Death of General jenkins.

The following from the Greenville
Nountaineer is Of special interes: to
our readers and peculiarly SO to the
many survivors Of General jenkins
old Brigade:
General Micah jenkins was killed
by our own men at the Wilderness on
the 9Th of May, 1864, not far e-om
where Stoncwall jackson was mortallv
wounded after the battle of Chancel-
lorsville in May, 1868. General Long
street was badly wounded by the vol
ley that killed Jenkins. which was
fired through mista ke at the Twelfth
Virginia regiment by their comrades
OF Mahone's brigade. The troops
were moving down the plank road at a
critical moment of the battle, jenkins
brigade by the road and Kershaws di.
vision alongside. General Longstreet
rode at the head Of the column, ac-
companied by Jenkins and Kershaw.
and after discussing the proposed dis
position of their troops for reopeniug
the battle, Jenkins rode closer 20
Longstreet and said: 81 am happy: I
nave felt despair Of the cause for some
months, but am now relieved, and feel
assured that we will put the enemy
back acrossthe Rapidan before night"
These were the last words he ever
spoke. The Twelfth Virginia had
been in advance and was returning to
place across the plank road when the
other regiments or the brigade opened
fire. believing it was an advance of the
enemy. The Virginians threw them
selves to the ground in order to let the
fire pass over them, when the group of
officers rode into the line of fire, and
jenkins fell mortally wounded. Long
street was struck with MIME ball,
which passed through his throat
and right shoulder. Captain Alfred
Dolby, of Kershaw's staff, and an
orderly named Bowen, were killed in
stantly.
These facts are stated because 80
many errors have been published re-
Gently in regard to General jenkins,
growing out Of the prominence given
to his son in an incident due to the
unfortunate conduct Of others. Gen
eral Jenkins held the rank of brigadier
general, which he received for gallant
and meritorious conduct at Seven
Pines, Gaines Mill and Frazier
Farm in 1862. Jenkins brigade was
in the act of returning the fire from
supposed enemy, when Kershaw's
clear voice rang out, Friends their
arms were recovered without shot in
return, and the men threw themselves
down on their faces.

B!ed to Death Under Skin.

Frank P. l.. Farmer, merchant Of
Baltimore, died the other day at Johns
Hopkins Hospital by bleeding to death
under the skin. There are four
similar cases on record, but this is the
only one wherein a full grown man of
excellent physique has suffered. The
other cases were confined to two weak
women and two siokly children. The
disease is known as purpura hemor-
rhagia, but its primary cause is mys-
terry.
The attack came without warning.
First came several instances of bleed
ing at the nose, which were relieved
in the ordinary way. Two weeks ago
the blood began to pour from his
gums, ears and eyes. No further at
tacks came until last Tuesday, when
blue spots, ranging in size from pin
head to dime, appeared aud within q
few hours covered every portion of the
body.
Thursday numbness in the left arm
came and then several hemorrh ages
that greatly weakened the patient. He
died early the following morning. The
blue spots were found to be due to the
hemoTThages under the skin, causing
the bursting of tissues.
