package under his arm.

A war Comparison.

We cannot forbear one more compari-
son with European standards to show
how much bloodier was the fighting of
our own soldiers. The charge Of the
Light Brigade at Balaklava stands out
in the history of all European wars as
the most murderous ever sustained by a
single organization in battle. 1t has
been sung about, painted in picture and
made the subject of countless pieces of
mastery word-paintiBg.
What are the exact figures? 1t started
upon the charge with 6T3 men. and lost
113 killed 1874 wounded: total PAT, or
1857 per cent of its number This was
its first and only battle. After that It
rested on its laurels. There were scores
of regiments in our army which lost more
heavily than this in single engagements,
after having suffered more severly be-
fore, and which went on to other battles,
where they suffered still more.
Take for example, the First Minnesota.
which, after having fought valiantly at
the first Bull Run. on the peninsula, at
the second Bull Run, Antietam, Freder-

The Fortnne Id Opportunlty.

The nature of every man is so mys
terious. so unreasonable and unfathom-
able, that what seems TO others the
narrowest mental organization may
contain within itself unexpected re-
sources. This is the hidden cause of
the invariable appearance Of great men
in times of national trial and disturb
ance. At such times quiet, unpretend-
ing individuals come TO the front by the
forces of nature that formerly lay con-
cealed within them. and they win fame,
perhaps immortal fame, like Cromwell,
Grant, Lincoln, for qualities that
would scarcely have attracted notice in
private life and IN ordinary times. The
TACT of such appearances of great men
ought to warn us all against the pre-
sumption of setting bounds to the
future of any one, except in matters
where technical excellence is q neces-
sity. If man can not play the fiddle
at 30 years of age, we may safely pre-
dict that be will never become an ac-
complished violinist, but when there is
no technical obstacle, tine limits can not
be fixed.
Scott fell into novel-writing accident
ally, and II very trivial circumstance Ia
search for fishing tackle that made him
stumble upon the unfinished manu-
script of "Wayerly'') caused HIM to re-
sumo it after a first abandonment.
Geoge Eliot spent her time in trans
lating German philosophical books. not
at all slspecting the existence of her
own gift as a novelist, until Lewes
urged her to make experiments. A pos
sibIe external cause in either of these
cases would have left the gift dormant
forever. If Byron had not appeared
Scott would have remained the first
poet, so that he would not have turned
to prose, for Shelley and Keats counted
for hardly anything in those days, and
Wordsworth was unpopular. Ii Miss
Evans had married rich, ordinary man
the intellectual side of her nature
would have overshadowed the artistic,
and she would never have been any
thing more than student and expound-
er OF philosophy.
Unthinking people express an astonish-
ment at exam pies Of this kind, which is,
in itself. unreasonable. They think it is
very surprising that any one should
succeed in pursuit for which he has
not been trained, but that never hap

life.
Thomas Lee, in his capacity of Presi-
dent of the Council, was governor OF
the colony in l749, and at his princely
seat of .'Stratford. called after the
English home in Essex, dispensed the
liberal hospitality OF the typical Vir-

given Of 'Stratford's'' original splendor,
its hundred rooms, main building and
four offices. each of the later contain
ing fifteen rooms, and its stables for a
hundred horses. II was burned during
the life time OF President Lee, and the
Government rebuilt it, while Queen
Caroline contributed something from
her own privy purse, sending also a
complimentary letter to this esteemed
colonial magnate.
Four sons of Thomas Lee made their
impress on the history of their country
during the Revolutionary era. OF these
the most distinguished undoubtedly was
Richard Henry Lee, the eminent states
man. There was not wanting how

unworthy of his knightly race. He was

convention that ratified the Constitu-
ton, and he was three times elected
Governor of Virginia.

One of the most conspicuous of the
royalist partisans, who held up Ber-
keley's hands in the early days of the
English civil war, was Colonel Richard
Lee, the first of the name in Virginia.
There had been Henry Lee, probably
his brother, in the Virginia Company.
Richard Lee was the seventh SON Of Sir
Richard Lee, of Hulcott. The family
was an ancient one-the Lees of the
Lordship of Lee. in Chester County. Sir
Henry Lee, of ''Quarrendon and Ditch
ley" Knight of the Garter in Queen
Elizabeths reign, of whose vow of chiv-
alary to the queen there is an account
in Chambers Book of Days." was the
original also OF the famous portrait
''Sir Henry Lee and His Dog, Bevis."
The tradition is, that the dog saved his
masters life, which was endangered by
a treacherous servant, who entered his
room at midnight with the intent to
murder aud rob. As a monument of his
gratitude Sir Henry had the portrait
taken. 1t is preserved at ''Ditchley,"
now tile seat of the Viscounts Dillon,
