Tie Needle Woman OF Old.

Flow much gayer the world would
be II women of leisure still dressed
their husbands as they used to do in
the early days of more than a thoT-
sand years ago. when they wrought
their surcoats with their arms, or with
terrifying designs. in gold and scarlet
and finely stained linen thread, with
curious lions and birds and fabulous
beasts, with stars and crescents and
chains and wreaths, SO that the
knights went out the envy OF their
enemies. Their capture was the cap
ture of fine treasure Of scarlet, and
the daughters of other knights from
far and near were sent to be taught
the arts of the needle by those ladies'
whose achievement was most in EVIL
cence and most admired.

lately United States senator from
Texas, who said to me: We'll, you
have taken the old gentleman at
last!"
Who do you mean?"

There he stands" said Reagan,
pointing to tall. elderly, and rather
dignitied looking gentleman. standing
a short distance away.
We rode up, dismounted, saluted and
1 asked if this was Mr.. Davis. Yes"
he replied, 81 am President Davis" At
this the soldiers set up shout that
Jeff Davis was captured and started
the familiar army song, We'll hang
JEFF Davis on sour apple tree" to the
tune of John Browns body. This made
Davis exceedingly uneasy, and it was
consequently promptly suppressed by
Col. Pritchard.
Davis remained in the custody of
these men until taken to Fortress
Monroe. Gen. Harnden received $4,000
as his share Of the reward offered
by the government for Davis capture.
