parlor was filed to overilowing almost
with ladies and gentlemen, all Of whom
will doubtless remember the scene.
Many, in fact large majority OF the
ladies present. were draped in the deep
est black, mourning the useless bloody
sacrifices they had made upon the altar
of Southern liberty. And one was sit
ting Mt the piano singing some sad sweet
air, accompanied by the soft mellow
tones of the instrument. A tall mu-
latto man came to the parlor door with
q little child, and standing there,
watched his little charge wandering
about the room. Attracted TO
the piano, the little girl
drew near, and looking up at
n portrait Of Gen. Beauregard, which
hung over the instrument, she called
his name in sweet childish notes, recog
uizing the likeness instantly The lady
at the piano turned round and faced the
charming little prattler. Observing the
apparent disturbance Of the company,
the servant came forward to remove the
little intruder, when one OF the ladies
present inquired whose child it was.
The servant replied it was Mr.. Davis +.
"What Davis?" said the querist. Pres
ident Davis, madam" was the reply.
Taking the little darling in her arms,
she placed her on the piano, and, with
outstretched arms and the deepest emo
ton. cried out: "Mr. Davis child no,
no! She is the child of every true
Southern mothers heart" and folding
her arms around the little one, whose
father was then expiating our sins in q
Northern dungeon, she wept with un-
controllable emotion. Thereewas ior

From the Sedalia Bazool
Monday evening, as the train bound
east in charge OF Conductor Durham
stopped here for supper, we noticed
Young woman attired In deep mourning
alight from one Of the passenger coaches
and walk down the platform, attended
by q gentleman. She held o handker-
chief to her eyes, and, with her head
resting upon the shoulder OF her escort,
her body quivered with emotion, as the
hot tears ran down her face. We did not
suspect the cause OF her grief until she
passed the baggage master leaning
against his ear. As she did so, she
lifted up her head, and with the tears
still streaming down her pale face, she
said, i'm q tremulous voice: please do
not pile anything on my little onesp'
and then, giving up afresh to the in
tensest grief, she sank her head on the
shoulder Of the gentleman, and passed
back to the coach from which.she came.
AS soon as she was gone from sight,
we stepped up to the baggageman and
inquired the cause Of the lady's action.
He thereupon told US that only three
weeks ago she had passed up the road
with a family Of three little children.
She and they were, at that time, enjoy
ing good health, and were happy In one
another's love. They were beautiful
children and the mother idoliZed them.
Having reached their point OF destina-
ton In the western portion OF Kansas.
they were suddenly taken sick, and the
three little ones died within a few days
OF one another and there was nothing
left to the mother but to bear their
corpses .back to her home in the East,
and 50 they were In the car.
