YORKTOWN.

The northern pictorials are filed
with sketches of real or fanciful scenes
at the historic Virginia village an
hundred years ago. In all these pre-
tending to depict the interview be-
tween Cornwallis and Washington,
the truth of history is, we fear, a little
falsifed by the non-appearance of old
Caesar, a veteran negro who flourish
ed on a plantation near this city over
score of years before the war. He
was one Of that numberless crowd Of
body servants that kept the great
rebel poor by consuming more ratiOns
than a regiment Of quarter-masters
could supply, and prided himself on
the alleged fact that he was just be-
hind Washington when CORVALLIS
gave up his sword. "How did he re-
ceive it," would ask some by-stander,
when old Caesar would open on the
subject. sWell sab Ginral Corvallis
looked mighty sick and ragged JUS
like po white trash, Marse George
was dressed nifty fine and sot on a
big bay boss. When Ginral Con-
wallis 'proach, Marse George, he hilt
out his sword and make curtisey
and offer it to Marse George. What
did your Marse George say? He look
| mitey cole and he draw hisself up an
wave his han t'ward me an he say,
"hand it to my servant sab !'-Ex.

The s.. Adams Messenger makes itself
what it fondly believes TO be merry over the
Mortified improvement Society, charging
that it was organized simply that tie people
might avoid taxationthe theory being that
the payment of subscriptions would not be
called for, though, Of course, they might be
legally set down in the list as debts owing.
The only objections 10 this beautiful theory
of the Messengers are that the society's total
capital stock is one thousand shares Of one
dollar each that some Of the best people in
Mortified are members and officers of the
association; and that it is to commence ac-
tive operations at once. The Messenger
struck the wrong head when 1t threw out It's
