The Annual Reunion Until In 'talbotton—The VeternnK Hue * Hood Time of It—I'rom'illm,* of the Newton. Correspondence Enquirer-Sun. Talbotton, August 26.—The second annual reunion of the Veteran Association of the Fourth Georgia Confederate Volun teers assembled here yesterday, and was met at the depot by the new Southern Rifles, and the survivors of the old South ern Rifles, and escorted to the armory of the former. After resting a short while the proces sion was formed and marches to the opera house, where refreshments were served. At 4 o’clock the association was called to order by Captain Jacob Carriker, of the Baldwin Blues, the third vice president of the association, in a few well chosen words. On motion of Captain Carriker, iu the ab sence of the permanent president, General Phil Cook was made permanent chairman of the association, and C. T. Farlow, of the Sumter Light Guards, being permanent secretary. The first order of business was an address of welcome on the part of the Southern Rifles by Mr. O. D. Gorman, and respond ed to by Mr. Roland B. Hall, of the Bald win Blues, after which an address of wel come on the part of the citizens by Mr. A. P. Persons, and responded to by'Captain Hester, of the Albany Guards. Dr. W. H. Philpot being loudly called for, arose and In language chaste and sentiments patri- lotic, recalled the many deeds of valor upon the tented field by the veterans of the Fourth Georgia Volunteers, and after ten dering his home and heart to the veterans, he would give such as he had to them and requested that not to ask for only what they saw. as Talbotton was the dryest town in Georgia, and no medical purveyor to make requisition to get medical supplies from. On motion, the association adjourned to meet again in the opera house at 8 o’clock, p. m., to attend a banquet, and then to ad journ to 8 o’clock to-morrow morning. SECOND DAY.

Hall, W. H. Gilbert and G. W. Carriker. The caramittee on hospitality made their report, which, after being read, was unani- inonslyadopted. Mr. Roland B. Hall presented to the as sociation, in behalf of Mrs. Doles, the wife of the old and deceased commander, the sword that was worn on the many battle fields. The association by a rising vote ac cepted the gift. Dr. W. H. Philpotpresented the associa tion the flag of the Fourth Georgia Volun teers, a banner that was carried on many fields of battle, and that never, no, never, trailed in the dust. Corporal A. W. Crosby, of the Albany Guards, was re-elected treasurer of the as sociation. The order of business was the time and place of the next meeting. Albany, Ga., as the place and the first Wednesday in September, 1SS7, the time, was placet! in nomination. After a ring ing address by Capt. Gilbert, of Albany, inviting the association to that place, the motion was carried. The association proceeded to the elec tion of officers for the ensuing year, with the following result: President—Captain Jacob Carriker, of Milledgeville. First Vice-President—Captain B. C’uriey, of Talbotton. Recording Secretaries—C. T. Furlowand E. B. Hall. Orator—Captain Heater, of Albany. Historian—Captain J. P.

The invitation was accepted in a few words by Captain J. J. Bull in behalf of the company. On motion of Nathan Moody, of the LaGrange Light Guards, three cheers were given for the old flag. Each member was directed to pay over to the treasurer the sum of twenty-five cents to defray the expenses for stationery. The amount was readily contributed. A motion was made and seconded that the amount that had been contributed pre viously by members of the association to wards the erection of a monument to the memory of Colonel Doles, be paid by the treasurer over to Mrs. Doles, to be us d as she may wish. • Mr. W. E. Mumford was also invited to meet with the regiment at Albany. Mr. Mumford gracefully accepted the mvita- tiou in a, few well chosen words. A letter was read from Gen. Phil Cook, regretting his inability to meet with the veterans on the occasion of their reunion. A letter from Dr. W. H. Philpot was read, making a requisition upon Capt. Hulbert, of the West Point Guards for medical supplies in the hospital department. Dr. Philpot arose and stated his orders had been obeyed, and that while his to\\ n was dryi he would endeavor to keep the “spirits” of the vets, all O.

A MISERABLE MISER. .lolm Van Hrhanrk. at Heath's Diinr, Makes a Startling llevelallon-Hls Mltli, Castle Kilieil I ; With Wealth. | Matawan, N. J., August 24.—John Van Senanck, a miser, who lives at his old | homestead at Bradwell, near here, having ' had two paralytic strokes and believing lie was dying, sent for Judge Spader, Lafay ette Conover and Charles E. Conover. Hu was found laying on a half-broken bed. [ The house is 85 years old. Van Schanck is ! i seventy-two years old and has S t always lived in this same house. ' It is made of old-fashioned shiugles, I every hole in the shingles was made with a gimlet and the nails are clinched on the i other side. The shingles are all lined with j three-inch plank. The windows are one I foot wide and three feet high. The stairs I i leading from the first to the second floor i are cut out of a solid tree. The doors are ; 1 all seven inches thick. All around the | house runs an oak fence. Every picket is ] fastened to a rail with a nut and bolt : | so that it is impossible to break one. The pickets could only be ' taken off with a saw. This fence ; was put up by the miser five years ago j so that no one could intrude on his i grounds. The house is a veritable castle and well nigh impregnable. For five ; years Sehanek has declined to see any of : his relatives,or to permit any one to enter. ! He lived on bread and potatoes. Once a I year he killed a pig and made that lust j him for months. He did his own cooking; a loaf of bread sufficed him a week. He has four horses, of which he was very fond, ' in the old barn. All the mangers were j made of iron. The miser spent money in ! but one way; he bad a perfect craze for old muskets and pistols. It was a curious sight that greeted Judge Bpader and the Conovers when they en tered the house. The dirt was an inch thick all over the house. Schanck said a broom had not been seen about the place for eight years. The furniture was musty and moth-eaten. Judge Spader says there were thirty-four muskets and seven big army pistols, altogether about 100 firearms of different kinds. The miser was lying on his bed, mortally ill. He said he had made a will which was to be opened after his death. He remarked: “It you will look around carefully, gentlemen, you will find something to surprise you.” They then began a search. An old musket bar rel was found filled with silver and gold coins worth $300. A stocking full of greenbacks was found in the garret, and in an ancient bureau drawer along with a lot of old iron were $1000 in gold and sil ver, and in a rickety wash-stand drawer was a pile of notes much soiled tied with tarred rope. They aggregated $8000. Be fore the search ended last night they dis covered $30,000 secreted in various parts of the house. Two remained all night with the old man and this morning they re newed the search. It is doubtful whether the miser will live the night out. Great curiosity is expressed as to the will. It is believed Schanck drew it himself. Schanek’s pets were squirrels. Four years ago he built a house of iron, close to the homestead, which he devoted to squirrels. Further developments of wealth are ex pected, and the affair causes great interest. AT CHANCELLORSVILLE. did it if there wasn’t a boy near and the house was full of girls. And just as soon as a little boy wnnts to have some fun making mud pies, or tying tin cans to the dog’s tail, or throwing brickbats at other little boys, or tying strings across the wnlk to throw folks down, or some other innocent amusement, some meddlesome person runs oft’ and tells his mamma, and she comes and spnnks him or shuts him up in a dark closet. I think that's cowardly, too, for mamma al ways says if a big boy whips a little one, it is a sure sign that the big fellow is a cow ard, so she must be a coward when she whips me, ’cause she’s the biggest. I don't like little girls one bit—or I wouldn’t if I could help it, but somehow I can’t. Anyhow, everybody treats them better than hoys. Anything will do for the boys, big foiks say, so they have to wear the coarse shoes and common clothes, and be scolded when their buttons come off or their pantaloons need patch ing. Then they are always sent out of the parlor wheh company comes, “because they are not tit to be seen.” Once in a long while they are allowed to stay in, and then if they trv to be sociable and tie the visitor’s coat to the chair-leg. or stick a pin for him to sit down oil, or slip the chair from under him wilt n papa ! .to preferred tells him to be seated, like emu gb that I {>el. ,v Back- poor little boy's bud mamma will send him j ““« •••■, off to bed Jest for that. I think it Is a I shame ! But the little girls are always called into the parlor when company comes, and called “my dear” and “darling” and lots of nice names, and they play the piano and "show off," and bang their hair and wear ruffles, and that's all girls are tit for. Boys are a great deal smarter than boys. M IKK K'l’M nr i t: i.kgkapii. nt.— Consols - i'luuneial. Lj.vnos. August 20. -1 p. money 100 13-10, account too 7 .. NKW YOUK MONEY MARKET.

It appears that the husband of the former lady is father a handsome man audio well thought ot bv the opposite sex. Among his admirers is the wife of James Claffney. They fre quently met, and each represented to the other that they were unmarried. Last Sunday the couple took a ride on the street cars out Vincennes street to the fair grounds and spent an hour or more under the inviting shade of the trees. Several of the acquaintances of Mrs. Duggins chanced to pass by, and noticed thenu- merous attentions paid to Mis. Clafiftiejr New York, August 24.—From General O. O. Howard’s article on “Stonewall Jackson's Flank Attack at Chancellors- ville,” in the Century for September, the following interesting extract is taken : “Somebody’s guns'thundered away for a few short minutes, and then came the fit ful rattle of musketry; and before I could again get into the saddle there arose the ceaseless roar of the terrible storm. 1 sent out my chief of staff, Col. Armussen, who was the first officer to mount. ‘The firing is in front ot Devens; go and see if all is in order on the extreme right.’ He instantly turned and galloped away. I mounted and set _ oft’ for a prominent place in rear of Bchurz’ line, who was to change front to the northwest of every bridgade southeast, of the point of attack ifthe attack extended beyond Deven’s right flank, for it was divined at once that the enemy was now west of him. I could see numbers of our men—not the few stragglers that always fly like the chaff at the first breeze, but scores of them—rushing into the opening, some with arms and some without, run ning or falling before they got behind the covers of Deven’s reserves, and before Gen. Schurz’ waiting masses could deploy or charge. The noise and the smoke tilled the air with excitement and to add to it Dieekmann’s gunsl and caissons, with batterymeu scattered, rolled and tumbled like runaway wagons and carts in a thronged city. The guns and the masses of the right brigade struck the second line of Deven’s before McLean’s front had given way and, quicker than it could lie told, with all the fury of the wildest hail storm, everything, every sort of organization that lav in the path of the mad current of panic- stricken men had to give way and be broken into fragments. My own horse seemed to catch the fury. He sprang, he rose high on his hind legs and fell over, throwing me to the ground. My aide- de-camp, Dessauer. was struck by a shot and killed, and for a few moments I was as helpless as any of the men who were speeding without arms to the real'. But faithlul orderlies helped me to remount. I rode quicklv to the reserve batteries. A staff officer of Gen. Hooker, Lieut. Col. Dickin son, joined me there. My owu stall'gath ered around me, I was eager to fill the trenches which Barlow would have held. Buschbeclt’s second line was ordered to change front there. His men kept their ranks, but at first they appeared slow. ‘Will thev never get there ?’ Dickinson said: ‘Oh, general, see those men coming from that hill, way off to the right, and there’s the enemy after them. Fire, oh, fire at them; you may stop the flight.’ ‘No, colonel,’ 1 said, ‘I will never fire on my owu men.’ ” Hobble on Boys* Bight** Detroit Free Press. My mamma is always talking about woman’s rights—says they are going to have them, too, but 1 guess the poor little bovs haven’t got. any rights, or, if they have, big folks are a long time finding it out. , , I just tell you there is never anything done wrong about our house, but what papa or mamma or nurse or somebody says: “Oh! the boys did it, of course.” I’ve heard that in some places everything bad is blamed on the cat, but in our house everything is blamed on the boys. If somebody pinches pieces out of the cake before tea, or upsets the tea-pot, or breaks a cup, or eats the jelly, cook walks square into the house and tells mamma “the boys did it.” Yes, she’d say the boys Now York Sun. The explorations of recent years have considerably changed our notions of the comparative rank of the great rivers of the wond. If we class rivers according to their length, both the Nile and the Yangtse- iviang must be named before the Amazon. The Nile’s 4000 miles of waterway, from its headwaters south of Lake Victoria to the Mediterranean, make it the largest river in the world, nearly us long us the j 6,1, good ordinary Orleans 1 11-ldrt Mississippi and Missouri togotuer, and | oilcans 4 7-itkl. about 1000 miles longer than the A mazon. The Amazon is the greatest river in the world, because it has immense tributaries, some of them larger than the Danube or the Rhine; by means of which the Amazon basin covers an urea about 1,000,000 square miles greater tbau that of any other river. The Congo river is the fourth longest river in the world, but in the volume of water that it purs into the ocean it is second only to tile Amazon. <■' A very curious thing has been discovered about the three greatest river basins in South America—the Orinoco, the Amazon and the Platte basins. Il has been found that they are so connected by water courses that the traveller can pass in steamboats ft 8 ™ or canoes from one river system into an other. He can ascend the Orinieo river for hundreds of miles until he comes to the Cassiquiari, on which he can travel for about two hundred miles to the Rio Ne gro, one of the largest tributaries of the Amazon. Flouting down to the Amazon, and then descending that river for some distance, he can ascend the great Maderia tributary. In its upper course be can turn into the Mamore, then into the Guapore, then into the little Alegre river. Here, as is often done, he can haul his canoe over a low, grassy flat about two miles wide and launch it into tlie Rio Agoapehy, and then descend by the Jauru and Paraguay to Buenos Ayres and the Platte river.

C. Curtis, , a retired sea captain, who is “anchored” j at No. 54 Clinton place, called upon J>r. day. Capt. Curtis has been in poor health ] lately, and he lays it to poisoning by ailanthus trees that abound in his neigli borhood. His errand was to impress upon the health officers the necessity of doing something to get rid ol' the plague. Capt. Curtis believes the trees are injurious enough to warrant the health oiiieers in inaugurating a regular campaign against them. “Jo Boston, Aug 26. 9; „e; net receipts 6310; exports to Great Britain 00.

She lues lmd a long and varied career of formal and informal wedlock. On her professional visit to this country last year with Henry Irving the hospitality extended to him stopped snort of her, and Fifth avenue was not open to her at al), while lie was welcomed. The present visit by Irving is avowedly for pleasure only. Theatrical men discern in it a purpose of keeping himself in the remembrance of tlie American people during the forthcoming tour of his London rival, Wilson Barrett. But he is to do no acting. Nevertheless, Ellen Terry came with him, as before ; but this time she was invited to become a guest of the modish Mrs. Lockwood, a sister of Secretary Bayard, at Narragansett Pier, where she is now, with several members of the secretary’s family for companions. Ellen Is a conspicuous figure at the Rhode Island watering place. St I.ouih, August M.
