SOMEBODY'S DARLING.
i Story That Nay be Full of Interest In
Some Southern Homo.

The battle of Shiloh was fought on the
9th and,7th days ofApri. 1862. On the 9th
of that month, with party of Federal
officers, I was visiting the field, and
short distance in advance of where the
main action had been fought, in an open
space, which had escaped the flames that
had swept over portion of the ground
we discovered dead fair-headed South
ern soldier apparently not more than
eighteen years of age, his clothing con-
sisting of "a loose jacket, a blouze aud
pants of plain homespun material, either
gray or brown, and a slouched hat. He
lay upon his back, his right arm extern
ded out toward hissmoEed- stained musket,
which his powder -blackened lips, and the
nearly empty cartridge-box, were mute
evidences that he had faithfully done his
duty as a soldier. The trunk of tree
about eighteen inches in diameter, which
had been severed by a cannon shot, lay
directly across his legs Immediately be-
low the knee, holding him firmly to the
ground. This had evidently occurred
after deaih, as there was no indication of
a struggle or of suffering.
One of the party observing something
protruding from the dead soldiers blouse
above the belt, stopped and drew fourth
knit blue yarn mitten, on the wrist
of which was embroided in yellow
yarn the name, "W. Hail." The nit
ten was laid back upon his breast and we
passed on. As I reached the fringes of
undergrowth that hemmed in the small
open space in the timber, I turned to
take last look at the silent sleeper,
and the scene was an impressive one.
That calm young face turned up to the
bright sunlight, the auburn culrs lying
in confusion around his head, with the
background of shrubbery, now green
with the coming spring, presented said
quiet picture-such peaceful contrast
with the dread surroundings of the burned,
blackened bodies of men and horses,
shattered trees, broken artillery carriages
and equipments-an oasis, as it were, amid
the wreck of battle that, after lapse
of sixteen years, it has remained vividly
before me. Perhaps through your pa
per this may reach the notice of some of
the friends Of the person named.
Although I cannot recollect that there
was anything on the body to indicate
the regiment to which "W. Hall" belon-
ged, the impression left upon my mind
is that he was from Mississippi. He was
doubtless somebody's darling, who, equip
ped by loving hands, and followed by
mothers blessing, went forth to the
wars, to be thenceforth numbered among
the "unreturning brave"

A MIDNIGHT SCENE IN JERsUALEM.
One evening, while strolling about
Jerusalem, I met strengthening pro.
cession, headed by band ofunschooled
musicians. At the end of the line q
group of men were carrying on their
shoulders a rude bower, in which
maiden of thirteen, deeply veiled, reclin-

come here at midnight you will see the
bridegroom" And sure enough-"Lo
at midnight the bridegroom cometh"-
he came, youth of IA. The bride was
waiting for him, still yelled, at his IA
theirs house. He had never seen her
face, the marriage having been arranged
by mutual friend. He raised the veil
and exclaimed, "Yes, thank God" and
his friends went home rejoicing. Had
he meant no." he would have said
"Bosh ?" and his friends would have
gone home sad. The future Of Jerusa-

Jews are to become united there as the
grandest commonwealth the world ever
saw. Already Jew, Rothschlld, owns

: Senator Conkling. writing recent

- Senator Conklng, writing recently
to colorcd clergyman in New York,
said that he "longs for the day, and for
occations TO hasten the day, when in
America the color of mans skin will no
longer measure his right to a fair days
wages or his right to any other priyi-
leges which three wars have been fought
TO establish, and which the constitu-
tion of the United States now ordains." "
1t will be observed, however, that while
the stalwart Roscoe is groaning over this
"color of mans skin" he has never even
so much as limited that the large negro
population of New York State have any
right to be represented in Congress by
men of their own color, or to have any
State officers. Mr.. Conlsling is like bis

voIrSn Gen. 'Jubal A. Early contri-

S1ON Eh&AIb OAShCOAN0 y >6A33h
WoUSD.-aen. Jubal A. Early contri-
butes to the Southern Historical Society
papers, an elaborate article on the woun-
ding of Stonewall Jackson, which will
be read with painful interest by every
ex-Confederate, 1t includes long and
plainly written narrative by Capt. r. e.
Wilbourn, Of Mississippi, who was the
only officer actually with Gen. Jackson
at the time be was wounded. In the
words Of Gen. EARLY: ellis account of
the whole affair shows how very errone-
Gus are generally received accounts; and
it now appears that instead of riding to
the front to reconnoiter the enemy and
then imprudently galloping back toward
his own lines, Gen. Jackson was slowly
riding to the front, while making every
effort to hurry forward the troops, when
he was fred on by portion of his own
men on the right (south) of the road,
and obliquely from the rear, and that
then the horses of his party that were
not shot down, wheeled to the left, and
he galloped into the woods on the left TO
escape the fire, when he was fired upon
by another body of troops on the north
side of the road" 1t was by this last fire
that Gen. Jackson was wounded. One
ball struck him in the left arm two
inches below the shoulder joint, shatter-
ing the bone and severing the chiefartery;
second passed through the same arm
between the elbow and the wrist, max
making its exit through the hand, and a
third ball entered the palm of his right
hand about the middle, and passing
through broke two of the bones. All the
circumstances surrounding the wound
ing, as we'll as those Immediately pre-
ceeding and succeeding, are told with
graphic distinctness and picturesque de.
tail, and Gen. Early's articles, although
apparently intended only as a reply
to some erroneous statement of Gen
Revere, in his book entitled excel and
Saddle" is really most valuable contri,
button to tbs history fthe war.
