Stonewall Jaokson-
M. Quad in Dctro.t Free Flu as.
11l these sketches Stonewall Jack
son's battles have boon tuKen in re
verse. Wo fouml trim first on the
blood stained field of AntietSra
almost at tho oloso of his career, in
stead of at tlie beginning. The
world Knows how ho fought there.
We found him at Kemstown fight
ing one to four, fighting, fulliug
bu-.K, grimly giviug way to fight
again. Wesaw him striKo tho Fed
eral armies light and left in the
valley and fill Washington with
white faces. Wo found him at Fred
ericksburg on Leo's right; at Chan
cellorsville in Hooicer's rearjat M i
nassas behind Pope.on his flank,in his
front. We have found him at (laities’
Mill. Kate waited for him before
striking a last blow. It was the ham
mer in his grasp which shattered the
Federal position, without him Long
street and Mill would have been
pressed back, routed, annihilated.
A Christian in faith a child in his
sympathies -a general who eared not
lor the world’s admiration so much as
for the comfort ot any single man who
followed him in his wonderful marches-
He had the courage of a lion and the
heart of a woman. The pomp and
glitter of war were not tor him. llis
banners grew old ami laded and shot
torn. His legions grew ragged and
footsore an I weary. No matter who
hesitated -Jackson advanced. Fierce
in the heat of battle, because it was
his duty to kill, when the roar of can
non died away the groans of the
wounded reached a heart which had
a throb for every groan.
Partisans may keep their bitterness
of heart, but the world has spoken-
Hie man whom they hate died for
giving all. Struck down at Chancel
lorsville, amid the roar of battle, he
was removed to die amid the softest
peace. Strongmen wept like child
ren when they saw that his last hour
had come ; but if they had a feeling of
revenge down under their sorrow, he
hail nunc. W illi malice toward none ;
with forgiveness lor all, his life went
out as his pale lips whispered :
“Let us cross over and rest under the
gre- n treesj
What it Costs to Gain a Lit
tle Experience in Life
-9 We are not so frolicKaomo now
wo w ro forty or hfty years ago,
says Bill Nye, but wo know more.
It is truo wo cannot, go in swim
ming all day with impunity or walk
around a billiard table all day and
thop glide through the Blue Danube
waltz all night as wo onco could,
but wo have acq tired Hour high
experience and put it whore
we can yet at it.
Wo were making an estimate last
evening of the va’ue of a few items
of experience which we now have
on hand. And among the more
va! tables ouch wo may namo the
following:
(lost, of experiments with mixed
drinks, $2,000.
Expense of calling a largo, heal
thy man a liar, SSO.
Experiments in going without
undcrclotho*, $5,760,
IVttlo lessons in investigating
different games of chance, with a
view to making them a business,s2,-
500,
Cost of unavailing effort to pre
vent baldness, $782 20.
Expense of personal investiga
tion of LiUerie-q 035 2fi.
Actual cost of obt lining sl3
worth of fame, which is now for
gale at the above pi ico and still in
good working order, though sligh
tly tarnished, at $17,380.
There are other expensive little
nuggets and gobs of ripe exper.
ience that we have on hand,and wo
cannot look on them without a par
donable pride.
* I’is true that what we have
earned is not very valuable to oth
ers, but it is a good thing to have,
and we can use it right aong in onr
business. We will try to work it off’
on the oldest sor: when he gets here
but he will not use it.
lie would rather go and bny it
the way we did. ftArrnation that,
does not cost $2,00 a hunk is no
good. It comes high but we have
to have it,

The In§ect Population.
The number of varieties of insect
is vastly greater than that of all
other living creatures. The oak
supports 450 species of insects and
200 are found in the pine.—Hum
boldt, in 1849, calculated that be
tween 150,000 and 170,000 speci
mens were preserved in collec
tions,but recent estimates place the
present number at about 750,000.
An old sailor was observed to be
alw .ys hanging about the door of a
! church when a marriage waH tak
i ing place. Hu explained that he
liked to see the tide going out,.
All Sorts.
Sara Bernhardt was recently mar
ried to 51 Daraala, a Greek. It
is said that ho wis lately attrac
ted to the stage, and has recen
tly been acting with Mile, Bernd
hardt. Both will play in London
at the end of next month.
Bertha Miller, a girl of sixteen
years, was taken to eßUevue Hos
pital recently with a ten dollar
gold piece stuck last in her throat
in a position that threatened her
with suffocation. Tho girl acci
dentally swallowed tho coin, and it
bulged at tho outranoo to the wind
pipe so firmly that no surgical skill
could remove it,
L-st year 10,053 persons left
Switzerland for the United States,
as against 7,255 in 1880, and 4,288
in 1579. As Swiizerland has a pop
ulation of only 2,800.000, this rate
of emigration must make serious
inroads upon her prosperty.
When a girl rejects an offer of
marriige she gees through a sleight
of hand performance.
An old negro says: Sass is pow

The editor who called Chicago a
Christian country ought to he bi t*
ter posted in religious geography,
A California editor started to
accomplish tho oft-attempted feat
of eating thirty quail in as many
consecutive days. Tho experiment
foiled in consequence of tho singu
lar behavior of a restaur, nt keeper,
who refused to furnish tlie quail for
nothing. Tuns it is that (lie prog
ress of scientific inquiry is defeated
and retarded by the narrow preju
dices ot tho ignorant and debased.
It is no longer a matter of pride
to have a high forehead. A cow
has that, and sho is very low-iy,
Sn to his lathor, who asked him
where ho is in his class now: Oh,
pa, I'vo got a much bettor place
than Iliad last quirtcr.—lndeed!
Well, where arc you? I'm four

bones! You wore oiglit la-t term.
Do you call that a bettor place?
Y B,|nir, it's nearer tho stoyo.
Tho ten plagues of a nowspapaper
offii'o are bores, poots, cranks, rats,

self.
A Frenclnn in says a widow is
like a ship whose captain has been
lost. This is merely like a ship
that has lost its second officer.
Both feel the need of another
male.
Does a man break iut •- humor

A Metaphysical Combat.
The great colored preacher of
tlie Baptit_is pitted against tlie
Methodist divine. Tlie first says:
“Do Methediss, my brudden, is like
do grass-hopper —huppin', all de
time huppin'—hop into hebcii, ho,.
out, hop into hebuu, hop out. But,
my brudden, de Biptiss, when he
get to lichen lie's dar.—Do Baptise
is like du ‘possum.—Hunter get af
ter him; lie climb do tree; ho shake
do limb, one foot gone; ho shako
do limb, anuddor foot gone; he
shake de limb, ebbory foot gone;
but tmk you, my bruddreu, de
‘possum fall? You know my brud
dieu —you cotoh too many—you
know ‘possum hang on by du Jt nl,
and do burry debbil can't shako him
off.'' Then Molhody foil nelow par
in tho colored loins' heart, uulil
some time afterward, when this par
tioulnr belief again had admirers,
for the opposition cleric demolished
the Baptists follows: “His text
was My sheep boars my voice and

its great end final triumph.—New
