From the Boston Traveler.
One morning in the month of Sep
tember, 1826, a young man about 18
years of age was walking on a moun
tain roi«l from North Carolina load
ing to Washington County, Tenn.
It was a lonely road and tho boy
presented a poor appearance. There
was nothing attractive about him
nor the little bundle which hung on
the end of a rough Htick resting on
his shoulder.
As the boy readied the top of the
hill ho stopped and looked over to
wards Tennessee. The sosnery was
grand, and peak after peak, all
heavily wooded, oould be seen as far
as the eye oould reaoh. While thus
musing he was startled by the clatter
ot a horse’s hoofa andjturniug, beheld
man mounSfl. upon a powerful
horse approaching him at a trot.
At the appearance of the individual
in the saddle, the boy’s face betrayed
look of interest. The newcomer
was a man of between fifty qml sixty
years of age, tall, thin nnd with an
ereotness that denoted military train
ing. He rode his horse, which was n
handsome thoroughbred, with the air
of a man used to commanding and
with an ease thnt betrayed familiarity
with the saddle. His face was olose
shaven,'' disclosing a firm mouth with
thin lips and a pair of eyes that were
very brilliant.
Xhe whole appearance of tlie new-
^ner was that of a man of energy,
earlessncps and ability, and the boy
gazed witli no small amount of awe
on the formidable figure of the
stranger. His demeanor associated
in the mind of the boy the bearing of
a general, so touching his hut ha snick
‘Good evening, general.’ The stranger
appeared surprised, and asked the
boy if he knew him. The auswer was
in the negative. The newcoine;
peared somewhat interested
youthful oompanion, and they
ed into conversation. The boy con
fessed that he could not read or
write or spell, but had heard a few
things read from an old school book.
He was a very simple-minded boy,
but the kind manner of the stranger
appeared to set him at ease, and he
frankly told him that he was going to
Tennessee to seek his fortune. The
horseman encouraged him,/and to
gether they reached the crossroads,

I WANT YOU 80.
Deep in the cool and quiet grass,
Never a human step to pass,
Rending cedars u watch to keep,
All things wrapt in a silence deep;
When through the twilight shines afar
The pale face of the evonlng star;
I whisper to the grasses low :
*‘I want you so! I want you so!"
All through tho slowly passing days
I tread my quiet walks and wavs;
I have not shunned life’s tender grace,
I wear no sadness la my face;
But when I lie twilight shadows full,
And peaceful quiet, reigns o’er all,
What wrong to breathe, slnco none can
know,
"I want you so! I,want you so!”
I have not turned away my eyes
From green of earth and hlu« of *2.108,
And I still hear, as once I heard,
The plash of stream and song of bhd;
The way seems smooth before my feet,
And still 1 dream life fair and swo»t;
Yet in the dusk these tears will flow,
I want you so! I want you so!
I’v* wished no other's laugh lees free.
No other’s heart less glad for me,
And 1 have turned with sudden fear
Lest man should mark the unshed tear
Ur note the quivering that came
When careless voices spoke vour name.
But where no footstep passes by,
.War, is it wrong to make tilts cry;
“Thank God, m-ariove, you can not know
i want you so! I want you so!

One of the most curious and almost
inexplicable accidents that have ever
occurred is one which happened re
cently to the Rev. Henry Newton, of
Union Point. He is a minister of tlie
1 Presbyterian Church, and is one of
| the oldest and most revered pastors in
its service, having charge of several
churches in the neighborhood of liis
homeat the Point. In simply passing
his right hand behind his back while
dressing he completely broke his arm
between the elbow and shoulder. He
suffered intensely, and after a consul
tation between liis resident physician
and surgeons from Augusta and At
lanta, his nrin was amputated at the
ilioulder a few days since, and at last
advices he was improving as well as
could be expected in one so advanced
in years.—Augusta Chronicle.

hade the boy good bye, with some en
couraging words, and turned to
wards Jonesboro, while the boy pro
ceeded on his way to Greenville. On
leaving the horseman the boy appear
ed wrapped in deep thought; then he
stopped, and raising his bend, said;
“I am goin^to be a man like him,”
and then, Ml if encouraged by his
resolution, he set out with quickened
steps for Greenville.
Three years later tlie horseman was
president of the United States. Thir
ty-nine years later tlie boy filled the
same office. Tlie horseman was An
drew Jackson and the boy was An
drew Johnson.

When Andrew Johnson reached
Greenville I10 hardly knew what to
do. He went to a tailor shop and
asked for work, having some knowl
edge of the trade, but the tailor need
ed no assistance, and Johnson turned
his t^^jRi#n elsewhere. He was not
a b<^P#!th much assurance, and was
in fact, rather bashful, so in* stood
around a gooil deal hoping for .some
tiling to turn up. At last tho,tailor
took pity 011 tlie friendless boy, and
seeing him standing opposite his store
one day, with a look of discourage
ment 011 his face, he went to him and
asked him to come over to the shop
and lie would help him. Johnson
quickly accepted tlie offer and went
to work.
Opposite the shop where Johnson
worked lived an Irish; woman with
three daughters. This woman was a
shoemaker, having learned the trade
from her husband and continued to
work at it after his death in order to
support aud educate her three chil
dren. Johnson became acquainted
with the family and married one of
the girls, who though possessing but a
limited education was fully capable of
instructing her husband, which she
did, teaching him to read, write and
cipher. While giving her lessons, her
husband would sit cross-legged nnd
work at his trade.
DEATH OF COL. JOHN T. GRANT.
He Passes Away Suddenly at 11
O’Clock Last Night.
Colonel John T. Grant died to-night
at 11 o'clock. He was taken suddenly
while at supper with weakness and a
sence of suffocation. His son, Cap
tain W. D. Grant at once went to
liis assistance anil with the help of a
servant removed him to his bed-room.
Dr. Alexander was summoned at once
and administered to Colonel Grant
with apparent relief. At about 10
o’clock paralysis set in and at fifteen
minutes to eleven he died as gently
as he ever fell asleep. Not even the
physician could at first detect that it
was death and not sleep. So passed
away this good man, full of good
deeds aad honor.

A Woman’# Letters.
Detroit Free Press.
There are only two olasses — business
letters and letters whicli are strictly
confidential.
SI10 seldom writes a business letter,
but when she does it is very short, oc
cupying about live lines on the page
of folio note paper.
It is usually very stilted, and the
reader feels as though she had, in
writing stood ten feet distant and
used a fishing-pole as a pen staff.
She confines herself striotly to the
rules of rhetoric, and commas, semico
lons, and periods are adjusted with
painful nicety.
She never forgets to name post-of
fices, county and State—wherein she
is ahead of a good many business men
—and subscribes her name with a pre-
cision that makes a man feel as
though sqiue one were filing a saw.
In all other correspondence the
characteristics of the business letters
are conspicuously absent.
She doesn’t trouble herself to think
when writing a confidential letter—
the action seems almost Involuntary.
She begins at the upper left-hand
corner of the first page, and the name
of the person addressed is usually pre
ceded by about four adjectives.
Line after line is written until the
third page of the last sheet is covered,
when the letter is closed and signed,
“Your own Lulu,” or “Your true
friend Nellie.”
Then she begins to thiuk!
There is something she has been dy
ing to tell—what Is it?
O, yes! and she adds a postscript.
After P, S. No, 2 has been added
the page is full, and, as if ia fear of a
strike at the paper mills, she econo
mizes by writing all around the mar
gin, and, turning the letter upside
down, she fills the blftnk spaces above
the headlines. ' She then overhauls it,
underscoring adjectives, supplying de
ficiencies, etc., and, after sealing the
enHbpe, possibly pate the stamp ac
cording to stamp-flirtation rules.
ABORIGINAL ANT1QPITIBS.
Relics of tho Indian# Who Inhabited
Newfoundland Hundreds of Years
Ago.
ftelicsof the extinct race of red In
dians who were the aboriginal inhabi
tants of Newfoundland, were recent
ly discovered on Pilley’s Island, Notre
Dame Hay. Very few remains of the
vanished race of Betbucks, or Boeth-
ies, have been preserved. There are
a few in private hands, and the New
foundland Museum contains a small
collection, including a skull anil a
skeleton, some arrow heads, axes,
gouges, and other stone implements.
In a recent excavation one of two
graves opened contained the skull of
an adult in an excellent state of pre
servation. It has the characteristics
of the skull of a savage, but is well
shaped and pretty well developed in
the intellectual region—one that
proves conclusively that the Betliucks
were by no means of a low type. In
the other grave a skeleton was found
which, with the exception of the
vertebrie of the neck, is perfect. It
apparently is the skeleton of a young
Boethie nine or ten years old. The
body had been wrapped in bircli
bark doubled together, laid on its
side, and covered with a heap of
stones. The form was perfectly pre
served when tlie wrappings of birch
bark were removed, anil it has some-
wliat the appearance of a mummy. In
addition there were several splendid
specimens of beautifully finished
stone arrowheads, hatchets, various
articles made from birch bark, such as
small models of canoes, drinking ves
sels, etc., and curiously-shaped bone
ornaments. ,

The Queen of Italy’s Necklace.
[Roman Letter for the Paris Figaro.]
Now, a word about the celebrated
coral necklace of the Queen of Italy.
It is a well knowu foot that she wears
it continually, and even on occasions
of grand toilette she carries it under a
river of sparkling diamonds. The
necklace has a history:
Five yearsago, the princeof Naples,
her son, heir apparent to the throne
of Italy, was strolling through a
street in Venice, when his eyes was
attrateted by the necklace in the
show window of a jeweler’s shop. The
idea at once struck him to buy it for
liis moth*#, tho Queen. But the price
was far beyond the capacity of his
pocket money, and though destined to
bo King Victor Emmanuel III, he was
compelled to ask the jeweler for credit.
Tlie bargain was that tlie Prince should
buy tlie necklace, pearl by peari, ac
cording as lie could save enough from
liis pocket money’. O11 leaving the
jeweler’s shop on the first occassion
tlie Prince carried away with him
live pearls, which he carefully guard
ed. It was two years before lie was
able to bnv tlie whole necklace.
When the Queen afterward learned
the secret of the purchase, she made
a resolve to wear this charming ex
hibition of her son’s love on all oc
casions, and hence she wears It every
day, and gives It a place even when
she wears her state jewels on great
occasions.
