this
fun-loying element of his character.
The incident occurred few years before
the outbreak of the war. Among the
most frequent visitors at the mansion on
Arlington Heights were the Fairfaxes of
Alexandria. Mrs Fairfax was one of
the Generals particular favorites, and
the attractions of her society were not
least among the other inducements which
tempted him so often from Arlington to
Alexandria One cold December morn
ing while riding through the streets of
that most delectable settlement, he es-
pied Mrs. F. approaching from the di-
rection in which he was going. A few
moments later he had dismounted and
engaged her in conversation. The lady
bad armed herself against the inclemen-
cy of the weather by carrying q white
muff, with which she relieved the ten
dency of her nose to assume a too bril-
liant pink, by pressing it every few mo-
ments to that frost beleagureG organ
In doing this many Of the hairs came off
on her vail, fact which the General
noticed, but did not refer to until he
saw friend turning an adjacent corner
and coming that way, who was some
what notorious as a quiz. Speaking
hurredly, and in an altered tone of voice,
and with and affected air of trepidation,
he turned to Mrs Fairfax and said
'My dear Madam, here comes judge
permit me to remove those hairs from
your vail-theyre the same color az my
bedrdp

A mother in Prussia, while taking
leave of her son who was starting for the
army, brought him sort of amulet, such
as good many people in Europe still
believe in, to make him bullet-proof.
The son laughingly pushed it aside, and
taking some of the gold pieces which his
parents had given him, remarked that
they should be the only talisman he would
take along. During the battle of Mars la
Tour, the young student was struck by q
bullet and fell to the ground. He thought
his last hour had come, but when the pain
Of the first shock gradually ceased he
looked at his breast and found that the
bullet had not penetrated to the skin. 1t
had been arrested by the last gold piece
which the youth had in his vest pocket,
and this had been completely followed
out by the bullet.
