Parent and Child.

Nothing is sweeter than sometimes
finding a father who confesses himself
a child with his children, a mother
who is a young girl with her daugh-
tiers. There is no question of author
ity or infallibility with these, yet
somehow there is always obedience,
always harmony dignities are not sac
ri6ced, while something better than
blind homage is rendered. There are
no harsh judgments. no moral reac-
tions. Each recognizes that the thing
to be attained, the quality to be ex-
pressed-as, for example, bene6cence,
love, courtesy, c%harity-is forever
greater than possible human attain
mert, yet that each individual grows
in knowledge, perfection and under
standing while he strives; grows with
out pain, development being normal,
and grows without effort, the impetus
being from within and reactive, not
from without, coercive and destruc-
tive. True respect each for the other
and this is the vital point-true re-
spect each for the other, for even the
opinions and the standards of the 9TH
er is at last attained. Certainly this
is something better than any obedi-
ence born of the exercise Of blind au-
thority, or cultivated by a parent per-
sonal pride in his position.-Harper's
Bazaar.

What Wrecks the Home.

The two twin evils which wreck our
home are drink and scolding. 1t is
true that many men of middle life
have practically given up their homes,
taking some of their meals there and
usually their sleep too; but it is equal
ly true that there they have a refuge
from that tongue which no man "a
tame, not even an apostle. Our faith
ers tried to duck a common scold, un-
der the mistaken belief that heat Of
the spirit could be cured by lowering
the temperature Of the body but ex-
p%erience only proved that a fiery tenn
per is fed by water as if it were oil.
Andrew Lang, in his late comments
upon Shakespeare's Claiming of a
Shrew," says that it makes an anus
ing comedy, but that "no shrew ever
was tanned by Shakespeare process
or any other. We are very much
afraid that woman's temper has driv-
en- more men to drink than woman's
tears have redeemed; and that many
a Xantippe is married to many a So.
crates who car seek solace for loss of
home comfort in the consultations of
philosophy More will follow Rip
Van Wrinkle to the woods with his
pint bottle in his pocket. English
literature is a literature of chivalry,
and is apt to condone every failing a
woman but one. But is doubtful
whether the immunity thus given to
woman to 'sdo her worst has been a
benefit to her. Everybody knows what
few care to say that the wife's temper
is responsible for as many wrecked
households as the husband vices

Gen. j. E. Johnston.
General Your letter has justreach-
ed me. \ Iwish solely to have
my own record right, and if you will
consider the position in which I find
myself placed you will see now great
is my embarrassment. By your ad-
vice I went to consult with the Presi-
dent, the armistice having been an
nulled. After full conference with
him a plan vas agreed upon to enable
him to leave the country. He char
ged me with the execution of this plan
and he is now moving in accordance
with it. On my return here I find
myself not only powerless to assist
him, but placed myself in a position
of great ~delicacy. Unjust either leave
him to his fate, without an effort to
avert it, or subject myself to possible
censure by not accepting the terms OF
the convention you have made. If |
do not accompany him [ shall never
cease to reproach myself, and if I 60
with him I may go under the ban of
outlawry. I choose the latter, because
I believe it my duty to do so. But !
leave my command to abide the terms,
as I shall not ask a man to 60 with
me. Should any join me, they will
be stragglers like myself, willing to
sacrifice everything for the cause and
for u government.
Very respectfully yours,

The fight for the Southern Battle
Abbey will be one of the most inter-
esting which will be made at this
reunion. The chief competing cities
are Richmond, Washington, New
Orleans and Nashville. The latter
offers a site for the building, and, it
is claimed, has already collected $685.
900 of the 500, 900 which it is neces-
sary to contribute to secure the prize.
Richmond believes that the Jefferson
Davis mansion, which is nov used as
a museum, will offer the most accep-
table site for the proposed Battle
Abbey. Improvements have been
made to the building which cost $780,
900, and relics have been placed in it
at a cost of many thousands. It is
believed that the majority Of the old
soldiers will prefer that the abbey
shall be located here.
It is pretty we'll decided that the
Virginia Military Cadets will attend
the reunion in a body. Gen. Scott
Ship, the superintendent of the in
stitution, to-day sent this telegram
here: "Caunot positively answer.

a letter Of inquiry regarding the

apply for a charter in a few days.
The question of Mr.. William l..
Royal delivering his lecture here on
Gettysburg during the Confederate
reunion was the subject Of discussion
tonight at a largely attended meeting
of Lee Camp. In this lecture, as de-
livered here by Mr.. Royal, some
months ago, President Jefferson Davis
and Gen. James Longstreet were
somewhat severely criticised. Com
mander Kirk Otey, Of Garland Camp,
of I,ynchburg, who was a member of
Gen. Longstreet's staff during the
war, wrote here to Lee Camp, protest.
ing that this lecture should not be
delivered during this great gathering
Of old Confederates. At the meeting
of Lee Camp friends of Mr.. Royal
gave assurance that if his lecture is
repeated, he will omit the criticisms
of Mr. Davis and modify those of
Longstreet so as to embrace only mat
tiers Of record as to his responsibility
for the result at Gettysburg. The
camp adopted a resolution declaring
that it was inexpedient for that body
to take any action in this matter.

The color guard, which plays the
chief part in the manipulation and de-
ferse Of a battle flag, numbered in the
Union infantry regiments eight men
and in the Confederate IL. The color
bearers were %sergeants, chosen for
their fine soldierly appearance and
records for bravery.
AS a rule the volunteers were not
given to brilliant deeds individually.
Modern methods of fighting not only
do not invite them, they scarcely fur
nish opportunities for them. But a
chance to seize an enemy's flag, sim
gle-handed, ofttimes lurei men to a
heroic death and Col. Ellsworth, the
first flag martyr, had many imitators.
in the charge on the stone wall at
fredericksburg, a charge equal in
every respect to that of Pickett at
Gettysburg, the Sixty-ninth New
York, in common with the rest Of the
Irish brigade, left its green.tufted he
roes in rows along the fatal barricade.
The color-bearer fell mortally wound
ed, but he had strength left to detach
the banner-the ''Stars and Stripes
from the staff and wind it round
him underneath his jacket. He then
propped himself up against a boulder
der to await death, and was found
there with a bullet hole through his
heart and through the flag that cover
ed it.
The flag of the Sixty-third New
York of the same brigade, met a SINH
lar fate at Charlottesville. Its bear
er, Lloyd, was shot down alone and
unseen in The hazel thicket, and to
save the banner from capture, he dis.
posed of it in the same way. The
State banner of the Forty-third New
York was in a like manner preserved
in The Wilderness, when the bearer,
Sergeant Hackett, knew that he and
his charge were about to fall into the
hands of the edemy. 1t remained I'M
der his uniform during a long impris-
onment at Andersonville, and at his
death was buried with him. More
fortunate, though not more worthy Of
praise, was the valor of Color Ser
geant W. Fl. Greene, of the Thirty
seventh Wisconsin, in the assault at
Petersburg, June II. Mortally
wounded, and separated from his com
rades, far out between the lines, with
both legs disabled, he worked his way
slowly back to the Union parapet by

a young lady in San Jose were for a
time very much in love with each 9th
er, and during that period each wrote
the other a two pound letter every day
weighted down to the limi with kisses
and expressions of love. But they
quarrelled afew weeks ago.
'Send back my letters" she wrote.
"Return mine frst," he replied.

"Ethics, for the use of women only,

Each waited to see if the other would

letters, so neither received them.
"a man who has so little regard for
his word" etc., wrote she.
"a woman who would deliberately
attempt such a%confdence game" etc.,
responded he.
There was another pause in the cor
respondence, during which both tried
to devise some way Of effecting an ex-
change. The idea of third party oc-
CURED to both, but was abandoned.
The intermediary might read the let
ters. Finally the young mai decided
to go after them. He effected the ex-
change, and now the correspondence
has been resumed.
"You know, dear little sweetheart,
hat I was just teasing you," wrote
he.
"You horrid boy, to treat me so. !
have a notion never to love you again."
answered she, and there will soon be
another stack of two pound letters to
exchange.
