Lee’s inva sion of Maryland, written by Gen. Longstreet. During the great battle of Sharpsburg, in which 37,000Confed- erates held their ground against 90,000 Federals, a singular incident occurred in which Gen. D. H. Hill was the principal participant. The writer ays: During the progress of the battle of Sharpsburg General Lee and 1 were riding along irfv line and l>. II. Mill’s when we received a report of movements of the enemy and started nthe ridge w> mklte a reconnois- s inee. (ifeneral Lab und T dismount ed, but Hill declined' to do so. i said to him, “If you insist bii riding up there and drawing the fire, give us t ittle interval so that we maw not. be in the line of the lire when they open upon you.” General Lee and I stood on the top of the crest with our glasses, looking at the movements of the Federals on the rear left. After a moment I turn ed my glass to the right and the Feil- e.al left. As I did so I noticed a puff of white smoke from the mouth of a cannon. “There is a shot for you,” I said to General Hill. The gunner was a mile away, and the cannon-shot came whisking through the air for three or four sec onds "nd took off the front legs of the horse that Hill sat on and let the animal down on his pegs. The horse's head was so low and his croup so high that Hill was in a most ludicrous po sition. With one foot in the stirrup he made several efforts to get the other leg over the croup, but failed. Finally we prevailed on him to try the other end of the horse and he got down. He had a third horse shot un der him before the close of the battle. That was the second best shot I ever saw. The best was at Yorktowon. There a Federal officer came out in front of our line, and sitting down to his little platting table began to make a map. One of our officers carefully sighted a gun, touched it off, anil dropped a shell into the hands of the man at the little table. W anted. A POSITION as a Pre-oription Clerk, in .a drug store.

MoKay. On Tuesday last in the Supreme Court, the committee appointed to prepare suitable memorial resolu tions in memory of the late Judge McKay informed the court they were ready to report and ex-Judge Robert P. Trippe, a former judge of that Court and Chairman of that commit tee submitted the report. We note that Judge McKay was a native of Pennsylvania, and was born Jan. 8tli, 1820. The report is too long for pub lication but we quote one sentence which conveys much in few words, viz: “The wise judge and learned lawyer possessed a heart as gentle as a woman’s—affectionate, generous, liberal.” The Macon Telegraph from which wo gather the foregoing, says: This memorial is signed by the com mittee, It. P. Trippe, chairman; It. F. Lyon, Joseph E. Brown, O. A. Loch- rane, W. W. Montgomery, A. M. Speer, R. H. Clark, J. W. H. Under wood, B. F. Abbott. Judge Trippe, who had been a close friend of the deceased, and intimate ly associated with him as an associate justice on the Supreme bench, anil subsequently as a law partner, read a brief but most pathetic address, in which he referred to Judge McKay as his friend and the attachment that existed between them. Judge It. H. Clarke, of the Stone Mountain circuit, followed him in u eulogy of the life and character of the deceased, which was eloquent, scholarly and striking to a degree. He read from manuscript, and per haps no liner address has ever been made in the Supreme Court room, Its great length prevents its publica tion here. Chief Justice Bleckley responded for the court and paid’ a high and earnest tribute to the deceased, whom he termed a great and good man, saying that there is nothing greater in this life than a good man or a good woman. He ordered that the memorial be spread on the minutes of the court and a copy forwarded to the family of tho deceased. Legaffiblanks for sale at tills offlee. Washington Letter, From Our Regular Correspondent. Washington, Jan. 81, 1887. Editor Union-Recorder: The toilers on Capitol Hill confront ed various questions during the past week, some of whioh were impor tant, while others were not so. A- mong them were the fisheries trouble witti Canada; woman suffrage; pen sions; the bill establishing Agricultu ral Experiment Stations; the bill pre venting members of CongresB from acting us attorneys for corporations with which Congress has important dealings; the Pleuro-Pneumonia bill; the River and Harbor bill, anil sever al of the other regular appropriation bills. The Woman Suffrage Association, which has just closed its nineteenth annual convention in this city, saw the Senate Temorsely vote down their proposed suffrage amendment to the Constitution. But sixteen Senators voted in favor of the ladies, anil that was a great victory for them. They have repeatedly seen both houses of Congress vote against the considera tion of the proposed amendment, but this wns the iirst time they over hail u vote on the amendment, itself. A committee of twelve ladies, alt prominent in the suffrage movement, called at the White House to present to tbk President a v.rLttnh ]Ujptgst against that portion n'lho Utah bill whiqh disfranchises the> gentile \Vb- men of Utah. The Mormons lire 'ffl- r*affy fclitffrdncljimd, mule And 1 female. The 1'reSuUmt rifAeived the ladies graciously, anil spoke n few word* t'o each ns she wuW introduced to Imn. Several of thorn made short arguments in luvor of tho rights of Utah women to whil they had been allowed to ex ercise fot.iB teen 'years— tho franchise —and urged t lie President to veto the bill if itpa.-sesus it bow reads. Mr. Cleveland ‘listened attentively, prom ised to give tho uiattnr careful at ten tion, and said ho had supposed the women qf Utah did not. cure to vote and did not vote, when they lutil a chance. He shook hands with each lady again at parting, mid after they had been shown through tho suite of parlors, the committee left the house much pleased with the cordial manner of the Chief Magistrate. Ifc looks as if there is really to be a change in the Cabinet soon, and that two of the best officials in the Treasu ry are to become president and vice- president of the new National Bank in New York. I refer to the Seere tary of thiTTreasury and to the U. S. Treasurer, Mr. Jordan. Mr. Manning declines to say anything regarding the matter, but it is generally believ ed that he will offer his resignation to take eifeot soon after the adjourn ment of Congress. The contemplated retirement of Treasurer Jordan at that time is openly acknowledged. While the President is compelled to regret parting with these officers, he is quoted as saying that he did not like to assume the responsibility of standing in the way of what lie re garded as their self-interest. The sal ary of Mr. Manning's new office will be $20,000—more than twice that of a Cabinet officer, and the position will not require the continual strain nec essary to fill the office of Secretary of the Treasury. Besides the President and the Secretary’s friends ure con stantly fearful that his health will again succumb to bis present onerous duties ! “ 1 . . ' ’ , ii'V* There is a clear case for a veto in the drag-net pension bill which lias passed the House und the Senate and now goes to' the President. It pro vides that nil persons who served three months or more in the military or naval service of the United States in any war, shall he pensioned at the rate of $12 per month if they are una ble to earn a support because of phys ical or mental disability. “Anything to spend the surplus” appears to he the motto of the Republicans of both branches of Congress. This measure, wuicli was rushed through the Sen- atejwithout a roll-call, virtually cre ates an annex to the Pension Bureau because it offers gratuities to “dis abled” ex-soldiers, without regard to i any connection between their service in the army and their present disabil ' ifcy. | The bill would tuke unknown mil- j lions out of the Treasury if it became a law, for it also provides at tho rate of $12 per month for the dependent i relatives of soldiers who are not able I to provide for them. This would be | converting the Federal Government into an institution for dispensing “out i door relief,” and encouraging sliift- I lessness among a class that might otlv- i erwise be self-supporting.

Joseph Kirby, of the Salt Lake Tri bune, who represents the anti-Mor mon press of Utah, believes in the alldgwl resurrection of Brigham Young. That is, he says the burial of the prophet was a fraud. He states that before the so-called death of the great Mormon a French model er in wax sojourned for a long tune in the house of the prophet, and made an excellent wax figure of Young. That the wax figure was buried as the body of Young, and that a twenty ton stone was placed on the “remiunH to prevent any tampering with the corpse. Two years later the It rench- man who had returned to Paris ex posed the fraud. The apostles of the church always insisted that Young would come to life, and were so con fident that the Gentiles of Utah be came convinced that theFrenchumn s story was true.

She is 24, and has been flattered and com plimented, ahd with the slightest encouragement might tfow have been a loving wifA.

That the ef fect upou both sexes is demoralizing is equally apparent. I know scores of young men with brains and educa tion who shun society and the fash ionable young women for the reason, that they well know that marriage cannot be thought of until much later in life with women in her sphere, and to follow in her wake an admiring, swain is a thankless and costly task, fraught with more vexation than pleasure. The result is that in most large cities there are coteries of young men—and usually the best ones, too —who live rather fast lives, and in consequence when they do marry, at a late day, are unfit to be husbands and fathers. I know scores of young men who would be Willing to marry— and in many cases it would be their salvation—could they find young wo men of equal social attainments who would brave the struggle with them. The lives of most of these young men can be boiled down as follows: _ A more or less—according to disposition —gay bachelor life, and, if not wreck ed by the wayside, when they get fat, flabby, and bald, a brilliant wedding witli an ambitious bud, a short honey moon, mutual disgust, big funeral, in teresting voung widow—tra la.— “Lone Bachelor,” in Boston Globe.
