Mrs. Geo. H. Smith.

The many friends of Mrs. Sue Glassell
Smith, wife of Hon. Geo. H. Smith, will
be pained to learn of her death, which
occurred in this city yesterday, Nov. IS,
at lam. Mrs. Smith was native Of
Madison county. Virginia. Her first
marriage was with Col. Geo. s. Patton,
Of the 22d Virginia Volunteers, who fell
in command of a brigade of the Confed-
crate army at Winchester, Va, in 1854
The children of Mr.. and Mrs. Patton
are well known and highly esteemed res
idents of this city-Mr. Geo. s. Patton,
Mrs. 7. B. Brown, Mr.. Glassell Patton,
aud Miss Susie Patton.
After the close of the war the de-
ceased was united in marriage with Col
Geo. H. Smith, who had been friend
from her youth, and with him she re-
moved to Los Angeles, where she resid.
ed till the time Of her decease. This
marriage was blessed with two children,
Elton and Annie Smith, who, with the
former children, now mourn the loss Of a
mother who was their ideal of all excel
lence and goodness. Mrs. Smith, as
friend, wife and mother, was beloyed in
remarkable degree by all who had the
pleasure Of her acquaintance. She was
sister Of Andrew Glassell. Esq, of this
city, and Of the late Capt. W. T. Glas-
sell, and had large circle Of friends on
both sides of the continent, to whom
she was warmly attached. and who will
unite in tears at the knowledge that her
gentle presence and refined hospitality
is hereafter only a memory. Many per-
sons have had longer periods of usefulness
than the deceased, but none were more
constant and active in duty, and none
ever passed to the visions and joys of the
ascended life more honored and beloved
than Mrs. Sue GLAssELL SMITH.

she will learn to love me? We hardly

WASHINGTON, April Ill never dreamed
of giving up my American citizenship" said
Stone Pasha General c. P. Stone) to the
Journal correspondent, "and when l entered
the service of the Khedive of Egypt thirteen
years ago it was with the distinct understand
ing that was to remain a citizen of the Uni
ted States and be free at any time to retire
and return to my home. took an oath to
defend Egypt and fight for Egypt against the
arms of every nation excepting the United
States"
This is the general who was in command
of that portion of the Union army on the
Potomac, above Washington, in the fall and
winter of 1S61-62 1t was General Stone who
started General Baker across the river one
night in October, 1861, to drive the rebels
from Leesburg. With less than 1000 men
Baker attempted to dislodge 1000. rebels un-
der General Evans and was driven back to
the river at point where the rocks
rise straight from the waters edge to height
of seventy-fve or one hundred feet, and
hundreds of brave boys went over the edge
of the precipice to be drowned or shot while
trying to escape. The blame of the slaugh-
ter was laid at the door of General Stone,
and he was publicly disgraced. Cooler judg-
ment reversed the verdict, and the coun-
try became satisfied that he was not al
together responsible for the Balls Bluff
slaughter. General Bakers rashness and free
Interpretation of orders had much to do with
it. General Stone recovered his lost prestige
i'll part but he was glad of the chance to en-
ter the service of a foreign power, and
thirteen years of his life have been spent in
Egypt. He was warm personal friend of
General Sherman, and the two officers have
kept up correspondence during all these
years General Stone is a strikingly hand
some man, with courtly manners. He finds
everything greatly changed since his depart
ure, but scores of his old army comrades
have called on him to assure him of their re-
gard and continued esteem.
