imperial agents, who again will only sell provi
aiona. All communication with the interior is
prohibited, and, in fro‘, both nvions are precisely
where they were. It appears from the Dutch
atatemont- that all those deceptions woro suggested
by tho Hague; that u Dutch official, specially so
looted, wan sent to Japan, and that he has since
acted as a kind of foreign secretary to tho imp jr a
government. Those facts are, indeed, admitted by
the King himself, whose notes on tho treaty have
been published, and they appour to deserve, if not
chastisement, at least attention. Tie Dutch in
tho Kaat are j minus in the oxtremoof Anglo-Saxon

Matthew.-, Betsy Kte er, a Mr-. Daw, and a col
cred in* • amed J >si*b Jotonron. They met
about 2 o'clock Sunday after and cor tinned
their ire ing until aia e hour n the eight.
A out 2 o’clock M a.- morning, the Widow
Wakcman (the prophe es ) she beard & no »e
in the room below. Sie occupies a small room in
the attic of the houao. The house is a common
story and a half hou«e, wiib thin partitions, and a
1 noise in the lower kmy could be easily hoard in
the rooms above. The widow says that she told
B y Keeler, w v *.*n sbehefcrd tbe noif'e, t r at she
to ught ‘‘a 1 ! was not right below.”
Although Widow Wakeman affirms that she
tb jogh’ “all we i t rigl : below” at 2 o’clock m
the morning, no effort was ma le by her to aacer
ta n anything c .nceruing the supposed trouble.
About 2 o’tl xk ye-tcr a (M mdsy) morning, a
y, mng son oi Jon MM w- «.ega.. to -earcb for
hi t »tner, wondering why he had not made his
ap, aranco at so late no hoar in the morning He
we r tto 'ho door of one of the front rooms and
found it 1- eked, bit per.-i»ted in breaking open
the dor,r. Ho looked into the room and there
g lead upon the floor, with
pO ;*of blooo Hurrr uuding bin head.
When first discovered theb>dy lay upon tbe
floor, with the l oad towards a bed in the room,
a- • i t wa- :oui.d with the tmm turned towards the
wi idow, lying upon the loft side, and lay very
nearly in the middle of the room. Clotte 1 blood
an 1 hair lay noon the floor around him, and seve
ia; pools of blood were found near his head. It
wa truly an awfoi scene to w'tnei-H. The throat
wu- cut nearly from ear to ear, and hm head seem
e i t<> nearly severed from his body. It is evi
■ I . ■ that • >oo kid not have committed lbs deed
-<* wound. They were
dcub le-.- made by a hatchet, or some instrument
heavier and more powerful than n knife or razor.
A • 1 1 pews tom lon the floor, sod marks
of a rope wore discovered on his wrists, and it ,
wsr evident that the wrists had been bound by this
rope.
The large wound upon the neck wa- of such a
nature that it wus impossible for him to make the
wound himself. My own impress : on is that the
wuund not inflicted by himself. The wounds
wore doobtle-s made bv a largo or heavy knife.—
The maido ot the fore-flower was cut off, (from the
hand) which piece found on the floor near
him.
A post mortem examination wa-. hold at two
0’..1 ck yrsterday af.eri;oon. The body was ex
amined and the wound- probed and cleansed by
Dr.-. Knight, Jewett and Dagget.
While the peat mortem examination was being
I ed, sod also throughout the day, crowds of pao
(l > assamble lin front of the house to learn the
a »s in i particulars concerning the murder; but
• i obi, “however, were admitted into the
house.
The house was thoroughly searched and bloody
eloihen wore found, and mark-ot blood upon both
side- o‘ the door leading io the room in which the
body wa* discovered A common butcher knife
w.. found in a box or small chest, well sharped,
and having the appo. ranee of b&ing used recently,
but no hatchet was found « x'Jopt one so dull and
rusty that no use could be made of it.
Tbe following persons wore arrested during the
alter noon and lodged in jail, charged withcommit
ting or in Rome way bob g access ry to the crime :
Israel Wooding, Almeron Bunfor-l and wife, Abi
g >s, Thankful 8. H rsey, tbe widow Wake
man, (t c pr< pheless) Samuel J3l>, and a colored
m u named Josiah Jackson.
At the coroner’s inquest nearly a’l the persons
belonging to the society ol 44 Wakemanites,” wero
ex trained. Almeron 8 tnford, oi o of tbe most
prominent* in his testimony, raid :
I wo it to the houi-e of Mr. Sly with my wife
about dark, on Bun«itoy evening—got to the house
about two hours bfrer we started. Wo got there
an l found Josiah Jackson, Wooding, M ss llersey,
Mi-s Abbey and Stinnel Sly there. Justus Mat
thows is n y wile’s brother. 1 found them in the
chamber eir.ging and praying. About 11 o’clook
Mutthews Oiine to the house, ti idow Wakeman
said she wat bunte i by Matthews—the “man of
power” with an evil spirit. When Matthews carno
ic went into the front room, where there was a
i, . Bh •la : k man wanted Mu’thews to come
to the mooting, so I went to b io him, and he teem
od villirg to co ne. When hi came my wife tied
u handkerchief over his fore toad, and they tied
his I and behind him, the sumo us they would the
devil. 1 told him ho had u bud spirit, and ho
wanted to give it up. Jacks >n and Woodiug
wero with him, a id he talked with him about the
ov lspir ’. Widow Wakeman said ho was draw
ing a t rriblo power over her. Mr. Wooding told
Matthew < tha: he ought to be killed, and Matthews
sai l ho was willing to die to quench the evil »j irit.
Wooding and Jackson Bard Mathews must bo put
du .ot mu wav. Thay t »ld him he tnnst die. It.
d.oiit 1 o’ lock when I heard a i.ri-o. Wiod
ing. Sly and M s* Horsey wore up stairs praying
with us bat dodged down sUirs, a id soon 1 heard
thorn -ay, down below, “he’s killiug tho mosatn
go* ; he’s killing the messenger.”
1 heard a noise, and seve*al blows follow, and
-.timed towards the door; but they puled me
back, saying: “If he’s killing himself, he’ll be
niis-d” l hoard a girgling noiso, and cries oi
‘‘Ohlohloh !’ I tnen went up stair to sing and
pray. Whetil reached the door, I found it fatt
ened and something braced against it inside. I
could not get into tho room below. This occurred
s,l ut 12 o’clock, and 1 left tho house twenty
mi uos pa-t four. 1 waked home to Hamden,
ah ut 6 miles, last night. I have not changed my
ciothe- since the murder.
As Wooding aLd Hly dodged out in such a man
uur, 1 th-nk they might have helped to kill Mat
tbevs l think Matlhaws was willing to die.
Alt r l hoard tho no -e and crus below, Biy oame
| running up stairs and kneeled down and seemed
to bo j raying.* I thought ho oould not pray
much, for l thought he would not fool like it
then. They believed that if widow Wakeman
prophetess) should die tho world would be
destroyed. 1 should think that, from appoarance,
he did kill himself. It they (Woo ling and Sly)
killed Mutthews it was to keep hi from eucbanl
in< wide v Wake riau, who was disturbed by his
evil spirit. . ....
A colored member of tho society named Josiah
Jackson, it?'tie ito his belief that tho widow
Wakoman was a prophetess, and had risen from
U o do id for the purpose of teaohing people tho
wav to Her von.
Samuel Sly, one oi tho association, has sinee
confessed to being tho murderer of the deluded
victim ; and gives as a reason the fact tl at ho evil
sp rt of Matthews tormented hia sister, Mrs.
Wakeman, the founder of tho “Wakomani es.”
The Courier gives tho substance" of Sly’s oon
(ession:
Sly opened by admitting that he r aud he alone,
aommitted the murder, on ough be'ore he closed
his s fttement to related eircumstancea which
tended to implicate Jackson, tho negro, and Miss
Hersoy as being accessories :
He says that his sister, Mrs. Wakeman, was so
distressed with tho bad spirit or pvwer in Mat
thews, that he thought something must be dote
to remove it, and he consulted with Jackson in
regard to using a suck •; hrralwood on Muttl aws
to eea what effect it would have upon him. He
had procured a stick ol that woods few sys pre
vious, in anticipation that it might be necessary
to use it for tho purpose—as ho thought the bark
of baiol, in connection with alder, conoreted to
gether into a tea, wai powerful to rotnovo eu
(.hantmentH.
This stick, which was about an inch in diameter
and two and a half feet in length, he had placed
in a dravior in the cellar, at.d when ho s| ofce to
Jacks hi about using it, J irq irod where ho kept
it. Sly Informed him. and went and brought it
into tho lower rear room whore Jackson and the
woman Horsey wore, and they know-when he
wont iuto Matthews’ r om wi»h it.
Whin Mr. and Mrs Sand ford went upatairs,
preparatory to taking Matthews away, fc>ly went
m o the front room to atthews, and t-fter lock ng
he do; rs, struck the deceased, who waa sitting in
a chair t uded, over the righ temp c, with such t
force as t • bring him to the floor, ai d then struck (
him several limes with the e!ub. Ha then look
his pocket kniio, which is some two inches in {
leugth, and commenced cuttiug Matthews’ throat.
Matthews groaned, bu. did not user a word after
the first blow. Sly also lock a table fork, with (
which and tho kmfo ho inutila'fid th body in the (
manner it which it was discovered. }
The New Haven Journal and Courier gives the
following additional evidence taken betoro the ]
Coroner’s Jury : <
While giving the account of the whole alia r, i
Sly seemed desirous of tailing t e truth without
hesitation. He kept the Bible in his hand all the
time, and frequently said during the confession,
he narrated the facts “in the soar cf the *
L rd. Ho appears l extremely ti rvou-, and any 1
■ oil- .m ':< mt-!% disturb him very much. '
•j $ bi , uan s appeared to be a cue titutional
iffieul He said) e was b m in 13 8, and ia ]
nearly 52 yo rv cl g- He said that when four
years oi t-.go he received a cu‘ upon tho h-ad, •
which injured his tvu considerably. In ccn- '
sequence ol this iie seemed uuable to collect his
deal u-\ readiiy :s was oftentimes desire! by the
Jury.
Sly made .. cl can breast of tho whole affair to
Sheriff i’armeiee iu ti o morning, and manifested a
desire to tell the whole totne jury. This declara
tion was made to the Sheriff voluntarily, and
without being desired to do so.
Mrs. Knoda Wakeman, (the prophetess) called
and sworn.

the “Wakeman!tea,” »n*i is a wonderful spec;-

experienced religion at that time aud walked with j
Je us Christ ever since; first experienced religion '
because my husr»aud noosed me 1 expected to die,
and he finally killed me. After my husband killed £
me I was vlead sjveo hoars and then raised ; two 1
angels stood beside me when 1 went to Heaven,
and touched me with their bright swords and 1 *
rose again; saw there all that waa dead, and there >
they were under theci ndo: death; when 1 was
there this cioud parted ; and my spirit went one
way and t l e.rs the other ; they all then held up
tneir litt e right hands, and 1 rejoiced
The ‘-wo arge’s turned to me and then 1 went ,
up to Heaver.; there was a red light and many ,
white clouds there; Christ came to me when I was
in Heaven, with his nails ic his hards, and spoke
peace to my sou . Because ho spoke peace to my
soul 1 raised up, and anotherspiut came tome and
spoke, saying : “Mako your peace with God.”—
1 then kept o> praying; he soon took me to Para

the other spirits. This light then came on me so
that 1 had to look up, and the a irits said I was
numbered a.-one of them ;w&> taken np to heaven
from this place of light, and then saw Curist and
all the h y angel.-; Christ had on the thorns and
looked a- he was when crucified; thsn saw God
s iting upon his throne ic ail his glory. About the
throne were all tbe angels intl eir white rob?s,
and they were ail happy spirits there. The spirit
then came and took me back to earth, and when I
got back to earth again 1 >&w my dead body lying

to this wicked world to live again. I aoon saw
my wicked husband, who sxid, “By God, she’s

“Three long year* and more have relied by since
we parted in W ashington city, and many &oenes
have transpired of the most painful interest—in
some I hive been an actor—in some a more spec
tator.
I left Paris on the 19th of July, 1854, for Bros
sets, to consult with the Russian M nistry there.
I received my commr-siou without difficulty, and
on the Ist of August loft, m company with my
d*ep y lamented and unfortunate oomrade, Dr.
K.r g, of Charleston, 8. C., for Jassy, by the way,
Vienna. In Jassy we met with our three fri nd *
who had come on a few weeks before us. Here
wo passed our time very agreeably with the hospi
tab.e Moldavians, and, as Americans, were a ape
cie.i of animal they had read of but never seen ;
we passed, and people st Ted. We were soon or
dered to Kincliinelf, the capitoi of Bessarabia.
Here wo were only a short time, when the news
of the descent in the Crimea reached us, and we
were ordered to Odessa to take care of some of
the wounded of the battle of Aim-, Drought over
by ri»c English. Here we first taw tne “elephant,”
an 1 we have been seeing him over since.
I received orders on the 15th of November to
lOt.v-5 Odessa and go to Shimpherpol. A a ranger
in a -trange land ; 1 had to ieave my friend- and
enter alone the c'dd bare Steppe*. After six days’
journey, *hich I shall never forget, at least or a
cola rrosty morning. I reached Simphorophol,
ja-t after the battle of lnkermann. Here there
wore bnt few surgeons, and many wounded. My
chief handed me the knife and told me to go lo
w- rk, and for two weiks you would have mista
ken your home s ck nephew for a jockey butcher
in !e*d of a sympathizing M. D. I had & most
trying donut. I over worked myself and fell
h ck oi & fever ; upon my recovery I was appoint
ed chief rs a hospital. I had charge of a perfect
pest house; in f»ct, &!1 tho hospita s wore in a most
deplorable condition. Small rooms, cloaely shut
to kerp out tho intense c<»ld, containers, gangre
nous and suppurating wounds, diarrhoeas and fever
soon produced a new enemy, and for a while
bomb", balls and rockets were play things in com
parison with tbe terrible Typhus, which so mer
cilo:-sly decimated my comrades and col eagues.
My dear friends Drs. King, ot Charleston, and
Draper, ol New York, 1 ai fell martyrs to it, and
up to the time I was attacked twenty-fi r ‘e surgeons
had died Os it, in the Crimea. 1 will not attempt
t give yo • a history of my illness—too painful to
be remembered. 1 owe my life to kind friends
who nursed me. My health not being good, I was
advanced, by lavoi, acd attached as operator to
tho head quarters of the army b fore Eupatoria,
under Gen. Schabo’ski. The old g moral received
me very kindiy. I dined with him evory day at
his tar le, and with his good fare and the fresh aja
brerz), 1 improved rapidly.
Alter a stay of two months before Eupatoria, the
cholera made it* appears ice, and having suffered
from an attack of it, l was obliged to quit service
and trout myself seriously. I found an asylum in
tho house of our kind uod exce lout Mother,
Grootleu, a German lady living in the Mountains,
flitoen mi.es from Simpberopol; with her mater
nal cure, I rapidly improvod in health, and enjoyed
myself vory much with the h ispiv&bie inhabitants
of the Southern eoas of the Crimea. I was on a
vibit to the seashore when the roar of the cannon
on tho Tchercaya came booming over the Moun
tains, and told me that 1 should be there. 1 tore
m } self from my pleasant companions, aud imme
diatoly set out tor Sebastopol. I offered my servi
eo. j , and was accepted and appointed as operator
to a hospital called the Barracks, situated on the
North side of the bay. Then I had my hands fu’l,
and in two weeks performed a great many capital
operations.
On th sth September, I was aroused very early
in the morning by a very heavy cannonading,
wli.ch continued, with Bonn intermission, till the
rnori ingot the Bth, when 1 was again aroused by
one of the heaviest Hflres I ever heard. My house
shook to its foundation, as if by a terrible earth
quale. 1 had a most commandirg view cf the
wi ole affair. I stood upon a bttt* n- near my bes
pilul, and one of the meat awl* V*sublime scene*
wus presented to my view, thaw everthe
eye of man boho d. 8M astopmwfrks iu flames—
along the whole line of fortifications, tho cannon
and small arms poured forth a solid mass of fire,
ot bomb and balls. At tea o’clock, the firing re
h»y jd, and uev s readied us that the French naa
n urod tho Malakofl. boon after, however, tl e
fir ng commenced with renewed vigor, and was
mi Mined for aome time, but gradually died away
tov?a*ds evenirg. At night the calm was now and
tboa broken by an occasional shot, or (*me tre
inendous explosion. 1 awoke the next morning to
ait ness a most melancholly spectacle. A deadly
ailonce reigned—the noblo men of war vessels that
1 a floated in majestic defiance ths day before,
ni>tv lay hiding their hal'a in shame beneath the
waves, and str. tolling their bare arm-* as if in sap
pl cation to an avenging God.
Ihe beautiful Fort Paul lay scattered in a mil
lim of atoms, while tbe m.gnty Nicholas stood
like a Launtod Lion, grimly contemning his foes.
An impenetrable smoke hung ever the once beau

wuro covered with tho flying and distracted iuhab
if:u s. ihe wounded soldieis dragging their gory

1 hope soon to quit tne scenes of this accursed war
—1 have been more than a year in service. Os

Tha following “official information,” was receiv

snfT 2d Artillery, consisting of one Sergeant, one
Corporal and seven privates, were suddenly at
tacked by a party of Seminole Indians, at day
light on the 20th test., about 16 mile* S. E. from
Fort Simon Dram—tha’ party being about 40 miles
S. E. from Fort Myers.
The party left Fort Myeia on morning ot the
7ih instant, and np to the time of attack wore en
gaged in making a re exam uation Os that portion
of tho Big Cypress Swamp examined by the troops
last winter. Three men of the command arrived
at Fort Myers on'the night of the 21st; it is snp
poaed that Lieut. Hartsutl and the remainder ot
hia party have been killed.
Most of the public animals with tne expedition,
some eighteen in number, were aso shot down.
Lieut, liartsuff, when last seen had one arm bro
kon, and is supposed to have been wounded ia
his side. Private Hanna, of Company G., 2d Ar
tillery, one of the party, who escaped, brought the
above information to Fort Myers. Hanna w»s
wounded in the abdomen, not seriously it is
thought; be left anothor of the party, private
Biker, also wounded, about 18 miles from Fort
Myers.
Baker gave out at that point aud could come no
farther. The Indians making the attack wore
some twenty five or thirty in numbers. Two
companies of the 2d Artillery, were to ’oavo
Fort My«rs on tha morning of the 2d inat., in

Okioin ox tux Aldkn Family. —Mrs. Rose
Stxnuish, consort of Captain Stendish, departed
this life on the 29th of January, 1621. This cir
cumstance is mentioned as an intioduction to tho
to wi:-g anecdote, which has baeu carefully
hand d down lo as by tradition :
I n viry .-lion time after the
Stan :sh, ti e captain ww led to think that, if he
coal tain Miss Priscilla Mullins, a daaghter of
Mr. Wm. M .llins, thofcbreach in his family would
ba happily repaired. He therefore, according to
the custom of those times, sent to ask Mr. Mullins’
pe.mission to visit his daughter. John Alden.
the messenger, went and faithfully communicated
the wishes ot the captain. The old gentleman did
not object, as he might have done, on aoconnt of
the recency of Captain Standish’s berea' ement.
He said it was perfectly agreeable to him, bat the
young lady must also be consulted. The damsel
was accor iingly called into the room, and John
Ald6n, who ia said to have been a young man of
most excellent form, with a fair and ruddy oom
. plexioo, arose, and in a very courteous and pre
possessing "manner, delivered his errand.
M:?s Mul in.- i&tened with respectful attention,
and at last, after a conai terable pause, fixing her
eyes upon him, with an open countenance, said.
■'PrUAse, jok *, *ohy do you not epeak for yovreeiff'-
The young man clashed, bowed, and took his.
leave, but wiih a look which indicated more than
hi< diffidence would permit him otherwise to ex
pre s. However, he soon renewed his visit, and
it wa not lorg before their nuptials were cele
brates! in ams le form.
From this couple were descended all of the name
cf Alden iu the Unite! Sta es. What report he
made to hia constituent a ter the first interview,
tradition does not unfold; bat, it is said, how
true the writer knows not, that the captain never,
to the day ot hia death, forgave him.
Tmx Miato.t or CoNaxBVATLeM.—The Alexandria
Gazette justly remarks that for “a long lime the
Democratic presses, for the most part, were in the
habit of denouncing and ridiculing Conservatism ;
affirming that it was the very antipodes of Demo
cracy, and, therefore, to be especially placed un
der the party ban. This feeling was never so
prevalent at the JSouth, as it was at the North; but
still to a greater or less degree it pervaded the
while Democratic party. The events of the last
tew years have shown how erroneous have been
the teachings cf the leaders on this subject. It is
now aumitted tha Conservatism is a very good
thing—indeed, quite a necessary thing, in the
working of oar political machine. If it were not
for the course of the conservative men, and the
inculcation ol conservative doctrines, we hardly
know where we should have been harried in this
year of grace. In truth,
will be, a conservative party in this country op
posed to the plans and designs of ultra Democra
cy—and men must make their choice. Conserva
tism is no more opposed to the progress of the
oountry, than the crossties ol a railroad are to the
running of a locomotive. It just kee; s the politi
cal rails in the right place, and prevents mischief.
It opposes unw.se and undae “expansion”—it
sets itaeii up against flnbasterism and forays—it
holds on to the good we have, ratner than, by
doubtlul experiment, to catch something sappos
ed to be better—it loves to walk in the oid ways,
because it has not seen no clearer or ameother
read than that marked oat by oar lathers—and it
cordially con lessee that i; does not think the Con

by construction or olh rr*e, to any advantage.—

Sir John FitaUff
, About thiee m ie« north of Yarmouth, Extend,
id a small village named Caistor. It ia h.tuated
I near the t*ea, end coatair a a few hon-ea and a great
i deal of sand. Thera are f» w tree* n<ar i , and
those few t>eeoi sickly, as :r their growth were
stunted by the keen winds which swept along the
co-fit. Tlc only object which attracts attention is
a lofty lower, surmounte i b> a slender flag pole,
which p' n s towards the bk . On nearer :usi ec
tiou,it ia found to >c only a ruin. Ti e wndiug s ai’b
wnicn once ledfto the summit of the tow r l »7<-

awsy, leav-ng apertures w ich the wind
iGOhiuH mournfully. Four wls e-c oye a Ix'g 3
space of ground, bat everything is decayed aid in
ruins, tbougn e jough is left to give the spectator
an idea of its former grandeur. Here is what was
a moat, but cow a dry ditch, choked up with mud
tnd weeds ; and there is a massive gate acd the
remains of a drawbridge. Part of a chapel is
visible, where, in times past, priests with rich
ve»tments sung the solemn mass, and instructed
the devout Christians wbo were assembled, in the
way to everlasting life. But priests and auditors,
nay, the chapel itself are gene, and nought re
mains but the crumbling atones, which mutely tell
their tale.
The cast’e was built by no lass a personage than
Sir John Falateff— honest Jack FalsUff ! Yet the
bravo knight bore a character far different from
that portrayed by the immortal dramatist. Sir
John was no bully, no boister, no ignorant boor.
England ia indeoied to him for counsel and assis
tance in times of danger, and ought not entirely
to terget the exploits of so brave and loyal a sub
ject.
Old Fuller tells us that bbakespeare at first in
troduced Bir John Oldcast'e upon the stage; but
that being resented oa account of the high religi
ons charade' of the knight, he gave his idea' crea
tion a new name, being that of another personage
of the period, whose real character was scarcely
lets different.
Sir John Falstaff, or, more correctly, Fastolfe,
wt s the se n of John Fastolfe, a mariner, and came
into the world about 1879. He was soon left
father ess, and according to the custom of the feu
dal times, was placed under the guardianship of
Jonn Duke of Bedford, the regent of France. He
afterw rds accompanied to Ireland Thomas Duke
of Clarence, on his appointment to the Governor
ship of that country. Wh Ist there, we presume,
he fell in love ; for on Bt. Hilary’s day, 1409, he
married Mill ice nt, daughter of Sir Robert Tiptoft,
the wi low of Sir Stephen Scroope, whom, on his
wedding dav, he contracted to give £IOO per au
nnm lor pin money. This sum wus regularly paid
until her death, which took place during her bus
bar d’s lifetime.
The vice regent’s court appears not to have
suited the tastes of Falstaff, who was more addic
t°.d to fighting than lounging about in idleness. He
soon, therefore, assumed another character, and
having buckled on his armor proceeded to France
where abundance of ’glory was to be obtained.
There his bravery soon made him known. In the
accounts of most of the engagements of t iat period
Falstaff’s name occurs in the list of combatants.
In Normandy, Gascony, Guienne, Anjou and
Maine, hi arm helped to sustain the British
power. When Harfleur was taken in 1414, ho was
made lieutenant of the place, and shortly after
received the homor of nighthood. At Agincourt
he took a noble prisoner—no less a personage
the Duke of Alencoo. He was in the midst of
the strife at the taking of Rouen, Caen, Falaise,
and Suez, and stormed fortresses and castles—
amongst others, the castle of Sille le Guillaume,
for the capture of which he was rewarded by the
title of Baron in France.
Among other honors poured upon him, he wa
elected a Knig it of the Garter. At his election
there were an equal number of votes for our knight
and Sir John Radcl ffe, wheieupon the Duke of
Bedford gave the casting vote in favor of Falstaff,
and sent him a letter abounding with expressions
of praise. Now, Monslrelet, in his Chronicle states
that Falstaff was degraded, from the order on ac
count of his dastardly conduct at the battle of
Patay, where he and his followers, being struck
with terror at the appearance of tin mysterious
Joan of Arc, tcok to their heels and leftthe French
army in possession of the field. This tale, unsup
ported by other testimony, is utterly false ; for
although it is a fact that Sir John was put to flight
at Patay, the tale of his being degraded from the
Order of the Garter is proved untrue by the cir
cumstanca of hi * regular attendance at the chapters
of the Order long alter the period at which his
degradation is stated to have taken place. Shak
speare, however, did not fo*get this story; witness
the first part es “Henry VI,” where Lord Talbot
says:
“Shame on the Duke of Burgundy and thee !
I vowed, base kc ight, wren I did meet thee next,
To tear the g%rter from thy craven leg, {pluoking it off,)
Whioh I have dene, because unworthily
Thou waat installed in that high degree.”
The crowing exploit of Sir John was his brave
conduct at the bailie of the Herrings; and how
could a Yarmouth man fail to conquer in such a
battle? With a small band of Englishmen, be
routed a numerous French army, commanded by
“ie jeune et beau Dunois” himself. The battle
got its name from the circumst» nco of our knight
muking a kind of fortification with his wagons,
which were for the most part full of herrings ; for,
besides the army ceing led by a Yarmouth man,
the season was Lent, audthe?c two circumstances
c >mbined show the reason of his carrying so large
a quantity of that unall but excellent fish.
The year following the affair at Patay found Sir
John lieutenant of Caen ; and he was sent in 1482
as # an ambassndoi to the Council of Basel, where
he seems to have fulti.led his duty satisfactorily,
for he was afterwards sent to conclude a peace
with France. A few years after this event, the
good old knight retired from ee vice, with glory
and renown ; he turned his steps towards his
native place, and building a castle at Caistor,
there spent the remainder of his life. He died in
1469, and was buried at tie priory of Broomholm.
His resting place while dead, and his habitation
while living, have bowed .bafora the stroke of
time, and nothing now remains but u few mould
eriug, ciumbling walls. A few jears more and
all will be gone.
In his retirement, Sir John was not oblivious
or the advAUlnfCCB ol learning. lu that uga, little
encouragement was given to literature ; but to that
lit le he contributed a par.. The translation of
Tully do Sjnectute was mad: by his order, and
printed in 1481, by the father of English priming.
To Oxford he was a bountiful benefactor, nor
was he forgetful of the sister university of Cam
bridge.
He was intent in his old age upon founding a
college for seven priests and the same number of
pior men ; but unexpected diflicu ties arrested its
progress, and death proved an irresistible obstacle
to its completion.
Such wzb the Falstaff' of fait, a soldier of cour
age and conduct, and altogether, for his age, a
worthy and respectable'character. It will always
probably remain a mys’ery how Shakespeare should
have thought of adopting tor his extraordinary
personation and sensuality, cowardice and drollery,
the name, first, of a virtuous martyr, and second
ly, of a thoroughly.noble soldier. So it was, how
ever ; and never, while the English lauguage
endures, shall we cease to recoguile in the word
Falstaff, instead of a name of honor and dignity, a
signal for raising mirth.
Hxumb, Albuy and UuM Railroad—More Iron.
Progress or tbe Work.
The bark J. Bryant, from Cardiff, Wales, brings
691 tons of iron for the Savannah, Albany and
Gulf Railroad. This is the seoond cargo which
has arrived for this Road, and makes, with that
already reoeived, about thirteen hundred tons.
Arrangements are making by Messrs. Van Hern
<fc Co., the cojtrac’ors, to commence the work of
track laying from the depot in this city on the 7th
ol next month. Their contract is for sixteen miles,
(across the G eat Ogeochee) which they expect to
have completed by the Ist of next June.
As regards thd work of grading and bridging on
the whole route from Savannah to the West bank
of the Altamaha, the public will be glad to learn
that it is in a Slate of gratifying forwardness.—
As is known to those familiar with th ■ country
traversed, a oonsidorabio portion of it is of a low,
swampy character, to say nothing of the three
rivers to be bridged. The dry weather and low
water sf the year now closing, have greatly facili
tated the operations of the contractors. The
bridges across both tho Ogoochees, (that across
the Groat Ogeecbee a work of much magnitude,)
are completed, with the exception of the drawers.
That across the Altamaha, in the hands of Messrs.
Holcombe and Mill* n, is so tar advanced that tho
regular work of its constructiou is beyond the
contingency of high water. The aame is true of
all the operations of grading and tressoling be
tween Savannah and that river.
It is manifest then that this great enterprise,
moving quietly onward, has reached a point in its
progress where it may be safely said that much has
been achieved. Bor there iB now no reason to
doubt but that all the contracts which have been
lot, may be performed as specified—and the cars
be runningto the western latamaha,
early in tho year 1867. That point gained, 'he most
difficult poition of the work will have been ac
complished. From the Alatamaha down to the
Florida lino, to the proposed point of junc ion
with the Pensacola and Georgia Railroad, the way
is easy.
For their p irt, our Florida friends are going to
work under the most encouraging auspices. From
Tallahassee, (already connected by Railroad with
the Gulf,) they commence soon to operate east
ward. They expect to be able (according to the
intelligence which wo have already published) to
offer us a connection not only with Middle, but
East and South Florida, (to Cedar Keys,) in a little
more than two years from this date.
Such being tho posture of affairs at both ends of
the route frem this to the Gulf of Mexico, we hope
very soon to hear that some contracts have bfcm
lot by the Savannah Com| auy beyond, the Atama
ha River. The fact that the read is likely to pay
very small dividends until the connection is made
with the Gulf, and, as we believe, very large ones
so soon os that connection is accomplished, should
determine the directory to press forward to that
grand consummation with all feasible dispa'cfc.
[Savantiah Courier.
He says he did not des'gu to use any other wea
pon than the bludgeon, but after he had given the
blows was urged on by some influence to nee the
knife and fork. After the murder, he remained
locked in the room a half hour, when he came out
into Miss Hersey’s room, where she was, with a
bloody stick and a light in his hand. His hands
and shirt sleeves were bloody and she procured a
basin of water to wash himself, and they convers
ed about secreting the stick, and he then placed it
down in the cellar. His shirt sleeves were then
torn off, and the bloody pieces burned in Miss
Heresy's stove —she being present. He afterwards
took the club used and cut it into pieces and threw
them into the privy vault, where he aleo put the
knife. He took up some blood from the floor, and
carried it away. He then went up stairs, where
the gathering was, and engaged in prayer. This
is the substance of his statement.
After Sly’s confession he was remanded to pri
son, and Mrs. Wakeman was taken to the jury
room, and gave a description of her visit to the"
spirit world, eome thirty years sinoe, at which
time, she says, she was murdered by her husband,
and remained dead seven hours, during which
time she made the heavenly journey, seeing the
Saviour, all the prophets, apostles, martyrs and
saints, and having a realizing view of the home of
the blessed, after - hich she was sent back to
earth on her mission. She states that she is 70
years of age, tod ha- been the mother of fifteen
children, nine of whom are still living. Her
brother, Sly, is 50 years of age.
Pabxeu H. Fbxhcb.- -Since the arrival of this
individual in this country as Minister for Nicara
gua, reference has been made to charges of former
misconduct, wlich would or might subject him o
prosecution. What these charges are, is explain
ed by the fret that on the 80th January last, Gen.
Shields, from the Committee on Military Affairs,
reported to the Senate a bill for the relief of Lieut.
Benton, and Majors Babbitt and The
officers were stationed at San Antonio, Texas, in
1860, and to them Parker H. French, then chief
ol an emigrant party, presented a letter of credit
from Howland and Aspinwali, of New Tork. In
accordance with regulations oftne War Department
permitting supplies to be sold tojemigranis, the offi
cers furnished French with stores of different
kinds, amounting to nearly $2,000, receiving in
pay several drafts on How and and Aspinwali,
These drafts, on presentation, were protested,
and it was then found that the letter of credit,
above mentioned, was a forgery. Several mer
chants in Ban Antonio were (says Gen. Shields) st
the same time imposed upon by the same Mr.
French. What bearing this faux pat of the
Colonel will have upon his relations in this
country, it is impossible to say.— Bali. Artur.
