of the most thrilling incidents I ever

his life intoxicated, uud his boy met him
upon his doorstep clapping his hands, ex
claiming:
'apa's come home!"
Ho seized (he boy by the shoulder,

The minister said to me: "I could
give you his name if necessary. I spent
the night in the house. I Went out,

the hill. There was his child dead!

When he was answered in the affirma
tive, he turned his sunken eyes toward
the ceiling and gazed for a moment or
two us if in intense thought, then looked
at the friends about his bed aud said
softly:
"Very good, very good, it is all right."
Then turning to his heart-broken wife,
lie tried to comfort her. He told her
that there was much he desired to tell
er, but that he was too weak for the
undertaking.
Col. Pendleton, one of the officers of
nis staff, came into the room ub"Ut 1
clock. Gen. Jackson asked him:
"Who is preaching at the headquarters
today?"
When told in reply that the whole
rmy wus praying lor mm, nc replied:
Thank God! They ure very kind."
Then he added: "It is the Lord's day;
my wish is fulfilled. I have always de
sired to die on Suuday."
Slowly his mind begati to fail and wan
der, and he frequently talked iu his de
lirium as if in command of his army on
the field of battle, lie would give orders
o his aides iu the old way, and then the
iceno changed' He was at the mess-ta
ble in conversasiou with members ot his
staff; now with his wife and child; now
at prayers with his family. Occasional
inleivals of a return of his mind would
appear, and during one of them the phy
sician offered the dying man some brandy
and water, but he declined it, saying:
"It would only delay my departure
and do no good; I want to preserve my
mind to the last, if possible."
A few moments before the end ar
rived tho dvinu warrioi cried out in his
delirium :
"Order A. P. Hill lo prepare for ae
turn "rass the lnlanlrv to the Iront
rapidly!" "Tell Major Hawkes ,'
Then his voice was silent, und the sen
tence remained unfinished.
An instant later a smile of ineffable
sweetness and purity spread itself over
his calm, pale face, und then looking up
ward, aud slightly raising his hands, he
said quietly, and with an expression of
relief:
"Let us cmss over the river and rest
under the shade of the trees."
And then without a sign of a struggle
or of pain his spirit passed away.
Josh Thomas, au old toper of loug
standing and capacity, on being invited
by some of his boon companions to "take
a drink." replied, "Boys. I won't drink
without you take what I do." The (
"boys" were surprised.
"Take my drink, boys, and I am wilh
you."
They agreed, and ranged themselves
along the bar.
"Bartender," said he, "give mo a glass
of water."
"What? Wa-t-c-r?"
"Yes, water. It's a new drink to me,
boys, I admit, and it's a scarce article
arouDd here, I expect. But let me tell
you about it. A few days ago a party
of us went fishing. We took a fine
share of whisky along aud had a jolly time.
Along towards cveuing I got terribly
druuk and crawled off under a tree and
went to sleep. The boy s drauk up all the
whiskey and came back to town. They
thought it a good joko 'cause they left
me out there drunk and told it uround
the town with a big laugh. My son got
hold of the report and told it at home.
I lay under the tree all niglil,and when
I woko in the morning my wife sat right
there beside me. She said nothing when
I woke up, but turned her head away,
and I could sec she was a-crying. 'I
wish I had something to drink,' says I.
Then she took a cup she fetched with
her und went to a spriug that wus ncur
und brought it full.
"Jcstassho was handing it to me
she leant over to hide her eyes and I
saw a tear drop iutj the cup. I took
the cup and drank and raising my hand
to heaven I vowed, God helping me, I'd
never di ink my wife's tears again."
