A Tramp Killed by a Woman.


A Milansport, Pa, dispatch to the
New York Sun OF the 2lst, says: Mrs.
Morgan Calvert, a young widow, who
lives with her brother two miles from
this place. was left alone in her desolate
house for several days last week. On
thursday afternoon a rough fellow called
at the house, and, after asking Mrs. Cal
vert many questions, begged her for 4
supper and a nights lodging. He was
refused. ThereupOn he went away, NUT
tering TO himself. Later Mrs. Calvert
was obliged to go out, and on her return
she saw a man crOUching behind the
door between the sittingroom and her
bedroom He did not seem TO see her,
and she saw him only through q narrow
crack TheIe were firearms in the
house, and Mrs. Calvert knew how to
use them. Without any outcry whatev-
er, she went up stairs and got revolver,
and hiding it under her apron, started
boldly for the room in which the tramp
was lurking. As Mrs. Calvert approach
ed the door, the man threw it open sud
denly, jumped out, and struck her in the
face. Recovering quickly from the blow,
she drew her pistol, upon seeing which
the tramp turned to flee. She fired once
and wounded him, and then started to
pursue him. As he disappeared around
the house she fired again, at which he
turned about and cried, Don't shoot
again, woman, l am = dead man, now" s"
As he spoke he staggered against fence,
and then fell. He begged for aid, and
Mrs. Calvert arranged him in a comfort
able position, after which she started for
a physician. After she approached the
house, the tramp who had first called up
OH her rushed out and escaped; and un-
der the great excitement she fell fainting
near the roadside. Two houes later she
was discovered by friends, who listened
to her story and went to find the man
whom she had wounded. He was lying
dead

A Beautiful Tribute to southern Women,

We have seldom read a more touching
and eloquent tribute TO wOman's humili-
ty and strength than that contained in
the address Of Col. Thomas Hardeman, Of
Ga, delivered at the decoration OF the
Confederate graves in the soldiers ceme
terry, at Atlanta, few days since. said
the eloquent speaker:
'Ifke the captive Hebrews they sing
not now the songs that wake 10 music
sweet their Dayid's harp, for that harp
now hangs upon the willows by the riy-
ers Of Babylon, where they sit down and
weep over fallen Judea. True, they sing
the songs Of marriage feasts, and vintage
ingatherings, yet they come with flower
and tear 10 testify to their sympathy in
the sorrow Of the land, and their undy
ing appreciation Of their gallant dead
What better Offering has sorrow or grief
than the timid hearts ease, or the modest
fern? What purer testimonial OF the
heart than the humble violet, planted by
beauty's hand over the loved ones grave:
As the trees that grew over the grave of
the daughter Of Thracs, at stated periods,
drOpped the tears Of their branches over
her resting place, - do these noble NO
men come when Ing flowers bloom TO
plant the memor -lshTub and shed their
tears of love Over the humble mounds
that tell where cur heroes sleep. For this
4
feeling must be the heart that does not do
homage to our Southern women, the per-
fection of beauty and the glory of the
land. With them patriotism is religion,
and love an element of life. The hour Of
adversely was their hour Of triumph
Does the storm gather and the tempest
sweep? Man, the Bashan oak falls be-
fore the fury of the blast, but woman, the
willow by the waters, fiOurishes, beauti-
ful in her humility and luxuriant in her
sorrow, when the tempest was over. Do
the thunders crash or the lightning
strike Nan, the towering pine is riven
by the stroke. Woman, the humble flow
er, nestled among our garden plants,
emitted sweeter fragrance when the
storm was hushed. Firm, constant, de-
voted patriotism, pure as the waters from
"Chmdara s FOunt," enthused their bOs-
Oms and signalized their lives. Meek,
gentle and cOnfiding; devotion and love
sweet as the fruits of the "Amrita. tree"
characterize their every action. Gener-
GUS and self-sacrificing, they stripped
beauty Of its jewels and home of its luxu-
ries for the success of their cause and the
comfort of their braves. And now that
the flag is unrolled and the jacket of grey
hangs empty on the wall, they bring their
offerings of love for those who
Died for the land they could not save

Ex-GOv. Vance, in his recent address
before the Historical Society at the White
Sulphur Springs, gives an interesting
piece of Confederate history. Abiding
TO the fact that much has been said about
the presence of "an unruly dislOyal In
ion element in North Carolina during the
war, " and ''the prevalence of the unjust
impression that North Carolina could be
easily detached from her duty to her con-
federates, Gov. Vance said that lit seem
ed there were some who presumed upon
it for important purposes" Said he:
''Soon after the failure of the Hampton
Roads conference l was visited by Gov
ernor Graham whose death we so recent
" deplore, who was then Senator of the
Confederate States. After givingall par
ticulars of that conference which had not
appeared in the papers, and the prevail
ing impressions in Congressional circles
about Richmond, etc., he informed me
that a number of leading gentlemen
there, despairing of obtaining peace
through Mr.. Davis, and believing the end
inevitable and not far distant, had re-
ouested him to visit me and urge me as
Governor of North Carolina to take steps
for making separate terms with Mr.. Lin
coin, and thus inaugurate the conclusion.
Governor Graham remarked that he had
agreed to lay their request before me
without promising to add his personal adj
vice thereto.
l asked who these gentlemen were, and
with some reluctance he gave me their
names-chiefly Senators and Representa-
tives in the Confederate States Congress.
! asked Why these gentlemen did not be-
gin negotiations of their own States with
the enemy, and if they would come out
in the papers with the request TO me.
lie said they would not take the inia-
tive. They were so surrounded at home,
and so trammelled by pledges, etc., as to
render it impossible. | declined this pro-
position, of course, and asked him to say
TO those gentlemen, with my compliments
that in the mountains of North Carolina,
where | was reared, when a man was
whipped he had to do his own halloaing;
that the technical word ''enOugh" could
not be cried by proxy. This secret piece
of history win serve to show that there
was faintness of heart and a shifting to-
gether of the knees in other parts of the
South outside of North Carolina.

RandOlph's Religious Services.

John Randolph was a great bible rea
der and was deeply concerned with Telig-
ious subjects. He employed an excellent
and eloquent man, Mr.. Abner ColptOn,
to preach every Sunday to his negroes,
in the large chapel he had erected on his
plantation. When at home he inyaria-
bly, attended these services, taking his
seat by the preacher on the open plat
form, from which the preacher conduct
ed the service. On many occasions
while kneeling beside the preacher, who
was prone TO be carried away by the fe-
vor Of prayer, Randolph would slap him
on the back and call out loudly, ''Colp-
ton, that won't do; that's not sound
doctrine. COlpton, take that back" and
if ColptOn demonstrated, Randolph,
though keeping himself on his knees.
was ready at once for an argument to
maintain his point. No one but Mr.
Colpton, who knew the eecentricitv and
honest motives of the man, could have
borne with these irreyerenf Interruptions
while in the midst of prayer; but Mr..
COlpton, when he found Randolph de-
termined TO argue the point, either grace
fully yielded or proposed TO note the point
and argue it al the dwelling house. To
visitors at the chapel, and they were
many, these scenes were exceeding
ly curious and sometimes absurdlv Iu-
dicrOus. But that was Mr. Randolph's
way.
Ii is said that OH one cold SUNDAY. in
this chapel on Mr.. Randolph's plantation

fashioned way. two lines at 4 time and it
was being Justify sung by the negroes,
MIR. CoiptOn, the preacher, observed a
negro man put his foot, upon which
was a new brOgan, on the hot stove.
Turning toward him, he said in his meas
ured voice, ''You rascal you, you'll burn
your shoe;'' as this was the rhvme of the
exact metre Of the hymn, the negroes all
sung it in their loudest tones. Smiling
at the error, the preacher attempted mild
" to explain by saying:
My colOred friends, indeed YOU are
wrong; l didn't intend that for the
songs" but there it was again, another
rhyme in good measure, so the negroes
sung that too with pious ferYor. Turn
ing to his congregation, the preacher said
somewhat sharply, Il hope you will nor
sing again, until / have had time 10
txplain;' but this only aroused the
negroes, who sang the last word virb
