Johnston's grandfather was born in Scotland 1^3 years before bin own birth.

We asked the Cuban to tell us something about a warmer cli mate for a change. Senor Raraeriz thought a moment and then rela ted the following incident: “I am a Cuban and I love Cu ba, yet the extreme beat of tome months each year is unbearable. You remember the entrance to Havana harbor is guarded Morro castle. The garrison Dim bers aboul 200 men. Three years ago last June the temperature rose beyond all previous records and the suffering was intense. The authorities were dreading the pus aible invaaion of Cuba’s deadliest scourge—yellow feveF. News came to the city of the breaking out of the fever at the castle. Immediately steps were taken fm the complete isolation of the fort. Ns boats were allowed to land from the infected locality and none were brave enough to venture the casting of their lot with the garrison. “The beat waxed ie intensity as the days went by. Long bad the distress signal waved from the fort flagstaff. The inmates were known to be dying by the score, and in need of medicines and sup plies of all kinds, yet in all Havana aotoae heart aeemed brave enongh to make the venture of relief. which so surely seemed certain death. Each morning crowds gathered pa the piers and gazed sorrowfully acmes the waters te the fated island. At eenaet each day we watched the gates open and funeral corteges wind their way down the bill to the little garrison cemetery; we listeeed for the volleys of salute their number denoting how many brave fellows had succumbed that day. “One morning the climax ap peared to be reached. The sun’s rays fairly penetrated one’s cloth ing and scorched the skin beneath. No air was atirriag, and the water looked like hot and burnished steel. All Havana was gathered near the shore, watching anew the spot where fellow human beings were bravely dying, yet gave ao sign. As we apathetically gased across the water, for the first time in three long weeks e boat shot forth from the pier of Havana. It was loaded to the gunwales with provisions and medicines, and none in that crowd needed to be told its destination. Our eyes then sought the guider of the lit tle emit, and, to our horror, saw the sole occupant was a woman. -Many a blnab burned red on bested cheeks that moment. Thee a universal shoot of proteat came —loo late. Our coward hearts, shamed by that brave woman’s faarleaa net, awakened no to offer as volunteer* She paused an in stant from her rowing and silenced oqr marmnriegs with a wave of her small haad. ‘I am alone,’ she •aid; ‘from all Havana not one regret will fellow me. ’Tie better that 1 eheeld go then n life upon whose tenure hange the fata of others.

Dear Editors : I reckon it would be nothing amiss to give a few sketches now and then of Confederate times through your columns. I will first slate where we were, or some of us who were in tbe 13lb Ga. regiment: On June 27lb, 1862, we were near Richmond, Va., fighting yankeea. I will never forget tbe time. It was Friday, and we went into the figlft in the eveuing, ail eager for the fray, but scared so bad we didn't know what we were doing. Some say we fired into our own troops, but it was so smoky I don't know; and something else was the matter with me. I bad a chill, but was not cold. After dark wc baited on the balllefielit, there being plenty ot knapsacks as well as dead yankees lying all around us One from each mess was permit ted In leave tbe ranks and gel blankets for the rest, as we were wet with perspiration and the dew was falling on u* I was sent from my mess, and old soldiers know that what was done had to be done quickly—p sort of grab game. 1 went in baste, for fear I would get none. It was dark, and tbe first bulk I discovered I grab bed it. It proved to be a dead yankee, and I stuck my finger in bis mouth the first grsb I made, and that was as much blanket as I wauled. I went back to the lines and gave one of my mesa two hiscuita to go in my place. The wounded were crying, praying and calling for help, and water, in all parts of the field and woods. Dis tressing calls they were, aad made by men from the various* States. Next morning some recruits came to ua, and one began to pick up relics off the battle field to send home to friends, such as pieces of shells and grape aad canister shot, and minnie balls. Tbe boys no ticing him, began to assist, and soon had about a half bnabel for him, but making him mad be threw them away with tbe remark that be was ao tool. I will next mention tbe 13th of Jane, 1863, at Winchester, Va — Here we had a fight, whipped the yankees, and bad n good time while going down the valley. I will now skip to June 2d and 3d. 1864. We had a little fight with the yankee sbarpggootrs called Ellsworth Zouaves who wore red velvet suits. We were then called to Lynchburg, and on the 18th bad a skirmish with tbe yankees, driving-tbem across tke mountain, down.tbe Valley, and on tbe 24lb we rested at the Nat ural Bridge, I will state that I have my can teen and haversack yet, that I had in the war. They are not Confed erate, however, and I don’t recol lect how long I bad kept them be fore, but bad item at tbe close of the war. 1 also have a pocket coarse comb, that I carried with me when I left Cuthbert July 5th, 1861; also have n pocket bible, which waa given to onr mesa, of five men. at Grifla, on July 8th, 1861, by n good lady, whose name is ua one of its pages.

The singing shad has been seen and heard in lower Delaware bay this spring. It hasn't been seen in large quantities, of course, for the appearance of this odd fish in these waters is a rare occurence. But few of the singing shad have enchanted the fishermen since the season began. They come from the south, and only when the wind has died down and the water is quiet They come ia schools emit ting musical notes as they swim along. Tbe sounds they iglke are soft and something like those of an need i an harp. It is bard to express, or rather imitate, on pa per, the melody they sing. Iff rant something like this: Wee bo, be hi do de; wee bo, die dun. This sound cannot be made with any effect, except when the shad travel in schools. The singing of a single shad- is too feeble to tie heard above the ripple of the wa I ter. This year has been the first j probably for a decade, that the j singing shad has tavored tbe fi»h- {ermen of Delaware Bay. Capt | Arnold, one of tbe oldest and most | truthful of South Jersey fishermen, said the other day that he had heard tbe singing shad a number of limes in bia piscatorial career. “They are rare of course, so far north as this. Even when they do come only old fishers are apt of those people in tbe North who have formed the idea that the co’- ored people in tbe Sooth are op pressed and denied the privilege of advancement and bappineas. They would have seen a sight that would have forever removed that idea from their minds. If they could have seen the long pro cession . of tbe colored Sunday schools of this city, as it marched through our ttreets on its way to Magnolia Dvli to attend the an nual picnic, they would have seen hundreds of well dressed and hap py children and adults, whose courteous deportment and appear ance indicated prosperity and happiness in a degree equal to tbe same number of white people in any northern city on a similar occasion. II they conld have seen the long tables spread under the magnolia trees, and upon those tables spread sucb a profusion of nicely cooked eatables as would tempt an epicure, they would nev er associate the colored people of Georgia with the gaunt, ill-dress ed, starving vagrants of tbe north, nor would they ever again think of them as an oppressed and de graded people. If they could have seen the white gentlemen and ladies ami children who visited this picnic, and seen tbe welcome that was given them, and the kind ly feeling existing between them, they would have been disabused of the idea t hat there existed a feeling of animosity between tbe races. We should have liked to have bad those northern visitors with ua that day, for it would have been a novel and pleasing sight to them. We should have liked to have to bear and distinguish them. We taken theee same northern vieitors know about them and are more or to see tbe handsome and conven iens on tbe lookont for their occa sional arrival. They really be long off the coast of Bolivia aad Chili. There they are quite com mon. All aorta oi fairy tales are narrated about them by South American fishermen. The ting ing abad alto breed in Japanese waters. The fishermen of Japan are delighted when they strike a school of singing shad. They fol low them up reverently, liecause they believe tbe fish are inspired. They throw them food and never catch or eat them. The singing abad ia different from the common back or roe shad, ft is lbt so Urge, and there ie a slight difference in the formation of tbe mouth. Only an expert fisherman can tell when be baa caught one of the finny songsters. Old fishermen regard tbe musical shad as prizes, aad do not send them to market unless they are paid a very high price for them. It ia estimated that they travfl in schools of about five hundred.— Their singing is pleasing at Brat, but soon grows monotonous, owing to tbe fact that it is n constant repetition of the same few sound* Whether many of these peculiar fish ever go on up the Delaware or move onto New York ami min gle with the plain every day Had ana river shad is not known. They lose their identity when they gat in with other fab, and it in doubt ful if they ever ting alone.—Cepe Stag Dispatch to Bait.

Wc should have liked to baye intro dneed our northern visitors to the members ot our School Board, who have so handsomely provided for the education of the colored children, nearly every man having been in the Confederate army and a slaveholder. We should have beenqileased to show our visitors the numbers W neat little cottages occupied by our colored people, well furnished, and exhibiting evidences of iadua try, thrift and advancement.

Malleable Glass. What is this dirt yon sweep np, anyway? asks a writer in the St. Louis Globe. The qoeereet stuff imaginable. Should you burn it in the passage, its candescence would show, with the spectro scope, lines indicating almost all known substances. Tbe iron lines' would indicate the wear from the nails in your sh^es. The carbon lines would come from the coal dust, and tbe yellow aalt lines would only show that chloride of sodium is always present every where. But where you have old wall papers, old carpets, yon can lie sore that some of this dust is several generations old; and if there be nut some bacteria of a bad sort, and germs of old levera with all the rest, I shall be sur-' j prised. You have only to mildly exercise your imagination to see minute, personal relics of all the visitors you have bad; and indeed, your broom will swish ail the fiercer when yon think of it I dw not like each accumulations, nor do I like the neceesiiy ot sweeping: my neighbors out of doors.
