JACKSON TALKING.

TEa Coiored Pugiiist Doesn't Take Kindly
to Corbett's Remarks.
PITTsBURG, Jan. 17.-Peter Jackson,
the colored pugilist, was in Pittsburg,
en- route to Baltimore, and was very
angry at Corbett's letter, in which it was
stated that in the fight with Jackson in
California, the club officials and
the referee were against him,
(Corbett) and saying that he was
defrauded out of the fight. Jack
son said that this was a falsehood,
pure and simple, and that later Corbett
refused to accept $1,000 added to the
stakes offered by the California club to
fight the battle out later, but instead
pulled down his $2.6 800 coming from the
drawn contest and slipped out Of town.

He Was a Hero.

There are many motives that impcl
men to acts of heroism. Sometimes it
is love of country, sometimes love Of
fame, sometimes love of humanity, that
leads men to brave danger and death.
High as Is the place accorded to the
noble patriot heroes, we place above
them the heroes of humanity. Here is
the story of one of these latter, as told
by the San Francisco Argonaut.
On the day after the battle of Fret'er-
icksburg, Kershaw's brigade occupied
Mary's Hill, md Sykes division lay I5O
yards ahead, with Il stone wall sepalat-
ing the two forces. The intervening
space between Sykes men and the
stone wall was strewn with dead, dying
and wounded soldiers, victims of the
day before. The air was rent with
their groans and agonizing cries OF
water! water"

gray, can't stand this

wounded Yankees crying for water.

wall, you'll get bullet IN your head.
The skirmishing has been murtlerous
all day"
IF you give me permission, Ill try
it, said the young man.
MY boy, ought not to let you run
such a risk, but how can I refuse? You
may go, and may God protect you"
"Thank yor, sir" And with Il smile
on his bright, handsome face. the boy
sergeant sprang away over the wall,
down among the sufferers, pouring the
blessed water down their parchetl
throats.
After the first two shots, his noble
errand became understood, and instead
Of bullets, shouts of admiration follow
cd him. He returned to his post in
safety.
Surely. high upon the roll of worlds s
heroes should be inscribed the name of
this young soldier, who risked death
that he might give to his enemies the
"cup of cold water" so blessed in the
sight of the Savior.

The late Gen, d. II. Hill, Jackson's
brother-in-law. gives In the Century an
Illustration OF this self-conquest. Once,
while he was q small boy, a mustard

his mind might be diverted and the
plaster kept on, his guardian mounted
him on a horse and sent him on an er'

peculiarities which caused him TO- be
regarded as eccentric.

jackson was a dyspeptic, and had
been at water cure establishment, and
on leaving 1t was prescribed diet OF
stale bread and buttermilk. A wet
shirt was to be worn next to his body.
He followed these directions for a
year after entering upon his professor
ship at the Virginia Military institute,
though he boarded at a hotel, and these
peculiurities caused him to be laughed
at.
The water cure doctor had directed
him to go to bed at 0 O'Clock. Jack
son obeyed strictly. If that hour caught
him at u party, lecture or religious
meeting, he Invariably started home

His pastor once called upon Jackson
to pray in public. He did so, but with
such confusion of utterance that the
pastor told him that he would never re-
quire it of him again.
Jackson replied that he did not wish
to be excused from the duty. 1t was a
cross to him to pray in public, but he
had made up his mind to bear it. He
persevered and became fluent in public
prayer.
His pastor once remarked that "in
our country, the man who can speak
multiplies himself by five" The remark
so impressed Jackson that he resolved
to become speaker, though lie was
nervous and diffident. He formed de-
batting society. and after many efforts
became an impressive, though never an
eloquent speaker.

self, begun in childhood and never Civ

'"This self-denial and self-control eX-
planned his wonderful success. He had
conquered himself. and was thus made
fit to be conquerer. No self-indulgent
man was ever truly great, however
lavishly nature may have showered
upon him her bounties. How many
splendid opportunities have been lost
through the wine-bibbing or pleasure
