some time ago some English admirers
Of Stonewall Jackson had Foley, the
SCULPTOR, carve statue of the Confeder-
ate leader. On its arrival at Richmond,
few days ago, it was set up With all
due ceremony, and now contemporary
finds text for a few remarks on the
unconquered spirit of the South in the
fact that the British flag and the flag Of
the State OF Virginia alone draped the
statue. The writer thinks the flag of
the Union might with propriety have
been used in the ceremony Of unwilling
the statue of the great raider who fell
at Charlottesville. If it had, ten to
one, some other journal Of the same class
would have declared it a proclamation OF
the stars and stripes, but that is usually
the way when community start te
please themselves. II would be just al
appropriate to drape Lincoln's statue il
Philadelphia with a Confederate flag, al
to festoon the base OF Jackson's statu
in Richmond with the National ensign
1t is very likely the Richmond citizen
never intended the slightest disrespect
their country's flag by leaving it out
the ceremonial, they showed good tas'
by using the ensign of the country pr
senting the gift and their own State &C
ors. They ignored the stars and bar
and We are certainly Of the opinion tn
it shows no hate on their part towar
the flag or the country to omit wayi
the stars and stripes. We fail TO
where they disgraced themselves, a
think it requires cause OF more pron
hence to make Northern men "resol
anew that while perfect justice should
done toward every individual in
nation, still that justice to themsel'
demands that power should never ag'
be given to those who tried 80 fiercely
destroy our nation, aud who, since th
defeat, have kept with SO bad ia
their parol."

4 Washington Character.

A Washington correspondent OF the
Cincinnati Gas>tk writes: "A lew days
ago there stepped hriskiy into ihs library
OF one of the Government buildings q
hare featured woman, whose age might
range anywhere between sixty and
seventy. Her face looked like pine
knot. so weather beaten and tough and
bronzed was il, but it wore such an APP
pearance Of frank, hearty good humor,
lighted By shrewd intelligence, that /
could not fail to observe and be interested
ia her. Her black dress was short and
old fashioned In is cut, its only trimming
being feeble attempt at narrow, scant
ruIie round the bottom. Over this was q
white muslin overdress, spoflessly white,
but very full and totally uHioOped. Eyi-
IDENTIFY the hardy-iooking feminine had no
sympathy with the pull backs OF the
period. On her head was queer bonnet,
whose shape and trimmings no sacrile-
gious hand had touched, upon altering
thoughts intent for many years. The
little woman, standing erectly up, asked
in a brisk tone for Hugh Miller, gazed
at her IN perplexed surprise. Was she
asking for herself, or Wac she sent by
some one for the book mentioned, After
she made her exit turned TO the librarian
and remarked that the woman just de-
parted struck me a. being something OF
character. Indeed she is was the re-
ply. remarkable character with very
romantic history Anything tinged with
romance always held my interest en-
chained, so prepared myself for treat
while listening TO the recital OF this
woman's life and career. She was .
Scotch woman by birth, and while
bonnie Highland lassie married brave
and intelligent young soldier in the En-
glish army His fate she has followed for
nearly half century, going TO Egypt, To
Constantinopie, to France, to Africa, and
finally to America, where her husband,
obtaining an honorable discharge from
the English army, enlisted under Gen.
Scott, and helped to fight our Mexican
battles During this campaign she was
al,nOsi the only woman in the army, saw
ing Mrs. Gen. Hunter, then the wife OF q
subordinate officer In our civil war her
husband lost his eyesight through the
effects of some conclusion, and his devoted
companion spent sill Of her leisure time
and spare money In purchasing books TO
read TO her afflicted husband. She was
company laundress, and with the means
thus obtained, coupled with her husbands
pension, and demonstrating the extent OF
Scotch thriftiness, she provided for her
husbands mental and physical wants with
uniagging zeal and devotion. After
awhile some celebrated oculist partly re-
stored the soldiers eyesight. The Gov
eminent gave the woman a mental position
and the man something TO do as messen-
ger and they still continue to devour the
best books in the library, always asking
for standard or philosophical works, and
in their neat and humble home they to-
gether read and discuss the thoughts OF
the great writer's"

We have quite number Of different
species of Ichncumon flies which deposit
their eggs upon the Larvae of wood-boring
insects These borers In trees one would
suppose were quite secure against the at
lacks OF their parasitic enemies which
cannot follow them into their retreats or
dig them out, but nature has provided
way TO reach them, although incased with
in apparently pretty solid wood walls.
For instance, the sugar.maplc tree Is IN
tested with quite a large wood-borer,
which ia the larva of the most beautiful
and snowy Of our long-horn beetles, the
Gigc0bius (CLYtus) spect0sus OF Say. This
borer frequently passes upward in the SOL
id wood of the tree two TO three Inches
from the outside; still it is not perfectly
secure from its enemies when thus shut
in, for the female Of the great lchneumon
fly the Pim1Jid iundtOr, las an Svipositor
three TO four inches long, furnished with
little saw on the end, by the aid OF which
she can make hole straight through
bark and wood TO the said borer and
place an egg upon It, have caught this
insect ia the act, as many others have
done, but the wonder" part OF the OPP
eration-at least 10 good many observers
is how she knows the exact location Of
the said b0rer In the tree. 1 confess that
this puzzled me at first, and notice that
correspondent of the Western Rurdtin writ
| ing of this insect week or two since says
III Is indeed wonderful power that enables
| this insect 10 discern its victims, concealed,
as they are, within the trunks of trees
But this Iehneumon does not discern its
vIctlm," but it merely hears 1t gnawing
| the wood, and knows its location by the
sound alone. Ii Is not to be supposed
| that the human ear is quite as acute as
those of an insect like the Pimpla, created
expressly for seeking It's victim by sound;
still most wood boring Larvae, while feed
| ing, make sufficient noise TO be distinctly
heard If the ear is placed directly against
the tree or stick Of timber in which they
are at work. have tested this a hun
bred times where the Larvae OF the Prton-
,d9, Saperdas, Eiaphids0ns and similar
| insects were at work upon the trees. IL
anyone desires TO hear the music of wood
borers more clearly than is given of from
a growing tree, they have only to bring a
stick OF powder-posted hickory or oak
| from the wood pile and set u on end In a
warm room for few days place an end
upon the bare floor, and ii there are Dor
ers in the stick the grinding OF the mill
will soon be heard clear and distinct, even
at several feet distant.
The Psmpla iunator is not one of those
creatures who, Having ears. hear not"
but II uses the organs given II by the Gre.
ator, which is more than can be said Of
some individuals belonging TO higher
order of beings. -Rurat Nsu Yorker.
