On Saturday, (he -24th of Sentember. I walked out a short distance, from my dwelling, where i iny husband had been busily engaged du ring the day grindiug hi sugar cane. I became so much interested that I had al-. most forgottiu about- my little girl, who I had. spent -the day from home. Night fast approaching, 1 concluded i would walk on a short distance aud meet her." 1 did so, meeting her asiiort distance from my residence . . ' : '. As I turned my steps homewards, I heard the clattering of horses' "-i feet., T -looked arouud the road, and the fields were coveied with Yankees, . riding in great haste in the direction of my house, i quickened my step, knowing tbt they had robbed me last silmmer, while absent from home, of a great deal my clothing and my little child's, aod the most of my table ware. 1 walked iu great haste, and as I approached the house, oU the scene, can I ever forget ? There stood my hus band iu the midst, with his uplifted arm to catch the blows that; these demon likel faes so heartily enjoyed. I rushed to their money about as if they bad unlim his slide,- fearless of all" danger. I asked I ited credit 011 the Confederate Treasury, them why it was r that they were treating mfxamincr:: my husband ' so cruel a nannerj that-j he. was exempt from military duty .by law.

KAs I turned, the rufiiap deliberately shot ptij husband, who fell at my feet. - After the horrible affair was done, they J immediately placed out pickets, to arre'st any one who might aid the helplessness of my condition or Telieve my dying hus-. , band. v A.

A few days ago he made a descent upon ; a Yankee train at Burlington, Hampshire eounty, eleyen miles west of Romney, on the,Northwesteru turnpike road, captured eruhty wgons, (which he destroyed, with ' eont.cnts,) and brought out two hundred ami forty good'wagon horses. V . A Grand avalry ' Review .7 A con cs p;ndeiit.frotu the army of Northern Vir- jgiuia describes a review ol Stuarts caval j iy by General Lee. A grand review of ' two Divisions 4 Hampton's and m Fitzliugli Jice's of StjniTt's -cavalry, took place Thursday in alarge field near Brandy Station, t ho spectacle represented being nlorc iff pos ing,-than the review of infantry, had some time since at Orange Court-IIousc1 ven. Lee, as usual, first passed, aloDg in front and rear of the-extensive lines of horses aud ImcnPamFnich coniing back to ; the General's stand point, the two Divis ions passed in review before him, the men presenting a ood. appearance, and the horses, considering the service they have lately undergone looking rcmirka bly well. But the grandest feature of the day vaa still to come off, for iren'cral j Stuart desiring to s how the knowledge that this branch of our service ha4 gain. ; ed in their many encounters witli the en emy, ordered the column to pass a second tilne in front ."of. General Lee. As tho head of the column arrived within a civ- en space of the Mand point, a buulc was' sounded, and General Stuart "and staff, u"u wuu ms m oru tiiat wouiu nave !

A clue to the affair is, that he. is charged with living at the rate-of twenty thousand dollars a year on a small salary uothing Uiiusual these ac trmes. This is nothing. Tliere are quarter masters and clerks in Richmond,; whose salaries are but fifteen hundred doll irs, IU ing at the rates of fifty thousand dol lars a year.
