INTERESTING INCIDENTS.
Correspondence of the Charleston Courier.
Memphis, Tknx., April 16, 1862.
This war has given to history some of the
brightest and noblest instances of personal hero
ism that ever illuminated tho proud annals of a
nation.' There is a great spirit animating the
mass h spirit of pure, unselfish patriotism ; but
ihpre isa great stiU.which lives alonein the hearts
i f individuals ; which burns not less fn the souls
of ago, than throbs in the rbstless impulses of
youth spirit which speaks with a voice of
thunder amid the din of battla, and yet becomes
a Christain halo around the bed of suffering and
death. But alas ! the world does not always see
and recognise the inspiration until the honored
possessor has slipped the cables of life, and been
borne beyond the reach of everything but memo
ry and tears.
i ueo -inoiigrjis HTe-nE'E'estevr-bv btj mclSent
which was related to me by Dr. Keller, of this
city, concerning a lad fifteen years of age, named
Charlie Jackson, who was wounded in the recent
battle, and is now lying hopelessly at the point of
death.
Some months ago his father raised a company
in which Charlie was permitted to drill with the
privates, and finally became so expert in the
manual of arms that, young as he was, he was
chosen the drill-master. In due time, marching
rders were received. Then, the father consult
ing the age of Lis boy, and probably his own
paternal feelings, gave him to understand that it
was bis wish be would remain at home. To 'this
Charlie strenuously demurred, and plainly told
his parent that if he could not go with him, he
would join another company. Yielding to his
obstinacy, a sort of silent consent was given, and
the lad left Memphis with his comrades. . The
regiment to which they belonged was detached to
Burn8ville, several miles distant trotn Corinth,
and here it remained until the Friday or Satur
day preceding the battle. . Orders were then re
ceived that it should repair at once to the field
and take its position. Charlie was asleep at the
time of the departure, and the father, unwilling
that one so young ehould undergo the fatigues
xbf the long march of twenty miles, and the dan
gers of the coming fight, gave orders that he
should not be disturbed. Several hours after, the
bov awoke of his own accord.
At a glance, his eye tdbk in the condition of
affairs, and his knowledge of coming events satis
fied him of the cause. With him to think was tu
act. He seized his little gun a miniature mus
ket which his father had; made for him, and alone
started on the trail of hi absent regiment. Hour
after hour he trudged along,, and finally just as
they wece baking preparatory to going into bat
tle, he succeeded in joining his company. His
father chided him, but how could he do other
wise Jhan admire the ' indomitable spirit of his
boy. The battle commenced. Charlie took his
place by his father's side, and was soon in the
thickest of the figh'. A bullet struck him in the
body and torn an ugly wound. Still he pressed
on, firing, cheering and charging with the re
mainder of his regiment. He seemed not to
know the sensation of fear, and his youthful ex
ample on more than one occasion was the rally
iny point from which the men took freeh spirit.
Suddenly, at a late hour in the day, the little
follow fell shot through the leg a few inches be
low the hip. He gave a cheer and told his fath
er to goon. 'Don't Viind me;" said he, "but
keep on ; I'll lay here till you comeback."-' This
of course the feelings of the parent wodld not
permit him to do, and picking him up in bis arms
he carried bim Xo the nearest hospital. Within
a day or two Charlie was brought to his home in
Memphis, feeble, yet full of hope and courage.
Dr. Keller was called upon to examine the
wound, and, if necessary, to perform amputation ;
but at a glance his experienced eye saw that the
poor boy was beyond the hope of recovery. Mortifi
cation had set in, and an operation would only
increase his sufferings without prolonging life. -
The lad noticed,the sober countenance of tne phy
sician as he turned away, and went to an adjoin
ing room to break fine mournful intelligence to.
tho weening latner ana moioer. jwoining couia
he done, but to relieve him of pain by means of
oniates. A few moments afterwards he returned
to the bedside of the sufferer.when the young hero
abruDtlv met him with the-question
"Doctor, will you answeHrae a straightforward
Question, and tell me tho truth?"
"... .
The physician paused a moment, ana men
said; "Yes, Charlie, I will, but you must prepare
for bad news."
"Can 1 live?" was the response.
"No! Nothings can save you now but a miracle
from Heaven.'
'Well, I have thought so myself. I have felt
5 if f was eolns to die. Do lather and mother
know this?"
"Yf" renlied the sureeon. I have told
? I o
them."
"Please ask them to come in here."
"VVhen the parents had done so, and ta
ken their places on either aide of the bed, Charlie
reached out, grasped their bands in his, and
."Dear father and mother, Dr. Keller saya that
I can't live And now I want to ask your for
giveness for all wrong I have done. I have tri
ed to be a good boy in every way but one, and
that was when I disobeyed you both and joined
the army. I cculd'nt help that, for I felt as if
I ought to be right where you were, father, and
to fight aa long at I was able. I'm only sorry
that I ' ttst .boSk fc w x. If I r
said anything fwrong or done anything wrong
won't you forgive me?

'Nw, father," continued the boy, "One thing
more.1 Don't stay here with me, but go back to
camp. Mother will take care of me, and your
services are more necessary in your company than
than they are at home. I am not afraid to die,
ar.fl T wish I had a thousand lives to lose in the
same way. And, father, tell the boys when you

' i BY THE PRESIDENT.
To the People of the Confederate State of America ;
An enemy, Waging! war in a manner violative of
the usages of civilised nations, has invaded our coun
try. With presumptuous reliance on superior num
bers, he has, declared his purpose to reduoe us to sub
mission. We struggle to preserve our birthright of
constitutional freedom. Our. trust is in the justice of
our cause and the protection ofdeur God. Reoent
disaster hit j spread gloom over toe land, and sorrow
sits at the hearth stones of oar oountrymen ; but a
people conscious of rectitude and faithfully relying o
their Father in Heaven, may be cut down, but cau
not be dismayed. They may mourn the lost of the
martyrs whose lives jaave been sacrificed in their da
fence, but tbey reeeivo this dispensation of Divime
Providence with hamble submission and 'reverent
faith. And! new that oar hosts are again going forth
to battle, and loving; hearts at home are filled with
anxious sqljicitude for their safety, it is meet that the
whole people should turn imploringly to their Al
mighty Father and beseech His all-powerful protec
tion, -j :i
To this .end. I, JEFFERSON DAVIS. President
of the Confederate States of America, do issue this
my proclamation; inviting all the people to unite at
their several places of worship, on Friday, the 16th
day of the present month of May, in humble suppli
cation .to Almighty God that He will vouchsafe His
blessings on our ' beloved oountry ; that He will
strengthen i and 'protect our armies, that lie will
watch over-and preserve our people from the evil
machinatkms of oar enemies ; and that He will, in
his own gojod time, restore to us the blessing of peace
and security under Hit sheltering care.;;
