From gentleman just from Rockdalc, the
reporter learned of deed of generosity that
ought to be chronicled, not only in tho spirit
of state pride for our people, but for those
individuals who performed it and yet refuse
to allow their names to be made public. II
appears that Mr.. Prince, formerly of
Alabama, wealthy before the war but reduced
to poverty by its effects, dying recently in
Rockdsle. and leaving behind an INSULT.
cheney Of funds to meet tho charges..of q
respectable funeral, some of tho good citizens
of that town subscribed enough to purchase
for him coffin and other needed things,
amounting in all to some $500, and also tho
Gum of $50 to pay tho express charges on
the remains TO his family in Alabama; also
enough TO make some compensation TO two
clever physicians who attended him in his
Illness. Norly charity ludeth an abado in

tho part of road overseer5, nor an apathy
upon the part Of persons subject to road

of road supervisors with which the roads

A recent visitor to Rome writes, sat
last all the Others were gone, and we knelt
at the feet of the Pope while monsignore

names. l was surprised at the genial ex-
preston of his face, the kndliness of his
keen black eyes, so poorly portrayed in his
photographs. His robe was Of white CASH
mere, gold chain hung around his neck,
and on his head was o white skull cap,
fringed with bis silvery hair.
His feet in their crimson slippers rested
upon a cushion, and people kissed the golc
cross that was embroidered upon them. He
sat in an arm chair, upon which was
thrown a scarlet cloth, and an attendant in
the back ground waited with his white
mantle and crimson velvet hat corded with
gold. The marchesa held his hand and
spoke with him for several minutes, and
then he turned and extended it to me, and
| kissed the large amethyst of his ring, and
looked up into his kindly eyes.
The marchesa having repeated that l
was an American, and that | desired His
blessing for myself and all the family, he
laid his hand upon my head, and, turning
to her, said: IAN American, and how
then did you come to know her 9'' "Holy
Father, she lives in my house," was the
reply. ''She is good, added his Holiness,
with merry smile in his eyes, and l, not
wishing to rest under false pretenses, said {:
'Beatssmo Padre sono Protestant, "
whereupon he made a little wry face,
laughed, shook his head at me, and lad
his hand in blessing upon my head a second
time.
