Popular Science Mntl,l V ' The Great Soldiers Death. In the May number of The Blue and The Cray Colonel William (J. Elaui gives the following interesting and rath'T re markable war renascence: Kvery 00 Friday, May, 1, lHii:!, Wool folk's battery broke camp ami moved In the plank road running from Fredericks burg through the Wilderness. I'p this road (and on each side of it, as best they could be) llic guns were carried to meet a line of Federal infantry having one or more pieces of artillery, drape-shot fell thick and fast mingled with bulcts and to the men with Woolfolk's gun, on the road, the missiles on the plan'.s sounded like a hail storm. This gun, un limbered and ready to return tnc hostile fire, had not delivered a shot, when, sud denly, General "Stonewall" Jackson rode up an stopped al the side of it. At that mo ment No. 0 of the gun was still laboring in vaiu to loosen the jammed aniniunition in his limber chest, and ho clambered 1 n top of the cheat amidst a shower of balls, to make a more desperate tug-a tug which which was at last successful. It had seemed a very long time, however, to nil present, before the ammunition was io( out and served; but all the while "Stonewall" Jackson sat there on 1 is horse, patient and he still sat there until the gun, firing shell and spherical case, had caused the Federals to fall back hurriedly, leaving a large pile of knap sacks, overcoats, and blankets at the roadside, together will) some killed and wounded. For the lirst lust nud only lime the battery Was then under the command of the famous soldier whom Lee eslectuid as his "light hand"; and next day (Saturday, May 2 lSlh!.)it accompaniid It is dow in the Possession of a Durham County Lady. Souo time ago we read an account of a biscuit down in Georgia that was brought out of the last war and was still in a good slate of preservation. That w as the oldest piece of bread we had heard ol up to this time; but I'u:ham county can beat it by pos-ibly lid years. In au uncle of J. II. Wood, of this city, Samuel Wood, then living in Orange county, had a very sick child, and to please the little svfl'ercr, they baked lor her an obhiug biscuit, which she did not eat but used it as a plaything. In this way she made several indentions iu il with her teeth. The child never recovered from this spell of sickness, and after her death the home made bread toy was preserved by her mother. and was always held saered iu the family as a memento of llic departed one. Mr. Samuel Woods and his family removed to Alabama and made their retjJcnce in that State. The family in after years became separated, and that bi.-euit is now in the possession of a relative of Samuel Woods, Mrs. Martha B Hall, who lives in the Flat River section in ihe uorlheru part of this county. The Biscuit is slill well preserved nud the teeth prints arc still on it just as the child made them sixty-five years ago. Mr. J. II. Woods tells us that he first eauic into possession of these facts a short lime ago, the incident, he having heard of iu his youuger days, had almost passed out of his memory until recalled by a relative.

CLEVELAND, A Curiosity Seeker's Chase After the President's Wife. him on his flank movement through the Wilderness, south of ihe plank road to the point where he struck Hookers unprepared and unsuspecting troop--. The battery had completed the circuit and crossed lo the north of ihe plank road, where it faced east, and was ordeted to halt. The sun was just setting and li e battle had not begun, although time were a few dropping shots as the Confederate infantry and artillery mocd down bplli the river road toad and tho plank road. Behind Wool folk's halted battery were "Stonewall" Jackson, his chief of artillery, I'o'.ot.el Clutch field, and others of his tariff, in a mounted, silent and expectant group. The artillerymen stood or lay upon the ground in silence. It was a curious and solemn moment, and the momentary stillness enhanced the awe of the ocoasiou. It was then that one of Woolfolk's men, stretched on his back, with his blanket and knapsack uuder his head, called attention to a striking spectacle in the sky. The northern half of the heavens seemed brilliantly lighted up; the southern half was overcast with gloom An apparent, well defined, straight line seemed to run directly Kattanil West. For a few moments everybody gaz:d and won dered, until some one looked, to ihe West a,cd pointed out 'VJt 'he phenomenon was caused by a cloud, black as night, which, with a sharp and perpendicular edge, completely obscured the southern half of that luminary, leaving the north ern northern half of all die more bril liant by contrast.

That night, as they were slill engaged in succoriog the Federal wounded that lay thick upon the half-won field, Wool- folk s men heard a Midden rattle of musketry. Next day (Sunday), not stonewall Jackson, but anothei general was in command when (he battle was re newed, and then it was sadly spread abroad that the missing hero had been wounded in that midnight fusillade; and some days after, all wept to hear that he was dead. 1 Ilea some recalled the sceoo in the skies and the tight began, and more than one survivor piously le lieves today that it was an omen of the great soldiers death.

A day or two ago a bovy of school girls joined llic waiting group on the por tico, and when Mrs. Cleveland came out she was obliged to lun the gauntlet. When she returned, an hour or two Inter, a funny thing happened. A well dressed, good looking, middle aged woman, evi dently a stranger in the city, was passing the street gate when a carriage tumed into the circular drive of the White House grounds.

Mr. Preece then went on to say that "strange, mysterious suunJs" are heard on all long telephone lines when the earth is used as 11 return, especially in the calm stillness of the night. "Earth currents," said he, "arc I'ouud in telegraph circuits, aud the aurora boroalis: lights up our northern sky when the sun's photosphere is dis turbed by spots.

Was this an effort e.f the inhabitants ol Mais tu attract the atlentiou of those on earth? Sueh had been the opinion of Flani inarion, who had argued in favor of Earth signalling back with a triangle of lights thirty miles across. It was shown that the conditions of Mars were more nearly those of Earth than of any other plauet.
