John Augustus O'Shea, in his "Round
about Recollections," tells a story of Ale
tor Emmanuel, whom he describes as "a
squat Hercules ugly to such a degree
that his ugliness had the charm of the
unique."
One day while on a hunting expedition
in the Alps, he met an old woman gath
ing brambles. She inquired of the
stranger whether it was true, as she had
heard, that the King of Italy was in the
neighborhood. If so, was there any chance
of seeing him?
"Yes,"" said his majesty, "he is about.
Would you really like to see him?"
The old woman declared that few sights
would give her more pleasure.
"Well, mother, I am the King."
She stared at him .for a moment and
broke into a grin.
"Get out with you, jester! Do you
think a nice woman like the Queen would
marry a chap like you, with that hideous
mug?"
The King was not offended. Perhr.ps
the compliment to his wife mollified him.
He gave the woman a piece of money,
with which he is always free, aud passed

BILL AEFS LETTER.
He Discourses Upon- tlie OfiseryaHce ol
Jacison's- Day
And Eecounts Some of the Deeds of Val
lor of the Hero of New Orleans.
Just seventy-eight years ago t onlay,
(January eighth) there was fought
a memorable battle, the most ex
traordinary perhaps, that is recorded in the
'annals of all history. It was not a very great
battle.for there were only 18,000 men engaged.
It did not last but forty minutes.and yet its re
sults were wonderful, and their influence is felt
to this day, and will continue to be felt as long
as this government exists. If that b ittle had
been fought in old England or New England,
or in any other northern state of this Union, it
would have been celebrated in story and ix
song by orators and poets,and been alandmart
in history, a beacon light of courage and pa
triotism and generalship as bright and as en
during as Hohenlinden or Thermopvlxe or
Bunker's Hill. ,
But it was fought at New Orleans, away down
nouth in Dixie, by southern men, who were un
der the ban the ban of tolerating and defend
ing slavery the ban of being barbarians. Tbt
federalists of New England had opposed tin
war with England, and they gave only a reluc
tant praise to Jackson for his Victory, for the
feared that it would make him popular with
the masses who were fast settling up the west
cm states. And it did. The victory was a
amazing, bo unexpected. 6,000 southern men
armed with old-fashioned rifles, and unexperi
enced in modern warfare, pitted against 12,
000 Eoglich troops, the flower of Wellington'
army, that had just a few months before cor
quered Napoleon and retired him from Paris '
Elba; and yet these rough, untrained soldier
did. in forty minutes, kill 2,600 of tho enem
and put the rest to flight, and lost only eight
killed and thirteen wounded of their own side
AVhero does history record such a victory
There was no fooling about that business. Thoso
riflemen hadn't hunted bear and wolves and cat
amounts and shot squirrels' eyes out all their,
lives for nothing. Their fathers had fought
o!d England in the Revolution ry war, and the
sons had no love for tho Britishers. Wash
ington city, the capital of tho Union, was
then in the hands of the British, but these
southern patirots echoed Jackson's oath when
lie swore by the eternal they should not take
New Orleans. He had already driven them
from Penaacola and Mobile, and had scattertc
the Indians from hill and hollow and blown uj
a fort with 300 runaway negroes in it negroes
1 that the British were not only protecting, bu
1 were inciting to a merciless warfare upon th.
families of the absent soldiers.
; Wonderful man that Jackson, for he had to
fight foes without and foes within. There was
no telegraph to bring him orders from Wash
ington, and when the mail brought them in
, the old-fashioned stage he had already done
' what they forbade or what they commanded.
It made but little difference to him. He con
sidered his commission as major general in
command of the southern division, as a "carte
blanche" to do just as he pleased for the public
good and he did it. Ho was king aud auto
crat. General Winfield Scott reported him as
mutineer for not obeying orders, and he de-.
nounced Scott as a carrion-fed buzzard, am
then challenged him. He would fight anybodv
in defense of his own honor or that of a wo
iman. He never allowed any reputable woman
1 to be maligned in his presence, not even by t
: hint or a whisper. He broke up his cabinet be
cause Mr3. John C. Calhoun and Mrs. Berrien
refused to associate with Mrs. Eaton. He was
always 6low to believe charges against a woman.
Jackson was the first nullifier, for he absolute
ly refused to execute the mandates of the su
preme court unless they coincided with hv
views. When the state of Georgia refused to
recognizo the claims of the Indians within her
borders and was in open conflict with the fed
'eral government, Jackson withdrew tho troops
and swore by tho eternal that the red-handed,
blood-licking Indians should have no state
within a statol He had been fighting Indians
for years, and knew their treachery and their
brutality. But he was a great, big-hearted,
noble man a diamond in the rough. He
raced, he bet, he gambled, he Bwore and he
fought duels, he was always for the oppressed
and the helpless, and always the protector and
the defender of woman. Even if her hus
band was the oppressor, he sought
a quarrel with him about it,
and generally got satisfaction in some way.
What a will he had, and what a will power over
men even such men as Tom Benton and Cass
and Blair and Chief Justice Taney. Ho was
the first president who said turn the rascals out
and he turned them. From 1789 to 1829
there had been but seventy-four removals from
office, but Jackson turned out 2,000 the first
.year of his presidential service. Ho determined
to break up the United States bank, because he
said it was being used for plunder and political
purposes, and so he ordered McLean, the secre
tary of the treasury, to remove the deposits.
McLean declined. , So he removed McLean and
appointed Duane. At the last moment, Duane
declined because it was illegal. He removed
him and appointed Roger B. Tanev, and he re
moved them, and all the people said amen. Hi
declared afterwards that, if Taney had failec
him, he would have removed the deposits him
self, ne was as determined as Cromwell, when
he once made up his mind. He and Sam Hous
ton and Davy Crockett had fought together and
bunked together, and a hundred times imperiled
their lives in fighting Indians and Spaniards
and tho British, and they were all of the same
stripe and type, and had a measure of contempt,
for courts and laws and for the aristocracy o?t
wealth, ne put New Orleans under martial
law, and the judge fined him $5,000. He put
the judge in jail and kept on his course as
though nothing had happened. When Florida
belonged to Spain, and was occupied by lawless
people from different countries and disorder
was universal and hideous, Jackson wrote to
President Monroe for leave to go down there
and regulate tho concern. Ho didn't get a iu
ply and concluded it ought to be done anyhow,
notwithstanding that Spain owned the country,
and so he organized a little army of 2.500
southern men, and marched there and turned
the Spanish rascals out of their own offices in
San Augustine and St. Marks, and arrested
every outlaw and killed every hostile Indian b.y
could find and hung some Englishmen because
they couldn't give a good account of what the;
were doing and. within a year, Spain got
tired of demanding satisfaction for his out
rageous invasion and sold the state to the
United States government.
But this i3 enough of Jackson: He lived lonjr
and he lived much. His whole life wa3 markec
by truthfulness, integrity and courage. Ni
wonder that the good people of New Orleans
celebrate this day, and tlms hand down from
generation to generation the memory of one of
the most remarkable victories ever achieved.
I love to read about it and to contemplate it,
for it was all the heroism of southern people
people whose sons fought at Shiloh and Cor
inth and Yicksburg. And it is a comfort to
know that, although Jackson left no children,
yet the son of hi3 adopted son served in tha
confederate army, in which he was a colonel.
Now, let the boys read up Jackson and pon
der him, and avoid his errors and imitate his
virtues. It will. -ptrtrcps, surprise them to find
that tbis great battle was fought just two weeks
after peace had been made at Ghent, a city in
Belgium, but thera wa no telegraph or suIk
marine cable then to bring the news. If there
had been, then 2. C00 livs would have been
saved, and, perhaps. Jackson would have died
without becoming famous. It will bring a
glow to tneir soutnern prtnotram to Know mat
the men who fought under Jackson were the
fathers and grandfathers of the same men who,
only 700,000 strong, ail told, did for four long
year3 fight against 3,000,000 of tbeirfoes in the
late unhappy war. And the noithern toys who
are growing up ought to read it, and be proud
that they have such countrymen countrymen
who can be relied upon by our government
whenever we have a foreign foe to meet. One
thing moro to be remembered: That General
rakenhara, who was in command, was th
brother-in-law of the duke of Willington, and
the duke said he was the best general that h
had in the war against Napoleon. This Pakeu
ham was killed at New Orleans. Boys, think of
it and whenever you hear the yankees bra?,
ging, do you brag too. Bill Arp in Atlanlij
