The New York World has this hap
PLY conceived aud admirable para
graph:
eff the wandering death bed utter
anccs Of the two great Confederate
chieftains, 'StoncwalP Jackson and
Robert Z. LEE, may be considered as
final upon the mutter, then the late
Confederate General, A. p. Hill, who
lost his life at the closing battle OF the
war, must be accepted by history as the
most trusted coadjutor orthesc eminent t
commanders. In his dying momeuts,
Jackson exclaimed, Send A. p. Hill to
the front" X Upon his death bed at
Lexington, General Lee, as the telegraph
states, his mind rcvorting to the bloody
events of the war, once ordered his tent
TO be struck, and, at another time, de
sired Hill to be sent for Thus does i,
appear that, in the supreme nom cnts OF
the closing hours of those men upon
whose shoulders rested the heaviest bur
dcns ofthe war upon the side of the
Confederacy, came tho utterance, born
oi de'irium, but more solemn for tha,
reason, that stamps General a. +. Hill
as a man whose presence was to be dc.
sired, and whose fidelity was assured
No higher compliment could be paid to
his memory than those parting words OF
Lee and Jackson"

sLEEP 'A'ND. DEATH.
> ''T't
a GERMAN FArLE.

The Angel of Slumber and theAhscI
of Death, fraternally, looked: in each
others arms, wandered over Tic earth.
It was evening . they reolined upon a
hillside. and. tue habitations of men
were not lar of sad stiffness pervad-
ed the air, and the evening bell Of the
village was hushed. Still and silent, as
is their manner, the two .bcni9cent genii
of mankind reposed in q mournful en-
brace, and the night camo rapidly on.
Then the angel OF. slumber arose from
his mossy couch, ana. softly scattered
from hi. hand the Invisible slumber-
seeds. The wind Of night waited tn EN-
to the quiet dwellings, Of the .wearied
husbaudmen, and forthwith sweet sleep
descended upon tho; inhabitants Of the
cottages, from tho gray haired sire to
the cradled infant. The sick man for.
got lis pains; the unhappy his sot-
rows; the poor his cares !; every eye
was closed. :. y.,.
And now his benign hbors being eud-
cd, the kind Asgel Of Slumber again lay
down by tho side Of hrs thoughtful
brother, and said ch eerfully: !
"When the red morning awak cs,
then will mankind bless me as their
friend and benefactor. Oh, how sweet it
is to do good unseen and in secret how
delightful is our duty
Thus spake the friendly Angel of
Slumbcr. The Angel of Death look ed
upon him with silent sorrow, aud o tear
such as inmortals shed gathered in
his large dark eye.
"Alas !" said he, "that I cannot, like
thyself, rejuice in their gratitude the
earth calls me her enemy and tho dis
turber Of her peace" k,
"My brother" replied the Angel of
Slumber, ".will not the good when they
awaken own thee as their friend and
beneiactor, and will they not bless thee ?
Are we not brothers and messengers of
our Father"
Thus he spakc. The eye oft Angel
OF Death sparklcd, and he claspcd his
brother more fondly In his embrace.

GENERAL LIE.

Few are the generals who have earn
cd, since history began a greater mill
tary reputation; still fewer are the men
OF similar emincncc, civil or military.
whose personal qualities would bear
comparison With his. The bittcrest
enemies of his country ha dly dared to
whisper word against the character of
her most distinguished general, while
neutraIs regarded him with an almi
ration Tor his deeds and respect for his
lofty and unselfsh nature which almost
grew into vcneration, and hs own coun-
trymen learned to look up to him with
as much confidence aud esteem as they
eyerielt for Washington, and with an
affection which the cold dcmcanor and
austere temper OF Washington could
never inspire. The death of such u
man, even Mt moment so exciting as
the present, when all thoughts arc alb
sorbed by nearer and present conflict,
would bo felt as misfortune by all who
still retain any recollection of the in
tercst with which they followed the
Virginia campaigns, and by thousands
who have almost forgotten the names of
Fredricksburg and Chanchellcr vile, the
Wilderness and Spottsylvania. Trucr
greatness, lofticr nature, a spirit
more unsuliish, a character phrcr. more
chivarous, the world has rarely, if ever
known. Of stainless life and deep re-
lisIous feeling, yet free from all taint Of
cant aud fanatici.m, and rs dear and
congcnial to the Cavalier Stuart as the
Puritan Stoncwall jackson; unumbi-
tious. but ready to sacrifice all at the
call Of duty; devoted to his cause, vet
never moved by his feelings beyond the
lines prescribed by his Judgment never
provoked by just resentment to punish
want"n cruelty by rcprisals which would
have given character ofnec,llcss sava-
gerry to the wnr-bo,h North and South

BABIES.

We love babies, and every body shc
docs love babies-No man has music in
his soul who don't love babies. Babies
were made to be loved, especially girl
babies, when they grow up. A man
isn't worth sbuck who hasn't a baby,
and the same rule applies to woman
A baby is spring day in winter, hot
house in mid winter; and if it is
healthy, and good nature, and you are
snro it's yours, it is bushel of sun
shine, no matter how cold the weather.
~ man cannot be helpless case so long
us he loves babies-one at time. I'VE
love babies all over, no matter how dir.
ty they are Babies were born to be dirty.
We love babies because they are babies,
and because their mothers were lovcable
and lovely women. Our love for babies
is only bounded by the number of ba.
bics in the world. We always look for
babies, We do with anxiety and paternal
affection; We do, ihleed We do. We
always have sorrowfuI feeling for moth
ers that have no babies, and don't ex..
pect any. Women always look very
"o"u hcaTlcu VINO nave no DADleS; aud
men who have no babies always grum-
bic aud drink whiskey and stay out
nights trying to get music in their souls;
hnt IN ey can't come it. Babies are ba.
hics and nothing can take their place.
Pianos play out, unless there's baby
in the house. We have tried it; we
kh"w and wc say there's nothing like
baby. Babies are productive. sub
stance and We intend to talk more about
babies in tho future. We Intend TO
Ic|l our friends if they want to be happy
in this world they must have q baby in
ihc house Que of their own is prefera
bio Babes stimulate excrtion; they
make young man scratch gravel; and
in this view OF the case, they are all the
while laying golden eggs. A man is
hardly ever worth three red cents until
he gets wife and baby They push
linn to it. While he is making enough
for their support, he is shore to have
something over.
