TILE UENTILE AND .1 LAV AFFAIR.
Henry Marti Beceher on the llillon-
Neligmtin All’ll Ir.
New York, June 24. — TJev. Henry
Ward Reedier ntmouneed from the pulpit
to-day that bin discourse that evening would
he in relation to Jews. The announce
ment attracted a large congregation, and
there were many unable to gain admit
tance. He look for his text the34th verse,
11th of Acts. Mr. Boodier said that he
became intimately acquainted with Mr.
Seligman at the twin Mountain house and
knew him well, lie knew him to be an
estimable gentleman in every way, and
sense of the word. The Jews formed a
large portion of onr community, and wc
must sav they were not only execl'ent and
thrifty citizens, hut exceptionally law-aid
ding people. lie considered that a great
insult had been put upon them, but it had
so shocked the intelligent and refined peo
ple—those whose opinions were worthy of
respect —that it led the Isrcalitcs of the
country to believe they were bold in great
respect by their Christian fellow-citizens.
He further remarked that they had never
stolen ten millions from the city, and en
deavored to make terms in jail. Of all
people, they were the last that should have
been insulted, lie did not think it a good
sign to see a man who had inherited his
money cast an insult upon a man who made
his estates by honest and honorable indus
try'. In the end, he thought, good would
come of (he insult, and lie would advise
them not to hold a public meeting or put
on armor to fight mosquitoes.
A lie lie I Seoul'* Advent lire.
Central McClellan in the I’hiladclpliia Timet.
When the Federal army occupied Cul
pepper Court Mouse, and the Confederate
army lay in Orange county, Virginia, Gen
eral l.ec desired certain information which
it seemed could he best obtained by an in
dividual scout, and Stringfellow was elect
ed for the service. It was necessary that
he should penetrate the enemy's camps,
remaining concealed as long as possible,
and return when he had collected the de
sired information. His operations were to
be conducted mostly at night, lie wished
to be accompanied by two men. one of
whom, Farrish by name, had bis home in
the immediate vicinity of the enemy’s
camps, and being intimately acquainted
with all the country, could accurately
guide him from place to place in the night
ashy daylight. The expedition was un
dertaken on foot, as the distance was not
great and conccalmant was a prime impor
tance. The men were clad in their own
uniform as scouts, not.spies. The country
was a difficult one for the operations of a
scout. From the long and frequent occu
fiation by both the contending armies, the
and had been almost entirly denuded of its
timber, and only hero and there a few thin
clusters of trees remained standing. One
day had passed since they had entered the
enemy’s lines, ami with nightfall (bey com
menced their wanderings among the hostile
camps, mainly with the purpose of locating
the different corps, and of ascertaining
whether any troops had been detached
from the army of the Potomac. The night
had been nearly consumed in this way
when, reaching one of the clusters of trees
of which I have spoken, they laid themsel
ves down to catch a few moments rest. A
single blanket covered the three men.
Treacherous, fatal sleep ! Their fatigue
was great, and the night was further spent
than they had supposed, and the sun was
shining bright in tlieir eyes when a party
of six Federal officers, with their muskets
in their hands pulled away the blankets
which covered them, amt saluted them
with a harmonious “Good morning, John
ny Reb ! wake up!” Stringfellow, lying
upon bis back, was the first to arouse and
to comprehend his situation. Knowing
that an open attempt to seize his arms
would draw upon himself instant death,
he feigned to be only half awakened, and,
much to the amusement of his tormentors,
turned upon his side muttering and grum
bling at being awakened, telling them to
go away and let him alone. Hut by tuni
ng upon his side lie gave to himself an op
portunity of placing his hand unobserved,
upon the handle of his pistol, and in an
other second he sprang upon his feet and
opened lire. Ilis companions joined in the
attack, ; nd for a few moments the firing
was rapid and fatal. The Federal soldiers
stood their ground, but at such close quar
ters the musket was no match for the re
volver. There was no time to reload un
der the quick eye of Stringfellow. and once
discharged the muskets were useless. A
few seconds terminated the encounter ; in
which Stringfellow found himself the sole
survivor of his party. Farrish was killed ;
his other comrade had disappeared, he
knew not how; four of the Federal soldiers
lay dead at his feet, and the two others,
having thrown down their empty guns,
were running for their lives.
But victor in this fight, perils
multiplied themselves around him. The
trees among which lie stood were surround
ed on every side by open fields dotted thick
with the enemies’ tents, some at a distance,
and some close at hand. Concealment,
was impossible, and lie must run for his
life ; Uut run in what direction he might,
enemies would be sure to intercept his
course, for the adjacent camps bad been
aroused by the firing, and the soldiers who
had escaped would be sure to return with
■others to avenge the death of tlieir com
rades. At a distance of a few hundred
yards a little branch made its way through
the open fields towards the river. Its
banks were fringed with bushes, and while
it offered only an utterly forlorn hope,
Stringfellow turned towards it and ran.
He was seen by those who had already
started for his capture; seen to cross the
open field ; seen to enter the brush on the
bank of the stream. And now vindictive
shouts announced that the enemy felt sc
sure of their prey. But not so ! Entering
tha bed of the stream, a kind Providence
guided him to the spot where the waters
had hollowed out for him a hiding place
beneath the roots of an old stump. Under
neath this bank and behind these roots he
forced his body, having hastily collected
what driftwood was within reach still fur
ther to conceal his person ; and there he
lay, half covered by the water and mud,
and awaited the result. From every di
rection men were hurrying to the spot,
with the perfect assurarce that the daring
enemy would soon be within their power!
For Ion", long hours did scores of search
ers continue to examine every foot of the
brush that lined the stream. Many times
! did hustle feet pass directly over Stringfel-
I low’s body, and once a man more inouisi
' live than the others stooped, while walking
in the bed of the stream, to examine the
very spot where he lay. But the drift
wood which ho had .skillfully arranged for
his concealment deceived the man, and he
passed on without making the discovery.
Toward afternoon the search was aban
doned. But not until the noise of the
camps was hushed in slumber did String
fellow dare to leave his retreat. Then,
following for some time the course of the
little stream, he passed in safety out of
the enemy’s line, swam the Kantefon be
tween the pickets, and. thankful to God
for his deliverance, found himself once
more among his friends.
At a Sunday school a teacher asked a
little boy if he knew what the expression
“Sowing tares ” meant. “Courlh I do,”
said he pulling a part of his ( rowsers around
in front. “ There’s a tear my ilia sewed ;
I feared it when I was sliding down hill.”
Mrs. Ilndlock, of Newport, Yt., met in
the street a man who had circulated derog
atory stories about her. She had prepared
herself for the occasion. First, she took
pepper from her pocket and threw it in his
eyes; secondly, she took a rawhide from
her bustle ami struck him several times
with it; thirdly, she took a rotten egg
from her hand bag and smashed it in his
face.
A young girl from the country, being on
a visit to a Quaker, was prevailed on to
accompany him to the meeting. It hap
pened to he a silent one, none of the breth
ren being moved to utter a syllable. When
the Quaker left the meeting-house, with
his young friend, he asked : “ How didst
Ihee like the meeting?” To which she pet
tishly replied: “Like it! Why, 1 can
see no sense in it—to go and sit for whole
houis together without speaking a word.
It is enough to kill Satan himself!” “ Yes,
my dear,” rejoined the Quaker ; “that is
just what we want.”
Grant’s distinguished reception by the
royalty and nobility of England is very
gratifying to him. His feelings and con
duct on the occasion of his dining with the
Prince of Wales were no doubt similar to
those described by tbe New York Sun, on
another grand occasion at Washington,
some years ago:
“ A pleasant lie nmole,
A holy wink lie wunk ;
<). it wan a glorious ihing to think
Tlio generous llioe;;htnlie thunk.”
