For Englishmen especially, the story OF
the American cival war must always
possess the most powerful attractions
On both sides the principles involved
were those which most deeply affect our
own national feeling; the language the,
race, the ideas Of the combatants were
our own. The army Of Northern Vlr-
ginia in particular, from the nature of
the defense 1t had to maintain, and the
character 1t earned and sustained, en-
listed, and will for generations continue
to enlist, the strongest English
sympathies. 1t fought with English
tenacity, English recklcssness of consc-
quences, English indifference to odds,
what was from the first very doubtful
and soon became an evidently losing
battle. Once only was 1t fairly beaten
in open field; over and over again. both
Oh the offensive and on the defensive,
it proved itself more than Il match for
apparently overwhelming odds. It's
composition resembled very closely that
Of our own volunteer regiments. It's
chiefs were men whose personal charac-
ter and public conduct displayed all the
virtues on which Engllshmcn most pride
themselves; as the people Of Virginia
are I.erhaps the most thoroughly Eng
lish Of all the offsets which the mother
race has planted In every part of the
world. General Lee was M perfect
type Of the ideal English soldier and
gentleman as history can show. "Stone-
wall Jackson reproduced, with many Of
Its ecccntrsltes, but scarcely one Of lts
worse and meaner features, the historic
character Of the Puritan leaders. Stuart,
Fitzhugh Lee aud Wade Hampton re-
minded those who closely followed their
career Of the finest examples Of English
Cavalier loyalty snd simplicity.

n Town In Ashes.
Especial to The Commonwealth. !

SuNBURY, Pa, May l5.-The scene at
Milton this morning beggars description.
Nothing remains except the black and
desolate ruins of the once prosperous
town. The people spent last night in
the houses that were left, namely, the
nail-works and planing-mail. The en-
tire number Of buildings destroyed was
G66, and only two places of business es-
capped destruction. The vaults and books
of the banks were uninjurcd. The peo-
pie of the town are almost entirely desti-
tule. Provisions have been pouring in
to the town from the surrounding coun-
try.
Loss OF LIFK.
The body Of the strange man who was
burned last night was identified this
morning as Mr.. Angey, He was
eighty-6ve years old, and was attempt
ing to save the stable at the poor-house.
Mrs. Sticker died during the night from
fright. The fire originated from sparks
from the saw-mill attached to the car
works.
