WASHINGTON CRITIC
WASHINGTON, DECEMBER 27, 1856.
ONE AT a TIME.


One step at q time, and that well placed,
We reach the grandest height;
One stroke at o time, earth's hidden stores
VIII slowly come TO light;
One seed at a time, and the forest grows;
One drop at time, aud the river flows
Into the boundless sea.
One word at time, and the greatest book
Is written and Is read.
One stone at a time, aud the palace rears
Aloft its stately head;
One blow at time, and the trees cleft
through,
And a city will stand where the forest grew
A few short years before.
One foe at a time, and he subdued,
And the conflict will be woD
One grain at time, and the sand OF lie
WIN slowly all be run;
One minute, another, the hours fly;
One day at time our lives speed by
Into eternity.
One grain Of knowledge, aud that well
stored,
Another, aud more on them,
And as time rolls on your mind will shine
With many garnered gem
OF thought and wisdom. And time will tell
zone thing at time, and that done well, /"
Is wisdom's proven rule.

of different fathers. My mother was a
full.blooded Cherokee woman, and was
brought to Hardin County, Kentucky,
when only nine years old. Stonewall
jackson was my brother, four or five
years older than myself and his father
was Richard May, II white man. He
was not married to my mother She
was only girl then.
MY brother jackson must have
been about fifteen years old when he
went away from Hardin County. He
was perfectly white. with blue eyes,
| and hair then slightly inclined to be
| sandy. He was noble looking boy.
| My mother was free and jackson was
born free, but there was rumor in the
peighborhood that came to the ears Of
| Dick May that scared him. He was
afraid that Rush Warthen, trader
would run him down South and sell
him. So one night Dick May came to
my mothers house. and while | was in

William Ii. English of this city, knew
him when he was boy, and saw him
