A WOMAN'S HEROISM.

Il. /. White relates in the Providenc,
Press the following incident of the war
, described to him, in company with Gen
Garfield, on Southern railway train b,
the lady who was the heroine of the
story.
1.-The lady was resident of Memphis
returning from visit to Connecticut
and her neices were to spend the winter
with her III the South. During the wal
she had lived in that part of Kentucky
through which we were riding, and Gen.
Garfield had seen important military
service in the same section. She was
young in 1861, and her lover had gone
into the Confederate army. In one of
the Kentucky battles he was desperate
ly wounded, and as the Confederates
were defeated, he had to be left upon
the field. His sweetheart, with a de-
votion which is the glory of her sex, ac-
companled only by child, went to the
field almost before the battle was over
to find him and to save his life. She
said that she never attempted to de-
scribe the horrible scenes she witnessed
upon that battlefield, although they
were stamped indelibly upon her memo
ry. Her heart was strong and her pur-
pose so determined that she walked
among the dead and dying in search of,
her loved one, almost unmoved, and was
finally rewarded by finding him. He
was nursed back to life, and subseq
ly became the husband of the heroic
woman wnom even the terrors of the
battlefield conld not keep from his side
in his hour Of great peril. The most
touching part of the lady's narrative,
which was modestly related, with moth
ing in her tone or manner to show a
consciousness of having done anything
but commonplace act, was the tribute
she paid to the Union officers and sol.
diers with whom she came in contact.
She had no words too eloquent to de-
scribe their chivalry and gentleness to-
ward her, or their readiness even at |
such a time, when everything was con-
fusion, to give her all the assistance in
their power. The Yankee was ever af.
ter different character in her estima-
tion from what he had been betore.'

How the Millionaire Outwitted q

! There are several gentlemen in thi

"Wel1, young lawyer of this city
! who was quite talented and who had a
very good practice at the bar met Miss
Robb at party one night and fell des-
perately in love with her.
''With her permission, he called on
her at her house, and in due course of
time his suit had prospered so fayora-
oly that he proposed marriage to her.
lhe girls affections had been seriously
engaged, and she accepted the proposal
without hesitation. It is due to the
young man to say that he was not acsu-
ated III the prosecution of his suit bv
any sordid motives.
'fie was as deeply in love as mortal
man ever was. When Robb heard nf
the condition of affairs he was fnrious
and immediately set to work to break
up the whole thing. But it was no use
the young people had made up their
minds to get married, and it actually
looked as if they would carry the dav,
But Robb resorted to harsh means
and suddenly sent his daughter to Mo.
olie. Her lover heard of her wherea-
oouts and followed. RObb was inform
Ell OF his departure and Immediately
started IN pursuit and arrived at Mobile
just IN time to break off private mar
riage.
"He thereupon changed his tactics:
assured the lovers that as they had re. |
solved to marry that he wonld inter.
pose no further objections to the con-
summation OF their purposes. He adj
Vlsed tue young man to return to New
Orleans, stating that he would follow
with his daughterin few days, 50 as to
avoid scandal.
The young man left, and the next
lay Robb, accompanied by his unwil-
ing daughter, departed for Paris. The
TWO remained there until the daughter
vas married. Her former lover. on
earning OF heT marriage, went to Cali
ornia, where he died shortly after

The marriage was a most unfortu-
late one, and Robb regretted ever af.
erwards that he had ever opposed any
obstacle to his daughters wishes in the
lrst instance. He said in extenuation
