Incident of Wilson’s Raid—No
ble Conduct of an Ohio Captain.
The Memphis Avalanche publishes the fol
lowing incident which occurred during Wil
son’s raid :
On Wednesdiy after the fall of Selma, some
young ladies of the Female College in Sum
meifield, informed the President that one of the
Female teachers was running rapidly before a
Federal soldier. He immediately went to the
“Front" and met Miss 8. in great terror. The
soldier had demanded her watch, which was
secreted iu the college, and under a threat of
violence to her person, she had promised to
give it to him. The Doctor said to her “you
must not let him have the watch, oe is a scoun
drel and shall not have it.” She said. “Oh I
Dostor, if you knew how he bad threatened me i
you would not blame me. I promised it to him
and he must have it.” So saying, and eluding
the attempt, of the Doctor to take it from her
she ran and delivered it to the soldier robber.
Then such a volley ot indignant abuse as hard
ly ever fell from the lips of a minister was
poured fourth on the jofflin. He called him
scoundrel, thief, robber, brute, villian, and or
dered him to begone. The viliian pointed his
gun and threatened to shoot. This d d not in
timidate the preacher who was a cripple, and
unarmed and in uflgovernable rage be cons
tinued to use tbe only weapon he had—his
tongue—until the robber beat, a retreat, his
ears tingling wilh tbe words of impotent wrath
which indicated that the blood ot the indig
nant Southerner bad been raised to fever heat.
All this occunei in the presence of the school;
the ministers wife fainted and was removed
insensible to her room.
Tbe robbery, the threat of violating the per
son of a noble southern woman, and tbe threat,
also, to kill the gentleman at tbe head of the
school, were all reported to headquarters.—
Captain Mcßatney, of General Wilson’s staff,
took interest in the matter, had the same
column to pass before the school, and the man
was identified and arrested, and the watch was
returned. But this was not all. The Captain
obtained from General Wilson protection pa*
pers for tbe, College, and kept it guarded
whenever pcsiible. He weut still further, and
o died for Miss , and said to her: “I have
a present for you.” He then handed her an
elegant six shooter, and said: Take this, and if
any < ffleer of our army steps his foot across the
threshhold of this College, with evil intent,
shoot him. No one can conceive tbe effect of
this noble conduct on the part of the gallant
Captain. The feeling of insecurity which had |
taken hold of the inmates ot the College was
dissipated, and many an earnest prayer weut
up from warm southern hearts for the safety ot
Captain Mcßarney. Very different was the
conduct of Colonel Noble, who upon the case
being represented to him, simply and careless
ly said: “Your soldiers did us bad at Cham
bersburg.”
Now, if Captain Mcßarney, ot the Ist Ohio
Volunteers, should ever see this, let him feel
that g'atitude warm and deep filled every
heart in Centenary College, and that bis chiv
alrous gallantry made an impression upon free
southern hi-arts which time will never efface.

Wonder what makes papa tell Buch nice

about bis running away from the school
mistress when she was going to whip him
and then shut me up in a dark room all day
because I tried just ones to be as smart as he
was.
Wonder what made papa say that wicked
word when Betsy upset tbe ink all over his
papers, and then slapped my ears because I
said tbe same thing when my kite,string

Wonder why mama told Bridget the other

A Singular Case.—Wo heard of a singu
lar case in the returns of the income tax the
other d y, as follows: A gentleman in the
year 1863 made some SBO,OOO by speculations
in cotton, and in January of 1864, reported
the same, but during the first part of the
year, owing to tbe great 'all in cotton and
gold, be lost not only what he had made, but
all his own and friends’ money in unlucky
speculations. On last May (wo believe that
was the month) the payment of the tax on
the earnings of 1863 became due. and found
tbe gentleman penniless. The United States
claimed the payment, and still claims it of
him, though no proceedings have yet been
taken to get it by law.— Memphit Eullclin.

A Thrilling Incident.-On Monday night
Mr. McKean Buchanan and his daughter, Virs
ginia, were announced for “Hamilet” at Terre
Haute. Mrs. Buchanan was at the time lying
very dangerously ill at the Terre Haute House
of neuralgia of me heart After the first scene
it was announced that Miss B. would not be
able to appear as “Ophelia,” on account of
her mother’s sickness, and it the play went on
her part would have to be omitted. The au
dience desired the dramt to proceed, but when
Mr. Buchanan appeared, and commenced the
soliloquy “To be or not be—” he was noticed
to lack bin usual fire and energy. He had not
proceeded halt a dozen lines, when bis faltering
voice broke, and falling into a chair, he exs
Claimed: “My wife is dying—lake your money
run down the 1 cannot play!” and the
audience slowly and sadly dispersed. .Mrs.
Buchanan was dead when her busband reached
the hotel.
The Pope in a Bad Way—His Health Fails
ing and His Mind Giving Out. - In a letter
from Rome, published iu the London Daily
Mail Gazette, it is stated that the Pope tins
had another turn during the last few days, and
the doctor* have been somewhat ut>ea.-y about
him. His Immediate attendants say they ob
serve signs ol growing feebleness in him, that
bis memory is shaken, and that he yields more
than Ln. in -rly to violent, predilections and an
tipathies. Tills is said to be especially notice
able in regard to tbe impressions ot earlier
years, which seem to be gradually coming
back to him. He shows a marked leaning to
wards Italy and the house of Savoy. He has
even, it is reported, been heard, iu conver
sation with some ol bis more intimate friends,
to pronose the investiture of Victor Emmanu
el as Vicar of tbe Holy See in tbe Romagna,
the Marches and Umbris.
A Singular Case of Impaired Eyesight.—
A physician in the city is at present attend
ing a youn gman afflicted with a severe affec
tion of tho eyes. It is said that the disease
was contracted by the patient, a highly re
spectable youth, while adjusting the retina of
his right eye to the keyhole of a room occu
pied by a servant maid, who bas a predilec
tion for cayenne pepper in her toilet as well
as culinary arrangements. The case should
prove an effectual warning to all young men
against, subjecting their eyesight to severe
strain in looking through small orifices. Tho
physician designates the malady described as
‘‘blinder-pest,”— Hamilton (C. IF.) Times.
——
The San Anton o (Texas) Herald says that,
with tbe exception of fifteen or twenty fights
and the exchange of a few friendly shots,
without any unfortunate results, nothing has
happened for two days of moment in that
city. There had been no cases of citizens
being disturbed by the soldiers—quarrels
being altogether among tbe latter, and all
between regulars and volunteers. Hundreds
ot disorderly soldiers were about the streets
and the r principal amusements seemed to be
fighting—a “regular” would step out. and say
he could whip any d—d Third Michigander,
when a fight was uur« to ensue.
A well known broker informs the local that
there is a great amount of countefeit in cir
culation ; they are well executed and very
dangerous. Tho denominations counterfeited
are 100’s, 50’s, 20’s, 10’s, s’s, 2’s and I’s
There is also a great amount of counterfeit
postage currency of fifty and twenty.five cent
denominations.
The small-pox in Houston has been con

The State convention are acting on the
most economical principle—they ordered only
one thousand copies of the Governor’s mes
sage, and take but five of each of the Austin
papers.— lndianola (Texas') Times.
Mrs. Avonia Brooke, nee Jones, tbe Ameri
can actress, is creating a furore in London.
She is always attended by a superb Newfound
land dog, endowed with wonderful intelli
gence. He is admitted into the saloons which
his mistress graces ; in railway carriages and
s’ ■ üboats he is by her side in defiance of rules-,
eps beneath b-r bed ; sits in a private
■K wi ti h'T —t ♦tie theater, and W— telips over
berai rehearsals. Ofl one occasion,when she
was rehearsing Leah, and bad to bo dragged
from tbe stage, the dog, who seemed to un
derstand everything, except this apparent
maltreatment of bis mistress, leaped upon the
man who had seized her, and, but for timely
interference, would tave indicted condign
punishment.
Stock for the South—The New Albany
(Indiana) Journal writes that the number of
mules shipped from that city and Portland to
the South, since the 28th day of November,
1865, exceeds ten thousand, and shipments
still continue to be mads without any abate
ment in numbers. Daring*no previous sea
son for the past ten years .has the number
shipped exceeded eight thousand. The price
