nent citizens, and will find teaching in the
school others Of the professors in the institute
and college, and a number of students, and
some OF the most accomplished young ladies
OF the town. If he asks about the school he
will be told, " this is Stonewall Jacksons old
school." The facts are, that this colored Sun
day school was organized by Stonewall Jack
son when he was quiet professor in the Vir-
ginia military institute, that he took the
deepest interest in its success (never going to
il or from it without earnest secret prayer J
and that when called into the army he ex.
pressed himself more 10th to leave his colored
Sunday school than any Of his other public
duties. His deep interest continued to the
day of his death, and he was never known to
write letter to Lexington without making
special inquiry after his colored Sunday
school. - Virginia Letter.
