An Interview with Lee.

Of all the anecdotes told of Gen Lee, we have not read or heard any that tells oi the o,,;et humor of his character, and this want we can supply. While the army were camPed around Hagentown in the first Maryland campaign, we were serving with tue rear guard. commanded by an officer of the first Georgia regulars. For three days the guard and some sixty prisoners had suosisted on apples green corn, etc. and no rations had been issued to us in that time. In approach ing Uagerstown we passed by the tent of Gen. Lee. and he was walking up and down before it, apparently in deep thought
 The Georgia officer said: II will % to Gen Lee, and complain that have no ra' tions, and ask for an order for some po not disturb him, he has enough of care" We advised Yes, will,n said the officer, and he halted the command and approached the General, who looked up as he la'nc near, and , said: "Well, Captain, what is it l'
 "General." said the officer, "for three days and nights have been here with guard o' i i00 men and co prisoners, without an ounce | of food whatever
 Rapidly Gen. Lee replied; "My dear sir, i' | it possible ? You are the man that hay' 1 been searching for. Walk into my tent al once, and impart to me the secret by whici you subsist men without food. It is a pro blem that has given me more concern thar all others With your knowledge we cai dispense with these long supply trains, an, all the trouble we are at 10 obtain food. Wall in and let me hear so valuable fact which i sure 10 obtain our success"
 | The officer of the Georgia regulars looke' at Lee m amazemeut and made no reply. II
 lifted his hat and turned to his command
 and the word Forward !" rang with stnrd
 emphasis from his lips. From that time for
 ward until his annihilated regiment left tn
 Army of Northern Virginia for Macon [ recuperate, he was never known to complai or grumble, and radical defect tn his chaI , acter was completely cured by the qnie
 bumor of Gen. Lee.

Heavy Damages.

The Northwestern Stage Company CruI- Ier, Parker X Col. recently sustained suit, at Boise City, Idaho, in which lady named Emma E. Cox was plaintiff, who, on the Zo'h of September last, received injuries by the upsotting of enc of the Company's coaches that have made her A cripple for life. The lady claimed s2o,oco general and seoo 'pe- Cial damages, which were reduced to sl5,Ooo general and s2s0 special damages, by the iury. Defendants claimed that the overturn- ing was an accident which could not be avoided. They also produced a release, signed by plaintiff, releasing, in consideration of Slo0, all claims against the Company "from the beginning of the world, np to the date of signing of the release" Mrs CoN declared that she had moi resl said release and the jury paid no attention to it.

Shall We Meet Again.

The following is said to be one of the most brilliant articles ever written by the lamented George D. Prentice:
 But the fiat of nature is memorable. There is no appeal for relief from the great law which dooms us to dust. We flourish and fade as the leaves of the forest, and the flow CTS that bloom and wither in day have no trailer hold upon life than the mightiest mon- arch that ever shook the earth with his foot steps. Generations of men will appear and disappear as the grass, and the countless mul- titudes that throng the world to-day will tomorrow disappear as the footprints on the shore.
 Men seldom think of the great event of death until the shadow falls across their own path, hiding from their eyes the traces of loved ones, whose living smiles were the sun ig ht Of their existence. Death is the great antagonist of life, and the cold thought of the tomb is the skeleton of all feasts. We do not want to go through the dark valley, although its passage may lead to Paradise and with Charles Lamb, we do not want to lie down in the grave, even with princes for our bedfellows.
 In the beautiful drama of Ion, the instinct of immortality, % eloquently uttered by the death ot the devoted Greek, finds deep response in every thoughtful soul. When about to yield his young existence sacrifice l to fate, his beloved Clemantha asks if they shall not meet again, to which he replies: '' I asked that dreadful question of the hills that seemed eternal-of the clear streams that flow foreyer-of the stars among whose fields of azure my raised spirit hath walked. As look upon thy living face, feel that there is something in thy love that cannot really per ish. We shall meet again, Clemantha.

We want people 10 come here, but we do not care to see them come on "Col.

This Is too much, but is is not tithe of wha, he says and promises We have mines-both quartz and placer---oi great richness and extent-but we'll venture Co say that "Coi.

New Jersey.

So long n little Jersey was Democratic, it used to be the fashion, among Radicals, to talk about her as if she were foreign State, but, now, ve presume, every Radical will speak of her in terms of endearment, as the State Of New Jersey.

HEBREW CHURCH. REFORMS The re-
cent agitation Of reform in the Hebrew
church has, says the Washington Chron'
icle ofthe IStI ul'ino. al last manifested
IL elf in n separation of the Orthodox
from the Reformed Israelites in this cry.
The f.,rmer have withdrawn from the
congregation, their reason being the re
cent intrnduction of an organ in the syna-
gogne, as also the omission Of certain
portions Of the service, and the failure
of the refnrmers to attend the meetings
on the Sabha h day. (our Saturdays

ably outnurnber those retaining oriho-
