STEPNEY.

At the funeral of Mrs Caroline Gilbert
at Stepney Depot, last week Thursday,
it was pitiful to see the poor little foster
child. A few years ago, its mother died
of consumption and this noble woman,
over so years old, took him out of pity
and, when friends tried to dissuade her,
she said, ''Why do you fear. | throw
out of my door every day more than that
little child will eat" and no mother ever
loved a child more. When lifted up to
look at her face for the last time, how
little he realized what h. had lost. Her
heart and hand were open at all times to
the needy. She needs no eulogy, for
actions speak louder than words.

BATTLE HORRORS.
The Burning to Death ot Wounded Men
at Chancellorsville

Among the horrors of the battle of
Charlottesville was the catching tire
Of an abats and the burning Of wounded
soldiers both union aud confederate.
A wounded man months afterward told
Mr.. Goss who writes the story in his
Recollectious of Private, that he
watched the flames and counted the
minutes when thay would strike him.
but was Unexpectedly saved by little
pool of water which arrested the fire
Just in season. Another mana hospital
comrade said to Mr.. Goss:
IL was among the wounded Just out
side the abatiS when it got atire. This
leg YOU see was as limp as II dish-rag,
but | couldn't see the poorfellows burn
in that way So, using my musket for
Il crutch, began to pull away the burn
ing brushwood and got some OF them
out.
Il tell You 1t was hot. Them pines
was full OF pitch and resin aud made a
fire as hot As a furnacel | was work
ing away, pulling out Johnnies and
Yanks when one of the wounded john
MES pale as ghost toddled up and
began to help. He allowed he want
goin to have n Yankee beat him at
anything.
The underbrush cracked and
roared, and the poor fellows howled and
shrieked when the ire got at them; and
by and by another coufederate-I guess
he was a stragger-came up and began
to help, too, and we fought the tire all
together.
I'VE were trying to rescue q young
fellow in gray--the fire was all around
him The last | saw of that fellow was
his face. 1t was a handsome face His
eyes were biz and blue, and his hair
like raw silk surrounded by ii wreath
of fame, aud then | heard him scream:
20 mother! 0 Gud!' 1t left me tremb-
ling all over like leaf.
After it was over. my hands were
blistered and burned so | couldn't
open or shut them, but me and them
rehs tried to shake hands. Them two
fellerS weren't so bad; Que Of them
helped me down to the crossing the
next night, and got darby to set me
across the river.
What? Well, yes! That legs

crops brought high prices. When
the farmer had an abundance to sell
he could get but little for it in
proportion to the amount, When
he had but little or nothing to sell
me price was such that it would
rave made him rich if he had Sc
cured large crop. In this blessed
year Of grace it has come to the
farmer both ways. His crops are
immense, while prices are high.
Scarcity everywhere else on the
globe renders it certain that the
grain and meat produced in the
United States will find hungry
markets at prices for everything far
above the average.
