A Mothers Touch.

In one of the fierce engagements
near Mechanicsville a young Lieute-
nant OF a Rhode Island battery had
his right foot so shattered by frag-
ment Of a shell that, on reaching Wash
ington after one IF those borrlbe am
bulance rides and a journey of a week $
duration, he was obliged to undergo
aupitation of the leg He telegraph
ed home, hundreds of miles away, that
all was going we'll, and with soldier 5
fortitude composed himself to- bear
his sufferings alone. Unknown to him
his mother who had read the report of
his wound. was Fastening to see him.
She reached Washington at midnight
aud the nrrses would have kept her
from seeing her son until morning
One sat by his side, tanning him as he
slept, her hand on his feeble fuctua-
ting pulse. But what woman's heart
olld resist the pleading of a motheIt
then! In the darkness she was final
" allowed to glide in and take a place
at his side She touched his pulse as
the nurse had done. Not word had
been spoken, but the sleeping boy
opened his eyes and said "That feels
like my mothers hand Who is this
beside me? 1t is my mother Turn
up the gas and let me see my mother.
The two dear faces met in one long
joyful, sobbing embrace. The gallant
fellow, just Il, had his leg amputated
on the last day of his tn ee years aer
vice, underwent operation after opera
ton, and at last when death drew nigh,
resigned himself in peace, saying: 1

ed into the house, and irnplored to
make himself at home. Huge logs

DISASTROUS FIRE!
The Valley Wooden Mills Burn
ed to the Ground

On Tuesday last, between two and
three o'clock, the wool-picker in the
upper story of Timberlake & Maslin's
factory, by the friction of the machin-
cry threw spark into pile Of greas
ed wool, which ignited Immediately
and set the factory On fire. AS the
building contained large quantities of
combustible material the flames spread
rapidly. The factory hands and 9TH
ers exerted every effort to save the
building, but in vain, as the wind car
ried the flames to every part of the
structure. After finding the factory
doomed, the entire force endeavored
to move the goods to place Of safety,
which was to a certain extent accom-
plished. It is impossible to state the
exact loss, which must be very heavy.
We hope, however, it will be covered
by the insurance. The proprietors as
well as the employees have the SYM
pathy of the entire neighborhood.
