General John G.. Pemberton, who died
a few days ago in Pennsylvania, was a
native of that State, but on the breaking
out of the civil war joined the Confeder-
ates and was assigned to the command
of the army defending Vicksburg. The
capture of that city raised suspicion as
to his loyalty to the Confederate cause,
and we allow Southern paper to state
what then ensued. Says the New Orleans
Times: "The disappointment and sor-
row of the Southern people knew no
bounds at this disaster, and, determined
to have scapegoat, they laid the blame
on Pemberton. He was disgraced, ac-
cused of treason, and driven into q
wretched retirement and obscurity, from
which he never emerged" The Times
also adds that "there was no evidence he
was less true to the Southern cause than
the native.born sons of the SOIL" The
declining years of General Pemberton's
life must have been embittered by the
reflection that his services to the South
ern cause were not appreciated, and that
he was compelled to seek a refuge in tht
State of his nativity, among the people
he fought against.

a NEVADA NOVEL.
tReno Gazette.l

The romances that are put in good
shape by the novelist and newspaper ex.
cite great interest, while those in real
life are going ON all the time, are not
seen by one in dozen, and yet truth is
stranger than fiction. Few plays or
novels have SO much real incident and so
strange changes as recently occurred to
little family in this State. 1t consisted
of the father and mother and bright
little boy. They are well thought OF and
go in good society The father has al
ways been a model man. He uses no
tobacco, never drinks or swears and never
made his wife jealous. They were mar
ried in an eastern State, and lived there
and here in comfort and in apparent hap
piness. Not long ago one of those strange
changes that sometimes come over the
wayward human heart turned the wife's
affections away from her husband to Gen.
ter ON a bachelor neighbor. She asked
her husband to give her divorce, but
he refused as he said he had no grounds.
She told him that she loved another man
better. He said with laugh that that
didn't amount to anything, and the
pleasant relations that had existed be-
tween all the parties remained unbroken,
SO far as the neighbors could see. The
bachelor was very attentive, and the lady
gave him every opportunity while the
husband manifested an utter indifference.
The bachelor waxed rich in cattle and
his trade in merchandise increased, while
the husband, by close attention to bust
ness, was providing for his family and
gathering together few head Of stock
that were adding to his frugal fortune.
The dead lock was at last broken, how
ever, and just about the time the bache-
lor went out of the cattle business by
disposing of 425 head to his rival in the
lady's affections, she was granted di-
vorce. Whether the divorce figured in
the trade as valuable consideration may
not be susceptible of proof, but it is free
ly claimed that it did. The husband
made trip to the county seat, and took
home the divorce and license for mar
riage in the same pocket, and at the we'd
ding of the happy pair he danced and ate
cake, but drank no wine as he seemed
happy enough without it. He kept the
little boy but allows him frequent visits
to his mammals new home. The novel
might close with "and they lived hap
PLY together for ever AFTER" but for the
oldest part of the whole story, which is
to follow. A little infant appeared on
the scene few months after the mar.
riage, and the new husband sent the old
one bill for nurse and doctor fees and
it was promptly paid. Since that the
first husband has been married to a hand.
some young lady, and the only drawback
to her happiness is that her friends jok'
ingly tell her that she is in danger oi
being traded off for band of horses
what this story lacks in detail it makes
I'D in truth.

A touching story of tender love comes
to us from town not many miles from
this place, but which must, under the
circumstances, be nameless. A beautiful
young girl became engaged to gallant
Union officer At the close of the war
ne went to California to seek his fortune
She ignored all advances from scores of
sultors and waited patiently for his re-
turn, feeling confidence in his keeping
true to her. So the years passed, and
even a few gray hairs began to show
themselves among her brown tresses,
while her friends no longer pitied, but
ridiculed her for refusing ali advances
from other desirable sources. Lately her
fidelity was rewarded. The lover Of her
girlhood has returned from California,
bronzed, bearded and millionaire with
awife and twins.-[Evening Wisconsin.
